Tekkaman Prime
ESKK: Here we are Chapter 2 of the Tekkaman Prime vs Gatchaman Go movie special. Now then let's continue this by getting started. And remember reviews bring chapters asking for updates sends chapters on vacation.
(Start Ishimura Japan)
The Autobots and the Japanese Transformers were all gathered in the base/house/station as they discussed what needed to be discussed. "Wait back up you want to take what now?!" Sideburn asked as Optimus just got right down to it.
"The Legendisc had originated from Cybertron and possesses a great deal of power that you had yet to discover." Optimus said as he was trying to warn them. "We simply wish to move it to a secure location to prevent the Decepticons from taking it." Optimus said as he'd rather not be forceful on this since they did not show them hostility.
"As much as we appreciate the sentiment this is our heirloom it's been with us for generations!" Override said as she was not going to part with the only link she has left of their parentage. "It's all we have left of..." Override trailed off as Arcee the Autobots were reminded that these Cybertronians were still young.
"I understand the sentiment truly I do." Optimus said as he knew that they were clinging to whatever was left of those who had birthed them on this world. "But we are concerned not only for your safety but the safety of the local populace and the planet at large." Optimus said showing he was looking at the bigger picture.
"We'll defend it with our lives it was Old Man Yoketrons last request of us." Wild-Ride said as they all stood in front of the Golden Disk ready to defend it till there dying breath.
"Look kids we don't want to fight but you need to understand the danger you will be in once the Decepticons arrive." Bulkhead said but Optimus decided to try a different approach.
"Autobots stand down." Optimus said causing the Autobots to look surprised by this.
"But Optimus." Arcee began but Elita stopped her.
"I apologize for the disturbance then." Optimus said and in turn got ready to depart.
"No, we're sorry it's just... it's not easy when you believe you're the only ones of your kind." Convoy cut in as Optimus could agree to this.
(Meanwhile the humans at the same time)
"I can't believe you guys are Gatchaman!" Miko yelled as she looked to Takeru and his team. "This is so cool!" She went on but Nick cleared his throat.
"Miko how do you know about Gatchaman and while we're on the subject what the heck is Gatchaman?" Nick asked as Miko began to chuckle a bit.
"Well couple years back I had a bit of a superhero craze and the top group I read about was called Gatchaman." Miko admitted as she scratched the back of her head sheepishly. "Anyway, there's been two different teams of Gatchaman, and this is like the third team I've seen." Miko said as she looked to Takeru and his friend. "Sometimes they are one sometimes they are five. The White Shadow that moves unseen. Science Ninja Team Gatchaman." Miko explained as she then did a head count on the ones here. "Wait where's the fifth guy the Condor?" Miko asked as she saw one of them was missing.
"He's at work and there are six of us not five." Takeru said as Kasumi nodded to this.
"A superhero at work?" Miko asked as she raised a brow to this.
"Yeah, you don't just expect us to drop our lives to be superheroes do you some of us have to put food on the table." Takeru said and before Miko could argue she found out she had none.
"Anyway, what about Gatchaman?" Shara said getting back on track.
"Oh right, the first team was around during the 70's and 80's and the second team didn't pop up until Social Media became a thing." Miko said as she looked to the group. "Of course, the second team had one member who basically said, 'screw the masks,' and revealed herself to the entirety of Japan." Miko said as Takeru knew about that team.
"Yes, they were quiet... unorthodox in their operations." Takeru said agreeing with Miko on that one. "They didn't have that whole introduction thing which in retrospect was kind of impractical." Takeru said with his arms crossed thinking about it.
"So, what it was fun!" Kasumi cut in with a smile on her face.
"Fun is not something I consider when people want to kill me." Takeru said as Kasumi pouted to that one.
"So, you're the third iteration of Gatchaman." Nick summarized and thus Takeru nodded to this.
"Yes, we are." Takeru said as he looked to Nick.
"Cool." Nick responded to which an odd quiet began to set in.
"So... any of you like Slash Monkey?" Miko asked and thus Kasumi smiled to this.
"Don't I?!" Kasumi asked and thus Nick and Takeru heard this.
"Oh no." Both of them said as they face palmed themselves knowing what would happen next.
(Meanwhile with Evil)
"Huh." Evil said as he was at his newly acquired Earth-Bound Base monitoring what his Radan controlled drones was seeing. "So, there are others with unique abilities." Evil said as he saw Nick and Shara make contact with this group calling themselves Gatchaman. "This might prove most useful." Evil said until he felt a surge and looked to the source.
