Meanwhile, on the Nemesis, Megatron growled with a huge deep exhale, and then felt like himself again, but better in a different way.

Starscream nervously chuckled, “L-Lord Megatron?”

“It's as if the blood of Unicron the Destroyer… flows through my veins!” Megatron said. “As if I hear his very thoughts. I now know what I must do. With this power infused within me, I shall crush Optimus Prime!”

“Lord Megatron, we’ve discovered a different energy signature based on the one before your arrival, but in a different location. Somewhere hidden beneath,” Soundwave said. “Laserbeak has already reported it. I’ve also sent Demolisher and Cyclonus to investigate.”

“I see… Lugnut! Blitzwing! Come!” Megatron said, as two of his loyal servants came. “You’ve called, oh magnificent one?” Lugnut asked. “I have, Lugnut. We’re going to the location Demolisher and Cyclonus are at to investigate the energy readings provided by Soundwave,” Megatron replied, and then he walked out with the other two by his side.

“And what can I do to assist you in any way, Master?” Starscream asked. “Quit groveling! And wait my command,” Megatron replied, and then he, along with Lugnut and Blitzwing walked out of the room, leaving Starscream and Soundwave by themselves.

Out on the flight deck, Megatron, Lugnut and Blitzwing transformed into vehicle mode, while Lugnut was a bomber plane and Blitzwing was a fighter jet, but he also had a two-turreted fighter tank mode. They took off to Demolisher and Cyclonus’ location.

Starscream watched from the bridge, until Soundwave appeared, startling him. “Soundwave! I fear that when our Master reached for the stars, he came down with an unexpected touch of space madness. Lord Megatron has not sound on his judgment since his return.”

Soundwave nodded, and then Starscream turned around to face him. “You did say something about another energy source based on the fleshlings, have you not?”

Soundwave nodded, then Starscream spoke up, “Increase global surveillance.”

Soundwave then played a message Laserbeak recorded, “Quit groveling! And await my command.”

“I’M NOT DEAF!” Starscream said. “But… if Optimus Prime lives, I believe it is in Lord Megatron's best interest that we are to ensure his enemies’ destruction.”


“If the residue Arcee found on Cliffjumper brought your broken equipment to life,” Optimus said, disposing of the infected machinery that attacked Ratchet and Spike. “it would stand to reason that the very same substance brought Cliffjumper back from the dead.”

“That would account for his life signal inexplicably coming back online, but… Dark Energon?” Ratchet said. “It's so scarce seems to be virtually non-existent. What would it be doing on Earth?”

“It was transported. By Megatron.” Optimus answered.

“For what purpose?” Ratchet asked. “I do not know, but I fear worse other than that. Meaning if any other things that would relate to our human friends’ powerful energy, it would cause complete annihilation, in any way,” Optimus said.

“Well, Megatron will need to break through quite a few types of satellites to do that, but where on this world would he find that type of ethereal power?” Ratchet asked.

Suddenly, they heard the Autobots with their human friends return. As the Rainbooms got out, their guardians transformed into robot mode.

“That was awesome!” Rainbow Dash said.

“Can we go again?! Can we?!” Pinkie Pie asked excitedly.

“Welcome back, Autobots,” Optimus said.

“I assume all of you had a pleasant experience with your human companions?” Ratchet asked, as the Autobots confirmed in reply.

Suddenly, Teletraan 1 picked up an energy spike on the radar. Ratchet and Scattershot went over there to investigate.

“Another energy reading, but it’s… based on the girls’ magical energy source from before. By Primus, what next?!” Ratchet asked.

“I fear Megatron may be after it as well,” Optimus said. “Autobots, prepare to…”

The Autobots were waiting for him to say it. “Roll out?” Arcee asked.

“Remain here. Ratchet, Scattershot, you’ll come with me,” Optimus said, as he looked back at the two Autobots who were preparing for departure. “Arcee, we’ll be outside communications range for sometime, so I’m putting you in charge.”

“Hey! He’s biggest! He should be the boss!” Pinkie Pie said, pointing at Bulkhead.

“Uhh… he never picks me,” Bulkhead said.

Arcee then spoke up to Optimus, “Optimus, with all due respect, playing bodyguard is one thing; babysitting’s another. Besides, Ratchet hasn’t been in the field since the war.”

“My pistons may be rusty, but my hearing is sharp as ever,” Ratchet commented, while typing in the coordinates.

“Plus, he’s the best medic we’ve had since before we met him,” Scattershot said.

“For the moment, it’s only reconnaissance,” Optimus said.

“Then why do I hear an edge in your voice?” Arcee asked.

“Arcee, much has changed in the last 24 megacycles. And we all need to adapt,” Optimus said, and then turned to Ratchet. “Ratchet, bridge us out.”

After Ratchet activated the ground bridge, he, Optimus and Scattershot walked through it and disappeared to their destination.

“I’ll set up a defense recon, just in case,” Wheeljack said, as he typed on the computer. “Teletraan 1, run a complete security systems check!”

The base launched a satellite probe and the began spinning around the base once its panels were released, “Scanning…”

“Huh… looks like we’re all clear,” Ironhide said.

“So… what do you think we should do now?” Smokescreen asked, until they heard the sound of the Rainbooms’ musical instruments.

“How about… band practice?!” Pinkie Pie suggested, sitting with her drum set. “I like the sound of that!” Rainbow Dash said, holding her guitar.

“You’re a rock band?” Bulkhead asked.

