This is three chapters in one, because I just want to get this story story done. hat is how bad I think it is.
Chapter 14 Sacrifice.
The chipmunks as well as Dave and Claire all were leaning against a cold metal wall, sound asleep. None of them had slept in in almost 20 hours.
They were in deep sleep when all of a sudden, Omega shuddered, making everyone wake up with a start.
"What going on?" Theodore said, sounding scared.
Suddenly Omega's hatched opened, bringing in a bright light the momentarily blinded everyone. Once their eyes adjusted, they slowly and cautiously got up and moved towards the hatch and peered out. They all gave a sigh of relief as they saw hundreds of military vehicles with military personnel walking everywhere.
They slowly walked down the ramp, seeing that they were in a huge cavern filled with lights. The cavern was cold and damp, it felt like they were deep underground.
They almost reached the bottom when they heard a voice yell out.
"What the hell is that thing doing back so soon. It is the only thing keeping those walking trash can back."
Everyone looked a few meters away and saw a very weary looking military officer standing there, looking at the massive robot.
Dave quickly kneeled down, placing the duffle bag near the chipmunks, using his hands to guide them inside. Once they were in, Dave stood up.
"Excuse me. Can you help us?" he asked. The military officer froze when he saw Dave and Claire, looking at them in disbelief.
"Civilians! How did you get here?" he said, sounding quite upset as he walked up the ramp, right up to Dave and Claire.
Dave wasn't going to explain, he was going to find his son.
"Where is Prime?" he said, looking at the military officer coldly. The officer froze, looking briefly between Dave and Claire.
"How do you know about him?" he asked, sounding bewildered.
"Just tell us where he is" Dave said.
The officer was silent for a moment, then turned on his heels. "Follow me" he said. Dave and claire followed close behind as the officer lead them towards a building that was built into the the cave wall. It was large and tall, at least the size of a small skyscraper. The officer walked up to a lone door on the side, typing in a code, and held the door open, allowing them all to enter. Once they were in, the officer closed the door, leaving them where they were.
Dave slowly set his duffle bag, allowing them to get out.
They took several steps forward, starring in amazement at what they saw. They were in a huge military command centre filled with hundreds of people. The room was circular with four wide paths leading to a platform in the middle, and next to each path was a drop that was filled with computers and people.
TV monitors lined the walls everywhere, giving up to date information. Everyone looked to the centre of the room and saw Tyler up a head in his robot form, with a large jet pack with large wings on his back, with two large guns hanging on each side. He was kneeling down in front of what looked like a high ranking military commander talking. They notice next to Tyler was another bot. This one shared characteristics similar to Tyler, but seemed more bulkier. It had large blue legs, and and a chest that came quite a distance from it's large blue head that had to distinguishable mouth.
They remained where they were, watching what seemed like a heated discussion between Tyler and the military officer. They listened carefully and could hear the words that were being exchanged.
"There is no need to rush this Prime. We will beat those toasters eventually."
"The longer we wait, the longer he time has to build his forces. You may be able to condone widespread casualties of your forces, but I can not. They are just people, brothers, fathers, sisters, mothers. They have lives, and families that need them."
"Then do the world a favour, act now, or never. We will then fight those toasters alone without you."
The commander then stormed off and went for an exit on the far side of the room. Tyler then turned towards the unknown bot as they seemed to talk for a moment. They both were shaking their heads, before the unknown bot began to walk towards Dave and Claire as Tyler turned away.
As soon as he saw Brittany and everyone else, he froze. After a moment, he started to slowly walk toward them. All of them not knowing what this bot was doing. The bot then kneeled down in front of them and spoke.
"Brittany!" sounding like he couldn't believe what he was seeing. Brittany walked right up and looked right into the eyes.
"Alvin"! she said, realizing who was standing before them.
Brittany could not see a mouth, but she thought that she could tell he was smiling. Alvin's body began to glow as he returned to his original size and form. As soon as he was back to normal, he gave everyone a nervous smile as he rubbed his neck.
"Hey everyone."
Brittany just stared at Alvin, then she suddenly ran at him almost knocking him to the ground as she hugged him in a tight embrace. Alvin held her tightly, gently rubbing her back. After a moment, they pulled away, and Brittany slapped Alvin on the arm.
"How could you just leave us?" she said with venom, staring coldly into Alvin's eyes.
Alvin was about to open his mouth when another voice butt in.
"Do not blame Alvin, Brittany" said Tyler as he approached, the ground shaking after each foot step from the extra mass he was carrying. "The situation was serious, Alvin wanted to wait, but I had to force him. It is something I am not proud of, but it had to be done. And because of his help, we helped slow down Jordan's advance" he said as he kneeled down in front of everyone.
"But the question remains, how did you get to my universe?"
Alvin then turned back to his family, realizing that they shouldn't be here. "Didn't you two open a portal to get us here?" said Jeanette looking at both Alvin and Tyler.
Both of them shook their heads.
"Questions to be solved at a later time" said Tyler as he stood back up. "Now we don't have the time." "What's going on Tyler?" said Simon looking up at him. "All we know is that Jordan found a new source of power, and that is it."
Tyler then turned back to them and spoke quietly. "You have to be careful at what you say. My true name is not known. If you go to a private room I have, me and Alvin will come and talk to you about what is happening shortly."
Everyone looked at each other as Alvin gave Brittany a quick kiss and changed back to his original form. Tyler then extended his hand, revealing a tablet resting on it.
"Take this, it is a map for the base, it will show you a way to the room."
Dave reached and grabbed the tablet and looked over the image being displayed. "We will be there soon" said Alvin, his voice deep with and electronic tone behind it. Everyone gave a small nod as they turned to exit the structure.
