TFA verse. Autobot base. Reset.

"So..." said Bumblebee quietly from where he was laying on the couch trying to get his processor around the past day. "Is it just me... or were things just really really weird today?"

Optimus looked around from where he'd been watching Prowl talk quietly with Koko. "I'd say that about sums it up."

Then he frowned and scanned the room. "...Am I forgetting someone here? Everyone's accounted for... but it feels like someone's missing."

"Someone like Blackarachnia?" asked Bumblebee quietly.

Optimus' optics went wide. "Yes! But...."

"But it feels all the stuff with the space bridge and finding Professor Sumdac only happened a couple days ago instead of months and months?"

"Yeaaah." Optimus stared down at his small friend. "But I remember the months, too. The memories are overlapped."

"Yeah." Bumblebee sat up, his face unwontedly serious. "It's good to know I'm not, you know, going crazy."

"If you are, then we are too." Prowl had approached in his silent way, Koko held gently in his arms. "It's as though time just... reset."

"Do you think it's another anomaly?" asked Koko quietly.

"It kinda feels like everything's back to normal now," said Bandit soberly, drawing up a knee and hugging it where she was sitting on the arm of the couch.

Optimus started, and then quickly poked himself in the side of the helm. //Myrrh?//

//I'm alright, Optimus. I saw the news. How are you and the others?// came his daughter's calm reply, gently tinged with concern.

He sagged with relief. //We're alright, though Bumblebee and Sari are going to need some rest. Ratchet and Bulkhead are going to try and get a message to Cybertron.//

//So Sari and her father are back?//

//Yes. And Sari....// Optimus hesitated, wondering where to begin with that.

//The newsbots got some good shots of her,// said Myrrh softly. //And Primus told me a little more. I'm looking forward to meeting her.//

//Er... do you have... a sort of... overlap... in your memory?//

//No. But you have to remember... I was only born after the flux started. I never knew the unskewed times.//

//Right....// He still had a hard time keeping in mind that she was less than two months old. Less than that now that things have returned to normal, he reminded himself, feeling his processor strain to comprehend that.

//Is there anything else?// she asked gently.

//No.// Optimus shook his head, calling himself back to the here and now. //No. You'd better go break up Grimlock and Snarl... or Swoop. Whoever he's fighting with this time.//

Myrrh sighed. //Actually, I'm at my headquarters here in Detroit. But I'll continue to pray. Don't worry, things will turn out for the best.//

He nodded, wishing he had her faith in that. //Thank you. Optimus out.//

"Checking on Myrrh?" asked Bandit when he looked up.

"Yes. She's fine...." Optimus frowned and looked around. "Has anyone seen Witchblade?"

Prowl and Koko exchanged a look of surprise, and then Prowl touched the side of his helm, only to wince as his mouth fell open slightly.

"Prowl?" asked Koko, frowning.

The ninja bot looked stunned. "She's joined the Decepticons...."
