He looked back at Spike as he moves some things out of his way to get to his locker at the back of the room. "Earth is fine but I fought a war here for 30 of your years, I watched you get old, Your son grow up you and Carly get married. I finally get to go home and reap my rewards of getting Cybertron from the Decepticons and it gets nearly destroyed twice and taken over by quintessons"

He got to the locker and reached up pulling the locker open reaching in a sifting through it until he found what he was after grasping it and pulling it out. It was already painted but somewhat faded from time.

"I knew painting it prior would be a time saver, just needs a touch up coat and it's good to go." Sunstreaker said turning to Spike "We shouldn't be back but we are. The decepticons never should have gotten the planet but they did. The Quintessons shouldn't have taken Cybertron over but they did. Prime's reason for giving the Decepticreeps Earth was peace. He'd have given them anything it seems to make peace. He isn't the great leader that came back to life on Earth that you met. Nothing near it. He isn't the robot that thwarted Decepticons left and right. He's more like an Earthen diplomat now. He's so bent on peace with the Decepticons he'd sell out Allies. But hey after he sells them out he can always fall back to their planet and start the war for their planet all over again, even though he willingly handed it over in the first place and we should be fighting to save our home planet anyways!!"

He was getting angry very fast. He didn't give warning he just reached his free hand up and closed it into a fist punching the wall beside him as he dropped his head and turned to the door.

"Hound... Hounds a decepticon Sympathizer it seems. He should have let the Decepticon die, he didn't he instead helped him and is letting him wander around now only to eventually to go back to the Decepticon and be shooting at us again."

Spike listened carefully, taking in the warrior's frustrations. After a long break, he frowned.
"Yeah, I can see your point well, Sunstreaker. You should have been able to go home. Earth isn't doing it for ya. The Autobots have become part of our family, and the best I can do is help you make yourself a temporary home until you get yours back. Let's start with that paint touch up, putting the plate on and then how does a complete wash and wax sound? Might help you relax a bit.

I'm sure Optimus can't have simply given up. Hound told me Optimus had some sort of plans, but didn't elaborate. Now tell me... what's going on with Dirge while we work. I want to know more about that too."

The minicons bleeped across the comm systems, quickly becoming frustrated with their inability to communicate with anyone other then those they link to.

With out any warning faint blue electricity began to flicker around the control room of the Omega shuttle and the tempature began to drop so quickly that ice crystals formed. The electricity began to arc slightly and when the bolt struck each other above the command chair an orb would be seen.

Out side a voice boomed, low and deliberate. It was a heavily synthed voice, but faded and echoed. like it was coming from deep in a cave.

"Where.......... does it .............. Go?" the deep voice asked so everyone in the lake area could here.

With that all the electrical activity ceased in the cockpit and the temperature turned normal, leaving no trace of it's existance, save three minicons hugging each other.

Seeing the grovelling Decepticons before him, Gutcruncher addressed Galvatron:

"Why do you have two pitiful impressions of Decepticons in your ranks? Why not dispose of them, and replace them with soldiers who will not grovel for forgiveness?"

(ooc: sorry for the god references, but rest assured no godlike characters will show up in the rpg in the future, not on my account anyway)

Like her sisters, Gale found the source of the manapulse that was drawing her in a region where yet another of nature's extreme's exists: the rain forest.

She landed at the entrance of a huge temple, but her way inside was blocked by doors that were magically sealed. An inscription on the doors, in both elven and human read: "When long and short work together in peace, the way shall open" beneath the inscription 2 symbols representing hands were shown.

Gale made her nest atop the temple, she would tackle this problem in the morning after she had rested. Little did she know that, as she fell asleep, she was being watched by two observers. The watchers headed back to their respective camps to report.

The next morning Gale was awakened by the sound of armies preparing for war. She could hear the speech of both the human and elven generals.

Elven general: " Men, we all know these barbaric creatures live short lives. As such they respect nothing, for they do not think of the consequences of their actions. They respect neither the smallest tree or creature in the forest, nor the greatest. Nor Gaea herself. So we must stop them from taking this temple and harming the strange creature that now resides there. As it seems they can only be stopped in battle, we regretably march to war"

Human general: "As we all know, these green haired, pointy eared fiends respect neither our ways, or our lives. They have obviously also seen the creature that now lives atop the temple and probably plan to harm or even kill it. We must not let that happen, they may live long lives compared to us, but that means every one of their deaths is a greater blow to them then our deaths are to us. "I would rather we could avoid all this bloodshed, but we seem to have no choice. In Gaia's name we march to battle!"

Both armies started advancing towards each other, the generals leading the charge of their respective army.

Gale heard the speeches and realized the solution of the inscription. She quickly prepared two spells: A giant wind wall to keep the armies for attacking each other and a simple 'Comprehand Languages' spell that would ensure that both sides understood each other.

Gale leapt from the temple as both armies were about to clash. She transformed to her robot form in mid air, used the wind wall spell to seperate both generals from their armies. As she landed she cast the comprehend languages spell on both the generals and herself. She then adressed the dumbfounded generals.

