Jasper, Nevada
It was another sunny evening in the desert of Jasper, Nevada. A purple muscle car drove over the hill. If one were to the stop the vehicle and open the door, they would see that it has no driver.
The car spoke to someone. "So there I am on lookout when these high beams light up my rear end. That's when it hit me, I'm illegally parked!"
In another part of the state, a sliver motorcycle was driving down the road with a female driver. "Another parking ticket?" The motorcycle asked.
"Better, the boot." The muscle car corrected.
"Big metal tire, impossible to remove."
"Bingo! So the local police did their 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!"
"New York's finest soil themselves."
"You know me, Steelstrike. You mess with Wildspark…"
"You get the claws." Steelstrike finished, causing Wildspark to laugh. "Not sure how that complies with Decepticon rule number one; keep a low profile?"
"What can I say?" Wildspark began. "Patrolling for energon in Dullsvile can get lonesome. Almost makes me miss the Destructicons."
"Like Jasper's a party?" Steelstrike retorted. "We're alone where ever we go on this rock, Wild."
Suddenly, a beeping went off in Wildspark's glove box, revealing it to be a radar. "I'm picking up a signal."
"Need backup?" Steelstrike asked.
"Do I ever need backup?" Wildspark inquired before taking a turn.
He drove off the road and ventured for a few minutes before coming to a halt in front of a carter. Said carter was filled with blue crystals, energon.
"I just came across the jackpot." Wildspark cheered.
However, a large shadow covered the area, the shape of it being a ship. It could only be one thing, the Destructicon warship, the Prowler.
Wildspark transformed into his robot mode. "Destructicons." He decreed, looking up.
One of the turrets underneath the Prowler fired, and laser exploded near Wildspark, causing him to fall into the carter. Fortunately, he managed to land on his feet at the last second.
A large hatch underneath the Prowler opened up, and out came Destructicon foot soldiers, at least a dozen of them. They all stared down at the lone Decepticon.
"Uh, Steelstrike. About that backup." Wildspark said. He eyed his enemies for a few tense seconds before speaking. "Fair warning boys, I'll leave a few cuts on ya."
With that said, the Decepticon transformed into his car and drove toward the rocks in the crater, accelerating. He flew into the air, transforming, then came crashing down on his enemies.
High above in the sky, a jet soared. But it was no ordinary jet. It was sliver, and it's shape was alien, and it had a red symbol on it. Seconds later, the vehicle received a transmission.
"Steelstrike to Megatron! The Structs are back! Wild may be neck deep in scrap!" Steelstrike shouted worryingly.
"Understood." Megatron said. "Soundwave, do you have Wildspark's coordinates?"
Meanwhile in a snowy part of Canada, a light blue Reaper plane flew. "Coordinates locked, Lord Megatron, but our team is scattered across time zones. Initializing ground bridge charge up." Soundwave said in his unique voice.
Megatron then did a roundup. "Steelstrike, Breakdown, Knock Out, Quickbolt, Shockwave, Starscream. Return to base and prepare to ground bridge to Wildspark's location."
Wildspark was doing extremely well against the Destructicon foot soldiers, but their numbers overwhelmed him. One punched Wildspark from behind, causing him to stumble forward, allowing a Destructicon to kick him in the chest. Wildspark stumbled again and a Destructicon struck him, causing a piece of Wildspark's armor to come off.
Wildspark crashed down into the crater, and the Destructicons jumped down, intending to finish their enemy.
"You want the claws?" Wildspark spat as he stood, converting his arms into blasters. "You got them."
He then began to open fire, striking down one of the Destructicon, who all in turn fired back with their one weapons. The shootout went on for ten seconds, and a Destructicon laser hit one of the crystals, causing a large explosion. Two Destructicons then dragged a mortally wounded Wildspark.
The Prowler
In the command bridge of the Prowler, a Destructicon watched the event from a screen. But he was different from the others. He was grey, had a tail, sharper claws, yellow optics, and his head resembled that of a wolf.
