Of Base Flora and Fauna
As he flew over the ocean, Skyfire contemplated the little 'errand' Starscream had asked him to undertake. One, Starscream had talked him out of Autobot City while Starscream stayed behind--after a lengthy conversation with the Autobot Security Chief. Ulterior motive, or happenstance? Either one was possible. Red Alert had never quite trusted Skyfire because of his connection to Starscream, and the former Decepticon Air Commander was certainly at the top of Red Alert's long list of "People NOT to be Trusted Anytime, Anywhere".
So why did Starscream want Skyfire out of the way? Hmmm. Starscream was much too cheerful for a 'conversation' with a (former) enemy security honcho, too. Hmmmmmm. How many pieces was Skyfire going to have to pick up when he got back?
Second, Skyfire thought as he circled over the coordinates he'd been given, Starscream had asked him to meet surreptiously someone who 'wasn't supposed to be there' at the Decepticon Base. And given him full access to Starscream's old facilities, possessions and records. Very hmmmmm.
Skyfire hoped he wasn't going to have to have words with Starscream again.
