Chapter 2: Arise
Decepticon Warship: Knock-outs lab.
"You want me to what?!" Knock-Out's eyes widen in shock at what he thought he heard Megatron say. Megatron growled, "Do it Doctor or this bot won't be the only one on the experiment table!" Knock-Out gulped, "Of course Lord Megatron." Knock-Out took the dark energon from Megatrons hand, "I want complete control over this robot and the only way to do that is through dark energon." Knock-Out turned to Megatron, " Or i could create a remote acees point where we can control Nemisis here through remote and..." Megtraon looked at Knock-Out, "Your right dark energon is more fun." Knock-out laughed nervously as he inserted the dark energon where a normal cybertronians spark would be. The body shook as a purple glow illumianted the room for a moment. Megatron smiled, " i feel it." Knock-Out stood back, no way he was going to let this terracon stratch his finish. "Arise my new weapon!" Nemisis Prime arose off the table, his eye shown purple as the dark energon took control. "I live to serve you Lord Megatron." Knock-Out's mouth dropped, it sounded exactly like Optimus! "is it alive? like truly alive?" Knock-Out hide behind Megatron, "Indeed I am alive and my one mission is too destroy Optimus Prime!"
Autobot base:
Everyone sat or stood in silence as Ratchet worked, the silence was broken by Jacks cellphone ring, "Hello?" "Oh Hi Mom" "No." "No Mom i dont want you on the road right now, we can open a bridge from the hosptial to here." "because ill tell you when you get here" "Mom please just trust me on this ok?" Jack looked to Ratchet and signaled with his eyes to the ground bridge, Ratchet recieved it and walked to the ground bridge, "look mom ratchets at the ground bridge we will open one in the alley right next the hospital" "yes you can drive the car through if you want." "Love you" Jack hung up the phone, as the ground bridge spun to life. Everyone was looking at him, "What my mom is independent she doesnt listen well." June car came through the bridge just as the monitors sounded an alert. Bumblebee jumped and beeped, **What the heck?** Ratchet ran to the screen, Arcee was the first to notice Ratchets shoulders slump. "Whats wrong Ratchet?", "the computer has picked up a large dark energon signal it is headed toward site were we found Nemisis Prime." Everyone froze, "Megatron?" Bulkhead almost asked in a whisper, "Possibly" Ratchet replied. Everyone studied the screen for a moment before the monitor sounded again with the tone of an imcoming call. Ratchet answered it, "This is Autobot Outpost Omega One, identify yourself." "Optimus been well?, I have a surprise for you my old friend, he is headed to the location where you first met." Megatron laughed and hung up. "Ratchet open a ground bridge we must investigate." The grond bridge spun to life, "Hold On just on minute!" Junes voice echoed threw the silo, "What on earth is going on? Somebody better explain, Jackson!" Junes hands rested on her hips, her eyebrows were furrowed. "Mom chill out, I can explain whats happening." Junes facial relaxed, "fine then tell me." The autobots all looked at each other, "Autbots transform and roll out!" Optimus's voice boomed through the silo.
Previous MECH Location:
The autobots arrived at the location of the dark energon signal, nothing was there or nothing appeared to be there. "well where is he?" Acree asked as her gun lite blue with energon ready to fire. "Keep yourselfs on alert autobots, if this is Nemisis Prime with Megatron at the control he will be even more dangerous." Optimus cautioned them, "Should we fan out?" Bulkhead asked. "No!" Optimus sharply said, "Stay together." Optimus walked ahead leading them, he would not show it but Optimus was scared the last time we came face to face with Nemisis it end not well. A sound of scrapping metal came from the shadows as a figure stepped out dragging his sword along the silo. "We meet again Prime." Optimus's eyes widen there stood nemisis prime, "Megatron, wil you not face me yourself?" Nemisis Prime laughed, "You think that Lord Megatron is commading me through a remote? Pathetic, I am fully alive! Lord Megatron brought me to life with a spark of Dark Energon!" Optimus stepped back, "by the all allspark."
The Autobot all took to a defensive stance, "Be ready." Optimus told them. Nemisis Prime laughed, "You pathetic Autobots, Megatron told me everything that happened when I was under the control of humans, if i bested you then I will certainly kill you now!" Nemisis Prime lunged forward with blades drawn, his first lung was at Optimus. "Autobots take cover!" The Autobots dove behind silos and other bulidings in the area for cover, Nemisis watched, "The others are of no concern to me Prime I only want you!" Optimus breathed deeply, the others were in risk because of him. If Nemisis wanted him thats who he was going to get, stepping from the shadows Optimus called "Nemisis! If you want me then here I am, leave the others out of this." Optimus spoke calmly, but firm. "Nemisis? I like that and if you want them spared you will face me alone!" Optimus slowly walked toward his oppenant still not used to hearing his voice from another bot.
The two bots collided swords sending sparks flying everywhere as the sound of clanging metal sounded. The others watched from the shadows wanting to engage but under the order of Optimus they staid hidden. Optimus fought hard but felt the strength of Nemesis matching his own, Nemesis fought hard pushing Optimus to his limits. "You are weak Prime" Nemesis said laughing. Optimus stumbled back, "You will not prevail Nemesis!" Optimus lunged forward missing Nemesis but recoiling and shoving is blade through Nemesis's side. Nemesis gasped and stumbled back, Optimus took a step back, breathing heavily. Suddenly Nemesis began to come back up into a standing position, laughing Nemesis spread his arms out and looked at Optimus, "Dark energon flows through me Prime, I am indestructable!" Optimus looked stunned but snapped back quickliy as Nemesis an toward him, Optimus redrew his blade and went to swing Nemesis ducked the swing and plunged forward planting his blade in Optimus. Optimus's eyes widen as Nemesis gave a little twist to the blade. "Optimus NO!" Arcee's scream came from the shadows.