"The energon, it's useless now." The Destructicon growled in frustration.
A hatch in the floor behind him opened and up came the two Destructicons. They dragged Wildspark to him, then forced him on his knees, all while the wolf like Destructicon turned around.
"Steeljaw. Long time." Wildspark commented before spitting out energon. "So, where's your master?"
"Never mind her!" Steeljaw snapped. "I'm my own master." Without warning Steeljaw buried his claws into Wildspark's chest, right where his spark chamber is. "Got it?"
Wildspark's life began to flash before his optics. His thoughts went to his team, his family. "Steelstrike… I'm sorry."
Steeljaw violently tore his claws out of Wildspark's chest, allowing the Decepticon to fall to the floor, lifeless.
"Clean that up." Steeljaw ordered the two Destructicons.
The Surface
Down on the ground, the Prowler vanished from view just as a green and white portal opened. In order, out came Breakdown, Steelstrike, Knock Out, Quickbolt, Starscream, Soundwave, Shockwave, and lastly, Megatron.
They all had their weapons drawn, ready for battle. However, there was no one but themselves, so they all either deactivated or retracted their weapons.
"An untapped energon deposit." Shockwave observed.
"What's left of it, anyway." Knock Out replied.
"This is the first Destructicon activity in three Earth years." Starscream stated.
"That we know of." Megatron said grimly. "If they are scouting for energon, they must be preparing for her return."
The group approached the crater and started to spread out. "My liege, my scanners have detected something in the crater." Knock Out reported, pointing to said crater.
Steelstrike jumped down into the crater. It didn't take her long to spot something that made her gasp in horror; a piece of Wildspark's armor. She gently picked it up before saying in a sad tone. "No."
"Soundwave, can you track his position?" Megatron asked.
"Affirmative." Soundwave nodded, his visor showing nine green dots. However one of them turned red, before fading away completely. "My liege, Wildspark's life signal just went offline."
"No." Breakdown said sadly.
"The only thing we can do is give Wildspark's remains a proper burial." Megatron decreed.
With that said, the eight Decepticons returned home, saddened by the loss of Wildspark, especially Steelstrike. Wildspark was her partner, one of her closest friends… and he was gone.
The Prowler
Steeljaw was at the terminal, still taking satisfaction in seeing the look in Wildspark's optics when he struck his claws into the Decepticon's chest. It had been a long time since he had snuffed a Decepticon, let alone one of Megatron's best warriors. However, he was brought of his thoughts when he heard footsteps behind him. A mech identical to Soundwave in all but color approached.
"What is it, Betawave?" Steeljaw demanded somewhat impatiently.
"Like Jasper's a party? We're alone where ever we go on this rock, Wild." Betawave replayed the conversation between Steelstrike and Wildspark.
"Ah, the one called Steelstrike." Steeljaw purred ominously as he turned around to face Betawave. "Why not just slay one Decepticon when we still have the element of surprise on our side?" He finished with a predatory grin.
Decepticon Base
The eight Decepticons were gathered atop of their base, sending off their fallen comrade. It was then Megatron gave his speech.
"We must not allow our anger over the loss of Wildspark to impair our judgement. As of today, only we eight Decepticons remain on Earth. We owe it to ourselves. To the memory of Cybertron. To any Decepticon in any galaxy seeking safe harbor." As the Decepticon leader continued, Steelstrike placed Wildspark's armor in front of the rock monument. "To mankind, and we owe it to the memory of our fallen comrade, to survive." Megatron finished.
Steelstrike began to move away from the group. She couldn't deal with this right now. It was too much. "Steelstrike?" Megatron asked, concern evident in his voice.
"Standing around here sulking won't bring Wildspark back." She said emotionally. "I… I need some time alone." With that said, she transformed into her motorcycle form and drove off, everyone watching her.
