A Cybertronian protoform looked around the environment it was in, the protoform didn't have parts that seemed like it could come from a normal vehicle, it was just grey.
"Where am I?" The protoform asked, it looked around and noticed a few trees and other wildlife. "Oh, this must be Earth, meaning that this is where the Autobots are."
Said protoform was an Autobot, however the protoform is a mech, or male, which is extremely rare considering that the population of Cybertronians is a 1 to 12 Male to Female ratio for them, though it is extremely rare and any mech could be considered as an anomaly, especially after the war and destruction of their planets, if anything more femmes would come instead of it being a mech.
The protoform walked around for a bit before he noticed something flying towards him, he squints his eyes to see what it, just an ordinary jet…. until he noticed what else was on the jet, he quickly turns to run away but four missiles hit the ground behind him launching him through a few trees, he rolled around on the ground for a bit still moving forward from his momentum which was stopped when he hits another tree.
The mech groans as he slowly gets up but the jet flies towards him, transforming mid-air she grabbed his face slamming him through that tree and into another tree.
"Disgusting, another Autobot." She said as she held him by his neck, the protoform kicked her in the face which did nothing and she growled slamming him into the tree, she grabbed his legs and slammed him into the ground behind her, she went to stomp on him but the mech quickly turns kicking her which caused her to stagger, he quickly twisted his body to kick her other leg having her fall on both knees, he gets to his feet and right cross her. She falls over slightly, using her shoulder to stop herself, she pushed herself off the ground delivering a hard left cross which resulted in the mech flying back hitting the ground.
The Decepticon walked towards him and she activates her blaster aiming to end him right then and there.
"Blitzwing what are you doing?" Another Decepticon asked as the mech looked up to see another femme, she had some exposed areas of skin, mainly her stomach, the upper parts of her chest, and her thighs, she had black and white armor and had a darker skin completion, there was some spike like pieces on her back or shoulders which curved towards one another and she had police lights on her shoulder, if it wasn't obvious beforehand that her vehicle mode was a cop car, the doors which said police was a part of her arm, she also has some sort of brace knuckles, or knuckle dusters which says to punish and enslave. "We're supposed to bring the Autobite in."
"But Starscream told me to execute the Autobot on sight." Blitzwing said.
"Starscream can blow it out of her exhaust, there's more value in keeping the Autobot alive, after all it is only a protoform." Barricade said as she takes out some handcuffs and walked to the Protoform, she was however stopped by the sound of a roar and a groundbridge.
To her right, there was Optimus, Bumblebee, and Arcee, to her left there was a three headed dragon, a rather large one.
"Is that a Predacon!?" Blitzwing shouted.
"You never said nothing about a Predacon." Arcee said as she aimed at the dragon, Bumblebee took aim as well.
"It appears that we've found the old cybertronian signal" Optimus simply said as she opened fire one said Predacon with the other two autobots.
Dragonstorm didn't feel nothing, the blast slightly sting, but besides that it wasn't enough, she looked at Blitzwing and fired some pulse like fire breath from the middle head which sent Blitzwing through several trees, the left head turns facing Barricade who quickly transforms driving away, the right head watched as Blitzwing flies away.
Each head looks at the Autobots shooting them before they uncombine back into their own form, the Autobots stopped shooting at them to watch, however they didn't have any symbols on them. The red one was around 32 feet, taller than Optimus 28 feet, the other knights were also taller than Optimus.
"Who are you and what's your faction?" Arcee asked, aiming at the knights.
"Yeah." Bumblebee said; however she doesn't have a voice so she spoke with beeps.
"Stand down." Dragonicus said, aiming at the two.
"What did she say?" Skulitron. "I'm kinda rusty with the beeps"
"You really need to join Alcatraz when we teach him things." Steelbane deadpanned.
"Easy you two, these are the Guardian knights, or the Knights of Iacon." Optimus said as she walked to Stormreign. "You must be their leader."
"Did the red armor give it away?" Skulitron joked and she was hit by Dragonicus.
"Yes, I am the leader." Stormreign said. "I'm Stormreign, that's Steelbane, she's Dragonicus and the one with the skull mask is Skulitron. We came here because we picked up an Autobot signal which read ``unknown."
