Tonight was a new night for the Autobots, much has changed these past few days. There numbers grown quite a bit, the Return of Optimus prime, and the hunt for relics have came into play. Just Recently, the Autobots managed to get their hands on one of them, thanks to bee.

In the main part of the base, Caydtronus was working with Ratchet and Que on some projects that could help improve some things around the base. Such as an Upgrade for the Energon processor for more quick energon processing,an upgrade to the groundbridge to use less power, and of course an upgrade to the computers and systems.

The last one would have to be done later cause right now, the groundbridge is needed. Hound contacted the base." Whoever is near the groundbridge controls, me and bee need a bridge. Bee needs a check up, something's wrong with him." Said Hound over the comms.

That was a tad odd but hopefully nothing to worry about too much. So ratchet heads over to the groundbridge controls to bring hound and bee back to base.

While ratchet did that, Caydtronus felt like Optimus and some of the others should know about this, so he sends a message to them as hound and bee came back to the base.

"What exactly is wrong with Bumblebee?" Asked Ratchet, wanting to know before running a check up so he can focus on the main issue.

Bee beeps and whirls a bit, tapping his side a bit. He says that there might be something up with his t-cog because he can't transform at all.

"His T-cog...that's the organ in every Cybertronian that allows us to transform, right?" Asked Caydtronus, wanting to make sure his memory is correct.

Que nodded a bit." Aye lad, and if there's something wrong with it then one temporary loses the ability to change form till it's fixed or replaced through a t-cog transplant." Said Que. that's probably what has happened to Bees t-cog and it's just a bit damaged.

Bee lays down on the medical table, Ratchet scanning Bees t-cog as Optimus, Grimlock, Arcee, and Sol came into the room." Ratchet, what seems to be the problem with Bumblebee?"Asked Optimus, wishing to know what's the matter with his son I mean scout.

Ratchet had an answer for Optimus, but it wasn't good. By the Allspark...Bumblebees t-cog is gone." Said Ratchet, letting everyone in the room know what has happened to Bee.

"Someone took Bees t-cog?! Who would do that?!" Asked Arcee, not knowing who could have possibly have done that.

Grimlock had a thought on who might have done this, but it couldn't have been...HIM since bee was still alive and that certain Decepticon and his team aren't with the cons on earth at the moment so it had to be someone else.

But then Grimlock remembered a certain group of humans who are hellbent on learning all about Cybertronians." Mech would." Said Grimlock.

Everyone had forgotten all about mech with everything that's been going on lately, it makes sense." It would seem their quest to understand Cybertronians is growing every day." Said Ratchet, disgusted with the way mech is going about doing this.

"Okay I say none of us transform till Bee gets his cog back." Said hound, not wanting to make bee feel worse by having him catch them transform.

"Your sparks in the right place but now's not the time to give ourselves a crutch, especially with those relics in play." Said Arcee, thinking it's a nice gesture but with those powerful relics out there, none of them can afford to hold back.

Optimus agreed with Arcee, the Autobots cannot allow megatron to get his hands on those relics. However, Optimus also can't help but think about what dark intentions Mech has for Bumblebees T-Cog.

Later...

Most of the Autobots were a bit scattered at the moment, most are attempting to find and locate a Mech base that might have Bees cog.

While Bee was waiting for the team to find his missing cog, He has been bugging Ratchet for the past hour, and it is quite hilarious to see Ratchet having to deal with it." Can someone please keep him occupied while I work!!" Asked Ratchet out loud, not caring who just anyone.

Thankfully, Raf had the perfect solution." Hey bee, wanna watch some tv?" Asked Raf, getting Bees attention immediately.

Bee walks over to where raf was at, crouched down a bit so he can see the Tv. Once raf turned on the tv, a commercial for Bees alt mode came on." It will not just rock your world, it will transform it." After that Raf turns off the tv after realizing that he may have just made things worse.

And of course it did make things worse. Bee let's our a long loud sad beeb as he walked away.

