Chapter 2

Meanwhile…

'Optimus, I am getting a distress signal from the Alps. Origin is unclear.' said Ratchet from behind the communication panel. Optimus walked up to Ratchet to get a closer look at the communication panel.

'Could be a decepticon trick.' Arcee folded her arms over her chest. Bumblebee made some complaining buzzes and clicks.

'Yeah, you're right, bee. What if it is an autobot?' Bulkhead gave the yellow bot a friendly punch.

'Ratchet, ready the ground bridge. The rest of us-.'

'Optimus.' Ratchet interfered him. 'There is also a small energon deposit, near the crash site. Could it be?'

'We don't know, old friend. There is a change that he or she was in need of energon. But we must not look over the fact that the autobot or decepticon walks around on unknown territory. And we all know how frightening that can be. '

'How cool is this!' miko was jumping up and down the couch and giggling like the schoolgirl that she was. 'A new bot! We haven't had a new bot since Wheeljack.'

'It could also be a decepticon.' Jack's comment snapped miko back to reality. She folded her arms over her chest.

'Do you always have to be a party pooper?'

'Wha-.' Jack bit back his comeback and sighed annoyed while rolling with his eyes.

'Can we get back to the subject, please?' Arcee looked down and the children stopped their bickering.

The autobots continued to make a plan.

'Then it is settled.' Optimus said as he looked at the faces of his friends; his family. He turned to Raphael, who sat behind his laptop, and said: 'Raphael, ready the ground bridge.' Raphael stuck his thumb in the air and the green whirling vortex appeared.

'The rest of us. Transform and roll out.' The crew transformed and drove through the bridge.

After a few seconds the autobots came out the vortex with their guns out.

'Clear.' Bulkhead put away his guns. The others quickly took his example.

'I don't see anything.' Arcee walked away from the others, trying to find a hit of destruction.

The group walked further until Bumblebee crashed against something and fell on the ground while making painful beeps. 'What was that?!' he beeped.

Ratchet placed his hands carefully on the invisible surface noticing how smooch it was. 'It's a spaceship!' he recalled in surprise.

'We do not yet know if it's from autobot or decepticon origin. So act cautious,' One of Optimus' guns reappeared as he walked along the spaceship with one hand on the surface; trying to find the entrance of the ship.

Arcee investigated the ground and saw wheel tracks. 'Optimus, these tracks are leading south from here.'

Optimus nodded: 'Bulkhead. Bumblebee. Ratchet, see if you can find any other traces of the owner of this ship. It's cloaked so that means he or she may have fled in any other direction. Do not engage unless your life is in jeopardy.'

Bumblebee, Ratchet and Bulkhead transformed and followed the tracks. Optimus strolled around the vehicle until the surface disappeared from underneath his hand. 'I have found the entrance of the ship.'

Optimus went inside and deactivated the cloaking device. The ship appeared and Arcee, who was still outside, gasped at its ruins. 'Who ever escaped from here must have a lot of injuries.' She said to everyone through the com. Bumblebee replied in his usual beeps and clicks.

'We have found the wings of the aircraft, but no signs of life. Well, except for the humans driving on the road beneath us.'

'Tracks continue west from the edge here, so we'll drive to where the energon is. Changes are more likely to fine cybertronian life there than here.' Bulkhead said through the com.

'We will meet you there shortly.' Optimus said.

Bulkhead, Ratchet and Bumblebee drove and ended up under the cliff from where the spaceship laid. The few vehicons who were working there stopped with their activities and looked at the intruders.

'Oh scrap.' Bulkhead immediately transformed his hands into a wrecking ball.

I heard guns firing and metal crushing as I woke up from my slumber. I looked down at the base of the cliff and saw four vehicons fighting two unfamiliar autobots. The last autobot that was lying on the ground was so identifiable to me.

'Ratchet… the autobot medic.' I murmured. A vehicon moved slowly towards Ratchet and I didn't need 5 seconds to know what that decepticon was about to do to him.

