Transformers Prime: A New Adventure.
Chapter 35: New Femmes Arrive.
In the Autobot base, Ratchet is working on the scanners again when an Autobot signal 100 miles from Earth is detected.
Ratchet remarks before saying, "Oh, my. Optimus!"

Ratchet states, "Take a gander at this. It's an Autobot starship, and their identification is real. Someone else has answered your call, Optimus."
Everyone except for Optimus muttered in surprise.
Optimus nods before asking, "And which ship is this?"
Ratchet answers, "It's the BC Paramount Challenger. And its trajectory is said to be heading for an abandoned location in the Sahara Desert far from humans and desert wildlife."
Ratchet then gasps in shock, prompting Cutgrin to ask, "What is it, Ratchet?"
Ratchet answers, "They're contacting us."
Optimus replies, "Answer their call and put it on the screen."
Ratchet does so, and the Autobots see for themselves that the crew are femmes.
And the femme crew consisted of 307 crew members.
As far as even Optimus could tell, these femmes, aside from being Grounders, Aerialbots, and Triple Changers from the Tyran cluster as Fortressimus explained some time ago, look like Victoria's Secret Angels.
An eavesdropping Fortressimus was watching with great interest as some of the male Autobots' gazes went to any one of the femmes.
Fortressimus mouths to the camera, "(Mouthing) Wow. Never thought I'd see this happen, but we definitely don't need high levels of cortisol – or in other words, testosterone – infiltrating their logic circuits."
Suddenly, at Optimus' discreet prompting, Fortressimus and the other Autobots – including techno-organics, superhumans, Maximals, and Predacons – emerged from the hallways to the extremely humongous command center.
The femme in front of the camera asks first, "Is this Optimus Prime's team?"
Optimus answers, "Yes. And who might you good-looking femmes be?"
The femme goes on to introduce herself as Magnaburst, and she introduces her crew as Steellock, Motorcircuit, Bulkstreak, Photoncycle, Fierycharger, Bulksight, Megacircuit, Galvacircuit, Aquascrap, Gloomsling, Wreckglide, Jawlight, Springwhsiper, Longeyes, Whisperblower, Commonwatcher, Wyvernflare, Darkcloud, Battlepelt, Mournblood, Peacedancer, Emberlash, Aquatwitch, Cannonguard, Magmamine, Savageheap, Aerocrush, Boneboom, Shadecycle, Joltcut, Bulkblast, Rumbledealer, Meltbrawn, Bodyclaw, Gloombite, Rhinobuster, Strikeworks, Deepsnarl, Sparkdive, Bombclaw, Frostlock, Overtwitch, Overparticle, Diveracer, Cloudriot, Flamevermin, Halfzodiac, Rhinoheap, Deepshot, Savvyjaw, Broadglitch, Tigercircuit, Avianpounder, Maniacfoot, Fluttermine, Tigaguard, Cascadebutton, Gleamflow, Geararm, Thunderlead, Deftbang, Hangswitch, Outhymn, Gadgetchain, Hydrau Aurora, Gloomblades, Gloomsweep, Botanislide, Flightclaw, Retrocharge, Retroray, Rhiways, Hookstream, Mecharake, Aerodrive, Smokeblitz, Voltblight, Rhipounder, and so forth.
Magnaburst states, "We would be honored if you allow us to join your team."
Optimus replies, "The honor is ours."
Magnaburst questions, "And who does your team consist of, by any chance?"
Optimus went on to introduce every single mech, femme, etc. to Magnaburst, along with explaining good things about them, bad things about them much to their chagrin and sheepish admittance, their special functions, their powers, and their individual ranks.
And Optimus also went on to explain the techno-organics, normal humans, and superhumans in the ranks, including what humans were, how many there are, how long they can live depending on personal life style, how long there has been wars between good and evil in humanity, how humans will often react to aliens among them, the circumstances in which humans can gain superpowers depending on universal law and timeline order, and the different human iterations of Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory used in the human Bible scriptures.
Of course, Fortressimus accelerated time for Optimus to explain things and for Magnaburst to ask questions if needed without over-exerting themselves.
