Last Time: Lincoln was working with the Autobots to learn the secrets of a strange box of Decepticon origin. After being attacked by the Decepticons, a new one named Cyclonus came out of nowhere and kidnapped Lincoln for his reasons and now the Autobots must find a way to save him.

It was a large area with the walls being purple and other robots, some being Vehicons while others look like the Decepticon Starscream but with different colors. There were some plate forms near the walls of the room with four on one side of the room while four are on the other. One of the platforms was lighting up and then several robotic figures were on the plate form. It was the Decepticons named Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave, and his Mini-Cassettes Ravage, Laserbeak, Rumble, and Frenzy, along with the unknown Decepticon ninja and the new Decepticon named Cyclonus.

Cyclonus was holding Lincoln Loud in one hand, who was struggling to get away from the Decepticon. Lincoln looked around and saw all the Decepticon forces that were surrounding him. "Be lucky human that our ship has oxygen onboard for you to breath." Said the Decepticon Leader, Megatron getting the attention of Lincoln. "Now, you will tell the information Cyclonus said you had."

Lincoln was a little terrified of the Decepticon, who sounded threatening. "I don't what you're talking about."

"Do not lie to me human, Cyclonus here said-" Megatron said before Cyclonus spoke up.

"Lord Megatron, all in due time you'll get what you want. Until then, it would be for the best if this human is locked away in a holding cell." Said Cyclonus.

"Hmm, Very well, but this human in a holding cell. Until I get that information, I want to know just who really is, Cyclonus, you think I wouldn't question just who you are? You may have aided us in that fight and taken down multiple Autobots but doesn't just earn my trust-" Megatron said before seeing Cyclonus had taken a knee and bowed his head to Megatron.

"I know my place, Lord Megatron, I know I must earn your trust and I shall earn it." Said Cyclonus.

Starscream looked at Cyclonus with suspicion and hatred towards them, he was too good at both his skills of the fight, ability to teleport, and kissing up to Lord Megatron. "Lord Megatron, can we ever really trust this Cyclonus, for all we know he is a spy for the Autobots, and he claims to be from the future, if he really was, then why doesn't he just talk about the future right now-" Starscream said before Cyclonus' blade was close to his throat, forcing him to be quiet.

"I am from the future, however, if I say too much about events that are about to happen, then space and time could end, time is not simple. I can tell you about events that have happened, but not what hasn't happened. Am I making myself clear, Commander Starscream?" Cyclonus said as he lowered his sword, Starscream was a little irritated from the threat of the sword pointed at him, but at least felt a little respect to him as Cyclonus addressed him with his rank.

"Be lucky you addressed me with my title, otherwise I would strike you down for subornation of yours," Starscream said while he was trying to calm himself. "Anyways, I'll order some of my Seekers to send this human to a cell as we all get a check-up. Skywarp, Thundercracker, to me." Starscream command as two jets were flying towards them one was pitch black with some purple lines while the other looked blue.

The black jet then released a bright purple and vanished and appeared in front of them and transformed into a robot that looked identical to Starscream along with the other one that caught up. "I win." Said the pitch black one while the other transformed into their robot mode.

"We weren't racing you Glitched brain." Said the blue one with a southern accent to his voice. They both looked just like Starscream, who explained to them what they were to do with the human.

"Wait, there three Starscream?" Lincoln said surprised.

"No, they just have the same Protoform mold. Starscream is one of a kind, thank both Primus and Unicron for that." Said Cyclonus in a low volumed voice so only Lincoln could hear it. Both the Decepticons then walked up to Cyclonus. "You two, I need you to watch this human here, do not let them out of your sights. You hold on to them Thundercracker." They said as they gave Lincoln to the blue one named Thundercracker, and Starscream said two names so that means that the other one was Skywarp.

Thundercracker

-Decepticon

-Blue and gray Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor

-If you can't fly, then they won't like you

Skywarp

-Decepticon

-Black Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor

-A teleporting prankster who hasn't been killed by his own team yet

The Decepticon named Thundercracker held Lincoln by his arm. "Why do we have to watch this little thing, couldn't we just throw them in the airlock?"

"If that human isn't in a cell soon, I'll rip your wings off and throw you into the sun," Cyclonus said as the two looked at each other and began to take Lincoln to a cell. Cyclonus then turned to Megatron and the other Decepticons as they all went to get medical treatment. He then left the room without knowing that someone was still in the room.

Meanwhile at the Autobot base, the Ark, the Autobots were talking about how to save Lincoln who was taken by the Decepticons, and that both Sundor and Wheeljack were missing. They were all talking and thinking of plans all while Jazz, Chromia, and Bumblebee were getting medical treatment from Ratchet with the ladder of the medic's patients were blaming themselves for their capture. "It was all my fault, if only I had just gotten him to the base, then we could have just-"

"Don't blame yourself Bumblebee, you did what you could." Jazz said to his worried teammate.

"We all did what we could have done, but do not worry Bumblebee. We will find a way to get them back." Said Optimus Prime trying his best to raise everyone's spirits.

"You better Prime, that kick is missing now." Said the aggressive voice of Vincent who was talking onto a platform, that was high up to let him be in eye contact height of the Autobots. "That kid shouldn't have even been there, what will we tell his family? 'Sorry, your son got kidnapped by killer space robots.'"

"I ensure you, Commander Vincent, we will get him back, we just need some way to get onto the Nemesis." Said Optimus.

"How are you going to get on this 'Nemesis'. You said they always kept it in space."

"And we don't have Wheeljack here, where is he? They should have been where they fell on the battlefield." Said, Hot Rod.

"We've tried tracking him, but nothing picked up on the global scanner and the same goes for Sundor, looks like Blaster isn't going to like this one bit." Said Another Autobot with a tough male vice with a southern accent.

As the Autobots were talking about what to do, Jazz stopped talking as he got something, it was a message. "Everyone, I just got a message from Wheeljack." Everyone then stopped and faced Jazz who then gave his communicator to the Autobot leader. "Here you go Optimus."

"Thank you, Jazz," Optimus said as he inserted the communicator to a terminal which then let everyone hear the call. "Wheeljack, is that you? Report."

"Yeah, it's me Optimus." Said the voice of Wheeljack on the other line. "I'm calling to both confirm that I am still Online and still functioning."

"That's great to hear that you're safe." Said Hot Rod who misinterpreted what Wheeljack was talking about.

"I didn't say I was safe."

"What? Where are you?"

"Oh, you know... On the Nemesis."

"You're on the WHAT?!" Said Chromia as she was just as shocked as everyone about this information.

"Wheeljack, explain how you got on the Nemesis," Optimus said with concern for his comrade who was very much on enemy territory.

"Well, when I was knocked down, my Invisibility devise that I got from Mirage, kicked in and I thought I can take on Cyclonus again, but he had Lincoln hostage and I was about to grab him and get him free but then they activated a Space Bridge and now I am on their ship."

"Is there a way you can find a way for us all to get on the Nemesis with you?"

"I already thought of that, their equipment is encrypted but I am hiding in a vent right now and hacking into their systems, it will take some time for me to take control of a single space bridge."

"But won't they know we're about to be teleported in their own base?" Perceptor asked a valid question.

"I know, which is why before I send you all up here, I'll trigger an alarm in another part of the Nemesis, and then I'll get you all up here to help save Lincoln. I only need a few-" Wheeljack said before the sound of an alarm went off.

"What was that?" Said Bumblebee.

"The alarm? But what-" Wheeljack said before the intercoms came online and said that 'The human has escaped containment! If seen capture alive.' "Oh no, the kid."

"Wheeljack, how long until the Space Bridge is ours?" Optimus asked Wheeljack.

"Not for another half a Breem, and I don't think Lincoln can survive that long, I'm sorry Optimus, but I can't let that kid get hurt, I can send the codes to you all so once the download is complete can access the Bridge from the Ark. I need you to go and save that kid."

"Wheeljack, just promise me one thing," Optimus said to his teammate. "Make sure you save them."

"Yes sir, I'll make sure of that. Sending the codes to you all." Wheeljack said as he cut communicates with his team and said 'Wheeljack Transform!' to turn into his alt mode and drive down the large vents which he perfectly fits in. "How did the kid get out of a cell?" Wheeljack questioned.

But back on the Ark as the Autobots were talking about a plan and when to go, General Witwicky walked off away from the other Autobots so they wouldn't hear him or knew what he was doing, he pressed a button on the wall that let him talk to the ship's computer, teletraan-I. "Alright, teletraan-I, I need you to send information about Lincoln Loud to Project: Pretender. Authorization code: Sentinel-173-O."

"Authorizing... Code Accepted. Data on: Lincoln Loud sent to Project: Pretender in progress." Said the computer voice, and Vincent praying in his mind that they do get him back and that he doesn't have to resort to his plan.

A few minutes ago

Lincoln was inside a large room, looking around to see if there was a way to get out of it, but it wouldn't be easy. The cell was holding him in with a wall of energy and had both Thundercracker and Skywarp on the outside guarding him, really, they were just complaining about how boring it is guarding Lincoln.

Lincoln then realized that if he didn't get out sooner or later his family would freak out about him being missing. Lincoln needed a way out, but then he felt something in his jacket, he checked and remembered something. He now needed a way to distract the guards.

"Hey, can I ask you both something?" Said Lincoln.

Both Decepticons then gave different answers at the same time, with Thundercracker saying "No." and Skywarp saying "Sure." And with that Thundercracker slapped Skywarp in the back of the head. "Ow! Why did you do that?"

"He's a prisoner, not a guest. Don't talk to him." Said the now angry Thundercracker. "Honestly, you get me into just as much trouble whenever you do anything."

"Oh, c'mon, I don't get us into that much trouble."

"I've been blown up more times than there are cycles than in a Vorn, and all because of you."

"Well, what's wrong with talking to them then, nothing bad will happen, and plus what if he gives us that information Megatron wants."

Thundercracker thought hard, and for at least half a minute before giving an okay to talking to Lincoln. "Alright, let's see what he has to say," Thundercracker said as both he and Skywarp both looked at Lincoln for what it is that he wanted to say. "What do you want human?"

"Well, you see, isn't this cell just too big for one small prisoner? Don't you have smaller cells for smaller life forms?" Said Lincoln. "I mean isn't it a waste of energy to use this cell on just one thing that is the size of your foot?"

The two Decepticons then thought of that for a minute, he was making a good point. Why would something this small need such a large cell all to themself and it was a waste of energy. "I mean, he isn't wrong, maybe we can put him in a small box that he can fit inside." Said Skywarp with Thundercracker nodding with approval. "Alright human, step away from the cell and we'll take to a better area for you to be imprisoned in."

The two Decepticons then unlocked the cell and walked in, without even knowing that this was Lincoln's plan. He then threw something in the air, something he had in his jacket pocket. It was Sundor, who was hiding in Lincoln's pocket as they were injured from a fight with other Decepticons. Knocking the two down, letting Lincoln run through the cell entrance and allowing him to escape from containment, and Sundor pressing a red button on the wall locking the two Decepticons inside the cell.

"I can't believe they fell for that," Sundor said before landing right next to Lincoln who gave him a pat on the back. "You alright human?"

"My name is Lincoln, and yes, thank you Sundor. It's a good thing I was caring for you after you were knocked out, but I have to ask you if you're going to be, okay?" Lincoln said to the Autobot bird that was a little damaged and doesn't seem they can go far on their own.

Sundor looked at themself for a moment, Lincoln was very much correct, they couldn't fly that far and most likely only a short distance. There was a way both he and Lincoln could get past all the guards outside of the cells. But then he saw a vent on the floor. "Look we can use this; they use these vents for mostly wires and for getting around the ship without causing space issues."

"Can we fit-" Lincoln said to the Autobot before they already opened it and revealing that they can easily fit inside it as it was big enough for an Autobot to crawl in and possibly transform inside. "Okay, we can fit."

The two then entered the vent all to avoid the Decepticons on the outside, it didn't take long however as only just a few minutes after escaping two more seekers came into the room to see how things were going and saw that Lincoln was gone and sounded the alarm. The sound of the alarm didn't stop or slow down the two as they just kept moving forward.

Moving left and right wasn't an option for them as they would just get lost, of course staying in one place doesn't seem like the best plan but getting lost would be much worse. "Lincoln, I can tell you which way to go, but I need you to carry me in my Alt mode." Said Sundor.

"Are you still injured?"

"Still a little that and I don't want to lose too much energy. I know a lot of the ship's vent systems."

Sundor then transformed into his Mini-Cassette Alt mode to be carried by Lincoln, they then started to get moving, Sundor giving Lincoln directions as to where to go. Lincoln began to walk down the vents to avoid making any sound for anyone to heard by any of the forces outside.

They had to avoid anything that could mean danger for them, they heard guards talking to each other, giving updates while some just said what was on their mind. Lincoln heard the Decepticon Soundwave giving orders, Starscream yelling at his seekers, and another voice he doesn't know. He overheard the following conversation.

"Hey, Knockout, it's me, Breakdown. I'm starting to think everyone is noticing you leaving for racing every Meta-cycle, so be back soon." The voice named Breakdown said to someone over what Lincoln could only assume was a comm-device and thought maybe he could use it to call the Autobots, but it would be too risky, so he just kept ongoing.

It was at least almost half an hour of him walking with Sundor giving him directions which Lincoln didn't fully know if he could rely on fully but what was he really going to do, walk-in random directions all day?

However, there was a voice up ahead that made him stop cold, as their voice gave him chills. It was the voice of Megatron. "That human better be found soon Starscream, or else."

"No need to worry Lord Megatron, soon we will find that human and-" Said the voice of Starscream over the other line of a communication device Megatron was using.

"I need the human alive Starscream, Cyclonus said that humans had information on him, and I will get it from them." Said Megatron sounding impatient from the results he was getting about Lincoln escaping. "How did he even get out?"

"From what both Thundercracker and Skywarp had told me, he had a Mass-shifter with him, a Mini-Cassette Autobot, that had the same Protoform mold as Laserbeak, but had an orange and gold body color, Lord Megatron." Said Starscream.

This information made Megatron's eyes go wide. "What, an Autobot made onboard along with them? How did you- Wait," Megatron then stopped his rage and realized something about what he just heard. "An orange and gold body with the same body type as Laserbeak, hmm. Starscream capture them both! Alive!" Megatron said then cutting off his call with Starscream.

"Do you think he'll find them?" Said another voice. This one was a feminine voice with a New York accent. The voice came from a small Decepticon with cyan armor and a cube-shaped head. They had what looked like twin red rockets on their back and some tools on their front, the bottom of their chest area. "I mean, they are known for finding them but capturing? Maybe they'll just mess it all up."

Lincoln could see everything in the room from the vent, Megatron was sitting on a chair as the Decepticon was giving him repairs and in the corner of the room, Lincoln could see what looks like a giant metal wolf or fox or a hybrid of both. The Mini-Decepticon was just finishing up on reattaching the Fusion Cannon on Megatron's arm.

"Oh, I know Starscream will fail, the only reason he still lives are his determination and his methods of how he gets the job done. If it was not for that, I would have ended him so long ago." Said Megatron, sounding so calm and like as if what he said was normal to him.

"I would have done it to him the moment I first saw him, he does seem loyal to the Decepticon cause, but I don't think he is truly loyal to you." The Decepticon said as they were about done fixing the Fusion Cannon on Megatron, giving them back their main choice of weapon. "And there we go. Oh, also what are we going to do to the human after we get the information? Are we going to throw it out of the airlock?" They said sounding as if that idea would give them joy, showing a very twisted side to this Con.