"Evil!" Omega announced as Evil looked and saw Omega glaring at him.
"Omega what do I owe the surprise." Evil greeted as he looked to his commanding officer.
"I did not authorize this base construction." Omega said as he glared at Evil.
"I know but with how little progress we were making for the invasion I took the initiative." Evil said as he wasn't even denying he did this without permission or authorization.
"Don't push your luck, Evil." Omega warned as he glared at the Tekkaman. "Just because your siding with Radan does not mean you're our ally as you claim considering what was removed." Omega said making it clear that unless Evil had the bug inside him again, he was being treated as a possible security risk.
"Worry not Radan will get the Earth as promised." Evil said as Omega glared at him for this. "Anyway, I need to depart I recently made a small discovery in the human nation of Japan I wish to investigate it before proceeding with any plans for it." Evil said and Omega growled to this but let it be for now.
"Very well." Omega said before cutting the communication line between them.
(Scene Break Autobot Base Next Day)
Time lag was a killer as Nick and Shara had spent the entirety of the previous day sleeping in to get their bodies readjusted to the different time zones. Now they were back at the Autobot base with Pegas oddly enough carrying in some new furniture. "Ok Pegas a little to the left." Miko said as she guised the robot to where to put the object.
"Roger!" Pegas responded as he did as he was told.
"Too far take it back around a little." Miko gestured as she tried to make sure it was perfect.
"Roger!" Pegas responded again and carried out the given task.
Miko kept this up as Jack walked up to Nick who watched this. "What is Miko doing with Pegas?" Jack asked as he was concerned by this.
"Long story short with the number of humans we have in the base, Miko thought we needed more furniture, so she had me go dumpster diving with Ironhide, Bulkhead, and Pegas for new furniture." Nick said as he saw the two at work.
"Shouldn't you help?" Jack asked and thus Nick gave Jack a glare.
"I did." Nick said pointing nearby with his thumb which Nick looked and saw an area surrounded by cleaning items. "I had to give that thing a deep clean before using it and it was not fun." Nick explained as Jack now saw why Nick was sitting around now.
"Ah got it." Jack said with a nod to the Tekkaman. "By the way where's Sierra?" Jack asked looking for the girl.
"She's with Shara trying to talk her into becoming a cheerleader." Nick said and as if on cue Shara and Sierra came walking out but with Shara now dressed in the cheer outfit of the school.
"See I told you you'd look great in it." Sierra said as she looked to Shara who was blushing in embarrassment.
"R-right." Shara said as she was not at all comfortable like this. After all Shara may be able to handle the pressure of battle better but she was still terrible in the public stage.
"Come on Shara you have a talent and I know you have stage fright, but this might be a chance to get over it." Sierra said as Shara turned her head not wanting to go out on any sort of stage.
"Shara." Elita 1 spoke as she approached the group. "What seems to be the problem." Elita asked as she saw how uncomfortable Shara was.
"Oh, um well Sierra thinks I should join the schools cheer squad but... I don't like being stared or gawked at." Shara said as she then looked down a bit. "It makes me feel like some sort of freak show." Shara said as Elita sighed to this seeing this many times in young femmes and mechs.
"Now Share while I don't agree that Sierra should push cheerleading on you." Elita began causing Sierra to get a bit bashful about being pushy. "But can see she's simply trying to help you come out of your shell." Elita said hoping to help Shara blossom. "Sierra and I can both see it as much as Nurse Darby can that you're a beautiful young girl Shara just waiting to blossom into a lovely woman." Elita said as she looked to Shara who heard Elita speak about her.
"But I'm not that great." Shara defended as Elita chuckled to this.
"Perhaps but you won't know until you try." Elita said as she looked to Shara. "Just give it a try and if you don't like it or fail then at least you can walk away with your head held high that you at least tried." Elita said trying to provide support to Shara. Shara then looked over to Nick who then shrugged showing he was letting her make the call.
"Alright." Shara said and in turn Jack could not help but smile for Shara.
"So, what's going to be happening with those guys over on the east?" Jack asked and thus Nick had an answer for that one.
"Monitor for the time being. If the Cons show up, we'll be ready to move in and help them out." Nick said which begged one question for the group.
"So, who's on watch duty?" Jack asked curious to know who was keeping an eye on them.
(Meanwhile Ishimura)
Arcee, Bumblebee, and Moonracer were keeping an eye on their foreign friends as they went about their day. "Well, this is fun." Arcee said with a sarcastic tone as they were ordered to observe and intervene if needed.
