Sam and Bumblebee watched the sky...It was their turn on guard watch..ever since Optimus Prime put out the call to other Autobots they waited patiently for others to arrive.
It has been 4 years since Megatron was defeated and with no sign of Decepticon activity..Prime had refocused his attention to getting back to Cybertron...
With help from Sector 7 the remaining Autobots from the first wave were able to stay incognito for the better part of the last 4 years.
Bumblebee hoped the second wave would be so lucky...
[glow=red,2,300]1 more hour Bumblebee...Do you think Ironhide is on his way to relieve us?[/glow] asked Sam..
[glow=yellow,2,300]He's probably stuck in traffic...Had I known traffic was this bad I would have gone back to Cybertron!![/glow]
[glow=red,2,300]Very funny Bumblebee...[/glow] Sam caught a bright gimpse in his eye.. [glow=red,2,300]BUMBLEBEE LOOK!!!![/glow] Sam pointed at the night sky..
[glow=yellow,2,300]The cavalry has arrived[/glow]
A few more comets came into view...Sam was full of anticipation...Bumblebee full of hope.
[glow=red,2,300]I'll call it in![/glow]
Sam started talking into his watch (courtesy of Sector 7)
[glow=red,2,300]Optimus...They're here! The Autobots they're here!!![/glow]
The calm but firm voice of Prime came back
[glow=blue,2,300]That's great news Sam...Ironhide should be there shortly..I will wait here at the base.[/glow]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Mod
OK crash close to the area..no humans should get a real good look at you...Find your way to Bumblebee...Sam will have something to give you...No one pick an Alt Mode yet..Sam will give your ALT mode that you described in your profile...look at my Streaker Post as an example.

Sunstreaker hit the ground hard...no skidding! His crater was so deep that he was having trouble getting into his protoform robot mode...Finally he was able to climb out of the crater..after a quick glanced he spotted a transformer walking towards him with a fleshling...
[glow=red,2,300]Bumbleebee is that you???[/glow]

One of the comets sperated it's path from the others and whizzed past over Sam and Bumblebee's head into a nearby cropfield, As it plummetted to the ground it dug deep into the earth, scorhing the the wheat and leaving a small trail of fire behind like a tail.
A low mound of Eath surrounded the pod where it had dug into the earth as slows parts of the outer-shall started to move and isolated themselves from the main whole, seprating until forming an exit as hot metal shifted and glistened in the night. A door war of light and steam shone out from the pod as a big metallic hand grabbed the edge of the exit and then another, then a head as it looked out and slowly emerged from the pod.
Bent over as it emerged the protoform slowly stood and surveyed his surroundings, nothing but field and wheat, a natural farm area nurtured by humans no less. Across in the distance the protoform saw the signal and bagan stomping towards it. Old levers and servers ached as they began to come to and function again, interacting moving, working, combining together in effort as the prtoform headed towards Sam and Bumblebee's location.

[glow=yellow,2,300]The one and only..Wow Sunstreaker you're looking ruff around the edges...[/glow]
Bumblebee looked at Sam to jump in..
[glow=red,2,300]I'm Sam Witwicky..a friend..Bumblebee has a schematic for a vehicle for you to scan and take it's form..Optimus says you like being shiny...this car will be perfect for you..[/glow] He looks at Bumblebee.. [glow=red,2,300]Can you generate the plans[/glow]
From Bumblebee's eyes a hologram appeared of a car..Sunstreaker quickly scanned it and took the form of a Ferrari Enzo..
No sooner then they had finished another Autobot landed and was heading for them...
Bumblee remarks...[glow=red,2,300]That's Hoist...I know that run anywhere!![/glow]

"Some men aren't looking for anything logical. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn."
In his research, Vanish had heard that quote somewhere. He didn't remember where, or by who, but he would find it. It wasn't important, but what was, was who it described- Megatron. A creature so devastating and destructive, that his only intent was setting the planet Earth on fire, and watching it burn itself to ashes. And it was for this reason that Optimus had summoned reinforcements.
The trip was long and tiring, but most informative. Fortunately, it had to come to an end sometime, and that time was now. The sleek black protoform rocketed through the atmosphere of the planet known as Earth, leaving only a trail of useless debris and a deafening boom in its wake. Vanish had picked up the exact coordinates of the beacon now, and as he zeroed in on the location, his sensors picked up some shocking information- sparks. And several of them. Had they're ground zero location been breeched? Were the Decepticons ambushing the backup as they reached the ground, never giving them a chance to roll out? It mattered not, it was not happening to this bot. Not without a fight.
The landscape was clear now, and while the other robot forms were undistinguishable at this speed, they were most certainly there. Vanish took note of a large Earth plant, a tree, and picked that for his landing zone.
As he boomed toward his landing, he readied himself for what might occur. Then, it happened. Impact.
The tree exploded into flames and burst into pieces, all of which disintegrated on impact. No crater, no protoform, no tree. Just a cloud of ash and smoke.

