As Smokescreen descended through the sky, he spread his servos and pedes out spread-eagled as far as he could in the freefall style. 'The wider the surface, the more air resistance which could slow things down.' He remembered how Alpha Trion once taught him a thing or two about physics.

Though he highly doubts it'll come in handy now.

The winds shook his door wings, the movements disturbing the wound on it. The air enveloped him and pushed into the injuries, bringing a sensation of pins and needles relentlessly stinging them and his optics narrowed as the wind pushed against them.

But there was no going back now. Instantly, he commed base.

Meanwhile back at the Autobot base......

The screen changed and there was a 'beep'. Team Prime along with Jack, Miko, Raf and Evelyn turned their attention towards the screen and saw a blue dot on it. On the top part, Smokescreen's image was displayed showing them that the blue dot was an Autobot signal-his signal.

Their hopes soared.

"Smokescreen's signal, it's back online." Ratchet said with a rare smile.

"The kid escaped the warship!" Bulkhead said.

"He!l yeah!" Evelyn said and pumped her fist then a thought struck her. "Wait, where is he?"

On the other end, Smokescreen was currently still free falling through the sky. "Smokescreen to base, I could reaaally use a groundbridge!" he said.

From above on the outer hull of the Nemesis, Megatron looked on in rage. He hadn't expected the Autobot to have been foolish enough to actually jump. Dreadwing was just as surprised. He decided then and there that the Autobot Smokescreen was either bold or downright reckless. Had his wing not been injured he would've chased after him.

"Retrieve the Omega Keys. Quickly!" he ordered. He picked the nearest vehicon on his left and threw him down before he threw the other closest to him on his right.

The vehicon on the left immediately transformed into his jet alt-mode as he was a Flyer the other however....transformed into a sports car as he was unfortunately a Trooper. While the Flyer's alt-mode saved him, the Grounder's alt-mode simply caused him to pummel down faster. All he could do is yell out in fear.

"Flyers, I need flyers!" Megatron ordered. Instantly, the other two Flyers jumped down and transformed in pursuit.

Meanwhile back at the Autobot's base......

"Setting coordinates." Ratchet said and pressed a button to triangulate Smokescreen's coordinates.....only to get a result he hasn't seen before. "That's strange." He said.

"What's the problem?" Arcee asked.

"Smokescreen's telemetry data doesn't make sense. I can't lock onto his position." Ratchet said.