"We saw other signals before, but they disappeared." Steelbane said. "When we got this one however, we knew it was a protoform and something was heading for it."
"We picked up two signals, one for an Autobot and one for a Decepticon, we already have a team heading to get the Decepticon, if it's not too late we may get it to join our side." Optimus said.
"That one read as unknown, never exactly meet a cybertronian as flat as that one." Arcee said pointing to the Mech.
"Well, there's a few shaped like that one, but not to that extent, what's with her anyways?" Bumblebee asked.
"What did she say? I picked up oil, batteries and grandma." Skulitron asked as she looked at Stormreign who simply punched her back.
"That's a mech." Steelbane said.
"A mech? I read about something called that, but it was painted as rumors and legends." Optimus said.
"Well, they are extremely rare, especially after the golden age." Dragonicus said, then she muttered something else under her breath. "Especially after the slave labor."
"The what?" The Mech asked.
"Huh, oh um nothing, so what's your name?" Dragonicus asked.
"Oh um, well, my name is Chrome, and I was made some time back to help the efforts still going on with the planet, a small resistance was there, I was then sent here and assigned to meet the leader of the Autobots." Chrome said. "And it is an honor to meet you Optimus Prime and Stormreign, during my time on the planet I heard many great things about you Optimus."
"So, there's still fighting on Cybertron?" Arcee asked.
"Whoever is left over that is, there's fights everywhere, but the main one is happening here since many of the key players are on the planet." Chrome told her.
Stormreign gets a ping she looks at her forearm and moves her armor back to show some datapad, she pressed a button to check what the ping was, and it was back at their ship, someone was trying to reach her, so she accepted the call and changed comm frequencies.
"What is it?" Stormreign asked.
"After you left Teletraan 1 picked up another signal which is Decepticon in origin." Alcatraz informed her. "I would've told you sooner, but it took me some time to get up here and more time to figure out how to contact you, but everything y'all taught me about this paid off."
"Incorrect, you did not know what to do and I assisted you." Teleetran 1 said.
"Not important." Alcatraz said, Stormreign looks up at Optimus.
"Do you know where the Decepticon protoform is?" She asked.
"Yes, I sent another team to deal with them." Optimus said.
"Alcatraz, they already have a team there to deal with it, do you mean there is another signal?" Stormreign asked.
"Well if you mean the same, a team of Autobots are there." Stormreign said.
"Oh nice, so do you mean the team of Autobots who are in danger because another team of Decepticons cut them off?" Alcatraz asked.
"Yes, the same- WHAT!?" She shouted.
"Well on my way up here and trying to contact you I noticed more cons head there and took out the group of Autobots there rather easily." Alcatraz informed.
"Damnit." Stormreign muttered under her breath.
"Is everything alright?" Optimus asked.
"The Decepticons have made it to the other protoform and defeated your away team." Stormreign said.
"Scrap." Arcee shouted while Optimus called for a groundbridge.
"Ratchet we need a ground bridge and fast." Optimus said.
"No time, we'll carry you there, one of you gets the protoform back to your base." Steelbane said as the knights combined once more.
"Arcee you will accompany Chrome back to base, Bee you come with me." Optimus said and Bee nods.
Dragonstorm picks up the two and quickly flies off as the groundbridge opens for Chrome and Arcee.

The decepticon protoform watched as the other decepticons dealt with the Autobots. A bulky and semi tall tank Cybertronian picked up a smaller cop car Autobot, she was primarily a white color, her car was a white Ford Mustang police car, her doors instead of being part of her arm armor was on her back, she wasn't as revealing as Barricade, only parts of her chest and her upper arm, her lower arm was covered in a sleeve like type of armor, she was light skin and had long spiky hair. The tank had green armor around her body, like many of the femmes she had an undersuit on which is almost as protective as her armor, it covered her whole body, not exposing much flesh, she had a red visor, two four launcher missiles pods, one on each shoulder. She had a machine gun on her right arm, her left arm had another gun which functions as a multipurpose gun, she also had blades connected to that gun. She was pretty thicc and busty, she was around 25 feet, taller than the cop in her hand who was 16 feet, Brawl also has shoulder length brown hair.
