Crash landing

All was quiet in the forest; the crickets were chirping and an occasional owl hooted. However, things weren't like that for long as an escape pod fell from the sky. The pod was extremely hot as it passed through Earth's atmosphere and landed roughly in a clearing. Once the pod landed it sent out a signal. The passenger inside tried their best to find their way out of the pod.

Eventually, the bot trapped inside finally blasted the door and crawled out of the escape pod. They were extremely dizzy from the crash and they were leaking energon. They hoped that someone would find them soon. Especially since they were on Earth because of an Autobot signal they got while still in space.

At the Autobot base everything was quiet. Bumblebee, Arcee and Bulkhead took their charges home for the night. When they got back and transformed they were exhausted.

"Optimus, I'm picking up a signal from an escape pod." Ratchet said as his computer beeped.

"What fraction?" Optimus asked, walking towards Ratchet.

"Autobot. Optimus, whoever is in the pod needs to be rescued." Ratchet said, turning to his friend.

"Very well. You will accompany Bulkhead, Arcee and I in case whoever it is needs medical attention. Bumblebee will run the groundbridge." Optimus said.

"Yes Optimus." Ratchet said as he went to grab his med kit." 

Optimus, Bulkhead and Arcee went over to the groundbridge as Ratchet grabbed his med kit. Bumblebee went over to the groundbridge controls and typed in the cordinances. Once Ratchet was ready Bee opened the groundbridge. 

"Autobots, roll out!" Optimus said as he, Bulkhead, Arcee and Ratchet transformed and drove through the groundbridge.

As usual, things were chaotic on the Nemesis. Knockout was complaining about his finish, Breakdown was trying to buff him, Starscream was screaming about something and the Vehicons were running around everywhere. Megatron groaned in annoyance as he listened to Starscream complaining about something. When Soundwave got a signal from an escape pod he walked over to Megatron and showed him.

"You never disappoint me, Soundwave. I will accompany you." Megatron said, smiling at his best friend.

Soundwave nodded his helm before opening a groundbridge. Naturally, he let Megatron go through first before following him. When they got to the clearing in the forest they saw a bot laying on the ground and leaking energon from their left stabilizer. Just then, another groundbridge opened up and some of the Autobots came through.

"Megatron!" Optimus said as he transformed.

"Ah, Optimus. I see that you're here to try and take this bot for yourself." Megatron said, smirking at Optimus.

"This is an Autobot, they're coming with us." Optimus said, transforming his servos into blasters. 

While Optimus and Megatron were in a heated battle Ratchet went over to the mysterious bot. Bulkhead and Arcee kept Soundwave busy. Ratchet opened his med kit as he knelt down next to the bot. Who he saw made his optics widen in shock.

"By the Allspark…" Ratchet said, realizing who he was looking at.

"Ratchet, is that you?" Moonracer asked, thankful to see a familiar face.

"I thought you offlined." Ratchet said, tending to Moonracer's injuries.

"No, I somehow ended up in an escape pod after helping some other femmes escape." Moonracer said, wincing in pain a little.

"I'm glad that you still like helping others." Ratchet said, a small smile on his faceplates.

As Ratchet tended to Moonracer Optimus and the others got Megatron and Soundwave to retreat. Once they were sure that it was safe they went over to Ratchet. 

"Moonracer?!" Arcee asked in shock.

"Arcee! I'm so glad that I'm not the only femme here!" Moonracer said happily.

As Ratchet finished tending to Moonracer's injuries Optimus called Bumblebee for a groundbridge. Ratchet finished putting everything back into his med kit as Optimus carefully picked Moonracer up. When the groundbridge opened Optimus, Bulkhead, Arcee and Ratchet walked through. 

"Optimus, put Moonracer on the med berth. She needs rest." Ratchet told Optimus. 

Optimus nodded his helm as he walked to the med bay. Cliffjumper, who had just returned from a late night patrol, saw who Optimus was carrying into the med bay. 

"Is that Moonracer?" Cliffjumper asked Arcee.

"Yep, it sure is." Arcee said, hugging her sparkmate. 

"It sure is going to be fun having her around. I've always considered her as a younger sister." Cliffjumper said happily. 

Moonracer pouted as Optimus placed her on the med berth. She disliked being in the med bay. She especially hated the idea of having to drink low grade energon. 

"Moonracer, are you feeling alright?" Optimus asked her.

"I'm fine, Sir. Just a little tired." Moonracer said, looking up at Optimus.

"Rest well, Moonracer. And welcome to Team Prime." Optimus said before going to his berthroom. 

"You too, Sir." Moonracer said as Optimus left.

Shortly after Optimus left the med bay, Moonracer laid down on the med berth and went into recharge. She was happy to be a member of Team Prime. When Ratchet walked into the med bay and saw her recharging he decided to let her rest.
