Hello, everyone. Centurion Maximo here and welcome back to Transformers: Multiversal Clash. The X-Men have been included in the last chapter. I've seen a few Transformers multiverse crossovers, and surprisingly, the X-Men haven't been seen as one of the universes which actually shocks me a little. I would've assumed that the X-Men would've been included in some fashion.
The group have won the last mission and not only that, but the X-Men have joined them. However, who knows what the Decepticons and their allies are planning. No doubt it's something bad…
Captured
*The Hub. Remus's Quarters. 21:21 pm*
Remus was impressed with the group and their successes since the X-Men joined them, but he was still remaining very vigilant. The Decepticons and their allies were still out there, no doubt steaming about their loss in Salt Lake City. There was no telling what they would do right now. They had to stay on their toes, lest they risk losing something like another stasis pod to them.
Back to the topic of the X-Men, they seemed to be getting along well which was always good. He was excited to have them here. No doubt they will give them an edge in the upcoming battles.
*Unknown Location. Unknown Time*
The Decepticons and Corrupted were still a little on edge from the reveal of the one talking to them turned out to be a human. It wasn't the human bit that had them on edge still, but this Dr. Gravemind was honestly a little creepy. That was saying something. "I wonder what this Dr. Gravemind is working on." Smog Lord wondered.
"Why are you curious about that?' Stormwing asked. "Whatever that human's working on, it'll no doubt be creepy."
"Must you always be so suspicious?" Smog Lord rolled his optics.
"I do when said person makes me nervous." Stormwing admitted.
"I agree with Stormwing." Light Voom said. "This Dr. Gravemind creeps me out."
"I feel the need to remind you all that it was Dr. Gravemind who created Jurassicus, the newest commander for the Corrupted." Vilius brought up.
"That is true." Chaos Hopper cut in. "There's no doubt that this Dr. Gravemind is brilliant."
"I appreciate the confidence, Chaos Hopper." Dr. Gravemind voiced walking into the room.
"What have you been working on now?" Grimscale asked.
"Oh, multiple projects, actually. One is a new Corrupted higher-up named Quakehoof. You can come in now." Dr. Gravemind gestured. With that, A dark red and black Quartonian with a horse headpiece on the chest wielding a hammer that seemed a little taller than Jurassicus walked in. "I live to serve the Corrupted cause." Quakehoof stated.
"Excellent. Another commander for the Corrupted." Vilius had a happy-ish tone in his voice.
"What else have you worked on?" Smog Lord asked.
"This: Plans to modify certain Decepticons or others of our allies to harness certain elements." Dr. Gravemind answered.
"Anything else?" Stormwing asked, still creeped out.
"Oh, I've been working on something with someone specific to deal with these new adversaries that could blend into our other enemies." Dr. Gravemind sported a sadistic grin as something new walked in. Heavy footsteps were heard. What the Decepticons and Corrupted saw was somewhat haunting: It was a large, tall, jet black and silver robot with yellow eyes, a yellow round chest area, what looked to be like shimmering metal plates, and with a slender figure. "What in the Pit?" Light Voom whispered.
"Allow me to introduce the Sentinel MK X." Dr. Gravemind grinned.
"How did you create this?" Slyger asked, impressed with the Sentinel's design.
"With this one, I had a little help from the true genius behind these magnificent creations." Dr. Gravemind moved out of the way to reveal a tall man wearing a white lab coat with a suit underneath, and blue-grayish hair with light graying hair on the sides. "Greetings, I am Bolivar Trask."
"You're the creator of this machine?" Smog Lord asked, curious.
"Indeed I am." Trask smirked. "I call this human ingenuity at it's finest."
"It does look very impressive. Gives off a menacing feel." Chaos Hopper complimented.
"Thank you. These beautiful creations are designed for a single purpose: Hunting and destroying mutants." Trask explained.
"Mutants? Are those like those individuals that deterred us in Salt Lake City?" Stormwing asked, putting a hand to her chin.
"Individuals? Could you please show me these individuals?" Trask asked.
"Come with me." Grimscale gestured and Trask followed.
*The Hub. Main Lobby. 14:45 pm*
"Alright, everyone. I've detected a very specific energy signature besides more Energon." Remus informed.