"No kidding we get to be in the one town on the entire planet that won't freak out about us, and we're stuck staying incognito." Moonracer said as she clearly did not like being stuck on curve side duty in this town.
They continue their drive around the town as they observed the Japanese transformers, and the people in the town interacting with them. Seeing just how peaceful they acted towards one another it was a site to behold.
They also take notice of their routine, as they patrol the town, would return to base to either rest up and train a bit, but only basic stuff, no doubt that all they knew and didn't think to go further in their own training, as if they face the Decepticons as they are, no doubt they could get over powered, no doubt taking the Golden disk is the best idea to do, but when Optimus gave the order there was nothing they can do as orders were orders of not doing so, no doubt the big bot felt sorry for them and didn't want to take the only thing they had of their former mentors.
The group keep on observing and patrolling unaware to them the danger that was about to come.
(The Destrons)
With the Destrons still lock up in their makeshift cage, how easily they were captured after defeated so easily by the new transformers and the Gatchaman team, with stasis cuff on them, they could not move at all made it easy for everyone for the time being.
Gigatron was the only one that was able to move just a bit, as he struggle to remove the cuffs off of him but he wasn't strong enough to do so as he said, "Damn those other transformers and those pesky Gatchaman, they ruin everything if it wasn't for them we would have gotten the Legendisk at long last to harness its power to take over this world!"
"Don't worry boss, when we get out of this cage, we can try again after those new transformers leave and surely the disk will be ours for sure," Ransack as Gigatron just growled and said, "Be silent!"
Ransack gulped a bit by that with Crumplezone soon said, "Maybe we should leave the boss alone for now little buddy?"
"Good idea," Ransack said as he soon went silent as Gigatron soon gave a silent prayer as he said, "Please my predecessor, hear me, give me a sign that I am still on the right path, tell me is this the way of demon lord Megatron?"
Unaware to him he was heard as a stealth drone was hovering near by watching them as no doubt the Decepticons were nearby as they were about to make their move.
(With the transformers)
Soon enough patrol had ended as the transformers return to base and relax for a bit, as no doubt the Autobots were helping out the Japanese transformers of establishing communication from their base to Autobot main H.Q and the flyer base too.
With Optimus talking with convoy to help improve their situation as he suggest they have their own ground bridge to work with and offer to his team to help build it with Convoy told him he'll give it some thought as he also said if it was even needed at all sense he and the his team has only travel not far from outside the town to face the Destrons when they started trouble or help the Gatchaman when unknown alien life started to invade and attack human civilian.
Not counting the Radan as their activity has been taking place mostly in the U.S due to the connection the Raden's Tekkaman had and were familiar with and their activity were on the down-low, no doubt they have a plan for something it's just a matter of when they will strike again and with those 3 new Tekkaman and Evil they had there no telling what they are doing as well too.
Anyways with Optimus and Convoy keep talking, a certain trouble making transformers decided to slip out of the base and out on the open road to stretch his tires with someone taking notice of this.
(sideburn)
The blue muscle car transformers were diving out on the highway as no doubt the few places to have time to himself as he suddenly spotted a hot red sport car on the road as he pulls up to it as he said, "Hey that's a pretty slick little chassis you got there."
Inside the red sport car, a lady named Kelly was trying to have a nice drive in her new car as Sideburn came up to her and started talking with her car as she said, "This guy again? How many times do I have to tell you to leave me alone creep! The last thing I want is to crash this car!"
"Oh, come on, I just want get to know you bett-*Bonk! - ah! Hey what's the big idea!" Sideburn said as he got tail bump by his brother Wild-Ride as he said, "Sideburn you know better than going out while still being grounded, Convoy will not like this. Just turn back before he finds out."
"Jeez spoil the fun why don't you?" Sideburn scowled as they drove down the road.
"Now!" Wild-Ride ordered and thus Sideburn growled.
"Alright I'm going!" Sideburn called out and thus began to drive back to base. At least for the first mile that was his plan until something caught the brother's attention. Come from behind them a red European Sports Car zoomed past them causing Sideburn to see this.
"Hey, watch it road hog!" Wild-Ride said as he noticed the car was foreign... and red.
"Well hello wind chaser." Sideburn called out and in turn Wild-Ride knew what was next.
"Wait Sideburn don't!" Wild-Ride tried to stop his brother, but it was too late as Sideburn zoomed off chasing after the car. "Sideburn get back here! Sideburn!" Wild-Ride called but was of course ignored and soon Sideburn was gone. "Jeez really wish I had a leash for him." Wild-Ride complained but unaware to him he was being watched.
