Transformers Prime: Maximal Revolution

Chapter 3

"Yo boss bot, can I come with?" Miko asked excitedly.

The Autobot's were about to head to the location where they believed the Predacons currently were. Optimus regarded the young girl, "I don't. . ."

"Actually," Jack jumped in, "It might help to bring some of us." Arcee gave him a long look. "Like Raf said there could be hikers there, you might need someone to run interference."

"And we can scoop for info," Miko added excitedly. "See if anyone else has seen anything."

Optimus looked at them thoughtfully for a moment, "Very well."

Miko jumped in joy, "YES!"

"But you are to remain with Arcee at all times."

Miko's groan was followed by Jack's, "Yes sir."

"Ratchet," Optimus turned to the medic, "Open a GroundBridge." He turned to the group again, "We will split up. Ultra Magnus and I will search from the air while Ratchet will monitor everyone. Try not to engaged, we need to learn more about these Predacons. Is that understood?"

"Understood," everyone answered.

:Smokescreen reporting in. . . with nothing to report: The young bot almost moaned. It had been several hours with no sign of the Predacons.

Ratchet ignored his tone, :Are you certain?:

:I'm certain:

:Fine, but remain on guard, we don't know what these Predacons are capable of:

:Yeah, yeah: Smokescreen said, :I get it:

:Remember Smokescreen, be alert:

:Don't worry, nothing will get the drop on me: The young mech failed to notice one of the 'vines' behind him start to swing back and forth. He also failed to notice the large cat-like being in the tree watching him.

:Ultra Magnus reporting:

:Did you find something?: Ratchet asked.

:Nothing to report yet: Ultra replied. :This area is vast it could take some time before we sight any. . .: Suddenly to forms flew in front of his ship. Magnus watched bemused as two large creatures seemingly ignored his ship as they flew. One was bird-like in bright colors of red, yellow and pink, It's wingspan had a rainbow pattern on its metal feathers. It's companion resembled a blue and gray equine with a pair of powerful wings. :I. . . change that earlier statement:

Bulkhead tried to be as quiet as he could as he wondered through the foliage, which wasn't easy giving his bulk. And there were too many trees for his altmode, how was he suppose to surprise any Predcons or Decepticons.

He starting walking towards a small hill to get a better look at his surroundings, but as he reached it a noise caught his attention. Something was moving through the foliage, it sounded like it was moving fast and heading right towards him.

He activated his wrecking ball and took a battle pose, "All right Con bring it!"

Something small burst out of the bushes and THUMBD! Bulkhead looked down as something collided with his leg. A small creature shook it's head before it glared at him.

:Wheeljack reporting, and there's nothing to report: he grumbled.

:Just stay vigil: Ratchet snapped.

Wheeljack snorted as he continued walking. He had been hoping for some action, maybe some Decepticons to fight. But there wasn't anything here expect some deer that ran at the sight of him.
