I've just been so busy lately, earlier I had to put my dog of fifteen years down and it's been pretty sad without her. Love all pets and appreciate the time you spend with them.
Cybertron
Shockwave was sitting at his console, typing away. Usually he would be doing research to the Decepticon cause. This time, he was hacking… into Megatron's personal data slot. No one, not even Soundwave, has ever managed to get past the encrypted firewall.
"Something wrong?"
Shockwave turned to see Sideswipe standing at the doorway.
"It's a hacking program. I'm trying to get past the firewalls on Megatron's files, but unfortunately he's it's difficult to take down."
Sideswipe walked over and took a look. He started analyzing the firewall and code.
"This looks like a combination of both Autobot and Decepticon codes. I recognize a few of them."
Shockwave felt impressed and proud. His son obviously inherited some traits, but now was not the time to compliment as Sideswipe continued.
"These codes have their own self-destruct programming. Even if you did manage to get through, the files will be permanently deleted."
The red Autobot then put his hand to his chin.
"However, Megatron isn't that much of a scientist."
He then turned to Shockwave.
"Have you tried the backdoor?"
"The…what?"
Sideswipe sighed.
"Megatron is confident that every bot will try hacking in the normal way, through passwords and analyzing key data. However, he shouldn't know about viruses if he's this worried."
Shockwave's optic glowed brighter. Send in a virus and decode Megatron's data. It was brilliant. The proud father handed over the keyboard to Sideswipe and the red Autobot immediately began typing. A few minutes later, the Megatron's data appeared.
"Let's hope the Autobot's are already here like we planned." The scientist said to himself.
Sideswipe said nothing but turned to face him.
"Grab your arms and brother. I'll notify Soundwave to do the same thing."
He then stood up.
"This battle will determine the outcome of this war."
Earth
"Mechs. This is our moment."
Optimus Prime was facing all of soldiers in the command center.
"Teletran-1 alerted us to an abandoned but functional space bridge. From there we will be splitting into two teams."
All Autobots started muttering to themselves. Why two? Jazz then stepped forward.
"Optimus is gonna be leadin' one team to Megatron ta get th' requiem blastah. I'm leadin' tha other team ta find tha hostages Megatron's got. Shockwave's got us covered."
That made sense. The Decepticons were being blackmailed after all. Optimus spoke again.
"Autobots… ROLL OUT!"
Cybertron
Sunstreaker just finished arming his blaster. Sideswipe was making a few adjustments to his shoulder canon. After adjustments made, both twins were ready to go. They went to another room where Soundwave and his cassettes were waiting.
"Ready?" Both asked.
They nodded.
"Ready."
This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong
Who would've guessed it
The Autobots were soon on Cybertron. They were soon divided with Optimus going one way and Jazz meeting with Shockwave. Soon both sides met.
"Yo Shocks? Got something for us?"
Shockwave activated a holo-map which showed exactly where everyone was being kept.
"Is Ratchet with you?"
Ratchet stepped forward with Spike and Carly on his shoulder.
"Good. Removing any devices will be painful. I trust you better than anyone else."
Ratchet nodded.
"Let's move out team." Jazz announced.
Everybot rolled out.
I will not leave alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like
It's not too late, it's never too late
Soon, Prime's team reached the spot. Megatron was already waiting for him.
"So Prime, do you really think you can stop me? I had Soundwave's bird spy on you."
Optimus just glared.
"Just because you know doesn't mean you'll win Megatron."
Both yelled at the same time.
"ATTACK!"
Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
Cause it's not too late
It's never too late
Jazz's team eventually reached a small abandoned prison.
"Yo Bee, scout th' area."
Bumblebee went in first. After a careful examination, he eventually found a secret entrance. He went in and found the hostages. He came back and reported his findings.
"An that's why you th' best scout Bee. Ratchet. Shockwave. You two are with me an' Bee. Rest a you keep a lookout fo' bounty huntas."
Then the three bots and con went down the secret entrance.
No one will ever see
This side reflected
And if there's something wrong,
Who would've guessed it?
The conehead seekers kept blasting the Autobots back. Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp kept firing as well, but missed on purpose when Megatron wasn't looking. Meanwhile, Megatron and Optimus were having another 'legendary' battles.
"Give up Prime"
Punch, Blast.
"Never Megatron!"
Block, Dodge.
"You think you've won, but I will be the victor."
Optimus just kept fighting
And I have left alone
Everything that I own
Too make you feel like
It's not too late, it's never too late
The first bot they saw was a young female seeker who was just terrified of them. Thankfully Carly and Spike were able to calm her down for Ratchet.
"Listen carefully sweetspark, I'm going perform a scan on your head. You need to go to sleep for a while." Ratchet explained.
The little seeker just looked up with teary optics.
"Will I see my daddy again?"
Ratchet smiled and nodded. Soon, she was shut down. Carefully and with a great precision, he found a strange device and managed to take it out without damaging her processor. Shockwave put his hand on the good doctor's shoulder. It was a success.
"Let's keep moving." The scientist said.
Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
Cause it's not too late
It's never too late
The battle between Megatron and Optimus was at a standstill. Both sides were exhausted. Then Thundercracker got a call. His optics widened as he heard the news. Then, he flew down and knocked Megatron over.
"THUNDERCRACKER! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?"
Skywarp and Starscream then flew beside him with optics wide. Thundercracker then pointed a null ray at his former leader.
"Consider this my resignation."
But Megatron was too quick. He dodged the blast and fired back.
"Thundercracker! You will be punished for this!"
The blue seeker just smirked.
"I don't' think so."
The world we knew
Won't come back
The time we've lost
Can't get back
The life we had
Won't be ours again
Ratchet just finished the last prisoner. Then he spotted a console that contained blueprints of Omega Supremes' head.
"Shockwave, take a look at this."
The purple scientist came over and did a quick scan.
"This shows where your friend's device is located. Thankfully we can deactivate it right here."
Both scientist and medic began typing at the console. After a few minutes, the device was deactivated. Ratchet smiled. It was done.
This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong
At the battle, more and more Decepticons were lowering down their weapons. Soon, only a handful of Decepticon soldiers were still fighting for Megatron.
"WHAT IS HAPPENING?"
Click
"You're demise is approaching."
Megatron turned to find that Sunstreaker was right behind him with a blaster pointed right at his head. The warlord's optics went big with realization. Slowly shaking, he pushed the yellow Autobot out of the way and ran straight for the room with the Requiem Blaster.
"Oh no you don't!"
Optimus then pounced on Megatron and the two began to catfight. Megatron then pried away from the Autobot leader and grabbed the Requiem blaster. He then pointed it at Optimus.
"IT'S TOO LATE PRIME!"
Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
Cause it's not too late
It's never too late
Maybe we'll turn it all around
Cause it's not too late
Optimus stood tall and proud. Soundwave was hidden in a balcony ready to fire. Sideswipe was in another ready to fire.
It's never too late (It's never too late)
Both snipers fired. Sideswipe hit the Requiem Blaster while Soundwave hit Megatron.
It's not too late
"It's never too late." Optimus whispered
Please review. Happy Autumn