From afar a sniper scope was on Wild-Ride as the Japanese Transformer drove down the road. Just then the shot went off and thus Wild-Ride cried out in pain when his tires were hit causing him to lose control and swerve. Falling off the railing of the road Wild-Ride transformed to try and regain himself only to be hit by a hammer knocking him down.
Wild-Ride laid on the ground for a bit moaning in pain from the blows. "Jeez did the Destron's break out?" Wild-Ride asked only to look up and saw Breakdown and Shadowstriker standing over him.
"For a Bot with that big of a fist you weren't so tough." Breakdown said with a smirk on his face.
"You'll be coming with us, Lord Megatron has a need of you and your ilk." Shadowstriker said and next this Wild-Ride knew was a hammer to the face and then blackness.
(Meanwhile with Sideburn)
"Wow nice curves European build!" Sideburn called out as he chased after the red car unaware of the danger his brother was in. "Gotta love Europe not as good as Japan for Sprots Cars but a good rival." Sideburn said as he chased after the car. "Those gold rims you must be loaded!?" Sideburn gushed as he saw the gold rims of the car.
The Red Car then drove off towards the dirt road away from the others as Sideburn seemed to have been lured just like last time. As Sideburn got off the road, he soon noticed something off about this. "You like off road babe, you seemed more of the street racer sort to me." Sideburn went on as soon the red car stopped opting Sideburn to stop.
Then to his shock the red sports car transformed revealing it to be Knockout who smirked down at his fellow Sports Car. "Flattered truly I am but I'm not interested." Knockout said and thus Sideburn was wide eyed when his serve transformed into a buzzsaw.
"Oh, crap backing up!" Sideburn began and thus was unable to go further when Brawl and Onslaught stood in his way.
"Where are you going, pipsqueak?" Brawl asked and thus Sideburn transformed and tried to run on foot. This in turn left Sideburn get blindsided by Swindle who bashed into him and restrained him.
"Hey let go!" Sideburn called out and thus found stasis cuffs slapped onto his wrists.
"Sorry kid, the boss want's you for a little trade of his." Brawl said as he smirked down upon Sideburn.
"So, for your benefit I suggest you zip it, and we'll get along nicely." Knockout said and with a nod to Swindle the Combaticon kicked Sideburn in the face knocking him out cold.
(Meanwhile at the Destron's cage)
Kenzan and Override were on guard duty of the Destrons using the former theme park as a makeshift prison. "Bored... oh so bored." Override said as she opened a small hole and saw the Destron's were still inside.
"Look it's not perfect but until we can get something permanent, we're stuck with this." Kenzan said as the patrol vehicle was also on this rotation.
"I know but once we lock them up then what our years, of rivalry comes to an end?" Override wondering what to do one the Destron's are in a more secured prison.
Just then the pair heard a scream as someone a woman was calling out for help. "No let me go you sicko HELP!" The voice called out and thus Override saw this.
"Kenzan!" Override began and thus Kenzan was on it.
"Right!" Kenzan called out and thus drove off to the source of the scream with Override leading the way. They ended up leaving the Destrons unattended as they went to aid whoever was in danger.
(Later)
The two arrived expecting a human-on-human crime only to find Thunderblast standing there. "What the?" Override asked as she saw this and thus Thunderblast smirked to this.
"Sorry you two but I needed to distract you somehow." Thunderblast said as she had the exact voice of the damsel in distress. "Pulled off a good human, didn't I?" Thunderblast said and the next thing the pair of Transformers knew they were electrocuted from behind causing them to fall over. Out of it the two looked up and saw Thunderblast and Slipstream were there holding Stasis Cuffs for the pair.
"You two will be coming with us." Slipstream said and thus they added another pair of Japanese Transformers to the Decepticons abducted list.
(Meanwhile back with the Destrons)
"Any news bug bot?" Ransack asked as he looked to Tarantulas hoping he had good news while Gigatron was sulking.
"I've scavenged this entire theme park and save for using it to try and break the cuffs there is nothing here we can use to escape." Tarantulas said as he tried to find a way out.
"Maybe we can dig a hole." Crumplezone offered and thus Tarantulas sighed to this.
"With what tools? With what use of hands?" Tarantulas said showing he was not happy with dealing with stupid just like Gigatron.
Just then the ground shook and thus the group looked to each other. "Was that you, Crumplezone?" Ransack asked as he looked to his big friend.
"Nope." Crumplezone responded and in turn the group heard what sounded like drilling. Looking to the source they were soon met with the sight of something drilling upward from the ground. Once it was through Arachnid showed up smirking at the group.
