Chapter One HundredFour: Three Way Split
Optimus sighed as he drove down the highway. It had only been a few hours and he was already getting a rather bad feeling about this trip. From getting lost before they even left the city, to the toll fiasco, to the twins showing up, it seemed as if this was going to be a road trip to remember…
‘And why in the name of Primus do the humans keep honking at me?’ he wondered as another car speed past, honking madly. “-Humans are strange…-” he muttered.
“-What?-” Ratchet pulled up along his opposite side, honestly curious. “-Are you all right there Optimus?-”
Optimus let out another sigh. “-I don’t know why but I just--”
“-Sunny! SLOW DOWN!-” Ratchet suddenly bellowed and Optimus glanced at the Gallardo. Apparently he’d been gaining in speed in small increments. “-Sorry Optimus. You were saying?-”
Optimus just groaned. “-I have a bad feeling about this.-”
Ratchet seemed surprised at this. “-A bad feeling? What do you mean a bad feeling?-”
“-I don’t know,-” Optimus groaned. “-There’s just something that’s telling me that something’s going to happen on this trip.-”
“-A feeling of foreboding huh?-” Ratchet chuckled. “-I don’t know Optimus. I think that there’s going to be a lot happening on this trip. Especially with the twins along…-”
“-It’s not the twins that have me worried,-” Optimus grumbled.
“-You’re worried about the ‘Cons?-” Ratchet asked taken aback. “-Do you not trust them?-”
Optimus was quiet for a moment. "-No, I do trust them,-” he finally sighed. “-I don’t know what I’m freaking out about Ratch'. Barricade I have no problem with and Soundwave was always Megatron’s most devoted Decepticons so we know he has no loyalty to Starscream…-” Ratchet waited patiently. “-And then we have the humans with us.-” Optimus finally continued.“-I know that the rangers can take care of themselves but it’s Sam I worry about. He always seems to end up in the thick of things and you know that Energon is no joking matter. If it’s unstable up there…-” The two drove in silence for a while. “-And we don’t even know what the Energon will do to them!-” Optimus suddenly burst out.“-What if it kills them? It’s a highly dangerous substance to begin with and it’s never been in contact with humans that we know about.-”
Ratchet just made a small noncommittal noise and the two continued in silence for another mile. “-Feel better?-” Ratchet finally asked.
Optimus thought a moment. “-Yeah,-” he sighed.
“-Do you think we should turn around?”- Ratchet finally asked worriedly. “-Wait until we have more information then try again?-”
Optimus seriously considered it for a long moment. “-I don’t know. There’s still the possibility that Starscream may already be on his way and you know he won’t bother to get all the facts before he starts harvesting them. Why we had to leave so quickly.-”
“-So what are you going to do about that feeling of yours?-”
“-I don’t know,-” Optimus groaned. “-We’re already on the road.-”
“-I’ll speak to Wheeljack later, see what he thinks about the situation,-” Ratchet finally offered.
There was a sigh from Optimus. “-Thanks.-”
Another car passed them with a quick honk. “-Why do they keep honking at us?-” Perceptor’s voice suddenly asked from the trailer, sounding more than annoyed.
“-That’s what I want to know,-” Optimus bit out sourly.
Barricade sniggered as another car passed the Autobot leader while honking madly. “I wonder if anyone’s called that number yet,” he asked his two passengers.
“Who-who-who knows,” Frenzy said as he stretched out his arms in front of him.
Rumble stared at Frenzy before he looked down at the dash then finally sitting back with a huff. “I think this planet has corrupted the lot of you!” he snarled. “Frenzy could have been killed.”
“You have to admit it’s was worth it though,” Barricade laughed as another car passed by beeping its horn. Rumble shook his head as he sat back again while the other two laughed.
Barricade’s radio suddenly clicked on, startling them. “-You do know he’s going to be pissed at you, right?-” Bumblebee’s disapproving voice came over the waves.
