Sparkmates Book 2

Hard Knocks

Fire Flare was on a comm-link Honeygold, thanking her for watching Orion as she focused on repairing the star saber and other things. "Anytime Fire Flare, just safe okay."

Fire Flare :"I will Honeygold." Ends the comm-link as walks in the main base area.

Smokescreen :"Oh it will, it's my destiny." Fire Flare looked at Smokescreen questionable look.

Bumblebee :"Beep beep beep?"

Arcee :"How so?"

Smokescreen :"Well one minute I'm on security detail at Icon the next I wake up on the other side of the galaxy to find myself under Optimus' command. I mean what are the chances right, hey things happen for a reason."

Fire Flare :"Things may happen for a reason Smokescreen but don't push your luck."

Arcee :"That one way to put it, Fire Flare."

Smokescreen :"All I'm really saying is I've come a long way and this one opportunity I don't plan on messing up."

Optimus :"Autobots, the next Icon coordinates have been decoded. Ratchet ready the ground bridge."

Smokescreen :"Last one to the Omega key has to scrub the energon tanks for a week."

Fire Flare :{Smokescreen really.} As she crossed her arms over her chassis.

Optimus :{Sweetspark, did you put the fake Omega key in its containment room?}

Fire Flare :{Yes and I have the real one with me for safety protocol, but I do hate not telling the others about this.}

Optimus :{I know Sweetspark, I know.} "Arcee, Bumblebee, Prepare to roll out."

Bumblebee :"Beep beep beep!"

Smokescreen :"Wait, what about me?"

Bulkhead :"Huh."

Smokescreen :"I mean me and Bulkhead?"

Optimus :"The two of you will remain here in the event I am able to decode a subsequent database entry before the others return."

Ratchet :"Optimus is right considering the very fate of Cybertron is at stake, response time is critical."

Smokescreen :"But we have the N.E.S.T team and the Ark team to help us."

Fire Flare :"Those teams have their own responsibilities but when the time is right they will help us out." As Ratchet activates the ground bridge.

Arcee :"Keep your engines idling kid, come on Bee destiny awaits." They transformed and drove through the ground bridge.

Bulkhead :"We call it a pit stop, we'll get back in the race."

Fire Flare :'Chuckle' "Well I guess I'll be waiting with you two for the next mission."

With Arcee and Bee

Arcee :"Over there."

Knockout :"Well well, just the autobots I wanted to see."

Arcee :"Knockout, why help us stop Silas if you still work for Megatron?"

Knockout :"Pay back for what he did to Breakdown."

Arcee :*I'll handle the doctor, you grab the key.*

Knockout :"Also I've been waiting to thank you both for all the memories." Knockout activated the resonance blaster to Arcee which caused her to fly backward and hit the ground knocking her out for a bit. Then Knockout uses it on Bee and pins Bee to a boulder. "Who knew that sound waves could be such a... knockout. What's that dear? I can't hear you!"
