Hey guys, after my case of that accursed Writers block, I wound up with the strangest case of plot bunnies. Honestly, Playing Transformers; Revenge of the Fallen has racked my brain, big time.
The end of Stormryder
Chapter One:
Sibling Rivalry
"Arcee, twins, You have a Decepticon in your area, take him down!"
"We're on it," The three Autobots remained hot on the tail of an Audi R8, despite his efforts to escape. Chuckling in victory, the 'con flew through an appartement, losing the three pains.
"Bring in Sideswipe!" Ordered a human. Scrap. Quickly, the 'con was followed, once again by another autobot. Said Autobot transformed, easily keeping up with the con on his wheeled pedes.
"Your time's up Sideways!"
"Not in this lifetime, Autobot!" Sideways snapped, signaling to another 'con. Another Audi, and A4 this time, drove towards the two mechs, transforming as she reached her brother. Sideswipe skidded to a halt as the femme rammed into him. "Try escaping that!" Sideways laughed as he quickly made his escape. Sideswipe threw the Decepticon attacker off him, aiming his blaster at her.
"I thought Megatron ordered all femmes and Sparklings offline?" The silver mech growled. The femme glared at him.
"Sideways was able to convince Megatron that I was worth keeping alive." She snapped, her servos sparking as she charged her attack. "Unlike you," She roared, launching herself at the mech. Sideswipe skidded beneath her as she flew at him, causing her to collide with the road.
"Primus," Smirked the mech. "You're hot,"
"Oh don't you start," Snapped the femme, launching at the mech again. This time, her claws met his armour with the sound of metal on metal. Sideswipe winced and pinned the femme with one pede.
"What's your designation, femme?" Sideswipe snapped.
"Why do you want to know?"
"Just tell me!"
"My designation, is Stormryder." Sideswipe purred as he raised her by her neck. Stormryder growled as he pinned her to the building behind her.
"Shame," He smirked. "You wont be riding anyone any time soon," Stormryder snarled, kicking the mech in the stomach, causing him to let her go and stumble. She tripped him and aimed her blaster at him.
"I don't know how many times I've heard that."
"oh come on," Sideswipe groaned. "You think that is gonna hurt me?" Stormryder opened her mouth to speak, but a large black mech slammed her to the ground.
"This is what took ya?" The mech snarled, facing Sideswipe.
"She's tougher than she looks!" The black mech scoffed, raising an optic ridge as he looked at the femme, laying dazed on the ground.
"She looks like Sideways, only weaker,"
"She's far from weak, 'hide." Sideswipe growled, rising to his pedes. Stormryder onlined her optics and transformed, easily driving between the two mechs, making her escape. "Get her!" The sound of both mechs transforming startled her and she sped up, no Mech was going to touch her.
"isn't that Sideway's sister?" Asked an Autobot as Stormryder drove past, closely followed by the two mechs.
"Keep on her," roared th black mech, increasing his speed. "if she gets away, that's two cons to escape,"
"That ain't gonna happen Ironhide,"
"You wont get away, femme!" Stormryder skidded around a corner as the mechs almost reached her. There was no way in pit she was going to suffer the fate her friend predicted; She was not going to get sliced in half, and neither was her brother. A roar of her engine ripped out as her boosters activated, effectively allowing her escape from the mechs.
"Slaggit!" the outraged roar of both mechs could be heard as she drove out of the city; She escaped unscathed.
"Fraggin' autobots." She snarled, racing down the road. "Hopefully Sideways will appreciate what I've done for him."
A long journey seemed to last a lifetime as Stormryder raced down the road. Luckily enough, Grindor was waiting to return her to the Nemesis at the end of the road. Though, it was miles away. As the silhouette of a large 'copter mech became larger, Stormryder vented in relief. She skidded to a halt before the great mech, transforming as she stopped.
"You took your time," Grindor purred.
"That slagger Ironhide showed up."
