AN: To the best of my knowledge there has never been a Fantastic Four crossover with Transformers Prime; so it pleases me to be the first. The plot of this story is set a year and half in the future after the Autobots left Earth. I based the story off of the 2005 Fantastic Four movie. Now let's jump into it.
Chapter 1: Fantastic changes
Jasper, Navada, Darby residents
"Jack, hurry up or we're going to be late. " June said as she finished packing her bags. "I'm coming, just give me a minute." Jack replied as he got the rest of his stuff secured in a suitcase. When he was all done he grabbed his luggage and made his way downstairs. "Do you have everything you need?" June asked wanting to make sure he was prepared for their trip. "Yes, and before you ask I already did a check and everything's there." Jack could tell that his mom was a little up in arms about this whole situation. But he also knew that her concerns were well warranted. "Well I'm sorry; it's just that it's not everyday that you go vacationing on another planet. When I was your age I spent most of my spring breaks at home with my family." "It's okay mom, I'm nervous too. I'll admit I'm a little excited; but you'd have to be crazy to not be at least a little bit worried. I still don't know how Miko got the Autobots to agree to this; I mean I was right there and I don't get it."
Flashback, one week ago
It had been a little over a year since the Autobots returned to Cybertron, and bit by bit the people who were involved were slowly adjusting to their new lives. Miko and her friends were getting used to the idea of being consultants for the government on anything having to do with Cybertron and it's citizens. After the Autobots left Agent Fowler decided to make them consultants until they were old enough to become official agents of the government. Every day after school they would get together and hang out for a while, as Well as occasionally reminisce about all the fun adventures they had with the Autobots. Ratchet even managed to set up a comm link between Earth and Cybertron before he left for home; that way they could both call each other whenever they pleased. So most of their days were spent at Hanger E, talking to the Autobots through the comm link. "Awe, come on Ratchet, when do we get to see you guys again?" Miko whined about not being able to see the Autobots anymore. "Miko we've been over this already, aside from wanting to see you again, there's really no reason for us to return to Earth." Ratchet said while he was on the other line. "I know, it's just, I really miss Bulkhead. And I know that Jack and Raf miss Arcee and Bumblebee." "I know you miss them; but the fact remains that we can't just drop everything to come and visit you." Ratchet exclaimed over the other end of the comm link.
"Who are you talking to Ratchet?" Arcee asked as she and the other Autobots made their way over to the communications terminal. "Our friends on Earth" Ratchet answered. The moment those words left his mouth the other Autobots became ecstatic. They all wanted to have a turn to talk to their friends. "One at a time" Ratchet said as he finally gave in to their request. Bulkhead was the first to start talking. "Hey Miko; it's good to hear your voice, I missed you. So how are things going over there?" "Hey Bulk, I missed you too; and pretty well all things considered." Miko said in reply to Bulkhead's question. After waiting patiently for them to finish their conversation; Arcee and Bumblebee asked if Jack or Raf was with Miko, and if they could speak with them. Just then Jack and Raf made their way over to the terminal to talk to their Autobot friends. They started to catch up and talk for a while, until Miko decided to chime in. "So when are you guys coming back?" "Miko, how many times do I have to tell you? There's a lot of work to be done here; we can't just come back." Ratchet said yet again, as he was annoyed by Miko's constant persistence. "The doc's right Miko; even though we miss you guys, it's only been a year, and Cybertron still needs a lot of TLC right now." Bulkhead murmured in an attempt to play pacemaker. "It's just not fair; we haven't seen you guys in over a year. And we've never even been to Cybertron since it was restored." Then an idea started to dawn on Miko.
