Shockwave: “Fellow Decepticons, we are in dire need of energon. This planet you are on is rich with resources that it should power my latest creation. However none of the space bridges are active this time but that won’t stop you from collecting energon for when the plan is set into action. My mega particle canon will happen soon but for now gather energon in any way you can. Destroy any and all humans who get in the way, mane and kill any Autobots you see. They have screwed up enough of our plans or to speak Megatrons. According to reports a power station is not too far, it is south-west of your current location.”

By this point Carcass was back and it had downloaded some of the map to the ship, several spots were there for the Deccepticons to hit. The power station Shockwave mentioned was there, how he knew was from when they hit it 30 years ago when Megatron was the leader. A damn was a trip away but the orders coming from Shockwave meant they had to attack the power station.

Shockwave: “Give me good news or I will scrap you myself. NOW GO!!!!”

Not too far from the Autobots several vehicles were making tracks towards the downed Emissary. The people of this planet had seen the ship drop from the sky and they were not going to let what happened several decades ago repeat. All the vehicles were military, and within the group of moving vehicles were two tanks, two army trucks carrying people, two strange trucks with fixed turrets that looks so much like technology that the Autobots and Decepticons had themselves. Five minutes behind them were several aircrafts of various kinds to take the Autobots out. The Autobots would be disturbed partly by what they would see, the military were using there brothers both the Autobots and Decepticons as parts. The thing was it was only elements and much of them were intact for rival, well some had more parts missing then others but the body and heads were still intact.

Though the Autobots were out of the city they had made the mistake of landing on earth though so did the Decepticons who were going to be dealt with soon enough. The Autobots were easy targets as they normally did not fight back, but unknowing to them who was to say these ones would not. Optimus Prime was not here to lead or prevent them and Hot Rod was not here to stop them either. Would they follow his example or would they play it differently?

Nasty screeches could be heard coming from all the vehicles as they stopped all around the vessel, a man in green stood tall with a megaphone making him say.

General: “OK you ALIEN SCUM, get out here so we can trash you and make you into some cool stuff unless you comply.”

Off the megaphone.

General: “Get the weapons ready…… I want to see how much damage these alien weapons will do to the bastards.”

Grunt: “Yes sir.”

There was no middle ground, it was going to be leave or we will destroy. Mankind was foolish and too proud for its own good. He would give them a choice when they all came out, he wanted to know the numbers and what they looked like. They could not hide this way.

Scrap us yourself my aft. You even said you can't get here right now. Nightscream thought, but kept that for herself. They should be worrying about the 'Bots who could attack them as those good for nothings would never dream of actually stealing energy from the humans. First secure the base, then go out pillaging, for primus's sake. Literally. "I don't like it. We'll be leaving the ship without defenses. I say fortify first. Cybertron waited thousands of years, what's a week more." she said, looking over at Swansong and her pets: "Any of them found Big Bang?" she asked, as she would feel quite better about the situation if their powerhouse of a comrade wasn't missing.

The other members of the group were rather surprised when Wheelclimb brought along Krieg and proposition. Oddly enough only Blast pipe had a problem with it, "How dare you sneak this up on us without asking!"

"Well consider the following," Gage said rather matter of fact, "It wouldn't hurt to have another set of hands on board. Perhaps she may even have a special skill which might prove of use." Meanwhile Highball only gave a shallow support on grounds due to such an endeavor being interesting.

"See? I told you they would agree to help!" said Wheelclimb as he introduced Krieg to the group and waited for the other autobots to assemble.

Krieg glanced at Wheelclimb, "FANTASTIC!" He raised his right fist into the air, "Now then, we probably should get around to actually doing this." Krieg grinned as he held onto the spark jar, "As for skills, yes, she has many skills." Krieg turned to the others, "Now then, we should be off!"

Jersey boy crossed his arms and nodded his head. It was the first time he was ever on a team. Back on Junkion, he associated with others, but didn't feel like he stuck out enough or really received too much individual attention. "Sounds cool homie" Jersey Boy answered. "Where can I start? Also, where do I get myself one of those?" He pointed to the Autobot insignia on Gage's metallic body.

Clowncar saw the commotion with all the vehicles, and poked his head out to see the things. He scowled and a low growl escaped his lips. Thoughts started to form, and then they traveled down to his mouth.... and he said one word, or two words really. "Party time!" He leaped out from his hiding spot and does a heroic pose, then laughs maniacally. He puts his hands up and smiles wide "Hello, hello! Now, I have no clue who I am or where I'm currently standing, but boy do I feel good to see some other sentient beings! Or well, atleast more talking people. The ones that were at the crash site were more... dead. Totally not my fault though! It was a malfunction with the drop pod! I just hit my head and I feel AMAZING! WOOOOOO!" he then trips on his own two feet and tumbles. "ACK! My pride! OOF!" He hits the ground and rolls down the slight slope, going closer to the downed ship in a not-so-flashy manner, but he made it look like an accident at least. He only hoped that it was convincing. Those blasters looked nasty. "I can't feel my hips!"

Decepticons

Nightscream: "Any of them found Big Bang?"

Swan-Song: “I believe they haven’t but if we can summarise when they fell we could project where they would of fallen. I am sure the big lug is somewhere in the ocean. Maybe we should head out and get him before the Autobots get to him. We can cover land quicker by air. Shockwave’s plan can wait. Hmmmmmmm I wonder if the big lugs com still works.”

