Me: Hey bitches!
Henry: So how was your week, AK?
Me: Oh not bad. I went skiing, had some fun with my nephew, and someone from the University of Minnesota asked me to help her out with a magazine article.
Trevor: Minnesota?
Violet: I thought you lived in Fresno.
Me: I do. She sent me a private message and I responded to help her out.
Tai: What was the article on?
Me: She said it was about how people find enjoyment in writing fan fiction.
Rika: Really?
Me: Really.
Patamon: What did you write for an answer?
Me: That's not important. What's important now is that I've finally got chapter four up. It took me a little longer than usual to start it up because I have had a bit of writers block. But now here it is. I don't own the Incredibles, Transformers, American Dad, Digimon Adventure, Digimon Tamers, or Futurama. Trevor Bauer and Takamon I do own.
Trevor: And we still don't like that fact.
Takamon: It makes us sound like house pets.
Trevor: So if any comments are made about that,
Takamon:…you can expect the two of us to break into your house in the middle of the night and smother you with a pillow while you sleep.
Trevor: Damn straight.
Takato: Dear god! You would seriously do that?!
Takamon: You bet your ass we would!
Trevor: Why? Are saying we can't defend our dignity?
Takato: Um, no. Do whatever you want. Just don't kill me.
Me: Of for god's sake. What am I going to do with you two? You guys enjoy chapter four.
The AutoKnights V: When Many Worlds Collide
Chapter 4: Plans
(AutoKnight Base; 7:50 PM)
A white space bridge was opened up right in the living room and Takamon walked through it. When the bridge closed, Takamon saw that the humans and his two Digimon friends were all looking at him.
"Where've you been?" Tai asked.
"Just out and about." Takamon said as he sat down on the couch between Trevor and Tai.
"How does the place look at night?" Steve asked.
"Not bad. It's pretty." Takamon said. "Anything happen here?"
"Not much. For me Japanese TV doesn't make any sense at all." Fry said.
"This coming from the guy who spent years in the next millennium." TK said.
"Hey even in the future Japanese TV was fucked up to me. I just didn't get it at all." Fry said.
"Well in our defense Fry, American TV doesn't really make sense to some of us here." Gatomon said.
"And yet you speak English like almost everyone in America does." Fry retorted.
Gatomon went silent there.
"Hey we may speak English but that doesn't matter. You think our shows our weird we think yours are too. But we don't complain do we?" Patamon said.
"You have a point." Fry said.
"Thank you." Patamon said.
Gatomon smiled and kissed Patamon. And then another voice from all around talked.
"Hey guys," Teletraan said. "all of you come down here now."
They all looked up at the ceiling.
"What's going on Teletraan?" Kari asked.
"I found something that you guys might wanna see." Teletraan said.
They all got up and then made their way to Teletraan's chamber. They went down the elevator and stood in front of the giant screen. It turned itself on.
"What'd ya find, Teletraan?" Steve asked.
"Signs of trouble." Teletraan said as he brought up Tokyo's radar layout. "The Sky Spy that was sent up earlier found something."
"What is it?" Takamon asked.
"Some kind of seismic energy radiation. Very similar to the energy signatures on most Cybertronians." Teletraan said.
"So you found a Decepticon?" TK asked.
"I'm not sure. The seismic activity was there for about a minute and then it just vanished." Teletraan said.
"Do you remember where it came from?" Violet asked.
"I think so." Teletraan said.
"Well then do you think you can give us a visual image of the place?" Violet asked.
"I'll try." Teletraan said.
Teletraan then made crosshairs appear on his screen. They were going over the screen as the AI tried to remember.
"I think it was somewhere riiiiiiiiiiiight……here!" Teletraan said as the crosshairs locked into place in the upper part of the screen. "That place is somewhere outside the city but very close to it. Bringing up a visual image now."
Teletraan zoomed in the location and then they all saw what it was. It was a military base.
"There has to be a Decepticon there." Trevor said.
Everyone looked at him.
"What makes you so sure about that, Trev?" Violet asked.
