"You've gotta be kidding me" was what Seya mumbled when he saw Jack, Raf, and Ava appear through a groundbridge. When Bulkhead asked for backup, Seya was kinda expecting Bee and Arcee to show up. He was not expecting the children to appear from it.
"Didn't I tell them to stay put?" Crux mumbled, looking around to see if there were any dangers for them. He let out a small sigh of relief when he didn't see any, only for that relief to go away the moment shots were fired at them.
It wasn't a second thought to him. He shifted into his vehicle form and drove to them, then pulled to a stop next to them and opened his doors. "In, now" he kind of demanded. Ava wasn't against it at all and jumped into the passenger seat. Raf and Jack climbed into the back seats. Crux got their seatbelts on them and put the metal to the pedal as he zoomed away from the blaster fire.
"Now, does anyone wanna give me a good reason as to why in Primus' name you choose to come here? Didn't I say to stay put?" Crux asked as he drove away to a safer spot, a bit of anger in his voice. "Miko chose to be dumb and follow you guys," Ava said, catching her breath. "We're worried for her, have you seen her?" Jack asked.
Crux sighed, he couldn't be mad at them for worrying. "Yes, she's fine. Bulkhead currently has her." He said, parking behind a rock and opening his doors. "Now for the love of Primus, please stay here and don't move until I come back" Crux said as the humans got out. He then shut his doors and drove back to where his team was while trying not to get shot.
Before he got to the spot, he noticed that his team was gone. There was a high pitch sound and he glanced up to notice Seya was in his predacon form diving onto the ship, then glanced to the nearby rockwall to see Sparrow and Bulkhead driving up it. He had a feeling Sparrow was the one to initiate this rushed idea. He let out a small groan and drove after them.
Seya had transformed and landed onto a vehicon, a low growl escaping him as he glared at his enemies. "Watch it Se, you're losing yourself again" Crux said as he, Sparrow and Bulkhead pulled up and transformed next to him. "Does it matter that much on this occasion?" Sparrow asked. "... Not too much" Crux said, making both Sparrow and Seya roll their eyes. "Now… wanna do what you three do best?" Crux asked, giving a small smile.
Seya's eyes lit up a bit of a smile forming onto his face "For sure, I love live prey" he said, his green eyes surveying the vehicons in front of them . Bulkhead smiled as well, his arms going into their melee mode. "Absolutely," The green mech said, his smile turning into a smirk. "Finally, thought you'd never ask" Sparrow said, clenching his fist as he dug his back foot into the metal of the ship.
…
The four of them had, for a lack of better words, annihilated the cons that were up top of the ship. "Primus, that was fun," Seya said, popping his shoulder a bit. "... Quick question, where's Miko?" Sparrow asked, looking over the edge of the ship. Bulkhead quickly rushed over next to him, his eyes wide with worry. Before he could go full panic, he heard a knock coming from inside his chest. Confused, he opened up his chest cavity and Miko popped her head out, gasping for air.
"I heaved on your floor mats, sorry" Miko said, covering her mouth so that she wouldn't throw up again.

Xena was getting sick of this.
Fowler Had still not given her the information she wanted, and it was starting to annoy her. "Primus, how much can you humans take?" she mumbled to herself as she put the prod away. She rubbed her forehead, trying to think of what to do now.
To her, she feels like she should let him go. Considering he had survived this long, it was impressive enough to her that he should be able to be free. Looking to her right though quickly reminded her that wasn't a possibility, not with Starscream there at least.
Xena shook her head, trying to clear the thoughts from her mind. Why should she care what happens to the human? He's stated that his son, his only family member, wouldn't care what happened to him so why should she?
Maybe it was being able to relate to him a bit, considering she thought the same about her little brother. Fowler had a chance to make things up with his son, unlike Xena with her autobot brother.
She heard a loud thud above her and raised an eyebrow, then looked back over at Starscream who looked as confused as her. "Someone, go find out what that is" Starscream yelled at the vehicons, causing them both to leave. Xena had one idea and what that could be.
Autobots.

