It's a gorgeous night at the Kanto Region, the full moon shining bright. A flock of Pidgey flying high in the night sky. While down on the road below a silver Corvette Stingray was driving at incredible speed. Only thing one was... No one was driving! The car began to speak while on the move, "So there I am on a lookout when out of no where these red and blue beam light up my rearview. I instantly knew what was up. I was illegally parked!"
Somewhere on a road in Johto a blue motorcycle, also without a driver, responded, "Another parking ticket?"
"Better... The boot!" The Stingray said on the other line.
"Big metal tire clamp, impossible to remove."
"Bingo! So the local Officer Jenny did her thing, and I let the Tow-truck hauled me all the way down the block. That's when I kick off my new shiny tires, and BANG!"
"Viridian City's finest soil themselves."
"You know me, Arcee. you mess with Sideswipe..."
"And you get the blades." He popped the hood open, only to revealed two six-foot blades. Laughing while he does it.
"But I'm not so sure how that goes with Autobot rule number one. 'Keep a low profile.' Huh?"
As Sideswipe passed a sign that said, 'Welcome to Pallet Town! Home to Pokemon Master Ash Ketchum.' His response to Arcee was, "What could I say? Patrolling for Energon out here on dullest planet could get so lonesome. Almost makes me miss the Decepticons."
"Like Goldenrod City is a party." She projected a hologram of a Officer Jenny before entering the city. "We're alone wherever we travel on this rock Sideswipe."
Sideswipe's glove compartment opened to reveal a radar. That was constantly beeping. "I'm getting a signal."
"Need backup?"
"Do I ever need backup?" He went off-road. He went deeper and deeper in the woods. He reached a clearing and in the center was a crater full of blue crystals. "Jackpot! I just struck a rich amount of Energon." The ground began to shake, a large shadow casted of the area. Sideswipe rotated his rearview at the trees from behind. Aipoms, Spearows, and Vigoroths fled the safety of the trees. He knew the one thing that would scare Pokemon like that. He changed into Robot Mode. (A/N: The ROTF Sideswipe) "Decepticons!"
He turned around to see a Decepticon warship, The Nemesis. It's lower cannons aimed and fired at Sideswipe! The blast erosion sent him flying into the crater. He gets up to his feet or in this case tires. The bottom hanger opened and about a dozen Vehicons came out and landed on top of the mouth of the crater. Seeing how the situation has drastically changed, "Arcee. About that backup. I'm gonna need like five Earth minutes ago."
"Affirmative."
"Heads up waring for you guys. I'll slice that paint-job right off of ya." He transformed into Vehicle Mode, popped out his blades and shifted to third gear. He drove fast enough to get out of the crater, causing instant death to a Vehicon that was to close to the edge and Sideswipe was launched into midair. While in midair he change into Robot Mode as he descended to the Decepticons. Balling up his fist and smashed one of them.
Meanwhile in Unova
A red Peterbilt truck was driving on a desert highway. "Arcee to Optimus! The Decepticons have returned! Sideswipe might be in a load of scrap!"
"Understood." The truck responded, "Ratchet. Do you have Sideswipe's coordinates?"
A white and orange emergency truck was pulling in a garage. "I'm locked onto his signal Optimus." He made it into a giant room with a Autobot symbol on the floor and a giant computer. "But the rest of team is scattered across different regions!"
Optimus made a roll call, "Arcee," In Goldenrod City she pulled up at a corner. "Bulkhead," At Mt. Pyre a green ATV Pickup truck braked. "Wheeljack," At Jubilife City a green, red, and white Mooncraft Shiden race car pulled over. "Cliffjumper," On Shamouti Island beach road a red '70s Dodge Challenger decorated with bull horns on the hood pulled over. "Bumblebee." At Cerulean City a yellow Camareo with black racing stripes pulled over. Optimus continued the orders, "Prepare to Ground Bridge to aid Sideswipe." All vehicles soon drove off again.
