64- Deadlock.

There was a huge battle aboard the Nemesis, which was on Earth's orbit. Many flying Vehicon squadrons flew around the Nemesis's outside and fired at the Autobots as they were attempting to sneak inside the warship from the upper hangar. Right now, they were concentrating in reaching the hangar's door, taking down all the Decepticons who tried to stop them.

"The Omega Lock's control room is located on the lower deck." Ratchet reported by com-link.

"Come on." Arcee encouraged as the team advanced.

Ratchet advanced through the warship's corridors and changed to robot form.

"I am making my way there now."

"Copy, Ratchet. We will rendezvous at the objective. Elita, lead Stealth Team to secure the Omega Lock. Ultra Magnus, you, Warpath and the Wreckers storm the bridge. Prevent the Decepticons from targeting the device if Stealth Team is delayed." Optimus instructed as he and Blaster flew toward the Nemesis, evading the laser shots.

"Optimus, if we fail to secure the lock before it's ready to deploy, do we destroy it?" Elita questioned.

"I do not intend to squander a second chance to restore Cybertron."

The Autobots managed to reach the entrance as Magnus eliminated the closest enemies with his hammer.

"Wreckers, Warpath, let's move!" Ultra Magnus called as he, Wheeljack, Seaspray and Warpath took one path.

"Everyone else, with me." Elita instructed as she led to the other path.

Smokescreen was about to follow them when he saw Galvatron emerging from the hangar, with the Dark Star Saber hooked to his back.

"Smokey, come on!" Moonracer called.

Smokescreen ended following his team. Galvatron jumped over the Nemesis's deck and spotted Optimus coming to the ship evading the shots. Galvatron jumped out of the ship and with a roar he unleashed a wave of energy from the Dark Star Saber. The wave hit Optimus's wing, making him to fly without control, fortunately he managed to grab himself to one of the Nemesis's wings. At the same time, Galvatron hooked the saber back to his back and changed to his alt mode. Optimus spotted the Omega Lock, so he started climbing up for it. Galvatron was about to fire at him, but some shots forced him to change course: it was Blaster, who was now on his trail. Inside the Nemesis, Stealth Team continued for their objective in vehicle form, but suddenly Smokescreen stopped and changed back to robot form.

"Go on without me." He said.

The rest of the team stopped and changed to robot form too.

"That isn't the mission." Arcee reminded.

Smokescreen turned on the phase shifter. "There's something I need to do." And next he disappeared passing through the wall.

"What do you think he's up to?" Sideswipe asked confused.

"Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be worthy. All that Smokescreen does is." Moon reassured.

"You're right. When Smokescreen follows his instinct, it always guides him well." Elita nodded before she and the rest of the team continued their way.

Ratchet managed to reach the lower deck's door, guarded by two Decepticon long range soldiers. He simply pulled out his swords and the only thing that was heard later were laser shots. When the door opened revealed that Ratchet disposed of them quite easily. Once inside the room he spotted Shockblast working on the control panel.

"Shut it down, Shockblast. I cannot allow you to harm Earth." Ratchet advised.

"The planet will not be harmed. Only its indigenous lifeforms."

"Over my sparkless husk." Ratchet said charging at the Decepticon scientist.

Ratchet jumped at him, but Shockblast simply pushed him down. Before he could strike, Ratchet kicked him aside and hit him twice with his swords, until Shockblast pushed him hard, sending him against one of the energon canisters. But Ratchet was not going to give up, so he recovered and charged again with a battle cry. A few moments later, Stealth Team was almost at the lower deck.

"Ratchet, we're approaching your position." Elita communicated.

But before they could reach the door, they spotted Starscream, walking in front with other Seeker troops.

"What?" Starscream said at seeing the Autobots.

"Scrap." Hot Rod cursed.

"Attack!" He ordered to the Seekers, which opened fire.

Meanwhile, the only one who wasn't taking place in all the fight was Knock Out, who was simply trying to rummaging between the lab' items.

"Pack light, pack light." He said, until he found the buffer. "Pack smart."

At the same time, Smokescreen reached to the relics' room. He examined the pods until he found the one he was looking for.

"I was hoping you'd still be here." He said.

Meanwhile, Soundblaster was coordinating the defenses from the warship's bridge, with the Genesect team present there as well. Then he heard shots from behind him. It was the Wrecker Team.

"Secure the bridge!" Ultra Magnus ordered.

They managed to eliminate all the guards, leaving Soundblaster alone. But the Genesect squadron reacted immediately charging their cannons and firing Techno Blast at them. They managed to dodge, but that was what Soundblaster expected, because he opened a ground bridge right below them, making them fall through the portal, which transported them to another room, full of Decepticon heavy soldiers.

"Ultra Magnus to all units: we will be delayed. Soundblaster pulled one of his relocation tricks."

"I'm going for him right now." Blaster volunteered after he launched two of his missiles at Galvatron and stopped chasing him.

"Watch out, Blaster. Those Con-pokémon are there to watch his back." Seaspray warned.

The gang heard that at base.

Bonnie groaned in frustration. "Why those stupid pokémon traitors have to ruin everything?"

"Seaspray has a point. Even without Soundblaster, they could be a serious bother for the Autobots." Max pointed.

"There must be something we can do." Ritchie said.

"How about if we assist them by sending our pokémon to deal with the Genesect? After all, now we know they're inside the ship, where we all can be." Ash suggested.

"But Ash, those pokémon are extremely powerful." Dawn objected.

"Even if our own has faced them already, let's not forget they are legendary pokémon. And one of them also managed to match Mewtwo when she was mega-evolved." Iris supported.

"She? It isn't supposed that Mewtwo is a boy?" Misty reminded.

"We're talking about another Mewtwo, but that's not the point. We have to do something." Ash clarified.

"What if we don't need to beat them, but to capture them?" Serena suggested, making everyone to look at her. "That way we would ensure they stop supporting the Decepticons after this."

"That would make sense. But the question is how are we going to trap them." Clemont reminded.

"Come on, guys. We're pokémon trainers. And how we pokémon trainers catch pokémon?" Ash asked as he pulled out what he was referring to. "With poke balls, of course."

"You're right, Ash." Tracey supported. "But let's not forget that first the pokémon to catch needs to be unable to combat or affected to make the capture easier."

"Not all." Ranger Jack interrupted. "There is one particular kind of poke ball which don't need to act like the others."

"The Master Ball, of course. But those are the hardest kind of poke ball to get. How are we going to get them?" Ritchie asked.

"You don't need to get them. You can use these." Ranger Kellyn revealed as he and Kate came into the room with a box full of Master Balls.

"You have a whole bunch of Master Balls?" