Optimus stared at the dark clouds and furrowed his optic ridges. He felt the rain land on his faceplate and he looked at the others. They were ready for battle and they knew a fight was coming. They heard thunder and saw lightning flash across the sky as it illuminated the approaching army in the sky.

"So it begins." Wheeljack smirked cockily making Ultra Magnus sigh in exasperation.

"Sir I don't approve of the wrecker being here." He said seriously. Optimus glanced at him from over his shoulder plate and they seemed to have a silent conversation.

The Prime stared straight ahead again and narrowed his optics. Bumblebee whirled quietly and looked up to some clouds that were swirling slowly.

"Oh great.... a tornado..." Smokescreen muttered and looked at Arcee then smirked. She didn't even look at him as she activated her blades. The others followed her example and prepared to fight. They stood their ground and watched as the army got closer.

"Autobots. Prepare to-" Optimus stopped suddenly as something fell on his helm then bounced off. He blinked in surprise and looked to the ground where he saw a round object with a string. The others had noticed and gathered around. Bumblebee aimed his cannons at the small thing that hit his leader.

"Is that a new weapon from the cons?" Smokescreen asked as Arcee nudged it with her ped.

"Looks like something Miko brought to the base. She called it... um... uh..." Bulkhead said as he furrowed his optic ridges to think. "Uh... mo-mo!" He said as he grinned.

"No that's something she ate from... some place." Wheeljack smirked as he looked at his friend.

"Are we really discussing this right before a battle?" Magnus asked as he furrowed his optic ridges. Optimus didn't respond and bent down then picked up the item. He stared at it then looked around with concern.

"If the children are here they are in grave danger and must be found." He said seriously as he scanned the area. He looked at the item then set it in his chest chassis for safe keeping. He knew the children loved their tiny items.

"Keep your optics open for the children, and once found protect them." He muttered then looked at the army that had landed and were now firing.

"Autobots! Attack!" He shouted as his mask shifted into place again and he ran into the fight. The others quickly followed as they started their fight against the cons.

"Milady!" Chat shouted as he held on to her ankle. "I hope you know where we're going!" He yelled. She didn't respond as she reached for the young teen. Ben stared at her as he fell but he didn't try reaching for her. His expression blank as he felt everything was pointless.

"Don't give up!" Ladybug cried as she grazed his shoe with her finger tips. "Grab my hand!" She shouted but he didn't respond. He didn't want to be saved anymore. But the hero wasn't going to give up on him.

"Dang it kid if-" Chat stopped suddenly as the portal opened up and they saw the ground far below. His eyes widened in surprise and he yelped. Ladybug gasped as she saw what appeared to be a battle below them.

"Transport us to the ground!" She shouted and Ben looked at her without any emotion. "Come on Ben. Be the hero you wanted to be." She said as she smiled a little. He stared at her then pulled out the orb before creating a portal, but it didn't stay long. His powers were connected to his emotions.

"Focus!" Chat shouted as the ground got closer.

Bumblebee looked up at the sky and saw three figures falling. He whirled frantically and ran towards them.

"Soldier! Get back to the battle!" Magnus yelled as he saw him run off. He growled lowly and continued fighting. He'd deal with the reckless scout later.

Bumblebee kept running as he stared at the falling humans. He couldn't see them to we'll and wondered how Raf, Jack and Miko got up there. He ran up a cliff then ran and launched himself into the air. He caught the three teens then smiled as he carefully rolled and transformed.

The three kids blinked in surprise as they suddenly found themselves in a car. Ladybug looked to the back and saw the two boys, then looked to the driver's side. They all froze as they stared at the steering wheel that moved on its own. Bumblebee moved the mirrors to look at them and slammed on his breaks.

There was a moment of silence before the three teens started screaming in surprise and shock. Bumblebee yelled in his broken voice as he realized he just revealed their secret. Optimus and Agent Fowler were going to kill him.

The kids jumped out then ran from the car. Bumblebee quickly transformed and held his hands up defensively as he tried to calm them. And himself.

Ladybug screamed in surprise as he stepped closer and their backs met the cliff side wall. Chat jumped in front of them and bent down with one hand in the air. Bumblebee was trying not to freak out as he tried to calm them. He gripped his helm and started beeping frantically.

"Don't worry milady! I'll defeat this thing!" Chat yelled as he stood straighter. "Cataclysm!" He shouted and held his hand in the air.

Bumblebee looked at him and went silent as he watched his hand. The scout whirled quietly in wonder, what was that?