"If you guys can't come to Earth, then why don't we come to Cybertron? I mean, you learned a little about our planet, but we learned next to nothing about yours. Why can't we take a few days just to explore Cybertron?" Everyone else was blown away by Miko's suggestion. Jack and Raf couldn't believe what she had just asked for. And some of the Autobots were against the idea as well, namely Ratchet and Ultra Magnus. "Absolutely not; we can not afford to waste time chaperoning the humans while they visit." Ultra Magnus responded in an attempt to keep their objective of rebuilding Cybertron their top priority. "Hold on, we might be able to go along with Miko's idea. With Cybertron restored we've got more than enough workforce to finish rebuilding. Some of us could use that time to show our friends around." Arcee said trying to win over Ultra Magnus. Her idea met resistance at first; but then she pointed out that they wouldn't of saved their planet without them. Soon enough, all the Autobots, even Ratchet, were in agreement. Ultra Magnus, realizing he was out numbered, finally gave in. "Very well, they can come; but I trust this won't interfere with your work." All the Autobots nodded their heads in understanding. "So what time would be good for you guys to come over?" Arcee asked wanting to know. "Well spring break's next week, so how about then? Because then we'll be able to spend the next few days with you." Miko said with pride evident in her voice. So the date had been set, and preparations were to be made.
On the ride home, Jack kept thinking about how he was going to explain this to his mother. To say that she was surprised at the revelation that her son would be spending his spring break on another planet, would be an understatement. "Wait, your what?" she asked. "I'm spending spring break on Cybertron with the Autobots. Look it wasn't my idea, I'm just going along with what was suggested." After he took a while to explain things to her, she started to get the message. She knew that her son missed his friends. It also didn't help the situation, that he always wanted to be a astronaut. After thinking things over for a bit, June made her decision. "Well, there's absolutely no way I'm letting you go alone." "What?" he asked in surprise. "If you want to spend your vacation with your friends, that's fine. But if your going to an alien planet; I think there should be at least one adult with you. So I'll take some time off work; and we'll make this a family trip, okay?" "Okay" Jack said with a certain amount of surprise and relief. He never thought his mother would do this for him. It made him happy to know that she knew just how much this ment to him. So plans had been set in motion. All that was left to do was to call their parents, or in Miko's case host parents, and get permission. They all thought it would be alright, once they herd June would be there to supervise. And with that, they all started to get ready.
End: flashback
Army base, Hanger E
As June's car rolled up to the hanger, she and Jack were greeted by the rest of his friends. Once they exchanged pleasantries, Miko and Raf offered to help with their bags. When they got inside, Raf remembered an important issue that he needed to address with them. "I almost forgot, wait here, I'll be right back." Raf walked off to fetch the surprise he had for them. When he returned he handed them all some blue and black suits. "Put these on" he said to them. "What are they?" Jack asked while in a state of wonder. "They're our uniforms; the synthetics act as a second skin. Adapting to your body's individual needs." Miko just stood there with a questioning look on her face. "I think he means that they help regulate the temperature of your body. You know, they keep what's supposed to be cool, cool. But at the same time, they also warm up the cold parts of your body." Jack said doing his best to explain it to Miko. She nodded her head in understanding, now that her unspoken question had been answered. "Exactly, think of them as environment suits. Since we've never been on the planet's surface; I would advise Waring them at all times, just in case. The material is made of self regulating, unstable molecules. Me and Ratchet have been working on the formula for a while now." After Raf was done explaining, they all went to go change into their uniforms. At first Jack was worried that it might not fit, but then as he was putting it on, he realized that the material was extremely stretchy. It adjusted to fit his body like it was the easiest thing in the world. The suit was mainly blue with, black boots, gloves, and a black collar. When he was finished he went to go meet up with the others. "Well, what do you think?" Miko asked. When Jack saw her in that form fitting outfit, it became very hard to keep his composure. "Uh, uh, you look great" Jack said while stuttering, and trying to hide his blush. After that bit of awkwardness was over, they all gathered at the spacebridge. "Alright, if everyone's ready, then I'll just punch in the coordinates and we'll be good to go." Raf said eager to get to Cybertron already. As soon as the spacebridge came to life, they stepped through it and proceeded to make their way to Cybertron.
