Hello! Hello! there Mechs and Femmes! And welcome back to Transformers Prime: Gate Crasher!

Now I know It's been a LOOONG While since this story got an update, but that's about to change. Right now I'm stockpiling chapters so I can release them after Christmas, so consider this a present from me to you. And In all honesty, thanks for supporting this story for all these years it touches my heart to see the support still here after me struggling to get my act together.

So, after Christmas I will be stockpiling more chapters for this story before the end of the year.

With that outta the way, LET'S ROLL OUT!


Hammer of Dawn

Ever since my ol uncle Ironhide was exposed to that ToxEn he's been getting better and has managed to walk properly, however Red Alert and Ratchet still haven't cleared him for duty yet which I can understand due to ToxEn taking a long time to purge from one's systems. Just glad I wasn't exposed to that green rock of death. He was currently working out with the lob ball that we had around in the base.

"You gotta be kidding me Raf!" I heard Jack call out from the other side of the human area which caught the attention of Miko, Arcee and myself. "You of all people, grounded?!"

"Big time. I misplaced some homework and blew a couple of tests". The young genius replied.

"Translation, A- instead of A". Miko added which made Arcee raise a brow.

"I'm probably spending too much time at the base". Raf pointed out.

"You sure we can't, I dunno talk this through with your parents Raf?" I asked him.

"I appreciate the thought Connor, but you got more important things to worry about. Being Optimus's son and all". "C'mon don't give me that, you're family too kiddo". I pointed out. I then heard Raf's voice cut out for a second.

"Sorry guys, until I improve my grades, I'm off team Prime". And just like that. He was gone.

"Just when we get one back we lose another". Miko said sadly.

"We'll get Raf back before you know it. Don't worry Miko". Arcee assured as she began to grind a whetstone across the blade of Red Queen. "Besides he won't be gone forever, by the time he gets his grade fixed he'll back before you know it"

A moment later we heard the elevator door to the top of the base open up catching our attention, it opened up to reveal Fowler himself.

"Agent Fowler what do we owe the pleasure?" I asked him.

"I'm going to be fair with you son. First you and your father's knockoffs went missing and now we have another problem that needs to solve as always". He said really not in the best of moods.

"Does it involve an orbital laser?" I asked with my arms crossed and he looked at me before remembering my foreknowledge and nodded. I then heard footsteps from behind me and noticed my parents had entered the room. "Hey Dad, Mum. We have a situation". I said to them.


When everyone was gathered in the main hub of the base he began explaining as to what had happened before he arrived here.

"At 1630 hours, a satellite was stolen from a high-security military vault. Surveillance shows the Decepticon Breakdown at the scene". Fowler stated shocking everyone but yours truly.

"Haven't seen him in a while with all the chaos going on lately". Bulkhead pointed out.

"It looks like Breakdown entered the base in vehicle mode with a human behind the wheel". Fowler explained shocking everyone again as he showed the feed of "Breakdown" at the checkpoint with Silas behind the wheel.

"A Decepticon working with a human". Ratchet exclaimed in disbelief.

"And I have a pretty good idea by who. The satellite was Project: Damocles". Fowler said which left one culprit.

"Invented by Silas". Dad answered.

"Guess Former Colonel Bishop wanted it back".

"Didn't you kill him Connor?" Arcee asked as the attention was turned to me as I was merely leaning against the railing with my arms crossed.

"I left him to bleed out when I did enough damage to him. That was the least he deserves". I sighed before continuing. "If my memory serves me right, Breakdown kicked the bucket a while ago. Silas is just using Breakdown's body as his own". I said making everyone look at each other. "Silas is using Breakdown's body, but his damaged human body is acting as the heard of it. So he's merged with your old enemy's body Bulk". I elaborated as the said Autobot was a loss for words. I then looked at my Father.

"I know you don't condemn the idea of me killing another. But Silas is too dangerous to be left alive. The last thing we need is him taking the kids again". I stated.