On the other was Blackout who kicked an Autobot, named Ironhide, into a mountain. Blackout was a rather large helicopter who had blue colored armor around her body, her armor was a grey color undersuit which didn't expose her skin. She had black long hair and on her back was her main rotor mast and under it was the main rotor blades, she was 33 feet tall, bigger than her opponent who had long brown hair which reached her back, she had dark grey truck parts covering her chest, waist, forearm, parts of her thigh and lower legs, She didn't have an undersuit on, her skin was pretty exposed, she was a tan color and had two canons, one on both forearm which looks different in design.
"This was rather easy." Blackout calmly said as Ironhide shot her, in return she fired her own blaster at her launching her through several trees.
"And kinda boring, I expected them to put up much more of a fight." Brawl said as she blasted Prowl back, she gets to her feet and rolled out the way shooting Brawl in the knee which got her to fall onto her knee, Prowl quickly shoots at her chest and head, but Blackout band handed her into a tree, as she was falling down Blackout grabbed her head and slammed it through the tree and she casually throws her behind herself and she walked to the protoform.
"What is that thing?" Brawl asked.
"It appears to be a protoform, but not a very robust one…. she's pretty flat and non-curvy." Blackout said.
"Don't we have some flat cons on the ship?" Brawl asked.
"Mainly the vehicon seekers, they are curvy though, and have a bit of a bumper." Blackout told her.
"I'm a mech you defect." The protoform growled.
"The hell is that?" Brawl asks while Blackout shrugs.
"Yeah, really interesting and all, just get ready to head back to the ship." Blackout said as she calls for a groundbridge, the three heard a roar and they turn to see Dragonstorm coming their way
"Is that a predacon!?" Brawl shouted, Blackout switched the setting of her gun and she fired a blue blast to Dragonstorm, which sent a huge blast wave against it which knocked her out of the sky.
The groundbridge opens behind the Decepticons and Blackout picks up their recruit and Brawl before she quickly runs into the groundbridge. Dragonstorm uncombined while Optimus and Bumblebee walked to Ironhide and Prowl.
"They got the jump on us…..we're sorry Prime." Ironhide said as Optimus helped her up.
"You do not need to apologize for not being able to get the protoform or bet the Decepticons, it is good enough that you two did not lose your life." Optimus said, Prowl looked at the knights and aimed her gun at them while giving them a stern look.
"Who the heck are you?" Prowl growled, the knights did not falter with their approach, Dragonicus and Skulitron sighs, Stormreign growls while Steelbane didn't do nothing but raise her hand and slowly approached Prowl. "Identify yourselves."
"I hate law enforcements, especially if they're like this one." Skulitron said.
"Easy Prowl, they're with us." Optimus said.
"We're the Guardian Knights of Iacon." Steelbane said.
"So, lower your weapon, not that it'll do much anyways." Dragonicus said.
"Good news is you have one new Protoform, bad news is that the cons also have one." Stormreign said.
"How long were the knights on this planet?" Ironhide asked.
"How long ago was the time period with king Arthur?" Skulitron asked Stormreign but she ignored her.
"Give or take a million years," Stormreign said. "We did take care of some con forces we meant on this planet; we saw your signal pop up time to time after some time."
"So y'all were Decepticon hunting." Prowl said. "May I ask why?"
"Because we're taking care of this b-"Before Skulitron finished Stormreign smacked the back of her hard enough to have her face plant into the ground.
"None of your concern. We were hoping that the war would not carry over to this planet, we have some things we need to keep out of their hands and now they are here." Stormreign said.
"Right." Prowl said skeptically.
"Ratchet, we need a groundbridge." Optimus said and she looked over to the knights. "Would you like to come to the base with us to discuss some more topics about the Decepticons and what you four are doing?"
"Skulitron, Dragonicus go back to the base, Steelbane you're coming with me." Stormreign said, the three nodded, Skulitron and Dragonicus both turned into cybertronian jets and flew off heading back to their ship.
"I thought they didn't have an alt mode." Bumblebee said.
"We do, it just doesn't reflect on our bodies." Steelbane said.
"Optimus we can't just let them into our base, it could be a Decepticon trap." Prowl told Optimus.