"Figured as much," Grindor stated, pulling the femme close to him. "He's always getting involved,"
"He's worse than Starscream," purred Stormryder, pressing her chassis to the rumbling mech.
"I can hear!" Snarled the mentioned seeker, transforming and landing before the two 'cons. "And my sight is sharp as ever. The sight of you two like that is sickening." Grindor and Stormryder smirked, nuzzling each other. Starscream gagged, rolling his optics. "Save the dirty stuff for later." With that, Starscream transformed and took off. Grindor took Stormryder in his arms bridal style, and lifted into the air as his rotor blades turned.
Sideways tapped his pede on the floor of the Nemesis irritably. Where was Stormryder? They had training with Long Haul in a joor. If she was late, he was going to murder her. Sideways jolted as the door hissed open. His left optic twitched as Starscream walked in, followed by Grindor, Stormryder in his arms. What the slag is wrong with her? Sideways snarled as Grindor set her on her pedes, before giving her a gentle peck on the lip components.
"Where have you been?" Sideways all but snarled. Stormryder glared at her brother.
"Saving your tailpipe you ungrateful slagger!" She snapped.
"Now now, no need to fight," Long Haul chided, stomping in. "Save it for The Autobots." The twins blinked and stood rigid, started by the sudden demand. "Get out to the training deck, before I drag you both there by the audios. I will be out in a bream." Sideways and Stormryder gave each other the same glare, before stomping to the training deck.
"If you are so concerned with our performance," Grindor snarled. "Why don't you show us how to do it correctly, rather than flapping your mandible, you smoking bot!"
"Your attitude is not required, Grinderp," Starscrean snarled back. Grindor growled, his engine roaring angrily. The sound of the door hissing open startled the two mechs. Sideways and Stormryder walked in, their paint was scraped and they both had an identical scar that had reopened on their chestplates. Sideways growled at his sister as he took his place to Grindor's left. Stormryder stood by his other side. Long Haul walked in soon after, his armour was scratched half to pit, and both his cannons were smoking.
"You look as though you have had a run in with Primus," Starscream mused. "Were they that bad?" Long Haul limped to his spot between Starscream and Sideways.
"They were exceptional, Lord Starscream." Long Haul murmured. "Almost as powerful as Barricade."
"is that so?" Starscream grinned, eyeing the twins, who were glaring menacingly at each other.
"Affirmative,"
"Good, Maybe if Barricade does eventually show up, he will partner with them," Starscream paused as Grindor raised his rotor blades. "Or Sideways, at least. It appears Grindor has already decided Stormryder as his partner." Grindor lowered his blades, still glaring at the seeker. "Now, I have intel that my other Trinemates are arriving," Long Haul lifted his head in interest, Grindor ceased his Glaring and the twins stood rigid. "I expect you to accept them, Compute?" The four Decepticons nodded their helms. "Good, They will also be aiding us in reviving Megatron,"
"Good, maybe then we will have a worthwhile leader," Grindor snarled.
"You and Blackout really grind my gears, you know that?"
"We are loyal only to Lord Megatron, Commander Starscream." Grindor grinned at Starscream's snarl. Said Mech mumbled.
"Starscream," Murmured a low voice. All 'cons turned to face the source. There, standing in the doorway, hidden by the shadows, stood a tall mech, arms crossed.
"Barricade," Starscream mused. "I see you have returned," Barricade stepped into the light, his armour reflecting the ominous orange glow from the projection of earth, his eyes glowing brightly. Stormryder and Sideways stared in awe. Barricade nodded once.
"So, you're the infamous Barricade." Long Haul nodded at the mech, who nodded back.
"Correct, You must be the Constructiocon I've heard so much about, Long Haul, is it?" Long Haul nodded. Barricade turned to grindor. "Blackout's brother, I assume?" Grindor nodded once. "What is your Designation? Blackout never informed me."
"My designation is Grindor," Barricade grinned.
"Fitting," He looked to the two Twins staring at him. "Greetings, My sparklings." The chamber fell silent.
This turned out shorter than I expected... oh well
