Wow, I am ssssoooo late! Well, better late than never, right? The reason why this chapter took so long was because...well, it was so long. In fact, I splitted it into two chapters, cause I just wanted this chapter done! Also, this chapter is done only in TFP view. So, chapter four is halfway done and it's in the Clone Wars' view. I hope that this chappie was worth the wait.
P.S. I'm ssssoooo sorry! :(
Darth-Megatron-Vader-Jr-Jr: You're not forgiven!
Within a cave of the Carpathian Mountains, a tall scarred Decepticon with dark gray armor, Megatron, observed an object. Standing at his side was a black spider-like femme named Airachnid, who watched Knock Out, a sleek red medic, examine a strange artifact. Pyramid in shape, the object was about the size of an Earthen vehicle. Upon it's charcoal metalic sides were etchings of three unique languages. The Megatron recognized one of the languages as ancient Cybertronian. The other two alphabets, however, were unknown to the former gladiator. Yet, the malicious Decepticon leader cared little about the lettering of the relic. He wanted to know its abilities. He wanted to know its potential. He wanted to know its powers.
Still musing, Megatron's thoughts were interrupted when Knock Out cleared his voice box. "Lord Megatron," he said with a heavy accent, "Though the relic seemed to accept the power from the Nemisis properly, it does not seem to...um, work."
Towering over his fellow Cybertronian, Megatron roared, "What do you mean it did not work, Knock Out?"
The short Cybertronian flinched at his master's outrage. "It seems, Lord Megatron, that the artifact needs to be elsewhere to function."
The former gladiator of Karon glared at the decetiful doctor. Grinding his shark-like teeth, Megatron growled, "Then, take it elsewhere!"
Cringing at the sound of Megatron's voice, Knock Out muttered into his comlink, "Um, Soundwave, would you be kind enough to open the groundbridge? Lord Megatron wants the relic removed from this site. And, would you mind sending Breakdown down along with some Vehicons? This thing is heavier than it looks."
As the green swirl appeared, the strange femme purred, "I hope this artifact does prove to be worthwhile. It would seem to be a waste that we'd shut down the shields in order to power an artifact that is useless."
Megatron raised an eyebrow. "Are you questioning my judgement, Airachnid?"
Shaking her horned head, Airachnid replied, "Not at all, Lord Megatron. I am merely curious about the autheticy of Soundwave's report."
The Decepticon warrior narrowed his optics at Airachnid. Instead of erupting in anger, he hissed, "How interesting..."
Suddenly, the sound of metal crushing and gun blasting echoed throughout the cave. Recognizing the source of the sound, Airachnid gasped. "Autobots!"
A cruel smile crept onto Megatron's lips. "Optimus never disappoints."
Rounding the corner, the Autobots stormed into the area. With his blaster and sword ready, Optimus Prime stated, "Megatron! I cannot allow you to leave with that relic."
As he was yet speaking, Dreadwing with a group of Vehicons raced behind Team Prime. Bursting through the groundbridge was Breakdown with a team of Decepticons. Forming a defensive circle, the Autobots realized how outnumbered and trapped they were. "Oh, scrap," muttered Bulkhead.
Triumph in his eyes, the Decepticon leader snarled, "On the contrary, Optimus; it is I who cannot allow you to leave with this relic."
With a roar, the Decepticons charged at the Autobots. Baring her blades, Acree raced towards Airachnid. Airachnid, spraying her web at her archenemy, smirked, "How nice to see you again, Arcee! So tell me, how is that human of yours doing? Is he faring better than your last partenters?" Arcee replied with a yell and a kick to the liutenent's face, spirling her to the wall.
Meanwhile, Bumblebee stood in front of Dreadwing. Aiming his large gun, Dreadwing snarled, "Out of my way, scout! You're no match for a Decepticon warrior!"
Bumblebee replied by shooting at the enraged twin. Dodging the flares, Dreadwing growled, "So be it, scout", as he blasted at the yellow camaro.
Cornered, Bulkhead watched Breakdown and Knockout with a team of Vehicons smirk as they advanced towards him. Glancing left and right, Bulkhead grumbled, "Oh scrap...oh scrap, oh-scrap-oh-scrap-oh-scrap!" Suddenly, a bomb exploded, destroying several Cons and slamming Knockout into the wall. "Hey!" snapped the doctor, "I just had that waxed!"
"Can it, Con,"grunted a white and green Autobot.
"Wheeljack!" cried Bulkhead with glee as he punched Breakdown, "Ya ol'wrecker! What brings you here?"
Slicing several Decepticons with his two kataras, Wheeljack replied, "Oh, the same old; saw that the Cons' cloaking device was down, so I flew the Jackhammer on over here to see what sort damage I could do."
Bulkhead chuckled. "Same ol'Jackie!"
Preoccupied with a squad of Decepticons, Optimus punched and slashed through the enemy lines, unaware that Megatron was approaching. Raising his dark blade, Megatron swung his arm down in a killing stroke. Before he could dispose Prime, the artifact shot a silver magnetic surge, tossing the Cybertronians in every direction. Regaining his balance, Megatron roared, "Knock Out! What is going on?"
From beneath some rock rubble, Knock Out moaned, "Oh, my paint..."
"Knock Out!"
"Huh? Oh yes. Uh...I don't know, my liege. Perhaps the relic just needed some space."
Megatron glared at the vain doctor. Before he could reply, Optimus raced towards the artifact. With a sneer of contempt, Megatron charged at his enemy. Noting the danger, Prime turned away from the relic and advanced towards Megatron. The Autobot blocked the Decepticon's blows, with his sword as his hand. While the two titans fought, a group of Vehicons slipped past the duel. They dragged the pyramid into the ground bridge. Noticing their escape,
Acree yelled in her comlink, "The Cons are bringing the relic aboard the Nemesis. I am in pursuit."
Upon hearing this, Ratchet objected. "Arcee, you can't possibly think that you can storm a warship by yourself?"
Arcee sighed as she raced towards the Decepticon ground bridge. "What would you have me do, Ratchet? Wait for the Cons to unleash it's power?"
"No," stammered the medic, "But you should wait for the rest of the team."
Arcee rolled her optics and transformed into a motorcycle. "Sorry, Ratchet. There's no time," she replied as she zoomed across the cave.
"Arcee," grunted Bulkhead into his com as he smashed heads, "I must agree with doc. You'll be scrap-metal in five minutes flat."
"Than, I'll make it out in four," snapped Arcee, driving into the groundbridge.
"Arcee!" cried the former Wrecker, "You can't...ah, scrap."
Slicing a Vehicon, Wheeljack raised a metallic eyebrow. "Your girlfriend sure is stubborn."
Bulkhead sighed. "Yeah...Wait, what?"
Meanwhile, back at headquarters, Ratchet was desperately striving to obtain help for Arcee. "Bumblebee," said Ratchet, "Are you able to assist Arcee?"
Bumblebee replied with a bunch of whirs and beeps as he dodged Dreadwing, bolting into the groundbridge. With a sigh of relief, Ratchet muttered, "I hope everything goes alright."