"What is Spiderbot doing rescuing us?" Waspinator asked as he looked to the scene before her.
"What game are you playing Black Arachnia?" Gigatron said as he glared at the Decepticon.
"The name is Arachnid, and as for my reason get into the hole now." Arachnid said gesturing to the hole she dug for them. "But first the cuffs." Arachnid said and thus with her blasters shot the cuffs freeing the Destrons.
"Little guys first!" Ransack called out only to be smacked away by Gigatron who went into the hole first. One by one the now escaped Destrons entered the hole and with it to freedom. Rolling her optics Arachnid jumped down but took notice to how Gigatron shared an odd resemblance to Megatron as well as to Nightbird. This might require some investigation preferably without any of them nor Soundwave learning of it.
(Later at the Station)
The communication relay was well underway as Gatchaman were helping build it. The Autobots had headed off a while back though unknown to them a few stayed behind to monitor the young bot's and their humans though remained in disguise at the moment. Of course, Convoy had noticed that Sideburn was missing as he looked around for Sideburn. "Sideburn? Sideburn!" Convoy called out as he saw that he was not in.
"Wild-Ride?" Convoy called but saw Wild-Ride's room with Sideburn was empty. "They should have been back already." Convoy said as he knew Kenzan, and Override were on shift to guard the Destrons. "Black Arachnia?" Convoy began as Black Arachnia appeared from her den.
"What's up boss bot?" Black Arachnia asked as she crawled down from above in her spider mode.
"Have you seen Sideburn and Wild-Ride anywhere?" Convoy asked as he was worried for the two.
"Not since Override and Kenzan went to take over their shift." Black Arachnia said as that was the last time, she saw the pair.
Just then alarms went off signaling for trouble. "Takeru!" Convoy called out as Takeru got on the computer.
"We got a fire in town up in Shinzu Square." Takeru said and thus Convoy nodded to this.
"Ganoh!" Convoy called out as Ganoh appeared. "We got a fire time to roll." Convoy said as he hoped Kenzan would meet them there.
"Right!" Ganoh called out and thus transformed into vehicle mode with Convoy as they got ready to drive off.
"Shouldn't you go with them?" Panko asked looking over to Black Arachnia as he was being held in Kizuna's arms.
"Nah something feels off today." Black Arachnia said as she felt something was very wrong with them. After all Sideburn was the last person who can stop talking without being bribed first. In fact, the entire day in general just felt fishy somehow and Black Arachnia didn't like it and began to suspect the worse.
"Black Arachnia time to go!" Convoy called out and thus transforming into her beast mode with a roll of her eyes Black Arachnia hopped onto Ganoh to drive off and help.
(Later at Shinzu Square)
Convoy and Ganoh arrived on the scene and already started working on putting out the fires. Ganoh handled most of the fires while Convoy used his vehicle mode to help people down from the fire while putting it out. "How did this fire start?" Convoy asked as he kept at the work.
"I don't know there was a blast and then this!" A human called out gesturing to the fire in question.
Black Arachnia was scaling the wall helping the humans down as she made sure they got down without incident. "This doesn't make sense. This fire could not have been done by some stray accident." Black Arachnia said as she knew something was up with this scene. Looking to the crowd Black Arachnia also noticed something, or factually speaking that someone was missing. "Wait where is Kenzan?" Black Arachnia asked as she knew Kenzan was normally the first on the scene for situations like this.
With Convoy and Ganoh were focus on the fires themselves while they did the best they can to support the fire fighters and help anyone that was stuck inside the building as well as Convoy stop said, "Ganoh, we must focus our attention to the center of the flames, hit it with a large burst to cut it off from going any further and prevent water damage to the building."
"Understood!" Ganoh said as he and Convoy aim their hoses to the larger flames and blast it with a burst of water that put out the fire right away with minimal damage overall, and Black Arachnia helping the last of the human out of the building with everyone soon cheer out to the transformers that had saved them from the burning building as a fireman came up to Convoy and said to him, "Arigatou Convoy, another job well done."
"It was our pleasure working alongside you as well," Convoy said before the fire fighter took his head, with Black Arachnia join back up with her teammate and leader and said to them, "Something strange is going on here."
"What do you mean?" Convoy ask her as Black Arachnia soon said, "Anytime a crime or an incident happen, Kenzan is usually here to help out any in danger or stop a criminal from getting away, but he wasn't here at all."
