(Y/N) sat perched atop an orange coloured rock, meticulously sharpening her sword with practiced precision. The glint of steel caught the sunlight as she worked, each stroke of the whetstone honing the blade to a razor-sharp edge. Beside her, Miko and Jack lounged on the ground below, their voices carrying on the breeze.

"Whoa!" Miko exclaimed, her eyes widening as she peered into the vast cave stretching out before them, while the two bots and Jack conversed.
"Doesn't make sense," Arcee mentioned, her voice tinged with confusion in conversation with the bulky autobot.
"This operation has been abandoned four, maybe five years," she then stated, her tone grave. "And Decepticons never leave Energon behind," Bulkhead finished, his expression darkening at the implications.
"Uh, guys?" Jack said, drawing their attention, and (Y/N) looked up from sharpening her massive sword, her attention piqued by the sudden change in atmosphere.