While Bee was going through emotions like a teenager, Caydtronus and Sol were having a conversation, alone in the training room. Caydtronus believes they have yet to reach their full potential." I have done some research on our name sakes and have discovered a couple of things about them." Said Caydtronus as he looked at Sol, the two were sitting on the ground, holding hands as they spoke to one and other.

"Like what?" Asked Sol, becoming curious to know what sort of stuff Megatronus and Solus prime could do that neither of them have done yet.

"Texts of the two primes have said that Solus prime was capable of creating virtually anything with or without her forge. while Megatronus had a power of unlike any other, he could crush enemies without even laying a finger on them. The texts aren't to specific but they have the general idea." Said Caydtronus, explaining his findings of the two primes to Sol.

Sol thought that was pretty awesome, a huge part of her that they both can do the stuff the two dead primes could do." Wait, why are you bringing this up now?" Asked Sol, curiosity taking hold of her as she looked at Caydtronus for answers.

Caydtronus is silent for a bit before revealing why he brings this up now." Because I think that you might be able to make Bee a new t-cog if we are unable to find it." Said Caydtronus, speaking his thoughts to her.

This surprised Sol a bit, but then the gears started turning as she thought about it." Maybe...but I don't even know if I can do what Solus prime could do." Said Sol, letting go of Caydtronus's hand and stares at her.

Caydtronus sets his hand on Sol's shoulder, causing her to look at him, seeing his smile." I believe that you can Sol." He said with a smile.

This fills her with some confidence, and rewards Caydtronus with some kisses.

Next Day...

Caydtronus and Sol have been working hard to see if Sol can do what Solus prime could do, and while they did that, Hound took Bee with him to get a relic instead of getting someone more able.

Which did not end well at all, Bumblebee ended up having to chase after the con, Knockout, on a rusted old truck that only ended up taking him off a cliff.

Thankfully hound had arrived and brought Bee back to the base where ratchet was able to patch him up, but not without Scolding the young scout." You lost your voice box, then your t-cog! Are you trying to add your spark to the list?!" Asked Ratchet.

Bee beeps and whirls a bit, saying that he just wanted to prove that he wasn't useless without his t-cog.

A hand rests on Bees shoulder, it was Optimus Dad I mean Prime." You are not useless Bumblebee, you have nothing to prove either. We will make you whole again, I promise." Said Optimus. After that he began to walk away, Ratchet following after him.

"Optimus, there is a way to make him whole sooner, rather than later." Said Ratchet, knowing that Optimus knows what he is referring to.

"A transplant...but that would require a donor." Said Optimus, knowing that with no donor, then no transplant.

Ratchet knew this, which is why he thought ahead." And that Donor will be me." Said Ratchet, willing to give up his own t-cog so that Bumblebee will be able to transform again.

It is a generous offer, but there's a slight problem with that." Ratchet, we would only be trading one cog less autobot for another." Said Optimus, knowing that there would still be someone with no t-cog at the end of this if ratchet goes through with it.

Ratchet shakes his head a bit." Optimus, the ability to transform is wasted on me. I don't have a need for wheels or weapons. I spend all my time here, only ever using my hands." Said Ratchet

"Ratchet, we will find Bumblebees t-cog." Said Optimus, assuring his old friend that they will find bees missing piece.

Ratchet wasn't so sure of that." Optimus...Mech are savages. There's no tell what condition Bumblebees t-cog might be in. For all we know, they have taken it apart completely, or have destroyed it. I need to this, for the good of the team." Said Ratchet, fearing the worst for bees t-cog as he walked away.

Later...

Some of the Autobots were standing around as they Watched what was happening by the medical area.

Ratchet had brought Que and Caydtronus together to pick one to perform the procedure since he will not be able to cause of him being one of the patients." Since I will be the other patient and unable to perform the procedure, one of you will have to do it in my place." Said Ratchet as he looked at the two.