The protoform designated as Hoist broke from a stomp into a stride as he neared the assembled Autobots. Arriving at there location he noticed the small human next to Bumblebee but couldn't say he had an opinion on the earth-based carbon life forms one way or another, his concern was Optimus and the oncoming threat by the Decepticons that had summoned him to Earth.
The protoform saluleted the others rather casually, Reporting for duty!. And may i say, some of you look like you could use a maintenence check already.." the bot replied casually, resting his last glance on Sunstreaker. "Are we all here yet?"

Fenix's landing trajectory was a rough one, he came down the fastest out of the other pods landing him threw a small hill into a pond. As his pod cracked open Fenix stepped out of it and took a quick glance at his surrounding.
"Never gets old" he said to him self while shaking off the landing jitters
Switching to infrared vision and scanned his surroundings for the welcoming comity. Just a little more than a half mile away he picked up the heat sigs of what he thought were the already landed Auto bots. After crossing the field in less than a minute, he approached the group silently.
nearing them he said, "Fenix reporting!"

Mosquito landed with a crash and climbed out of the pod. Straightening, she looked around, then spotted the signal and approached. "Mosquito reporting for duty!"she said. The robot paused and looked curiously at the tiny human next to Bumblebee.

As more and more Autobots gathered, it was safe to say they were not under attack, and even if they were, it probably wouldn't be a fair fight for the bad guys this time out. Just the way it should be.
As the crowd gathered, it seemed that the empty crash site in the tree had been lost in the euphoria of other bots landing, and rightfully so. It was time to make his presence known.
"Well I'm glad to see everyone was real concerned on my well being." Boomed an accented English voice from behind the gathered crowd, opposite of where he had landed. Vanish finally revealed himself.
"Vanish reporting for duty, sir, though I'm ashamed to say I feel a bit naked without an alternate form."

Bumbleebee welcomed all of them...he explained that he didn't know who else was coming so there was no way of telling who else would arrive...Soon Sam reintroduced himself and Alt modes were handed out...they had over 100 alt modes ready not knowing what two expect..
Beforelong Prowl showed up and Ironhide pulled up right behind him...
The team was looking strong they talked amongst each other as they waited to see if anyone else would show up.

"Still impertinent Sunstreaker? It's not about looks but functionality! You might want to remember that when I'm endlessly bending your fenders all the back to normal - as usual!", there was a jovial tone to his voice but Hoist was never shy about putting any Autobot in his place.
Looking through the alt modes, Hoist found one he deemed ideal. Fixing others was his specialty and this would certainly help his comrades endured during the line of duty. With an intense stare his optics opened fully and two bright lights scanned the composite plan of the vehicle mode. An electrical field ran over the entire of Hoist's body, glowing alive with a shade of vibrant blue. After the change nothing had seemed changed and wouldn't till he transformed back.
Gears and motors moved as they had before when crossing the wheat field only this time forming together to form solid parts, armour and a shiny new body, hidden wheels came down as he took on a more Earthen vehicle form with windows and brake lines culminating together into a modern tow truck. With a few revs of his engine, Hoist was happy everything was in working order and transformed back.
Like his new alternate mode to disguise himself among the humans and their Earth vehicles, Hoist was now a very dark shade of green, when he transformed back, his new robotic mode look was very different indeed to his protoform seconds ago.

A smaller comet entered Earth's atmosphere.
While not paying attention to the flightpath, Flywheel's protoform's comet alt mode had hit an asteroid, causing some damage and sparking.
Luckily it hadn't damaged his nav system much.
He honed in on the coordinates and began his decent.
The small comet slammed into the earth near the gathering, sparking. It came to a halt and continued sparking sporradically.
The comet sparked again as it transformed.
"Oh, my head..." said the newly arrived autobot, voice unusually scratchy.
He finished transforming and looked around for the group.
His shoulder sparked and he put a hand over it.
He was considerably shorter and squatter then the others, and almost looked evil.
"Flywheel *spark* erk, ... reporting.... Hit something on the way here..." he trailed off as he approached them.

As he reached for the list of alternate modes, Vanish was interrupted by another arrival. Flywheel seemed to have had quite a rough journey, and was in dire need of some medical attention. His voice trailed off, and as he was the closest, Vanish stepped in to offer his assitance. Extending his arm to offer his assistance, Vanish was considerably taller than the smaller Flywheel, but it mattered not. A friend was in need. "Glad to see you made it alive, my friend. We'll get you looking good as new. Between Hoist and Ratchet, you'll be better than ever, I promise you that."----------- OOC: Sorry if you think I'm god-modding here, but I thought it would be a bit strange if everyone just continued to scan alternate modes while one of our own stood injured. You have my permission to allow Vanish to help you walk wherever, to Hoist, to Ratchet, to the little boy's room, I don't care. Just not off a cliff...

Chuckling at the comments Hoist gave to Sunstreaker, Fenix choose from an extensive list of Alt Modes and came across one that suited him.
"A Firebird eh," Fenix mussed while scanning it, "this will suit me well."
After the scan molded the cars color pattern to his armored body he stood there waiting for his next orders.
