Sorry that took so long to update. I finally have gotten a break from school so yeah. I got a review saying that Airreon/Arcee was too powerful. Do ya'll agree with that? Do you think I should tune her down some or just keep writing anyway I want and that my story is fine the way it is? Please review or send me a private message with those responses. Also special shout out to

BERTHING AREA 3RD PERSON POINT OF VIEW
Sideswipe's eyes dimmed and flickered before all color returned, but in a more deep periwinkle color. Exhaust started smoking from his audio receptors. All that went through his CPU was to kill the young yellow and black mech, who probably tried to touch her, and take Airreon for himself where they would be safe; though he knew she couldn't be won or taken.
What am I thinking? Sideswipe thought. They are my friends no? But then why do I feel this way?
He stormed out of the berthing area and started walking.
Arcee picked herself up and got herself together and moved out in her bipedal form to catch up with Sideswipe without a word to Bumblebee; her mind was too cluttered to care.
"Sideswipe!" she called after him, grabbing at the heavy armor on his shoulder plate when she caught up. She gently thrust him around so that he faced her. "Umm hi…"
"What the HELL was THAT?!" he yelled pointing down the hall toward where Bumblebee was.
"Well Sides, it wasn't what you think it was. The Bumblebee's fleshlings wanted to teach us how to dance and I kind of fell into recharge afterward and…." Arcee looked up at him and could tell he didn't believe her. "WE DIDN'T INTERPHASE !" Airreon exclaimed her optics lighting up.
Sideswipe cringed and backed up until her eyes dimed back down to reveal she was leaking energon tears.
"Arcee…" Sides said sympathetically, his optics automatically returning to their softer brighter blue color. He grabbed her right servo, "I didn't mean…listen I just don't wasn't him or any other 'ladies man' as Sam calls them, hurting you or prying through your wires and under armor. I'm your friend. I care."
"I know" she responded pulling him in for a hug. Now you see, Cybertronians don't hug that often as humans do, but being around the humans Sam and Carly Arcee picked up the habit. So she forgot that hugging was an intimate gesture. Sideswipe didn't though.
"Life is so much better now but still so stressful," she mumbled into him.
"Well Megatron is still out there and you learning to control you powers to stop him won't be easy like some think," Sideswipe said pushing her away to look into her optics.
Arcee shifted uncomfortably at his actions, with Sideswipe still holding on to her and such. "So…you want to go for a drive or something. Me and Bee have to tell you something important and…." She paused feeling Sideswipe pushing her chassis closer to the point where she could feel him ventilating. He was aslo slipping his fingers in the seams of her armor.
"Ahh! w-what are you doing?" she shrieked pushing him back with a blast from her smallest blaster. "I thought that you knew I was with Bee like in a relationship! I though you didn't want that! I thought that we were friends and you cared," Airreon said backing up.
"Oh I am so sorry Prime! I didn't mean it I was," he was cut off my Arcee transforming and zooming off. "I CAN EXPLAIN I Promise," he called after her but eventually gave up. "Don't go," he whispered to himself somberly.
Off in the distance Sunny chuckled. He had seen the whole thing. He had been trying to find his brother when he stumbled across the scene. He had seen everything from Sideswipe flipping out after he opened Bumble's door, to Arcee running out, to the move Sideswipe put on Airreon.
"Oh I cannot wait to tell the others," he said to himself deviously taking off before his brother noticed him.
ARCEE'S POINT OF VIEW
I zoomed to the lounge as fast as I could.
Maybe I was sending mixed messages? Oh I don't know! I feel as confused and jacked up as Samuel when he found out his car was Bumblebee. I quickly smiled inwardly thinking about it taking my attention momentarily off where I was going therefore almost running into Mirage.
"Whoa there little lady," he said courteously as ever.
I skid to a stop transforming quickly as well and turned to Mirage. "Oh I am so sorry," I exclaimed obvious worry on my face.
"Its fine Airreon, actually it's a good thing I ran into you. You are wanted in a meeting in hanger 6. Its right down the hall, the second left after you go through the lounge," he told me.
"Are you sure that they want me in a meeting?" I asked the kind red mech. Not only was I still young and inexperienced, but I was a femme. My dad rarely tried to get us involved in that kind of stuff.
"I am as sure of it as I am sure you are Optimus' daughter," he responded with a grin.
I giggled, "Okay well thanks," I told him. He nodded and I walked slowly toward the lounge.
