TFP: Legend of the ArchAngels (1x1 with Kia-Bee)

"He tricked us. He still has Echo." Tink said, looking at Optimus.

"Not actually a human." Starscream said. "She's a pretender."

[the machine]

Optimus was about to say something when Arcee stepped in. "Now what Jolt Drive? You were the one who came up with the plan in the first place" she told Jolt Drive. "Arcee, that's enough" Optimus told the two wheeler femme. "there is no possible way that Jolt drive could have known"

"oh... pretending to be a human." Eureka corrected herself. "i don't see the reason why any cybertroian with self respect would even want to be one"

[Kia_Bee]

"None of us could have known." Tink said in Jolt Drive's defense.

"You and I both." Starscream said. "We have to make sure she doesn't escape until Shockwave arrives."

[the machine]

optimus nodded in agreement with Tink's statement "Tink is correct, no one could have been prepared for Megatron to do that"

Eureka groaned a little. "that will take so long" she walked over to a bench and sat on top of it

[Kia_Bee]

"So what do we do now? Megatron still has Echo and won't likely trust us for another trade." Spitfire said.

"Hopefully he'll use a ground bridge." Starscream muttered

[the machine]

"looks like we'll have to steal her from the nemesis" Mirage thought. then Jolt Drive lighted up. "and, we can swap real Echo with fake Echo."

Eureka nodded. "i mean look at her, she can take care of herself. she's weak against the restraints, why does megatron want us to guard her. some troops can do it"

[Kia_Bee]

"But wouldn't Megatron already know about the fake?" Spitfire asked.

"Probably because the Arch-" Starscream said before suddenly stopping.

[the machine]

"not when he's disorientated" Jolt Drive held up a small vile she had gotten from her hip subspace. "stole this from eureka a week ago. it's the venom of a cybertronian snake that can send anyone into stasis lock. she thinks it fell"

Eureka looked at starscream '"what's up?" she asked him

[Kia_Bee]

Tink looked at Jolt Drive, a clearly worried expression on her faceplate as she turned to look at Ratchet.

"Of course. He kept her because she knows about the Archangels."

[the machine]

ratchet was shocked. "you stole a vile of venom form eureka?!"

"you're right. but why can't he get soundwave to do this?" eureka complained.
