Laughing Starscream lifted the mini-con in his hand as he brought it to his face to inspect his prize.
The mini-con was mostly red with a black chest. He couldn't tell what it would transform into though; it was different from the other mini-cons.
It was strong though, even by mini-cons. He could feel the strength it was exerting to try and break his grip. It was impressive; he knew he had found something special. Maybe this mini-con had more power than the Star Sabre or the Sky Boom Shield!
Smirking he looked at the mini-con “Now go on scan my beautiful image, give me what I deserve! Then we will rule the skies!” he cried in triumph.
Suddenly a sharp pain lanced his arm as he cried out in pain, dropping the mini-con.
“Not while I'm around Decepticon!” Announced Jetfire as he levelled his plasma blaster at Starscream. Now the mini-con was out of his grasp he could get down to business and show him why he was second in command of the Autobots!
“Arugh! Damn you Autobot!” Screeched Starscream, watching the mini-con flee into the hanger. Still all he had to do was defeat this Autobot and then the mini-con would be all his. “Now you’re in trouble. Null laser cannon fire!”
Quickly jumping back to avoid the fire Jetfire snapped of a few return shots stitching the air with fire, as he covered the mini-con’s escape. Now I just have to try and get to it before any Decepticons can.
Before he could move to a better position the area surrounding him erupted in fire as another Decepticon plane fired upon him. “Mwahahaha! You have no where to run now. The last time you foiled my plans. But now I shall pay you back for your meddling!” Laughed Thrust as he flew over Jetfire.
Quickly taking advantage of the distraction Thrust provided Starscream moved for the hanger. The other Autobot’s had arrived and were currently keeping the other Decepticons buys, except for Megatron. He had to hurry or else Megatron would get another mini-con.
“Oh yea? Outta my way!” cried Jetfire as he took to the skies to get the drop on Starscream, only for Thrust to cut him off. Delaying him long enough that even someone as good as he was couldn’t prevent Starscream from getting the mini-con.
Chuckling to him self at the chance thrust had given him Starscream ripped off the roof to the hanger. He wasn’t going to let anything stop him from getting the power of the mini-con now!
Starscream blinked, there appeared to be a strange red jet powered up and ready for take off. In its cockpit was the mini-con.
He could almost see the smirk on the mini-con’s face as the jet took off ploughing straight through him at a speed no human craft could have reached in the time given.
Screaming in rage Starscream turned to the escaping mini-con. That was it no more playing nice. Transforming into jet mode Starscream roared in pursuit. He was going to show the mini-con why he ruled the sky.

Ranma bent over as she breathed in deeply. Normally she would have broken from what just happened but that robot had seriously scared her. It had been worse than being in the same room as a cat!
Catching her breath Ranma looked up to see just what she had come for. Right before her was a red jet fighter. While Ranma didn’t know much about jets it didn’t look like anything she had seen before.
For starters the cockpit was near the middle of the craft. The back of the jet seemed rather large and rose above the cockpit. Still right now it was her only way out. As such she started to climb up to the cockpit; hopefully she could use it to get away. It had been a bad idea to come here in the first place.
Reaching the top of the jet Ranma looked for a way to open the cockpit when it suddenly opened by itself revealing the controls. Ranma found there was enough space for her to fit in even with the extra bulk her transformation gave her.
Moving into the cockpit she found it nostalgic, almost as if she had been in it before. Trusting on her feelings Ranma allowed her hands to move of their own accord as they ghosted over the controls as the jet came to life.
As she was trying to workout what she was doing the roof of the hanger was ripped open by the robot from before. Realising she had ran out of time to learn what her hands apparently knew she grinned as she accelerated straight at the robot blasting him off his feet.
As she blasted through the sky Ranma could help but scream in joy as she felt the rush and exhilaration of the takeoff. Quickly blasting through the clouds she felt something come at her as her hands wretched the joystick hard as she banked as a beam of energy flew past missing my scant inches.
Looking over her shoulder she saw a red and white jet blast through the opening in the clouds the blast had created. Somehow she could hear it laugh in the same voice the robot had used.
Quickly loosening up the throttle she went into a steep climb as she noticed the other jet following. Quickly killing the throttle she tried to slowdown letting it overshoot her. But it had clearly seen through her strategy as it moved in a way which lined her up with its weapons, it was obvious she was trapped.
With nothing left to do she decided to at least try what she had seen in the booklet as she yelled desperately “Masterforce!” Almost instantly the cockpit opened up as she felt her body moving on it’s own as she leapt out of the jet.
Still trusting her own movements she continued yelling “God-on!” as she felt her body start to move in a way she knew it shouldn’t as her vision blacked out. When it returned she saw a beam of energy above her as she fell towards the ground.
Landing in a crouch she felt the impact seemed far too light for such a fall when she saw the airport, it was tiny!
“Identify yourself.” Growled out Starscream, feeling an annoying sense of déjà vu.
“Ranma. And you’re going to pay for what you’ve done!” Growled out the obviously female Transformer as she moved into a martial arts stance.
Well check out the chassis on that girl. I hope she’s on our side. Thought Jetfire as he glanced over momentarily taking his eyes off thrust. He could spare a couple of seconds anyway; Thrust was a match for him.
