(Evening everyone, how's it going? Things are getting intense aren't there... but I want to point out that no matter what we choose to do whether is confronting something or doing something, is to help, whether its helping a stranger or someone you care about helping someone should be a great thing to do. I hope that this chapter shows how helping someone in need is better than anything else.

In underground of the Kalos Badlands, a group of Trapinch were munching through stone and dirt as they went until they bit on something… metal… It was a Maximal stasis pod and it surged and sparked while the computer announced, "DAMAGE TO HATCH SEAL AND INTERNALS. ATTEMPTING TO INITIATE EMERGENCY SEQUENCE. ACTIVATING DISTRESS BEACON."
And sent out a distress beacon for anything of Cybertronian origins to pick up. The Trapinch group scurried away from the surging pod, leaving a hole in their wake as they hurried to the surface.
Ariadosus would stand before one of the computers as it announced, "ALERT! CYBERTRONIAN SIGNAL DETECTED."
Ariadosus looked around as he ordered, "Identify."
"SIGNAL IS MAXIMAL STASIS POD." The computer reported.
Ariadosus looked around to make sure he was alone and the only one who could have picked this up and ordered the computer, "Locate coordinates of Stasis pod."
"ACKNOWLEDGE." The computer complied as it went to do so.
As he kept his optics on the map, he failed ot notice a familiar head coming up from behind his right shoulder. He gasped seeing it, but Megatron's robot head was looking over Ariadosus' left shoulder, "You found something, Yess..?"
He then moved the scheming spider away as the computer announced, "EXACT STASIS POD COORDINATES: IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE."
Megatron glared at this as he asked, "Best estimate coordinates?"
The computer zoomed in on the Kalos Region and reported highlighting a certain area, "KALOS REGION: ROUTE 13."
"The Kalos badlands..." Megatron realized as he remembered how he had gotten a call from Jessie, James, and Meowth about needing some Predacons since they found a stasis pod in an oasis within such an area.
Megatron thought about it and wondered… "Closest units."
"SKORUPINOK, SEVIPERELLA, TERRASAUR, BUZZINATOR, AND UNKNOWN PREDACON SIGNATURE." The Predacon computer announced, showing how two of them are much closer than the other three which were three grids away within the Badlands themselves.
Thinking quickly, Ariadosus tried to get himself to go, "I should assist them with the recovery, my programming skills-"
"Are needed here." Megatron interrupted, his back still to the scientist, "Seviperella is more than capable of doing the job herself."
As he repeated his order, "Send her and Skorupinok. While putting Terrasaur, Buzzinator, and our latest recruit on alert on for the signal zone within the Badlands."
Ariadosus glared at Megatron's retreating back and muttered, "Tin Tyrantrum…"
"Treacherous Poison-type…" Megatron shot back as his platform floated away. He was told by Scythcutter how both Ariadosus and Seviperella went with Dr. Zager and two Team Rocket agents to locate the source of Terrasaur's power that had beaten him a few days ago instead of helping to salvage him like the others did.
Megatron doesn't trust either Ariadosus to be left alone… especially how he had chosen a Poison-type for Seviperella instead of choosing something more appropriate or easier to collect without alerting humans, but Unlike the arachnid, Seviperella seems to be acting upon the usual Predacon impulses which would mean that she would not have an outside-the-usual ulterior motive while reprogramming the protoform within into a Predacon as she did with the last one they found earlier. Well... at leas they now have enough forces to work with those three on that project they brought to his attention once the members of their organization left. Megatron was curious on how the organic specimen of the Electric Pokémon species can produce such power inside them without a cybernetic assistance.
Rhynox looked around a section of the Kalos Badlands, seeing obvious signs of Energon vents flowing shooting out to the sky in from the deep ravine. He followed the ravine's walls and figured that's where the Kalos Energy Plant that Clemont previously mentioned to him while they worked on the signal-bypass comm-links together before the inventor's leaving.
Rhynox took another look at the Energon and remarked, "No wonder why the Preds don't mine the place, it's very unstable…"
Foxfire, getting herself out of her distraction, looked and said, "It is understandable… but it's fortunate that the humans haven't discovered this either."