"Because Violet, most of the Decepticons we have encountered so far have military vehicle modes. That would be the perfect place for them to hide out." Trevor said.
"And I'm willing to bet that seismic energy Teletraan picked up was from one of them using their communicators to talk with someone." TK said. "Izzy said that most military bases have signal jammers so no one on the outside could trace anything. Even our radios. But since the Decepticon's radios can go all the way to Cybertron they have to be too strong to conceal their signals."
"He's right." Teletraan said. "That kid is absolutely right."
The others just looked at him and smiled. Then Violet looked at Kari.
"He sure is a keeper, Kari." Violet said.
Kari smiled and wrapped her arms around TK.
"I know he is." She said as she kissed him for ten straight seconds.
"Okay. Now that we know where they are, we still have to figure out how many there are and who they are." Takamon said.
"But how exactly do we do that?" Fry asked.
"I'll see what I can do to find a symbol or anything on one of the vehicles." Teletraan said.
Then Teletraan made the Sky Spy fly around the base looking at every single vehicle. They all stood there watching the screen for a good twenty minutes until finally…
"Got one!"
The ten organics all jumped at the AI's loud words and looked up at the screen. They saw the pointy purple Decepticon symbol on the side of a vehicle, but Teletraan had it zoomed in so far they couldn't see what the rest of the thing looked like. When Teletraan zoomed out, they saw it and only Fry was the one who didn't recognize it. It was a pale MH-53 helicopter.
"It's Blackout." Tai said.
"Who's Blackout?" Fry asked.
"He's a Decepticon that the rest of us fought before we met you. We only fought him once though." TK said.
"Actually, you, Kari and Takamon only fought with him once. The rest of us except for Fry battled him twice." Steve said.
"Is he tough?" Fry asked.
"On a scale of 1 to 10, he's about an 8." Violet said.
"Are there any more cons there, Teletraan?" Trevor asked.
"There are no more Decepticons there but there is one hiding out in the city somewhere laying low." Teletraan said.
"Oh great. It's like the New York thing all over again." Gatomon said.
"Actually, this one I don't think you need to really worry about." Teletraan said.
"Why? Who is it?" TK asked.
Teletraan made another screen appear and it showed an image of a 2009 tan and purple Jeep Cherokee.
"Are you kidding me? Swindle is here too?" Tai said.
"You worried?" Trevor said.
"Are you kidding me? Swindle was the one who ran away from us, remember? It's going to be fun killing him." Tai said.
"They are all laying low for now. That's probably what their orders are." Teletraan said.
"But what should we do if they decide to show themselves?" Kari asked.
"Don't worry about that, Kari. We'll be ready for them." Trevor said.
"I suppose me and Gatomon are just going to watch right?" Patamon asked.
Trevor looked at him.
"Oh hell no." he said. "Don't you remember what I said right before we left the future? I said if you guys could digivolve, you could fight with us."
"What's 'digivolve'?" Fry asked.
TK and Kari smiled as they pulled out their digivices.
"This is digivolving." TK said. "You two ready?"
Patamon and Gatomon walked in front of them and nodded.
"Alright then." TK said.
Both of their digivices started to glow and then Patamon and Gatomon themselves started glowing.
"Patamon digivolve to……Angemon!"
"Gatomon digivolve to……Angewomon!"
The two little creatures turned into huge 8 foot tall angel Digimon. Trevor, Violet, and Steve only saw their armor forms. So this was new. Fry and the other first three knights were absolutely blown away.
"Oh you guys are so in." Trevor said.
Angemon and Angewomon smiled.
"It's about time we got into this thing all the way." Angewomon said.
"You said it, sweetie." Angemon said.
The two angels de-digivolved to their previous forms and went back up to them.
"There's something else we haven't considered." Takamon said.
They all looked at him.
"What is it, Tak?" Steve asked.
"Well, those Digimon I saw earlier today, they had partners with them. What should we do if they try to get involved?" Takamon asked.
That's when everyone started to think. Takamon had a good point. They couldn't risk any innocent lives.
"How about this." Tai said.
All eyes were now on Tai.
