On the shore of the island lay a blue mech wearing a rather large straw hat and sunglasses. Where and how he got them nobody knows. He was using a large piece of metal from a scrap-yard as a makeshift beach chair. Riptide reclined back in it as music played from a boombox next to him. He had also found the boombox in the scrap-yard and had repaired and upgraded it. It could now download any song wirelessly and play it. The song playing was "Escape" by Rupert Holmes. Riptide sighed and smiled, tipping the hat down over his optics and slipping down further into the metal chair.

By this time, the engineers and miners had finished upgrading Aries Fist energon efficiency, along with it's ground bridge control. It's wing dagae was fully healed as well, and the engineers and miners had given the vessel some more energon to process and save in it's reserves. Aries Fist was almost complete, and all it needed was a clean up job on the outside, and some clean up time on the outside. It was almost in mint condition within it's inner workings, and the engineers who had originally tagged along on their commander's seemingly crazy mission were beginning to see the fruits of his small scheme to take the ship quickly.
The engineers continued their work, seeing that there was another Autobot signature only ensured that the place was more secure, and they dared not bother Stormgear and Skyspray--they simply were too occupied with their own matters. The protectobot guards in the area, numbering to about four, oversaw what their brothers did.
"Say---you know that crazy vehicon guy? How he wanted these chaps to land in Elba?" One guard asked the other, who stood next to him. In response, the other mech shrugged, and gripped his weapon. "Well, yeah." Came the steady reply, and the first guard cocked his helm as he proceeded casually.
"So, I think this vehicon fellow wanted to have these people land on the other Elba. You know, the one which is far off the coast of west Africa, and has like, no human population, is a better hiding place, and pretty much a decent spot to conceal a behemoth classed frigate like this. What do you think?" The first guard asked, and the second one nodded in return.
"You know what? I think you're right. I mean, this one is more populated, has more tourists, and has a better chance of being spotted. Honestly, I think that there might've been some lack of communication here. Meh. Assumptions these days huh buddy? I guess detailed orders are important."

Found it!
He bent down and pushed a couple of boxes away from the one that they needed. L62Z. He didn't want to pull it away in case he would pull out some wires, which wasn't anything good. Instead, he sat down next to it and made room for Stormgear, should she come over.

A few beeps filled Stormgear's comm, which was followed by a coded message.
Incapacitated, Bounty Hunter Ship in Proximity. Shockwave's Request.
'bout time. Stormgear turned her helm and smiled. "I have a small pickup job I have to do." Stormgear stated. "Catcha' in a bit. Don't get in trouble.." With that, the small femme portaled off.

The Aries Fist was fully functional, and once again ready for take off, with full energon reserves, and all it needed was a proper cue for take-off. The protectobots that were no guarding it numbered about twenty, all in a small perimeter. The ship was cloaked to normal vision, and within it roughly fifty bots managed the vessel, keeping it in tip top shape, and finishing the cleaning job. It had been a few weeks since it had landed, and the cruiser was in a superb condition.
"All awaiting commands from the A19 Strike team." A protectobot guard muttered, and another nodded. More energon was being harvested so that the ship could be supplied with plenty of fuel, and the last of the vein they had found was running out. The soldiers were pleased to know that their mission was running smoothly, since the behemoth classed ship had not been taken, but now was in Autobot servos. They felt a little more confident in their cause, now that they had a ship, ready for dispensing. It's weapon systems were ready, it's little tools for combat was ready--everything was prepared for it's departure.
The ship had not only been shielded by a cloak, but actually a shield as well, just incase.

And he was left alone again. Nothing that he really favored but knew that it had its uses. He vented a little as he got to work on the box alone, something that he found both fun and at the same time not. He would much rather be in a battle or maybe building a new gun but that would be another time. Right now he had to focus on his task of upgrading or maybe fixing the intel device or whatever the thing he was working on actually was. A small wielder was soon in his servo and the box was on its way to being repaired. He hummed a little as he worked and tried to think about other things, like big guns or other weapons.
After a while he stopped his work as the machine now was fully functional. He got back up on his pedes, immediately got his chainguns stuck in a wire and fell, dragging a couple of boxes down on him. He cursed and pushed them off of him as he went out the room. He had just remembered that a signal had been sent before and now he picked it up again. He had been told to stay out of trouble but sometimes he just had to do what he felt was fun even if it involved him getting into trouble. He sent a comm to those currently in the same place as him and then opened a groundbridge.
:: I would appreciate if you cleaned up in the intel room. A thing happened that we should not talk about but I'm sure you don't have anything against cleaning it up. And don't look at anyhting confidential, I will find out... Have a nice day. ::
With that he entered the groundbridge and the green vortex closed behind him.

After doing as they were told, the Protectobots received another com message:
'This is your current commanding officer, Taggon. I would like to instruct you to commence warping in all the energon you have taken to the Autobot base. After wards, com-link me and then send me a bridge on my command.'
The message was received, and the protectobots did as they had been told, under the high security, they were easily able to work quickly, as their numbers were quite large. Ebergon was warped into the base of the Autobots via ground bridges within the ship's hangers, where the excess energon meant for the Autobot base was stored. Thusly, the Autobots were supplied with fuel.

A GB opened nearby with two mechs coming through the Decepticon bridge. One was a smaller green mech, in a sort of seeker build. The other was a larger Black and Purple, more ready and fit for combat.
Skyscrapper, transform and scout ahead! See what that signal is. I will follow behind after you comm me with the details.
So Skyscrapper transformed into his green fighter jet, and headed off to where his energon tracker was leading him.

Skyscrapper returned, he gave a look as if nothing to report and duo went back through the GB, back to the Nemesis, with it of course closing behind them.

Upon Colonel Taggon's secret com-link command, Aries Fist was loaded with protectobots, and readied for take off. Mining energon elsewhere after they deposited their already gained energon was the next location. Taggon had given them four lacerations from which they were to retrieve energon, and each one would be visited, and the energon would be transported to the Autobot base. The protectobots had already transported via ground bridge a vast quantity of energon which they had found here, and now they would go ahead and complete their loading of men.
The ground shook as the thrusters of the behemoth ship ignited, sending the huge frigate sky bound once more. In constant cloak, the vessel flew out of the area, heading for it's next destination with built up speed, and about two hundred protectobots within.
