MISSING

By Star Ruby.
I dedicate this story to my friends Phoenix and Razormoon. Please enjoy!

Early one morning Megatron and his Decepticon army head to Earth using the newly restored and more powerful spacebridge. Megatron figures that he can get away with stealing Earth's resources again. This is the Decepticon femmes first journey to Earth. The spacebridge opens and the Decepticons depart it. They are near their new Decepticon base.

Razormoon , Star Ruby and their sisters are stunned by the beauty of the planet. They see things more differently than their male counterparts.

"Decepticons lets make some energon; I am certain that the Autobots will not Spoil our fun. Soundwave locate a suitable location for our raid." "Megatron, there is a power station ten kilometres away." "Excellent Soundwave; you never disappoint me."

The Decepticons have no problem locating the power station. Megatron grins wickedly because the power station is huge. "Decepticons begin filling energon cubes." "Star Diamond and Star Emerald keep a close watch for the Autobots; warn me when you see them coming" "As you command Megatron" responds Star Emerald. Star Diamond winks at Megatron. Megatron knows Star Diamond well enough to know that she obeyed him. Star Ruby is nervous because Earth is a very strange place. She cannot help but worry about her sisters. "Star Emerald and Star Diamond be careful you do not know enough about this planet to be reckless." "You worry to much Ruby, Diamond and I will be alright." Star Ruby sighs because her sisters are very brave.

Teletran-three detects Decepticons on Earth "Alert, Alert, Decepticon activity sighted at a power station forty kilometres from here." Ultra-Magnus has to groan, "not again! Why doesn't Megatron ever give up? He is becoming really annoying. Autobots you heard Teletran-Three; Autobots transform and roll out." Silverbolt shouts, Aerialbots transform and fly out."

Star Emerald squeals because she notices an Autobot convoy heading in the direction of the power station. "Megatron come in please." "What is it Star Emerald?" " I spotted the Autobots, they are heading to the power station you are at." "Return back here at once." "As you command Megatron. Star Diamond we have to return to the power station." The two Aerial sisters turn around and head back to the power station.

The Aerialbots spot a couple of Decepticon planes heading in the direction of the power station. Star Emerald decides to teleport back to the rendevous site. Star Diamond panicks because her sister left her behind. She senses Autobots in the area. She panicks when she spots the Aerialbots because she recognises the Autobot symbols on the planes. Slingshot the hot head he is shoots at her. He mistakens her for Thundercracker because Star Diamond is a seeker jet like her brother. Star Diamond tries to get away but she gets shot down. "Yahoo! I shot Thundecracker down Silverbolt." "Fine shooting Slingshot, the Protectobots will arrest him."

Megatron is relieved to see Star Emerald back. He frowns when he notices Star Diamond missing. "Star Emerald, where is your sister?" "She is on her way back Megatron. I teleported here to arrive much quicker. Star Diamond should be here any minute now." "Very well, join your sisters. I am going to need Death Crystal when the Autobots arrive." "As you wish Megatron."

The Protectobots are surprised to find a Decepticon femme. First Aid the gentle soul he is, takes Star Diamond to Autobot base. He will repair her since he has a soft spot for femmes.

The Autobot convoy arrives. Megatron sneers at the Autobots. "Aerialcons merge and become Death Crystal." "Megatron we cannot form Death Crystal without Star Diamond; she never returned." "WHAT!" yells Megatron. Star Ruby shudders because Megatron is angry at her. "Aerialcons we do not deserve this, retreat." Megatron is surprised by Star Ruby's command. The Aerialcons obey their leader. "Where do you think you are going Star Ruby? I order you and your team to return at once." "Sorry Megatron, I already lost one sister today I do not want to lose the others. I hope you will forgive me. Goodbye Meggy my love."

Megatron snorts over Star Ruby's decision. How could she abandon him when he needs her the most. "Fine, Retreat! I'll deal with you later, Star Ruby."

Star Ruby has no problem locating the Decepticons new base. Star Ruby rushes to her quarters to be left alone. She needs time to grieve over the loss of Star Diamond. Star Ruby weeps because her beloved Meggy is angry with her.

Megatron watches his troops battle the Autobots. Razormars gets shot down by Springer. This alarms Megatron because the Decepticon femmes are rare. "Razormoon return to base with your sisters. I do not want to lose another femme." "As you command *MEGS*. Sabrejupiter carry our wounded sister and follow me. Razorteam follow me." Megatron relaxes the minute the ladies are gone.

Megatron vents his anger at the Autobots. He blows up a few electrical towers to get even with the Autobots for harming one of his femmes. Ultra-Magnus realises that Megatron has an advantage over the Autobots. At the present time there are more Decepticons than Autobots. He gathers his wounded friends. He transforms into a car carrier, to cart the wounded Autobots home. "You win this one Megatron, by Primus you shall pay dearly for what you done to my friends. Autobots Retreat."

Megatron laughs hard because it is nice to see the Autobots retreat for a change. "Decepticons we have enough fuel to last for months; return to base immediately." The Decepticons obey their leader. They return to base carrying the energon cubes they made.

Megatron is relieved to see the Star sisters safe and sound. He worries because Star Ruby is not with her sisters. He spots Razormoon and her sisters safe. "Hey ladies, do you know where Star Ruby is?" Razormoon answers him, "Megatron, Star Ruby is in her quarters.

