In Soviet Russia...[Firefly/Moonbeam]

[Windsong]

((December 23rd, 2027//Russian base//Time: 7:00 pm))

A comet streaked across the evening sky not far from a random military base in Russia. It was about 7 p.m. local time and the winds were gusting no higher than 16 knots. This was not in fact a typical comet, but another Autobot. From afar they were hard to tell apart, but for anyone that had seen any of the Autobots land before, that would be their initial guess now.

A disturbance arose on the Russian military frequencies as Windsong got closer. With a boom, he landed outside the recreational boundaries just by a few feet, landing in the trees bordering the far side of the property by a tug road and a supply shack.

He was here! Excited was the Seeker Autobot, but he had no idea where 'here' was! He'd have to find an alternate mode and orient himself ASAP! "I gotta find something that flies." Windsong muttered to himself as his optics and scanners came online. He began to move out and started to hum a very high frequency that most animals could barely hear and would be deaf to humans. The pitch was so high it might cause temporary static or glass to waver or crack occasionally, however. The frequency was useful though, it worked like sonar except above land. This allowed Windsong to extend his reach and feel further than he could see. When in new environments, this was helpful.

His Cybertronian alternate mode, which looked like a weird jet capable of slow hovering speeds, roamed over the military base, alerting soldiers as he went by. Some soldiers had their guns ready but they were ordered to hold their fire unless it, he, attacked.

It took him a while to find the alternate mode he wanted, as he didn't want to go to too far it. Some seemingly endless minutes later, he found the jets on the tarmac, and fell in love with the Sukhoi SU-37 Terminator. He scanned it and researched the maker, and immediately began learning about it history. Downloading the language, he surveyed the humans near the hangar and listened to their voices to get a fix on their accent so it matched with the language he was learning before taking off.

Once all this was achieved, he radioed the tower, received clearance, and took off without delay. The only thing that revealed he was an Autobot was the location of the Autobot symbol, one on his vertical stabilizer where the Russian flag would have been and one on his fuselage.

Soaring into the air, Windsong began to learn the somewhat disappointing limitations of human technology, but being Cybertronian, some of it was made up for. On the bright side, he was already quite comfortable in this new aircraft. It was lean, mean, agile, and had a great array of weaponry. As he got higher and farther away from other aircraft, Windsong immediately began practicing maneuvers - twists, turns, vertical mid-air stops to a slow airspeed, stalls, etc.

He couldn't hang around too much, though. The Seeker had to find Firefly and their other Trinemate. That was why he was here, after all, essentially it was the key reason why he was here.

[Moonbeam]

Moonbeam wasn't sure, quite yet, what to think of the Autobots. She was used to not being liked, so any animosity didn't bother her. No, she just wasn't sure what to think of this whole war, beyond the fact that she hated, loathed, and despised it. She probably would have continued along that same vein of thought, as it were, when she felt something tug at her across the Bond. She felt her spark lift and sing. //"Windsong?\\> she called out hesitantly across their Bond.

She could have sworn that the tug, that sense, was Windsong. It couldn't be their Creators, considering they were dead, and without a second thought, beyond calling out to Firefly, she began to head to where the source of the tug was coming from. Mozart was in a possibly forced recharge to keep some humans safe, but Moonbeam knew it would last.

Hopefully it would be after she found Windsong. She began to speed up and took off, taking the shortest, and safest, route to where the source was coming from....in Russia.

//"Windsong?"\\ she called out across their Bond again, not sure if she had gained a glitch from worrying about her Trine Leader or if this was truly Windsong she was sensing through their Bond.

Finally their Trine would be reunited.

Hopefully, together, they would be able to stand among the others as equals.

Well, except her.

Pacifists had no place in a war.

[Windsong]

//"Moonbeam!"\\ The mech replied enthusiastically with a dash of surprise in his tone. "You're here too! You must have arrived sometime after I did. I wasn't expecting to see you here."\\ At least they could look for Firefly together. Perhaps Moonbeam had already found her. //"Have you found her?"\\

((sorry its short))

[Moonbeam]

Moonbeam did a barrel roll in happiness and sped up, pushing her altmode to the limits as she raced towards Windsong...while obeying the flight rules and laws by not getting in the way of commercial flights and following the correct 'airways' to get to where the pull across the Bond was coming from. //"Windsong, I've been here for a few days. I crash landed in America. Firefly found me, but that's beside the point at this time. Oh, Windsong, I can't wait to see you! I have missed you so!"\\ she called back, not bother to hide her joy over finding Windsong, or Windsong finding her.

