In the RID reality...
"Wow, I can't believe I got this thing at the auction for so cheap a price. This must be my lucky day!" Kelly continued to examine the Transmetal Driver unaware of her silent observers.
"How do we get the artifact from her?" asked Botanica. "I don't know. She looks familiar though, I think I towed her car a few times." replied Tow-Line. "That does nothing but put us on bad terms." "Hey, Wing Saber, no parking means no parking!"
Across the block, Sky Byte was telling his plan to the Decepticons. "All right, on my signal -"
"Why should you be leader?" asked Rampage.
"Huh?"
"You are too cowardly to be leader. I can sense the fear within your spark."
"It doesn't matter! Megatron made me leader so that's that!"
"Ah, forget this! Let's just go get it! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!" Cyclonus laughed as he charged forward, the others following behind him.
"No! Wait! Stay! I'm the leader, you have to listen!" But the others would not listen to Sky Byte. They just continued with their attack.
Omega Supreme was the first to see the incoming threat. "Autobots! Incoming!"
Optimus was the first to turn. "All right, Wing Saber, with me! SONIC WING MODE!"
Optimus and Wing Saber link up and take on Cyclonus in helicopter mode in a battle in the air.
"Botanica, Tow-Line, go! I'll handle the rest!" Omega Supreme began to attack the Incesticon, Rampage, and Tankor, keeping them at bay.
"We must secure the artifact for Megatron!"
"I am just interested in ending a spark so huge and feeding on its pain!"
"TANKOR PULVERIZE!"
Kelly hears the battle outside and wonders what is going on. When she opens the door, she gets freaked out by the sight of the giant robots fighting right outside her house. "Excuse me?" She then turns to see a weird-looking plant woman talking to her. "I know this is bad, but we need that orb in your house."
"What! No! No, no, no! I have had enough of giant robots ruining my day, and I will not let you ruin it again!" Kelly then rushed back in, grabbed the Driver, and ran out the back door, trying to get away. "It's no use Tow-Line. We have to take it." "Then I'll try getting it with my hook." But when Tow-Line threw his hook...
"SHARK MISSILE ATTACK!"
Out-of-nowhere missiles came and destroyed Tow-Line's hook. Everyone turned to see Sky Byte appear, swerve around everyone, cut off Kelly, and grab the Transmetal Driver. Sky Byte's tears of joy were the last thing to see as the Transformers vanished, the match over. "So all I had was to give it to them and they would disappear? I should do that more often."
"But then where would be the fun in that?" asked a quizzical Gamer. "Fun? Are you really seeing this as a game?!" said the first of the shadowy figures. The other was getting just as furious as the other. "We should have never agreed to this, if we knew this would happen!" "But you did, so you have to deal with the consequences." The figures fell silent again, wondering how they can change or undo this.