"Now, I will use them for something greater, I could use a shield, so Prime can't fight me fully if I use that human as a shield."

"That could work my Lord, and there. Done." The Decepticon said as they finished fixing the weapon onto Megatron's arm. "Now, don't fire it until it is fully cooled down or will fall apart so-" The Decepticon said but stopped themself as the robotic beast had gotten back up and started to growl at the vent. "Foxwire? What's wrong boy? Why are you growling at the- Oh." The Decepticon said the beast robot was ready to charge at the vent only to be blasted away as Sundor had transformed and told Lincoln to run and avoid any areas worm as he could get cooked alive.

Sundor then flew out of the vent and blasted at the Mini-Decepticon knocking them out. Sundor then started moving into the room and flew around shooting at Megatron and Lincoln ran away. He ran and ran and ran for a few minutes now it was like he just ran a mile without stopping.

He stopped running after he stopped hearing the shots being fired, he didn't know which way to go now. Go left, or right? Up or down? Which way is the right way? Lincoln didn't know which way. He then heard a vehicle sound, it was a car, and it was inside the vent, driving towards him.

Lincoln was about to run away until he heard his voice. "Kid! Is that you?" It was Wheeljack, Lincoln ran towards Wheeljack how transformed out of his Alt mode to see if Lincoln was alright. "It is you, oh thank Primus."

Lincoln was happy to finally see help, to see a friend. Lincoln then told Wheeljack about Sundor and the ladder thought of going back for them, but he needed to get Lincoln to safety and took him to drive him away from any danger. "Wait, what about Sundor?"

"Sundor might be fine. Hopefully. I need to get you to safety." Wheeljack said as he drove down the large vent as fast as they could to get to the Space Bridges, changing his plan to getting Lincoln off first and then bringing the other Autobots to the Nemesis for a full-scale attack.

It wasn't long however until a wall of energy blocked their path, they couldn't get through it, but it was most likely placed there to stop them before they even thought of turning around the second wall of energy blocked them from behind this time. "Scrap, they must have blocked us here for an ambush. Kid, I need you to get out and stay behind me, I'm going out there to take them down, just as much as I can. I don't want you getting hurt."

Lincoln understood what Wheeljack was saying to him. Lincoln has always noticed since he first met the Autobots that they cared for other species, from humans, to animals, and even to other smaller lifeforms that he thought they would normally see beneath in both a literal point of view and metaphorical standpoint. But now, he does see that they would care for anyone.

Lincoln then got out of Wheeljack who transformed back into robot mode and was ready to jump out for an attack and after only a second of thinking of actions, he jumped out of the vent, and what followed right after was, nothing. It was silent and when Lincoln looked outside the vent too, he saw that the only ones outside the vent were him and Wheeljack, it was an empty hallway.

"Where is everyone?" Wheeljack said to himself, questioning just what are the Cons planning.

"Oh, most of them are in random areas of the ship away from here." Said a voice that the two remember, but not in a good way, it wasn't a friend but rather a foe. They both turn to see it was Cyclonus, who had appeared out of nowhere down the hall, they then teleported to be only a few feet away from them. His face showing no emotions what so other. "Greetings." Said Cyclonus.

"YOU!" Wheeljack said as he pointed a weapon at the Decepticon, but all the Decepticon did was press a button on a device they were holding the hallway was cut off from the rest of the ship and a third door opened and Cyclonus entered the doorway confusing the Autobot and Lincoln.

"Follow." Was all that Cyclonus said and the two did, all without knowing where they were going or that something was following them all.

They had now entered a large room on a platform bridge they were standing on, and in the center of the room looked to be a large futuristic engine for the ship. "What is this place?" Lincoln had asked noticing that this room gave off a lot of heat.