She really wasn't sure what to call this. She was careful as she raced through the skies, the Earth's beauty gleaming over her. //"What are your coordinates?"\\ she inquired, obviously happy and excited that he was there.

Their Trine was practically together again.

[Windsong]

//"I have recently left the Asian content. Apparently I landed in a place called Russia. I will provide you necessary airways to help intercept me from your current location. Our creation bond makes it easy."\\ Windsong promptly sent her his current coordinates with a loud "ping" over the comms and forwarded various data on Russia and the airways going in and out of it. //"Do not go too far over the coast unless you want to "ident" yourself and talk to Russian traffic centers - they are very picky about airspace and traffic routes here, I'm finding it to be a bit of an annoyance to get used to. I was already cleared to leave. Just let me know if you get cleared."\\ he advised, picking up his airspeed to the "red arc" limits.

[Moonbeam]

Moonbeam gave an internal nod and she looked over the information quickly. She shifted a bit and she nearly had to land to get over her shock. He was a bit far from her, but if she did a few adjustments, she would be perfectly fine. She began to adjust her flight patterns and she had to adjust everything in her flight to get to her brother. //"I was already on my way. I'll try to send it to Firefly. You know this is not exactly my strong suit,"\\ she answered as she continued to adjust her flight patterns so she wouldn't interfere too much with the flight patterns already set out.

//"And I agree about the flight patterns,"\\ she answered cheerfully.

She finally got her way along and tried to get the correct communication to Firefly. Yeah...she needed to work on that.

[Firefly]

Firefly had quickly discovered that flying on this planet was amongst the greatest things about being here, despite the risk of being killed and all that. As such, she tried to stay in the air as much as possible - though keeping her feet clean was a good part of it, too. However, what delayed her from inspecting the closing bond that was her brother was not the flying, avoidance of the ground, but another related topic - a bird had somehow gotten itself hit on her wing, and her disgust - and slight sorry - for the little creature had been something that she'd have much rather kept to herself. It was a bit embarrassing, after all.

As it was, she was flying on her back, in a sense, the poor creature nestled over her spark. It wouldn't do it any good - it was already dead, a quick, painless death, but she had to feel sorry for the poor thing. A gull, probably, what with the gliding wings and the large beak. With a sigh, she knew she had greater priorities than the death of this poor bird, and, with a smooth motion she flipped, dumping the bird to sea, and transformed.

It was at this point that she received fairly decent flight patterns from her sister, likely passed through from Windsong. Opening the triangle of communication as she swung into line with the suggested patterns, she spoke to both of them openly. //"Firefly en route. I apologize for the delay, I was... Dealing with some of the local wildlife.\\" There was trace remorse in the end of that phrase, but not enough to overwhelm the general tone of happiness. It was a balance, and came out fairly neutral. To Windsong himself, she sent a different message. //"Welcome to earth, Windsong! You have no idea how much I've missed you."\\

With a spin in the air, a corkscrew of sorts, she accelerated slightly. The chilly air was annoying, but the motion still felt nice.

[Windsong]

//"Thank you! I am relieved to hear your voice, Firefly! I'm glad both you and Moonbeam are here."\\ Windsong replied with cheer. //"I've been enjoying the sights as the scenery gets brighter. It's quite beautiful and intriguing."\\ he said to them, keeping the three way system going.

He was still pushing his limits to get to them, and in about an hour he would begin to see Moonbeam hopefully.

//"Are there Cybertronians here?"\\ he asked curiously.

[Moonbeam]

Moonbeam did a little roll, though it was quick and she was not the acrobat her siblings were. She internally smiled, though resisted the urge to send her sulk through the Bond. It was not fair to either of them that she was still trying to find her nitch in the Autobots. She was a Medic and a pacifist. She, instead, focused on her response. //"Yes, there are others. And yes, Earth is quite beautiful,"\\ she answered warmly and let out a little 'leap' of joy over the Bond upon seeing Windsong in the distance.

For once, she was glad that her altmode was rather speedy. She was internally smiling and fully enjoying racing towards her brother, but she had no doubt that here brother would be fine. That and she wasn't on a crash course, something she checked twice before she chose not to panic over the possibility of harming anyone, especially one of her Trine.

[Windsong]

//"Thankyou, Firefly! It's great to see you again!"\\ Windsong would have included Moonbeam in that statement as well were it not for the fact that they had basically traveled to Earth together. One just left a little sooner than the other. When the trio finally united, there was much rejoicing by a giant group hug before they initiated a tight formation and flew towards the Autobot base to check in. For Windsong, the first day arriving to Earth was a grand one - full of success, joy, and relief to be back with the Trine 100% together.
