Old Friends

PART 1
Rhinox was working in the valley when Optimus and SilverBolt flew up.
Optimus: "any progress on the transporter Rhinox?"
Rhinox: "nope I can't get it to work properly, plus I don't think all the test tubes I sent out made it to Cybertron."
SilverBolt {with a confused look}: "what is this thing supposed to do anyway?"
Rhinox: "well, if it works it should transport an object to any point within the Universe, but so far the tests have not shone results."
Optimus: "well keep working on it...........HEY"
A blast from an energy weapon nocks Optimus down.
SilverBolt: "were under attack by Waspinator and Inferno"
Rhinox {sarcastically}: "YOU THINK"
The explosions grow louder as Rhinox and SilverBolt exchange Fire with the Predicons. Out of no were a laser beam accidentally hits the Transporter.
KABOOM!
Rhinox {slowly}: "what the heck happened?"
SilverBolt: "I don't, know but I think it had to do with the......."
Rhinox stared were Silver Bolt was looking and saw 6 bodies and farther away were 6 more.
SilverBolt: "Those look like Transformers from were I stand, only historical?"
Rhinox: "If my memory serves me right those bodies are Autobots, I can't tell who they are from here, lets move in closer."
SilverBolt: "Wait, you go I'll see to Optimus."
Rhinox crept forward until he was able to see the features of the closest Autobot when he did he was so astonished he couldn't move.
Rhinox: "Optimus Prime, but how?"
Farther away Waspinator and Inferno started pulling Descepticons back toward the Predicon base. About an hour later Cheetor flew in to asist with hauling the other Autobots back to the Axelon. The Autobots that were found consisted of Mirage, Sandstorm, Hoist, Hubcap, and Optimus Prime.
Optimus Primal: "How are the Autobots doing?"
Rattrap: "Well, Rhinox was about to give them a Beast form but then he started mumbling about trying to keep there vehicle forms. So I said to him Why don't you give them Armored vehicle forms that can withstand the energon, sorta like the beautiful Transmetals especially me?"
Optimus Primal: "Did he come up with a way to do that?" Rattrap: "Yea, but it takes a little while, You know, he's gotta go threw all that stuff with the history files to and then do the modification bit. So it's taken him awhile, OK."
Optimus Primal: "Very well. Are any of the Autobots on-line yet?"
Rattrap: "Well one of them groaned a bit but then he went out to no were again. I think his name was, uh, Hoist, yea that was it!"
Just then Rhinox's voice came over the communicator.
Rhinox: "All Maximals please meet me and are new guests outside."
Outside everyone started to assemble when Rhinox and five very supped up robots came up to them.
Rhinox: "Maximals, I'd like to introduce to you all, Mirage, Sandstorm, Hoist, Hubcap, and Optimus Prime of the Autobot battle fleet.
All five Autobots had a new armored and heavily weaponed body that when in vehicle mode could withstand the the energon on the Planet.
Optimus Prime: "Thank you Rhinox but we still don't know where we are and why we're here?"
Optimus Primal: "According to the data we've obtained, when we were testing are new transporter and it got damaged you got pulled out of your time stream and got sent to ours."
SilverBolt: "Plus along with you came five Descepticons and according to the history records they were Soundwave, Starscream, ThunderCracker, Skywarp, and, Megatron."
Cheetor: "Oh great all we need now is to deal with Starscream again, if he's on-line now he's probably thinking how to get back at us!"
Rattrap: "Are you an IDIOT or somethin, if Starscream is here from the great war that means he hasn't gotten blasted to slag yet and he doesn't even know who we are yet, Kapeesh?"
Cheetor: "oh yea your right sorry."
Mirage: "Starscream has been here before?"
Rhinox: "we'll tell you about it later."
Optimus Prime: "How come we're in these new bodies?"
Optimus Primal: "If we hadn't put you in those new forms you would probably have gone into stasis lock by now from the energon radiation."
A loud battle cry came from eachside of the group as they sat. Then laser fire came from both ends of the field.
Cheetor: "It's the Preds there attacking us."
Rattrap{sarcastically}: "Boy you should get a prize for that observation!"
Just then laser fire filled the hole field and the mighty voice of the leader of the Predicons shouted out.
Megatron: "PREDICONS TERRORIZE!"
Optimus Primal: "Optimus Prime take your Autobots to the other side of the field and engage the Descepticons!"
Optimus Prime: "Were on it! Autobots Transform and roll out!"
Rattrap: "Gee who'd a thought he'd say that?"
Optimus Primal: "Shut up Rattrap."
Original Megatron: "Descepticons Transform and attack!"
Both Megatron's lead there armys into two mighty battles. The Decepticons also in an heavily armored form engage the Autobots and the Predicons engage the Maximals.
