"What are you working on?" Jack asked, pushing his glasses up a bit. The action reminded Ratchet of Rafael, and he had to look down to hide the fact that he might have missed the boy.

"A way to contact your dimension," Ratchet replied, looking up again and rapidly typing code into the system. Jack tilted his head slightly in curiosity.

"Can I help you at all? I occasionally help Soundwave and Knockout with things, I know a little Cybertronian."

Ratchet's gaze turned to the young human who looked like Rafael, but had the same name as the Jackson Darby he knew.

"Ra-Jack, I'm not sure how you could help in this case," he replied simply.

"We could try the Decepticons' comlink," Jack suggested.

"I wouldn't want to end up calling Megatron...our Megatron."

"That would be a lovely conversation," Bulkhead replied sarcastically, making Raf grin.

"Nice," he complimented, making the wrecker smile a little. Miko huffed slightly and brushed a strand of hair from her face. It was weird, usually Miko was the louder one, but she had been quiet, and hadn't talked unless talked to or she thought it was important. His Miko just talked whenever she had something to say. It was certainly a change, one he hopefully didn't have to get used to.

"That's what changing the code is for," Jack replied, pulling his laptop out from his bag and sitting down where he was at the computers, starting to type just as fast as Ratchet, making the said Autobot raise an optic ridge and turn back to his computer to type.

"See, comlink codes." Jack announced, turning his laptop over. Ratchet turned to look, adjusting his optics to the tiny text on the smaller screen. He tried to see if he could recognize any and if they were similar. Surprisingly, there were a few digits that were not anywhere close to what he had remembered.

"Alright, we'll give this a shot," Ratchet muttered, seeing no other option. He continued typing a bit of code before hesitantly entering the first comlink code; Megatron's.

The Autobots in the room waited intently as they had overheard what Ratchet and Jack were doing. As Ratchet sent out a transmission, everyone seemed to hold their breath.

***

"Statement: Incoming transmission. From: Autobot Outpost Omega One."

The kids all looked up after hearing a familiar name.

"A transmission?" Raf asked hopefully, as Miko walked over to the railing to look at the screen that was displaying the request.

"Autobot Outpost Omega One?" Knockout asked, making a small face of disgust. Miko glared at him.

"Inquiry: Accept?" Soundwave asked.

"Accept," Megatron replied, optics fixed onto the screen as Soundwave tapped a button on the keyboard, and the screen turned to static a little before a picture started to appear, of an orange and white looking 'bot. On the other side of the screen, a white and blue 'con started to appear on the Autobots' screen. None of the Cybertronians in either dimension knew what to expect.

The screen started to clear of static, and it left every Decepticon in the room to stare at every Autobot through the screen and vice versa. Optimus and Megatron locked optics with each other for a while, and no one said anything as they noticed the leaders' behavior.

"...Orion?"

"Megatronus?" the two asked at the same time, both equally surprised at the voice of the other. It was less harsh and cold.

"Actually, it's Megatron,"

"Optimus Prime," the two said again.

"Creepy," Raf muttered as he stared at Optimus, before getting jabbed in the ribs slightly by Miko.

Optimus saw Megatron and remembered him as the brother he had once fought with in battle, as Megatron remembered Optimus as the Autobot who he had considered his close friend, ally, and, even, brother. They continued to look at each other before Knockout cleared his throat.

"Sorry to interrupt, Megatron," he said, making the Autobots expect Megatron to correct the medic and tell him it was "Lord" Megatron, but he never did.

"But I believe the...Autobots...called us for a reason," he said, looking at the screen and catching Ratchet's optics. By now everyone was trying to find their enemy or counterpart. Agent Fowler and Agent Bishop caught each other's eyes through the screen, both seeming to asess each other as both Miko's faces made a slightly horrified and disgusted expression at what the other was wearing. Jack couldn't stop looking at what was supposed to be the other Jack, but kept glancing at Rafael to make sure he was still there. Raf was doing the same with Jack, while also smiling a little at Miko's wilder outfit. Knockout's gaze shifted from Ratchet over to the berth-ridden Bumblebee, who had woken up in time to see the other dimension. He didn't feel like saying anything, and Bulkhead and Breakdown's optics both narrowed as they looked at each other. Doctor and Nurse Darby, after seeing if their sons were okay, saw each other and stared for a while.

Arcee, who had heard voices that weren't the Autobots, had walked in and immediately saw Airachnid, or, what was supposed to be her. Her optic twitched again, and Airachnid only raised an optic ridge at her nemesis. Soundwave blankly stared at Ratchet with his visor, and Ratchet blankly stared back. Neither side could get over each other. They could have sat there for probably hours, just...staring, if it weren't for Miko.

"Well, someone say something! I don't want to look at the boring part of myself forever!"

That remark made Raf laugh over the screen, and Miko smiled, pleased she had at least made someone laugh as her counterpart blew a strand of hair out of her face angrily and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Better than staring at the crazy part of myself," she muttered, though no one really heard. Ratchet eventually managed to look away and he rubbed the back of his helm.

"Well, it's certainly a relief that we were able to make contact with you," he said, making everyone else snap back to reality after staring at each other.

"It's certainly a relief to know that the kids are...unharmed," Megatron said, his gaze shifting over to the three human allies of theirs. Optimus nodded in agreement as he looked at the three, Jack staring back at him.

"You have no idea how weird this is," Raf muttered on the Autobots' side.

"I believe we have some idea," Knockout replied back to him through the screen. Raf shrugged.

"Speaking of 'weird', do you have any reason for what caused this?" Megatron asked, looking at Ratchet specifically. Ratchet nodded.

"Our GroundBridge malfunctioned, and in my haste to finish it, I had repaired it incorrectly, causing it to become a black hole. Our Jack, Miko, and Raf were pulled in, and, as I have been told, yours were, as well."

Soundwave nodded once.

"Inquiry: How were both dimensions effected?"

The Autobots exchanged glances with each other. Their Soundwave had taken a vow of silence, so hearing him talk was a little shocking.

"Truthfully, I do not know. However, we need to figure out a way to get each other's humans back."

"Statement: Will work on that."

"As will I," Ratchet replied. Megatron was about to say something when an alert popped up on their screen.

"Autobot activity," Knockout muttered, causing the Autobots to exchange glances with each other yet again.

"They're relentless," Starscream sighed, and Megatron gave him a look, silently telling him to hush, as the Autobots could hear them. Well, the...nicer Autobots.

"It seems we may have to end this here," Optimus said, now looking at their own screen, which showed an alert of their own.

"Energon readings," Ratchet mumbled. Optimus nodded once, knowing that they needed that energon.

"Hopefully we can make contact again soon," the Prime said to the screen, staring at the Decepticons on the other side.

"Hopefully," Megatron agreed, and Soundwave cut the transmission before Ratchet could.

"Autobots...transform and roll out!"

"Decepticons, transform and rise up!"

Hey, look, another chapter! :D

Okay, so, to make it just a little easier, from now on when I mention "Raf", I'm referring to SG Raf, and when I mention "Rafael", I'm mentioning the normal Raf. IDK if I should have normal Jack be referred to as "Jackson" and the SG be "Jack", but that's just to make things easier. Have fun deciding which Miko I'm referring to :T

Also, IDK too much about SW, how he talks or whatever, so I kinda just went by what I've seen in the show and what I've seen in fanfictions or whatever. I think it's right anyway.

Yay, Autobot and Decepticon contact! :D

Next chapter should be just a little interesting.

So far I'm actually really enjoying writing this book, I feel pretty good about it :D Thanks for supporting! See you next chapter!
