Ratchet's POV:

"Hey Doc!" A familiar voice suddenly says through the com link. What in the name of Primus... Wheeljack!

"I told you not to call me Doc!" Though the strongest emotion I feel right now is confusion, those words slip out as I reply.

In the first month Malachite was with sparkling, before Optimus, Arcee and I were captured, Wheeljack had come to visit, but had left a short time later.

"Wheeljack where are you?" I ask, and Optimus sits up and sends me a confused and concerned look.

"Just now getting into the base." He replies, and a wave of horror splashes hard on me.

"Wheeljack no, get out of there! The Decepticons are--" The com link is cut off before I can finish, and Wheeljack surely has driven into the base... No!

Emma raises her large head in concern, and Optimus just looks at me; Neither have no idea what just happened.

With a sigh, I explain, "Wheeljack is back, but... Was heading into the base when the com link went dead."

"You mean the Cons have Wheeljack?!" Everence cries, a mixture of rage and pain.

"Call the rest of the Autobots back to base." Optimus tells me.

I nod and raise my digit to my com link.

Wheeljack's POV:

The huge Cybertronian cat throws me into the wall, hard, and it crumbles beneath me as I hit the floor, rocks landing all over me.

"Ugh......" I cough, debris from the wall shifting as I attempt to sit up, but slide back down.

The cat snarls, and Bucket Head strides up beside it.

"Wheeljack, what a surprise." He growls, and I force a smile.

"Yeah, it was pretty surprising to see you here. So how are you, Megsy?" My voice sputters, making the words seem a little less snappy.

Anger fills his optics and he growls again. "Take him into custody. We will see if he is any use to us."

Awww Scrap.
