The autopilot answers before saying, "Up to five point four mega miles. Attention: incoming Autobot transmission from Earth. Sender: Optimus Prime of Autobot Outpost Omega One."


Skippermoth replies, "Answer it."


Then, Optimus' voice says, "(Filtered) Unknown vessel, this is Autobot Outpost Omega One. Identify yourself."


Skippermoth replies, "Autobot Outpost Omega One, this is Autobot scout ship Dauntless Proximo Fortitude.

And we are also transporting my family and friends, Spyroflame, Humbler, Zybreaker, Threadfire, Wakestorm, Sabersurge, Dualhitch, Hangercloud, Ramblechime, Smokesight, Breakdraft, and Smokefang. I request landing coordinates for our final approach to Earth. Current distance range: four point one three four mega miles from where we are."


Optimus replies, "(Filtered) Understood, Skippermoth. We will send you landing coordinates. Safe journey."


It took some time, but Skippermoth's ship landed in the Chihuahuan Desert in Central America.


Skippermoth and her armies emerge from the ship.


Thankful that he once again notified Agent Fowler in advance after the first transmission ended, Optimus approaches Skippermoth and, upon noticing her Autobot symbol, he offers his right servo as he says, "Welcome to Earth, Skippermoth."


Skippermoth replies as she and Optimus shake servos, "I'm truly honored."


After much introductions and clarifying that Skippermoth and her allies are Autobots, they all returned to Autobot Outpost Omega One.


Once there, Skippermoth and her forces stocked up on Energon, learned all there is about Earth, met Agent Fowler, established ground rules, and scanned modern vehicles – with the Autobot forces scanning both civilian and military vehicles – along with Skippermoth reuniting with her long thought to be lost sparkmate, Threadwing, the orange and purple Dreadwing lookalike who joined the Autobots alongside Tharscream and his factions of Energon Seekers at the beginning of the Great War centuries before Starscream and his Energon Seekers joined the Decepticons thanks to Megatron and Shockwave manipulating and coercing Starscream into joining them, especially by threatening Skywarp and Thundercracker's lives.


Of course, when Photonblade revealed to the Autobots at large the real reasons why Starscream joined the Decepticons in the first place, even Optimus wasn't happy with that, despite the fact that among the benefits of reaching out to Tharscream sooner was the Autobot armies on Cybertron having an equal amount of fliers and air superiority matching the types employed by the Decepticons.


And when Smokeedge revealed the real reason why Starscream's physical appearance changed, Optimus cringed visibly, feeling sorry for Starscream losing his stronger and more durable body and his ability to hover in robot mode.


But when Steelwolf revealed Starscream's true fate in Transformers Robots in Disguise 2015 – while carefully omitting important information to prevent the Autobots from making a big wrong move in the process of waiting for the events of the Partners episode of Transformers Prime to come knocking and begin Starscream's path to becoming an Autobot – Optimus looked tense as he processed this information about the future carefully so as to not system crash, or faint in human words.


In his quarters, Photonblade looks over his calendar to see that it was almost time to meet Hirefrost.


Photonblade then says, "Well, here's to yet another new Autobot arrival."



The End.