Back at Kanto
Sideswipe was holding his own for now. But quickly the Vehicons started to do some damage to him. One elbowed his right torso not only knocking off his Autobot symbol but sent him again flying into the crater. This time he made a nice landing on his tire feet. The eight Decepticons reached the bottom of the crater. "You want the blades?" He whips out his duel blades. "You've got 'em!" He speeded at them. Slicing and cutting down four of the Vehicons. He was about to cut another one but this one grabbed his left blade and completely ripped off. Then uppercut him taking a few steps back he pulls out his cannons from his back and gunned down one. The other three instantly retuned fire Sideswipe manage to dodge each blast. Unfortunately the shots went directly to the Energon causing an explosion.
Only two Vehicons survived to blast and surprisingly so did Sideswipe. Except he was heavily damaged and the two had a grip on both his arms so he can't resist. They took him back to the Nemesis. In the bridge a silver Decepticon was watching a replay of the explosion on the main screen monitor. "The Energon! It worthless to me now." The doors opened, he turned around to see the Vehicons bring a injured Sideswipe before him.
"Starscream. It's been a while." He coughs up a little bit of Energon. "So. Where's your master?"
"Never mind him! I am my own master." Starscream plunges his blade-like fingers into Sideswipe's chest, causing him great pain. "Any more questions?" Energon starts leaking out of Sideswipe's wound as Starscream pulled out his fingers. Sideswipe's lifeless body falls to the floor. "Clean that up." Ordering the Vehicons.
The Nemesis left the area, but at the site a green vortex appeared. The ambulance, motorcycle, pickup truck, Mooncraft Shiden, '70s Dodge Challenger, and the Camareo came out and all transformed into giant robots. The Peterbilt was the last and also transformed. Every single one of them with weapons at the ready. Problem was that there wasn't anyone or anything at site. They all lowered their weapons. "An untapped Energon deposit." Optimus said.
"Or what's left of it." Wheeljack corrected.
"This has been the first Decepticon activity in three solar-cycles." Ratchet added.
"That we know of." Optimus stated. "But if they're scouting for Energon now. They may be preparing for his return." The Autobots advanced closer to the site.
Arcee and Cliffjumper were the first to reach the bottom. She gasped at the horror of what she saw. Sideswipe's blade and Autobot symbol. She picked up the piece of metal and Cliffjumper picked up the blade. "No." She said in a sad tone. Ratchet examined the parts.
"Ratchet. Can you track his position?" Optimus asked.
Ratchet looked at his radar on his right arm. Eight green dots were on the radar. One, however, was moving away from the others. It was yellow and slowly turned red and then disappeared. A flat line rang throughout the radar. "No! Sideswipe's life signal just went offline."
"What now?" Cliffjumper asked.
"Give Sideswipe's remains a proper burial." Optimus ordered.
All went back to the Ground Bridge vortex. Arcee was devastated that her partner was gone. Ratchet stopped Optimus for other news. "Optimus. My scanner is picking up a Energon pulse on the Western side of Pallet Town."
"At sunrise we'll go after it." Both of them went through Ground Bridge and it closed. However, high in the sky a black Predator spy plane was recording the conversation. It flew away. Back to the Decepticon warship.
In the Nemesis
Starscream was monitoring the ship's conditions. When a Decepticon without a face, instead a monitor. He approached him. "Soundwave. What is it?" He replayed the Autobots voices. "Redeploy to the West. Why should we just slay one Autobot when we still have the advantage of surprise?"
On the peak of Mt. Moon
The Autobots gather around a pile of rocks. Optimus makes a speech. "We must not allow our anger over the loss of Sideswipe to impair our judgement. As of today only we seven Autobots remain on this Earth. We owe it to ourselves. To the memories of Cybertron. To any Autobots in any galaxy seeking safe harbor." Cliffjumper places Sideswipe's6 blade on top of the pile. "To human and Pokemon kind alike. And we owe it to the memory of our fallen comrade," Arcee placed the Autobot symbol at the base of the pile. "to survive."
"Till all are one!" They all said.
"I need volunteers to go and check out another Energon deposit." Ratchet asked. Cliffjumper, Arcee, and Wheeljack agreed to go.
In Pallet Town
The sun was out and the light was beaming through a window. The beam of light woke up a young couple that was still in bed with a Pikachu and a Piplup sleeping at the other end. The blue-haired girl was the first to wake up. She turned over to kissed the messy, raven hair boy on the cheek. Who woke up and turned his head around to face her. "Well good morning beautiful."