They were scared, and tired, but they all felt relieved they finally found Alvin. After about 15 minutes of wondering the huge facility, they finally found the room and opened the giant doors and walked in. The room was empty, with a few high tech computers in it that Tyler apparently used..
To the right, they saw human sized doors and walked in. There in the smaller rooms, were beds with the sheets neatly tucked in. Without saying a word, everyone jumped onto a bed, falling a sleep almost instantly as their heads hit the mattress's.
Everyone laid asleep on the mattress's, the first real sleep they had in almost two days.
Tyler walked into the room in his human form with Alvin sitting on his shoulder. They glanced around the room, not seeing any of them in sight.
Alvin tapped the side of Tyler's head and pointed towards the closed doors on the side of the room. Tyler walked towards the doors, his feet echoing at each step as his soles taped against the concrete floors. He slowly turned the handle, and peered in.
There, they saw everyone asleep, laying down at any spots they could take. Tyler gently closed the door and turned his head to Alvin.
"I think we should let them sleep" Tyler said quietly.
"But we are going to be leaving soon, we should talk to them before we head out" said Alvin.
Tyler gave a small sigh as he opened the door again and walked into the room. He stood at the end of one of the bed and gently spoke out, "Everyone, we need to talk."
Everyone groaned as they slowly began to wake, their eyes still heavy as they a looked towards Tyler and Alvin.
"Couldn't you have given us a few extra hours" Claire as she rubbed her eyes. Tyler just shook his head.
"There is no time" Alvin said as Tyler grabbed him and set him down on a near by table. "What do you mean?" said Eleanor as she walked to the end of her bed. Alvin looked towards Tyler, where he gave a small nod.
"Me and Tyler are going to be leaving soon" said Alvin quietly.
"Where?" said Brittany, jumping right up to Alvin.
"Port Elgin" said Tyler as he sat down on a chair next to the table. "Isn't that where Jordan is supposed to be?" said Jeanette.
Tyler gave a small nod. "The coalition of military powers can't hold his army forever. We have to destroy the source of all this if my Earth is going to win" he said looking down.
"What was that source of power Jordan found?" said Simon as he joined Jeanette.
"The Light's Emblem" Tyler said quietly. "It was an artifact that was said to keep a powers like Alvin's or Jordan's stable, like a neutralizing force in the universe. Without, a Alvin nor Jordan can't keep their powers and will lose them. The powers may be a copy of a Prime's powers, but anything that is copied can be unstable."
"Wait" said Brittany, "if you are going to destroy the source of Jordan's powers, then that would mean Alvin would lose his."
Everyone turned to Alvin who had his paws tucked into his pockets.
"A small price to pay" Alvin said quietly. Tyler then stood up.
"I am going to be leading the attack. Jordan will surely redeploy his army to attack us. This will make it hard to achieve our goal, but it will weaken their lines, allowing the military force to hopefully punch through and take the town."
"And how do you intend to fight a army, when you don't have your own?" Brittany said, all of them looking at Tyler intently.
Tyler then pulled out a small computer tablet, turning the screen towards everyone, giving them a view. On the screen, they could see glowing blue capsules hanging from a cave ceiling, with dark figure moving inside.
"Jordan isn't the only one who can make a army" Tyler said as he put the tablet away. "Like Jordan's army, mine are infused with energon. That way, they can inflict harm on Jordan, if they get the shot."
Tyler remained silent for a moment, then he looked at everyone. "This is going to be a one way trip. I will fight, until the Emblem is destroyed, and my old friend Jordan is rendered human once again, or die trying."
Everyone stared at Tyler, realizing that he was going to go to extremes to have this Emblem destroyed, maybe even if it meant death.
"That's suicide" Theodore said as he grabbed Eleanor's paw.
"If it saves my planet and the universe, it will be worth it" Tyler said. "If not, I'm no worse off. But either way, it is the only choice we have."
Brittany then took a step foreword. "I'm going with you" she said right at Tyler.
Tyler and Alvin's eyes widened in disbelief, then Tyler shook his head slowly. "Absolutely not. It is out of the question".
Alvin grabbed Brittany's paws and held them tightly. "Brittany, it's to dangerous. We won't be able to fully protect you."
Brittany just shook her head, "I'm not asking. I want to be there with you Alvin. If anything should happen, I want to be there with you, no matter what. Plus, like Tyler said. If he fails, we're all dead anyway."
Then to Alvin and Tyler's surprise, everyone began to stand, each one of them saying they wanted to go as well.
Tyler looked at everyone, he didn't want to put them into harms way, but after two years, he knew how stubborn they could all be. He looked towards Alvin then back to everyone else. "You realize if you guys come, their is no promise we can protect you."
"We know the risk" said Brittany as she held Alvin's paws.
"In that case" said Tyler as he went for the door, "we head off in two hours, get yourselves ready. I'll leave you all alone so that you can spend some time together."
Tyler then walked out of the room, leaving Alvin alone with his family. "Everything will be fine" Alvin said looking at his family with a smile breaking through the corner of his mouth. "I hope your right son" said Dave as he gently hugged Claire.
The launch area was filled with large, bulky robots armed to the teeth. Everyone went with Tyler to watch tho thing emerge from their capsules. It was like watching something hatch from a egg. As soon as they were free, and saw Tyler, they bowed down, declaring their loyalty to him.
Omega was already in his ship form, as the new bots piled into him. Alvin stood with his family, sitting near the massive ship. They were all nervous, knowing that if they didn't win, that would be it.
"When do we go?" Brittany asked, as she looked towards Alvin.
"When Tyler arrives" Alvin replied, his paws tucked tightly into his pockets.