I quickly transformed into my vehicle mode and drove to where the cliff came down. I rode as fast as I could in my physical state as I saw the distance between the two bots closing in. I increased my speed when I saw the decepticon firing up his handgun. With a few meters ground to cover, I transformed back, got my guan dao from my back and jumped in front of the vehicon's line of fire. Making sure that he wouldn't hit my spark first, I turned my back to him and bend over to act as a shield. A gunshot. Pain flooded through my systems and my sight became blurry. With my optics closed and all the power I had left, I swung my weapon with all my might backwards. The decepticon was cut in half. I turned around and ran towards my next victim. My legs were wobbling and I fell on the ground. The remaining decepticons gave up their fight with the other two bots and ran to meet me in battle. I got up, swung my guan dao over my head and was about to cut the head off from the decepticon who was right in front of me when he suddenly fell at my feet; without my doing. I looked up and couldn't believe my optics.

There he was. Leader of the autobots. Last of the Primes. With his gun firing at the other decepticons while jumping down from the cliff where I came from. What were the chances that I would meet him here? My legs gave up and I fell on my knees. The remaining decepticons transformed and fled into the blue sky. Optimus Prime and the smaller femme walked over to their comrades. Warmth touched my shoulder. I looked at my right and I saw Ratchet bending to make optic contact.

'Saberquake.' My name sounded as a relieved breath of air. I turned my sight to the legendary warrior who was just a few meters away from me. Staring at me. Like I was the most intriguing thing in the whole universe. My eyes wandered his incredible figure and my optic met his. One nanoklik later his chest began to light up in a bright blue colour. Blinding me. My arms, which were supporting me the whole time, gave up. Same for my vision.

This was the second time to lose consciousness in one mega-cycle.

Bleep… Bleep… Bleep. A satisfying sound echoed through my audio receptors. The sound of a strong spark. My vision was still blurry when I opened my optics. My wounds were sealed. I slowly sat up as I was recalibrating my optics due to the fierce light hanging on the ceiling. The room was small, but it was big enough for a berth. I walked to the door and pushed the black round button which was located at the left. The door rolled itself up at the top and I glanced both left and right, scouting for enemies. When I just turned left to investigate, I heard mumbling from the right. I turned around and followed the sound of whispers. Ratchet's voice was the only one that I recognised. I took a peek around the corner at the end of the hallway.

'So, you're saying that, this femme, has some mystical powers?' shouted the small femme. I pressed myself against the wall, shocked by the sudden powerful shout of the femme.

'That is, in fact, not what I'm saying, Arcee.' Ratchet responded grumpy.

'Then explain to my why the Matrix of Leadership started to glow, as soon as Optimus saw her!'

Ratchet looked away and answered in with a soft tone: 'I don't know, you'll have to wait for Optimus. He must have his explanation for all this.'

'Where is the boss anyway?' the big green bot asked.

'He went to check up on the patient.' Ratchet replied to Bulkhead. My optics widened in shock. If he was checking up on me, but I wasn't in the room, he would probably look for me. And that would be bad. I turned around and bumped against something hard. I fell backwards on my aft and was disorientated for a few seconds. Everything went quiet, all I could hear was the electricity flowing through the lamps on the ceiling and the venting of my own and that of the blockade hovering half over me. Optimus stood there like he was about to safe me from falling, in which he miserably failed.

He found it necessary to explain his action to me. 'The room. It was empty. So I wondered where you might have gone.' He grabbed both of my hands and pulled me back on my feet.

'Err, thanks.' All that I could give to him was an awkward thank you. Great way to give a first impression of yourself, Saberquake, I thought.

'Saberquake! You are not allowed to walk around yet! What if your wounds reopen?' Ratchet walked over to me with a tense look in his optics.

'Ratchet, I'm fine. You did a great job. I've never felt better and relaxed.' I placed my both hands on his shoulders to calm him down. I smiled and hoped that he would buy it.