“The only ones who know it was us are you and Soundwave and I highly doubt that Soundwave’s going to tell him,” Barricade snickered back.
“-Leave me out of this,-” Soundwave’s flat voice broke in.
Barricade just laughed. “Don’t you know that eavesdropping is considered rude on this planet?”
“-Not when you have two of my teammates with you, no.-”
Rumble looked instantly annoyed but Frenzy laughed. “Check-ck-cking up-p-p on us-s?”
“We can take care of ourselves,” Rumble muttered sourly. Frenzy just grinned and patted the other mech’s knee.
“I k-k-know.”
“-If Optimus doesn’t go after you then either Ironhide or Ratchet will,-” ‘Bee rejoined the conversation. “-Just because of all the annoyances.-”
“-It’s actually quite normal to see things like that written on the tractor trailers,-” Sam’s voice suddenly broke through.
“-Still,-” ‘Bee didn’t sound that convinced.
“-Really,-” Miles agreed. “-Actually, if you added ‘wash me’ it wouldn’t look any different than any other truck.-”
Barricade just laughed. “Where do you think we got the idea?”
“-Just don’t do it again,-” Bumblebee told them sternly.
“Yes mother,” Barricade drawled and Frenzy started to chortle neurotically. Rumble just slouched down further in his seat, wondering if Frenzy would get pissed at him if he said he wanted to ride with Soundwave again.
“-I’m serious here,-” ‘Bee threatened over the laughter.
“All right,” Barricade finally got himself under control. “We won’t do anything else… today.”
Bumblebee made a strangled sound over the radio and Barricade and Frenzy shared another laugh. “-It’s the best we can hope for ‘Bee,-” they could hear Sam say.
“-Crazy ‘Cons,-” ‘Bee muttered.
“-What’s going on over here?-” Everyone went quiet as Prowl soon appeared next to Bumblebee.
“Nothing officer, honest,” Barricade chuckled and there was another indistinct sound from Bumblebee.
Prowl was quiet for a moment, clearly knowing that something was indeed going on but he had yet to figure out what it was. “-Well behave,-” he said sternly.
“-Yes sir,-” ‘Bee responded promptly.
Prowl still didn’t leave. “-Barricade…-”
“What?” the second police car asked innocently.
“-Did you hear me?-”
“Oh we heard you,” Barricade answered aloud before his voice went quieter so he was only speaking to Frenzy and Rumble. “Whether or not we’re going to listen to you…” The other two ‘Cons snickered quietly.
“-Good.-”
They drove in silence for a while before Barricade finally had to ask. “Was there something else you wanted?”
His inquiry seemed to shake Prowl out of whatever thoughts he had been lost in. “-Carry on then,-” Prowl said quickly before he pulled forward and started weaving through the group, slowing down to speak to someone every so often.
“-Takes his job very seriously, doesn’t he?-” Soundwave spoke again.
“-Yes, he does,-” Bumblebee sighed.
“Quite aggravating, if you asked me,” Barricade huffed.
“-We didn’t,-” ‘Bee assured him. Soundwave just snickered.
“-Hey Wheeljack, have you seen Jazz?-”
“What?” Wheeljack finally took his optics off Ratchet’s rear bumper and was surprised to find Prowl next to him. “I thought he was with you.”
“-He was,-” Prowl sighed. “-I went to check on the ‘Cons and now I don’t see him.-”
“How are the boys?” One of Wheeljack’s passengers quickly asked, abandoning his own conversation.
There was a pause from Prowl. “-I am sorry Mr. Lancaster but I forgot to ask.-”
Ron made a small dismissing noise. “Don’t worry about it. They’re with ‘Bee and ‘Cade anyway. What could possibly happen?”
“True,” Steve nodded. “Sorry to interrupt,” he apologized to the two Autobots.
