Ratchet said hello to Paraphus but didn't take his optics off Swift. 'Greetings Paraphus. Now Swift, please try and stay still. I can't work while your fidgeting about!'
Warpath finally spoke up. 'Awww don't mind the old timer here, he's just mad up cause can't keep up with young revs like us!'
'That does it! I've had about enough of all this!' Yelled Ironhide, but before anything else was said, Optimus Prime finally spoke up. 'Enough Ironhide. While the Raiders have set aside their own personal safety from time to time, they did it to perverse the Ark.'
Max Convoy nodded to Optimus Prime. 'Thank you commander. I trust you received my signal beacon? I activated it when we had positive contact of the target.' Max Convoy was referring to signal he had sent out to Autobot command when the Decepticons arrived.
'Indeed.' Began Optimus. 'We hurried as fast as we could. Good thing you were able to handle things on your own.'
'With all due respect Prime, course we did! Its not like we ain't professionals.' Powerplay interjected.
'Indeed Powerplay. However don't disregard Ironhide's wisdom. While we must stop the Decepticons, we must also preserve what is left of Cybertron. Autobots and the hundreds left behind that our intergalactic ships could not take to the stars.'

Retroblazer had been getting into his stride when Optimus Prime had rolled up. Seeing that Paraphus had shrunk off, he simply stood by his comrades and saluted as Prime went past. Hearing Ironhide arguing with Quickshot and Torque, he decided to say nothing- after all, it was his job to try and stop as many of his friends dying as possible. He simply folded his arms and waited for orders, giving the dirtiest look that is possible when you have no movable features in your face to his comrades talking of heroism and sacrifice. When Optimus joined the argument, however, he deemed it okay to contribute. "You're no good to anyone dead, Torque. And I don't spend my battles backing you up just so you can go of and sacrifice yourself for the greater good."

Valkyrie flew back to the Raiders.
The seekers she had been leading away proved most stubborn. The first was destroyed by being impaled with a piece of shrapnel from the cannon, and the other... was the more stubborn one.
She transformed and landed next to her Field Commander Max Convoy.
"My apologies, Commander... those two were... being difficult." she said, with a hint of annoyance.
Then she realized the company they were in and turned to face them.
"Pardon my manners, Commander Prime, Sir. I am Valkyrie, Aerial Recon Specialist. It is an honor to finally meet you, Sir." She said, with a slight bow.
And with Prime's officers around, she was waiting for the comment on the fact that she looked like a Decepticon.

While Warpath and Ironhide gave Valkyrie a odd look, Optimus nodded to the female Aerialbot. 'The honour is mine Valkyrie. Now then, Max Convey. Take your Raiders and head back to base. You and your team have earned some rest. Get repaired and be ready to head out again after your team has re-energized themselves.'
Max Convoy nodded. 'Yes Commander. You heard him Raiders! Transform and move out!'
The Raiders all reverted to their alternate forms and headed back to base while Optimus Prime instructed his troops to secure the area and set up a guard post.
While many of the Raiders wanted to get back into the action as fast as possible, what they didn't know was that they would need all the repair work and energon they could take. For soon they would be faced with a new threat bigger then anything they had faced before.