Then as if on cue, they could hear the rumble of a truck approaching. Everyone turned around, and could see Tyler driving towards them, towing a large trailer behind him. As he came closer, he transformed, with the trailer breaking apart, almost seeming to transform with him. All they could make out was a large mess of metal that was quickly taking shape.
Soon, they could make out the familiar form of Tyler walking towards them, with the large jet pack on his back, with four large wings coming out both sides, with two large jets, and two large guns attached to both of his arms.
Alvin immediately began to glow, turning into his new robotic form, taking Tyler's side as they both looked down at Dave, Claire and the chipmunks.
"Remember guys" said Tyler looking down at them. "Stay close to either me or Alvin, that will be your best chance."
Everyone gave a nod as Tyler gestured toward Omega. "Climb in then, and see you on the other side."
Alvin then bent down and extended his hand. Everyone climbed on as he placed everyone on his shoulder. He then climbed up the ramp and into Omega. Tyler was the only one standing outside, as the jets on his back fired to life, living him off of the ground and into the air, flying down a long dark tunnel. Omega then lifted off the ground in close pursuit, following closely behind Tyler. Everything inside Omega was silent, as Dave and everyone else remained on Alvin's shoulder as he walked through the mass of robots to a monitor at the front of the room.
"Alvin" Brittany whispered, larding against his head. "Is Tyler sure there is no other way to destroy Jordan. Your going to be losing your powers because of this."
"He is" Alvin replied quietly. "Jordan's powers are near the point where he is almost invincible, it is the only way."
Alvin remained silent for a moment, then he spoke again. "Everything will be fine, I still plan to marry you Brittany. That I promise you."
Brittany gently stroked her paw against his massive head. "Your right you will. Your not getting out of marrying me so easily."
Then Tyler's voice rang out, "Everyone, brace yourselves."
They all looked towards the monitor to see a shore line approaching, and just above it, a swarm of futuristic fighter jets flying towards the. The sounds of guns loading filled the room, the tension immediately growing.
Everyone could see the fliers turning towards them, getting ready to attack.
"Omega, give it everything you've got" Tyler's voice yelled out.
They heard the sound of a giant weapon charging, then a bright beam of hot energy shot out right into the swarm of fliers, vaporizing most of them. On the monitor, they could see Tyler fly ahead taking out the rest on his own. He looked like a fast moving blur, flying through the air, leaving only buying husk crashing to the ground.
"So much for the easy part" said Alvin.
The shore line continued to come closer, becoming land with ruined buildings and farm land. Omega hovered above it all as a hatch in the room opened. "Hold on" said Alvin as he and other bots jumped down to the ground, instantly arming themselves.
As soon as they did, they were met with a swarm of soldiers running towards them. It was like two cars hitting each other as the two factions clashed. The sound of metal contact rang through the air as explosions and gun fire erupted.
Alvin quickly set his family down and got back up in time time to shot a warrior that was about to take him out. An axe deployed out Alvin's right hand while his left turned into a gun. He ran towards the swam of army of Jordan's army, taking out nearby ones with his axe while shooting at others that were further away.
Everyone stayed as close to Alvin as they could, watching the chaos unfolding around them. They jumped place to place, trying to avoid the falling bodies and massive feet falling around them.
Explosions rocked the air, as they heard both sides curse at each other in a alien language. They looked up and could see even Omega had it's hands full. It was flying around the sky, with the giant Trypticon attacking, getting it's revenge for the humiliation it suffered.
Omega seemed to stall for a moment in the air, and that gave Trypticon enough time to ram into him as they crashed down to the lake. They could hear a loud crash as a explosion appeared in the out over the water.
They looked back down to the battle they were in the middle of, and turned white when they saw they lost track of Alvin. They ran around, trying to find him again before it was to late. They were suddenly knocked to the ground as two giant feet appeared in front of them.
They slowly looked up to see the bright red eyes, and a menacing face staring back at them. The robot raised it's gun, aiming it right at them. They all held each other, thinking this was it. Before it could fire fired, a giant red and blue blur ran past them.
Relief shot though them as they saw Alvin tumble to the ground with the robot in a all out brawl. Alvin punched the it as hard as he could, making bits of metal fly everywhere. After about ten hits the robots eyes grew dim as Alvin got back up and turned to his family.
"IS ANYONE HURT?" he yelled out.
They all shook their heads as Alvin came up closer to check on them. Suddenly Alvin screamed in pain as what appeared to be a sword impaled through his lower abdomen.
They all screamed in terror when they saw the same bot Alvin was just took down was back on his feet and attacked him from behind.
Alvin swung around and bashed the robot square in the face with his arm. The robot fell back to the ground as Alvin deployed a gun from his hand and finished it off with a shot to the head.
Alvin then grabbed the sword that was still in his abdomen and pulled it out, screaming in pain as he did it. Blue liquid leaked out of his body as he collapsed to his knees in pain.
"ALVIN!" yelled Brittany as everyone went running towards him.
The battle was starting to get quiet as less and less robots remained standing to fight. Those that were still in the fight were moving farther and farther away.
Alvin remained on all fours, holding his abdomen in pain.
Suddenly, he began to glow as he turned back to his chipmunk self, still holding his side.
"Alvin, are you alright?" said Brittany as she slowly wrapped her arm around Alvin to help him to his feet.
"I'm fine" he said as he winced in pain.
Everyone heard the sound of a jet approaching, as they turned and saw Tyler flying towards them, landing with a thud.
He was covered in burn marks and many parts of him seemed dented, scratched and damaged. He approached them and kneeled down close to everyone, noticing Alvin's wound.
"Alvin, I think your battle is over."
Winching in pain, Alvin stood up. "I can still fight Tyler."
Then he fell back down onto his knees as his eyes rolled to the back of his head.
"Listen to Tyler Alvin" said Dave as he gently picked up his son and held him in his hands.
