Chapter 26.
(Jack POV)
As Raf and I got rid of another picture of Bee on the Web. Then Raf found what was a Cybertronian escape pod.
"Autobot or Con," Arcee said.
"Can't tell resolution is too low," Ratchet said.
"Then let's check it out. Cortana, Mark 6," I said.
"Prepare the ground Bridge, Ratchet," Optimus said.
As I geared up then we went through to check it out. But when we got to the pod. Optimus found a symbol but when he uncovered it. It's a con escape pod.
"Con," I said.
As I turned and found cons looking at us.
"Guys, Cons," I said. As we were getting attack hard.
As some new guy came and shot the cons like nothing. But he hits the energon.
"Shit, fall back," I said. As we hit cover as it blew taking out the cons.
"Wow, Too hot for you Cons," He said.
"Friend of yours," Ratchet said.
"Never seen him before," Arcee said.
"Torching that energon leak. Pretty good plan, Right," He said.
"Except it wasn't your plan," I said.
"It was a random shot that almost fried us to a crisp," Arcee said.
"Worked out didn't it," He said.
"Thank you. Fellow Autobot," Optimus said.
"I don't believe it, You're Optimus Prime," He said.
"Captain of the Obvious," I said. "No shit Sherlock,"
"What is your name, Soldier," Optimus said.
"Smokescreen," Smokescreen said.
"Welcome to Earth, Smokescreen," Optimus said.
As we eventually got back to Base.
"So these are the lifeform we suppose to protect," Smoke screen said after Miko just rushed questions.
"Oi," I said. "This one here save your aft,"

"Sir I think you need to see this," Jarvis said.
"What is it," I said.
"Red Energon," Ratchet said.
"Which is," I said.
"Extremely rare and highly violate. refined into fuel turned to power into hyper speed," Ratchet said.
"We must have Agent Fowler to clear the dig site of all Humans," Optimus said.
But Optimus wanted me to get Smoke screen a vehicle mode.
"That one," I said.
"Nope," Smokescreen said.
"What about that one," I said.
"More Ratchet speed," Smokescreen said.
"Cement Truck," I said.
"If I was a constructacon," Smokescreen said. "Seriously this is the best your planet has to offer,"
"No, But this is Jasper," I said.
XXX
We finally got one for Smokescreen as we got back to base.
"Starscream has come for the red Energon, And I fear he won't be stopped," Optimus said.
"We'll see about that," I said. "Cortana, Site to site now, Jarvis, Send the Zords," As I was beamed there.
"Dino Thunder power up," I said as I morphed as the Zords got here. As I jumped into my T Rex. "Megazord mode," As I combined the Zords.
"You think that is going to stop me," Starscream said.
"I know so," I said. "Tricera Fist," As I threw a punch at him. "Tyranno Tail," As Rexy threw his tail at him. "Tera Rang," As I threw it Starscream knocked it off. As he hit me hard. As I went down. But it didn't take out the Megazord lucky. As I saw Arcee get in.
"Jack you okay?" Arcee said.
"I'm fine, Cee," I said.
As Optimus gets in as well.
"Looks like you zords are having an effect," Optimus said.
"That's what you think. He wants a fight let's give him one. Dimetrozord," As the Brachiozord Let the Dimetrozord out.
"What?" Starscream said. "What is that,"
"You going to find out," I said. "Hit him Dimetro," As it fired up he blade hitting Starscream a few times. "Dimetrozord, Weapon formation," As it combined with me. "Dimetro Blade, Full power," As It hit Starscream hard. Knocking him out of the Apex Armour.
"Fine, If I can't have the Red Energon. No one will," Starscream said as he was going to miss as Smoke screen came and knocked Starscream at the wrong time as the shot Starscream let off hit the container with the Red Energon, As It exploded.
"Damn it," I said. As Starscream left.
We got the Apex Armour thought. As We headed back to base.
"Told you, I only needed to borrow it. The Doc thought I was trying to steal your relics," Smokescreen said.
"Only until your explained your plan. Then I let you, Called protocol." Ratchet said.
"Even if we didn't get the red Energon. Never did the Cons. Or Starscream," I said. "And we got the Apex Armour now,"

It been another 2 weeks. Silas showed up again after getting into Breakdown Cybertronian body some how. But he tried to use one of the satellites to take us out. But Raf hacked in. but that was when it started targeting us. So I took over and used it thrusters to knock it off course missing it's shot on us and made it burn up on re-entry. But after that we have no idea why he is. Only thing we do know if he is with the Cons.
"Found it. Jarvis, scrap that out. Would you," I said.
"I just did, Sir," Jarvis said. As it got wiped.
"Got it," I said.
Then Of course Ratchet went on one of his rants at him for it. That was till Optimus finally stepped in.
"While Ratchet and Arcee are correct, I believe we are all responsible for this incident," Optimus said.
"Us," Arcee said.
"What," Ratchet said.
"We aren't even there," Bulk said.
"Cee got a point Optimus. Not like you guys are using an old abandoned secret military base as you own," I said.
"Our recent efforts have been stopping crisis. We forgot about managing simply matters," Optimus said. "As we have forgot to teach Smokescreen what he needs to know, And over sight that might be corrected. The best way for you to learn about the human world, is from a human,"
"Smokescreen gets his own partner," Arcee said.
"Please, isn't having 3 humans here enough," Ratchet said.
"That's 2 humans and 1 half Human right here, Ratchet," I said. As he goes back to what he was doing.
"I was referring to one already among us," Optimus said.
"Why do I get the feeling, I've just been drafted," I said.
"Then let's go for a drive teach," Smokescreen said.
"Well you letting me drive for a bit first," I said. "See ya back home Cee,"
"You better be," Arcee said.
As we drove out. As I hit the gas straight for home.

