The revolution begins (transformers 1x1 with Kia-bee)

"i don't get it. last time i checked, she was stationed in the states and every autobot there either withdrew their weaponry from the safes or kept it permanently locked in the safes. the locks on the safes were digit print scanner based, there's no way she could have got them. it was programmed to only let us have access" loco motion explained. "she made a deal with the decepticons!" mirage growled. "she got a weapon off of Barricade! how he got his servos on a spark shifter to give to her is beyond me but she got it! and now look at jolt drive!" from Mirage's explanation loco glanced at crosshairs. "did i hear that correctly? a spark shifter? you're telling me this is the kind of weapon that can shift someone's spark and change their personality completely? and Mearing got one?!" she asked. "yes!" mirage yelled.

Diamond looked at her. "a-and the reason was..."

[Kia_Bee]

"Primus..." Crosshairs muttered, shaking his helm. "Alright, then we find it. Get it to turn her back."

"I'm not sure." Tink said sadly.

[the machine]

"Mearing destroyed it..." Mirage grew tired from his frustration and fell to his knees. "this was part of her plan... to get jolt drive to grow up..." Mirage started to fee sick

"then w-w-why did someone put m-my papa in a st-stasis pod?" Diamond started to growl

[Kia_Bee]

Crosshairs snarled at this, disliking the woman more. "Never trusted her from day one." He growled.


"I don't know...but I think I know someone who would." Tink said.

[the machine]

"neither did i... all she did was belittle jolt drive, think of her as a child, just make her feel horrible... and now, she crossed a line with my cousin..." mirage growled and started to get up and punched the wall. "she took Jolt drive away!" he yelled

"w-who? who put p-papa in the stasis p-pod?!" Diamond asked

[Kia_Bee]

"We'll find another one and turn her back." Crosshairs said, placing a servo on his shoulder.

"I don't think it was her directly, but Cagebar would know exactly who." Tink replied

[the machine]

"it doesn't work like that... once someone's spark shifts it's hard for them to turn back, even with a spark shifter." Mirage quietly told Crosshairs. loco motion sighed. "Mirage... i know it's hard to even think right now, but i need you to trust that we'll fix jolt drive and help you bring her back." she told him.


"w-who's that?" Diamond asked, raising an optic ridge

[Kia_Bee]

Unbeknownst to the three of them, Bee had overheard them. His spark sank in sadness yet hummed angrily at knowing the truth.

"Someone who can help, but you can't tell anyone else about her." Tink said.

[the machine]

Mirage huffed. "Some time... per favore?" "Of course" loco nodded and stepped back, giving mirage some space from the information he just told them.

Diamond looked at Tink. "W-why?"

[Kia_Bee]

Crosshairs nodded in reply, stepping back as well.

"Because she needs to be kept a secret." Tink replied