Robin laid his head against the arm of the couch, drawing to try and get something done. He made a few notes on transformer biology that Sparrow had told him, and compared it to human biology, quickly figuring out what the equivalent was from transformers in terms of biology.
He then heard the sound of vehicles zooming down the entrance tunnel. He leaned his head up to see and sure enough, it was Arcee and Bumblebee. Arcee didn't seem to notice him on the couch as she tried to find the coordinates in their system. Bee did notice him and went over to him.
"So, this is what you were doing instead of ground bridging us back" Bee said, resting his head on top of the couch and looking down at him. Robin glanced up at him, then back at his sketchbook and went back to drawing. "Still being silent huh?" Bee asked, only for Robin to not give him an answer as he kept adding to his notes.
"What are you even writing about, can I see?" Bee asked him, trying to move his head to get a good angle. Robin pulled his sketchbook close to his chest, then shook his head. This made Bee frown "Fine" he said.
"Bee, let's move" Arcee said, activating the Ground Bridge and transforming into her motorcycle form and driving off into it. "Well, I got things to do. Have fun I guess" Bee said, turning into his alt form and driving after Arcee.

Ava was wondering how she got here.
Being carried by a decepticon was something she didn't really expect to happen instantly, or at all actually. She looked over to Jack and Raf as they were being carried by another Decepticon, they seemed equally uncomfortable.
"We shall take them to the brig with the other human" one of them said, catching her attention of Ava. Well, she knew where Fowler was now, but what was she meant to do with that info? Not like she could get away and tell anyone, the drop alone would most likely break her legs.
That's when she heard it.
The sound of vehicles driving down the hallway.
Backup was here.
She felt the grip on her loosen, and the next thing she knew she was falling. She screamed a bit and covered her eyes, preparing to be in a lot of pain. When she landed though, it was much earlier than what she expected, and nothing felt broken. She heard some beeps and uncovered her eyes, looking up and realizing Bee was holding her.
"Thanks Bee…" She said, letting out a small sigh of relief. Bee nodded, letting out a small beep that sounded like a You're welcome.
—-20 minutes later-
Stuff happened, and Sparrow was now currently aiming his blaster arm at Viper. A look of annoyance on his face. "Eh, was wondering when it would take you to get here S" Viper said, glancing at Starscream, who had his own blaster pointed at Fowler.
Not like it mattered, since it was them two verses six.
"Do not… call me that" Sparrow said, his eye twitching a bit as he attempted to calm himself. "Hey, relax a bit Sparrow. We're here" Crux said, throwing a small glance at the young warrior. "I'm fine" Sparrow said, a bit annoyed.
"Now, just let us have Fowler, and we can all get on with our lives" Sparrow said, wanting to move on with his day. "And what would happen if I were to… spread his remains all over this room?" Starscream asked, moving his blaster ever so closer to Fowler, who was completely out of it.
There was a light tapping on his head, and Starscream was met with Acree's blaster to his face. "I wouldn't," She warned.
VIper would've found it funny, if not for the situation they were in. She looked around, trying to notice anything she could use. That's when she noticed they all seemed to be tapping their foot at the same time. Seemingly trying to silence something.
She then heard the sound of something metal sliding along the floor. She thought about what it could be, and that's when she remembered the Autobots had a pet that could turn invisible. She turned her arm into a blaster and quickly shot at where she heard the sound.
And hit it.
Seya let out a hiss of pain as his cloak wore off and he held his wing.
"Seya!" The yellow scout yelled, seeming almost ready to rush over. "Almost forgot about that trick." she mumbled, just realizing how close he got to Fowler. "I'm fine.. Just peachy" Seya said, quickly knocking Starscream's and Viper's blaster away to where they weren't aiming at Fowler.
That was their time to dip. Starscream turned to his jet mode and flew at Bulkhead and Bumblebee, causing them to dive out of the way as to not get hit. Viper quickly followed in her alt form, escaping them