"I agree with Prowl, ancient Autobots who never came to help us finally pop up when there are protoform involved and now want to help us, I don't trust them, especially since we don't know where they are operating." Ironhide said.
"Well, if you two don't agree I do have a way to guarantee a 100 percent yes, but it does involve making two Autobots another part of the statistics." Stormreign said while Steelbane gets infront of Stormreign.
"We have a ship in a mountain, we left Cybertron before the war got too bad, we stuck to being here to protect the artifacts that are on this planet." Steelbane said. "And we have personal reasons for not joining until now."
"If you really want to then y'all can guard us and if we do anything suspicious you can shoot us." Stormreign said. "But fair warning, if the first shot doesn't kill, then you better pray to Primus that I can keep my cool"
"At ease knights, we will not keep you at gunpoint, I trust that you two are not Decepticons in disguise." Optimus said, looking at Ironhide and Prowl who put their weapons away, the groundbridge opens and the Autobots head into the groundbridge.

Inside the Decepticon ship, Blackout and Brawl lead the recruit to Starscream who was alone on the bridge.
"Lady Starscream we secured the new Decepticon, he says he's here to assist us in our investigations." Brawl told Starscream who simply smirks.
"Leave us, I would talk to him about what is going on and his role in the investigation and on this ship." Starscream said, Brawl and Blackout nodded before leaving, Brawl muttering.
"I hate calling her Lady Starscream." She muttered; Blackout simply nodded while Starscream growls. Starscream was colored red at the center, blue on the plating of her high heels and gloves, she had silver and white. Her skin was dark tan, she had armor covering her chest, thighs, forearm, and shoulders, her stomach wasn't as covered in armor. Her wings were pointed out behind her and long. She was a tall seeker, as most were, she was around 26 feet, a foot shorter than Blitzwing.
"How do they know what a mech is?" The protoform asked Starscream who walked to him.
"They weren't as educated in the matter as I was, besides looking at any records of their being evidence that we did have some male's humankind had enough males here for me to learn the difference." Starscream said as she placed her hand on her shoulder. "So, tell me Claw, what have you been up to?"
"I've been squashing any Autobot resistance." Claw told her. "I've been doing as you asked until you requested me to come here to aid you."
"I see, was there any signs of Megatron there?" Starscream asked while Claw shakes his head.
"None at all, there was no chatter, no signals, no anything, she must be somewhere else. What do you exactly need me to do?" Claw asked and Starscream smirks before turning away.
"Many of the troops do not respect me as their leader, they think I'm not like Megatron, so I need to get some things to prove that I am as good a leader as Megatron and get the respect I deserve." Starscream said. "And something to ensure that none will oppose me."
"Like what?" Claw asked.
"Frozen Decepticons who are surely on this planet, all powerful artifacts, and the Allspark itself, if I have it then I can maintain order until Megatron arrives." Starscream said, however the door open and Soundwave walked in, she was a foot taller than Starscream, she had long purple hair, a face plate which stops right above her mouth, she had purple lipstick and purple armor, a full body suit covering her body, light purple armor covering her arm, leg, and chest, she was slender, yet she was rather big in the chassis and bumper size. She looks at Starscream and Claw. 'Um, Soundwave, do you need anything?"
Soundwave points to Claw and her face plate displays cars, jets, and tanks.
"Oh, well it appears that Soundwave needs you so she can give you an alt mode." Starscream said. "So, you may get around quicker and blend in. Return to me when you picked a vehicle so you may get your
"Alright Lady Starscream." Claw said as he walked out of the room, Soundwave glanced at Starscream before walking out of the room aswell.

A/N And here is the second chapter, I hope you enjoyed it. If you didn't notice I'm mainly using the height from the bayverse. Making some of them taller, like in the case of the knights who are around Optimus height, and Starscream who is 31 feet, meaning that he is taller than Optimus 28 feet, so I changed it to her being shorter than Optimus, but still tall, same for Blitzwing.
Another thing is that they share designs from different universes, Starscream has the color and look of the knightverse Starscream, but the height of Bayverse and possibly later the color so she could blend in with human jets when she needs to.
Anyways see y'all next time, IceEmperor26 out!