Rhynox nodded, "You're right about that. Might as well-"
That's when their scanners detected a Maximal signal, garbled but it was definitely a stasis-pod's signal and not one of the location kind… It seems to be a distress signal.
Rhynox looked at Foxfire and asked, "Did you?"
"I did." Foxfire answered. Getting the same signal as Rhynox.
Rhynox then activated his commlink, "Rhynox to base!"
But only got static in return, which Foxfire told him, "The Energon interference is too strong for us to get a signal through while we are in the Badlands."
"Okay, looks like we're on our own. Get on… I'm gonna charge through…" Rhynox told her as Foxfire got on and held on for dear life as the Maximal scientist went and used Takedown to reach the stasis pod before the Predacon' base can.
Skorupinok got close to the badlands as his scanners were picking up the Maximal pod's signal, "There it is, just as Megatron said."
"'Just as Megatron said, Just as Megatron said'." Seviperella mockingly repeated, slithering over and asks, "Aren't you sick of groveling over that fossil-headed saurian?"
"Megatron is our leader," Skorupinok reminded her before emphasizing, "He rewards loyalty and punishes those who would conspire against him, as Terrasaur bore witness when he attempted that coup days ago."
Seviperella gave a mock shiver as she joked, "I'm all a quiver."
The she-snake laughed before Skorupinok surprisingly jeered, "You should remember that considering how you got frozen by that child of a maximal."
Seviperella stopped laughing and used Glare on him, paralyzing Skorupinok in his tracks. Getting in close Seviperella hissed, her tail blade closing in, "Don't you ever mention that to me again… Or I swear you'll know how it feels to be eaten by a snake…"
She then tossed him away and continued her way to the pod.
Terrasaur and Buzzinator was getting ready to help the Team Rocket trio get ready for the capture of other Pokémon when they got a transmission from the Team Rocket radio coming from the Predacon base, orders from Megatron, the two of them with their latest recruit would need to join Skorupinok and Seviperella in retrieving another stasis pod near the pair's location while keeping a watch on any maximal presence in the excavation zone.
"Such a pity, 'Specially since it was because of Grumpig that we were able to find one our comrades in this wasteland." Terrasaur said, smirking before he laughed with Buzzinator. He then flew off with a flap of his wings.
"Buzzinator likezz fooling piggybot." Buzzinator giggled, clinking his metal needles together in a form of a clap, as he flew off to the coordinates that Megatron sent him and Buzzinator.
Right behind them was their new comrade, running after the two flyers out of the Oasis.
Absoltron, while scouting ahead, picked up on the distress beacon from a pod and was running as fast as he could when he heard sounds of clicking…
Cautiously, Absoltron looked around thinking, 'Skorupinok? Or a Skorupi?"
Judging by the sense of danger he was receiving from his scythe blade, Absoltron deduced which it was, "Absoltron: MAXIMIZE."
After transforming, Absoltron pulled out his weapons, his quasar cannon and the scythe blade of his Poké mode as a dagger, prepared to ambush the approaching Predacon.
Skorupinok, after getting out of the effects of Seviperella's Glare, hurried after her, but lost track of the slippery snake as he aired his grievances, "Where'd that sour snake go now…"
Absoltron, curious by what he said chose to move and launch his ambush. Coming out from behind a pillar of rock, he called, "Skorupinok!"
Hearing the voice Skorupinok, turned and gasped at seeing the Absol maximal.
"Where are you heading to in such a hurry?" Absoltron asked, glaring at the Predacon.
"Get smelted Maximal! I'm not telling you anything!" Skorupinok shouted as he used Pin Missile: his claws glow white and fire white, arrow-shaped streams of pins at the maximal. Absoltron, sensing the danger with his scythe blade dodged to the side.
"Skorupinok: TERRORI-" He wasn't able to finish as Absoltron swung his scythe blade and a crescent shaped blade of energy shot out nailing the Predacon before he could transform.
Absoltron got up looking at his scythe blade, 'I can see why the Pokémon I scanned made this Razor Wind their signature move…'
Looking at the unconscious Predacon, he remarked, "Sorry I don't have time to play with you."