"My liege, helping humans will only result in more tragedy." Starscream commented.
"Your statement has been noted, Starscream." Megatron replied.
Jasper
The life of a certain sixteen year old boy is about to be changed forever; Jack Darby, who at the moment was currently working at his job.
"Welcome to KO Drive-In, where every patty's a knockout. May I take your order?" He asked the customer in a rather dull tone.
"Uh, two super combos, extra fries." A man said through the speaker.
"Okay, dos numero twos." Jack said, grabbing a tray with the food the customer ordered. "Anything else?" He asked as he began to wrap the food.
"Yeah. Some advice. How do I get an awesome job like yours?" The man asked, snickering with his friends, causing Jack to glare at the microphone.
"So, that's two "We're not as funny as we think we are combos" with a side of bite me." Jack retorted.
"Hey, what'd ya say?"
"5.59, sir. At the window." Jack spat.
He looked at a different direction within his workplace, while the customer drove up to the window. Taking advantage, the customer snatched the food bags and took off, snickering. Jack noticed but it was too late.
"Hey! Now I have to pay!" Jack yelled, but it was pointless.
Meanwhile, Steelstrike was driving down the barren road. Once Jasper came into view, a hologram of a female driver appeared on her. She drove into the town. When she passed by a gas station, two blue cars drove out and followed her.
Steelstrike noticed her tailgaters with her side mirrors. "Twins." She observed. She increased her speed before turning, entering the KO parking lot.
She checked her side mirror to see if her pursuers were still following, but they continued down the street. But Steelstrike knew better. They'll be back, and she'll be ready for them. She checked to make sure no humans were around before doing what she has planned.
"Take five, Sadie." She said, deactivating her hologram and her systems, making herself appear like a normal motorcycle.
It was at that moment Jack walked out of his workplace doors, the same moment his phone went off. He dug it out of his pocket and answered the call. "Hey mom, I just got off… no I'm going to the dance. Experience suggests I should never cut a rug, unless I'm installing carpet… 'be careful', seriously? This is Jasper." He said to his mother. He was about to say more, but it was at that moment he saw a sliver motorcycle parked not too far from him. "I love you… yeah, I love you too, Mom. Gotta run."
He hastily hung up. "Hello beautiful." Jack commented. Subtly, Steelstrike adjusted her side mirror to see the human. "Where have you been all my life?" He asked the motorcycle. "Nice." He continued, running his hands on the driver seat before getting on, gripping the handles. "It may take a few KO paychecks, but I am gonna own a ride like you someday."
During, Jack failed to notice that he was being watched, until he heard a voice. "Are you talking to your motorcycle?"
Startled and embarrassed, Jack turned to the speaker, a brown haired girl he recognized as Sierra, who was accompanied by her best friend, Sarah, both of whom began to snicker. "Uh, my motorcycle? No. I, I mean, yes. Yes. It's mine, but uh, never mind. How are you, Sierra? Take you for a spin, sometime?" Jack said awkwardly.
Again, subtly, Steelstrike adjusted her side view mirror and, to her dismay, saw that the two Destructicons were coming back. "Come on, smooth operator. Wrap this up."
"You know my name?" Sierra demanded suspiciously.
"We're in home room together. I'm Jack. Jack Darby." Jack explained.
But he didn't get the chance to continue when two sets of high beams forced him to cover his eyes, same for Sierra and Sarah. "Scrap." Steelstrike cursed.
The two Destructicons revved up their engines and drove toward the lone Decepticon. Sierra and Sarah made their escape, and suddenly, Jack realized the motorcycle started to drive on it's on.
"Whoa!" Jack exclaimed when the motorcycle started to drive toward the two blue cars and just barely squeezed through the gap.
The Destruticons once again revved up their engines, turned around and pursued their target.
Jack was confused. What's going on? Why is the motorcycle driving on it's on?
"Do not let go!" A female voice said out of nowhere.
"Who said that?!" Jack exclaimed, surprised.
