Hello, everyone. Centurion Maximo here and welcome back to Transformers: Multiversal Clash. Things are not looking good, the group except Professor X have been taken captive by the Decepticons and their new ally: Bolivar Trask and the Sentinels. Remus feels guilty for essentially sending them into a trap. He feels it was time to rectify that mistake.

Sorry if I've taken a while to get back to this story, but I needed a small break from this multiversal crossover, but I'm back to it.

Now, here's the OC contribution list so far:

1602jaw

I'm hoping this list expands and I hope you all like the story so far. It took me a while to get back to this crossover, but I'm back! Let's jump right back into this!

Shortly after the group is taken captive, Remus realizes that if there's any chance to rescue them, he'll have to take matters into his own hands…

Remus To The Rescue

*The Hub. Remus's Quarters. 4:01 am*

Remus was gathering what he would need for the rescue mission. Professor X was waiting for him to exit his quarters. "Are you sure you want to leave the Hub yourself to rescue them?" Charles asked.

"I have to, Charles." Remus replied. "It's my fault they got captured. I have to rectify that."

"They chose to go on that mission, Remus. You shouldn't blame yourself. It will only lead down to a darker path." Charles advised.

Remus sighed, knowing Charles's point. "I know, and I'm trying not to, but it's hard. The fact I sent them there and that they're now in the hands of the Decepticons weighs heavily on me."

"We weren't prepared for the Sentinels showing up." Charles reminded. "The Decepticons obviously have another new ally in their midst."

"That much is obvious." Remus agreed. "Whoever made these Sentinels is top notch in that field. Charles, you'll look after the Hub while I'm gone."

"I understand." Charles acknowledged as Remus walked off.

*Unknown Location. Unknown Time.*

The entire group started to wake up. "Uuuuggghhh…" Alpha Leader groaned. The others made similar noises as they rose from their forced slumber.

"Where are we?" Tributon groggily asked.

"I have a feeling we'll find that out soon." Cyclops commented.

"We've gotta get out of here." Valorn stated.

"Way to state the obvious, Valorn." Raven deadpanned.

"Those Sentinels are different from the ones we're thinking of." Shadowcat commented. "Their color is different, and they seem sleeker."

"I was a little freaked out that they seemed to growl." Nightcrawler added.

"They managed to match us in the air with little effort." Starfire pointed out.

"Those robots were really advanced." Cyborg commented.

"I don't think we did any damage to them." Alpha Leader voiced.

"Worse yet, the Decepticons got the Energon and the Minicon." Thunderpaw growled.

"What is a Minicon anyway?" Madame Chem asked innocently.

"Minicons are tiny Transformers with the ability to link up to larger Transformers and boost their powers and/or unlock new weapons unseen." Bumblebee explained. "The Decepticons aim to use any Minicons they find for their own evil purposes while we Autobots seek to protect the Minicons we can find first."

"Well, that adds another layer of stress to our battles with the Decepticons and their allies, Bumblebee." High Roller groaned.

"We have to think of a plan to get out of here." Dromus said.

"Easier said than done, Dromus." Snowtooth cut off. "We're surrounded by these Sentinels and Vehicons, and I don't see another way out from underground, not to mention the several cameras watching our every move."

In another part of the unknown facility, the Decepticons put the Minicon panel in a high security vault for the time being as they were in the middle of a discussion with their allies. "I must say, Dr. Trask, your Sentinels are a marvelous piece of human-made technology." Smog Lord complimented.

"Thank you, Smog Lord. I am quite proud of them." Dr. Trask smiled.

"They have performed admirably for their trial run." Stormwing grumbled.

"Stormwing, it is thanks to them that we have our first Minicon panel in our possession." Light Voom reminded.

"We must activate it soon." Chaos Hopper commented.

"Patience, Chaos Hopper. The Autobots and their allies have no idea where to find us. Even if they did, they would still be outnumbered by a large margin." Dr. Gravemind reminded.

"A good point, Dr. Gravemind." Dr. Trask grinned.

"He really creeps me out." Stormwing whispered to Smog Lord who rolled his optics.

"Should I interrogate them again?" Jurassicus asked. "I owe Bravenwolf a rematch."

