Transformers Prime: No Autobots Are Idiots.
Chapter 19: Second Chance Friends and Family.
(Transformers Prime Universe #192,394,596,203,495,867,019,183, June 18th, 2010, third person POV...)
On the outskirts of Mars, Firmshot in her space jet mode flies off to the planet Earth along with her parents Truestrike and Solidshot, her grandparents Heartstrike and Powershooter, her cousin units Robustshot, Vigorstrike, Sturdshot, and Stoutstriker, and her sibling units Stiffshot, Denseshot, Hardenshot, and Hardstriker, all of them in their space flight modes, with the simple goal of rendezvousing with the Autobots on Earth.
Alongside them were the Autobot Aerialbots known as Magnetracer, Forceblade, Rapidreaper, Lawburst, Thunderstealer, Chronojumper, Roadburst, Shadowfall, Steelburst, Ironstreak, Smokestealer, Skymaster, Airfall, Soundfall, Chronoscare, Galaxywire, Thunderbane, Moonbane, Nightblade, Starbolt, Tidescream, Cometdrive, Metalclaw, and Flarelord, replications of Silverbolt, Skydive, Air Raid, Slingshot, Fireflight, Airazor, Balloon, Powerglide, Breakaway, Armada Thrust, Movor, Ro-Tor, Storm Jet, Sky Shadow, Terradive, Treadshot, Windrazor, Stratosphere, Barrel Roll, Jetfire, Jetstorm, Safeguard, Metalhawk, and Windblade.
Firmshot was secretly hoping that the Autobots would be able to help her find the gladiator match recruiters who almost killed her parents and grandparents to force them, force her, and force her sibling and cousin units to join the Kaonian Gladiator Pits just because they were Triple Changers and people on Cybertron paid big money to see Triple Changers fight in the pits. Firmshot wanted to find those bots, but for what? Revenge.
Firmshot didn't care about whether or not her family will try to stop her, and she didn't care about what the Autobot Code Of Honor dictated about justice and revenge; as long as she got what she wanted, even if it meant disownment and imprisonment, she didn't care about anything else.
Hardstriker then says, "According to my radar, we're zeroing in on the landing coordinates set up by Smokeedge and the Primes."
Truestrike replies, "Understood, sonny. Prepare for rendezvous, everyone!"
In the Autobot base, Smokeedge says to Ratchet, "Ratchet, I just received word from Ionbee, and she said that the Triple Changer family unit who survived the Triple Changer Recruitment Hunt is coming to Earth as we speak."
Ratchet's optics widened in shock before he went to notify the others.
Smokeedge then says into his commlink, "Mossjumper, Mosswing, Hotwave, Redwave, Shocksprayer, Shocksmoke, Blackfist, Mosspine, Sprayjumper, Thunderpine, Polsound, make sure that no Decepticons attempt to go after the Triple Changers."
A chorus of eleven affirmatives sounded over his commlink.
At the site of the abandoned Hashima Island in Japan, the Triple Changers transformed to robot mode as soon as they were a few feet off the ground.
And then, the Autobot Space Bridge opened to deposit Optimus' standard troops.
Optimus looks at the Triple Changers, and he sees fractured Autobot symbols on them.
Optimus says before asking, "Autobots, welcome to Earth. Might I ask what your callsigns are?"
Heartstrike answers, "I'm Heartstrike. This is my sparkmate, Powershooter. These are my son and his mate, Truestrike and Solidshot, and these are our grandchild units, Robustshot, Vigorstrike, Sturdshot, Stoutstriker, Firmshot, Stiffshot, Denseshot, Hardenshot, and Hardstriker. We are among the survivors of the Triple Changer Recruiting Hunt."
Optimus looks relieved to hear that.
Firmshot then says, "And these are our Aerialbot friends, Magnetracer, Forceblade, Rapidreaper, Lawburst, Thunderstealer, Chronojumper, Roadburst, Shadowfall, Steelburst, Ironstreak, Smokestealer, Skymaster, Airfall, Soundfall, Chronoscare, Galaxywire, Thunderbane, Moonbane, Nightblade, Starbolt, Tidescream, Cometdrive, Metalclaw, and Flarelord."
Smokeedge approaches them and says, "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong."
The thirteen Triple Changers plus twenty-four Aerialbots replied in unison, "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." "Bah-weep-Graaaagnah wheep ni ni bong."
Jumpbee then asks, "Would you all be willing to offer your services to the Autobot cause in the name of freedom, justice, honor, nobility, and for the values of wisdom and life?"
Heartstrike answers, "On behalf of my family unit, I accept the offer."
Optimus and his lieutenants shake servos with Heartstrike and his family unit.
In the Autobot base, Firmshot explains her origin story: she was once a human from the Quadwal cluster who had a good life until the eve of her twenty-fifth birthday, when she was killed by a petty thief for refusing to give the thief her jewelry and her money. When she was passing on to the afterlife, Primus reached out to her and offered her a chance to start over on Cybertron during the Golden Age, ten thousand stellar cycles before the Great War began.
But what she didn't know was that Primus was gonna be too occupied with making sure that nothing bad happens to her new family unit.
The instant Firmshot laid her optics on Primus, she instantly hugged him tearfully.
Heartstrike says, "Primus, my father, it's good to see you again."
Primus replies, "I feel the same way, my son."
In no time, Firmshot and her family unit got acclimated to their new surroundings and they started to get along with the Autobot forces.
The End.