Que and Caydtronus were both a bit nervous, but the former had a good excuse." My Optics aren't what they used to be Ratchet, I can't do it." Said Que, scooting away, leaving Caydtronus by himself.

Ratchet looked at Caydtronus and then at his hands and sighs a bit." Though you are the perfect candidate to perform the procedure, I'm afraid your hands are too large for this." Said Ratchet, a bit disappointed that Caydtronus won't be given the chance to perform such a procedure.

Caydtronus is silent for a bit before showing his hands to ratchet, and then his hands shifted a bit, becoming smaller, small enough to perform the procedure." Better?" He asked.

Ratchet was a bit caught off guard by this but then recovered and nods." Yes, much better." Said Ratchet as he then walked over to one of the berths and lays down.

Caydtronus sighs a bit as he transformed his hands back to normal for now and then started to hook up ratchet to get him ready for stasis." I hope this works." Said Caydtronus, not feeling very confident at the moment since this will be his first time doing something like this.

"Hey, don't doubt yourself, I'm sure you'll do great." Said Sol, putting a hand on his arm, supporting him in this moment.

Caydtronus smiled a bit, appreciating the support as he then walked over to the console and activated stasis, putting ratchet to sleep.

Bee beeps a bit, not sure if this is a good idea, but Ratchet thinks so." You can...thank me...when I wake up." Said Ratchet, out like a light.

Now with ratchet in stasis, it was now time to get bee hooked up and into stasis, but before Bee could get hooked up, the monitors nearby started going off. For some hilarious reason, Whirl decided to say something." Oh primus he's flatlining! Quick someone zap him!" Said Whirl, but no one did that.

Everyone looked over at the monitors and saw that it was another relic. If they're getting this signal now then that means the cons have already begun to dig it up." Looks like the Decepticons have found another relic." Said Skyquake as he stared at the monitor.

"We cannot allow the Decepticons to get there hands on another relic. Grimlock, i believe it would be best to leave this mission in you and some of your team's hands." Said Optimus, wanting to leave such a mission like this in the Autobots most dangerous and highly successful team.

Grimlock nods a bit, that was the smartest thing Prime has ever said." Demolition force, Except you substitute doc, get ready to move out." Ordered Grimlock, wanting Caydtronus to stay behind so he can continue on with the procedure. The other dinobots were currently unavailable at the time but would be back a bit too late so only Whirlc Skyquake, sol, and Arcee are the only ones available to go.

While the rest of the team gets ready to go, Caydtronus sighs a bit, seems like he will have to perform the procedure anyway." Understood." Said Caydtronus as he walked over to Bumblebee and started to hook the scout up.

While Caydtronus did that, Que opens up the groundbridge for Grimlock and his team, after that they headed through, arriving in a rocky area with tall mountains.

Once there, Arcee brings out the scanner and moved it around a bit, very quickly picking up the signal. It came from a close by mountain, it would take a bit to get there." The scanner is picking up the relic up there, it's gonna take us awhile to get up there." Said Arcee as she turns back to the rest of team.

But luckily they had a pair of flyers on there team." Good thing me and my flying buddy Skyquake here can fly. We'll take a quick fly up there an-"Whirl got interrupted before he could continue.

"No, not by yourselves. I'm going with you two." Said Sol with a grin, not wanting to be left out of the fighting, especially since Skyquake and whirl would be arriving first and most likely deal with everything before the rest of them could even get there.

"No offense Sol, but you are incapable of flight, you have no way of joining us." Said Skyquake, reminding her that she cannot fly like he and whirl can.

Hearing this made Sol smirk a bit as she then shows them her forearms. The top of them shifts a bit and reveals some grapple hooks." I can if I attach these to you guys." Said Sol.

Whirl and Skyquake stared at those for a bit and were about to tell her that there's no way she's doing that, But then there mighty leader spoke up." Do it. Arcee and I will catch up." Said Grimlock as he started to walk away immediately.

The two fliers both reluctantly transform and the both get grappled by Sol, after that they take off, taking Sol with them.

