"Well?" KO finally asked.

"Oh we drugged them and killed them." Meg started.

I jumped up.

"Kidding." He said grumpily as Oppy poked his helm out, he was elbowed back by Meg, "Five meters radius." He told him.

"But-" Oppy started.

"It was on the treaty." Megatron reminded him with a snarl.

"Lemme see it." I said and rushed in to the big monitor with words on it, and signatures at the bottom.

There were a bunch of clauses with a bunch of paragraphs, complicated peace treaty stuff. But when I got to the bottom- "ExCuSE Me!?" My plating puffed up in outrage.

External Clause 32:

Paragraph 1:

Optimus Prime must hold a five meter radius to Quillux while on the Nemesis.

The audacity! I stomped up to Megatron and Optimus, one took a step back, "You-" I spluttered, "He signed that, I didn't, so technically I can get up close and personal against his will and it wouldn't violate the treaty." I huffed.

Meg's smug smile faded fast, "Wait-"

But I was already after Oppy, who was trying his best to follow the rules of the treaty. I swear they made a bet about who would break a rule first.

"We can just jump off the Nemesis and then hug." Oppy offered as we both came to a stop, five meters apart. Ratchet and Magnus came around, seeming rather satisfied. "And we need to brief the others." He added.

I huffed and pulled up a ground bridge for them at a nearby monitor. Oppy promised to be back.

Wait.

They forgot Bumblebee.

I would like a word with you. Meg started.

About? I asked as I started walking back, I came within range soon enough. "So the war's over?" I asked.

"Yes, happy?" He asked.

"Simply overjoyed, I didn't think your ego would allow this." I teased with a grin.

He grumbled a bit, "It still doesn't allow some things."

"Maybe we could have a peace party?" I suggested.

"Maybe- where did the Predacons come from?" He asked.

"Oh, we raided Shockwave's lab-" Shockers poked his single optic around the bend, "Stole his Diary-"

"It's not called that!" He said and slumped over.

"Right, sorry, we stole Shockwave's logical diary-"

He nodded proudly, "Yup- Give it back."

I pulled it out of my subspace and handed it back, Meg seemed to be realizing how ridiculous his crew was. "Then we took some bones and followed the instructions on the datapad." I said.

"Why?" Meg asked.

"Ask him, he was lonely." I shrugged, and just as one problem was solved, another popped up.

Hey.... Egg started,

"Hold on, it's the Chicken." I told Meg. Yup.

So we're like lost, really lost, so lost that you'll have to cut open the walls to get us out. Egg said, trying to sound prideful.

"The chickens need to be cut out of the walls." I told Meg.

He rolled his optics, not questioning shit, "I'll get Soundwave on it." He said and headed off.

Soundwave is on it. I told her.

Cool. She said.

Shockwave was left with me, "Sooo" He started awkwardly, "Can I see the chicks?" He asked.

"If you don't do anything bad to them and Egg allows you-" I started, "Maybe." I shrugged.

"Anything I can do to get on her good side?" He asked.

I raised a ridge at him.

"I just-" He started, seeming to get more flustered. "Chickens are cute!" He blurted out in panic.

"Just bribe her with Uranium." I suggested and he headed off. I decided to take a stroll down to the only prisoner we had. "Hey." I greeted, he looked up from his cosy spot on the floor.

He beeped in anticipation.

"Treaty went well and the war is over, but they forgot to take you back." I explained.

His optics widened before they narrowed, "They forgot about me?" He asked in shock as I opened the cell, he stepped out.

"Yup, Maybe you can take this as an opportunity to befriend past enemies?" I suggested, he thought on it and nodded. "Who first?" I asked.

"Knockout, maybe we could have friendly race?" He suggested. And we headed off to the medbay, the door opened quietly and we saw a sight to behold. Bee let off a wolf whistle.

"Aren't you supposed to been a cell?" Knockout grumbled.

"There's peace." He noted.

He snorted as Breakdown edged next to me, "That won't stop me beating your aft." He shot back and noticed my toxic glare, "In a race." He added.

"Great! You know any spots?" Bee asked.

KO blinked, "To race?"

"Yea."

"Hell yeah, Breaky, wanna come?" He asked as he already dragged Bee out.

"Don't tell Optimus." I heard him say as they left.

I was left all alone, until a call broke the silence, I picked up.

"We forgot Bumblebee." Optimus sighed.

"Yeah, I know, I already fished him out and he's gone with Knockout to race somewhere." I explained.

He let off a disapproving 'hmm' before hanging up. Rude, he didn't even invite me over! I slouched through the hall ways until I came across Soundwave, he was wearing a party hat and had one plastered on his chassis, on Laserbeak.

"Are we having a party?" I asked.

"No, attempting to convince Megatron." He strung together and handed me a hat, I put it on.

"We should just organize one behind his back." I suggested.

"I already have, in the event he says yes." Soundwave informed.

"Off the Nemesis?" I asked.

"Why?"

"So the Autobots can come and I don't have to stay five meters away from Oppy." I said.

"I can find an island." He said and pushed a bunch of party hats into my servos, "Give to others." He requested and headed off.

Next thing Meg knew, everyone was wearing party hats.