"Morning to you too Ash." He sat up right to kiss on the lips.
"Happy Birthday Dawn." Remembering what day it was.
"Thanks." She gave him another kiss. "Last night all you and Brock seemed to talk about was that explosion that happened last night. You had me worried."
"No way. I can't forget about my special girl's special day. Hey guys." The yellow electric mouse and the blue penguin woke up and gave a small yawn. "Ready for Dawn's surprise." They nodded in agreement. "Okay then. Go get Kingler and have it ready." Both Pokemon left the room and soon the house.
"Ash. Just because you're the youngest Pokemon Master doesn't mean you have to give me the whole world. All I want is you."
"Maybe but this is very special and important." Mainly because Ash plans to propose to Dawn. "Anyway we should get ready my Mom said that she'd be happy to take care of your 18th Birthday brunch."
They took an hour to shower and change into their cloths. Ash was downstairs in the living room watcing the news about the explosion and a reported UFO siting. "Ash. I'm ready to go." He turned off the TV and walked towards the stairway. Seeing Dawn coming down halfway.
"You are absolutely stunning." Commenting her pink spring dress and pink heels. Causing her to blush rosy red.
"You're not so bad yourself." Ash wore his usual Sneakers, jeans, and a navy blue button shirt.
"We better get going." Reaching his hand out for her. She took his hand and together they left their house and headed for Delia Ketchum's house.
In the Western forest
Deep in the forest Pikachu, Piplup and Kingler approached an area with large blue crystals. Almost sapphire. But what these Pokemon are unaware that the crystals is actually Energon. Kingler repeatedly used Crabhammer on one of the crystals until the perfect piece was chipped off. Pikachu picked it up. Piplup had a ring case with a ring in it but no shiny rock in it. Which Pikachu placed the Energon fragment in fit perfectly and the three Pokemon left.
"Scrap. Now we have less Energon." Cliffjumper said. Looking at the shattered Energon.
"Who cares." Arcee said. Slicing the Energon carefully into cubes. "What damage can three Pokemon do with a small sliver Energon?" Bumblebee beeped in agreement.
Delia Ketchum's house
Dawn's Birthday was going well. The food was delicious. As for presents she received a purse from Delia, a pair of shoes from May and Max, earrings from Misty, and a dress from Brock. Ash was lost in his head as he watched Dawn's smile. His daydream ended when he heard a tap from the glass. He knew it had to be Kingler and it was. "You got the piece." Kingler carefully opened the ring case with his pincer. Revealing the ring. "Perfect." Looking at the 'sapphire' ring.
"What's going on?" Dawn's voice came from behind.
Ash quickly hid the case in his pocket. "Nothing!" He used this opportunity to propose. "Um... Dawn?"
"Yes?"
"Can you come with me please? It's about time you receive your surprise."
"Okay." Ash took Dawn to the Western forest. Pikachu, Piplup, and Kingler slowly followed behind. Along with Max, who Ash asked to video record the proposal.
At the Energon site
The three Autobots harvested half of the Energon. Their work stopped when they heard a female voice. "Ash." There was a giggle. "Can I take this blindfold off now?"
"Not yet." Said a male voice.
Arcee, Cliffjumper and Bumblebee hid in their vehicle disguise. Parking behind the Energon. Ash and Dawn was soon in Arcee's sight.
"Okay, now." Dawn removed the blindfold to see towering 'sapphire' crystals. Dawn just gasped in amazement. "I found this place when I was ten years old. The day before I began my Pokemon journey. I'm surprised no else found this."
"Come on Romeo. Wrap this up already." Cliffjumper said to himself. Still hiding behind the Energon. And the Autobots weren't the only ones watching the humans.
A black Cadillac Cien and a black Audi R8 was hiding in the tree line behind Ash and Dawn. "Commander Starscream. Energon sited with a male and female human on the premises."
"Destroy them both!" Starscream was furious that the Vehicons reported human on the site instead of Autobots.