She paused before trying to contact him.

Swan-Song: “Big Bang can you hear me, over? Big Bang answer me you big idiot.”

She could only wait for the big lug to reply.

They needed the big guy as the Autobots most likely had a big guy as well. If they could find the area he was most likely in then they could get him quickly, the energon would not get itself. Predator soon made it back, it had mapped out enough to get them started but would increase the range later on, its mapping was better than Carcasses. Swan-Song soon pointed to the ship, perhaps the on board camera would give them a clue of it was still working.

Swan-song: “Is the security cameras still working enough for us to get some play back Nightscream? My pets did not go out to far.”

Autobots

General: “I know you are in there Autobots, show yourself or WE WILL BE FORCED TO DESTROY YOU.”

The humans were impatient; they wanted these alien assholes of their planet now. The Autobots were picked on first due to the way Optimus Prime ran things. The man stood awaiting the Autobots, the Decepticons would fall after this test was completed, they were not sure how powerful or strong they were on live targets. The soldiers had their strange weapons ready, ones that would anger both sides of the transformers.

The general himself had no gun in view but a man in his position would have one hidden somewhere for protection. His weapon was made from parts of Optimus Prime’s arm. Not much of it as it was basically a pistol. Some had elements of Megatron’s, Bumble Bee’s, Starscream’s arm or leg. Of course some had been spared from having anything taken but how long would that last?

Taking into account what Swansong suggested, Nightscream used her wireless link to the ship (What a handy thing to have. Why didn't she think of that before?) to find the necessary data. Unfortunately none of the external cameras on the lower hull remined operational, much like any turrets that were sticking out. If the Dreadnought flew again, it'd have a giant weakspot until those could be replaced. Fortunately for the big lug, the flight data was intact on the main computer. Taking into account the time of Big Bang's ejecting and the flight path of the ship, she projected the estimated splashdown area on the main screen.

"We don't have his exact trajectory and he could have moved already. It is quite the area to search." she said, thinking a few seconds about how to shorten the search time. She hated this part of herself. If she was told what to do, she would excell at any task. That part of her made her a great angineer, but unlike Shockwave, she was not an inventor. A generaliyation of that personality trait unfortunately was that it took her time to find a solution to anything previously unencountered. After half a minute, her CPU finally spewed out an answer. "I'll head to the orbit and hack into the human satellites. It could be usefull for future surveillance as well and maybe they already know where Big Bang landed." she said and turned to leave.

Shortly after leaving the audio receptor range, Nightscream started sprinting towards the launch bay. The cursed addiction of the seekers to flight. If they didn't get the chance to fly for too long, seekers could go mad. And she was stuck on the spaceship for the whole trek here. The brief flight landing the ship was hardly satisfying. Transforming midjump, the femme blasted to the orbit, leaving a cloud of sand behind her. The drag the wind put on her form was making her ecstatic. She stayed in the atmosphere for a while, pulling a few sharp turns and enjoying the jetstreams, as much as her cybertronian alt-mode would allow, before revving her engines and pitching up. The thunderous sqealing of her twin engines launched her up through the thinning air, taking her into the orbit in a minute. No doubt the humans picked her up, but she couldn't care less. It wasn't like they didn't pick up the two crashing ships.

Locating the satellite was hardly difficult. With the weight efficient designs, they weren't stealthy at all. Finding one and matching it's speed, Nightscream started hacking her way through the human networks. The safety measures employed by the fleshbag were pathetic. HEr mind crushed one firewall after another and still she was only using about half of her processing power. Her interest veering off, she started looking across the public network, something the humans appeared to call "internet". Out of curiosity she searched for any mention of the cybertronians. What she found blew her mind. There were not one, but several series apparently inspired by the past events. Some contained bits of actual history from what she could tell, others appeared to be completely thought up. Deciding to have a look later, she ripped all of the footage off and downloaded it to her drives. If anything, it could prove to be amusing.

An alarm pinged and drew her attention: She found what she was looking for. From several world agencies, she found footage of Big Bang's landing and then apparent capture. What seemed off was that the big decepticon didn'T fire a single shot. Hopeflly he wasn't too damaged form the fall. Boosting power to her communication array, the seeker contacted the Dreadnaught: "Nightscream to base: I found Big Bang. He is... being held i guess... in a human port. Investigating." she reported and disengaged the satellite, adjsuting her orbit and performing a breaking burn for the planet's gravity to pull her just above the target.

As she descended back into the atmosphere, the air around her flared up, giving her descent a magnificent, menacing appearance. Too fast for the human countermeasures to be tracked, she descended below radar range, flying towards the carrier decepticon jsut above the ocean surface: "Nightscream to Big Bang: Are you injured?" she asked, her tone one of worry. Of course, that was a calculated thing. It wasn't compassion - Nightscream was merely interested in being in his favor if she ever needed some leverage. Considering how some of the other decepticons treated the carrier, merely not mentioning his below average intelligence and the occasional patching of a wound could make all the difference.

"I AM A BOAT.", Big Bang responded to the voice in his head, "HOW ARE YOU I AM FINE."
There was a long pause, and then-
"WAIT. WHAT'S AN INJURED?"
