3rd Person POV

Pietro Polendina is putting the finishing touches on a part of the Amity Communications Tower when he recieves a communication from Penny.

Penny: Dad?

Pietro: Penny?

Penny is sitting on front of a bomb inside the Schnee Dust Mine.

Penny: This does not seem like a very good idea.

She looks down at the bomb, her sensors telling her that it is a danger.

Pietro: There is a difference between a good idea and our best idea. Sadly, we don't have time for much else.

Penny touches the bomb's interface, arming it. Meanwhile, Pietro rides the elevator center floor of Amity Colosseum downwards.

Pietro: We have enough systems up and running to broadcast our message and keep Amity in atmospheric orbit. But our thrusters just aren't capable of reaching our target altitude on their own.

On the lowest level, Maria is directing Swoop where to put a large machine.

Maria: Ha, fortunately, we're sitting on a couple hundred tons of thrust.

Swoop: I'm liking this plan more and more. *laughs*

Swoop walks to the center of the platform and sets the machine down.

Pietro: Once we passed into broadcast range, we'll activate the stabilizers, re-establish global communications, and boost the message we've recorded out into the rest of the world. After that, we just have to pilot Amity away from all this mess.

Brains: While I work on getting a signal to Cybertron to get help for Grimlock.

Maria: What seems to wrong with him?

Brains: I honestly couldn't tell ya. He's weak, he's coughing up blood, which gets worse every time he transforms now. If anyone can make sense of what's ailing Grimlock, it's Ratchet.

Swoop: Well, let's not waste any time getting this bird in the air.

Penny arms another bomb in the mines and flies up to a tunnel where yet another bomb is sitting.

Penny: But what if no one is able to come and help Atlas? If I stay behind, maybe I can--

Pietro: We are not having this conversation again. I'm your father and I'm telling you that you belong on Amity.

Swoop: That's a bit harsh.

Maria: He's a parent trying to look after his own kid, I'm sure Weiss does the same to you every now and then.

Swoop: Yeah, I guess so.

Pietro: Prepare the launch seqeunce, please. I'll move us into position.

Penny flies out of the Dust mine and up to Amity Tower. Once she arrives, she sits on the edge of the platform, while Pietro and Brains work on a computer projected by the machine that Swoop placed.

Pietro: All systems are ready. Penny?

Penny looks at him then gets up and walks over.

Pietro: Amity is requesting launch access... now.

Penny looks at the screen, which says "Connecting..." She looks down, waiting. Pietro and Maria look at Penny, and after a few moments, her eyes glow slightly. The tower's stabilizers activate, glowing purple, and Pietro and Maria celebrate.

Pietro: Oh yes, it worked!

Penny smiles, but then lowers her head. Pietro places his hand on her arm to comfort her, and she looks at him and smiles. He then begins typing on the computer again.
