Fire Wing Rising

Seeing Red

The next day Arcee and Strongarm went to explore a cave where they thought there were cybertronian artifacts but neither of them could have imagined what they found or the problems it would cause for them and the rest of the team.

Back at base Agent Fowler was about to go on some errands for June because she'd been extra moody lately and was currently at the hospital doing her job as a Nurse. Agent Fowler was going to take care of the shopping and stuff knowing she hadn't been feeling well lately. Jack was helping out anyway he could too.

Agent Fowler had asked for one of the bots to give him a ride and Sideswipe got roped into it much to his dismay. Agent Fowler started to get in the red sports car. And saw Shayna who was watching him and looked amused.

"Uh Agent Fowler I thought you were going to ride in Sideswipe?" Shayna asked him.

"Yes this is." Agent Fowler started to answer but was cut off.

"I'm not Sideswipe." Knock Out told him fighting back laughter.

"Knock Out?" Said Agent Fowler.

"Sideswipe is over there." Shayna said pointing at the red mech who changed to his vehicle mode so the Agent could get in.

"Sorry about that I've been working too hard." Agent Fowler told them as he got in Sideswipe and they drove off.

As soon as they were gone Shayna and Knock Out busted out laughing.

"I can't believe he thought I was Sideswipe." Said Knock Out sounding slightly offended but laughing in amusement as well. "Do we really look that much alike?"

"You guys do look similar." Shayna told him as they both continued to laugh.

Later inside the base everyone was trying to figure out why Rampage had attack them the day before, who he was, and what he wanted with Fire Wing?

Bumblebee was doing better by now after being stabbed the day before Ratchet still wanted him to take it easy though and stay in the medbay which he had not objected to.

Fire Wing was silent she was secretly afraid of what Rampage wanted with her. She knew whatever it was it couldn't be good. And she was also worried about Starscream she had seen how he'd grasped his spark chamber and could tell he had been in pain and Rampage had used it to his advantage and would have ended him had she not intervened.

She knew something was wrong with the seeker but anytime she tried to ask him he insisted he was fine. And would try to change the subject.

Then her thoughts were interrupted by the ground bridge opening and Arcee and Strongarm came through it both looking angry and glowing red.

"Wow why are you guys red and glowing?" Asked Sky Warp as he and Thundercracker approached the two femmes.

"Watch out don't let them touch you they both have hate plague!" Ratchet yelled to them as a medic he knew right away what was wrong with Arcee and Strongarm. "It's spread by touching the only way to cure it is for Optimus to use the Matrix but Optimus is out on patrol right now we have to get them in Quorntin till he gets back."

But Ratchet's warning came to late Sky Warp was so close that Strongarm grabbed him and he turned red and glowing too and Arcee did the same to Thundercracker. And they were all fighting and attacking each other.

"They'll attack everyone in sight and if they as much as touch you you'll be infected too." Said Ratchet. "And humans are not immune but all our human friends are outside right now and I just put the base on lockdown so their safe."