Cybertron, The well of all sparks
When they stepped out of the portal, June was the first one to speak. "Wow, that's a big hole" she said referring to the well of all sparks. "Yeah, according to the Autobots, it goes all the way to the planet's core. They call this place The well of all sparks because this is where all the sparks on the entire planet come from." Jack did his best to explain the Autobot's version of creation to his mother. By the time he was done explaining, June understood exactly what he ment. As soon as their conversation was brought to a close, the Autobots came to greet their human friends. "You made it, it's so good to see you all again. Uh, what are you guys wearing?" Bumblebee said as he motioned to their suits. "Why, the new uniforms that I..uh I mean, me and Rafael made for them, of course." Ratchet took a minute to tell them why he made them those suits, and why it was so crucial that they keep them on. He told them that with Cybertron's atmosphere restored that they shouldn't have any trouble breathing. However, the suits were only a precaution in case they need help keeping their body temperature under control. "Alright, if we're all finished catching up, then we'll show you to where you'll be staying, and then we can do some exploring." Arcee murmured as she tried to get everyone back on track.
After walking for a while they came to a stop at a tall, shiny building. "Look familiar?" Arcee asked. It was the same building that Megatron had fixed with the Omega lock. "Isn't that?" Miko tried to say but was unable to finish her question. "Yep, the very same building that Megatron restored. We moved in before anyone else could make their claim on it. So now it's kind of our official base." Bulkhead stated as a matter of fact. When Miko was done being blown away by how cool that sounded, they all decided to go inside and check out where they would be staying for the next few days. Jack and June were staying with Arcee in her quarters, Raf was with Bumblebee, and Miko was staying with Bulkhead. When they got all their stuff put away, the Autobots and humans went out to explore Cybertron. While they were walking through the city; every other cybertronian stared at them with amazement. They had never seen humans before; and pretty soon they all started to huddle around them in a crowd. It was at that moment that Jack felt like an animal at the zoo; he knew that everyone's eyes were on him and his friends. "Back off, they're with us" Arcee said. Soon enough they made their way to the heart of the city; where they came across a giant statue of what looked like Optimus Prime.
The humans had been told about what happened to Optimus; about how he gave his life for the survival of his planet. Although that didn't make missing him any easier. "I can't believe that he's really gone" Jack said with sorrow evident in his voice. "He sacrificed himself so that everyone else could live. And what's amazing is that he did it without a moment of hesitation. In my optics, that's what makes him a hero. Actually no, it's more than that, he's not just a hero, he's a legend." Arcee exclaimed without a single bit of doubt in her voice. "Alright, I think that's enough feeling sorry for ourselves for one day. What do you say that we continue with the tour?" As the days went on they saw more and more of Cybertron. They saw the Cybertron hall of records; the very same place that Optimus used to work at. They saw the old gladiator arena; they even saw the acid pits.
When they weren't busy exploring, most of their down time was used to look back on past adventures. Then one day Wheeljack came to them with an offer. He asked them if they would like for him to take them up in a ship; so they could truly see the stars. They tried to point out that his ship was destroyed during the Decepticons invasion of Jasper. But he told them that he had that covered. Soon they arrived at the hanger and saw what looked like a brand new Jack-Hammer. After he explained that he rebuilt it from scratch; they all boarded the ship and were off to see the stars. They did a bit of sight seeing for a while, Wheeljack even showed them Cybertron's moons. Everything was going great, until a blip showed up on the radar. "Uh Wheeljack, what's this blip on the screen mean?" Raf asked a bit worried. "Just a cosmic storm, nothing to worry about" he said. "Just a cosmic storm?" Jack said not sounding at all reassured. "We get them out in space all the time; besides that storm is hours away from us. By the time it gets here we'll be long gone, trust me, everything's going to be alright." Just then a loud rattling noise could be heard all over the ship. "Unless of course, the engines give out" Wheeljack said with annoyance. After that he immediately went to work fixing the ship. At that moment Raf noticed a loud beeping sound on the radar; his eyes filled with dread as he knew what was going to happen. "Guys, the cloud has accelerated, we've got a minute maybe less before it reaches us. And based on those readings I just saw, I'd say it's deadly. So if we can't get those engines fixed soon, then we'll all die." After hearing that they all scurried to help Wheeljack fix the ship. Just as they were finishing up, Jack saw the storm through the ship's window. "Here it comes, BRACE YOURSELVES!" Jack shouted. When the storm hit, it sent the Jack-Hammer hurtling through space. Thinking fast Wheeljack scooped the humans up in his arms; so they wouldn't bang against the walls. As they were bathed in cosmic rays, it felt like they were being torn apart at a molecular level. After the storm passed; everyone had been knocked unconscious.