"What a pity…"
He turned around firing at Seviperella, in robot mode, who moved to the side and shot back at him with an energy tipped dart, nailing him in the chest before he could use his scythe blade. As soon as he did, he felt a horrible sensation as he grunted before falling unconscious.
Seviperella chuckled as she gloated, "You can't fight my cyber-venom, furball. Even if one of you Maximals have a poison resisting ability. But don't worry, I'll be back for you with your precious pod and the latest Predacon within."
She then cackled as she left Absoltron to suffer under her venom's effects, leaving Skorupinok behind as well.
Rhynox and Foxfire reached the location just as the hole that the Trapinch had left revealed the pod. Seeing the damage and hearing the sparking of electricity, Foxfire breathed, "Uh oh."
"Rhynox: MAXIMIZE." Rhynox transformed and immediately he began to feel the effects of the Energon surge.
"WARNING! ENERGON CONCENTRATION IN DANGER ZONE." His computer alerted as Rhynox ordered, "Divert power from weapons array to field dampeners, maximum tolerance."
The computer complied as the surging ceased for now. Rhynox, now feeling better went and lifted some rocks away before pulling the pod out of the hole it was in. He took the lid in hand, sharing a concerned look with Foxfire and opened the lid. Both looked inside and saw the protoform's body in reformation mode: the usual solid skeletal-metal body liquefied and waving as even though it's connected to the Energon-IVs. In the center of the body was a spark, the sphere of electronic positrons that was the source of life for the transformers…
Foxfire looked amazed and asked, "Is this how we all look before our activation-birth?"
"Yes, but… something is wrong. The structure of the protoform shouldn't be in liquid state now…" Rhynox said as he activated the keyboard and began typing to try and get the system to stop sending the Distress signal or at least the pod's onboard computer on. Once he was successful, he ordered the computer, "Activate Protoform. Begin DNA scanning sequence."
"SYSTEMS DAMAGE: TOO EXTENSIVE. ACTIVATION PROGRAM: OFFLINE. SPARK: FADING. REPAIR REQUIRED OR PROTOFORM WILL CEASE TO EXIST IN EIGHT POINT SIX CYCLES." The pod's computer announced. Realzing how short of a time they have, the news caused both maximals to gasp, "No…"
Rhynox began to work as he went and cut a hole into the pod's computer chamber, putting the welder away and pulling out a sort of instrument, he pushed it inside like a syringe before pulled back and Foxfire could see that it had returned with a chip that was fried beyond repair.
Seeing this Rhynox growled, "Slag. The locking chip is fried…"
"What do you mean? What is this chip of locking?" Foxfire asked, confused by Rhynox's distress.
Turning to her, "A locking chip is the reason why we all from cybertron go into stasis-lock if we suffer too much damage. It's a preventative measure to keep the spark safe from any exterior damage or Energon build up until repairs are made. Like going into coma or a deep sleep for humans and Pokémon."
That made Foxfire become more concerned, "Goodness, I am glad we have such a device within us."
"However, Because of the pod's damages, the activation sequence has been deactivated and it's locking chip has been completely burned out, meaning that the protoform is not going to make it past eight minutes thanks to the heavy concentration of Energon on this planet." Rhynox explained making Foxfire become even more worried.
The fox maximal looked up at the older maximal and asked, "What should do to save our comrade?"
Rhynox looked down at the as he admitted, "I don't know…"
He then told her, "We'll need to donate one of our own locking chips to save this protoform."
Seeing the smile on the younger female's face, he explained, "This is very dangerous… if our bodies soak up too much Energon we'll fry every system we have…"
Foxfire thought about what Rhynox said and gave her answer, as wanting to be helpful, "You certainly know more about protoforms than myself…"
"Foxfire: MAXIMIZE." She then transformed and sat down, "I am willing to make this sacrifice for our new friend."
Rhynox nodded as went behind her to get the chip, "This will take a moment. You need to go offline, temporarily."
"I could use a rest… Computer: Activate Repair mode." Foxfire commanded as she went into repair mode as her optics went dark.
While going through repair mode, Foxfire began to have a dream. She found herself in darkness before Rhynox came over with a glowing sphere.
"What's new fox?"
"Rhynox?" Foxfire asked, surprised, "What is going on?"
