[It's late at night, Ratchet has finished patching everyone, – Including Breakdown, who came back from the hospital – and now everyone is in the main area, Megatron and Chromia were better now, and they were currently discussing matters.]
Ratchet: It'll take me some time to figure out why this liquid caused you two to experience dizziness. [Ratchet put aside the liquid to study later.] Where did it come from?
Megatron: It came from a few Vehicons I was fighting. They looked... Offline. And when I stabbed them, some liquid got on me. [Megatron explained.]
Chromia: Same with me. [Chromia confirmed.]
Hot Rod: I fought off similar Vehicons while fighting Arcee. They'll attack anyone. [Hot Rod added, recalling them attacking them both.]
Ratchet: Interesting, I'll look into it. [Ratchet said.]
Breakdown: So... Was I the only one to notice Starscream? [Breakdown asked worriedly.]
Optimus Prime: No, you were not. I also saw Starscream shortly before we left. [Optimus confirmed.]
Ratchet: Wait... You all saw Starscream? [Ratchet said in disbelief.]
[Everyone nodded.]
Ratchet: But if Starscreams back, then that means... [He began, optics wide in realization.]
Optimus Prime: Elita-1 has come. [Optimus finished grimly.]
[Everyone went silent. If Elita-1 found her way to earth, then chaos was sure to follow. The question was, what was she planning?]
Chromia: What do we do? [Chromia asked.]
Megatron: Keep an optic out, that's all we can do. [Megatron replied.]
Hot Rod: But we need to do more! I say we find her and scrap her! [Hot Rod exclaimed, punching the air.]
Ratchet: Ep, Ep, Ep, not in your current condition! All of you have to take it easy for a few weeks, considering how much damage you took from the battle. [Ratchet reminded, earning a groan from Hot Rod.]
Optimus Prime: Ratchet's medical authority overrides mine, for now, we must wait.
Megatron: Meantime, we can come up with a plan. [Megatron suggested, which everyone agreed to.]
Chromia: So... Are the kids alright? [Chromia asked, changing the topic.]
Breakdown: Jack said he'd let me know. He planned to call his parental unit to get home, same for Raf and Miko. [He informed.] The three agreed not to tell anyone. [He added.]
Optimus Prime: Very well. Until future notice, this meeting is surmised. [Optimus announced.]
[Then everyone went to their quarters to rest.]

[Three weeks have gone by, and everyone has recovered, bots and humans. Now, – under Optimus' request – they've brought them back to the ship.]
[When they arrived, they got out of the vehicles. Jack left Hot Rod, Raf left Breakdown and Miko Chromia. She looked better, but she was still bandaged up in some places, and there was a permanent scar across her nose.]
Miko: Hey! You guys are the ones that saved me! Thanks, I'm Miko! The boys briefed me, are you really from a different planet– do you fight often– how many weapons do you have– why do the Cons want to take over– [She kept asking questions. The others were surprised.]