"Later, Jurassicus." Vilius instructed. "Why don't we learn Quakehoof's abilities to prove is he is a combat-focused commander or a strategy-based one?"

"Excellent idea, Lord Vilius." Slyger complimented while bowing. He, Vilius, Granox, and Jurassicus made their way to the combat simulator in another part of the facility while the others remained to discuss what to do.

"Now, what to do with the others." Chaos Hopper brought back up.

"We will question them for information regarding their base, but I'll unfortunately be uninvolved as I am working on my project still." Dr. Gravemind stated seconds before he left the room as well.

"I will talk with them, then." Dr Trask informed.

"How do you know they won't find some way to escape?" Light Voom asked.

"Those fools only got a taste of the power of my Sentinels." Dr. Trask responded. "They don't stand a chance."

Back with the group in the cell, they were still whispering amongst themselves on possible ways to escape their confinement. "Do you think Remus will call other allies to rescue us?" Shadowcat asked.

"Maybe he'll do it himself." Beast Boy suggested.

"Doubtful. Have you seen the guy leave outside the main lobby?" Cyborg rhetorically asked.

"There is a first time for everything." Nightcrawler added.

Suddenly, they heard footsteps approaching and shut their mouths. It turned out to be Dr. Trask and a few more Sentinels. "Well, well, well. So, these are the ones that have been interfering with the Decepticons. Seems to be more like a joke seeing as how you all were defeated so easily thanks to the Sentinels." One of the Sentinels growled at the group, sending a chill down most of their spines.

"You will be stopped, along with the Decepticons!" Bumblebee declared.

"We beg to differ, Bumblebee." Smog Lord stated emerging from the shadows. "You prevent us from achieving our objectives for the last few missions and now, thanks to these Sentinels, you all go down like a pack of Retro-Rats. Not only that, but we got the Energon and the Minicon which will serve the Decepticons."

"NEVER!" Thunderpaw screamed loudly.

"There's nothing you can do, Thunderpaw, or have you forgotten your pitiful performance on Komodo Island?" Smog Lord smugly reminded which got Thunderpaw to clamp her mouth shut quickly.

"Low blow, Decepti-creep." Snowtooth snarled which Smog Lord ignored.

"You're gonna regret capturing us, bub." Wolverine growled back.

"Are you kidding?" Chaos Hopper rhetorically asked walking in. "You're a treasure trove of information waiting to be cracked open!"

"You will not harm this world with your evil!" Storm declared. "No matter what you do, the Earth will fight back with everything it has!"

"Well, it looks like the earth hasn't been doing a very good job." Chaos Hopper taunted with a grin. "I mean, come on. This is the best you could do? If you were really fighting to protect this world, you wouldn't have been captured in the first place."

"We are gonna get out and kick your butts!" Fredzilla shouted.

"Yeah, good luck with that, lizard boy." Light Voom mocked. "You're in no position to promise or guarantee anything."

"That's right. You're nothing but weak beings unable to stand against us without the Autobots' help. Even then, you're no match for us." Light Voom continued to taunt.

Suddenly, a loud boom was heard outside the location. "What the hell was that?!" Dr. Trask shouted as he and the Decepticons left the room.

"Might be more allies of theirs!" Stormwing screamed in response. "Let's get them!" She and the other Decepticons ran to the entrance of the base where they saw a gray, orange-red, red, and denim vehicle shooting light blue lasers at the walls. "What in the spark is that?!"

No one had an answer as they'd never seen anything like it before. Suddenly, the vehicle started moving at high speeds as it continued firing at the base. Inside the cockpit, Remus was shown to be piloting the vehicle. "I love this thing." He smirked. Several Vehicons, Corrupted soldiers, and Sentinels went out to intercept the large vehicle. Instead, they were met with the same powerful laser blasts. The Sentinels launched energy beams from their heads, but they only hit shielding which withstood the beams.