Earth, Unit E, medical ward
"Wake up, come on, Miko" a familiar voice said as Miko struggled to open her eyes. As soon as her vision cleared up, she could see Jack sitting in a chair beside the bed she was currently resting in. "Welcome back, my friend" Jack said with relief clear in his voice. "Ah, what happened, where are we?" Miko murmured as she placed her hand on her throbbing head. "Well first we were hit by a cosmic storm that knocked everyone unconscious, even Wheeljack was knocked into stasis. Then, I'm not sure how, but my mom was some how able to convince the Autobots to let us seek medical treatment back on Earth. But the Autobots would only agree to it if they were allowed to come and be with us. So now here we are, back on Earth, in the medical facility of Unit E. You've been asleep for three days, and you kinda had us a little bit worried for a moment there. Oh, and Agent Fowler placed us under quarantine until they can determine whether or not the radiation that the cloud hit us with is treatable." Just then Miko started to get up; only for Jack to get up out of his chair and rush to her side. "Easy, let me help you" he said as he helped her to her feet. When she expressed her desire to be out of the hospital gown she was wearing and in her own clothes; Jack walked over to the other side of the room, grabbed her clothes and handed them to her. He turned around and waited for her to finish changing; then when she was done, she made an attempt to start walking on her own only for her legs to start wobbling due to her lack of energy. Luckily Jack managed to catch her before she hit the ground; he helped her walk for a bit until she decided that she was strong enough to do it on her own. After a while when she was able to keep her balance, they went their separate ways.
When Miko was walking through the halls, she crossed paths with Raf. He was wearing hospital scrubs with slippers and a robe. As she walked by him she noticed something stick out about him. "Nice dew, I'm liking the grandpa look" she said as she motioned to his hair, before she walked off. "What?" Raf asked before going to a mirror to check his hair. When he looked at his reflection, he saw a white streak on both sides of his head running down the center of his hair. He brushed it off as a side of the storm, and went to find nurse Darby to see about their test results. When he found her they started to compare notes. He glanced at her clipboard and said "Our blood panels show no signs of radiation, good. We should step up this protocol every-" Raf tried to say but was interrupted. "Every four hours, I know what I'm doing Raf. Another day or so of testing and we'll be free to go. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and meet my son" June said as she took her clipboard back from Raf.
When Jack made it to his room, he started to change into his original clothes. "Whoa, whoa, where do you think you're going?" The nurse asked. "I promised I'd go see my mom, and after that I thought I'd go for a walk or something." "Fine but remember, there are rules here. You can't leave until-" "Until we finish the testing, I know. My mom is a nurse too, you know." As Jack was finishing getting dressed , the nurse shoved a thermometer in his mouth. "Ewe, your hot" she said as she stared at his temperature on the screen. "Um, thank you" he said not really sure how to respond to that. "No, I mean you might have a fever." "Well I feel fine, and I really have to go" he said while giving her back her thermometer and leaving to go meet his mother. She looked at the thermometer and was in shock of what she saw; apparently he had a temperature of 209.
