Jasper: Here is the new chapter! Finally! I'm so sorry for the delay, folks. My computer crashed. And when I say crashed I mean CRASHED, taking most of my files with it. Don't you just hate technology sometimes? Meh, I'm kidding. I love my computer to pieces. Sad, I know. But enough about me and my disturbing affairs- ON TO THE STORY!!

Rumble stared at Prowl in shock. How in Primus's name did he find them?! Soundwave was practically untraceable! The Autobot certainly shouldn't have been able to find them. Rumble started to feel a little uneasy; he wasn't sure how they were going to get out of this one. Even if Soundwave shot Prowl and-

Hey, that's a pretty good idea! Rumble thought to himself. Symphony and Buzzsaw turned to him, confused.

What's a pretty good idea? Buzzsaw asked him. The young Cassette grinned at the yellow condor, The Boss can shoot Prowl! Then, we'll be rid of the Auto-scum and we can get a move on and meet Screamer, Megs and Shockwave at the TBO.

What's the 'TBO'?

Stands for Temporary Base of Operations. Duh. Don't you know anything? Rumble snorted at Buzzsaw.

It does not! You made that up. And wouldn't it be 'TBOO'? Temporary Base Of Operations?

No, 'cause ya leave out the 'o' of 'Of' out. Bird-brain. And besides, 'TBOO' sounds really stupid. Like you. You're stupid.

Am not!

Am too!

I think you mean 'are too', Symphony corrected, if you're going to exchange insignificant insults, please, make sure your grammar isn't as bad as your comebacks. You've had many an argument that are exactly like this one. Last time Rumble and Frenzy went on for twenty-three minutes and seventeen seconds. We do not need a repeat. And besides- Symphony's voice turned stern, there is an Autobot officer standing outside the car and all you can do is fight?!

Which reminds me! Rumble exclaimed, Soundwave can just shoot him! This idea was met with blank stares. Rumble. We all thought of that, and we all came to the same conclusion it's a really stupid idea. Shooting a police officer isn't going to help us lie low! Symphony snapped.

They wouldn't know it was us!

Ruben- I mean, Rumble, there is a camera right over there, stationed on the lamp post.

Aw, slag.

Rumble: attention. Language: unacceptable.

"There's a fragging Autobot interrogating you, and you still have time to reprimand me on my language?!" Rumble cried. Then he noticed everyone looking at him and realised he'd shouted the last part out loud.

"Um. We gonna be tried as adults or…" the rest trailed off in nervous laughter.

"They're not following us."

Megatron turned to his SIC and frowned. "What do you mean 'they're not following us'?"

Starscream gave him a withering stare and a sigh that Longhaul would be severely proud of, "I mean that they're not following us. Soundwave. And his Cassettes. I can't see them. They're no behind us and I'm not picking them up on the scanner." As if to prove his point the Seeker tapped the infernal contraption in his hand and it beeped loudly. And then it beeped again. And again. And then it wouldn't stop.

"Okay, Starscream! We get the point, you can't see them, and the scanner isn't picking them up! You can stop it now!" Megatron snapped.

"I'm trying! The Primus forsaken button is stuck!" the Seeker spat back.

"What, the green one?" Shockwave asked from the back seat.

"No, the red one."

"The red one. Why is it always the red one?" Megatron muttered to himself.

"Probably because the red button usually symbolises something important and-"

"Shut up, Shockwave." Starscream sneered.

2 minutes if almost-silence as the scanner continued to beep.

"Starscream, would you shut that thing up?!" Megatron snarled, Starscream only sneered at him.

3 minutes later, Megatron was pretty sure he was going to kill his subordinate if he didn't stop that thing soon.

5 minutes later, Megatron was pretty sure he was going to make it very painful.

7 minutes later, Megatron was pretty sure he was going to kill Shockwave too. Just for fun.

2 minutes later- it stopped, and Megatron breathed a sigh of relief. Then the beeping intensified and became a shrill whining sound. It sounded like someone was strangling a cat. Or Starscream. It took most of Megatron's willpower not to smash his head into the steering wheel and kill everyone in the car. Although killing everyone in the car would make him feel better. Except for himself. Killing himself would not make him feel better.

"What's up with it now?!" Megatron roared at Starscream.

"Um, it says there are Autobots back there." Starscream said.

"Back where?!"

"Er, back there." The Seeker gestured behind him.

"Soundwave…" the tyrant growled.

"No, Autobots. Though I suppose Soundwave is probably back there too."

Megatron ignored the babbling Seeker and spun the wheel, turning the car and upsetting the other motorists. "Right." He muttered as he drove off in the direction of his TIC, "I am so going to kill someone."