Just then, missiles fired from the vehicle which caused the Sentinels to literally melt down from the inside out. Soon enough, they were nothing to large blobs of melted metal on the ground. The vehicle pushed onward, crashing through the gates of the compound. The Vehicons were blasted to pieces in all directions. The Corrupted soldiers met the same fate. More and more Vehicons, Corrupted, and Sentinels were flooding out however, so Remus decided to stop playing games. "The gloves are off now. Battle Convoy: Robot Mode!" He shouted and the vehicle actually transformed into a robot with yellow eyes and a faceplate with the same color scheme.

"You think that will change anything against all of us?" One of the Vehicons taunted. Remus merely smirked and brought out Battle Convoy's weapons and proceeded to blast the enemy troops to bits within ten minutes. Still, more flooded out and thus Remus hopped out, but not before setting the Battle Convoy robot on Auto Mode. He began shooting up some of the Vehicons with a blaster on his person. Soon, he entered the compound.

Inside the compound, the group were still in the cell when suddenly the wall was busted open. Remus himself ran through the newly-made hole and brought out a sword and proceeded to fight the Sentinels. They fired their energy beams, but Remus was too quick for them and he cut them up into pieces and took them offline by striking their chests and heads. "That felt really satisfying." He then ran to the cell. "You guys okay?"

"Didn't expect yo see you outside the Hub, honestly." High Roller commented.

"Well, here I am. You're welcome." Remus commented back as he blasted the cell door open. The groups exited the cell, but then remembered something.

"We have to get the Minicon panel!" Thunderpaw exclaimed.

"Minicon panel?" Remus raised an eyebrow.

"They have it somewhere in this place!" Vanetta added.

"Then let's go find it!" Remus instructed and the group followed his lead. A half-hour later, they found the Minicon panel and took it from the pedestal. With that, they headed to the outside of the compound where the group saw the wreckage of the compound and the Battle Convoy robot still beating down the enemy troops and knocking them down.

"WOW! THAT IS SO FREAKING AWESOME!" Fredzilla, Valorn, and Beast Boy cheered.

"You had this the whole time?!" Robin, Alpha Leader, and Cyclops shouted at Remus.

"There's a reason I only use this awesome thing as a last resort of mine." Remus stated with a small grin. "Now, let's get out of here." Pressing a button, a portal appeared and the group went through it. Remus was about to enter it when a laser blast prevented him from doing so.

"You're not going anywhere, human!" Stormwing screamed in anger.

"Try me." Remus smirked as he hopped back into Battle Convoy which went into combat position. Battle Convoy went and punched Light Voom in the faceplate, kicked Stormwing into the compound's wall, grabbed Smog Lord and threw him to the ground, and jump-kicked Grimscale in her side. "Bye-bye." With that, he entered the portal.

*The Hub. Main Lobby. 8:12 am*

When the group returned to the Hub, Remus came in twenty minutes later than expected. Robin had something to say to Remus. "I gotta say, none of us expected you to leave the Hub to rescue us. I thought you would leave us in that compound, but you didn't. I-I'm sorry."

"It's okay. All of you just have to train more so this never happens again. In the meantime, this Minicon is going in our vault for the time being." Remus stated. With that, he walked off with the Minicon panel.

"I think we've learned something about Remus today." Jean smiled.

"Yes, indeed." Charles added wheeling over to the group. "Remus is a being of great caring, compassion, and friendship."

Before there was Transformers, there was Diaclone. Hello, everyone. I hope you all liked this chapter of Transformers: Multiversal Clash. Yes, you've read Remus using the Battle Convoy robot from the revived Diaclone toyline that was advertised epically on September 28th, 2020. Anyway, Remus swooped in to save the group, not only with the aid of Battle Convoy, but also with his own wits and skills which surprises them to a very large degree. Not only that, but the group stole the Minicon panel from the Decepticons, robbing them of another advantage.

Looks like all of Trask's arrogance regarding the Sentinels wasn't all it was cracked up to be. However, they will still be around for the future. Also, Dr. Gravemind and Vilius and his higher ups left before the battle. Who knows what Dr. Gravemind is working on.

As usual, if anyone has any ideas for this story, please let me know in the comments/reviews, or personally PM me.

Factoid #1: Diaclone was actually revived five years ago in 2015, and it's been going strong ever since. This makes me want to have a Diaclone series or movie, preferably animated as I feel that if done right, would be pretty fricking awesome.