While they did that, back at the autobot base, Caydtronus finished putting Bee in stasis, after that he got ready to cut open ratchet and remove the medics t-cog.But luckily for him, Agent Fowler called." Prime! You there? I got some intel for ya." Said Agent Fowler, hoping Optimus is there.

Optimus was indeed there." What is it Agent Fowler? Decepticons?" Asked Optimus, assuming that whatever agent Fowler is about to tell them all it's about the cons.

"No, Mech agents. I might have a location to there main base of operations." Said Agent Fowler, letting it be known that he has some big news.

This was big news indeed. Optimus was about to give the order to the Autobots to be ready to roll out, but then Caydtronus spoke up." Optimus, I think i should go and investigate...alone." Said Caydtronus, stepping away from Ratchet and Bee, wishing to use this opportunity to postpone the procedure and reclaim bees t-cog.

Optimus was skeptical at first, especially with sending him alone, but perhaps sending Caydtronus will be a good idea. His mere presence should be able to frighten Mech." Very well. Agent Fowler, the coordinates please?" Asked Optimus.

Agent Fowler gives the coordinates out and then after that, he hangs up. After that, Caydtronus sets the coordinates into the groundbridge controls and then activates the groundbridge. Once activated, Caydtronus heads on through, arriving outside of a thirty five foot tall abandoned hanger.

Caydtronus stared at it for a bit, thinking about how Sol and the others are doing on their mission, but he needs to focus. Without wasting much time, Caydtronus's battle mask comes on and then he aims his fusion cannon at the hanger, mostly the roof area and then opens fire, shooting a few shoots.

The whole front part of the hanger and nearly all of the roof was destroyed as well, this immediately getting the attention of all Mech...and Starscream? Apparently Starscream had formed an Alliance with Mech." Who dares to...attack...us" Starscream lost all his anger and it was immediately replaced with fear.

Every agent, including Silas, stared up at the towering Caydtronus with fear. Caydtronus is silent as he aims his fusion cannon at the mech soldiers and Starscream." Return what you have stolen and I will consider sparing your pathetic little lives." He said, his voice intimidating the fuck out of everyone in the room.

Starscream knew what must be done in this situation...flee." Scatter!" Yelled Starscream as he fired a missile at the Caydtronus, hitting him dead on and created Lots of smoke. After that Starscream transformed and took off into the sky, abandoning Silas and mech.

The smoke cleared and revealed an undamaged and unamused Caydtronus."Starscream you coward! Mech! Open fire!" Ordered Silas while he himself flees through the back entrance with some troops.

The mech solders that stayed behind opened fire at Caydtronus, blindly following orders and attempting to kill the human turned robot alien, but are failing immensely since there guns can't even dent or leave a mark on him.

Caydtronus fusion cannon however, can do much more than just harm. With a bit of consideration, Caydtronus does something Optimus and more than half of the Autobots would certainly be anger at Caydtronus...but he does not care, these vile people need to be dealt with...permanently.

So Caydtronus takes aim and fires a few shots, killing and completely eradicating the mech soldiers, leaving nothing behind, not even a pile of ashes. During this massacre, Caydtronus eyes seemed to flicker between there natural blue...and Red.

Once the slaughter was finished and all mech soldiers were dead, Caydtronus's eyes returned to there natural blue and his battle mask shifts away. He then walked over to mechs failed creation and then tore it apart, eventually finding Bee's t-cog." You will be whole again Bumblebee..." Caydtronus said to himself as he then walked away.

Caydtronus sends a message back to base for a groundbridge, and almost immediately a groundbridge appears. Just as he's about to go through, Caydtronus heard starscreams screams not too far from him, this makes Caydtronus smile a bit." Karmas a bitch." Said Caydtronus as he then went on through.

Once he made it back to the base, he noticed that Grimlock and his team made it back from there mission and saw that it was successful due to Sol swinging around a hammer like it was toy." Seems like I wasn't the only one successful today." Said Caydtronus as he smiled a bit.