'That's good for you.' The femme, Arcee, placed her hands on her hips. Her tone couldn't get any more sarcastic. She turned to Optimus. 'Optimus, I don't mean to be rude, but could you explain to us what happened on the battlefield?'

He looked around and his glance ended on me. I looked away. Everyone was silent when he started talking. 'Saberquake is a descendant of Solus Prime. A daughter, according to human concept.' He said plainly. A joined gasp from the group was the reply.

'That's impossible. Solus Prime lived in a time period where most cybertronians weren't even born yet.' Arcee's optics looked like they could drop on the floor any second.

'It's true though.' I shrugged.

'How?'

'Well, when I was born she kept me secret from the other primes. Especially from Prima, since they hated each other fiercely,' I sighed tiresome. 'The only one who knew of me was Nexus Prime. They were bestest of friends.'

'Even though she loved Megatronus greatly, she did not hesitate to keep me away from him. She said to me that he could be "a little hot-tempered", I didn't knew what she meant back then.'

Optimus gave me a painful look, but I continued. 'When the mood between the primes turned bad, Solus was the one to put me in stasis and hid me away on a deserted place on Cybertron. When I woke up, cybertronians were already splitting into two sides: autobots and decepticons. I didn't had the faintest idea what had happened…'

'The demise of Solus Prime…' Optimus finished my sentence. It was as if no one knew where to look at. No words of sympathy, only silence to comfort me after I explained my origin story to them.

I swung my arms loosely back and forth as I awkwardly scanned the room. It seems that every bot in the room had an occupied mind until I cleared my throat.

'Hereby I welcome you to team prime, Saberquake.' Optimus' big hand lay on my shoulder after I got to know everybody.

'Now the only problem remains, Saberquake has yet to know of humans customs.' Continued Optimus and looked at me with a questioning glance in his optics.

I took a step back and his hand slid from my shoulder. 'Humans?' I asked.

'The natives of this very planet.' Was Optimus' answer.

'But we don't have more humans here to be her teacher,' mentioned Bulkhead. 'I mean, Arcee has Jack, Bee has Raf and I have Miko.'

Optimus stroke his chin for a while and was in deep thought.

'What about Jack's mom?' Bee suggested in beeps and whirls.

'Where are you going with this Bee?' Arcee crossed her arms over her chest.

'Well, the cons know about her too. Same for Fowler, except Fowler has military experience. So that makes her the best option, right?'

'Well, I already take care of Jack. What makes you think I cannot take care of June too?' Arcee retorted. I stood there dumbfounded as I had literally no idea what they were talking about.

'Arcee, we know you are capable of great things. But asking you to watch over two humans and that you will accompany us on missions and patrols is nonsensical.' Optimus' tone tolerated no contradiction.

'Optimus, with all respect. But who is this "June"?' I asked.

'You will meet the humans another day, first you need to recover from your injuries. For your sake and for Ratchet's.' I turned around and saw Ratchet tapping his foot impatiently on the ground.

'Right.' I smiled at Ratchet as he muttered something under his breath.

I lay down on the berth which I woke up from an hour ago. Ratchet checked my system as I was keeping my optics straight focussed on the ceiling.

'Everything seems normal…' Ratchet said. I was about to get up to return to the others.

Ratchet pushed me down on the berth. 'Yeep yeep, you must rest.'

'I'm fine, Ratchet.'

'You're fine when I say you're fine. Now rest.' He walked away and closed the door.

I sighed and closed my optics.

Oh boy, what have I missed transformers. From now on, I will only write this fanfic and stop writing the others untill this one is finished.

I do have to say that this chapter worked out really well! I reread the first chapter and thought 'How can you guys like this? This is terrible!' But I am really proud of myself (sorry if I sound so selfish)

Anyway, stay tuned for the next chapter which will mention relics, moms and humans.

Oh and don't be shy to leave a review. You have my eternal thanks. Everything is appriciated, except hate. I hate hate...

bye-bye CB
