"HOLY PIT SPAWNED OF FRAGGING SLAG!" Ratchet screamed as I watched Megatronus induce himself with it. He couldn't possibly be thinking when he did that, but I still watched as Ratchet moved a mile a minute, taking energon levels and who knows what else. It would be better if he was gone though, wouldn't have any slagging thing to do with him, wouldn't have to worry about him turning back into the glitched up son of Unicron pit spawned mech he once was. Still, he was helpful in some ways, I mean, if he lives we have a new form of energon, and it will fuel us, but still.
"Arcee," Optimus's familiar voice cut in, "it is your turn to do patrols." I sighed, I didn't want to do fragging patrol.
So you know what I do, I lie to Optimus, "I want to see if Megatronus is okay." He speculated me, but to my relief, he bought the farfetched lie. He walked over to Devcon and he went out on patrol instead. I was forced to wait and pretend I cared about his wellbeing, sheesh, I don't know why anyone even cared about this glitch, of what he's done to us, he's lucky me and Elita haven't teamed up to scrap him. But, obviously Optimus believes he has changed, so I waited while he was unconscious.
"Soundwave, any news going around the block?" Knockout asked Soundwave.
He turned from his computer and played back his message, "Okay Ratchet, I am absolutely sure it will work now, and I will test myself. / HOLY PIT SPAWNED OF FRAGGING SLAG!"
"Seems like lord Megatron committed suicide, tsk, well this is good right, this means we won't have to battle him." Soundwave tilted his head in slight ignition, "Um, well I'm certain he will be alright, any word on how closer Shockwave and Snapdragon are to Earth?"
Soundwave played back a message, "We have arrived in the cluster in which the Earth is in. We will be here in approximately a deca-cycle."
"3 weeks until they arrive, tsk, we will need backup soon because the Autobot's are growing in numbers.
Soundwave played yet another message from Shockwave, "We've established contact with the Decepticons of Thundercracker and Slugslinger, and they will be present at your world in an orbital cycle."
"Ah, so we will have two more to our cause then, and I believe that once all of them gets here we will lead the Autobots in 5, because we scrapped one of them." Knockout considered this, once all 4 of them were here, they would have strength in numbers, but that hasn't meant much, considering on how the Autobots are very persistent, too persistent if you asked Knockout. "Have we decoded a relic yet?" Soundwave shook his head once in a 'no' motion, "Ah, how hard is it, we'll probably not decode another one until Snapdragon is here, he's the one that had the job of decoding things back in the war. Soundwave, you can go back to work." With that Knockout turned his heel and left about his way.
I woke up, but normally you feel groggy, no but this time I was wide awake. "Ratchet." The mech jumped in surprise at my voice. "What, how long was I out?" I asked as I got up and stretched my gears.
"Megatronus you should sit down."
"I feel great though."
"You've been out 3 weeks."
"Again?"
"Yes."
"Ah, well I'm checking my status." To my surprise it was great, all levels were higher and greater than usual. "Ratchet, check this out."
"No way." He said as he looked, "I think we now have a new form of energon, but now is not the time. Shockwave and Snapdragon has arrived on our planet, Thundercracker and Slugslinger arrived the day after you passed out."
"Send me in."
He looked at me, but eventually submitted to my request. The ground bridge blasted open and I ran through. I extracted my blade and touched it, the poison engulfing the blade. I looked around, Elita and Arcee were battling Snapdragon, Bumblebee was battling Slugslinger, Wheeljack obviously arrived and he was facing Dreadwing, Devcon and Knockout were fighting, Ultra Magnus was facing Soundwave, and then Optimus was in a fierce battle with Shockwave. Breakdown was charging me as he left Ultra Magnus's battle.
He didn't seem to be worried about my blade, as I met his hammer with my sword. I was holding back though, I didn't know what would happen if I used all of this power, but I went through with it anyway. I cut and slashed at him, I faked, and hit him with my sword and extracted it from his arm, the poison ate through his arm and it fell off, but the bad news is that my poison blade wasn't poison anymore, just regular. I shot one kill I guess.
We resumed dancing… well more like my slaughter. I dodged his hammer, and then slashed down on his arm, and it fell right off, then I ran Breakdown through, sending him to the well of allsparks. His energon was washed on my blade, gushing out of him, and in one last attempt he said to me, "I…(he coughed up energon) will always be loyal to you Megatron…(coughed up some more) even though your brain may be…(he coughed) erased from your former memories…(he coughed again) all the Decepticons, every one of us…(he coughed) we will always be loyal to you." Then Breakdown died, pledging himself to me for his last dying breaths, what a waste I thought, and then I left his carcass to rot.