"This is now between me and Jordan now" Tyler said as he stood back up. He then began to walk into the centre of the town with everyone following. After a few minutes of walking, they saw a school down the road, with several big menacing robots surrounding it.
Tyler instantly kneeled down behind a house to prevent himself from being seen. "Why is that school so important?" said Jeannette as she peeked around the corner.
"There are hostages in there, mostly school children. My old friend knows that as long as he has them, the military won't risk destroying this town with children still here. He has some of his most powerful warriors guarding it. If I take them all out, it will draw Jordan out, and I can end this all."
"Are you crazy!" said Alvin almost yelling as he laid in Dave's hands. "There is no way you can defeat all them. They will rip you to shreds."
Tyler stood up and looked down at everyone. "A chance I have to take."
Before anyone could protest, Tyler jumped out from behind the house and charged. He went right for the closest one, deploying his sword and slicing it right through. It instantly fell to the ground dead, in two pieces, just as bullets and missiles began to barraged him.
Struggling to stay standing from all the impacts, Tyler grabbed the dead robot at his feet and raised him up like a shield. He raised his right arm, the gun attached to it firing as he picked off the robots in front of him, all of them falling to the ground dead or badly damaged.
Everyone gasped in horror as another came up behind Tyler and began to throw it's fists and stab at him with a sword on it's arm. Tyler swung the dead bot he held in his hand towards the attacking one, causing it to lose it's balance.
The it fell to the ground as it struggled to push it's dead comrade off him. But before it could get back up, Tyler jumped on top of it, and drove his sword through the chest. Tyler jumped, firing his jet engines, sending him into the air, aiming for the last two robots that remained.
Tyler hovered over the two, shooting with everything he had. One robot fell to the ground from the fire, but the other continued shooting, hitting one of Tyler's engines, causing him to spiral down.
He had had enough control though that he landed right on top of the his attacker, taking it out.
Everyone looked towards the second one and saw it transforming into a massive tank, with the barrel aiming towards Tyler who's back was still turned.
"WATCH OUT" they all screamed as loud as they could.
Tyler turned in time to see the gun barrel aimed right at him. He instantly reached down and grabbed the robot at his feet and threw him into the gun barrel as hard as he could. As soon as he did, an explosion ripped the two robots apart and sending him flying though the air and landing right into a near by house.
Everyone all ran towards him as he slowly pulled himself out of the rubble. Everyone almost froze as they saw how badly Tyler was injured. Blue liquid seeped out of several areas on his body, pieces were falling off or were hanging on by a thread.
Parts were dented and scratched, covered in burn marks. Everyone stood a few meters away from Tyler as he got back up. "He can't take much more of this" Alvin said as he looked at his family. Tyler straightened himself and took two steps. Just as he did, a missile screamed through the air right towards him, hitting him square on the chest, sending him back to the ground.
A huge round circular burn mark covered his chest as he slowly turn to his side. Tyler groaned in pain as he slowly pushed himself into a sitting position. They all looked towards the source of the missile and saw a jet covered in weird tattoos flying towards them.
Just before it reached them, it transformed, revelling the form of Starscream as he landed a short distance from Tyler. "It's a shame all my fallen comrades had a chance at you" Starscream said as he aimed his rocket launcher at Tyler. "I always heard that Primes were excellent fighters."
Tyler's jet engines suddenly spun around aiming right at Starscream, firing two balls of energy at him. It hit Starscream in the shoulder, sending him spinning to the ground as he let out a yelp of surprise.
Tyler stood back up, groaning in pain as the jet engines charged up again to fire another shot, but before they could, they seemed to shut down. Tyler clenched his fist in frustration as Starscream stood back up.
"So" he said aiming his launcher back at Tyler, "what's a Prime without his powers?"
Tyler slowly raised his head and looked right at Starcream. "A Prime still."
He then jumped forward, bringing his fist right down at Starscream with the sound of crunching metal. Before Starscream could recover, Tyler rammed his sword right into his abdomen. Then with all his strength, he threw Starscream over his head and tossed him as hard as he could.
Starscream hit the ground head first, his eyes growing dim until they went out. Alvin and everyone looked towards Tyler, as he stood there motionless holding his head, as a computerized voice spoke out, coming from a small circular mechanical object on his shoulder, that was flash in a bright red.
"Warning! Energon blood concentration at 6 percent and dropping. Stasis lock commencing."
Then Tyler said a something that made Alvin's blood run cold. "Override."
"Repeat" said the voice. "Concentration critical, further expenditures will result in loss of spark. Stasis lock must commence."
"OVERRIDE" yelled Tyler.
Tyler stood there, exhausted and out of energy. Everybody looked towards Alvin. "Alvin" said Simon quietly. "What's stasis lock?"
Alvin looked back at Tyler with worry and fear in his eyes who as Tyler took small weak steps. Alvin slowly turned his head as he looked back at everyone else.
"A human version is the brain inducing a coma to prevent death."
Everyone's eyes widened in horror as they looked back to Tyler. Brittany then spoke up. "Then that would mean-"
"Correct" Alvin said sadly. "If he keeps this up, he won't live much longer. I guess he meant it when he said he will stop at nothing."
Then the silence was broken as they heard a roar over head. Everyone looked up and saw the giant tank form of Jordan fly above them. He kept flying for about a mile before he turned around and went straight for Tyler.
Everyone braced themselves thinking Jordan was going to take Tyler out right there. But to their surprise, he transformed and landed about two dozen meters in front of Tyler.
"It's good to see you again, my old friend" he said as he crossed his metallic arms.
Tyler clenched his fist as he stared right at Joradn. "You lost the right to call me friend long ago Jordan" he said, his voice sounding weak and exhausted.
