The Guard, The Scout, and The Wrecker

Reunited then Darkmount

Nightshard pov

So the last week has been fun from fighting over the Omega Lock on Cybertron and saving the kids to the Cons finding out where the base was. When that happened, Uncle Orion had the entire team separated to ensure we didn't get captured though Wheeljack was the only one who had been captured when his ship was shot down. I know that both Bee and Smokes are alive and well, but I can't pinpoint where they are, which was a benefit of how well the three of us can block our bonds. The three of us kept our sibling bonds open enough to let each other know that we were okay and alive. With everything going on, just has me worried about the rest of the team along with not knowing if they are alive. I was hiding out in a forest near a clearing when I felt a pull so I walked over to the clearing in my beast mode to be safe in case it was the cons. It didn't take long for me to see a Cybertron ship landing and when it landed the hatch opened was when I saw several bots hadn't seen in years. "Why did we land here of all places on this planet?" a voice asked. That got my attention because I know that voice and it was one that I never thought I would hear again.

"We picked up an Autobot signal in this area and we have to find who it is before finding the rest of those signals," the other voice said. When I saw the two bots before I saw that it was Hot Rod and Uncle Ironhide walking off the ship and standing next to its hatch. I ran out before tackling Uncle 'Hide down to the ground when he saw it was me. "Nightshard that you?" Hot Rod asked with a hopeful smile on his face plates. "Yea it's me," I said back to my sparkmate after I transformed back. After Ironhide hugged me when he got up, Hot Rod ran to me before picking me up and spinning me around. "What happened with the Autobots here?" Another voice said from the ship. I turned around to see my aunts Chromia and Elita-one along with Prowl and Kup by the hatch with smiles on their faceplates. "Megatron and the Decepticons created a fortress near the old base so Uncle Orion decided to separate the entire team sending us one by one by ground bridge," I explained. "Other than you and Prime, who else is here?" Prowl asked me. "There is Ratchet, Bulkhead, Arcee, Bumblebee, Wheeljack, and Smokescreen. Along with 5 human allies that joined us but I don't know where anyone is at," I said. That alone made Aunt Elita smile knowing that Uncle Orion was still alive. I could tell that when Aunt Mia and Uncle 'Hide heard Wheeljack's name, I knew that they recognized their son's name but I could tell that they held their tongues not wanting to get their hopes up.

"We have locks on several Autobot signals along with another Autobot ship heading somewhere," Chromia said as she headed back on the ship. The rest of us followed her back on the ship to find the rest of the team. When I saw the screen showing the rest of the Autobot signals meeting up at the same location I knew that one of those signals was Uncle Dreadwing. His switching sides shocked most of the team but we knew that if any bots were going to make him switch was going to be Smokescreen, Bumblebee, and me. "Something you not telling us about the team?" Prowl asked as I watched the screen knowing that I was hiding something. "Dreadwing joined the team before the cons found the base," I said with a faint smile. Everyone looked at me knowing that they couldn't believe that Dreadwing switched teams and they wanted to know why he did so. "He switched sides how?" Kup asked with a stunned look. I explained that I learned that he was my uncle but he knew that he couldn't fight his family any longer because they were the only thing that he had left of his sister. "Didn't expect that but whose Smokescreen cause we never met an Autobot named Smokescreen?" Hot Rod asked. "Smokescreen is the new member of Team Prime an Elite Guardsmen who is my brother and he's older than Bee and me even if we're a trine," I said.

Hot Rod looked at me paled because he had to deal with my oldest trinemate and I could see Uncle Hide smiling and laughing at Hot Rod because he already had to deal with Bee. "Should I be scared?" Hot Rod asked. "You should be scared very scared," Uncle Ironhide said trying to keep a straight before getting his shoulder hit by Aunt Mia. "You shouldn't be scared at all because if anything he acts like he's younger than us," I said with a smile. Hot Rod knew that I wouldn't lie to him on purpose and it was when Prowl broke out in laughter. It didn't take long for them to see the wreck of the Harbinger along with another ship with a group of bots nearby with another ship not far from them. The group noticed that we were friendly and waited before coming closer to see who was on the ship.  When we landed and the hatch opened, I was the first one that they saw before Bee ran to hug me once I got my peds on the ground. : Are you okay?: Bee asked me once he let go.