Instead of speaking, Rhynox placed a hand to his chest and a glowing sphere of electricity pulsed as it floated between his hands. Foxfire stared and asked, "Is that a…"
"Yup, the very thing that makes us what we are, a spark. Every Maximal and Predacon from Cybertron has one, it's what separates us from machines. It also what the humans on Earth would call a 'soul'. And each is different." Rhynox explained as he it flew up.
Foxfire watched as it flew up and an explosion of light occurred where Rhynox recited, "When a Spark goes online there's great joy."
Foxfire was completely taken in by the beauty of the array of light and color. She even saw images of Senera and Fennekin, and her own spark felt great joy.
But then it dimmed as Rhynox told her, "If it extinguishes, the universe weeps…"
Foxfire then saw everything go dark.
Foxfire's optics lit up again as she said, "Oh my… what was that dream?"
"Tell me about it later, you should change back to Poké mode." Rhynox said as he has the locking chip necessary to put for the maximal in the pod.
Foxfire changed back as she watched Rhynox work, while asking, "Will this work?"
"STASIS-LOCK: RESTORED. IMPLEMENTING…" The computer answered as the protoform solidified itself into a robotic part with the spark exposed in the chest. Foxfire saw this and let out a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness."
"Don't celebrate too soon. All I did was buy us some time." He stopped feeling his body surging with Energon effects, "Even with my dampeners up to max this entire area's giving me chip flashes."
Getting concerned, Foxfire asked, "What can we do now?"
"Try and get the activation program online." Rhynox answered as he began typing, "Hopefully the DNA sequencers can find a Pokémon living in this particular area that's not afraid of the Energon."
"Then should we not contact the base to open the teleport gate for the chambers of CR?" Foxfire asked, not liking the idea of leaving one of their own here.
"There's no time… Stasis-lock only slowed down the spark's deterioration. And the gate's energy will make it even worse… We must get it online and into Poké mode fast, before it gets too late." Rhynox stated as he began working on getting the activation program and scanners back online.
Hearing that made Foxfire look at the protoform in fear for their survival.
Rhynox's onboard computer beeped before telling him, "ALERT! PREDACON SIGNATURE: DETECTED."
"Yet another problem we have to deal with…" Rhynox glared, looking at Foxfire.
Foxfire's face hardened with determination and nodded.
Seviperella smirked loving how dismal and dangerous this part of the Badlands of the Kalos is as she mused, "What a lovely spot for the newest Predacon to be born in. A lot better than that oasis."
"I would not count on it she-who-slithers." A voice said as Seviperella looked before seeing the larger than normal Fennekin, which could only be Foxfire.
Seviperella groaned, "Okay One: You're smack talk needs work. And Two: What are you going to do about it fluffy? You don't have your human or her pet with her to help you."
That was the wrong thing to say to Foxfire who gritted her teeth, "I am not as useless as you think I am!"
And sent out a Flamethrower at Seviperella. Seviperella dodged as she hissed, "You sure about that kid?"
"By the way, Cheattor has been wondering something for the longest time. How is it that you dance without legs?" Foxfire asked, before commenting, "You were not as impressive as you were against Cotton-Buns."
Glaring Seviperella hissed, remembering her encounter with Absoltron earlier and the cold shoulder she got from the youngest maximal, "This must be my week for mammals!"
And shot out a glob of poisonous liquid at her with Venoshock. Foxfire dodged it out of the way, landing on the top of a rock pillar, "You will need to be agile than that to catch this fox."
"You don't know what fast is, fluffy." Seviperella shot back, launching herself at him, tail blade glowing purple with a Poison Tail.
Foxfire jumped off and transformed quickly as she turned, drawing her weapon, "I am certain that I know what the definition of Ugly is, and I appear to be looking at it."
And fired her weapon at Seviperella. The rock exploded underneath the she-snake, as the rubble landed on top of her. Foxfire sighed, "That was certainly a close one."
She changed back and proceeded to head back to Rhynox. However, Seviperella wasn't through a she broke out from her rocky tomb by transforming growling, "I've had enough of you Maximals doing that to me!"
She then changed and fired her onboard weapons at Foxfire, who found protection behind a large rock. After catching her breath, Foxfire remarked, "As Cheattor would say: Bouncing breakers the snake is back!"