As Fortressimus bends time back to its original speed, Optimus then concludes, "Arcee is one of my lieutenants and shares the same position as Ratchet, Ultra Magnus, Jazz, Ironhide, Clippoint, Elita One, Grimlock, Prowl, Flareflyer, Sentinel Prime, Blacker, Lightfoot, Cliffjumper, Tailgate, Red Alert, Slingshot, Grandus, Sky Garry, Waver, Quickmix, Sunbeat, Hound, Bumblebee, Steelfinder, Gravitydrive, Terrorwielder, Circuitflyer, Shadowfinder, Steelrally, Dusksinger, Soundforce, Acidclaw, Ionclaw, Novaclaw, Flarefinder, Tidebolt, Downblaze, Grimdown, Shotstorm, Grimknock, Currentscare, Blightbringer, Clippoint, Starvoid, Downshell, Acidcharger, Ioncharger, Novacharger, Thunderstrike, Riftfall, Lawblazer, Streetbearer, Frostgiver, Cloudbreaker, Metalswimmer, Necrosinger, Streetheart, Gravitystreak, Riftburst, Shadowflyer, Chromelord, Swiftflash, Streetwheels, Worldfinder, Victoryflyer, Galaxystreak, Shockwave, Vibeblaster, Heatwing, Currentdrive, Tidedriver, Gravitydriver, Warflash, Cloudflash, Knife Out, Starscream, Skywarp, Thundercracker, Skyquake, Dreadwing, Aero Raid, Airsized, Armored Corps, Axel, Axor, Black Spider, Blackwidow, Blast Off, Blazemaster, Brawl, Breeze Master, Carnivac, Carzap, Catilla, Choppermaster, Clobber, Crankshot, Crystal Widow, Deaddart, Diabla, Drench, Drift, Explosion Launcher, Fireworks Master, Glit, Tightcutter, Gripthroat, Daresteel, Hot Break, Steamtractor, Laserknock, Hawkshear, Wheelrider, Wildbolt, Landbuild, Combatmaster, Rotorpunch, Rackflap, Oilclaw, Razor Bomber, Kingclaw, Jetswipe, Black Eye, Whirlrotor, Victoryfire, Stargunner, Razorslasher, Slogshot, Cat Rod, Shadowwheel, Scouttake, Thunderbomber, Wild Dragon, Vaingain, Hawking, Eclipse, Eagle Eye, Erector, Gigawatt, Deadgripper, Skyfire, Skyfly, Landslide, Manta Ray, Marinemaster, Piranha, Silverbee, Obsidian, Oil Slick, Onslaught, Flatwave, Flame Dragon, Scoutjet, Scoutlauncher, Scoutslasher, Scoutstinger, Treadmine, Shred, Sandblock, Counterglide, Ironsaw, Stealth Bomber, Stealth Saber, Seadown, Swindle, Firegut, Torque Gain, Vortex, Wasp, Knockdrive, Stake Twist, Wildwheel, Super Rod, X-Gunner, Warbrain, Nosejet, Mixstuff, Battleburner, Chaintwin, Denfentron, Hot Alert, Blastblock, Razorbug, Bumblecap, Victoryspan, Dreadjack, Dragtop, Hawksight, Knockdown, Dreadcore, Rawquake, Fangwing, Steelshell, Chockbome, Shellhead, Kickfang, Coreshot, Stormnel, Acidshark, Ionshark, Novashark, Acidulate, Ionulate, Novaulate, Burstcast, Tinfun, Shockwar, Coreshift, Bombshot, Chopshell, Buzzshock, Barclaw, Sparrow Shop, Hardox, Infernoshell, Kickhole, Shotback, Shrapler, Needsack, Ranhorn, Razornel, Wasptrap, Zapinok, Scorpshot, Salvoinator, Venomsharp, Springage, Bristlebrain, Birdback, Brougeon, Bludhaha, Bug-Burst, Bombly, Carback, Fenivac, Finris, Gilflector, Hoodpick, Icewink, Killnaus, Igujoy, Octomaster, Oilpunch, Blockgrabber, Skullblock, Skygrin, Snarlhammer, Scowler, Reflecslug, Spacedown, Splashwarp, Stranglemarauder, Thunderhold, Subwing, Starfly, Wildpinch, Soundboard, Screamer, Stagescout, Starachnid, Sparksong, Shockwave, Flamewar, Overscreen, Darksor, Blow Saber, Tailflight, Ironrider, Beachswipe, Grim Magnus, Ramburst, Groundpick, First Shop, Menkill, Blitzpipe, Tipjumper, Countsor, Doubleplex, Iron Hauler, Iron Spot, Breaklane, Silverimus Prime, Wavewarp, Gundance, Treadjump, Pointspeed, Bigwatch, Wave Magnus, Grimjaw, Smokemix, Dogtop, Doghopper, Lightblades, Tipmix, Widesnapper, Chainstreak, Broaddown, Apeside, Grim Cloud, Hosespray, Wheelpath, Fast End, Mixbee, Stone Shop, Thundernose, Breakrider, Sixtrack, and Fastshock among others. Anyway, Arcee may use few words and she may be smaller than us, but don't let her size deceive you; her Cybertronian and human martial arts skills combined with her natural stealth abilities, her upgrades from the Forge of Solus Prime, her ability to comprehend the differences and consequences between justice and revenge in the correct situations, her ability to catch up to any Decepticons escaping with anything that does not belong to them, her numerous victories in the war, her trustworthiness, her resilience to specific different types of torture, and her ability to rally the troops in the event of my absence or my incapacitation makes her invaluable."