"This is concerning," Ganoh said as he knew Black Arachnia is correct as he knows Kenzan well enough to be here to help with any situation, but he wasn't, and that wasn't all as black Arachnia went on saying, "And there was something else, as far I can tell this fire was no accident. I saw where it started and seen it wasn't cause from the inside but something from the outside like someone blast it."
"Very strange," Convoy said as he thought of what has happen lately with Sideburn and Wild-Ride hasn't return back to base nor answering their com-link, Kenzan was absent of the resent emergency, and a fire was started from the outside, this did not bold well.
His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a jet engine that was coming in low, thinking it was Jinbu for a moment as he turn towards him, only to see it wasn't Jinbu, as the jet coming at wasn't yellow or look like a normal jet but something else and that wasn't the only concern as the plane coming towards them suddenly fire a missile at them as he said, "Take cover!"
The human around heard him and ran for it while the transformers brace themselves to protect the human with convoy and Ganoh took most of the explosion force while Black Arachnia was thrown back by the two as she stood near them while they all were thrown back to the ground with all the humans running while calling out for help from the other transformers.
The dark plane soon came to the area where it fired at while transforming into Nightbird. The femme gracefully landed on the ground while giving a laugh to her handy work and said, "Too easy."
Convoy and Ganoh were groaning as it seemed like they were about to recover. But Nightbird acted quickly as she pulled out some Stasis Cuffs and quickly put one on Ganoh, while Nightbird said, "You stay there while I put these on your friend and leader."
Turn to Convoy as she went over to him and about to put the cuffs on until a spider leg came out of nowhere and hit the cuff away making Nightbird jump back after that as she came face to face with Black Arachnia as she said, "Oh dear it seems I had missed one of you then."
"Who are you, was it you that cause that fire?" Black Arachnia question the Con Queen as nightbird said to her, "Yes it was, I figure something like this would draw the rest of you out, but it seems I was mistaken as it as just the 3 of you here without that yellow one, and as for who I am? The names Nightbird, Commander of the Decepticons."
This surprised Black Arachnia as she took in Nightbird words and soon realize what she had said as she prepared a fighting stands and said, "What have you done to my friends?"
"They are safe for the time being, but can say the same thing about you," Nightbird said with a smile as she hasn't pull out her blaster or melee weapon yet as she wanted to tease this young Cybertronian. Black Arachnia came at the Decepticon Femme Leader and strike at her with her hands, feet, and spider legs as Nightbird dodge them. She was a little taken back by her fighting style but not completely out match as comparing this to sparing with Arachnid, it was just child's play. Nightbird soon grabbed Black Arachnia's leg while it was in mid kick surprising the Spider bot.
Nightbird push the leg back as she threw her own strike at Black Arachnia. Nightbird struck the femme beastformer with great force leaving Black Arachnia stunned and shocked by the hits that she could not counter against.
Black Arachnia made herself leap back away from the Con to catch her breath as Nightbird just stood there as she was giving the spider transformer a fighting chance while Black Arachnia took a moment to recover herself as she look to the Con Queen while she just raise her arm and wave her hand a bit saying "Come get some" and that what Black Arachnia did, or at least try too as Nightbird block and counter against her.
Black Arachnia didn't give up yet as she give it all she got against Nightbird as their speeds soon matched while also shot one of her spider legs over at her, Nightbird title her head a bit to avoid it while also getting scratched on her cheek with Black Arachnia saw she got a hit in as she said, "Got ya!"
Nightbird didn't seem mad at this as she just wipe at it a bit rubbing her spilt Energon on her fingertips as she said, "That you did, I suppose I should stop playing around with you then."
"Wait, what?" Black Arachnia said as it seem Nightbird was taking it easy on her as she brought out her blade and slash at the spider bot while she dodge it the best she could, even bend backwards to avoid a horizontal slash at it using her black legs to support her while also doing a flip that landed a kick on Nightbird, but hardly did a think to her as she just keep coming, as soon enough Nightbird gotten a cut in at Black Arachnia's arm as she cry out and back away.
Back away while holding her injured arm as Nightbird smile at this and said, "I got to emit you had lasted longer than another certain spider insecticon type that I know of, certainly got more of a backbone than her, but in the end, your skills aren't quite as sharp or deadly as hers, so I best wrap this up."
As she brought out her blasters while taking aim at Black Arachnia, and about to fire at her until a shot was aimed at her and fired too as she quickly dodge it when she heard it and turn to see Arcee, Bulkhead, bumblebee, and Firestar had come forth and start to engage her in combat, as Nightbird soon ran while firing at them, but only be out gun as they all had aim at her and fire their weapons while Firestar came at her with her sword as Nightbird block her strike before retreating back next to Ganoh as she whisper in her com-link, "Soundwave open a ground bridge at my location."