"I understand Connor". He replied shocking us, including me and Mum. "I once though that Megatron would see the error of his ways. But now know that is impossible, I do not condone the actions you take to do so Connor. But I understand you were human first, and Autobot second I hold no judgement in what you must do. Not anymore".

"Thanks Dad". I said as I nodded before looking back at Fowler. "You were saying Fowler?"

"Damocles is a particle beam cannon powerful enough to slice up the pentagon like a birthday cake or give Mount Rushmore a Mohawk from satellite orbit". He explained as the blueprints were shown on the main console. "It's the work of a madman's hands in Megatron's hands".

"From what's being shown, the cons need a code to use the satellite correct?" I asked Fowler.

"You're right son. The only copy of the code is in headquarters in Colorado". He answered.

"The way I see it, this may be more of a cyberwarfare situation. However we'll need to keep the Decepticons busy as well. Luckily I know this part off by heart". I said with a prideful smirk on my face. "We'll need a team to go after the code but not actually acquire it". I said which confused everyone. "Now bear with me here for a minute. With the cons preoccupied we'll have someone hack into the satellite itself. And I know has the capacity for that". I smirked with my arms crossed. And a second later it clicked with everyone.


With the sun setting in Jasper I drove through the streets in my Vehicle mode with Jack, Miko and Fowler inside my cab. We turned around a corner and we had reached Raf's house with me parking outside across the road from our friend's house.

"Ok we're here". I said as I shut my engine and lights off.

"Cronus, Optimus had just bridged to Colorado. You're all good to go". Arcee said through the Coms

"Copy Arcee we'll start things on our end". I replied as I closed the line. "Ok, you guys go in and I'll keep our backs covered while you're busy". I explained to them as I opened my doors for the three of them to get out.

"You sure you'll be able to handle Silas? From what you told us he's. Well, as you explained it". Fowler asked.

"You have every right to be worried Fowler, but I fought several Cons and even went toe to toe with Bucket head himself. I'll be fine. We gotta make this quick, I'll be with you shortly". I said as I started up my engine and drove off and went around a corner ready to pounce when Silas shows up. I then activated my Holo-form but I wore a military dress uniform and walked up to the front door where the rest of the group was waiting.

"You sure dressed for the occasion huh Connor?" Jack mused which made me chuckle.

"I make this look good". I all I said as Fowler knocked on the door. When the door opened Raf's mother answered and she and Fowler began discussing our reason to be here when the both of them came to an agreement she let us in and we were told where Raf's room was and we knocked on his door. When he opened the door he was shocked to see us. "Fancy seeing you here kiddo". I smiled.

"What are you guys doing here?!" He exclaimed.

"Long story short, we in need of our residential genius". I answered as I handed the file to him and he had a look at it. "Think you can pull it off?" I asked him I merely got a prideful smirk in response he then let us in his room and he got to work on his computer.

After a few moments of typing vigorously on his keyboard he managed to succeed.

"I'm in, but there's too many firewalls surrounding the targeting systems". He said aloud.

"C'mon Son. If the con's make off with the interface code Damocles light's the sky 24/7!" Fowler said to him.

"Let them have the code, without the satellite, the code won't be of much use". Raf pointed out.

"Can't say I follow".

"Long story short, Damocles comes crashing down to earth and burning up in the process". I shorted for him to catch what he was saying. But my eyes widened and I snarled getting everyone's attention.

"What's wrong Connor?" Miko asked.

"Raf, keep working on it. If you all excuse me…I gotta cockroach to squash". I gritted as my Holo-form Disappeared and I was back to my body. I started up the engine and drove around the corner to see Silas aiming the turret in Breakdown's Vehicle mode at Raf's room. I sped up and rammed into him and began pushing him into the sewage ditch so that it was wide open space. I transformed and so did Silas.

"You just don't know when to stay dead do you Silas?" I growled.

"I must admit Connor, now I know what it's like. To be one of you". He said to me.