Magnaburst looks at Arcee with great interest.
Magnaburst then questions, "So, how does it feel to be praised, Arcee, if you don't mind my asking?"
Arcee replies hesitatingly, "W-well, um, uh, it-it actually feels good."
Magnaburst replies, "Hm, I'm sure it does."
Clippoint then questions, "So, ma'am, when will you be landing?"
Magnaburst replies, "Firstly, no need for formalities; we're all friends here no matter what rank positions we have. And secondly, we will be landing in half of an Earth hour at most, two Earth hours at the latest if we are delayed for any reason."
Optimus nods before saying, "Safe journeys, femmes, and make sure you read every file on our team roster; you never know if intel and trivia about our teammates will come in handy."
Magnaburst replies before hanging up, "Understood. BC Paramount Challenger out."
Then the screen went black as the video call clicked out and the screen returned to normal.
Bulkhead remarks with a whistle, "Steellock looks wonderful. I wish I can get to know her better when she and the others get here."
Downshell exclaims incredulously, "Hey, what are the rest of us so far, chopped cyber-liver?!"
Fortressimus adds, "She's got a point, and besides, those femmes are soldiers, not bots for exhilarating experiences of a romantical fashion."
Later, the Autobots assigned to the pickup of the femmes consisting of Bumblebee, Arcee, Bulkhead, Cliffjumper, Tailgate, Shadowguard, Kingclaw, X-Gunner, Starscream, Skywarp, Thundercracker, Slipstream, Ramjet, Dirge, Thrust, Sunstorm, Red Wing, Sandstorm 2, Wheezing Arrow, Autoclave, Dreadwing, Skyquake, Overscreen, Darksor, Blow Saber, Tailflight, Ironrider, Beachswipe, Grim Magnus, Ramburst, Groundpick, First Shop, Menkill, Blitzpipe, Tipjumper, Countsor, Doubleplex, Iron Hauler, Iron Spot, Breaklane, Silverimus Prime, Wavewarp, Gundance, Treadjump, Pointspeed, Bigwatch, Wave Magnus, Grimjaw, Smokemix, Dogtop, Doghopper, Lightblades, Tipmix, Widesnapper, Chainstreak, Broaddown, Apeside, Grim Cloud, Hosespray, Wheelpath, Fast End, Mixbee, Stone Shop, Thundernose, Breakrider, Sixtrack, and Fastshock stood ready at the open Space Bridge.
As soon as they went through the portal to the Sahara Desert, they were floored by a barrage of heat, but they thankfully had upgraded cooling fans in their frames to deal with the amounts of heat in Earth's hottest environments.
They saw the three hundred and seven Autobot femmes were carrying two to four perfectly stacked boxes of their collectibles and other belongings, with each box held together by thick restraints.
Downshell even got a good look at them.
In particular among others, Magnaburst was a scarlet red and emerald green with sky blue and tangerine orange accents for her paint job. Her optics were a brilliant dark blue, her helmet had a metal Swiss Miss hairstyle combined with a samurai helmet, her face was lengthy and muscular, and she was laced with muscle. She also had flat and muscular stomach armor paneling and a muscular waistline.
A look at Fortressimus' optics made Optimus remember that Elita One was still alive and that every femme and mech on the team is just as valuable as one another.
After approaching the femmes and shaking servos, Arcee questions, "Magnaburst, would you like me to carry a box stack for you?"
Magnaburst replies, "Yes, please."
Arcee takes the offered box stack, and about a few of the femmes had one box being carried by the mechs and the other femmes.
In no time, every femme on the team got suitable suitors while holding off any romance gestures and romance-anything-else so as to avoid clouded judgments and making irrational decisions if their partners ever got seriously damaged or completely destroyed on the battlefield.
In his quarters, Fortressimus calculated that it would take another few days before the next Autobot shows up, but it's just a question of who it'll be.
Fortressimus prayed to God and Primus that whoever of the new Autobots arrives is friendly in some capacity.
The End.
