A Star is Reborn: Transformers Prime *Discontinued*

The Gladiator, The Seeker, and the Silent One

(In case you guys were wondering, here's a list for how time works on Cybertron. Nano-Klik is a second, Cycle is a minute, Mega-Cycle is one hour, Solar-Cycle is a day, Deca-Cycle is a week, Orbital-cycle is a month, and Steller-Cycle is a year)

Jetfire couldn't help but worry about Starscream during the trip to Kaon. It reminded him of how she had a panic attack back at the academy. He wanted to go and check on her, but Skywarp practically had to drag him and Thundercracker to the gladiator show. He was constantly voicing his worry during their flight, much to Skywarp's annoyance.

Skywarp: Jetfire, can you stop worrying about screamer? It's getting annoying!

Jetfire: I can't help it! You saw how she freaked out she was! I should've stayed behind!

Thundercracker: And Skywarp, you were just as worried as us earlier. Why are you all better all of a sudden?

Skywarp: You kidding me? I don't want to deal with whatever that was. We had enough of that when we exposed Contrail. We deserve a break.

Jetfire: Still. Why didn't I just stay behind?

Thundercracker: Okay, I know this isn't the best of times, but I've been wanting to get this off my chest plate for a while. Jetfire, have you ever thought that maybe you should try to be a little more assertive?

Jetfire: What do you mean?

The trio had arrived in Kaon as the cheers came from the gladiator arena. No doubt the opening battle had begun. They transformed into robot mode as they approached the entrance.

Thundercracker: Well, you have a big spark. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but it's just that sometimes, that spark of yours can make you look like a pushover.

Jetfire paused, unsure of what to say. He didn't deny that he wasn't the confrontational type, but he didn't think he was a pushover.

Skywarp: Yeah. I'm not going to lie, but you can be a bit of a pushover. Like, it would be nice to actually see some aggression from you. Can you imagine that? A big, intimidating bot like you, losing his cool and go absolutely-

Skywarp didn't get to finish his sentence as Jetfire quickly shushed him.

Jetfire: Sky, stop! I already told you all this! I don't like confrontation! Violence never solves anything!

Thundercracker: *Sarcastically* Yes, because Cybertron managed to resolve all their problems through peace and harmony. Take the Quintesson invasion or the riots that broke out when the space bridges to the colony planets were destroyed.

Skywarp: *Snickers* Wow, I didn't know you had a sense of humor.

As they trio made their way to the entrance, they failed to notice a certain purple and teal seeker following them, having followed them since they left Vos. When the trio got to the front, the bot there had his servo out, wanting to see their tickets. Skywarp passed them to the bot as he inspects them using his scanner. After a few minutes, he looks back at the trio.

Entrance Bot: Alright, have fun.

He motions for them to go in. Skywarp pumps his servos in the air, excited. He, Thundercracker, and Jetfire were about to enter, only to be stopped by the entrance bot as he grabbed Skywarp by the wings, making him yelp in surprise.

Entrance Bot: Hold up. My scanner says that you have an extra ticket. And I don't see another bot with you.

Jetfire and Thundercracker looked surprise as they looked at a nervous Skywarp.

Skywarp: Oh... right... *Nervous laughs*

Thundercracker: *Annoyed* Skywarp... when you were buying the tickets, did it ever occur to you that Starscream might be too busy to go?! When the three of us share the same work schedule?!