At that moment, the two Destructicons drove up next to Steelstrike. Knowing what they have planned, she decreased her speed just as her enemies slammed their sides into each other. This seemed to daze each other, so Steelstrike accelerated and made a right turn.
"Commander Steeljaw. Target acquired, accompanied by a human youth." One of the Destructicons reported.
"Eviscerate them both and bring me their heads!" Steeljaw shouted through their com-link.
In a nearby alley, Steelstrike came to a skidding stop, allowing Jack to hop off. "What are you?" He demanded.
"I don't exist. Tell anyone about me and I'll hunt you down." Steelstrike threatened.
Jack didn't need to be told twice, so he ran down the alley. Steelstrike revved up her engine and took off, just as the Destructicons continued their pursuit. But suddenly, Steelstrike noticed the lead Destructicon made a turn… into the same alley Jack ran down.
"Scrap." She cursed before making a sharp and quick U-turn. She drove toward the approaching the Destructicon and used her enemy's front as a ramp, launching herself high into the air and landed down.
Meanwhile, Jack was running for dear life down the alley when he noticed one of the blue cars was following him. "I don't even know her!" He panted, trying to reason with the vehicle, but it seemed to be of no use.
It was at that moment, Steelstrike came from behind, once again using her enemy as a ramp, launching herself into the air. As soon as she landed, she quickly drove up to Jack.
"Hop on!" She shouted. Jack didn't need to be told twice.
He hopped on and Steelstrike increased her speed. As much as she didn't like it, this human's safety was now her number one priority. She continued down the street, heading for the freeway. The Destructicon vehicles deployed weapons that were hidden underneath their hoods and began to fire upon the retreating Decepticon. Jack had to duck a few times in order to avoid being hit.
"Why are those guys shooting at us?!" Jack asked Steelstrike as she drove onto the highway.
"There's no us, kid. And they're no guys." The Decepticon answered curtly as she drove around civilian vehicles.
Jack looked back to see their pursuers were behind, but closing in on them fast. But help is on the way. On the other side of the highway, was a familiar green and white sports car; the Decepticon Quickbolt.
Quickbolt slammed himself into one of his enemies, causing the same Destructicon to crash into the other one.
"Friend of yours?!" Jack asked, noticing the new arrival.
"Family." Steelstrike answered.
Briefly changing their target, the Destructicons set their sights on Quickbolt. Briefly, the three played a game of who can stay in front, rapidly changing lanes, with Quickbolt in the front. When they changed lanes for the last time, one of the Destructicons stayed behind Quickbolt while the other drove up next to and slammed himself into the Decepticon, causing him to crash into the guard rail.
Beneath the bridge
Meanwhile, underneath the bridge, was the twelve year old genius Rafael Esquivel, playing with his remote controlled car, making vrrm noises. All while completely oblivious to the events occurring on the highway and to how his life will be forever changed.
His phone went off, so he dug it out of his pocket and answered the call. "Hi mama… racing… up the street…okay… just five more minutes?" He then hung up, and continued to make car noises.
The Highway
Steelstrike continued to speed down the highway… right toward roadwork. Jack noticed this and his eyes widened in absolute horror. Steelstrike sped toward it as if it wasn't even there. Suddenly, she drove off a ramp, launching herself high into the air yet again.
"AAAAAAAAAH!" Jack screamed as Steelstrike landed on the ground, before going lower into where one can access the tunnels.
Steelstrike came to a halt, and Jack looked like as if he's going to be sick, all while Raf noticed, who dropped his remote.
"Whoa." The young boy said, amazed.
"Uh. You have no idea." Jack wheezed as he got off Steelstrike.
The sixteen year old then began to back away from the motorcycle. Suddenly, Jack and Raf's attention was diverted to the top of the hill when they heard tires screeching and engines. The two Destructicons drove down the hill, launched themselves and transformed in midair. Their landing made the ground shake as they converted one of their arms into a blaster. Steelstrike also transformed, and Jack and Raf had a good idea of what was about to happen so they moved away.
