Oh crap I'm in some form of the Matrix. I didn't think my injuries were that bad, just a few caved in chest pieces here and there. Oh well I'll just while away the time in here until someone fixes me. I didn't turn invisible first right?

Whoa did I walk into a mess? Moody Autobots all round and pretty much everyone had an injury or three. Now if only my disruptor would start working properly...

Loving my new wheels. Carbon-fibre is one awesome substance, makes me feel light as a feather.
Found Grimlock and Ultra Magnus in a rather precarious predicament.
Further along the road.

Wonder how many Decepticons have made it to earth, I swear I've seen a couple of bright sparks in the atmosphere lately...

Finally at the base

Meeting Frenzy

Ah that was better, a nice run through the country and reverting into my native form. It felt good to be out of that stupid protoform, who ever came up with THAT idea...

It is nice to see a familiar face, I've been sticking to the shadows back on Cybertron for far too long. Though it is times like these I just wonder what happened to my friends from before the war. I'd probably not even recognise them, heck I don't even recognise myself sometimes.