Sol grins a bit as she nodded." Yep! Say hello to my new crushing toy! The forge of sol! Pretty cool right?" It's called the forge of solus prime but since Sol is basically the new Solus then she can change the name of her hammer if she wants.

Caydtronus chuckles slightly at this, nodding a bit as he walked over to the medical area where shockingly, ratchet and bee were still in stasis. Well this just makes things easier with Bee, as for ratchet, it's probably best to let the old timer have his nap.

One procedure later...

Both Bumblebee and Ratchet were awakened around the same time. Bumblebee felt whole but wasn't really happy about it since he thinks he's got ratchets t-cog, speaking of Ratchet, he felt exactly the same.

"How do you both feel?" Asked Caydtronus, asking both of them instead of just saying right away about bees cog, just to have a bit of fun.

Bee said he feels alright but still not okay with this. Ratchet on the other hand, felt the same." I feel the same, and there doesn't appear to be any markings of the procedure." Said Ratchet, impressed by Caydtronus's first procedure.

"I would hope so since i didn't cut you open." Said Caydtronus with a small smile.

This confused the two quite a bit, that is till Bee caught on. Bee then immediately rushed over and hugs Caydtronus leg, Saying thanks and how grateful he is for the recovery of his T-Cog. Caydtronus pats bee on the head...the hug lasted to long." Okay Bee, time to let go." Said Caydtronus.

Bee shakes his head as he keeps hugging Caydtronus's Leg. Caydtronus tried to shake bee off his leg, This getting laughs from everyone as Caydtronus failed to shake bee off his leg.

These past few days has had there ups and downs, but at least things are finally good again.

————————————————————————————

Tonight was a peaceful night at the Autobot base, not a single sound...well that is till Agent Fowler called, being very pissed." Prime! Grimlock! Why the hell are your teams fighting each other near public area?!" Asked Agent Fowler. This is the first time agent Fowler has asked for the both of them and it's a confusing question.

The leaders of there teams were confused by what Fowler said. "What are you talking about Fowler? My team is all here." Said Grimlock as he moved out of the way, revealing his whole team here and present.

Primes team was also at the base, though they were off in different parts of the base." You sure it ain't the cons? There's been a lot of in fighting with them." Said Arcee, thinking that it might just be some cons dueling it out or something.

Agent Fowler was about to say something, but then spotted Skyquake was there and then got really confused." Soldier, how the hell are you there and out here? You got clones or something?" Asked Agent Fowler, causing all attention to be put onto Skyquake.

Skyquake was now confused himself, and was about to ask what Agent Fowler was talking about, that is till the agent showed the bots who were fighting. The moment he saw who one of the fighters were, Skyquake gasped a bit." Dreadwing...my twin brother." Hearing this was a bit surprising to hear.

No one here knew about skyquake having a twin brother." You have a twin brother? Why is this the first time we're hearing about?" Asked Jazz, curious to know what reason Skyquake had to have kept this secret.

"None of you asked." Said Skyquake. That was true, no one bothered to ask if Skyquake had family or not.

Choosing to move on and not waste time, slug decides to ask about the other opponent."Who's the dance partner?" Asked Slug, wanting to know what possible autobot is out there fighting with dreadwing.

The screen shows the other brawler, showing a red autobot with some horns on his head. Everyone, Except Caydtronus, Sol, Skyquake,and Agent Fowler knew who it was." That's Cliffjumber! Good to see he's still kicking it." Said Jazz, glad to see Cliff again after all this time.

"I don't care if Abraham Lincoln is kicking it with snoop dog! We gotta stop there fight or we'll all be on the five o'clock news!" Said Agent Fowler as he then hangs up the call.

Oh right, the fight, almost forgotten about that." Skyquake, Jazz, I believe it would be best if the two of you went and put an end to there fighting." Said Optimus, believing these two to be the best option since the two know the brawlers well.