"Alright intersection," I said. "Light green,"
"Green for go," Smokescreen said.
"And yellow," I said.
"Go faster," Smokescreen said. As he did.
"Smokescreen," I said as it turn red and we stopped.
"Just messing with you," Smokescreen said.
"HA ha, Asshole," I said as another car was coming over as it was Vince. "Oh,"
"What is it Cons," Smokescreen said.
"No, Someone from School I'd rather not even talk too," I said. Then Vince threw a burger and drove off.
"Seriously," Smokescreen said.
"Let it go," I said. "That's one of the reason why I rather not deal or talk too,"
"Where's your self respect, We got to stand up for ourselves," Smokescreen said.
"And we also have to follow Optimus rules, it's not just protecting humans, Can't harm them either," I said. "Unless it's MECH for me,"
"Who said anything about harming," Smokescreen said.
"Why do I have a feeling you got some crazy Idea for Vince's ride," I said.
XXX
It was done as we got back to base. As I got out as Smoke changed back.
"I am so posting this tonight," I said. "Hey Cee, Check out Vince's new car,"
"That asshole," Arcee said.
"You know, I actually wondered if he wanted fries with that," I said.
"So let me get this straight. You taught Smokescreen everything. Then we for fast food," Arcee said.
"He got drives ed. Work hard, play hard," I said.
XXX
Just as Smokescreen and I was heading back to base.
"My ex boss is going to freak," I said as we pulled in.
"That thing we stuck in his tailpipe what's it called again," Smokescreen said.
"Pizza," I said.
"Will you 2 keep it down," Ratchet said. "Arcee,"
"What's going on?" I said.
"Our sensor picked up a second Iacon signal, But I can't reach Optimus," Ratchet said.
"Arcee, Chromia, Bulkhead," I said.
"Nothing," Ratchet said.
"Cortana Mark 6 Now," I said. As I went and suited up. "Ratchet set the coords. After Smokescreen and I go. Bridge the other back,"
"Ready," Ratchet said.
"Nice, Cortana control surfaces Now," I said.
"All checks are green, Jack," Cortana said.
"Ratchet Fire it up," I said.
As we went through the Bridge.
"Let's grab a relic," Smokescreen said.
"Wow, that's a sword," I said.
"Not just any Sword, that looks like the Star sabre," Smokescreen said. "Made by Solaris Prime,"
"Now for the Bad News," I said.
"What," Smokescreen said.
"Megatron is here," I said. "And something tells me if he couldn't get it by now, Then only a Prime can. We need Optimus here,"
As Smokescreen charged.
"This isn't good. Ratchet, I need Optimus here Now, Only Optimus can get this Relic," I said. "Smokescreen went for the relic and got hit. He called it Star sabre," As I saw a insectacon. "Shit, Ratchet I need backup now," As I hit it.
But another one Showed up for fun.
"Damn it where is that backup," I said. As I found a spot where they couldn't get me. "Cortana armour off Now.
"Jack," Cortana sad.
"Now," I said. As it came off. Then Brought my Morpher Out. Then the Insectacon got hit. It was Arcee. "Never though I'd be glad to see you,"
"What were you thinking," Arcee said.
"Where Optimus," I said.
"Getting to relic," Arcee said,.
As We saw him grab it and it powered up.
"Called it," I said. "Now that is one glowing ass of a sword,"
As the Cons released to rock.
"Optimus, Look out," I said.
But Optimus just cut it in half.
"Did he just cut it in half," Bulkhead said.
"Yeap," I said. "I changed my mind, That is on badass of a sword,"
As Optimus threw a wave at the Nemesis.
"He can do that," Smokescreen said.
"No Idea," I said.
As we bridged back to base.
"I still don't believe it, Even with my own optics," Smokescreen said.
"Maybe Ratchet should check them for you," I said. As I got my armour off at the platform.
"Know What I don't believe, After everything you've been told, You still put a human at risk," Arcee said.
"Arcee, Half human," I said.
"Don't, Ratchet get a bridge for Jack," Arcee said.
"Jack, We got a problem on Voyager," Cortana said.
"Now, what, Ratchet, Forget about the Bridge, Cortana, one to beam up, Energize," I said. As I beamed up to Voyager.
XXX
I finally got the problem sorted out and beamed back home.
Then I headed for bed.
That's all for this chapter.
More to follow.
Stay tuned and safe.
Love Y'all
PEACE!
