Skipkick is the newest memeber of the Bee team. She loves it there, her best friend is Sideswipe, she gets to take down cons, and build her own inventions out the materials in scrapyard. But there's a catch to all of her happiness...Skipkick has no...
Russel stared at me as I came back. Grimlock and Strongarm were already there. "So," I said, trying to hide my sadness. "What're we watchin'?" "The Walking Dead 2." Russel replied. "Where's Sideswipe and Windblade?" "They said no." I lied. "M'kay." Russel shrugged. As I watched the movie, I longed for Sideswipe's presence. Sharing memories with me as the movie played. "Wow, that was really good!" I claimed after The Walking Dead 2 ended. Russel laughed. "You say that about all the movies we watch!" he said. "It's true!" I grinned. "Yeah." Strongarm agreed. "You choose good movies Russel." "Thanks." Russel replied.
The next day, we were all huddled around the command center. Thunderhoof had been stealing stuff out of the scrapyard. "Strongarm, Sideswipe, Grim, you guys go to the north side of the structure." Bee ordered. "Windblade, Drift, you two take the east. Skip, and I will take the west." "He's getting better and better at being a leader." I thought. Bee and I set out in vehicle mode. We transformed back into our bot modes. Bee whispered, "Okay. There it is." He pointed to a tall, rocket-shaped, contraption. "I'll com everyone when we're ready." He waited for a few seconds. "Now!" Bee yelled. Everyone leaped out of the trees and bushes of the woods. Thunderhoof didn't move though. He just stood there, staring at us blankly. I walked closer. "What're you doing skeptibot?!" Windblade snapped. I ignored her and raised my double scythe. I slashed at Thunderhoof. "Hologram." I said as the blades went right through him. "With one of Fracture's mini drones projecting it." Then it hit me. "Are the com systems down?!" I asked Bee frantically. "Yes..." Bee answered nervously. "All of us are out here. Which means no one was there to guard the base." I explained. "They're inside, all of them, waiting for us to return." "It's an ambush." Bee said. "Thanks Skip, you're a genius." "No probs." I answered. "But we gotta get back to base." We ran to the main entrance. There was Thunderhoof, Fracture, Underbite, everyone I saw in the mill but this Steeljaw. The entrance was suspiciously wide open. Windblade tried to run in as soon as she saw it. "Wait!" I cried. But it was too late. Windblade was on her knees, covering her audio receptors with her hands. I inched forward and grabbed her arm. I pulled her out of the main entrance line. Then, I took out a gadget I created when I was at the base and everyone else was on a mission. I pointed the gun-shaped gadget at the main entrance. A blue beam of light projected out of it. It scanned the main entrance. The screen attached to it lit up and read: SF D50 U50. "What is that?" Windblade questioned, back on her feet. "Something I made while the others were on a mission." I answered. "What was that?" She asked, pointing at the entrance. "It's a sonic field." I announced to evryone. "Let's go under it." Windblade suggested. "Wecan't. The field goes at least 50 feet deep." I replied. "I'll fly over it, then." She said. "Hold on." I warned. I pointed my unnamed gadget at her. "Sorry Windblade, but you can't transform for the next few hours." Windblade looked shocked. "Are you sure?" she demanded. "Try it. Right now." I challenged. She looked like she was trying to transform, but nothing happened. I gave her a look that said: I'm smarter than you think, Jetgirl. The cons on the other side of the field smirked at us mockingly. Thunderhoof mumbled something to Fracture. "Maybe." he replied. "If the boss agrees." Fracture went over to the command center. "How are we supposed to get in?" Windblade asked everyone. I shrugged. "Maybe if we can somehow get to the entrance's power box, we can turn off the field." I suggested. "Oi!" Thunderhoof called. "Give us the weapons!" "No way!" Windblade called back. "Fine." said Fracture as he calmly came back. Suddenly, he grabbed Russel and held one his claws to Russel's