Hearing the sounds of enemy fire echoing caught Rhynox's attention as he said to himself, "Sounds like Foxfire has her paws full."
"…But I can't stop now… Not when there's a life on the line…" Rhynox went back to work as he typed on the pod's computer console. The computer beeped and announced, "PROGRAM NOT ACCEPTED. SPARK WILL TERMINATED IN FOUR POINT EIGHT CYCLES."
That made Rhynox lose his cool and slam at the keyboard in frustration, 'What can I do?'
As Seviperella finished her assault, she looked and called, "Come on out, Red~ I won't hurt you~!"
"Much…" She added in her under tone as she was about to give Foxfire a dose of her special batch of cyber-venom as she did Absoltron.
Changing forms Foxfire drew her weapon and blindly shot at Seviperella her optics closed as she sent energy blast, fire, and psybeam out. After hearing nothing but the explosions, the fennekin maximal looked to see her quarry disappeared.
She didn't have long to ponder where the older female was as a hand grabbed her forearm and Seviperella headbutted Foxfire, making the younger female groan asking, "Did you just headbutt me?"
"Don't be surprised, kid." Seviperella shot back before she went to slug her which Foxfire rolled out of the way, her fingers began to glow as Foxfire swiped her hand across the female Predacon's abdomen.
"Did you just scratch me?! What are you, some kind of girly-girl brat?" Seviperella asked, angrily before kicking Foxfire hard enough to fall on her back.
As soon as she regained her senses, Foxfire looked up to see the she-snake standing over her with her dart weapon in hand and hissed, "Good-bye, maximal."
She then pulled the trigger. The dart flew, but was quickly caught by the she-fox who went and tossed it back at Seviperella who screamed in pain as the cyber-venom overtook her systems, sending her into the same state as Absoltron did earlier today.
Foxfire sat up and remarked, "A poison-type who poisoned herself… never thought I'd see the day."
Hearing the familiar sounds of wings beating, she turned and saw a larger than normal Beedril flying into view, "Oh no… Buzzinator… and he's heading towards Rhynox and the pod…"
She saw her weapon out of reach, so she concentrated and sent a blast of Hidden Power at the flying Predacon. It landed on target and Buzzinator was angry, shouting, "Who dares attack Buzzinator!? Buzzinator: TERRORIZE!"
He transformed and flew at Foxfire firing from his stinger pistol. As soon as she saw him coming, Foxfire though she would have to just deal with one but heard a squawk and saw Terrasaur flying at her transforming as well, "Terrasaur: TERRORIZE!"
"Oh, give me the breaks already…" Foxfire whined, before changing forms and running as fast as possible as the two Predacons flew after her, firing their weapons.
Rhynox connected a wire from the pod to a port on his shoulder as he began typing a code line before ordering, "Download sequencer program through my central processor."
"WARNING! PROCESS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR CIRCUITRY." The pod's computer warned, But Rhynox, caring more about saving a life than his own, shouted, "Just do it!"
The pod then hummed as it started the download, and immediately Rhynox felt pain through the process, yelling in response to that pain before he was sent flying into a stone wall, hard…
After sliding down, Rhynox heard his onboard computer warn, "CIRCUIT DAMAGED. FIELD DAMPENERS: OFFLINE. ENERGON SURGE. STASIS-LOCK: IMMINENT."
Groaning Rhynox said, "Poké Mode…"
And changed back into a Rhyhorn before falling unconscious.
"DNA SEQUENCERS: ONLINE." The Pod's computer announced as it opened a port nearby and the DNA scanner unfolded above the pod to find a suitable lifeform to scan and replicate for its occupant. The metal body began to liquify again for reformating and replication as the computer kept looking for a compatible lifeform to scan.
Foxfire kept running, taking a moment to turn back to fire either a Flamethrower, Hidden Power, or even a Psybeam at the Predacons chasing her.
The two flyers moved out of the way as the kept chasing. During the chase Terrasaur tapped Buzzinator's shoulder and silently signal him to keep chasing as he will ambush the femme-fox further up. Buzzinator nodded kept the chase on.
