Description "This is so stupid! Why are we even here?"

"I gotta agree with Miko this time. The pressure on the outside of this craft's hull is immense: if we stay beyond our allotted twelve minutes, we'll be crushed and probably drown at the same time. Not how I wanted to spend my Labor Day weekend, Jack."

"Look Raf, if I knew how to explain this, I would. All I know is Optimus said something about activating a beacon in here, and that Bumblebee was going to need to be here. He didn't say why, you know he never does."

"Riiight. Because it's soΒ much easier than just Bridging to Bee's coordinates ourselves!" the younger agent hissed, flinching at an unfamiliar sound coming from one of the derelict escape pods.

Jack and Miko exchanged glances as they drew their weapons, listening for the sound again. "Since when is Junior so sarcastic?" Miko whispered.

None of the three spoke above a murmur as they made their way through the antique Decepticon ship. Somehow, it felt like desecrating a tomb.

A pair of blue eyes flickered to life in the alcove they had just passed, reflected by hundreds more in every abandoned pod.

They were not alone.

Okay, I just really want the Tformers: Prime kids to show up again. Jack and Raf were the first boy sidekick characters that I didn't find really annoying. Miko grew on me after a while, but at first I thought she'd never replace Sari on my list of "not-annoying kid sidekicks". But she did...she's actually more my favorite than Sari was now. So it's hard for me to just let those three go.

Jack's legs ended up totally the wrong length, unless I wanted to make the floor slope up the other direction, so I just cropped out the legs entirely. Oh well.

This would have been such a great idea that could have been used in RID. Too bad it's too late for any human cameos to be implemented...

Oh, but I really like the drabble to this piece. It's a interesting direction to what these three would have done after the events of Prime.

Thanks! TFP had so many loose ends that Beechen refused to tie up in Rid, so I figured I'd take a shot at 'em

I hope so too. I want more Raf! Love that little squirt to death! *hugs* And I hope that means ol' Ratchet is gonna get involved. I think he'd be overjoyed to see his old friend again. Man, would that be a butcher knife to the heartstrings.

Guh. I'm not sure if I could handle that moment. I'm not a gushy, easily crying person but hot damn would that make me bawl buckets.

ArdentAspen In reply to MiniKoontzy [2016-03-02 04:09:16 +0000 UTC]

same here! Especially if you stop to consider that the kids must've seen Optimus as a father-figure, and then they lose him, and for Jack it'd be like a second father leaving him....and now Optimus is back and they have to wonder, where has he been?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

MiniKoontzy In reply to ArdentAspen [2016-03-02 17:57:51 +0000 UTC]

That leaves a question though: did 'Bee or the others just never tell them? Ratchet knew what happened. He was there, remember? But the kids weren't. Did none of them tell them what happened? Did they just never ask? Or did they keep it from them to lessen the pain that might come with telling?

ArdentAspen In reply to MiniKoontzy [2016-03-02 19:45:12 +0000 UTC]

I assume they knew that Optimus sacrificed himself for his planet...but then finding him alive, years later...well, that's going to raise some questions

Depending on how many years it's been, maybe. I mean, if it's been 10-15 years, she's probably mellowed out a bit...and probably also become more deadly on the field...

At the least, I'd say more Bulkhead and less Wheeljack in temperament.

Not that that's going to keep her from badgering Raf to make musical grenades for her that explode with the sounds of guitar riffs.

It's not unprecedented, Rad, Carlos and Alexis showed up occasionally in energon and they and Kicker showed up in the finale of Cybertron.

Why not all three? Tiny spy bots with a self destruct mechanism, made to look like jellybeans because who is going to be suspicious of jellybeans for Peat's Sake? Β

knowing Raf, it probably is all three. With all his tech genius and the never-explained "can understand Cybertronian like a native" stuff, he's probably an absolute menace at Unit E HQ

Which Raf probably hates, since that's his best friend, but they can't blow his cover and have him dragged back to Cybertron, now can they? I suspect Jazz is in on this "nefarious" plot.