The two Autobots that were suggested both agreed that they would be the best option for this task. So with one quick groundbridge, the two arrived to the scene. The two are immediately spotted by both Cliffjumber and Dreadwing." Jazz!? Good to see you! Help me scrap this con!" Says Cliffjumper.

Jazz was about to tell Cliffjumper to lay down his weapons and chill, but Dreadwing spoke up." Skyquake?! Why have you aligned yourself with the autobots?" Asked Dreadwing, putting away his weapon as he started to approach his brother.

While Skyquake and Dreadwing approached one and other and had a talk, Jazz and Cliffjumper had a talk as well." Jazz, it's great to see you again, but can you explain to me why we're not slagging the con and why he and that skyquake guy like alike?" Asked Cliffjumper, not putting the pieces together just yet.

"Well, it's a long story. But to sum it up, Skyquake is a drift situation and that con you were fighting with is his twin brother." Said Jazz, summing up the situation to Cliffjumber, getting him up to speed.

As Cliffjumber was piecing things together and having a better understanding of things, a couple of loud what's, Deceiver, and dishonor came from Dreadwing while chatting with his brother." Huh, Sounds like he's learning the truth about Meg's." Said Jazz, putting a hand on his hips.

Eventually once both groups were finished were there conversations, they came together and Dreadwing decided to speak up first." After being told of the dishonor megatron has brought to all Cybertronians, I wish to join my brother and fight with the Autobots." Said Dreadwing, being very serious.

This was good news to hear, two more fighters for the autobots, nothing could ruin this…well except for some information that Dreadwing has." But, before I can join, I must warn you of the new reinforcements megatron is about to receive from a second ship that came into this system with me." Said Dreadwing, and just like that the good news has been ruined.

Cliffjumber groans a bit." Great, just fragging great. Do you have an idea which cons are gonna be joining up with Megatron?" Asked Cliffjumber, hoping the now ex-con he was just fighting has some sort of knowledge on this.

Dreadwing did in fact know the cons that were most likely already aboard Megatrons vessel and then started to tell them about the passengers from the other ship.

Speaking of them…

On the Decepticon warship, The Nemesis, a ship landed on the con warship, Megatron and a few soldiers were out there, waiting for the passengers of the ship to step out.

The bay doors of the ship open and Megatron was greeted with the sight of five familiar Decepticons. The five cons walk over to megatron and then kneel before him." Lord megatron, it is good to see you again." Spoke the leader of the five.

Megatron grins a bit as he stared at the five decepticons." Ah, Onslaught, it is good to have you and the rest of the combaticons here on earth. With the mighty bruticus on our side, the autobots will surely be crushed in no time." Said Megatron, finally having more powerful decepticons once again.

The combaticons stopped kneeling as Onslaught spoke again." Not just us lord megatron, we also brought two others." Said Onslaught as he motioned towards the ship.

All eyes were on the ship, watching as a very large con and very small cons walk out of the ship. No one had any clue who the smaller female con was, but boy did they all know who the very large con was.

Mostly everyone, minus megatron, was scared of him. As they should be since he can kill a Cybertronian with just his voice, and the most noticeable thing about this con was that fact that he wore a slightly modified Decepticon insignia mask on his face, hiding the scars on his face.

Megatron smirk became more wicked as he looked at the big con before him. Clearly the con has been altered a bit once again, but there's no denying that this is who he thinks it is." Ah, Tarn." Megatron revealed the name of masked con.

The one called tarn kneels down to megatron." Lord megatron, it is an honor to be back." Spoke Tarn, showing his respect to his leader.

Megatron may have lost the forge of Solus prime today , but his forces have just grown for the better. The autobots are in for a surprise when they cross paths next time…

Once I'm done with this fic, should I do another transformers fic? I mean I will and probably continue this story line after Tfp is done. I mean should I do a crossover with another transformer series or some new tf series

Also I'm making a Arcane fanfic but I have no idea what other fandom to crossover with it since the one I originally picked ain't gonna work for me. Any ideas?
