The Energon Pub

Yeah. This is my third fanfic at a time, but I can handle it.

What, did you think just 'cause I'm 13 I can only write one or two stories at a time? Naw. I usually can read more than three at a time.

Chapter 1

Location: Autobase Nebulos
Time: 0500
Year: 2009

Hot Zone arm wrestled with Skydive, grim determination written all over his face. With a forceful push, Hot Zone sent Skydive's arm into the table. Standing, Skydive held his arm.

"Oww," he muttered.

"Not my first victim," said Hot Zone with a laugh.

"I'm sure," Skydive muttered.

"Team, we got trouble," called Hardhead.

"What's the deal?" asked Hot Zone.

"Large rainstorm coming this way. It'll keep our sensors shut down for several days. These Nebulan storms last a long time. We'll have to keep manual watch."

"In the rain?" asked Hot Zone.

"'Fraid so," said Roadbuster, who'd just entered the room.

As the team sat down and shut down the equipment to prepare for the storm, Skydive shook his head.

"I wish the rest of my team was here," he muttered.

"We all do," Roadbuster replied. "Silverbolt had a calming effect on the team."

"And man, do I wish Springer were here," Hardhead said.

"He was a great leader," said Hot Zone.

"Too bad he got transferred to another planet," called Roadbuster.

Suddenly, the wind picked up. Large splotches of water hit the window.

"Brace yourselves, 'bots!" Hardhead said. "These storms are tough!"

"Aw, shoot!" Ironhide said.

"What?" asked Bumblebee.

"Sensors are shot! We're goin' blind! There's a wormhole ahead!"

"Evasive maneuvers!" Prowl ordered.

"We're - uh - trying!" cried Ratchet.

"Commander Prowl," said Silverstreak, "the wormhole will teleport to the other side of the galaxy!"

"Then hold on, 'cause we're goin' for a little ride."

Prowl grabbed the controls of the ship and kept it headed straight for the wormhole. The ship went through, and each of the Autobots shut down in turn.

"Hope...we...don't break...up," Prowl muttered before passing out.

"Decepticons, we have Autobots on the monitor," said Soundwave.

"Where?" asked Starscream.

"They're...coming out of a wormhole."

"Eject Laserbeak and Buzzsaw. Ratbat, man the laser cannons. Dirge, prepare for space battle."

"Alone, sir?" Dirge asked.

"No. Laserbeak, Buzzsaw, Skyfall, and I will accompany you."

Dirge nodded and ran to the hangar, followed by Starscream and the others. After years of dormant waiting, Starscream's team was finally about to fight.