She stood up and said, "Well then, can say that I'm surprise as sooner or later you Autobots were becoming around eventually, so I guess this is as good a time as any to tell you."
"Tell us what?" Arcee said as she has her blaster aimed at the Con Queen, with Convoy standing up thanks to bulkhead and Bumblebees help as he listened in as Nightbird give a small laugh while she said, "We have captured all of the other Cybertronian born of this world, if the golden disk isn't handed over to us within the next rotation, then they will be our prisoners forever to do as we please with, we will await for your reply."
Suddenly as Nightbird grab the fallen Cybertronian bot and leap up with him as a ground bridge open up underneath her as she and Ganoh soon fell down into it as Arcee try to reach her before the portal closes, but it did anyways as soon as Nightbird and Ganoh had soon vanish without a tract as Arcee said, "No!"
Black Arachnia was left wide eyed at this as not only Ganoh was gone but so was the others leaving just herself Convoy, and Jinbu. Speaking off Black Arachnia ran over to Convoy in a panic. "Convoy!" Black Arachnia called out as she ran over to Convoy and saw he was hurt.
"We need to get the doc on this." Bulkhead said as Bumblebee buzzed in agreement.
"Don't worry he'll be fine." Arcee said to the younger Femme who nodded but was still worried.
(Scene Break the Nemesis)
"Keep a close eye on them." Nightbird ordered as they're hostages were now bound in the brig.
"Yes, Air Commander." The Vehicons responded as Nightbird was holding a vial of spilled Energon taken from her weapons. As she walked, she arrived at the guest quarters and saw the Destrons making themselves at home. "Gigatron." Nightbird greeted as Gigatron heard this and bowed to the Femme.
"Lady Nightbird how may I be of service to you and Demon King Megatron?" Gigatron asked as Nightbird sighed to this switching to Japanese.
"Right now, we need to get you and your lot up to date on everything if you truly wish to be made Decepticons." Nightbird said as she looked to the group. "Soundwave will be here shortly to provide you all with the needed information as well as escort you all to Knockout's lab to be given all the required immunizations." Nightbird said as she rather these Destrons not bring in any pathogens due to their time on Earth nor for Gigatron to be exposed to any Cybertronian deceases.
"As you say." Gigatron said and thus Nightbird began to leave but was stopped. "Lady Nightbird will I be able to meet with Megatron?" Gigatron asked as Nightbird had her optics closed for a moment almost fighting with herself on something. "That... is yet to be seen." Nightbird said and thus took her leave knowing that if Gigatron remains onboard... her old deception will become known to Megatron. If Megatron ever learned the truth then she would happily face whatever retribution he may have should he deem it needed, otherwise she was just thankful Soundwave agreed to keep this secret to prevent any weakness to be exploited against Lord Megatron.
(Scene Break the Station)
Ratchet and Lifeline were at the Station now as they were treating the injured pair at their base. "Easy there." Lifeline said as she tended to Black Arachnia.
"Hey, we came as soon as we heard!" Kasumi called out as she and the rest of Gatchaman arrived.
"What happened?" Takeru asked and thus Arcee answered.
"Cons happened they ambushed and took your friends planning to force us to hand the Disk over to them in exchange for their lives." Arcee said as she looked to the group. "If they had heeded Optimus' warning then." Arcee began and thus Black Arachnia had enough of this.
"Well, sorry you crazed two-wheeler, but we were NEVER a part of YOUR war!" Black Arachnia snapped as she shot up and glared at Arcee.
"Black Arachnia." Convoy said as he was trying his hardest to keep it together.
"No ever since they got here, they've been trying to take Yoketrons treasure and now we have to give it up to save the others!" Black Arachnia yelled as she was not having it.
"Black Arachnia please." Convoy tried to reason but she would not listen.
"No! We have to find another way we can't let Yoketron go again!" She snapped and thus Arcee looked ready to jump in only for Black Arachnia to transform and crawl up the wall to her den where she locked herself in.
"Dammit." Convoy cursed as Arcee was caught off guard by this.
"Good thing she's all patched up." Lifeline said as she tried to find a positive.
"Though I do agree with Arcee we also need to acknowledge she's young and prone to... tantrums." Ratchet said as Optimus was going over the data thus far.