“No, it’s all right,” Wheeljack assured him. The two humans went back to their own conversation about building something called a gym and something called a greenhouse when they got back to the base and Wheeljack looked back to Prowl. “Don’t worry about Jazz,” he reassured the commander. “He couldn’t have gotten far.”
“-I don’t like him wandering off by himself,-” Prowl grumbled.
“He can take care of himself,” Wheeljack said carefully, knowing how worried Prowl was about his mate since learning of the Sparkling he carried.
“-He shouldn’t even be coming along on this trip,-” Prowl snarled, his scanners searching for Jazz’s alt form.
“Try telling him that,” Wheeljack just laughed.
“-There he is,-” Prowl suddenly huffed as a Pontiac Solstice tore past them.
“Good luck,” Wheeljack called after him as Prowl took off after the other car. With a mental shake of his head, Wheeljack increased his speed and pulled up next to Ratchet and Optimus. “How are things going over here?” he asked with a small chuckle.
“-If people would stop honking at me, it would be wonderful,-” Optimus muttered.
“-Don’t mind him,-” Ratchet laughed. “-He’s just getting a little cranky.-”
“-Can you blame me?-” Optimus growled.
“-Nope,-” Ironhide pulled up alongside the group before pulling back and slipping behind Wheeljack to allow the normal traffic to pass in at least one of the four lanes.
“-And we haven’t even left the state yet,-” Will spoke up, finally looking up from his book. “-There are still two more to go.-”
“-And a whole other country after that,-” Ratchet sighed. “-Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a few Lambos to chase after.-”
The other three Autobots glanced over to see that the Lambo’s had apparently slowed down next to a school bus full of screaming cheerleaders. “-Brazen, aren’t they?-” Ironhide laughed as Ratchet managed to get right on Sideswipes tail without the other mech even noticing him and the medic gave the youngster a sudden push.
“-At least they’re behaving,-” Optimus sighed as they moved off and seemed to speed up in order to catch up with Prowl while Ratchet dropped back a little to let a small truck get past.
“True,” Wheeljack chuckled as he and Ironhide switched to the outer lane in order to pass a rather slow moving minivan. “I’m going to go catch up with Ratchet,” Wheeljack announced as he picked up some speed and went after the emergency unit.
“-Have fun,-” Ironhide called after him and the last thing Wheeljack heard from them was Ironhide asking Optimus. “-So why do you think Jazz isn’t slowing down for Prowl?-”
“-Who knows.-”
“Jazz better be driving carefully,” Prowl muttered as he kept the small silver car in his line of sight.
“-Hey Prowl!-”
“-Yo Prowl! Wait up!-”
“Primus help me,” Prowl muttered under his breath.
“-This is fun! I don’t know why you guys wouldn’t let us come before,-” Sideswipe said cheerfully as he pulled up next to Prowl’s left while his other half appeared on his right.
“-Now these are roads,-” Sunstreaker said exuberantly. “-No bumps, no pot holes and better yet, they aren’t made of dirt!-”
“You two get back to the others,” Prowl snarled. “We all have to stay together!”
“-Aw we’re fine,-” Sideswipe insisted. “-Look, here comes Ironhide.-”
“Is there something wrong Ironhide?” Prowl instantly called over, worry evident in his voice.
“-Naw,-” Ironhide’s gruff voice drawled back at him. “-Thought you could use a hand with Thing One and Thing Two.-”
There was silence from Prowl momentarily. “What things?”
There was suddenly uncontrollable laughter on Ironhide’s end. “-Man we so need to get you more immersed in Earth culture,-” Ironhide laughed. “-Remind me at the next stop and I’ll upload a few links.-”
“-At least the American culture. There’s too much diversity on our planet for him to really learn everything on one trip.-” Will clarified.
Ironhide just laughed as the twins dropped back to drive beside the large gunner. “-Wait, you didn’t explain!-” Sideswipe complained. “-What things?-”
Barricade sighed as he went around another slow moving car. “That’s the one thing about this alt mode,” he growled annoyed. “Stupid humans see me and suddenly start obeying speed limits.”