"Let's get one thing straight, you will never be like me. Never, in a million years". I shot back. "It only took you being at death's door and Butchering Breakdown. Now I'll make sure to rectify my mistake". I said as I activated my battle mask and rushed at Silas. I threw a punch but Silas grabbed my arm and threw me over his shoulder and was about to curb stomp me but I was quick to move out of the way and tackle him to the ground but Silas kicked me off him and threw several punches at my mid-section.

However I retaliated by smacking him in the head with a hammer strike then following up with a solid kick to the chest knocking him down, I dashed over and followed up with a punch but I merely punched the ground and I was smacked in the side by the built in hammer Silas had in Breakdown's body.

"Augh man". I groaned. 'I think I broke a rib or two' I looked at Silas who walked over to me hammer in hand.

"You are quite strong for someone your age Connor, but with the extra additions given to me. You are outmatched". He smirked.

"Yea? Well I love to break it to ya Silas, but you're already dead. You just don't know it". I smirked despite the pain in my side.

"What are you going to do?"

"Oh not me". I said as the sound of an engine entered our ears and out of nowhere Ironhide transformed and decked Silas in the jaw. Hard. "Him".

"The last thing you wanna do is get on the bad side of this Trigger happy uncle Silas". Ironhide growled as he cracked his knuckles while he was standing in front of me protectively. "Cronus catch your breath, I'll teach this punk a lesson".

"Sure thing, I'm gonna sit this one out". I groaned as I leaned against the sewer drain clutching my side.

Ironhide and Silas charged at each other Silas brought his hammer down but Ironhide grabbed the hammer with his bare hand and decked Silas in the face again then followed up with another punch, and another and another before throwing one in the ribs before grabbing Silas by the head and slamming it into the concrete. Ironhide picked him up by the head again and made Silas fall back first on his knee making a groaning sound come from Breakdown's body before it was kicked away.

'"Even controlling Breakdown's body you still show up second best to a bot who's weakened". Ironhide taunted. As I was looking at the sheer throttling my uncle was giving Silas, this was making me smirk.

'Guess Ironhide is back in action'. I thought to myself. I stood myself up and stood beside my uncle as Silas was slowly getting up. He then fired a missile at us causing us to hit the deck as it exploded. We both stood up showing we were barely even scratched by the shot he took. A ground bridge appeared behind him giving him the cue to scram, he ran through it quickly as it disappeared. We both looked up to see that there was a large shooting star like object in the skies, I knew it was Damocles and sighed in relief knowing that Raf had done it.

"Looks like someone's burnt up in re-entry". I laughed as I grunted forgetting that I was still hurt. I then turned to Ironhide.

"I knew some green rock of death couldn't keep ya down Hide". I smirked and he smirked right back.

"Heh, you know me kiddo I don't go down easy. I'll take ya back home myself so Ratchet and red can take a look at ya". He said as he transformed and I changed by to my normal form and hopped in the driver seat and exhaled. Knowing that my work is done for the night. "Guess you're bummed out that Silas is still around huh?" He asked me as we drove back towards Raf's house. I merely chuckled lightly.

"It's like I said to him Ironhide, he's already dead. He just doesn't know it. And he will be dead for good. But I guess there are some things I can't really stop, Silas is an example". I explained. "So I'm not really bummed out as I thought when I faced him again".

"Well, I guess we should be glad we won't have to worry about him anymore". Ironhide said and I merely nodded in response. So I couldn't kill Silas myself, I'm not really worried about it anymore. Besides, he'll be patient Zero for when the Cons have a pandemic on the Nemesis, so when he becomes a Terrorcon he'll be suffering in the worst way possible. That should suffice.

'You're clock has nearly struck zero Silas…shame I couldn't witness it myself'. I thought to myself with a satisfied smirk on my face.


There we have it we're back in buisness!

Now I won't be stockpiling the next few days since it's Christmas Eve, Christmas and my birthday...yea I was born on the 26th of December. But After that there will be more chapters to be posted that I will be working on, and we're almost through Season 2, which is kinda baffling to me. But I hope I managed to deliver here.

So until then, I'll see ya next time!

Cronus Prime Out!

Merry Christmas! And Happy Holidays!