I charged into battle yet again, going to help Optimus with Shockwave. I roared my battle cry, and I leaped up on Shockwaves back, bringing him down to the ground with my mass. "INTERLOPER!" He bellowed at me.
"MEGATRONUS, you're alive!" Optimus yelled.
"Looks like it doesn't it!" I answered, and then Shockwave was up again. I charged him, jumping into the air, round house kicking him with both feet, and then I blasted him in his eye. He swung at me with his gun, I dodged, but then his foot came around expertly and slammed into my face, optics frizzing out for a second. I got up again, but this time I wasn't alone, me and Optimus fought side by side, trying to waver this titan, but nothing happened, he took us both on. We both had our blades out, and Shockwave was blocking our strikes, and managing to land some hits on us, but his strength was fading, but then again so was Optimus's. I was still on full steam, slashing and hacking at him, like I was invincible.
"Optimus, go help Ultra Magnus!" I yelled at him.
"Megatronus, you can't take Shockwave alone!" He yelled back.
"Just go, or another Autobot will perish!" I screamed. I was barely holding Shockwave, and Soundwave was about to extinguish Magnus.
He looked at me with those eyes, but then he finally submitted, running off to help Magnus. I turned all my energies on Shockwave then, and I fought my hardest. I landed blow after blow on my adversary that was as big as me, while he was doing the same for me. I ducked under his gun swipe, and plunged my upper cut up to his face. He caught my arm with his, and then smashed his gun into my side. I coughed up some energon, and then I heard him say, "This melee ends at this trice, perish Megatron!" He brought his gun up to my face, and I stared the purple glow, my death was right in my face. Then a giant pitch black fist slammed into Shockwaves face.
"Not this time Shockwave!" A loud gruff, and slightly country voice called out. And then he turned his cannons on me. I overcame my shock quickly, kicking his legs out from under him, then I heaved him up into the air, my gears crying out in pain, let him go, but he didn't get to stay on his feet, I then triple round housed kicked him, and that sent him flying off.
"RETREAT!" Knockout called to his 'cons, and then when I looked over at him, another femme was here, and his face was indented in, probably from one of their famous kicks, I mused to myself. They all transformed and fled from the scene, all of us bleeding too much energon to care.
"Ratchet, send the ground bridge, and prepare to treat," he looked around at us, "everyone, plus two newcomers that Devcon knows." Me and Devcon dragged the big black bot through the ground bridge, the purple femme next to us scanning him over with her eyes in obvious worry, even though she was limping.
The next hours were long and tedious for us, and Ratchet was kept busy. Ratchet patched all our energon leaks, and now he was going through repairing us. After a while, Ratchet asked Optimus, who was already repaired, "Optimus, we are out of energon, I can't treat anyone anymore."
"What?" He asked.
"Due to the excess of people, we have run out of energon." Ratchet said.
I got up and said to them as I walked over to my station, "We have the synthetic energon, and if Optimus permits it, then we can use it." I said, my green optics looked at Optimus.
"We have no choice, induce the rest with it." I gave Ratchet the 5 vials of it, leaving me with one to duplicate. I duplicated all the energon until we had 100 vials by the time Ratchet was done, enough to not have to duplicate for a while. I was the last to be treated, and everyone was induced with the 'Synthen', as Ratchet called it, except for Optimus and the newly acquired Chromia and Ironhide. I was eventually treated fully, and then I walked over to Ironhide, Chromia, and Devcon.
"So this is the famous Ironhide, the weapons specialist." I said to him.
"What 'ya expect, but I still don like tis Devcon, I don trust t fool, min wipe or non." The black mech's country kicked in.
"Don't worry Ironhide, he will not harm us, and he even found a synthetic form of energon." Devcon said.
"Tat woul explain ta green eyes." He said.
"I still back Ironhide on this," Chromia said, "I wouldn't trust Megatron unless Primus said it was alright to trust him." Ouch I said to myself.
"Anyway, Devcon, you said to come for a refill didn't you?" I asked him.
"Oh yeah, and I forgot to tell you that it's one shot one kill, so don't use it unless absolutely necessary. Now, take it off and hand it to me." Devcon said. I gave him my weapon, and he shortly refilled it, and then I was off. I went straight to my room, and crashed on the warm birth at my wake.