"End of the line, Structs." Steelstrike decreed before charging her enemies.
The two Vehicons began to open fire on the Decepticon, but she managed to evade their lasers with ease thanks to her agility. She leapt into the air and dived toward one of them, kicking him in the chest twice. She then evaded a shot from the other Vehicon and delivered a kick to his face.
"What are they?" Raf asked Jack as they watched the fight.
"Talking cars that turn into robots." Jack answered. "Or the other way around."
Steelstrike kicked a Vehicon in the chest, following it up with an uppercut. "This is for Wild!" She spat out each word with a fierce punch to her enemy's face. However, this seemed to faze the Vehicon briefly. Steelstrike took two steps, then her enemies began shooting at her again. Acting fast, the Decepticon started to perform swift backflips, until a laser bolt struck her in the chest, causing her crash painfully onto the ground.
Jack and Raf turned their heads up to the sky when they heard tires screeching again. Quickbolt flew off the bridge and transformed in midair. He landed on top of one of the Vehicons and delivered a powerful punch to the other.
Quickbolt took a few steps back, but stopped when he felt something crunch underneath his foot. He lifted it up to reveal Raf's remote controlled car… in pieces.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't see it." Quickbolt apologized, speaking in buzzes and beeps.
"No problem, really." Raf assured the Decepticon.
Unfortunately, one of the Vehicons took advantage of Quickbolt and landed a shot on the distracted Decepticon, causing him to crash into the ground. Quickbolt was about to get up, but one of the Vehicons slammed his foot on his back, pinning him to the ground, while the other Vehicon aimed his weapon.
Raf then suddenly yelled. "Leave him alone!" Quickbolt and the two Vehicons looked at the human duo, both of them becoming very nervous. "Please?" Raf asked.
"Bad call." Jack stated as he slightly bended down.
The Vehicon pinning Quickbolt to the ground nodded to the other. And so the Vehicon approached them, causing the humans to flee.
"Come on, come on!" Jack shouted to Raf.
The two boys climbed inside a tunnel as the Vehicon inserted his arm in said tunnel, attempting to grab them.
"Keep moving!" Jack shouted as the claws came closer and closer.
Just as they were about grab them, the arm was violently wrenched away from Jack and Raf, causing them to stop and look back. Their savior turned out to be Quickbolt, who had freed himself.
"Keeping going down the tunnel and don't stop." The Decepticon instructed them.
"Thank you." Raf said gratefully.
"Your welcome." Quickbolt said before getting up.
"Don't look back." Jack said as he and Raf continued down deeper into the tunnel.
"What did we just see?" The younger boy asked.
"Not sure and I don't want to find out."
Quickbolt punched a Vehicon across the face, but the other one struck him from behind, then kneed him in the face, sending him flying and crashing next to Steelstrike, who had recovered from being shot earlier. She helped her friend get and they got into fighting stances.
But then, they heard two different engines from behind. Steelstrike and Quickbolt turned around, and relief washed over them when they saw a familiar blue truck and red sports car with white flames and golden rims. Breakdown and Knock Out transformed into robot mode and took position with their friends.
"Alright." Breakdown began, changing his right fist into a hammer.
"Who's ready to party?" Knock Out finished, converting both hands into buzz saws.
The two Vehicons stared at their enemies for a few seconds, before transforming and fled for their lives, allowing the four Decepticons to relax and retract their weapons.
"What took you two so long?" Steelstrike demanded.
"Traffic." Breakdown answered truthfully.
"Yeah, you will not believe how bad it is." Knock Out added.
Decepticon Base
Quickbolt and Steelstrike were explaining the events to Megatron. "And the Structs would've been scrap if I hadn't been distracted by the humans." Steelstrike wrapped up.
"Humans?" Megatron asked, interested and concerned.