When they were both outside, June asked Jack "How are you feeling?" "Great, how about you?" He questioned as the two embraced in a hug. When they separated June said "Fine thanks for asking. So do you want to talk about what happened?" Jack told her that when the storm hit, he was scared; not just for his safety but also that of his friends. "You herd Raf, that storm was deadly, we all could have died. And maybe all I had to do to stop it was to say no to the ride that Wheeljack offed us." "Jack, it was a freak of nature, nobody could have possibly seen it coming, especially you, let it go." When they were done speaking, June noticed that Miko was only a few yards away from them, just out of ear shot. "You know, when you live through something like this it makes you feel glad that you got the right kind of person in your life." June said to Jack. "Yeah, you and Fowler are really great together; I know I had a problem with it at first but I'm really glad that he makes you happy." "I'm not talking about Bill. You know, just because things didn't work out with Sierra; that doesn't mean you can't find love in someone else." She said while gesturing to Miko. Jack caught on to what she was getting at an simply said "What?" "Jack, I've seen the way you look at her. Plus when she was in a coma any one of us could have stayed with her; but you choose to remain by her side" June said. "Come on, in a little over a year her student visa will expire, she'll move back to Tokyo, and I'll probably never see her again." "But isn't that her decision?" "Mom, things will work out for the best, trust me" he said just before he gave her a pat on the back and left. When he left June spent some time thinking about the situation. "Do I have to do everything myself?"
Arcee managed to convince Jack into taking a ride with her to clear his head. He told her he would but that he had to get back soon because his mom invited him to dinner. They drove for a while before coming to a stop at a cliff that overlooked what seemed like all of the desert. As they both looked out at the horizon, Arcee started to notice something. "Jack, your on fire" she murmured. "Huh?" He said not being sure what she meant. "YOUR ON FIRE, LOOK!" Jack looked down and saw that his clothes were burning; as he struggled to put them out he accidentally stepped to close to the edge and fell off. "NO!" Arcee screamed in vain as she tried to catch him. As he fell, the flames only seemed to get stronger, until eventually his whole body was engulfed in fire. He flew through the air and landed right in the sand. When Arcee got to the bottom of the cliff see saw Jack sticking out of the sand with the top half of his body completely exposed. After thinking for a moment, Jack finally spoke up and said "Can you give me a hand in getting back to base?" Arcee shrugged and then proceeded to dig him out of the sand. After they got back to the base Jack ran to his room while covering his privet area with his helmet. After he got cleaned up, he got dressed and went off to find the others. He found Miko and his mom in the newly rebuilt mess hall, and was about to tell them what had happened to him. "Jack, what are you doing here?" June asked. At that point Jack got confused; didn't she invite him to dinner? "I thought that-" Jack said unable to find the right words in order to finish his sentence. "Great, well maybe you could join us" June said.
As they walked over and sat down at the table; it was at that moment that Jack finally realized what his mother was trying to do. She was trying to set him and Miko up, while she played wingman. When Raf showed up to eat with them she thought that her plan was ruined. But to her surprise things still went smoothly between Jack and Miko; despite the fact that they weren't alone together. During the course of the meal, Jack and Miko started talking to each other and laughing in joy over past experiences. Everything was going so well until Miko started to get these weird stomach pains. "Are you alright?" Jack asked. "Yeah, it was probably just something I ate, I think I need to go lay down." After she left Jack decided to speak to his mother. "Look, I know what your trying to do but it's just not going to happen. Miko's got a life to live after she leaves Jasper, and I don't want to get in the way of that." "Oh my gosh, how did I ever raise such a boy scout like you. You never got it, and you never will; unless it's explained to you by Optimus Prime himself." Jack didn't understand why his mom was so mad; all through her rant all he could think about was "What could I have possibly said that would upset her this much?" "You can help save the world, but you can't tell the girl you like that you like her. Take it from me, sometimes it's just nice to be wanted, to be seen and heard" she said while her body started to turn invisible. But Jack and Raf didn't notice, because they weren't looking. "Look at me" she said to them. When they looked back at her they were both in shock by what they saw. "We can't" Jack responded. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T, LOOK AT ME!" "Mrs. Darby, look at your hands" Raf said while pointing at her. When she looked at herself she was so afraid that she accidentally knocked her wine glass off the table. When Raf reached to catch it they were all surprised to see how far his arm had stretched. Then he slowly brought his arm back and set the glass on the table. After Jack's mom became visible again, he remembered what he originally came there to tell them. "Oh that reminds me, you guys are never going to believe what happened to me today" he said like it was the most casual thing in the world.
