Chapter 37: Rise of the Insidious

A few minutes after Ava had watched Xanthium's jet mode streak off into the sky, she heard a crashing sound, like someone had been tossed through one of the brick walls of the pyramid. She immediately became worried, wondering who had taken that impact as she waited for what felt like decades. A minute later, a distant sound like that of rolling thunder drew her attention to the pyramids in time to see Insidious drive past a window in his Xtronian tank form, on the inside, up a hill-like floor. Ava widened her eyes in horror as the realization hit her like a boulder.

"Oh, no! He's going for the cannon!" Ava exclaimed, catching everyone's attention to the sight as she widened her eyes in horror.

"How are we going to stop him?" The worry on Tali's mask was evident as she felt the fear start to wrap around her.

"We can't". Ketongu spoke, then looking down in hopeless thought.

From what that prophecy said, only a Prime could hope to stop Insidious while armed with the Requiem Blaster, and two of their Primes had already fallen. Sure, War Machine could try to stop him, but he wasn't, as the prophecy stated, a "lesser brother". As War Machine had stated earlier, he was a weapon on wheels, one of the best of the best. Plus, Insidious's armor was strong enough to deflect bullets, even that of an Xtronian.

"I can't believe I'm actually saying this but... Unless there's some other Prime we don't know about... We've officially lost this war".

Green widened his eyes as he gazed up at the One eyed Toabot, unable to believe that Ketongu of all Toabots had actually said that. "No, no Key, no, there has to be something else we can do"!

Green didn't care WHAT that prophecy said, there was no way Green would be okay with letting the Makutacons win. If he still had those weapons that Armor had given him, Green would've even run up to that Pyramid to stop the Insidious himself. But without any kind of weapon, he couldn't fight the Insidious and expect the smallest chance of coming out alive. That, and he would probably have to deal with a ticked off Angela later.

"Keep...fighting..." The weakened Guardian Toa of Lightning said as she struggled to get on her feet but her sister tried to ease her back on the ground to rest.

"Adhira." At the firm tone, Adhira stopped fighting but did glare up at Valera.

Upon pulling up to the stone door in the top- room, Insidious transformed into his Titan sized Toa Mode, having to crouch down a bit to keep from hitting his head on the ceiling. Insidious growled a bit at the thought of having to crouch down in a room only built for Toa-sized beings. If he could, he'd go back in time and kill his brother Xanthium just as he was building this particular room. But Insidious pushed the thought aside from his mind, deciding to focus instead on the intense happiness within him at the thought of finally reclaiming this beautiful weapon of mass destruction.

Upon spotting the keyhole, Insidious immediately shoved the dagger inside, causing all the hieroglyphics and the dagger to glow a bright shade of yellow. Insidious smiled darkly as he twisted the dagger left, and shoved it the rest of the way in. Four doors opened in the door and made a hissing sound as trapped air shot from the said holes. Once that was finished, the door split in two, sliding into a hidden slot on each wall, and revealing a massive blue, white, and red rifle-like weapon, big enough for Insidious to wield with both hands.

Insidious's eyes brightened like that of a kid on Christmas morning as he approached the weapon he had waited a hundred years to use again. Upon reaching it, Insidious ran his left claw over it, making sure this wasn't a hologram or some kind of trap. Much to his like, this was the real deal. Insidious gazed at the Requiem Blaster with a smile as he grabbed it with both of his claws and picked it up. For a weapon of such immense power, it was surprisingly light. Just as he had remembered it being when he attacked the Turaga Council Base all of those years ago.

Insidious continued to smile brightly at it, for so long that one would wonder if he were in love with the weapon if anyone could see him.

"Yes, it's mine again". Insidious thought aloud. "And still as beautiful as I remember it". He finished, before then looking up at a staircase that led to the top of the pyramid with a dark smile.

Motion at the top of the pyramid caught Ava's attention and she paled the second she realized who it was and what he was holding. Tali, seeing her friend's reaction, looked in the same direction, and felt sick. "Oh no." She murmured, terrified. Adhira, who had finally got back on her feet, started with wide eyes at the sight that had struck dread and fear into everyone.

"The Requiem Blaster." Valera whispered. She never had imagined she would see that accursed weapon again.

111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

Upon reaching the top of the Pyramid, Insidious took no waste in time mounting the Requiem Blaster onto his shoulder and placing his pointer claw on the trigger. As much as he wanted to kill every Toabot below him, Insidious had decided it was only logical to test this weapon out. He could try Xanthium, make him his first target in years. It would even be the perfect revenge for him. But at the same time, it would also be boring, and something he'd prefer to wait on doing for now. Instead he took aim at one of the four larger Pyramids surrounding the centered one of which he stood.

The Requiem Blaster was foretold to be powerful enough to reduce a mountain to ashes. If this masterpiece of art still worked after thousands of years, surely it would do the same to one of the larger pyramids. Insidious immediately pulled the trigger, and the weapon responded by shooting a massive, orange ball of surging energy towards the upper left Mayan Pyramid. The projectile hurled itself towards the pyramid, so fast that he almost didn't see it before the projectile hit the pyramid. Upon impact, a bright light shone where the pyramid used to be, causing him to shield his optics.

When the light was gone, Insidious uncovered his eyes to see a massive pile of sand collapse in place of where the Pyramid used to be. Insidious smiled brightly at the sight and let out a storm of dark laughter that echoed across the field before then aiming and firing at the several random Toabots that waited below.

Biomarvel740: The way the Requiem Blaster is described is similar to the description in Transformers Armada.

Galem: Oh, man. I remember how much damage that thing caused in the show. Even the Minicons were freaked out by it. Poor things.

Biomarvel740: (nods) Yeah.

Z: (pops up out of nowhere) Am I the only one upset that the Requiem Blaster never ONCE appeared in Transformers Prime?

Galem: I think you are, Z. The spark extractor, immobilizor, apex armor and Tox-En were enough to turn the tides of the war in that show.

Biomarvel740: I don't know, I would've been psyched to see that in the show. I was a little disappointed by that.

Galem: (frowns)

Biomarvel740: I'm not saying I didn't like the show. I loved it. I just don't know why they didn't add in a weapon that could've easily raised the stakes even higher. I mean the show is still awesome regardless, but still.

Galem: They no doubt wanted to explore other relics without making it look like they were copying past episodes. Like a certain director we know.

Biomarvel740: Which director? Because Michael Bay never used the Requiem Blaster.

Galem: But he did copy old episodes. Any TF fan can clearly see the G1 episodes in his movies, especially Dark of the Moon.

Biomarvel740: He still didn't use the blaster. And I just so happen to like those movies.

Galem:(frowns) they're okay.

Adhira: Uh, guys? You two okay?

Z: (Smiles) It's their first fight! They're like a married couple!

Biomarvel740: (widens eyes, blushes)

Galem: (stammers, blushing) W...what?! Z, don't be ridiculous.

Biomarvel740: (looks at Galem with a raised eyebrow) You're asking HIM not to be ridiculous?

Galem: He brought it up!

Biomarvel740: I meant, he's ridiculous 99.9% of the time. Asking him not to be ridiculous is like asking a cat what 2+2 equals.

Galem: (laughs) true.

Biomarvel740: (smiles, looks to the readers) Anyways, what did you all think of the chapter?

Galem: Please leave us a review or send us a PM if you have any questions.

Biomarvel740: We thank you all so much for reading-

Galem: and please-

Biomarvel740 and Galem: Have a God-Blessed day! XD :D