"Alright, what's this specific energy signature?" Scott asked.
"It looks like… a Minicon panel." Remus answered, causing the Autobots' optics to widen considerably.
"A Minicon?!" Bumblebee, Snowtooth, Brawn, and Thunderpaw exclaimed loudly.
"I'm a little lost, what's a Minicon?" Beast Boy asked in confusion.
"Minicons are small, power-enhancing Transformers that use the process of powerlinking to give their respective Autobot or Decepticon partner new weapons and/or abilities." Brawn explained.
"So, having one may be able to turn the tide even further!" Wasabi realized.
"Exactly. However, the Decepticons have no doubt tracked the same energy signature." Bumblebee grimaced. "Where is the Minicon signature?"
"It's located in… the Sahara Desert." Remus replied.
"The Sahara? The largest hot desert in the entire world?" Kurt asked.
"Yes. I hope you're all prepared for powerful heat." Remus stated.
"I think we can handle some heat to keep this Minicon out of Decepticon hands." Robin responded.
"Alright, but this is very important, so everybody's going on this one." Remus brought up. "This is just as important as the stasis pod was, if not more so."
"Alright, let's do it!" Hiro fist-pumped and the group disappeared in a flash of light.
*Africa. Sahara Desert. 15:21 pm*
The group had already begun to search for the Minicon and the Energon. "Oh, I wish we were in another urban location like Salt Lake City." Plasma Blade complained.
"Come on, you gotta be in places besides urban areas." Cyborg retorted.
"Okay, so you can't handle the desert well. You just need to be outside enough times to really enjoy it." Cyclops stated.
"I actually don't mind the heat that much." Beast Boy commented.
"Why did that Minicon signature have to be here?" Verdant wiped sweat from her head.
"Are you okay?" Killa asked in concern.
"I-I'm fine. I just don't like the heat after a certain temperature." Verdant answered.
"I'm with that. I prefer the big city." Spyke agreed.
"The sooner we find that Minicon signature and the Energon, the better. It would be best if the Decepticons don't find those signatures or us." Snowtooth reminded.
"I've got something!" Cyborg interrupted as he detected energy signatures. "It's the Minicon and Energon!"
A half-hour later, the group arrived and saw a light green metal panel with a symbol in the center as well as more Energon. "This is it!" Killa cheered.
"Yes!" Starfire jumped into the air.
"Thank you for leading us right to the Minicon that will belong to the Decepticons!" Stormwing grinned. "Destroying all of you is simply a bonus!"
"You're not getting this Minicon!" Thunderpaw angrily retorted.
"Isn't that what you said with Grimscale back on Komodo Island?" Light Voom taunted.
"How dare you!" Thunderpaw screamed.
"You're leaving empty-handed, Light Voom!" Fredzilla shouted.
"Oh, are we?" Grimscale gained a grin. A portal opened up and Jurassicus, Corrupted Soldiers, Vehicons, and Sentinels came through.
"What are those things?" High Roller asked out loud.
"I don't know, but they're creeping the hell out of me." Cyborg whispered.
"I'm getting a bad vibe from these things." Fredzilla shuddered.
"Attack." Jurassicus ordered simply. Everyone charged at the group. The Sentinels flew into the air to counter any aerial combat ability the group had. Starfire, Storm, Raven, Alpha Leader and Omega Robo took to the skies to fight the Sentinels while everyone else remained on the ground.
Bravenwolf was fighting Jurassicus yet again and was having a slightly better time at it, but still wasn't really a match for Jurassicus. "Once again, here we are, Bravenwolf: Performing a dance of good versus evil where I win every time we meet."
"Cut the poetry, Jurassicus! You can tell Vilius and the Decepticons you'll never win!" Bravenwolf retorted as he clashed swords with Jurassicus, only to wind up kicked in the chest area by the Corrupted Commander. "Have you still not learned your lesson from our last encounters?"
"We told you you'd be facing all of us, Jurassicus!" Vanetta exclaimed as she and the other Tenkai Knights rushed in to help their leader. Unfortunately, even united, they weren't really a match for Jurassicus as the Corrupted Commander was beating them down with his own techniques. Tributon got thrown into Dromus while Valorn got punched into Vanetta and Lydendor got kicked into the dirt. "As I've said, even together, you Tenkai Knights have no chance against me.
