Over the course of the next few days, the 'bots would go about their daily business, one combat training with Icestriker, and the other practicing repairs with Ratchet. During the night, however, they trained with each other on completely different things.
On the fifth day, a sort of sadness passed through four members of the base. Jadefire observed the four of them sitting in the Autobot area, talking and forcing laughs. "What's wrong with all them?" she asked Jolt as he walked by.
"The humans are leaving tomorrow," he said. "So Bumblebee and Icestriker are making sure to spend what time they have left together, laughing and making moments."
Jadefire frowned as Jolt left. She had forgotten all about the fact the humans were only staying for a short amount of time, for Sam and Mikaela to sort out their priorities. She just hadn't realized the week had passed by so fast. The sound of a larger 'bot approaching pulled her from her thoughts.
"This will be difficult on many levels," Optimus said, observing the four from where she stood.
"Sir?"
"I am having Bumblebee return to California with Sam, for more protection."
Jadefire frowned and looked to her brother. "And Icestriker?"
"He is to remain here while Katrina leaves as well."
"But Sir, that's not entirely—"
"Think about it, Jade. If I allowed him to go back with her, considering the… relationship they've started, she'd be in more danger with him around. This way, the Decepticons will never find out and use her against him."
She thought this over for a few seconds, watching their gazes grow sad. "I suppose it makes sense. It's just not fair to him—to them."
"Nothing is fair in times of war."
"We'll have to hold off on sending them home for a few more days," said a human by their legs.
They looked down to see Major Lennox looking quite perturbed. "Why is that, William?" Optimus asked.
"Our new president is requesting the presence of the military's new secret. Meaning you all."
"That's absurd. We're supposed to stay hidden, remember?" Jadefire argued. "And besides, what do they want us to do? Put on circus tents for dresses and long ropes for ties?"
"Good thing you all have perfected your holoforms," Will said with a grin. "They'll get what they want with this party, and none will be any wiser."
They wasted no time in getting the planes loaded up with gear, humans, and Transformers alike. Due to the bumpy ride it always gave in the huge jets, they each were restricted to their alt modes and covered in nets.
Ironhide grunted uncomfortably, starting to feel restricted due to the nets, while the humans contentedly rode in the comfier part up by the pilots.
"I don't like it as much as you don't, Big Guy," Sideswipe said.
Icestriker snorted. "Can't be too much longer."
"Another five hours," Arcee grumbled. "Best to just recharge. The jet lag will catch up to us if we don't."
"Arcee is right," Optimus said, clearly cramped compared to the rest of them. "In the meantime, work on your holos so they'll blend in formally. Icestriker, you especially."
The young 'bot merely grumbled in response.
Jadefire opened her comlink for a private conversation with Ironhide. "Are you all right?"
"Hate planes," he answered simply.
"I admit, a cruiser would have been nicer, but much more conspicuous."
"Not to mention the one you came on was reduced to scrap."
"That too." She mused for a bit. "Y'know, I've never seen your holo before."
"Nothing special."
"I'm sure it is. You're just modest."
He wanted to roll his optics. "You can judge for yourself tomorrow night."
"Ah, so I get to be your date?"
"Don't push it, Sweetheart."
"Crab."
"I don't scuttle. Go to recharge."
She sighed. "You're no fun."
"What, were you expecting comsex or something?"
Lucky for her, the plane turned the exact time she jerked forward. "Wait, there's such a thing?"
"You use your imagination. Not very gratifying though, especially when you're not alone. So, until then, recharge."
She grumbled. "Fine." Right before she disconnected the link, she slyly added in, "But when we're alone, I'll let you see my holo naked." As she cut the link, she could have sworn she heard his engine race slightly.
Wee! Slightly different direction than I was originally going to go, but this path should make it loads more interesting than where I was originally going. I love the faves and alerts, but I'd also really like to hear how you guys are liking this.