"You were always a determined person Tyler. That's what I like about you" he said as he began to pace back and fourth. "You never gave up at anything. You always kept going even though it was pointless."
"What I am doing now is not pointless" he said quietly.
"Oh really" growled Jordan. "Lets examine the situation. I have the emblem, my powers are now beyond comprehension, and the only thing standing in my way to godhood is you. Look at yourself, your exhausted, weak, injured beyond recovery, defeated."
Tyler straighten out as much as he could and looked right at Jordan. "Not just yet."
Just as he was about to jump forward to attack, Jordan held up his ray gun. Suddenly there was a bright flash, and a group of young children suddenly appeared, all trapped behind some sort of shield Jordan was producing.
"One more step" said Jordan as he aimed his gun at the hostages, "and it's ray and bits of children."
Everyone one of the young kids looked at Tyler, all yelling and pleading with him to save them as they cried and screamed.
Tyler stared back at Jordan in pure anger.
"My my" he said, "how human of you. You were weak before you started Tyler, weakened by compassion." Jordan then aimed his gun back at Tyler, giving him the break he needed.
He rolled forward, grabbing a fallen tree trunk in the process. He stood back up right in front of Jordan and swung the trunk as hard as he could, whacking Jordan's arm, keeping him from firing his gun at him.
He then began to bat Jordan hard as he could. The sound of wood and metal hitting echoing through the air. But Jordan quickly recovered and punched Tyler to the ground.
Tyler landed on his stomach, as a aurora of lightning bolts began to cover his body, the same kind that made the shape of his spark.
"Please Tyler" Jordan scoffed as he dusted himself off. "A stick, against a god, pathetic."
Tyler slowly began to sit up, but could only get up to his hands and knees.
"Final warning" said the computerized voice. "Energon depleting, jeopardy extreme. Repeat, extreme."
Tyler groan as he tried to push himself off the ground, but to no avail.
"Please face it Tyler" said Jordan as he took a few steps closer to Tyler. "Your powers are old and weak. What can you possibly do?" he growled as he aimed his gun back at Tyler.
The aurora around him disappeared as he looked back at Jordan. "Improvise" he said quietly.
His hand then transformed into a wrecking ball, as he quickly pushed himself off of the ground, and lunged himself towards Jordan. Before Jordan could even fire, the wrecking ball slammed into him, throwing him to the ground and ejecting a large golden disc into the air.
Everyone watched as it flipped several times before it came back down into Tyler's hands. He was still for a moment, then let out a scream of pain and struggle as his jets struggled to charged for one final shot.
Tyler threw the emblem into the air just as two bolts of energy shot out, shattering it into dust.
Tyler's screams seemed to echo through the air as he fell backwards, the jet engines braking off from his body, as well as several other pieces as he hit the ground.
Suddenly, both Alvin and Jordan screamed in pain as their bodies lit up like the sun. This startled Dave, causing him to drop Alvin, or what they could tell was Alvin. He hit the ground with a thud as the light grew brighter. Alvin's size remained the same, but Jordan began to shrink to human size.
Suddenly, the light seemed to collect on one spot on their bodies and shot up into the air, leaving Alvin and what was Jordan on the ground.
The two balls of light went straight into the air and exploded like a firework display. Everything then went silent. Both Alvin and Jordan laid on the ground, out cold.
A roar then past over head as several military fighter jets flew by.
Tanks and other military vehicle drove up as troops ran by, followed by a military commander.
"Now they come" Brittany said as the troops began to spread out. The commander then went up to a soldier and pointed towards Jordan.
Troops surrounded him, their guns drawn as one tossed him over and placed hand cuffs on the former leader.
They forced him to his feet, where Alvin slowly sat up as they all got a look at Jordan's real face. He looked just as he did as the photo they saw several years ago, but a little older looking, and more skinny.
They pushed him towards a military vehicle, but he stopped and looked back at Alvin and his family as he yelled at them with the same tone of evil in his voice
"LOOK AT YOUR MIGHTY PRIME NOW. HE IS DYING, AND I STILL LIVE."
The soldier kept pushing him as everyone continued to stare at him. Alvin suddenly realized and looked back to Tyler, still in his robot form, sparks erupting across his body, and blue liquid seeping out of his wounds. His eyes were dark, as he laid motionless on the ground.
Ignoring the pain he felt, Alvin ran towards Tyler, with his family following close behind. Alvin went up to Tyler's head and placed his small paws on his massive shoulder.
Everyone soon came up as well and placed their hands on Tyler.
Then in a scared tone, Brittany turned to Alvin. "There's, got to be something we can do for him" she said as tears formed in her eyes.
Alvin looked down sadly, tear drops falling off his face and hitting the ground.
"He's to far gone, nothing can be done now."
Tyler's eyes then sparked back to life, as his head turned to look at Alvin and his family who all held each other in comfort. "Your all alright" Tyler said in a weak, but relieved tone.
Alvin went up to Tyler's head and looked right into his eyes. "Yeah, you did it Tyler, Jordan is gone, he no longer has his powers."
"Then I have no regrets in my life. I am at peace" he said quietly.
"Tyler" Alvin said quietly as Brittany, his brothers and her sisters came up behind him.
"Being you friend for the last two years was both a thrill and a honour. You were like another brother to me. I might as well tell you I was planning to make you my best man at our wedding."
"The honour was mine Alvin. You were like a brother to me as well" Tyler said weakly.
"I would have been honoured to be you best man." Then he adjusted his head to look at everyone else.
"The last few years together have been wonderful. You all are like family to me, like the brothers and sisters I never had. As my final gift, left me give you this."
Then Tyler's left hand opened, revealing a small speck of light that flew over towards Alvin, and hovered in his paws. "This will help you get back home, and when you do, do me a favour."