"How about Takamon stays in the dark and keeps an eye on them? That way we'll know what they are up to and how much they know." Tai said.
Everyone thought about it and then they came to a conclusion.
"I like it. What about you Tak?" Trevor asked.
"I think I can handle watching over some digidestined. I'll head out first thing in the morning." Takamon said.
"Good. Come on now everyone. Let's think of a battle plan. I have a feeling tomorrow we're all going to have some fun." Trevor said.
Then they all huddled up and began to talk about their tactics and ideas for dealing with the two discovered cons.
(The next morning; Shinjuku Park; 10:00 AM)
In a big open area in the park, all of the tamers and their Digimon were slowly showing up one by one. Takato and Guilmon were first of course, Kazu and Guardromon were next. Then Henry, Suzie, Terriermon, and Lopmon came. Next were Ryo and Cyberdramon. Jeri and Calumon were up next. Then Rika and Renamon came in. Impmon came alone. And finally, Kenta and Marineangemon showed up.
"Well seeing all of us together is something that doesn't really happen that often anymore." Henry said.
"I know. I hardly see you guys now." Ryo said.
"Well the fact that three of you guys have summer school kind of helps out in that area." Rika said.
"Hey it's not our fault that happened." Kazu said.
"Really? Than tell me. Whose fault is it, Kazu?" Jeri said.
"Oh that doesn't even matter." Kazu said. "I just wish I could get out of this."
"You and me both." Kenta added.
As they kept talking, Impmon noticed Renamon's expression. She was being distant and was silent.
"Hey, foxie. What's on your mind?" Impmon asked.
"Nothing that concerns you, Impmon." Renamon replied.
"Come on. You can tell me." Impmon said.
"And then you'll blab it to everyone. Buzz off." Renamon said.
Impmon went away growling a bit and then Rika went over to her.
"You're still thinking about that Digimon you chase last night, aren't you?" Rika said.
Renamon sighed.
"Oh screw it. I'll tell them."
"Yes. I don't know how but last night, I was chasing him. I lost him behind some buildings and then I found him again shortly. I followed him to the beach. He got inside a phone booth and then something very strange happened."
All the tamers and Digimon were listening.
"What happened?" Guardromon asked.
"He went inside a phone booth and then believe it or not, a hole in space just appeared out of nowhere and he walked right through it. Then the thing just disappeared." Renamon said.
"Do you think he went back to the digital world?" Lopmon asked.
"I'm not sure. That didn't look like an ordinary portal to the digital world. It was just a bright glowing hole that was just floating there in the air."
"Well then I think we better keep our eyes open for this guy." Kenta said.
"There's just one problem. How can we look for this guy if only Renamon knows what he looks like?" Henry said.
"Guilmon knows his scent. He can always sniff him down." Takato said.
"Guilmon's nose can sniff anything down." Calumon said.
"Well there's no doubt about that." Takato said.
Not far from where the tamers were, Takamon himself was resting in a tree watching them. He was wearing on his right wrist a black communicator so he could keep in touch with his friends back at the base. He also took notice at the Digimon who were there.
"Interesting looking Digimon. I haven't seen a lot like them. Then again, I spent most of my live in a mine shaft digging out metal. I didn't really see a lot of anything."
He kept on watching them and then noticed something else.
"Their digivices. They're so different to the ones TK and Kari have. Should I go and introduce myself to them?...No. My job is to just watch over them and make sure they don't know about us. If they see me, I'll just run away. I think I'm pretty good at that. But I can't hear what they are saying. I have to get closer somehow with out tipping off dino-boy there. I'll have to do it slowly."
Takamon slowly got up and waited for the right moment to move. When he saw them all look away from the tree, he jumped out and the leaves rustled as he did. He dove right into the leaves of the tree next to the one he was in before. He landed on a branch and jumped over to the edge and waited again. He kept repeating this process until finally, he had had a good listen and their voices.
"You know, there are sometimes I wish I could just leave this world." Kazu said.
"What do you mean?" Takato asked.
"I mean I wish I could just leave and go on another adventure. Kind of like the AutoKnights." Kazu said.