Facing Dawn. Holding her hands. "Dawn, I love your glowing smile. Exactly like these sapphires. In fact, my heart dances whenever I see your glowing smile. Which is why I need to ask you..." He was about take one knee when twin headlight high beams flashed and temporarily blinded them both.
The Cadillac and Audi floored in to ram them both down. From the bushes, Pikachu, Piplup and Kingler emerged also pushing Max out as well. He dropped the camera on impact. The three Pokemon stood in front of their Trainers. Kingler and Piplup used Bubblebeam and Pikachu used ThunderShock. To their surprise the two vehicles morphed, changed into giant robots. And the attacks past between their feet. The Audi Decepticon fired a warning shot at them. But the blast was big enough for the five of them to fall off their feet.
Both Vehicons got ready to aim. It was interrupted at the sounds of a motorcycle engine. Everyone looked to the direction where the noise came from. Sure enough Arcee, in her motorcycle mode, drove in and transformed. "This ends here Decepticreeps!" She charged at them, dodging their fire blast and took them on in a hand-to-hand combat. "This is for Sideswipe!" Busting them up with her arm blades. Soon Bumblebee and Cliffjumper drove to back her up.
Ash, Dawn and the Pokemon made to Max. He was looking for his glasses. "What's Max doing here?"
"I'll explain later." Ash answered.
"Why? What did I miss?" Max found his glasses and turned around. To see five super-sized robots fighting. "Whoa! Where's my camera?" A Vehicon punched Bumblebee hard enough for him to take a few steps back. There was a loud crack. Bumblebee looked down to see that a broken camera. He turned to Max and made whistle noise. Ash and Dawn didn't understand, but Max did, "That's okay. Really I'll just..." Two more Vehicons showed up and shot Bumblebee. They were about to finish him off and Max tried to interfere. "Leave him alone!" They turned their weapons at him. "Please?"
"Bad call." Ash said. Grabbing his shoulder and Dawn's arm. One Vehicon followed them. They hid in a large fallen tree. The Vehicon tried to reach them with one hand but stopped and was pulled back. Next thing they see is Bumblebee's face and winked at them and left to join the others.
"What did we just see?" Max asked.
"Don't know." Dawn responded.
"And don't want to find out." Ash added. The three of them and the three Pokemon fled.
The Autobots and the Deceticons had a Mexican standoff. Just waiting to see who would fire first. The Decepticons looked back to see a Mooncraft Shiden race car drive up from behind. It transformed into Wheeljack, "Who's ready to rumble?" Wheeljack asked. Pulling out his two swords. The Vehicons transformed and drove off.
"What took ya so long?" Arcee asked.
"Traffic." Wheeljack said. The four Autobots gathered the last of the Energon and returned to base at Mt. Moon
In Mt. Moon
"And the Decepticreeps would have been scrap metal if we hadn't been distracted by the humans." Arcee debriefed.
"Humans?" Optimus quickly catched to what Arcee said. Bumblebee made a beeping noise. "Two boys and a girl."
"I guess a third one caught us in action I don't know Optimus. Was a little bit busy at the time. Either way we have the Energon."
"If the Decepticons have returned and targeting us. Anyone assumed as our ally will be at grave risk." Optimus said.
Back at Delia's house
Delia had to unexpectedly leave to her second job at the pediatrician center. Mr. Mime was in the house cleaning. So it was just Ash and his friends in the living room watching TV. Max was blabbering on and on about the robots. The Autobots were outside, listening.
Ash pulled him out in the front yard. "Max, listen. About earlier day. Let's just keep it between you, Dawn and me. And forget about what happened."
May came down to see about what happened. "Let me get this straight. Your proposal moment was ruined by giant car robots?"
Ash didn't hesitate to respond. "No! That's ridiculous." A honking noise came from an approaching vehicle. The three of them turned to see a yellow Camaro. "On no." He quietly said. Bumblebee opened the passenger door and made a buzzing noise. "It wants us to get in."
"No just me and my sister May."
"How do you know that?"
"He said so."
"What?"
Max turned Ash to the left. "Yours is over there." At the blue motorcycle and red Dodge Challenger parked down the road.