"Anything" said Brittany as she moved next to Alvin with tears running down her face.
"Live long happy lives together, all of you. Have a family, grow old, you all deserve it. Alvin, Brittany, Simon, Jeanette, Theodore, Eleanor, Dave and Claire, I wish you all long happy lives."
"Thanks Tyler" they all said in unison sadly.
Then the military commander came up with several soldiers guarding him. "Well fought" he said. "You saved the lives of those in this town, and the rest of the world."
"Thank you" Tyler said, his voice getting weaker and weaker. Then Tyler opened his hand, revealing a envelop inside. "Please deliver this for me, the names are on the front."
The commander took the letter and glanced at the names.
"And do me one more favour."
The commander nodded as Tyler summoned the last of his strength. "My real name is Tyler Pauwel. Have those who knew me tell my life, from the bad deeds, to the good, and let me be judged accordingly. The rest is silence."
Then Tyler's eyes grew dim as his head fell back. Alvin and his family held each other, tears flowing from their eyes, their hearts sinking, then they heard a noise come from Tyler. They turned and saw his spark emerging from his body and starting to accended into the sky.
The military soldiers stood up and saluted while Alvin and everyone else held each other in a embrace. Alvin looked in the sky at Tyler's spark and said one last thing.
"He lived as a guardian, and died a hero. Let his spark join the dynasty, with the greatest of Primes."
Tyler's spark then disappeared into a flash of light as tears ran down their face, with some of them starting to wail.
People crowded around Tyler's body, tears running down their faces, not taking notice to dressed and talking chipmunks standing near their feet. Alvin turned to his family and quietly whispered, "I think we should leave now."
Everyone nodded in agreement as they made their way out of the crowd, until they were far enough away so that their exit wouldn't be noticed. Alvin looked at the glowing spec in his and, then threw it ahead of him, making it open into a vortex.
"Let's go home" Dave said quietly as he took Claire's hand.
Each chipmunk then grabbed their counterparts hand, but before anyone jumped in, Alvin looked back towards Tyler's body, knowing that he will never see his best friend again.
Brittany noticed what Alvin was doing and gently stroked his face. He look back at Brittany, her ice blues eyes red and blood shot, with tears pouring out. Alvin stroked Brittany's face in return. Just as they were all about to jump, Alvin suddenly froze, his eyes widening in terror as he grabbed his side.
"What's wrong Alvin?" asked Brittany as everyone turned to see what was happening. Alvin looked up at everyone, his eyes wide. Then to their horror, the saw blood trickle out the corner of Alvin's mouth as he collapsed onto the ground.
"ALVIN!" screamed Brittany as she kneeled down beside Alvin.
Jeanette suddenly gasped and pointed to a spot on Alvin's hoodie that was dark and growing quickly, in the same spot were he was stabbed earlier.
Alvin raised his head, and looked at the wound. "I guess I didn't have a chance to heal" he said as blood trickled out his mouth.
"You going to be fine Alvin" said Brittany as she tried to hold back the bleeding. She turned back to Dave and Simon, almost screaming, "Do something!"
Simon came up beside Alvin and tried to help Brittany stop the bleeding while Dave kept Alvin's head up.
"There is to much blood" Simon said, with intense terror in his voice.
"DON'T QUIT" yelled Brittany as she continued to try and save Alvin.
"Britt" Alvin said weakly as he gently grabbed her paw. She stopped and looked into Alvin's eyes. He gave a small comforting smile to Brittany, as he stroked her face. "It's to late" he said sadly.
"NO, IT ISN'T. DON'T TALK LIKE THAT" screamed Brittany, as she grabbed Alvin's face, "you aren't leaving me."
"Britt" Alvin said looking into her eyes. "I'm so sorry I couldn't marry you, and for breaking my promise that I will be fine. I want you to know this though. I love you with all my love, and I always will."
"Don't say that" said Brittany as she continued to try stop the bleeding. Alvin though wasn't done.
"Simon, Theodore, I love you guys, you were great brothers."
Simon and Theodore kneeled beside Alvin, tears forming in their eyes. "We love you to" said Theodore. "You were a awesome big brother" finished Simon.
Then Alvin turned to Jeanette and Eleanor.
"Jeanette, Eleanor. You two are like my sisters, take care of my brothers, and Brittany."
"Thank you Alvin" Eleanor said sadly. "We will take care of them" Jeanette added.
Then Alvin looked up at Dave and Claire. "Dave, Claire. You are like my parents. Thank you for everything you have done for me, my brothers and the chipettes, and thanks for taking us in."
Claire burst into tears as Dave kneeled down, tears forming in his eyes. "You are my son Alvin. I would do anything for you. I'm so proud of you" he said as he burst into tears.
Alvin then looked down at Brittany, who was still tending to his wound.
"Brittany, it's time to let me go, I love you so much" he said as tears formed in his eyes. Alvin then felt his vision blur as he fainted from the loss of blood.
"ALVIN, STAY WITH ME!" screamed Brittany, but Alvin didn't move. Brittany then hugged Alvin as tight as she could, wailing in agony.
Dave and everyone stood around them, looking down sadly as tears hit the ground. Brittany's cries echoed through the air as she continued to hold Alvin. The minuets passed, as Brittany continued holding Alvin's body.
They slowly raised their head, looking up at the sky. Just then noticed something fluttering out of the sky like snow, looking like little white speck of light.
They all continued looking up into the sky, as more and more specks fell from the clouds. Everyone watched as the specks began to fall around them, looking like tiny stars. The specks seemed to hover in the air, as they began to swirl around and began to cluster in one spot about ten meters away.
Everyone stared in confusion as it formed the figure of women, wearing a bright white robe with red and blond hair. She slowly walked towards Dave and his family.