Takamon heard all of that.
"Sp the DO know about them. I just hope they stay out of our way when it comes time for introductions."
"Oh please. The AutoKnights?" Rika said. "They haven't been seen for a long time and I highly doubt that they'll show up anytime soon."
"Henwy, who are the AutoKnights?" Suzie asked her brother.
"The AutoKnights are a group of people that are actually known for saving this world from giant evil alien robots form another world, Suzie." Henry said.
"You mean like we did?" Suzie asked.
"Yeah kinda." Henry responded. "Only these guys were actually doing the fighting themselves. We just sat on the sidelines and watched."
"We were involved in the fight too, brainiac! Don't you remember bio-merging?" Rika said.
"Oh yeah." Henry said.
"But anyways, if I could be one of those guys, I would so rule." Kazu said.
"Oh please if you had the power of an AutoKnight, you'd go insane." Jeri said.
"Besides. I think we're a little too young to be AutoKnights." Takato said.
"I wouldn't be too sure about that." Ryo said. "I heard that most of them we're teenagers. AO they were just a bit older than we are. SO there is a slight chance that we could become some. But I doubt it would ever happen."
"Anything is possible Ryo. Guilmon is living proof of that." Takato said.
"Thank you, Takatomon." Guilmon said.
Takamon heard every single word of that conversation.
"Okay. That's enough for now. I should just leave."
As Takamon turned to jump, he heard something and turned his head. Before he could even react, he saw Renamon fly towards him and tackle him right out of the tree. The tamers and the other Digimon saw them crash into the ground and ran over to where they were.
"I've got you now." Renamon said as she had Takamon pinned down.
"Well played, fox." Takamon said.
The rest of them gathered around and saw the two Digimon. But they were mostly looking at Takamon.
"So this is the guy who outran you twice?" Cyberdramon asked.
"Unfortunately." Renamon said as she let Takamon get up.
Takamon brushed himself off and then noticed everyone staring at him. Rika brought out her blue D-Arc and activated her Digimon analyzer.
"What's it say Rika?" Henry said.
"His name is Takamon. He's a rookie level Digimon with metal skin and a pick for a weapon. Special attacks; Taka Blast and Chrome Spear." Rika said.
"Well it seems you know all about me now. I'll be leaving." Takamon said as he turned to walk away.
"Hold on a sec!" Takato called.
Takamon sighed and turned around.
"Yes?"
"Where did you come from? I mean how did you even get here without giving any sign?" Takato asked.
"Kid, if I told you that, you wouldn't even begin to understand." Takamon said.
"Well we want to know more about you. Like do you have a partner?" Henry asked.
Takamon shrugged.
"To a degree." Takamon replied.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Kenta asked.
"It means I have human friends, but none of them are really my partners like your Digimon are to you." Takamon said. "Look I gotta run."
Takamon started to run away from them as fast as he could. Renamon was getting ready to run after him but Rika grabbed her arm.
"Rika…"
"Let him go, Renamon." Rika said.
Renamon just watched as Takamon jumped back into the tree and started to get farther away from them.
"He was funny looking." Calumon said.
"He was. But where the hell did he come from?" Cyberdramon wondered.
Ryo looked up to his partner.
"You mean no one here knows who that guy was?" Ryo asked.
"We've never seen anything like him before." Guardromon said.
"What should we do?" Lopmon said.
"Let's juts keep an eye on him for now. He doesn't seem like he wants to hurt us." Jeri said.
"It's gonna be hard to keep an eye on him if we don't even know where he is most of the time." Kenta said.
"Don't worry." Marineangemon said.
Kenta smiled at his tiny Mega partner and then back at the group.
"But there's another problem." Henry said. "When I talked to Yamaki last night he said there were THREE Digimon that came out of nowhere. So we still have to find the other two."
"If the other two are that Takamon guy's friends then I don't think we have to worry that much." Takato said.
"He does have a point." Rika said.
"So then what should we do in the meantime?" Guilmon asked.
Calumon jumped out of Jeri's arms.
"PLAY!!"
