The base wasn’t actually too far off from where he’d landed his ship. And now that he’s spotted the Rod Pod, he wonders how he’d missed it. Even if it was in hiding. It was certainly very…Rodimus.

The closer he gets to it, the more he can feel a nervousness building up in his spark. He’d promised Rodimus that he’d keep their plans to himself, and he would. He wasn’t too worried about that; some bots might write him off as an open book, but Drift could keep a secret if he needed to. Even so, he doesn’t like the idea of lying to his fellow Autobots.

If nothing else, it would be good to be among their ranks again…to actually do something instead of just sitting around and waiting for orders. As he walks up to the ship, he looks around to see if he can spot anyone.

“Hello? Is anyone here?”
