Tales of the Crypt
The highest point of Autobot City is the communications tower; outside that tower, there's a catwalk for maintenance access to the antenna. Skyfire lands on that catwalk; from here, he can see the stars clearly, without the city lights interfering. The night is crisp and clear; the polar storm has passed away, leaving the stars as bright as ( Read more... ) -
To Rest on Denali
Though it's Skyfire who has the coordinates, it's Starscream who finds the battle site first. Every ridge that he struggled over, every river that he stumbled across on frozen ice is engraved in his mind. He knows where reality came apart and two beings that could not die struggled to the death ( Read more... ) -

Duty is heavier than a mountain.
High above Autobot City, Skyfire and Starscream stand, looking out at the countryside. Or rather, Skyfire does; Starscream is looking inward at something only he can see. They're taking a break from the reconstruction of "The Machine ( Read more... ) -
What is going on out there?
Starscream looked around at the tarmac of what passed for a starport on Zyra.
"Skyfire, this place is a dump! Cybertron looked better than this during the Great Shutdown! Are you sure they have any kind of long-range commo? Do they even have energon here?" The smaller jet waved his hands at the ramshackle sheet-metal buildings and weather-stained ( Read more... )