"Two boys." Quickbolt clarified, holding up two claws.
"I guess the second one caught us in action? I don't know, was a little busy at the moment." Steelstrike said.
"If the Destructicons are targeting us, anyone they assume to be our ally will be in grave danger." Megatron stated grimly.
It was true. If the Destructicons thought someone had a connection to the Decepticons, regardless if they actually did or not, they would be captured and subjugated to brutal torture. And after they are finished, they would terminate their captives.
Megatron turned around to face Steelstrike and Quickbolt. "Quickbolt, Steelstrike, bring the humans here so that we can explain the dire situation they are now unfortunately in." The Decepticons in question nodded.
Jasper High School
The next day, Jack walked out of school he attended, still trying to wrap his head around what had transpired yesterday. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Raf standing next to a tree, waving at him. Wanting to talk about what had happened yesterday, Jack walked toward Raf.
"Raf, hey." Jack said as he walked up to the younger boy. "Look, let's just keep this between us and forget anything ever happened."
But that was not meant to be when they heard a car honking its horn. The two boys turned to the direction and saw a familiar green and white sports car.
"Jack." Raf gasped, gripping the older boy's arm.
"Oh no, not again." Jack complained as Quickbolt drove up next to them and opened the passenger seat door.
"Don't be scared, little guy. I just want to take you someplace where we can explain everything." Quickbolt assured him.
"It wants us to get in?" Jack asked hesitantly.
"No, just me." Raf corrected, surprising Jack.
"How do you know that?"
"It said so."
"What?"
"Yours is over there." Raf said, turning around and pointed to where Steelstrike was parked.
Jack was not okay with any of this. "I really don't think that…" Jack began.
"How's it going?" Raf asked Quickbolt as he got in.
"Raf?" Jack questioned and his eyes widened as he saw Quickbolt's door close. "Wait! Stop!" He called but it was no use. His eyes briefly skimmed over to where Steelstrike was parked, then walked off. He didn't want anything to do with this.
On the ledge near the school doors, was one Miko Nakadai, who at the moment was drawing a picture of the sliver motorcycle, taking in fascination. "Coolest bike ever." She crooned just before her phone went off. She dug it out of her pocket and ascertained the caller. "Host parents? Ignore." She declared as he pocketed her phone. Grabbing her sketchpad she looked up, only to see the motorcycle gone.
"Ugh." She groaned in frustration. Fortunately, or unfortunately, depending on one's perspective, she spotted the motorcycle speeding down the street. So, she jumped off the ledge and gave chase, unaware her life was about to change.
Jack was walking down an alley when Steelstrike skidded to a halt in front of him. "Relax, I just want to talk." She said.
"Don't you mean you and your new friend?" Jack demanded angrily, referring to the driver hologram.
"Kid, there's a lot you don't understand." Steelstrike retorted as said hologram vanished.
"No, I get it. The first rule of robot fight club is you don't talk about robot fight club." Jack immediately deduced as began to walk the other way. "What you need to understand is I don't want a bunch of crazy talking vehicles following me around, trying to get me killed!" He finished as Steelstrike transformed.
"Look." She began. "Jack, is it? Your personal safety is exactly why Megatron has requested your presence." She told him.
"Wait, Mega-what?" Jack asked, confused. What kind of name is that?
"You may be in danger because you are one of the few, one of the only who has ever seen us." Steelstrike said seriously.
"Dude! What are you waiting for?!" A voice exclaimed, causing both human and Decepticon to look to where Miko was peaking from the corner. "Go with!"
"Scrap." Steelstrike muttered. Now they had to bring Miko too.
Not long after, Raf was riding inside Quickbolt, while Jack and Miko were riding on Steelstrike. "WHOO!" Miko shouted excitedly.
"Why are we bringing her?" Jack asked, annoyed.
"Rules." Came Steelstrike's answer.
The two vehicles continued toward a large rock structure, which was concerning Jack.