After running for so long Foxfire began to lose her breath, 'I… can't… keep this… up… Don't have... agility..."
But then saw a vent and ran towards it. Using as much speed as her body could give her, she went and jumped over the Energon vent as it was about to light up. Buzzinator flew after and was about to when the vent sent a blast of Energon at him, causing him to but shot up in the air, as his body sparked with Energon surge. Foxfire stopped to see Buzzinator hitting the ground with a hard thud.
Foxfire was able to breathe easier before realizing, "Where is Terrasaur?"
She was met with a blast that sent her flying. Looking up she saw Terrasaur flying towards her smirking, "All too easy."
Gritting her teeth, Foxfire glared at him as she said, "Thank you for getting this close to me." And sent out a Psybeam at him. Hoping that, with luck, it would cause him to be confused…
After stopping the beam Terrasaur groaned and was flying into the rock pillar nearby until the bolder on top fell and flattened him.
With a huge relief, Foxfire stated, "And that should end the Predacon presence in the area…"
As she hurried back to Rhynox, unaware of another one following her.
Foxfire returned just as she heard the pod's computer to announce, "NO COMPATABLE LIFEFORM IN RANGE. SPARK WILL TERMINATE IN TWO POINT THREE CYCLES."
Foxfire was horrified by this before going to Rhynox, "Rhynox… please awaken! There's no compatible lifeform!"
Rhynox struggled to get his eyes opened as they widened and he tried to warn, "Foxfire… b-behind…"
Before Foxfire felt like she was being hit by lightning causing her to fall on her side, electricity flwoing over her fur. She turned and saw a Heliolisk walking over to them. Confused, Foxfire asked, "Wh-who are you?"
"Name's Heliosneak, and Ah'm the best shooter around." The Heliolisk said in a western tone, he then called, "Heliosneak: TERRORIZE!"
His head folded into his chest as his forelegs became arms and his back legs straightened and became more mechanical. His tail slid up his body as it changed into a rifle. The frills around his head flattened to look like a poncho over his shoulders and back.
"You are a Predacon?" Foxfire asked, horrified, knowing that the Predacons had reached another stasis pod before this one.
"Got it in one, lil' missy, o' Terras and buzzy found me and got me online. Fight'n de good fight against you Maximals." He then aimed his tail-looking rifle at the Rhyhorn Maximal, "Now hold still fer me so I can git mah job done."
Before he could pull the trigger, they heard a Pokémon. They all looked up and saw a Talonflame flying overhead.
Hearing a local lifeform overhead restated the computer's sequencers and the DNA scanner's beam shot out, enveloping the Talonflame.
"Uh oh…" Heliosneak said as he turned to the pod with the protoform as he exclaimed, "Now hold on dere partner!"
But it was too late as the scanning and replication had been completed and a the new maximal came flying out of the pod with a cry.
Rhynox groaned getting up and asked, confident, "Still feeling lucky, Predacon?"
Heliosneak, glaring turned his rifle on Rhynox only for the same cry attracted his attention and a larger than normal Talonflame came flying out and grabbed him by his shoulders, carrying him off. As he struggled to get out of its grip he was thrusted into the hillside hard.
Heliosneak glared as he yelled, pulling out two revolver-looking blasters, "Where are ya, ya yellow-livered chick-heart!?"
He didn't get a vocal response but saw the flying type coming at him with a Flame Charge, the heat and speed caused intense fire damage to both his weapons and arms.
As he was unable shoot back the Talonflame flew down and spoke with a female voice, "Airblazor: MAXIMIZE!"
The newly named Airblazor would transform. After the wings flamed over the body they went to the back and shrunk in size behind her back. The chest opened to reveal her arms which unfolded and took the place of her Poké mode's wing-shoulders. The Talonflame's head collapsed over the chest while the crest divided into a V shape that covers the connection point between the shoulders and her torso. Her legs unfolded as while the talons turned around to be the back 'heels' of the feet while the robot mode's front feet expanded and formed from the rear former rear talon. Her robot mode head was styled after the Talonflame's with feathers on around the sides of her face while the upper beak over her face like a helmet. Around her optics is the same mask-like markings her poke mode had. The lower half of her face was the usual liquid metal as most other Transformers. On either side of her chin were talon like spikes connected to vermillion colored metal that was on either side of her face before the feathers like a helmet.