"This is all my fault." Convoy said getting the groups attention. "If I had just been decisive if I had just been more observant, we wouldn't be in this situation." Convoy said but then Optimus put a comforting hand on Convoy's shoulder.
"It is not your fault young one." Optimus said trying to help Convoy.
"How is it not my fault, they were my responsibility anything that happens to them is on my head not yours!" Convoy snapped but Optimus let the young bot vent. "I promised Yoketron I'd look after them and I let him down." Convoy said and thus Optimus chose now to speak up.
"Thus is the curse of leadership." Optimus said and thus Convoy listened. "I have been where you have been, Convoy unsure and uncertain thrusted with the responsibility of many when I myself felt unworthy and ill prepared for it." Optimus said as he tried to help Convoy. "You could not have foreseen this but take solace that we WILL find your cohorts and we WILL reunite you all." Optimus said as he looked to Convoy promising him that the Autobots will reunite the family without surrendering the Golden Disk.
"But how?" Convoy asked and thus Optimus recognized the fear in the young Bots eyes the same fear he too carried long ago.
"Have faith young Convoy we will find a way." Optimus assured Convoy and thus Arcee took this chance to scout the area.
(Outside)
"Jeez what is her problem I make one mistake and she label's me for life." Arcee scowled and while she understands Black Arachnia's point she also knew that the Spider-Bot was acting like a child.
"She was never good with people like that." Jinbu was heard and thus Arcee looked and saw Jinbu was ok.
"Jinbu, where have you been?!" Arcee asked when she saw the yellow flier.
"Scouting the area for the others." Jinbu said as he looked to the Autobot. "Anyway, Black Arachnia never had it easy it took us almost a year to get her to open up to us and even then, it was hard." Jinbu said as Arcee raised a brow.
"What do you mean wasn't she born on Earth?" Arcee asked and thus Jinbu sighed before gesturing Arcee to follow him.
(Later)
The pair arrived at a cave near the area as Jinbu walked into it with Arcee. Of course, they did not need to go far as inside was what looked like a pod of some sort. "A Cybertronian escape pod?" Arcee asked and thus Jinbu nodded to this.
"Yeah, the same pod we found Black Arachnia inside of so long ago." Jinbu said as Arcee looked it over. "We found her inside the pod one night after it crashed investigating it, we saw her, small, alone, and hurting badly." Jinbu said as he looked to Arcee who was walking around the pod before removing some dirt and revealed a Decepticon symbol on it.
"And I can see why." Arcee said as she knew there was something up.
"Yoketron took her in, fed her, nursed her back to health, and raised her as one of us." Jinbu said remembering the old bot. "I think she was abused from those wounds but the who and why we never found out." Jinbu said as he looked away until Arcee began to open up the pod and found something.
"Ever tried the black box?" Arcee asked which Jinbu found confusing.
"Wait what?" He asked and thus Arcee pulled it out and saw it was still working.
"This might give us a clue where she came from and why she was in an Decepticon Escape Pod." Arcee said and thus she began going through the data itself. At least she was doing so until she saw an image of Arachnid show up. "Wait... Arachnid?" Arcee asked as she began to grow worried and thus began going through the data.
She played the audio and thus Arcee steeled herself for whatever Arachnid did this time. "This little parasite is all yours, useless little vermin." Arachnid spoke as she was speaking to another Decepticon.
"Ok and what do you want me to do with her?" The Con asked as Arcee listened in close.
"Don't know, don't care, all she ever did was scream, cry, and just generally proven to be a nuisance." Arachnid said as her words came off as cruel.
Arcee then saw an arm a small one reach out and in turn paused the video. "No... she didn't." Arcee said as she knew Arachnid was bad but even Arcee didn't think Arachnid was that evil. Stelling herself Arcee continued the recording and hoped she was wrong.
A cry was heard in the recording causing Arachnid to snarl. "I said shut your trap!" She yelled striking the arms holder causing Arcee to look away in horror as even Jinbu was shocked by this. It was made worse because Arachnid had her claws flexed out when she did that attack on an innocent Sparkling.
"Wow and I thought you were sadistic before." The unnamed Con in question said as he honestly didn't care as long as he was paid.
"It's just some parasite that latched onto me, not my problem." Arachnid countered causing Arcee to grow angry over this.
Arcee stopped the video as she then fell against the cave wall sick to her stomach. "Do you need a moment?" Jinbu asked as he didn't even realize how hard Black Arachnia life had before Yoketron had found her so long ago.
"No I... I need to see the rest." Arcee said and thus spent a good amount of time watching the images while Jinbu took his leave of the Femme and her study session.