"I will not tolerate any violance from either of you. We will solve this peacefully" she stated.

The elf responded first: "I would gladly do so, honored champion of Gaea, but these barbarians won't...."

At this point the human interupted. "Barbarians?! You green haired fiends dare use Gaia's name and...." the rest of the words died on his lips as he realized something. For the first time in his life, he understood the elf and the elf had the same feeling. It was not long before peacetalks between the generals started.

The peacetalks, finally a reality, took many hours. It ended in a peacetreaty between both sides. Both generals wanted to thank Gale for making it possible, she asked that both generals accompanied her to the temple doors and helped her open them. This they did, placing their hands on the symbols. The doors swung open, Gale went inside after thanking the generals and warning them that the inside of the temple might be dangerous so she would go in alone.

Inside she found a strange glowing diamond shape with an M on it. As she neared it, it turned into a lizard with 6 legs, a basilisk. "Greetingsss Misstress. I am Typhoon and am here to ssserve you" it said. Gale had a feeling she would be staying in this place for a while...

Sixshot turned towards Galvatron.

"I don't recall ever saying that I wouldn't..." Sixshot looked over towards Bludgeon. "...I am a Decepticon after all"

Sixshot turned his attention to Thunderwing

"But as I said, there are still loose ends to be tied up"

**********************

Grimlock was growing tired of simply standing around.

"Me think it about time we started preparing to repel Decepticon attack before we get blown to scrap..."

Magnus was still checking on lists of the dead.

"Grimlock, as much as I hate to say it, is right..." Ultra Magnus activated the comm-link.

"This is Ultra Magnus, would Quick Switch please report to the command centre immediately."

Darkwing turned to Gutcruncher.

"Watch it," he said. "In case your optics are shot, I'M not the one begging for his life.

"Like we said," Runamuck said to the massive Decepticon. "We didn't know how you would take it."

(for exact details on where this post stems from, read "From Storage to Movies" separate string)


Aero Blade sighed lightly, attempting to calm himself down after Hoist's examination. His systems were fine, luckily; he wouldn't have to see any medics.

Medics....

Aero Blade slouched down a bit in his chair, sighing quietly again followed by a slight shudder. He knew medics were just trying to help out, and he really tried to remember it, but every time he got close to one his mind brought fourth images of Dr. Kelvar...

Aero Blade closed his eyes, suppressing a shudder. He openned his eyes after a moment, focusing on the viewing screen in front of him to keep his mind from wandering. He was puzzled by the cartoon playing, but also found it a lack of entertainment. Aero Blade thrummed his fingers on the arm rest of the chair, his eyes half closed, slouching down even further. Yep, it was official - he was bored out of his mind...

Sunstreaker sighed as he stopped at the door looking at Spike again. "Earth was fine 30 years ago when we legitimately had reason to be here, when we were fighting to prevent Decepticons from pillaging Earth, but right when it was handed over the war over this planet ended. No offence but this planet was the Decepticon's, not that I agreed with it. I don't want a temporary home, I don't want be here for another 30 years fighting a war that should have ended after the first Unicron battle. I don't want to fight a battle over a planet that isn't our own. We surrenedered Earth so fighting over it makes it look like a big waste."

He pushed the door to the locker all he way open again and stepped out waiting for Spike.

"As much as I'd normally be thrilled with a paint job this time that really doesn't make up for anything. Nothing short of going in and taking out ever Sharkticon and Quintesson on Cybertron will make up for the loss. Optimus idea of a plan now won't be erradicate the squishy repulsive maggots that quintessons are, it will be Diplomacy "You get half we get half" even though our ancestors, Optimus' creator with inferior.. well everything rose up and beat the Quintessons back. Hell we even have our own Guardian robot but no, his plan will be try and be diplomatic about it. Dirge... Dirge should be dead, Hound should have let him die on the battle feild like the Decepticon he is.

Leokaiser's feet:

Chromedome: -hanging on, looks up in shock at the voice- "Uh......" -points over towards Fortress Maximus- "Take us over that way."

**********************

Lakeshore:

Roadbuster, Minerva, Siren, Hardhead, and Hosehead: -watching as Leokaiser is raised out of the water-

Roadbuster: "Ugly, ain't he."

Nightbeat: -comes slogging out of the lake-

Roadbuster: "Alright. Transform and roll. We're gonna escort that big hunk of junk back to the base."

...." That much has been obvious, Grimlock. the only reason for the wait was for the recovery team to get those combiners out of the lake... the moment we have a chance... we strike. Hard and fast. if we can... we'll attempt to outright disable metrotitan, trypticon or black zarak.. if he's still around. until that time, assemble your squads... I'll be in my chambers... there's one final matter I need to resolve... before I can spearhead this assault with a clear mind..."

Prime left the two to their own devices... and headed again for his chambers... arriving, he took to his chair... and his optics dimmed... he needed to speak with those of the past... he needed to be sure...that before he launched this attack... that it would not cause any "unforseen consequences " on cybertron...