"Arcee!" Chromia yelled with excitement, "where were you this morning? It's really unlike you to not be up in the morning! Oh well! I have to tell you some stuff, you know about my new relationship, and I have everything planned out for today! First we will…"
I cut her off, "Umm I have a meeting to go to," I said pointing to hanger 6.
"Really? Like the same one Ironhide had to go to?" she asked and I nodded, "Ugh fine but we are hanging out later today got it?" she asked a gleam in her optic and a smirk on her face.
"Fine but I really got to go. Can you get me a cup of energon?" I asked my best friend.
"Sure thing!" she responded joyously. Damn that girl was happy and talkative this morning.
"Okay I will be back to claim that soon," I said walking off to my first meeting, my heavy feet making clanging sounds as I walked to the appropriate hanger. I turned to look at Chromia one more time. She gave me the thumbs up and I went in, energon pumping fast with my nervousness.
3RD PERSON POINT OF VIEW
Just then Sunstreaker comes zooming in. "You guys have no idea what I am about to tell you but it will blow your mind!" He exclaimed grinning deviously.
"What? What? What?" The twins Skids and Mudflap said excitedly. Sunstreaker had obviously gotten their attention but not just them, but every other bot in the room as well.
"Well don't tell Optimus Prime or Elita One but Arcee is getting some from both my brother Sideswipe and Bumblebee!" He said almost jumping out of his armor.
"No! You're joking right?" Chromia asked quite intrigued.
"No I am not but let me explain," Sunny started in.
IN HANGER 6 OPTIMUS PRIME'S POINT OF VIEW
I felt at home on planet Earth really from day one, but it was still awkward to tower over the indigenous life forms, humans, even when they try to get to my level. My optics followed Major Lennox and Sergeant Epps as they walked across the platform to the other humans waiting for the meeting to start. Humans were some of my favorite species, even though they didn't have high patience levels, they had bravery and courage and among my favorite were Lennox and Epps. They didn't care that we were 30 foot tall alien robots only if we had a good shot, like true warriors.
My thoughts were interrupted by Ratchet, my medic, who tapped me on the metal plating of my arm. I turned to him and he pointed at the door. "Ah, so glad you could join us Airreon," I said watching my daughter walk in causally, though I could tell she was a little bit uncomfortable.
"Hello father," she responded bowing in a mocking way. Even when she was snarky she was the most beautiful thing I have ever laid my optics upon. Me and Elita really created a master piece. I would've been crushed if Megatron had gotten her or if they'd never returned to Earth for me.
"Why so formal today?" I asked her with what some of my Autobots called a 'Prime grin' since it wasn't really a full smile.
"I could ask you the same thing," she said walking up next to Ironhide and Ratchet. Since her upgrade she had really gotten a lot taller and was almost their size. Almost.
Ironhide welcomed her by rubbing her helm and Ratchet embraced her shoulder. Their fatherly actions did not surprise me but I was surprised that some of the younger mechs hadn't taken interest in her. Some almost seemed to avoid her. Well I guess it is because if they want to deal with her they have to deal with me first.
"Care to introduce?" Sergeant Epps asked. This didn't surprise me. The femmes on the NEST base were often considered exotic to the humans. The humans rarely saw them and while they knew I had a sparkmate they definitely didn't know I had a daughter.
"Oh yes, sorry. This is Airreon Prime One, the daughter of Elita One and myself; Optimus Prime," I said a great sense of pride filling my inner workings and wiring.
"Not to be rude sir, but why is she here again?" Ratchet asked.
"She is here because she is need. We need all the strong willed bots with a good sense of direction. But really we are all here to discuss the recent activity of the Decepticons," I told them.
"Well that's the problem Optimus. Since your recent, yet undocumented, fight with Megatron and his minions we have lost all sign of them," Lennox claimed.
"Yes I understand that, and though I believe they are definitely still nearby, this is why I gathered you all here today," I said.
"What do ya mean Optimus?" My weapons specialist Ironhide asked me.
"Well there is good reason to believe that while hurt from our last battle that they are strategizing for a next attack. We need to collect some Intel so that we can create scout and attack groups," I answered.
"So why am I here again?" My daughter asked her sweet voice ringing in my audio receptors.
"Well I thought that you could help us with Intel if you so choose. My daughter you are way smarter than you come off," I paused to look at her. She had a questioning look on her face plates. "Anyway I presume that you could also lead a scouting group of our younger warriors."
"You bet!" She said enthusiastically.