Brittany looked at the figure in fear as she still tightly hugged Alvin and screamed "GET AWAY!"
The woman stopped about five meters away and looked at all of them with a gentle smile. "Such bravery the two showed today. They gave everything they had to protect the greater good, not thinking about themselves. A sign to show how pure of heart they are" the robed women said as she looked down at Alvin.
"What are you?" said Simon looking straight at the mysterious women.
"I am the Oracle" she replied.
Everyone then remembered what Tyler said about how he got his powers.
"Your the one that gave Tyler his powers, aren't you?" said Jeanette.
The Oracle smiled and gave a nod. "I was also the one that helped you get to this universe. You had to be here for this. Love is the greatest strength, and all of you are filled with love for one another. That is more powerful than any Primes power. Such bravery was shown today, bravery that deserves a reward."
She then kneeled down to pick up Alvin, but Brittany held on.
"Do not worry my child" the Oracle said, "everything will be fine."
Brittany looked at the Oracle then down at Alvin and reluctantly let go as the Oracle picked up him and walked over to Tyler's body.
People that were still around Tyler's body suddenly seemed to fade out of existence as she approached Tyler with Alvin in her hands. She placed placed Alvin on the ground next to Tyler.
She took several steps back raising her hands into the air as she began to glow. Her form disappeared as she transformed into three bright glowing orbs that began to circle around Tyler and Alvin.
Their bodies then lifted of the ground, as the orbs circling them spinned faster and faster. Their bodies began to glow, quickly turning into as bright orbs as well. The orbs that were Tyler and Alvin grew brighter and brighter, as the three circling ones were spinning so fast, the looked like a solid ring of light.
Everyone shielded their eyes from the bright light, not knowing what was happening. Suddenly they felt a huge rush of wind, almost pushing them to the ground. Once the large gust disappeared, everyone slowly uncovered their eyes and saw what almost seemed like gold dust settling around them.
As the dust settled, they no longer saw a destroyed town, they saw a town that seemed like new, nothing damaged, nothing destroyed, it all looked normal.
Claire gasped, as everyone turned and saw her hand left to her face as she slowly raised he right hand, pointing straight ahead. Everyone turned and gasped, Brittany almost collapsing from shock and joy.
There walking towards them, were Tyler and Alvin, both of them alive and well. Brittany had her paws to her face, tears running down it at what she saw. They were all still, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Tyler and Alvin then stopped a few meters away, giving them them big smiles. Brittany took one small step forward, then ran at Alvin, as the tears continued to drop. Alvin braced himself as Brittany ran into him, knocking him to the ground as she hugged him as hard as she could.
Alvin gasped for breath as the rest of his family joined in. "Everyone, get off, I can't breath" Alvin wheezed.
Everyone slowly let go of Alvin, tears of joy rolling down their faces.
"We thought we lost you" Simon said wiping away a tear.
"You guys can't get rid of me so easily" Alvin said as he stood back up. "I'm sorry if I scared you all" he said looking at his family with tears forming in his eyes.
"I'm sorry as well" said Tyler as he kneeled down in front of them. Everyone looked at Tyler and Alvin, glad to see they were alive.
"Alvin, Tyler" said the Oracle as she approached them, her long hair blowing in the breeze. "You two have shown great courage, and disregard for your lives for a greater good. For that you deserve a second chance, and a reward."
Then she turned to Alvin, a gentle smile forming across her face. "Alvin, you risked losing you family, and your bride to end Jordan's evil, and for that you are now a Prime."
Everyone's eyes widened, especially Alvin and Tyler's at what they heard.
"Then that means me and Tyler are brothers" said Alvin as he turned to him with a smile.
Tyler returned the smile, and looked at Alvin. "Then welcome to the Pauwel family, were we do things that go beyond your wildest nightmares."
Alvin chuckled with the rest of his family at Tyler's usual joke. "And welcome to the Seville family, where punishment is funishment."
Tyler and Alvin turned to the Oracle and gave a bow. "Thank you for everything Oracle" Tyler said, straightening out as he looked her with a thankful smile
The Oracle began to fade away, but she smiled as she said one last thing, "Arise Optimus and Rodimus Prime. I wish you all luck in your future."
Then she disappeared from sight, as Alvin looked up at Tyler. "Alvin Dave Rodimus Prime Seville. I love how that sounds."
Tyler gave a chuckle as he looked over his home town. "Everything is as it was before Jordan found the emblem. Lost lives restored, but he will pay for his crimes."
"Where is he" said Alvin looking around, not seeing the vehicle he was being held in.
Tyler looked down at Alvin. "I transported him to a UN prison. Only a few people in this world know what happen. Everyone else never even heard the name Jordan Scott."
Brittany then went up behind Alvin, and hugged him again, as the rest of his family did.
"Don't worry guys" said Alvin as he retuned the hug. "I won't leave again, I promise."
"You better not" said Brittany, still with tears in her eyes. "I won't have you leave again when our wedding is coming up."
Then something caught Brittany's eye. She looked up at Tyler, seeing him looking around, as if looking for someone, but only lowered and shook his head.
'Who is he looking for?' thought Brittany as she continued hugging Alvin.
But she was to over joyed to be thinking about that as she continued hugging Alvin. They then slowly pulled apart as he looked towards his whole family. "Lets go home" he said as a vortex opened a few meters away.
He gently took Brittany's hand as he and his family approached the vortex.
"I'll see you in a few days" said Tyler as he transformed back into his robotic form. "I expect that best man invite is still open."
Alvin smiled as he turned back towards Tyler. "It is, brother. See you soon." Alvin and his family then jumped in, going back home.