Calumon then ran off as everyone else just watched and smiled.
"You can't really argue with that." Takato said.
Then everyone started to run in the same direction as Calumon.
(Unknown Military Base; Outside Tokyo: 10:30 AM)
In the military base where the Sky Spy was last night, Blackout was standing by in his MH-53 mode waiting for further orders from Megatron. Not one soul noticed his Decepticon symbol. Blackout was slowly starting to become impatient. He had been there at that base for days, and he hasn't done anything but wait in vehicle mode. Finally…
"Blackout. Come in."
Inside Blackout's cockpit, a red light illuminated and Blackout's radio turned on.
"Yes, lord Megatron. What is your bidding?"
"The time has come. The AutoKnights are back in this time period and they are aware of your presence. We must act fast if we are to get those rings of power before they do."
"What are my orders?"
"Go to the city and bring down as many buildings as have to in order to find those rings. Swindle will be there to assist you. But first, destroy the base where you are. Leave no survivors."
"As you wish, my liege. Blackout out."
Blackout turned off his radio and began to do his transforming show. The cockpit extended out a ways and the rotor blades swept back. Then legs and arms formed and the thing began to stand up. The front windows of the cockpit became his chest. Then a very pointy head popped up and the two optics glowed an evil red. The soldiers stationed in that base began to fire on Blackout. But the bullets they fired only bounced off of him like nothing at all. Blackout then made a gatling gun appear on his right arm and began to return fire. He walked around destroying every single vehicle that was stationed there. And he showed absolutely no mercy to the soldiers that stood in his way. He took them all down like flies. After only five minutes of rampaging, the entire base was burned to the ground and there was not a single survivor. Satisfied with his work, Blackout turned and then the rotor blades on his back started to spin fast. He then took off and flew to Tokyo.
(AutoKnight Base; 10:45 AM)
The seven humans and the two present Digimon were all sitting in the main room with their eyes in front of the TV. Fry decided to make conversation.
"Just out of curiosity, how did you and Violet get the news back in your time, Trev?" Fry asked.
"Oh we had TV in our time. It just lacked color." Trevor said.
"I can't imagine TV without color." Fry said.
"Yeah seriously. TV without color is like beer without alcohol." Steve said.
Now everyone looked at Steve.
"That's a weird comparison, Steve." Tai said.
"Yeah. How would you know what beer is like?" TK said.
Steve just looked away as a response.
"Steve…have you ever been drunk?" TK asked.
Steve looked back.
"Yes. But it was only one time." Steve said defensively.
"Why did you even have booze to begin with?" Kari asked.
"There was this party a cool guy at school was having and the only way me and my friends could get in was if we brought booze. So we did, and we got drunk." Steve said that last part regretfully.
"And what did you do when you were plowed?" Trevor asked.
Steve shuddered as he remembered the pictures Roger took with a camera on that night.
"I'd…rather not say." Steve said scared.
"Whoa. That bad huh?" Fry said.
"I still can't get those images out of my head." Steve said. "Oh great. Now they're stuck. Please let something happen that makes them go away." He said as looked up.
"We interrupt this program for breaking news."
All of them turned their view back to the TV.
"Minutes ago a military base located north of Tokyo was attacked by an unknown source. No one was able to get a good view of the attack, but it certainly did a number on the place."
Now everyone had a scared look.
"Attacked?" Kari muttered as she leaned on TK.
"The base is completely destroyed along with every single piece of equipment. So far the search for survivors has been dry and the search is still continuing. Hopefully one of them is alive and can tell what happened. More on this as it develops."
Right there, all nine of them looked down at the ground in shock and disbelief.
"Damn me and my mouth!" Steve cursed mentally.
"What the hell happened there?" Tai said.
"Perhaps I can show you." Teletraan said.
Then the TV screen began to flicker. In a few more seconds, a clear image of Blackout in his robot mode was seen. The knights and Digimon watched in horror as Blackout relentlessly fired away on the soldiers. They were even more horrified when they saw the soldiers fall.
"All of those people." Kari said with tears stinging her eyes.
"I can't believe it." Fry said.