"Look I really don't think..." It was too late. Max and May already hopped aboard the car and drove off. "Hey! Stop!" Ash looked back at Arcee, who was parked closer to him. He decided to go through the back door.
From the window Brock was staring a the motorcycle. Dreaming about how many girls would want him. "Hey Brock!" He turned to Dawn, "Did you noticed that May and Max went in that car?" He just shook his head no and quickly went back to the bike. But it was gone. Misty, Pikachu,Dawn and Piplup noticed Ash walking on the side of the house. Brock noticed the bike was following him. They all went out through the back door.
Arcee went ahead of Ash and stopped him. "Relax. I just want to talk to you."
"Yeah. Well you friends must have had one heck of an argument." He turned around to the front yard only to be blocked off by Cliffjumper who was in robot mode.
"Kid there is a lot that you don't understand." He said.
"No no no. I get it." Backing away from the red Autobot. "The first rule about 'Robot Fight Club' is that you don't mention it." He turned to Arcee. "What you need to understand is that I don't want a bunch of crazy, talking vehicles," She then transformed to robot mode. ",following me around. Trying to get me or the one I care about get killed!"
"Look. Ash, is it?" Arcee asked. "Your personal safety is exactly why Optimus Prime has requested your presence."
"Optimus who?"
Cliffjumper continued, "You maybe endangered because you are one of the few. One of the only ones to have ever seen us."
"Ash?" Brock's voice came from behind. They turned to see everyone else. "Can we also come?"
"Scrap." Was the only thing Arcee said.
At the outskirts of Mt. Moon
The three Autobots drove into a canyon part of Mt. Moon. Max and May were with Bumblebee, Misty and Brock with Cliffjumper and Ash and Dawn with Arcee. "Why are we taking Misty and Brock?" Ash asked seeing Cliffjumper passing by them.
"Rules." Arcee answered.
They drove directly to a dead end. But the Autobots weren't slowing down. They were about to hit the wall when it opened and a steel door behind it opened as well. Driving up a spiral drive way and into a huge room. Ratchet and Wheeljack were by the computers and Bulkhead came from a corridor to see the arrival humans. When they got off the three 'Bots chnage to robot mode.
"I thought there were three?" Ratchet was confused.
"Haven't you heard? Humans multiple." Cliffjumper said.
"You know me." Ash said. "But this is Pikachu."
"Pika!"
"I'm Dawn. And this is Piplup."
"Piplup!"
"The name's Brock."
"Max."
"Misty."
"I'm May." She walked up to the green robot with astonishment. "And you are?"
"Bulkhead." She began to ask him so many questions that he couldn't have time to answer.
"So if you guys are robot, who made you?" Max asked them.
"Ugh! Please!" Ratchet said.
Loud footsteps came from another corridor. The looked to see another robot. Taller than the rest. Optimus said. "We are autonomous robotic organisms. From the planet Cybertron. Also known as Autobots."
"Why are you here?" Ash asked.
"To protect your planet from the Decepticons."
"The jokers who tried to bump us off earlier today." Arcee explained.
"Okay. Why are they here?" Dawn asked.
"A fair question Dawn. In part, they are here because our planet is uninhabitable. Ravaged by eons of civil war."
"Why were you fighting a war?" Misty asked.
"Foremost, for control of our world supply of Energon. The fuel and lifeblood of all Autobots and Decepticons alike. The battles were fierce and endured for centuries. In the beginning, I fought alongside one whom I considered a brother. But in war, ideals can be corrupted. And it was thus that Megatron lost his way."
"So what does Megatron or any of this have to do with us?" Ash asked.
"Megatron has not been seen or heard from in some time. But if his return is emanate, as I fear, it could be catastrophic."
The Nemesis bridge
Soundwave approached Starscream with a faint signal. "Those transmission are originating from deep space. I would hat to waste the Energon. Unless you are absolutely certain." Soundwave nodded his head. "Then lock on transmission coordinates." Ordering a nearby Vehicon. "And activate the Space Bridge."
Out in Earth's orbit a giant Space Bridge was activated. And a lone grey Cybertronian jet came out. The jet transformed to a giant robot, Megatron. He said, "Decepticons! I have returned."