“This is how we also defeated the Dazzlings with Princess Twilight’s help, and helped save our students from they’re hypnotic spell,” Sunset said.

“I’m still new to this, but I’d like to try,” Sci-Twi said.

“Would you darlings like to watch us perform?” Rarity asked.

“If you don’t mind, that is,” Fluttershy commented.

“Fire away!” Wheeljack said.

“Here are the lyrics, Twilight. Just follow our lead,” Sunset said, as Sci-Twi nodded.

“One! Two! Three! Four!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed, tapping her drumsticks together, and then they began playing their song, before their pony parts appeared magically.

The Rainbooms

We've just got the day to get ready
And there's only so much time to lose
Because tonight, yeah, we're here to party
So let's think of something fun to do

We don't know (we don't know) what's gonna happen
We just know (we just know) it's gonna feel right
All our friends are here
And it's time to ignite the lights!

Shake your tail 'cause we're here to have a party tonight
Shake your tail, shake your tail
Shake your tail 'cause we're here to have a party tonight
Shake your tail, shake your tail

Bumblebee and Smokescreen suddenly felt like dancing, so they did. Bulkhead, and the others suddenly just listened to the rhythm.

Twilight Sparkle “Sci-Twi”

So what you didn't get it right the first time

Pinkie Pie

Laugh it off, no one said it is a crime

Rarity

Do your thing, you know you're an original

Applejack

Your ideas are so funny that they're criminal

The Rainbooms

Ohhh-ahh!

We've just got the day to get ready
And there's only so much time to lose
Because tonight, yeah, we're here to party
So let's think of something fun to do

We don't know (we don't know) what's gonna happen
We just know (we just know) it's gonna feel right
All our friends are here
And it's time to ignite the lights!

Shake your tail 'cause we're here to have a party tonight
Shake your tail, shake your tail
Shake your tail 'cause we're here to have a party tonight
Shake your tail, shake your tail
Shake your tail 'cause we're here to have a party tonight
Shake your tail, shake your tail
Shake your tail 'cause we're here to have a party tonight
Shake your tail, shake your tail

Shake your tail 'cause we're here to have a party tonight!

Bumblebee made exciting bleeps, and the other Autobots applauded for their performance, until their pony parts disappeared.

“So… you like it, huh?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“That was pretty good. Do you usually perform?” Windblade asked.

“Yeah! We’re a big hit!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

“So, now that band practice is over, what do you guys want to do now?” Sunset asked.

“I’m gonna go work on some repairs,” Wheeljack said, walking over to the maintenance section.

“Make sure you’re careful,” Bulkhead said. “Will do, Bulk!” Wheeljack said.

“I’m going to the training simulation room,” Arcee said.

Bumblebee bleeped in reply, that he was coming.

“Count me in!” Smokescreen said.

“I could go with it,” Jazz said.

“I’ll be honored to join,” Windblade said.

Ironhide said.

“We’ll go on patrol and secure the perimeter,” Jetfire said. “Aerialbots, with me.” Air Raid, Skydive, and Silverbolt saluted him and then followed their leader. “We’ll report what happens.” They then ran and transformed into their jet modes, and then took off.

“I’m going for a break,” Prowl said.

“Well, guess our bots are busy, so… what do you say we watch some TV?” Rainbow Dash asked, as the girls made agreeable comments, and as she turned on the TV, one of their favorite cartoons was being played.

Suddenly, the Mini-con Recon Team appeared, and joined the girls by watching TV with them, and Spike slept on Rarity’s lap as she placed her hands on top of his small form to pet him.

“Whatcha girls watching?” Bulkhead asked.

“Just some cartoons we like,” Pinkie Pie replied.

“Interesting…” Bulkhead said,

While watching TV, the girls and Mini-cons laughed together at the funny parts the cartoon was showing. Bulkhead also laughed out loud, making the girls laugh even more.

What all of a sudden, a green alarm started blaring. “Proximity sensors? At this time?” Wheeljack asked.

“I’ll handle it,” Bulkhead said.

Suddenly, the elevator came down, revealing Agent Fowler.

“PRIME?!” he asked, calling for Optimus.

“Uh, Agent Fowler! He’s not here? It’s just us. Hehe…” Bulkhead said. “The others are busy, just so you know,” Wheeljack said.

“Wh-where did he go? Wait, don't tell me, He's out pankacking a mini-mall!” Agent Fowler said. “Now, I don't know what language you 'Bots speak on your planet, but Prime promised he would handle the Decepticons, and blowing a crater in the middle of the mountainside of the Everfree Forest is not what the word 'handle' means to me! So, you tell Prime-!”

The Rainbooms nervously chuckled, until Agent Fowler sighed, “Shouldn’t you all be at home?”

“It’s a free country, dude. We’re teens with attitude,” Rainbow Dash said.

“Well, me and my superiors at the Pentagon, including NEST, are practically concerned for your well-being. We’re just trying to help look out for you,” Agent Fowler said.

“Don’t worry, Agent Fowler. We’re fine,” Sunset said.

“But thank you for your concern, darling,” Rarity said, applying some blush on her cheeks.

“We’ve got it covered,” Bulkhead said.

“Alright then, but this isn’t over. Not by a long shot. So be on your watch,” Agent Fowler said, walking back to the elevator.

“Wow, he’s got trust problems,” Pinkie Pie said.

“Fowler’s usually like that,” Bulkhead said.