After all the weirdness at the table was done, they decided that they should go find Miko. Miko on the other hand, wasn't doing so well herself. While she was laying in bed the pain only seemed to get worse. She started to sweat uncontrollably, and she could also hear what seemed like the faint sound of what she thought was her bed creaking. Sooner or later the bed finally gave way and broke, due to her increasing body mass. As the others were walking through the halls, Raf and June were trying to figure out what had caused all of this. "It must be the storm cloud, I mean it's completely altered our DNA" June suggested. "Let's not jump to any conclusions, we need a massive amount of evidence before we can confirm that" Raf responded. As they were talking Jack got an idea, he started snapping his fingers and then he said "Hey guys, check this out." Every time they saw Jack snap his fingers a little flame appeared. When he snapped them for the last time the flame disappeared, and he said "Now picture that, but everywhere, it was everywhere, WHAT?" He shouted that last part as he gestured to his body. Raf finally gave up and said "The cloud has fundamentally altered our DNA." "Ah man, well how bad is that? Because for a brief moment I think I was flying" Jack stated. When they finally got to Miko's room, the door had been locked. As June tried to figure out what the unlock code was, Raf had gotten an idea. He got down on his knees and placed his hand under the door; in a matter of seconds he was stretching to reach the lock. When it was over he brought his hand back from under the door, and Jack said "Okay, that was useful, a little gross, but useful." Then a loud noise could be herd from the other side of the door; they rushed inside and saw a huge hole in the wall, but Miko was nowhere to be found. After a few seconds Agent Fowler showed up demanding answers. They explained that Miko did this, and that she had some sort of reaction to the storm. After they explaining that it had different side effects on them all, Fowler urged them to find Miko, and then he left. "Does anybody know where she's going?" Raf asked. Jack noticed a picture of Miko and her parents laying on the floor, he let out a sigh before he answered. "She's going home."
Tokyo, Japan
Miko went through the spacebridge, and was now back home in Japan. At first she thought that her new found strength was cool; but when she looked in the mirror, she was horrified by what she saw. So she decided that she needed to seek out the comfort and support of her family. But on the way to the spacebridge she frightened a lot of people. So when she got to Japan she thought that it would be a good idea to try and blend in. She broke into a clothing store to find something that would cover up her skin; but the only thing that would fit her was from the men's big and tall section. She picked out some black pants, a black tank top, and a tan trench coat with a hat to complete the lock; but no shoes would fit her so she had to go bare foot. After she got dressed she went straight to her parents house. When she got to the front door she was about to use the intercom, only to find out that the buttons were to small. Looking back she realized that it had been a miracle that she was even able to operate the spacebridge properly. "Awe, you got to be kidding me, alright" she said as she attempted to push the tiny buttons. After some trial and error she finally hit the right button. "Mom, dad, are you there?" She asked. "Miko, is that you, when did you get home sweetheart?" Mrs. Nakadai said. "Mom, can you and dad meet me out front, I really need to talk to you." "Out front, why, is everything okay?" "Look if you and dad could just meet me outside, I'll explain everything, okay?" After all of that was said, her parents agreed to meet her outside. When they got across the street, they noticed someone lurking in the shadows. "Over here, don't come any closer, what I have to show you may come as a bit of a shock. Mom, dad, remember when you used to say that I'd always be your little girl, no matter what." "Yes, Miko what's going on, your scaring us" her mother said. Miko stepped out of the shadows and took off her hat to revile her new look. She still had her normal hair style, but her skin was completely covered by orange rocks. "Oh my god" Mrs. Nakadai said while backing away. "Mom, dad, it's me, it's still me. I was just in an accident, let me explain" she said while reaching out to them. "NO, STAY AWAY!" Mrs. Nakadai yelled as she ran back to the house, with her husband not far behind. "MOM, DAD!" Miko yelled out. After a moment of thought, Miko decided to put her hat back on and leave.
