The Autobots returned the Chambers after a week's worth of taking Optimus to look around at their work, where Omega Scion was seen making calibrations on the Orb of the Future.

"Omega, we've returned."

"I see you have. Are you prepared to see more of your descendants?"

"Yeah. Let's see more of the Maximals getting up and ready to kick Predacon aft!" Bumblebee spoke.

"Very well... take a seat."

The Autobots take seats around as the Orb eventually glows and expand enough for everyone to see into the future once more...

Back at the Axalon, Optimus Primal and Rhinox had just finished working on a strange device.

"Good work Rhinox" Primal commented.

"Well,  it still needs a field test." Rhinox wearily replied.

"Test?"

Cheetor arrives in Beast Mode, jumping on the table like an eager kid.

"I'm your Bot, whatcha got?"

"Rhinox cobbled together a new com-link. It's going to solve our long range communication problems."

"Communication problems?" Ultra Magnus asked.

"Their comms have been limited to a hundred meters due to the Energon fields interfering with their channels." Ratchet answered.

"If it works." Rhinox commented.

"Let's find out." Cheetor says then picks up the device. When he inspected the device close to his face, it sends a shock to keep him away.

"Wow, Ultra-Gear." Cheetor says in amaze.

"Cheetor It's a valuable piece of equipment. Take care of it." Optimus notifies.

"I copy Big Bot."

But Cheetor carries the device with uncertainty. He asks "What do I do?"

Optimus grabs the device and attaches it to Cheetor's foreleg, prompting the device to automatically wrap a steel bearing around the leg.

"The device is voice activated. Just talk into it and we'll hear you." Optimus answers.

"We hope." Rhinox says.

"He's saying that as if he doubts that the kitty will take care of it." Knockout commented.

"Knowing the kid, it's unlikely he will." Wheeljack said.

Optimus turns to one of the Axalon's computers and sits in saying...

"Head away from the base at Vector Omega and check in every 10 micro quads. We'll see how far we can track you. If you encounter any Predacons, return immediately."

"I'll be moving too fast for them to see me." Cheetor growls and leaps off the Axalon.

"You're setting your bar too high, kid." Bulkhead says.

"He'll do fine." Rhinox adds wearily.

Meanwhile, after excavating from a rock formation, Scorponok finds a strange device lodged in a pile of rocks. He struggles to pull it out of the debris in his Beast Form.

"Megatron will reward me for finding this."

But the device did not budge for even an inch.

"If I can ever get it out of this blasted rock!" He tries to pull again, only to give and back off when the device still does not budge.

The young Autobots chuckled.