Robin, Beast Boy, and Cyborg were dealing with Vehicon Drones on the ground. The blasts of Cyborg's sonic cannons, Beast Boy morphing into various creatures to knock the Vehicons down, and Robin's various weapons. More Vehicons kept coming however. "They just keep coming!" Cyborg exclaimed.
"We've got to hold the line!" Robin ordered as he threw an ice disc at a Vehicon, freezing it's legs on the spot, giving Beast Boy the chance to knock it down. Still, there were too many Vehicons that kept firing their weapons. Soon enough, the trio were surrounded by Vehicons.
Thunderpaw was in another bout with Light Voom, partially due to anger from the failed Komodo Island mission. Light Voom was repeating his strategy from the Komodo Island which was staying in the air dodging Thunderpaw's blaster shots. "Oh, you can't even hit little old me! No wonder you failed the Komodo Island mission!" Light Voom taunted. Thunderpaw screamed in rage and jumped into the air, managing to grab the Seeker and begin clawing at his thrusters which brought him back to the ground. "Let go, Autobot!" He shouted angrily as he tried grabbing Thunderpaw, but to no avail.
The X-Men were trying to deal with Grimscale in her Komodo Dragon mode. Cyclops was firing his optic blasts at the Decepticon while she was distracted with Shadowcat and Storm. Spyke attempted to fire his spikes at her, but they just bounced off the reptile-themed Decepticon's scales. Grimscale was irritated at this and whacked Spyke away with her tail. She wasn't affected by Storm's powers either as she unleashed an ability the group didn't know about: She breathed black and purple fire from her mouth at the air, shocking Storm into not using her powers for a moment, presenting Stormwing a chance to shoot her down with her weapons.
The ones that took to the air were trying to fight the Sentinels, but it wasn't going in their favor. The Sentinels proved too fast, even for Starfire's starbolts. They were firing energy beams from their heads when they split open. It didn't help that whenever the Sentinels got hit, they quickly repaired themselves. "They're repairing themselves!" Alpha Leader announced.
"We can see that!" Raven retorted before being shot down by the Sentinels. Starfire, Alpha Leader, and Omega Robo went down. Seconds later, they was surrounded by Sentinels.
"You have no chance against us if you continue to fight back." Smog Lord grinned.
"We'll never surrender!" Bravenwolf declared, but was instanly knocked out by Jurassicus in a couple of seconds.
"Bravenwolf!" Everyone shouted.
"You are coming with us, whether you all like it or not." Stormwing said as she picked up the Minicon panel. They all had no choice but to surrender. They raised their arms into the air. A portal opened and they all went through.
*The Hub. Main Lobby. 17:05 pm*
Remus and Charles Xavier had seen the group being captured by the Decepticons and their allies thanks to a newly built spy drone. "I can't believe it." Charles whispered with wide eyes.
"Believe it, Charles. They've been captured, because of those Sentinels. They're going to get out of wherever they're taking them. There's going to be a rescue happening."
"Who will you send to rescue them?" Charles asked.
Remus looked at Charles in silence for a minute. "Me." He answered simply.
Hello, everyone. I hope you all liked this chapter of Transformers: Multiversal Clash. Well, it happened. Despite the group giving everything they had, they wound up captured thanks to the newest ally of the Decepticons: Bolivar Trask and the Sentinels. Knowing this, Remus feels responsible and has decided to take matters into his own hands.
Before anyone asks, I'm using the Sentinels from the X-Men: Days of Future Past film. I'm just not making them overly OP as they were in the film even though they will have the same abilities. In this story, they can be brought down.
Plus, the new Corrupted Commander Quakehoof has been shown, but not in combat yet. That will come later.
Also, Grimscale can breath fire in her Komodo Dragon mode.
So, the Decepticons have the Minicon panel, but will they corrupt it or will it be saved?
As usual, if anyone has any ideas for this story, please let me know in the comments/reviews, or personally PM me. I greatly thank 1602jaw for the support and I hope it continues.