"Well then along with your training with Elita, if you don't mind Sergeant Epps, could you fill her in on what we know so far, on everything really, and teach her human relations?" I asked turning to Sergeant Epps.
"Sure thing Optimus, I would be honored to work with your daughter," he responded with Major Lennox embracing his shoulder and the other human congratulating him.
"Good then if you two wish to be you are excused from the meeting to go ahead and start. Ratchet, Ironhide, Major Lennox and I can finish up the meeting by ourselves," I told my daughter and Epps.
"Sure thing Daddy thanks," Airreon said excitedly skipping out the door.
"Hey wait up!" Epps called after her running down the platform to catch-up with her.
I chuckled at the sight before returning to the meeting.
ARCEE'S POINT OF VIEW
Sergeant Epps was a weird guy, but not in a bad way. He had a gruff look to him but I could tell he was a real sweet guy. His military get up would be intimidating to other fleshlings however. It was big and bulky with about 10,000 pockets. He had a holster for a smaller pistol but again I could tell that he is used to caring 'big' guns. His skin tone was darker than Sam's, not that I really cared. What I loved about him was that he treated me like one of his own verses like a 30 foot alien robot.
As I walked into the lounge I noticed everyone looking at me weirdly. Even Chromia!
"Hey Chromia what's up," I said walking toward her. She looked down at the ground and refused to look me in the optic. "You have my energon?" I asked. She shook her head and without looking up to me turned away and walked toward Skids and Mudflap. Even those two had a hard time looking at me.
Bumblebee was standing in the door way a desperate look on his face. "What's going on? What's wrong?" I asked him.
He reached out for me when my mother walked up from the hall and greeted me. "Ah Airreon, come for you training. You too Sergeant Epps," She said leading me off. I turned to look at Bumblebee one more time.
LATER 3RD PERSON POINT OF VIEW
"Wow Arcee how are you and your mother so powerful and so in sink!? I have never seen a power that creates such a beautiful yet con kicking light," Epps said to a proud Arcee.
"Aww I'm flattered. But I still have a lot of work to do before I fully master it," She told him getting a look from Epps. "Seriously! What I want to know is how someone your height and strength took down a full sized Decepticreep!" She exclaimed. The two were really starting to become good friends. By only a few cycles he was riding on the area between her shoulder plating and neck wires and the two were laughing. It wasn't a connection like Sam and Bumblebee had but it was a big step for Airreon.
"Meh, It's not about size," he responded to her.
"Yes I know," Arcee answered back.
"Yeah I know you know. Man you Primes are like all knowing," he told her earning a giggle.
"Hey blame that on Primus," she said.
As Arcee walked into the lounge again this time all the bots including both Ratchet and Ironhide were staring at her, Chromia seemed to be hugging Ironhide protectively.
Arcee spun around in circles looking for Bumblebee when Sideswipe walked up. "Arcee I need to talk to you, like right now," he said looking around nervously.
She looked at Epps who nodded in a 'go ahead' gesture and she put him down on the ground gently. "Come with me," she said pointing outside.
She leaned up against a wall facing the sunset and Sides did something similar before finally getting the nerve to talk "Listen I am sorry for what happened earlier but…." He was quickly cut off by Arcee.
"No its okay, I forgive you. I was sending mixed messages. You will make a great mech for some femme one day and I promise more will arrive in the future. Just were not right for each other," she told him sympathetically and patting him on the shoulder.
"Thank you for forgiving me and I am so sorry I know what I did was wrong, but Airreon that's not what I wanted to tell you," he responded.
"Oh really?" She asked inquisitively.
"Yes, I am sure that by now you have noticed the other bots starring at you," he started in.
"Yeah it's kind of freaking me out," she admitted.
"Yeah well they think you are in a sexual relationship with both me and Bumblebee," he said looking at her shocked face before continuing. "I don't know who spread that rumor but it wasn't me and I presume it wasn't Bee either."
"What!" Airreon Exclaimed shocked.
AWW HELL NO! Shit is going down now she thought.
AGAIN I AM SOOOO SORRY THAT TOOK TOO LONG. THIS IS KIND OF A DRAMA CHAPTER, AND IM NOT THAT BIG INTO DRAMA. THE NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE MAINLY AIRREON ALONE AND WILL HAVE A GOOD AMOUNT OF ACTION. I HAVE ALREADY STARTED TO WRITE IT SO IT SHOULD COME SOON. LOVE YOU GUYS AND KEEP REVIEWING