Megatron is not mad at Star Ruby anymore. He knows that she was right and he was wrong for yelling at her. He heads to her quarters. Megatron can hear Star Ruby sobbing hard. He cautiously enters her chamber. Megatron notices his lady love crying hard on her bed. Megatron puts his arm on Star Ruby's back and rubs it. Star Ruby thinks that it is her best friend Razormoon. Star Ruby gasps with surprise because it is Meggy who is comforting her, not Razormoon. "Star Ruby why are you so upset. I understand exactly why you left earlier. I am sorry for yelling at you earlier while we were at the power station. Will you forgive this fool." Star Ruby tries to talk but breaks down sobbing again. She sits up and leans her head against Megatron's chest. Star Ruby continues to weep. Megatron is at a lost for words. He wants to help his beloved but is unsure how to. Megatron sends Soundwave a private message, "Soundwave, please come to Star Ruby's chamber there is something wrong with her."

Soundwave enters Star Ruby's room. He touches her head. Star Ruby is sound asleep because whe wore herself crying. She fell asleep leaning against Megatron. "Soundwave, what is wrong with my beloved?" Soundwave is the only Decepticon that knows about Megatron and Star Ruby's love life. "Megatron, Star Ruby burned herself out again. She was not fully recovered when she resumed her role as leader of the Decepticon femmes. Bloodstone also blamed her for Star Diamond's disappearance. I feel that Star Ruby will never recover, unless you order her to stop leading. Megatron I have an idea. Razormoon is more experienced a leader than Star Ruby, why not consider her as Star Ruby's replacement. Razormoon has proved to all of us that she has commanding potential. Star Ruby would appreciate that." "Soundwave I will retire Star Ruby from leading, until I am certain she is fully recovered. I want you to do therapy with her each day. You are to give me a report everyday. When you are certain that she is well enough to lead, please let me know so I can give her back her title." "As you command Megatron."

Soundwave leaves Star Ruby's room. Megatron lays Star Ruby down on her bed and covers her with a blanket. "Goodnight my love, and sleep well. I will visit you in the morning." Megatron kisses his mate on her forehead. The Decepticon femme sighs in her sleep. Megatron leaves her room to find Razormoon.

Meanwhile, at the Autobot base, First Aid is working overtime to save Star Diamond. He never knew that Decepticon femmes existed. He has to admit that Star Diamond is attractive. First Aid sighs with relief when he stops Diamond's internal bleeding. He makes a startling discovery; Star Diamond has no vocal chip in her. He corrects that flaw by installing the best one available for femmes.

Springer charges into First Aids office. "First Aid, you traitor ! Stop repairs on this femme at once; she is our enemy, I feel that she does not deserve our help because she's a Decepticon." "Springer, I am repairing her anyways. She is hurt and I am fixing her; that is why I am a doctor. If you have a problem speak to our leader about." "Fine! I will report this treason First Aid.

"You will do nothing of the sort Springer. I asked First Aid to repair Star Diamond." "Why, AlitaOne? Are you a traitor too?" "Back off Springer or else you will have to deal with me too." "Arcee, you are in on this also?" "Yes I am Springer. If you even lay one hand on Star Diamond, we are through." "Arcee, that's not fair." Phoenix enters the room as well as the other femmes. "Hello Springer, are you giving us a hard time? We should have you know that we know the Decepticon femmes. They helped us do energon raids during the war. Our motto back then was {united we stand, together we fall.} Springer knows that he is outnumbered by the entire Autobot femme force. He snort and leaves First Aids office.

AlitaOne speaks for all of the femmes, "First Aid how is our friend?" "I have great news ladies, Star Diamond is going to be alright. I improved her by giving her a vocal chip. She will finally be able to speak to you ladies. I just have to wake her up." First Aid gives Star Diamond a energy boost. Star Diamonds optics go on. She panicks because she is at Autobot base. "Whoa, please relax. I will not harm you because I am a doctor and a pacifist." Star Diamond relaxes because she can sense that First Aid speaks the truth. "There are a bunch of ladies that want to see you." "Hello, Star Diamond welcome to Autobot base." Star Ruby blinks at AlitaOne. "You are free to return to Decepticon base. We made it quite clear to the male Autobots, to leave you alone. Right ladies?" The ladies shout "RIGHT commander AlitaOne." Star Diamond smiles at her friends. "Star Diamond you have a vocal chip now. You will be able to talk to your sisters and boyfriend's if you have any." Star Diamond blushes at her friends. She tries out her vocal chip. "Thanks everyone of you. I will always be your friend. Maybe one day we will be able to see each other." The ladies clap their hands. Phoenix responds, "spoken like a true femme."

"I was spying on the Decepticons they really care for you. Your sister, Star Ruby is crushed over your mysterious disappearance." "Thankyou Phoenix for the news." "Aw shucks, it was nothing. Do you want me to give you a lift home?" "Thanks for the offer Phoenix, but I want to fly." The Autobot femmes watch their Decepticon femme fly away.

Star Diamond has no problem locating Decepticon base. She notices Megatron and Star Ruby gazing up at the starry night. Star Diamond grins. She decides to drop in on her friends. "Hi, Megatron and Star Ruby. Nice night for a flight." Megatron and Star Ruby are happy to see Star Diamond alive. "Star Diamond, I never knew you could talk." replies Megatron. "I couldn't before because I lacked a vocal chip. An Autobot named First Aid saved my life and gave me a voice." Megatron is shocked by that revelation. An Autobot actually showed compassion to a Decepticon. "Wecome home Star Diamond."

Star Diamond manages to locate Razormoon and her clan. "Hi, Razormoon, Sabrejupiter, Razormars, Sabresaturn and Razormercury. I am back safe and sound. Megatron told me that you are my commander Razormoon." "Thankyou for agreeing to lead in my sister's place. I can sense how worn out she is. Well goodnight my friends." Razormoon *GRINS* "Welcome home Star Diamond. I will try my hardest to be as good a leader like Star Ruby was."

Star Ruby stops by Star Diamond's room. "Star Diamond, I am relieved to see you back safe. I am glad you're back. Welcome home sister."
