Glancing to my right, I could see that Optimus wasn't happy either. It was then, a third voice spoke up. "Both of ya calm down." Was that who I think it was? "Prowler, ya need to lighten up a bit."

"We're at war Jazz. I'll lighten up once it's over. And my name is Prowl."

"Whatever ya say, Prowler. Hey Prime, it's good to speak to you again."

I couldn't hold my laughter in. It was Jazz, I thought so.

"More bots are coming here, how cool is that?" Miko asked excitedly.

Optimus was more hesitant. "Wheeljack. I know him by reputation only." He turned to Bulkhead. "Can you verify his voice print?"

"He is one thousand per cent the real deal, Optimus." He confirmed.

"We will send landing coordinates. Safe journey Wheeljack."

"See you soon buddy. I will make sure you get a proper welcome."

"So, who's the boyfriend?" Arcee asked.

Bulkhead chuckled as he replied. "Me and Jackie go way back. We were part of the same warrior unit, the Wreckers. The cons will be wishing he never found us."

On the Nemesis.

Normal pov

As usual, Soundwave was monitoring communications and had picked up on Wheeljack's transmission. Starscream was listening with great interest. He chuckled. "I too know how to prepare a proper welcome. This is the perfect opportunity. Makeshift!"

A con stepped forward, and Soundwave immediately connected one of his tentacles to him, changing his appearance.

At the missile silo.

The next day, Ratchet was monitoring Wheeljack's approach whilst the others stood waiting.

"The ship is approaching the landing zone." Arcee announced.

"Do you think they're here to visit?" Raf asked.

"Maybe they'll stay," Miko replied. "Hmmm, they'll have to find their own humans though."

Ratchet typed in the landing coordinates and started to activate the groundbridge but it sparked and went down.

"The equipment hasn't been the same since the infestation. Blasted Scraplets!"

"So, they're going to land halfway around the world, and then you'll bridge them to the base?"

"Just in case the Decepticons have been tracking the ship," Optimus responded to Jack's question. "We can't risk them discovering the base' location."

Meanwhile Bulkhead was pacing up and down, much to Ratchet's annoyance. "Dude, I've never seen you so stoked." Miko exclaimed as she ran over to him.

"Oh, you're gonna love Weeljack. We were like brothers, and tonight, we're gonna party."

At that point, the Decepticon alarm went off. "Five bogies!" Arcee announced. "And they're closing in fast!"

"Con scum!" Bulkhead exclaimed. "Open the bridge Ratchet, we're missing all the action!"

Ratchet pulled the lever, and the groundbridge cycled up again. This time without a problem."I'll prepare sick-bay." He said.

Bulkhead just scoffed. "Who for, the cons? This is Weeljack we're talking about here." He and the others then made their way through the portal.

Sinead's pov

"Are you all right?" Raf asked me. He had noticed that I didn't look very happy.

"Hmmm? Yeah, I'm fine thanks." I replied with a smile. He frowned, but didn't push the issue.