There was a small room with a metal table and a single lamp hanging from the ceiling. Jordan Scott, sat in the centre of the table, wearing a orange prison suit. He looked down at his hands, which were shackled tightly, attached to chains that lead down to his feet.
The room was quiet, the only sound was coming from his chains every time he moved. He he kept his eyes on a camera in the top corner of the room, watching the red light blinking on and off as it continued to watch him. He just stared at the camera, watching as the light blinked one last time, before it went dead. He knew what was happening, all he needed was one more sign that he got at thelamp over his head quickly flicker.
He gave a small smile as he continued looking at the front of the room.
"I knew you would show up eventually" he said as he leaned back in his chair.
Tyler then emerged from the dark corner of the room behind Jordan and stood a foot behind him.
"You should know me well enough. I'm very persistent Jordan" Tyler said as he walked to the front of the table, right across from Jordan.
"That was one thing I always admired about you Tyler" said Jordan as he smiled at him. "You always kept going. Even with all those teachers that treated you like dirt, you always kept at, giving all your effort. It's the same story with your family isn't it" he said as a evil smile formed at the corner of his mouth.
Tyler's face suddenly burned with anger as Jordan just stared at him with a sly smile.
"After all, you did do everything they asked, and look at how they repaid you."
Tyler then threw the table out of the way, causing it to slam against the far wall.
He then charged at Jordan as his hand wrapped around his neck. He threw Jordan against wall, and lifted him off the ground with the one hand around his neck.
"You don't get to talk about them" growled Tyler as he continued holding Jordan.
"Your right" he wheezed under Tyler's grip. "Let's talk about Sarah."
Tyler eyes burned with hate as his grip tightened around Jordan's neck, making him struggle for air. Tyler glared at his old friend, his breathing heavy and deep. Just before Jordan was about to pass out, Tyler threw Jordan to the ground. He laid on the ground for several moments, coughing and gasping for air.
After a moment of lying on the floor, Jordan slowly turned and smiled at Tyler. "So, the Tyler Pauwel I knew in public school still exists. And a bit more of a attitude behind him."
Tyler slowly stepped towards Jordan, his fist clenched as his face burned bright red.
"Why the long face Tyler?" Jordan said chuckling as he sat up. "Do you feel bad for what you did to Sarah?"
Tyler then kicked Jordan across the face, making him collapse to the ground.
"Shut up!" growled Tyler as Jordan spit blood out of his mouth.
"I have to give her credit though" continued Jordan spitting out a little blood. "Out of all the years we all knew each other, she hurt you in a way I never could have."
Tyler kicked Jordan across the face again, his anger starting to boil over.
Jordan faced the ground as blood dripped from his mouth. "Why did you that to her Tyler?" said Jordan looking back up at him with curiosity.
Tyler just starred at Jordan, as he tried to calm himself. "You know very well why I did it. I did it to protect her, from criminals, and you" he said looking at Jordan with anger burning in his eyes.
"You know" said Jordan as he slowly got up. "The three of us were like the musketeers. We were always there to help each other. Now it is a man who stands alone, with no one in his pathetic messed up life. Nothing goes right for you does it Tyler?"
Tyler's breaths became deeper as he unclenched his fist. "I still have Alvin and his family, they are my family now."
Jordan just shook his head. "And have you told them everything, about your past, your family, and Sarah?"
"What I tell them is my business Jordan" Tyler said as he turned away.
"That is why you should have joined with me" said Jordan. "You wouldn't have been sickened by these primitive emotions, and you could have destroyed all that have wronged you. The Tyler I knew back then probably would have done that. The one who hated everyone and everything."
Tyler turned back to Jordan. "I'm not that person anymore."
"What I just saw says otherwise" said Jordan with a evil grin on his face.
"People change Jordan. I'm not that social outcast that everyone thought was a freak. I'm a good man now that has a career, and is well respected by everyone."
"You still could have gotten back at those public school teachers that bullied you. I don't think that would have done any harm" Jordan said as he crossed his shackled arms.
Tyler just shook his head. "When I accepted these powers, I accepted the duty to protect all life, no matter the type or what it did. Unlike you, I had a sense to duty, responsibility, honour, and self respect that went back years, even before I got them."
"A lot of people saw that" said Jordan. "Remember in high school? You were committed to your school work, that you ignored everything else except me and Sarah. Girls would flirt with you or always tried to kiss you, but you always pushed them away. That is a teenagers dream, but you acted like it was a nightmare."
Tyler slowly rolled his eyes. "Those girls had no self respect for themselves. I'm not some kind of sex pervert. I show women respect, even if they don't for themselves."
Jordan smiled.
"That is one of the reasons everyone in public school saw you as a freak. If they could only see what you were really like."
Tyler just stood there silent, looking at Jordan coldly.
"We had good times together in school didn't we?" said Jordan. "We always managed to make a good laugh."
"Until you choose your side" Tyler said quietly.
"I would have been doing them a favour. A bunch of teens on a path probably down a the criminal road, I would have saved them time in going to the chair" he said with smile of joy on his face.
"A path you made for yourself now" said Tyler.
Jordan looked up, his face turning white.
"They are charging you with treason and genocide. The death sentence is the expected verdict."
Jordan eyes widened in horror as he fell to his knees, realizing his time was limited.
"How is the great Jordan Scott going to get out of this one?" said Tyler as he moved back into the dark corner.
"Good bye Jordan. I will always remember our friendship" he said as he disappeared into the darkness, leaving Jordan alone once again in the room.
I know it was a long chapter. But I want wanted to get it done, because I think this part of the series is so bad, I actually hate it with a passion. Now we just have the last two stories to go through, then Destiny will be released.
Also, I will be releasing a cute valentines day one shot tomorrow. Keep a eye out, it will be called "Valentine Gift."