Rainbow bridge, Tokyo
Jack, Raf and June were finally dressed in their original clothes, and were currently riding in a cab that was driving across the Rainbow bridge of Tokyo. They were on their way to the Nakadai house, where they were hoping was the place that they would find Miko. On another part of the bridge, Miko could be seen sitting on the edge that overlooks the water. She had ditched the hat and trench coat, and was now only wearing her black pants and tank top. As she sat there she started to contemplate everything that just happened. "Oh come on guys, a few days on Cybertron, it'll be great. Trust me, what's the worst that could happen" Miko said as she remembered the same words that she used on everyone else to convince them to go on the trip with her. Just then a pigeon landed on her shoulder "Hey little guy, your not afraid of me, are you?" When the bird flew away it left it's droppings all over her shoulder. "Perfect, thanks" she said sarcastically as she wiped off her shoulder. At that moment she noticed a man wearing a nice suit and holding a briefcase, preparing to jump off the bridge. The briefcase fell into the water, but before the man could jump Miko decided to speak up. "Hey" she said surprising the man. "You think you got problems, you take a good look pal, how bad could it be right? Uh, I don't think you want to" she said the last part in order to prevent him from accidentally walking off the side of the bridge. Miko let out a sigh of annoyance and said "Ok pal. No don't go up there, I said stop." She murmured in a vain attempt to keep him from walking into oncoming traffic. But regardless the man fell into the line of traffic; forcing Miko to jump down and save him. Just then a truck headed straight for them; thinking fast Miko tackled the truck with all her might, stopping the truck in its path. "Come here" she said as she pulled the man out of the way of a speeding car. When the man got to his feet he started to panic. "Calm down, you want to be scared, FINE!" Miko shouted that last part knowing full well that he'd never relax; then he got even more frightened and ran away.
After Miko wrecked the truck it caused a traffic jam. Jack and the others got out of the cab and tried to proceed on foot; only to be stopped by the emergency services personnel. "What now?" June asked. As much as Jack hated to say it, he had to "We're not going to get past these guys, but you could" he said to his mom. Miko ripped the door off the truck so she could help the driver. She apologized for wrecking his truck and proceeded to get him out of the truck; only to find out that he was stuck to his seat. Back with the others, June was becoming invisible again. "Mrs. Darby, your clothes, lose them" Raf said. Although Jack didn't like what he was seeing, he knew it had to be done; unfortunately when she stripped down to her underwear her invisibility wore off. As soon as she noticed this she tried to cover herself up. "Wow, have you been hitting the gym?" Jack asked. "Shut up" she said.
Miko ripped the seat right out of the truck, taking the driver with it. But when the police arrived they told her to put the man in the seat down on the ground. She hesitated for a moment, but eventually complied. The situation with Jack and the others wasn't getting any better either. "ANYMORE BRIGHT IDEAS, WHY DON'T YOU STRIP DOWN AND HAVE A HUNDRED PEOPLE STARE AT YOU!" June yelled at both Jack and Raf. "Mom" he said in order to get her attention; after half a second she understood what he was getting at, she had become invisible again. After she stripped off the rest of her clothes, she made her way through the crowd; then Jack picked up his mom's clothes, and he and Raf went to go find their friends. When Miko finally put the driver down, she backed away slowly; but when a electrical circuit blew up she used the distraction to make a break for it. Unfortunately a cop managed to get a shot off, and nicked her in the shoulder, but she didn't seem to notice.
"I still can't believe you made me do that" June stated. "We got through didn't we? Let's just find Miko" Jack responded. They searched for a little bit, but when they found her they were surprised to see the new her. While Jack looked off into the distance, he saw a little girl who was looking for her mom; and when he saw a propane tank explode he didn't hesitate to jump into action. He got in between her and the blast, in an attempt to shield the girl from the flames, and he succeeded. The explosion was so strong that it caused a speeding fire truck to swerve off the bridge, and dangle from the edge. As the explosion reached June she put her hands up to cover her face; only to find out that she had created a force field around the flames. With a great big push she forced the flames to dissipate, and then lowered her hands in exhaustion. As the fire truck started to slip, Miko grabbed it and pulled with all her strength while saying "No you don't." But then one of the firefighters who was holding on to the truck fell, he fell until he suddenly stopped; when he looked up he saw that a young boy had stretched to great lengths to catch him. "I got you" Raf said as he pulled him to safety. After much great effort, Miko was finally able to pull the truck back on to the bridge, and then she let go to take a well deserved breather.