"This is the Nemesis' navigation and communications hub; this takes care of where the ship goes. If someone inputs the right codes you could make the Nemesis crash somewhere in a matter of time, maybe the middle of the ocean or somewhere away from earth. All you would need to do is, plant a small explosive to keep anyone from changing them. I'd even say you'd be crashing a Nemesis." Said Cyclonus still confusing the two even more than they already were.

"You're helping us?" Wheeljack said confused about everything that was going on now.

"That is correct, yes." Said Cyclonus.

"Why you're going to be turned offline if they find out about this, why help us get away?"

"GETAWAY?! WHERE? WHERE IS HE?! I'LL SCRAP HIM! I'LL FRAGING SCRAP HIM INTO PIECES!" Cyclonus said with his voice is full of hate, not but the blinding rage of hate itself as he screamed. He then stopped and saw that Wheeljack was a few steps away from him with Lincoln in hand as they were a little surprised by his rage. "Oh, um sorry about that, I have what you would call a 'Trigger' that would make me do that. But I as to why I am helping you, it is all part of my plans."

"What are you planning?" Lincoln had asked the Decepticon.

"...I wish I can tell you all, but that outcome would be worse than the original," Cyclonus said as he was imputing something into the hub network. "Now, I must attend to Starscream," Cyclonus said as the door they had entered through, had opened again, with Starscream entering the room. Cyclonus walked forward to the Commander of the Seekers and second in command of the Decepticon forces. "Commander Starscream-"

Cyclonus was cut off as Starscream didn't even ask, he knew what was happening and he didn't like it, so without warning or hesitation, Starscream pointed his weapon, his arm-mounted weapons, and fired at Cyclonus right in the chest. Chunks of Cyclonus came flying from his back from the blast and Starscream didn't end there as he fired again this time blasting of their arm and a third shot this last one was right to the face, blasting off their whole head, ending them, that's what they all think.

"Rest in pieces, you trash traitor." Starscream then pointed his weapons at the real enemy Wheeljack and Lincoln. "Now, what were you planning? Trying to find out where we are going?" Starscream said with his cocky attitude ready to attack Wheeljack. "Now, don't move."

Wheeljack and Lincoln didn't have any way of getting out of this, they were trapped. Lincoln and Wheeljack raised their hands showing that they were surrendering to him, but Lincoln heard something, it was his communicator as he got a message, a text that said: 'Don't worry, I have a plan.' And without even warning, someone had blasted Starscream from behind. It was Sundor.

"Surprise motherslager. Didn't expect to see me did you, how do you feel about getting hit by something smaller than you?" Sunder said annoying Starscream, who was showing signs of anger from every word Sundor was saying. "What's wrong, you feeling less special, you mad? Are you mad? Well, if you are then come at me!" And just like that Starscream blasted at Sundor, but they had flown away so Starscream would a pipe that had high pressured steam and was released right into Starscream's face blinding him.

Wheeljack then took this moment and transforms and drives right into Starscream and knocked them down. Wheeljack then transformed into robot mode and started beating down Starscream, giving him punch after punch, not even giving them a second to defend themself. When Starscream tried to point his weapon at him Sundor entered the fight, landing on Starscream's face and started clawing at him and making Wheeljack switch up tactics of just slamming his blows onto his chest area now.

After just a few more seconds of this savage beat down, Wheeljack started to pick up Starscream and tossed him like a rag doll at the same pipes that Starscream had hit just a minute ago, forcing more steam out and knocking out the Decepticon. "That was your plan? Making him shoot at the pipe to make him blind for a second so we could beat down on him?" Said Wheeljack.

"Yes, it was," Sundor said sounding smug about how his plan worked.

"Getting shot at was your plan? You know he could have missed or hit you, right? Do you still think it was a good plan?"

"Nope, that was the stupidest thing I have ever done and never doing it again, also I got away from Megatron, could barely even land a serious blow on him. His armor was stronger than I first thought, also I am running out of energy." Sundor said to the others as he turned into his Alt mode and allowing Lincoln to carry him.