“-You’re the one who had to chose a figure of authority,-” ‘Bee chuckled as he followed Barricade’s path.
“-Though we should speed up. The others are getting rather ahead of us,-” Soundwave announced from behind them.
“Nah,” Barricade replied. “I can still see Optimus.”
“He is rather hard to miss,” a deep voice spoke.
“Primus, can’t you just stay in recharge or something?” Rumble groaned as he slouched back in his seat and dark red optics turned to him as Megatron smirked.
“No.”
“Primus help me,” Barricade sighed.
“-Hey ‘Cade? You just went quiet. I don’t think that’s a good thing,-” ‘Bee called out.
“It’s nothing,” ‘Cade responded over the radio, “just dealing with our resident megalomaniac.”
“Who are you calling a maniac?” Megatron snapped, completely ignoring Rumble’s barely suppressed laughter.
“-Oh,-” ‘Bee’s was suddenly quite subdued and Megatron shook his head as he sat back and tried to get comfortable.
“They still don’t trust me,” he muttered.
“Can you blame him?” Barricade huffed back. Megatron just shrugged and the mustang sighed.
“-Just be grateful that the human with me is asleep,-” Soundwave suddenly spoke.
Megatron actually started at this before he processed what was said. “Forgot about him,” he muttered sourly.
“-Human’s sure sleep a lot,-” Buzzsaw’s voice suddenly came out of the speakers.
“-Kind of like someone else we both know,-” Laserbeak chuckled.
“-Do not poke the cat,-” Soundwave suddenly scolded as there was the sound of an angry hiss.
Rumble and Barricade started chuckling. “Poor Ravage. No one ever leaves him alone,” Barricade laughed.
“Of course not,” Rumble told him. “It wouldn’t be any fun if we did.”
Barricade laughed again at this. “True,” he replied. “So how’s everything with you?” he called back to ‘Bee.
“-We’re good on our end,-” Sam sent back with a laugh of his own. “-Apparently better than Ravage.-”
“-I think my foot’s asleep,-” Miles was suddenly heard saying. “-Do we have any more soda in the cooler?-”
Barricade just laughed again. “Just relax Lancaster. We’re only three hours into this you know.”
“-I know, that’s what worries me,-” ‘Bee retorted.
“What’s the worst that could happen?” Barricade snickered.
“-Hey guys! What’s going on back here?-” Jazz’s cheerful voice piped up as he suddenly pulled up next to the patrol car.
“Spoke too soon,” Barricade stated sourly.
“-What?-” Jazz asked innocently. “-What’s up over here?-”
“Not much actually,” Barricade replied. “I just wish these stupid humans would speed up. Where did they all come from anyway?”
“-I think there’s a major town ahead or something,-” ‘Bee answered him. “-Stockton or something.-”
“These humans need to move their afts,” Rumble growled as he glared at the slow moving sedan ahead of them.
“It ‘ass’,” Barricade corrected with a snicker, ignoring Bumblebee’s shocked gasp behind him.
“Well whatever it is, they need to move it,” Rumble finished as Bumblebee connected again.
“-‘Cade! Language!-”
“What?” Barricade responded back sardonically. “Sam knows some of the worse Cybertronion swears, I think he can handle ‘ass’.”
There was muttering from the camaro as Jazz began laughing. “-Are you two sure you’re friends?-” he asked with amusement.
“Certainly not!” and “-You’re kidding, right?-” were thrown back at him and Jazz laughed again.
Barricade was the first one to get his annoyance under control. “Shouldn’t we be catching up to the others?” he asked aggravated.
“-Yeah, I suppose you’re right,-” ‘Bee sighed. Suddenly the young Autobot was right on Barricade’s tail. “-Where are they?-”
“-I do not see Optimus Prime,-” Soundwave told them from the rear.
“-But I do see Prowl,-” Jazz replied. “-Optimus is probably stuck with the other trucks.-”
“True,” Barricade chuckled. “Lead on McDuff.”