Heliosneak glared at the new Maximal and his frills began to stand on end, "Try sum of dis!"
And fired some Thunderbolts in her. Airblazor evaded them all with ease as she cracked, "Good try, but no luck."
As she went aiming her forearms and fired two arrow-like devices at Heliosneak. Both shots hit sending him flying. Airblazor would get closer and fire multiple versions of them as they seem to be added with Razor Wind to make them fly faster and apparently a better job as they reduced Heliosneak down to his parts. And he entered stasis lock.
Airblazor smiled and quipped, "Can't help but fall to pieces on me, the manners of some of these guys."
She then flew back to where her stasis-pod was and landed as Rhynox and Foxfire waited for her.
Airblazor tilted her head a bit looking at them while Rhynox repeated the gesture back as Airblazor asked, "You're… Rhynox, right?"
"How'd you know?" Rhynox asked, surprised that this new maximal knew who he was.
Airblazor looked perplexed while stating, "I'm not sure, exactly… but I think I owe you and your friend my life."
Rhynox smiled assuring her, "Let's say we're even."
That made Airblazor grace a smile on her lips hearing that while Foxfire stared in amazement at her.
When the Badland's team made it back to the Maximal Base, As Foxfire and Airblazor helped Absoltron back to the base, they were greeted by Optimus while Rhynox jokingly remarked, "You were a little late this time, Optimus."
"Fortunately, Airblazor here took care of business." Rhynox said as the newest maximal turned in his direction as he gave a hearty chuckle, "They'll be salvaging Heliosneak for days."
Foxfire came out of the CR chamber while Optimus greeted the newest member of the crew, "Welcome to the Maximals."
"My pleasure." Airblazor said smiling while adding, "Though I'm not sure what to make of all of this, especially these, what'd you call them? Pokémon?"
"It's a lot to fill you up on…" Optimus told her.
"Yeah well… if yer smart. You'd make tracks." Ratitrap added, pointing to the hatch.
Cotton-Buns stepping on his foot as he said, "Don't be so rude! You're gonna scare her away even though she's better at fighting than you are."
Cheattor shook his head as he told her, "Don't pay attention to the rat, he was born with a major glitch."
"Yeah, especially where his conscous is suppose to be." Cotton-Buns added, getting Ratitrap to grimaced and mutter incoharently at the youngest Maximal.
Foxfire approached and said, "I wish to offer my thanks in your timely rescue of myself and Rhynox, Friend Airblazor."
"It's okay, Foxy. You gave up more than you needed to with that locking chip for my pod." Airblazor told her patting her shoulder in a sisterly manner.
Foxfire smiled as she nodded, "But still I must thank you."
Optimus smiled as he assured Airblazor, gesturing to Ratitrap and Cheattor, "You'll get use to everything, including them… Maybe…"
He then offered, "How about a tour of the base?"
Airblazor nodded as she followed her leader around the Maximal base. Foxfire was about to follow when she heard Rhynox remark, "When a spark goes online, there's great joy…"
That made Foxfire pause looking confused before smiling, feeling the joy after days of feeling bad for herself. Absoltron's optics were lingering on Airblazor, mostly her face and immediately a feeling of guilt washed over him, as if he recognized her from sometime before today.
(The latest Maximal (and Predacon) have been revealed. as you guys might've guessed it. Heliosneak is the Poké Wars version of Iguanus as Airblazor is the PW version of Airazor. I know the names might not be very original but it's what I could come up with that fits them. So yeah... I found out that this story is mentioned on tv-trope and I appreciate the person who mentioned it and myself as it's writter as well as the person who mentioned me at the time that I helped Ryujudge write his Transformers x RWBY story-line, and I hope that my other stories will be able to get the same recognition as this and the "Tranformers x RWBY: The Light of Hope" story.
What is this project that Megatron mentioned? Why does it involve electric Pokémon? And what is trouble Absoltron, how is it that he knows this newly born Maximal? Will this involve a certain place in the Badlands? All these answers and more will be found later along the way.
Stay Tuned, as the Journey Continues.)