Wheeljack then planted an explosive device on the hub network and grabbed Lincoln so they could all get away. While they left Starscream was getting back up, but before he could get off the ground, someone had kicked him, forcing him to be on his side and as he looked to see who kicked him, he was surprised to see Cyclonus' body standing up without ahead, but only for a second as his missing arm, the hole in his chest and missing head all grew back, good as new. Cyclonus then stomped on Starscream's face knocking them out for a much longer time.

With the halls of the ship almost empty, they were so close to heading home. To reaching their goal. Wheeljack can't believe just how easy it was for him to both sneaks in and get Lincoln, while both Lincoln and Sundor had to feel like the two of the luckiest beings in the world as if now since they have both broke themself out of imprisonment and get as far away from danger, and Sundor managed to survive a fight with Megatron. Lincoln did want to ask him what had happened, but he thought maybe for a later time.

But there was still one last thing blocking their path, as when they reached the door to the Space Bridges, they were stops by the first two Decepticon's Lincoln had to get away from when he first escaped. It was Skywarp and Thundercracker. The two were looking angered from the sight of the Autobot who had transformed into his robot mode, ready for just one last fight before they head home. "What you want to fight us too?" Said Wheeljack as he was readying himself for the fight.

"HA, you might as well surrender, Land walker!" Said Thundercracker. "We have around a few dozen Vehicons troops inside the Space Bridge center. "Thundercracker said without noticing that Skywarp was hearing something, inside the room behind them, it sounded like a fight.

"Hey, Thundercracker, do you hear that?"

"Skywarp now is not the time for pranks alright. Anyway, you might as well and give up before we finish you both off-" Thundercracker said as the door behind them opened and the two didn't even notice it as they continued. "You have no choice you fool- wait why are you all smiling?" Thundercracker said as he noticed that the three were all smiling.

"Seriously, why are you smil-" Thundercracker said as he moved he felt something behind him, it wasn't a Decepticon or Vehicons but he could tell it was large and when both he and Thundercracker looked behind them, they saw other Autobots, Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Hot Rod, and three more Autobots that Lincoln didn't remember meeting but two were in all red armor with one looking like a red version of Bumblebee but with horns and another Autobot that was pink and white and had a feminine body.

"That's why we were smiling." Said Lincoln as the two red Autobots both punched Thundercracker and Skywarp, sending them flying past Wheeljack and landing behind him, knocked out cold. "And their out, thanks for coming guys, I also see you were," Wheeljack said before looking behind the other Autobots seeing the dozens of Vehicons they had just taken out inside the room. "Busy." Wheeljack then handed Lincoln to Bumblebee, the duo then was excited to see each other and that they were fine.

"Amazing work on saving them Wheeljack, we should head back to the Ark." Optimus said to his forces as this was a rescue mission to get Lincoln back and wasn't a real assault mission.

"Wait, sir, this is a good chance to do some real damage to Decepticon, we can-" Said the Red Bumblebee looking Autobot who was stopped as the other Red Autobot had pleased a hand on their shoulder.

"We were told to head back Cliffjumper, follow your orders." They said with a Southern Accent that had a hint of authority like it was from a commanding officer in an army. The red Autobot named Cliffjumper let out a sign a nodded to the order he was given.

"Understood Ironhide." Cliffjumper said to the Autobot now named Ironhide.

Cliffjumper

-Autobot

-Red challenger

-A weapons expert who has the right weapon for the job, just don't question where they come from, he never says where he gets them

Ironhide

-Autobot

-Red GMC Topkick

-An Autobot much stronger than iron

"Sorry buddy, but hey you can have this." Wheeljack said as he handed Cliffjumper the detonator to the bomb. "This will blow up their Navigation and Communications hub and the emergency coordinates that were installed will activate and force the ship to crash into earth's moon." As he said this Cliffjumper had a look of interest and joy almost like a child getting a new toy, a new toy they instantly love.

"How come I don't get a gift?" Said the pink and white feminine looking Autobot with their voice sounding rather kind and caring almost like it came from a great teacher.