Misfire sighed as he made his way towards the highway he preferred to watch, far away from the Decepticons as possible without leaving communications range. “Stupid slaggers. Why is everthing always my fault?" he grumbled as he plopped down on the ridge again to watch the cars go by.
He scowled as he remembered the argument that morning. Of course, everyone had blamed him for the tower coming down despite the fact that he had been absolutely nowhere near it when it fell. Not that it mattered to the other Decepticons, oh no. They had instantly began yelling at him after Starscream had left.
Sighing, the small red mech leaned back against a tree and began watching the traffic go by. He had placed himself by two off-ramps and so he had an interesting time watching the humans all jockey for position as they tried to make their exits off of I-five. He snickered as one car cut off another and there was mass honking from the ugly compact. “Humans,” he snickered. “Stuck on the ground with no way up.”
Stretching a bit, Misfire sat back and got back into a better position when his sensors picked up. He sat up startled as he looked at the highway critically. The human’s equipment wouldn’t set off his alarms so what the heck was that? He began studying the strange ping so closely that he almost missed it when four interesting vehicles suddenly speed by in a cluster. Misfire blinked as he watched the unique vehicles go by and up the ramp to the right, all speeding past a rather slow moving Cadillac. “When do you see Lamborghini’s way out here?” he muttered as he watched them go.
With a shrug, he went back to watching the main roadway as he examined the strange ping. Once again, Misfire was rather surprised as he saw a large truck pass him by with flames designed on the front of the hood. It was one of the more interesting designs he had seen so far and was again surprised to find this truck also in a small cluster of interesting cars. A large hummer with a rather large sporty car speed past him, continuing down five.
“Well, this certainly is the day for car watching,” the ‘Con chuckled as he watched them go.
He turned back to the oncoming traffic, now rather interested in what was going to go by next when he sat up in shock as he stared at the familiar shape now coming down the road. Now he knew what that strange ping had been and it wasn’t so strange at all! The only thing was he wasn’t really expecting a fellow Decepticon way out here, and certainly not Soundwave who had been missing for over two months now.
“Wait a minute,” Misfire suddenly muttered as he zoomed in on the three cars surrounding the large communications vehicle. “Those can’t be the humans,” he said in surprise as he suddenly spotted the two passengers in the shiny patrol car.
“Rumble!” he cried in surprise as he saw the small figure slouching in the seat. He glanced at Rumble's companion and started again. “And Frenzy? I thought he was dead...”
It was then that Misfire realized something and he looked back to where the other two groups of strange cars had gone. “The Autobots!” he shouted amazed and just a bit embarresed. “I should have known!”
He turned back towards Soundwave just in time to see the group pull off towards the left exit ramp. “Um…” Misfire suddenly had a bad feeling about this. ‘The first group had gone on the right exit ramp, hadn’t they?’ he wondered as he watched the small group turn off. “And the other went straight!” he cried in surprise as he leapt to his feet. “So just what the slag are those Auto-fools up to now?”
Misfire was at a bit of a loss. Just which ones should he follow? He shrugged and glanced at the far exit that went left. “Well, I can at least figure out what Soundwave is up too,” he said aloud as he stepped back in order to get some room to transform. It was then that his radio pinged.
“-Misfire!-” Starscream’s agitated voice suddenly assaulted his audio sensors. “-Get back to base and help with the clean up!-”
“But Starscream, sir! You’ll never believe what I just-”
“-No excuses!-” Starscream bellowed. “-Get back here and help clean the mess!-”
Misfire frowned as the radio abruptly went dead. He glanced back at the exit ramp and shrugged. “One more thing no one cares about,” he sighed as he turned back around to head back to Yosemite park. “First Energon and now the Autobots,” he muttered as he quickly changed to jet form and took off from the ground, startling the humans in their cars on the highway. “Why dose no one ever listen to me?”