"Hey guys are you there?"
Takamon's voice was now on speaker throughout the house.
"Yeah, Tak. We're all here." Trevor said.
"Did you hear what happened?" Takamon asked.
"Yeah. We just found out. Blackout…he killed all of them." Violet said.
"I know, Violet. And he's on his way here. It looks like he's hunting for the rings." Takamon said.
Trevor's face went from sadness to angry. He slowly walked over to the TV and turned it off.
"Well then how about we go dish out some serious payback?" Trevor said as a smirk came across his face.
Then they all smirked with him. They all stood close together in a circle.
"I'm all for it." Steve said.
"Let's do this for those soldiers." Tai said.
"And let's show Blackout what happens when he kills people on this planet." Violet said.
Trevor nodded and put his hand out. Violet then put her hand on top of his. Soon everyone joined in. Even Patamon and Gatomon digivolved to Angemon and Angewomon to join in on this.
"Alright then." Trevor said as he looked up. "Takamon, go to the front street of Shinjuku Park. When we transform, Ironhide and Ratchet will meet you there."
"Roger that. Let's kick it up." Takamon said as he fuzzed out.
Trevor looked back down.
"Til all are one!" he shouted.
"TIL ALL ARE ONE!" the rest of them yelled.
Then Fry, Steve, Tai, Kari, TK, Violet, and Trevor all shouted.
"AUTOKNIGHT TRANSFORM!!"
All of their rings glowed bright white as they melted over all of their bodies. Then they all had their suits on and their new names took over.
"OPTIMUS PRIME!!"
"IRONHIDE!!"
"RATCHET!!"
"JETFIRE!!"
"BUMBLEBEE!!"
"ARCEE!!"
"SIDESWIPE!!"
(A/N: Can't remember who's who? Refer back to chapter one)
Bumblebee's and Arcee's suits were already described. Optimus' suit was more colorful than anyone else's suit there. The legs were dark blue and had red flames running up them. The torso part was bright red with blue flames running up his chest and down his sleeves. His robe/cape was also red with blue flames. His AutoKnight symbol was located on his left shoulder.
Ironhide's suit was simply black in every part. Her symbol was in the upper left side of her chest.
The majority of Ratchet's suit was greenish yellow. Across how stomach and continuing around to his cape, was a red line. On the front of his stomach and on the back of his cape, the line did a short heart rate zig zag. On his right shoulder was a circular patch with his AutoKnight symbol in the center. On the border of the patch, it read, "AutoKnight Search & Rescue".
Jetfire's suit was flat black but it had a slight grayish tint to it to distinguish it form Ironhide's color. On the back of his robe, a thin red line made a rectangle. His goggles had also changed into that grayish black color. His symbol was on his upper right arm.
Sideswipe's suit was silver everywhere. Except for standing on his feet, he had skates on his feet that were made form single wheels. So he had one wheeled skates that his feet were concealed in. His symbol was on his right shoulder.
They all had the braces and the black boots to make their suits have some similarity.
After the transformations were complete, they all ran down the hallway to the Teletraan chamber elevator. Everyone that is except for Optimus and Jetfire.
"Are you two coming?" Angemon asked.
"You guys go on ahead and stick to the plan from last night. Me and Jetfire will be there before you know it." Optimus said.
"Well okay. Just don't be late or you two will miss out on all the fun." Ironhide said with a smirk.
Optimus smirked back at her and then they all disappeared in the elevator, leaving Optimus and Jetfire alone.
"I'll go through with your idea, but I have one question." Jetfire said.
"Yeah? And what's that?" Optimus asked.
"How much do you weigh when you're the truck?"
Trevor: Well…that was an interesting end to that chapter.
Takamon: Yeah. That was different.
Rika: Don't worry about it. I just want AK to start working on the next one right now.
Tai: I think we all do.
Violet: You heard them AK. Get to work.
Me: Alright calm down. Well, a lot of plans were made, some put into action, and why did Jetfire ask Optimus how much he weighs in vehicle mode? All of these answers will be seen in chapter five. Until then, peace bitches.