throat. "Alright, fine!" Bee shouted. I hid my gadget behind my back and tossed my Decepticon hunter through the entrance. Fracture let go of Russel as Thunderhoof fetched our weapons. Fracture laughed and walked away with everyone else following him. "You okay Russel?" I asked. "Yeah, I'm fine." he answered. "But you guys won't if you don't get in here soon!" "We know, we know." I admitted, stressing a little. "But first we need to disable the sonic field." "Go get Denny." Bee instructed."He'll know what to do." "I'll try." Russel said hesitantly and ran off. "Now what?" Sideswipe asked. "Now, we wait." I replied. It seemed like it took forever for Russel to come back with Denny. Denny had just opened the panel when Fracture's minicons grabbed them and walked off. "Scrap!" I cried. "That was our only way in!" "Not our only way..." Bee uttered slyly. I raised an eyebrow. "I think I'm thinkin' what you're thinkin'." Sideswipe agreed. "I know exactly where to find one." We went up on top of hill and Sideswipe pulled a catapult out from some trees. "What're you doing?" I asked suspiciously. Slipstream jumped into the catapult. "You sure this is a good idea?" I asked Sideswipe, wondering if this could hurt Slipstream. "All of Slick's ideas are good." Windblade snapped. "Like you would know." I snapped back. She glared at me. I glared harder. "Guys!" Bee called. "Focus!" I turned away from Little Miss Sassy Jet to Strongarm. "I see why you don't like her." I whispered to Strongarm. "I think she and Sideswipe might like each other." she whispered back. "I wouldn't be surprised..." I agreed sadly as looked at the besties.

"Ready?" I asked Slipstream. He nodded, looking as if he was ready to take on the world. "Good." I flipped the lever and the cute, innocent, little minicon went flying. My optics zoomed in. Direct hit! Slipstream smacked into Thunderhoof and landed on Fracture's creepy minicons (>:( in my opinion they're cute too!) Russel and Denny ran to the power box. Denny wrenched it open. He quickly pressed a button and pulled some wires. The sonic field was disabled! "C'mon!" I yelled as I transformed into vehicle mode. Sideswipe transformed too, but he didn't drive alongside me, he drove slowly as Windblade ran beside him. "Got another rookie, hm?" Fracture teased as Drift transformed back into bot mode. "Do you not trust that one?" he mocked, looking at me. Drift charged at him, his minicons fighting Fracture's. Windblade was back-to-back with Sideswipe, fighting Thunderhoof and Clampdown. Grimlock was, of course, fighting Underbite. All the while Bee and Strongarm were keeping cons in their stasis pods. I just stood there awkwardly, not exactly knowing who to help. I saw Windblade had stopped helping Sideswipe and went off to fight Clampdown solo. I ran towards Thunderhoof, who currently had Sideswipe pinned to the ground. I shoved him off my bestie. Sideswipe smirked at me shyly. I held out a hand. He took it and I helped him up. Then, he and I, Skipkick and Sideswipe, best friends, fought Thunderhoof. Together. "Skipkick?" Sideswipe asked as we were fighting. "Yeah?" I responded as I punched Thunderhoof in the face. "I'm sorry..." he said sadly. "For what?" I questioned him. "Can we talk later?" Sideswipe asked. "Sure." I shrugged. Finally, Thunderhoof was on the ground, unconscious. We fist bumped, then dragged him over to a stasis pod in silence. Then we took down Underbite, Clampdown, and helped Bee and Strongarm re-seal the pods. Fracture got away, again, but he was injured pretty bad, which made me and Drift feel better. Sideswipe fist bumped me again, then Windblade. Windblade put a hand on Sideswipe's shoulder and started complimenting him on everything. Sideswipe walked with Windblade away. Away from me. He looked back and mouthed, "We'll talk later." I nodded and frowned. Then he looked ahead. Windblade looked back and gave a glare with an evil smile. Then she kept walking and talking with Sideswipe. I felt a stab of hatred in my in my spark (heart). "I will destroy you..." I thought. "...when the time is right..." I caught myself and realized something terrible. I thinking just like a con!