The police wanted to arrest her; but after hearing the crowd cheer for her, they lower their weapons and left her alone. She looked around for a bit, and then spotted her parents in the crowd. She walked towards them and stopped only a few feet away from them. Her mother with tears in her eyes, reached into her pocket and pulled out a picture that had all three of them together on it. After she placed the picture on the ground, both of her parents left. When they were gone Miko tried to pick up the picture of her and her family; but she failed miserably every time. She had just about given up, until Jack picked it up and handed it to her. After they both rose to their feet Jack decided to tell her exactly how he was feeling at that moment. "I promise you, that we will do everything in our power, until there is not a solution left to be found. Your going to be Miko again. And I swear to you, that you are not alone in this, you will never be alone." Jack said to Miko with all the compassion and honesty that he could muster up.
At this point Jack and his friends were in a big tent that the police and firefighters set up for them; they were currently getting checked for any injuries that they may have. While this was happening all Miko could do was stare at the picture that her parents left behind, she still couldn't believe that they would just leave her like that, their only child. Then a man came in to speak to Jack; but he spoke in Japanese so he couldn't understand him. "I'm sorry, I don't speak Japanese" Jack said. "He says that there are people outside that want to talk to us" Miko translated. "We're not going public with this. We're civilians not celebrities" Jack stated. The man walked over and turned on the tv to show them what was going on outside. There was a news report with strange words going across the screen, Miko told them that the words ment The Fantastic Four. Even though Jack didn't want to go out there, he knew that they couldn't hide from the people and their questions forever. So they all put it to a vote and decided to go talk to those people.
When they approached the reporters, the same man from the tent asked them all a question. Everyone looked to Miko to interpret what he just said. "He wants to know which one of us is the leader" Miko said. "Well Raf's the smartest, so maybe it should be him" Jack said. The man just chuckled and shook his head. "He says he doesn't believe you" Miko murmured. "Yeah, I got that part" Jack responded. Just then Miko gave Jack a gentle nudge that caused him to take a step forward. After a moment of hesitation, Jack accepted his new role as leader, and prepared to answer any questions. The man said one last thing that Miko translated. "He said your up" she murmured. Jack stepped up to the cameras and said "Uh, during our trip to outer space, we were exposed to what was yet to be identified as radioactive energy." After that a hundred more questions were asked, some ranging from how their powers work, and others to why Miko looks the way she does. "We do not know much more than you do at this point. And to answer your other questions, Miko Nakadai is a great person, and she doesn't deserve any of the bad things that have happened to her so far, and I'm proud to call her my friend. Look, we went up into space to explore the stars, to go on the journey of a lifetime. Well now this is our new journey to take, and our lives on the line. Thank you, no more questions." When he was finished, Miko felt truly touched by all that he said. "Alright guys, let's go home" Jack murmured. He reached into his pocket to get his phone, and diled the number for the base. "Ratchet, we found her; can you give us a bridge?" As soon as he hung up the phone, a spacebridge appeared to take them back to base. Everyone there was blown away by what they saw. They saw them step into a blue and green portal and disappear without a trace.
Sorry if I've been out of the game for a little bit. But this chapter took a while, and it was a pain in the butt to type. And I know that this story might get confusing; but if someone else thinks that they can do a better Transformers Prime & Fantastic Four crossover, then I say more power to them. Because again; I'm new to fanfiction, and I'm still not quite sure what I'm doing. I just liked the idea l had for this story, and I really wanted to try it. Anyway I don't own Transformers Prime or Fantastic Four, just the idea to cross them over. Also for those of you not native to Japan, don't worry I've done the research, and it turns out that the Rainbow bridge is actually a real thing. And remember STAY AWESOME!
