Transformers Prime: Legacy (Season Two)

Episode 45: Armada: Part 5

"5:55 P.M."

Ford Field, home of the Detroit Lions. At least before the invasion. The stadium now stands abandoned in the wake of the mass evacuation of the entire city.

"6:00 P.M"

A black GMC Topkick drives onto the field and brings itself to a halt before transforming into the grizzled and battled hardened Autobot veteran, Ironhide. 

Ironhide pulls out a handheld scanner and glances down at the screen as it detects a beacon for a brief moment before going dark.

Ironhide: "Hmmm."

Suddenly, the sound of a motorcycle engine revving up was heard in the distance as Ironhide looks up to see a purple Honda Rebel 500 heading in his direction. 

The motorcycle transforms into the Autobot scout, Chromia, who walks up to comrade with a smile.

Ironhide: Well, well! Aren't you a sight for sore optics?

The two Autobots reunite with a warm hug. 

Ironhide: Good to know you made it out alive, kid!

Ironhide breaks the hug.

Ironhide: Have you seen or heard anything from the others?

Chromia: Not since we abandoned base I'm afraid. *Sigh* It'd sure be nice to hear from any of them at this point, even Sentinel.

Ironhide lays a reassuring hand on Chromia's shoulder. 

Ironhide: Chromia, as far as we know, you and I could be the only ones left, but don't you think for a second that we'll give up hope that easy. We'll find our team, and we won't rest until we do!

Chromia: *Smiles* Thank you, Ironhide.

"Aww! How spark-warming!"

The two Autobots look up to see Barricade and Blackout standing on top of the stadium. 

Ironhide: Ah, scrap!

The Decepticon duo leaps down and lands several feet away from the Autobots with a loud, thunderous boom.

Blackout: Missed us?

Ironhide: Hardly. 

Blackout: Is that right?

Barricade: Well, I'm at sure at least one of us feels the same way. 

A groundbridge flashes open behind the Autobots as they look back to see Blackarachnia emerge.

Chromia's optics widen in shock as she spots the Decepticon insignia resting in the center of the Arachnacon's chest.

Barricade: Autobots, meet the newly improved Blackarachnia, courtesy of the maniacal genius of Shockwave! She's faster, stronger, twice as proficient in combat, and most importantly, back with a vengeance!

Blackout: I'd definitely watch out, especially if I happened to be an Autobot named Chromia!

Barricade and Blackout laugh maniacally as the two femmes exchange glares.

Barricade: We've been waiting on a rematch!

Blackout: Especially after we had to endure the wrath of our majesty all thanks to you meddling Autobots!