"Hey, wait- WHOA!" He exclaimed, thinking they were going to crash.
But that was not what happened. Instead, the rocks split apart, revealing a large, secret metal door.
"Whoa." Miko said, amazed as the vehicles drove deeper into the facility.
"Cool/Whoa." Jack, Miko, and Raf said as they took in the forms of Shockwave, Starscream, Soundwave, Breakdown, and Knock Out.
The vehicles came to a halt, allowing the children to depart, thus allowing Quickbolt and Steelstrike to transform into robot mode.
"I thought there were only two humans?" Shockwave questioned, since he was sure he had heard right.
"Haven't you heard? They multiply." Steelstrike replied as if it was obvious before moving away from the humans.
"I'm Raf." Raf introduced himself to the Decepticons.
"I'm Miko. Who are you?" Miko said excitedly as she ran up to Breakdown.
"Breakdown." The Stunticon answered hesitantly.
Miko gasped. "Are you a car? I bet you're a truck. A monster truck! Do you like heavy metal? How much do you weigh? Ever use a wrecking ball for a punching bag?" She left no room for answers, causing Breakdown to form a nervous look on his face, something that didn't go unnoticed by Knock Out. The Decepticon medic chuckled, it wasn't often Breakdown had that kind of look.
"So, if you guys are robots, who made you?" Raf asked, very curious.
"Oh, please!" Starscream scoffed, slightly offended by the question.
The three kids heard heavy footsteps from behind. Turning around, they were greeted by the towering form of Megatron. But despite his menacing appearance, he looked down at them with a soft and gentle look.
"We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron, also known as Decepticons. Do not let our name frighten you. It may sound ominous, but it symbolizes our goal; to ensure freedom for all lifeforms." Megatron explained.
"Why are you here?" Jack asked.
"To defend your world from the Destructicons." Megatron answered.
"The jokers that tried to bump us off yesterday." Steelstrike clarified.
"Okay, why are they here?" Jack questioned, wanting to know more.
Megatron knelt down to them. "A fair question, Jack. They are here because our home world is uninhabitable, devastated by eons of civil war."
"Why were you fighting a war?" Raf inquired.
"Mostly over control of our world's supply of energon, the lifeblood of all cybertronians, Decepticon and Destructicon alike. The warfare was fierce, and endured for centuries. In the beginning, I fought alongside one whom I considered a sister. But in war, ideals can be corrupted. And it was thus… that Shadowsaber lost her way." Megatron explained as memories flooded his head.
Miko yawned. "Is there gonna be a quiz?"
"So, what does Shadowsaber… or any of this, have to do with us?" Jack asked, utterly confused.
"Shadowsaber has not been seen or heard from in quite some time." Megatron began grimly. "But if her return is imminent, as I suspect, it could be catastrophic."
The Prowler
Within the command bridge of the Destructicon warship, Betawave was walking toward Steeljaw, the former displaying frequency wavelengths on his visor, originating from deep space. It could only mean one thing.
Her.
"Those transmissions are emanating from deep space." Steeljaw said as he turned around to face the brother of Soundwave. "I would hate to waste the energon… unless you are absolutely sure." He said, emphasizing sure. Betawave's response was a nod.
"Very well." Steeljaw conceded. "Then lock onto transmission coordinates and activate the space bridge." The wolf like Destructicon commanded.
High in Earth's orbit, a massive, jagged, circular object, the Destructicon space bridge activated, and out came a cybertronian jet similar to Megatron. But there were crucial differences, such as the design and the color is blood red.
The jet transformed, revealing a tall, bulky femme.
Shadowsaber. Leader of the Destructicons and nemesis of Megatron.
"DESTRUCTICONS… I HAVE RETURNED!" She bellowed in triumphant.
She had a sinister plan in the works, one that would spell doom for not only her enemies, but all of Earth.
Thank you for reading! Until next time, have an awesome day! :)