"Sorry Arcee, maybe next time I'll give you a bomb to blow up something that belongs to the Decepticons. Until then let's get home." Wheeljack said to the Autobot Arcee.

Arcee

-Autobot

-Pink and White 2020 FIAT 124 Spider

-The last Autobot you would ever want to get angry

"Alright Autobot, Transform and Rollout!" Said Optimus Prime as both he and the other Autobots dashed to the Space Bridge with Wheeljack setting the coordinates of where they will go, and once he got it all set up, he gave Cliffjumper the A-OK to press the trigger.

Once Cliffjumper activated the bomb an explosion could be hard from a part of the ship, an alarm going off following with the ship starting to shack like a building going through an earthquake. The Autobot then all went to the Space Bridge which had started to go off and just a matter of a second, they were all gone, back to earth. The Nemesis then started to fly towards the earth's moon at super-high speeds, and in a matter of seconds crashed headfirst into the and kept on going for a few miles on the surface of the moon with the thrusters of the ship adding more to the push making it go even faster.

The Nemesis then started to reach a crater in the path, but it started to lose speed and once it reached the crater it stopped with one half of the ship over it, but thanks to the zero gravity of the moon they would be alright. "Hey, guy maybe we can fix the ship like this-" Said the voice of Rumble within the ship but was interrupted as the damage of the ship made the front half begin to fall apart and then spit in half, with the half go into the crater. "Okay never mind but maybe-"

"SHUT UP RUMBLE!" Said the voice of many Decepticons in union.

Back on earth, the Autobots had finally returned with Lincoln, they were in an open field, a random location so the Decepticons wouldn't know the real location of their base away from the Decepticons. "Man, it feels so good to be back on solid ground and breathing fresh air again." Lincoln said happy to be out of all that.

"Ratchet, this is Arcee, we have rescued Lincoln Loud and found both Wheeljack and Sundor, both seem to be a little banged up. Can you get us a Ground Bridge and check on Wheeljack and Sundor when we arrive?" Arcee said over a comm-link to the Ark with Ratchet telling her he understood with a Ground Bridge opening near them so they could enter it.

"Man, I can wait to put this whole day behind me. Tomorrow, I'm going to just relax." Said Lincoln.

"I would say that is for the best, and Lincoln, we are happy to see that you're alright." Optimus said to Lincoln with all the Autobots heading home, after a long day of fighting and from crashing the enemy ship, the Nemesis. It was rather more a huge victory for them, but they all knew this, that it was most likely that Decepticons were all still active and alive. But all that matters is that Lincoln was safe now.

Back on the moon, the Decepticons were all still active and moving around, there back was damaged, many of them were injured from the crash. The Decepticon Cyclonus was in a room talking to an unconscious Starscream. "I am sorry that things were not as we first thought, but soon thing will get better for us both." They then paused for a second before talking again, almost like a conversation. "I know you wanted to go with the original plan but, it would have made things worse, just put away your ego for once Starscream." As they said this Starscream started to regain conscience and saw Cyclonus. "Ah, you are reactivated Starscream, good." He said as he helped Starscream back up.

"Cyclonus, you still-" Starscream said confused as he remembered blasting holes into him.

"Function, yes I do. Now I must leave, Megatron will want us to know what is to happen next." He then started to walk away from him, with Starscream walking in the opposite direction confused as to how Cyclonus was still even active after everything he did, and he knows he did it. "Now then, what should we plan next?" Cyclonus said to what may have been himself, but he was talking to someone else.

"For now, we just need to wait for the next right time, our plan to crash the Nemesis was perfect, and soon everything will change." Said what sounded like Starscream but it had a ghostly echo to it. Right beside Cyclonus was someone who looked just like Starscream, but they were translucent, completely see-through, like a ghost. "Don't forget, we have the same goal and mission. To stop the darkest of times for all."

"Yes, we shall." Cyclonus said to this 'Ghost Starscream'.
