-Autobots have Short term Memory-

 

The story of Skids.

 

"Autobots! Transform and roll out!" shouted a familuar voice. The entire team of robots shifted their gears and transformed to their car

 

modes, and sped off without a second thought.

 

A lone autobot came walking out of the ark, holding in his hands the hot energon Optimus Prime asked him to grab for him. His name was

 

Skids.

 

"Hey Prime I brought you your --- " started the autobot looking around confused.

"You're too late, Megatron attacked some electrical plant.." said a voice from beneath Skid's eye sight. He turned down to see a human

 

wearing a yellow hard hat.

"And you didn't tell them to wait for me?" asked Skids.

"Well.. I would of, but .. I have no idea who the hell you are." said Spike.

Skids sighed heavily.

"Which Electrical Plant did they go to..?" muttered Skids under his breathe.

"The one outside of town." said Spike.

Skids ran back inside the Ark, and set the hot energon down.. then quickly transformed into his car form. He wasted no time trying to

 

catch up to the team, eating their dust all the way to the scene of battle.

 

Skids arrived on a cliff side, over looking the battle. It was midpoint, and it seemed like his friends were in the heat of battle. Skids decided

 

to keep the element of surprize with him, and hid behind a large boulder while he armed himself for battle. He saw Wheeljack fall under

 

heavy fire from Thundercracker and quickly provided back up. Thundercracker took damage and retreated, as Skids came slidding down

 

the cliffside guns full blazing. He got to Wheeljack and helped him up.

 

"Wow thanks pal.." said Wheeljack.

"Hey no prob bro, just helpin a fellow bot." said Skids.

"Do I know you?" asked Wheeljack.

"Yes! It's me! Skids! We play bingo together every thrusday!" said Skids.

"Skids.. Skids.. no sorry, I don't remember ya pal.." said Wheeljack.

Frustrated, Skids remarked "Seems to be the norm these days.."

Wheeljack ran off to rejoin the battle. Skids just stood their sulking when he over heard Soundwave near by.

 

"Eject.. Rumble.. Operation, Rockslide!" said the gigantic tapedeck robot.

A Tape shot out of his chest and transformed into Rumble.

"Alright, so it's show time boss?" asked Rumble

"Correct. Megatron's orders. Bury the Autobots in a rockslide." said Soundwave.

"Sweet this will be a peice of cake!" said Rumble climbing the side of a cliff.

 

*Crap! It's a trap! I gotta stop this!* thought Skids, running to warn Optimus.

 

Faster than he ever ran in his life, Skids dashed through the no man's land, dodging friendly fire and enemy bullets. He eventually passed

 

a group of minibots hidding in a trench.

"Who the hell is that!!" shouted Brawn.

"BAAAaaamm! Thats what I'd like to know, PPOooooOOoooWWWwww!" replied Warpath.

"HEY! YOU GET OUTTA THE WAY!!" shouted Brawn.

"I NEED TO FIND OPTIMUS! WHERE IS HE?!" called Skids.

"Who wants to know!?" asked Brawn.

"He's a Decepticon! SHOOT HIM!!" shouted Cliffjumper.

Brawn turned to look at Cliffjumper. ".... meh ..".

Brawn and Cliffjumper opened fire on Skids, who took off double time.

 

Skids rounded the Electrical Plant and found Optimus and Megatron in the midst of battle.

"You can't win this time Megatron!" shouted Optimus.

"I don't intend to, Prime.. hahahaaa!" replied Megs.

Skids went running to Optimus. "SIR!! It's a trap!!"

"Y.. you found out?" said Megatron all bewildered.

Prime socked Megs in the face and then turned to Skids.

"Why should I take your word?" asked Optimus.

"GOD DAMNIT OPTIMUS!! It's me, Skids! Remember the Cybertonian Basketball team? Remember the garage band we started?

 

Remember.. I went to the Cyberprom with your sister!" said Skids.

"What are you talking about?" asked Optimus.

Megatron came to his senses and armed his cannon. "NOW YOU DIE PRIME!!"

Skids ran and pushed Optimus aside, and he took full force of Megatrons fusion cannon, critically damaged. At that time, Rumble's pile

 

drivers went off, and a giant rockslide began.

"Time for me to go Prime.. it saddens me that I won't be able to watch all your forces being crushed to scrap by my ingenious rockslide..

 

but I have other places to be.. mwahahahahaah!!!" Megatron took to the air, followed by the rest of the decepticons.

"It's a trap! Autobots, retreat!" shouted Prime.

 

Prime ran right past Skids, and didn't even look back. *freakin no good son of a--* thought Skids struggling to his feet. He came back

 

around the Electrical Plant, only to see thousands of boulders rolling straight for the plant. There was no sign of another autobot for

 

miles. *So it's up to me to protect this plant then..* thought Skids.

 

Using 1337 marksman skillz, Skids was able to spare the main building and himself from total disaster. Tired, worn out and damaged

 

beyond transformation ability, Skids limped his way back to the Ark. When he came home, everyone seemed to be in a festive mood..

 

could they finally of seen their ally's true potential? It filled Skids spark with much hope. He approached Bumblebee.

 

"Is this party for me?" asked Skids.

"You? Hell no, I don't even know who you are. This party is for us! We saved the Electric Plant from a rockslide." said Bumblebee "I

 

didn't even see you there.. did you partake?"

"Are you BLIND!" shouted Skids, lifting Bumblebee up off the ground. "I saved Wheeljack from getting slagged.. I ran straight through

 

the heat of battle to warn Optimus about the rockslide.. I TOOK A FREAKIN BULLET FOR THE GUY.. You guys all leave like a bunch of

 

Pretenders, leaving me behind to save the plant single handedly.. and because I was too damaged to transform, I limped myself home.. THEN

 

YOU TAKE ALL THE CREDIT!"

"You there.. who are you.." asked Optimus, interupting with his arms crossed.

"It's.. It's me sir.. Skids.. I took Megatron's bullet for you eariler today.."said Skids.

"Skids... hmm.. Do we have a Skids who works here, Ironhide?" called Optimus.

"I dunno Prime.. never heard of him.." called Ironhide.

"Hmm.. well Skids.. just because I'm such a nice guy I'm gonna have Ratchet fix you up.. No no, no need to thank me or anything... oh by

 

the way, my energon is cold.. could you be a sport and re-heat it for me? k thnx.."

Skids put down Bumblebee and quietly shuffled to Prime's energon mug and went to the kitchen. He tried his best to forget what

 

happened and continue on.. *It must be some kind of mistake...* he thought. *Prime and the others are very busy guys and all..*

He came out of the kitchen only to find that all of his friends had left again on another mission.

 

"GOD DAMNIT!!!!!!!!" shouted Skids.