In the Command Centre

Ultra Magnus, Grimlock, Fortress Maximus, it's like a history lesson come to life. I wish Dai Atlas was around to see this one. I don't want to be rude, but this isn't getting us anywhere. Victory Saber doesn't have attention on him, I've just heard that Broadside is coming in. Worst off there's a Destron Combiner sitting in the lake, and from what I know, He's a mean one. Primus forgive me I might have to be drastic.

Raising his vocalizers Skyfall tried hard to get their attention:
"SIRS! Ultra Magnus, Optimus Prime SIR! I may be over stepping my bounds here, and I know the Decepticons and Destrons are becoming a very serious concern. BUT out side this base, there is another problem starting. We have an Autobot who needs Medical help and I know you can't do anything about it, But there is also a rouge Cyberton Supreme Commander who is more than a match for ANY Robot here Hell he could give Omega Supreme a good fight. He's unconcious right now, but no one knows how long that will last. And when he wakes up, he's probably not going to be to happy. Beyond that, they are currently recovering a Destron Combiner that would give Victory Saber a run for his money, and they're probably going to be placing him right on our front lawn! Begging your pardon SIRS but that is a MAJOR security concern! SIR!"

***************************************
Lakeshore

Starlight heard the response from Chromedome and slowly walked over to the command consoles. As she set a course in the Autopilot (whom she was rather scared of at this moment), a warning light blinked on and a small screen showed Chromedome hanging from Leokaisers foot. She turned to the other two minicons transformed and flew out of the command centre. She opend the main ramp.

The two minicons flew out of Omega and locked on to Chromedome and flew beside him. The attached to his shoulders Via magnetic locks (NOT powerlinking) and lifted him off. They flew towards the main bay as the Omega Shuttle slowly made it's way towards Fortress Maximus.

Main bay:

Chromedome: -hunched over slightly, looking down at the minicons- "Thanks, guys." -notices that all of the doors are human size- "Well, moving around in here could be hard like this...." -transforms, head disconnecting and transforming to robot mode as his transector transforms to vehicle mode, holds out hand to nearest minicon- "How do you do? My name's Chromedome. What's yours?"

*****************************

Guarding Victory Saber:

Brainstorm: -finishes scan of Victory Saber- "Facinating. Truly facinating."

Tracks: "What?"

Brainstorm: "Just the setup on this transector. It's amazing."

Tracks: "That's exciting, really."

Brainstorm: "It is. The power systems are more efficient than the transector technology I'm made out of."

Ark and Nemesis looked at Chromedome with shock. Until this point, Skyfall had been the only Transformer to actually thank them for something, as a person and not demanding of them. Not treating them like they were mindless tools.

They looked at each other and then at Chromedome. For the second time in their existance they attempted to use the larger Transformers language:
"Yo... You'r..... Wel..come!"

With shock and the beginings of a smile the two little robots headed towards the comand centre. Shoving each other in a playful manor.

After speaking with the Protectobots, the Aerialbots went to take a ride outside of Fortress Maximus. "Hey Fireflight race you 3 laps around Fortress Maximus...", said Slingshot.

"OK Slingshot let's go! Air Raid count us off please!", said Fireflight.

"On you mark...get set...GO!", yelled Air Raid.

Off they went around Fortress Maximus in their little race.

Astrotrain smiled broadly.

"Recent intelligence reports indicate the Autobot officer Ultra Magnus has re-surfaced. Are you familiar with him?"

The Triple Changer re-positioned himself in his command chair.

"If not, then recall that he was commanding Autobot City in 2005 when the Massacre ocurred."

Thunderwing's smile turned sickly at Galvatron's words.

"Of course," he croaked, flicking his attention to the Powermasters.

Carbombya

Gigatron swooped his swords over his wings and sheathed them on his shoulders, in one less-than-fluid motion. Though he did not show it particularly, he was hurting badly: Megatron had done quite a number on him when he was captured, and the energy bonds made use of his reserves to power them. In spite of his weakness, he crossed his arms over his chest and smirked, listening in on the exchange between Gutcruncher and the Powermasters.

"It seems you were all in league with the traitor," he began, insinuating Gutcruncher especially. "But I'm sure you'll be more than happy to return to Metrotitan with us, won't you?"

Without waiting for a response (and why should he? It was an assured affirmative), Gigatron turned slowly and began across the hangar, back toward Bludgeon and his company.

"Well done," he commented, giving Deszaras a grinning glance. "Bring her with us back to Metrotitan. I would most certainly enjoy talking with her..."

Abdul Fakkadi was most, most confused as he entered the hangar with a full platoon of his personal guard, stopping a few feet away from the assorted Decepticons.

He had only just received the report of some type of battle raging in one of the military hangars sprawling about Carbombya City.

"What has happened here?" the dictator muttered, bewhildered, looking at the destruction.

The necessary supplies were ready, and the Carbombyan President for Life was always eager to help out his Decepticon allies...but by the Beard of the Prophet- where the Decepticons fighting amongst each other?

Thunderwing, for his part, looked down at the Carbombyan King of Kings impassively.

Stall smiled weakly.

"Oh, well, I suppose so- yes," he nodded to Perceptor. "Where should we begin?"
Locked
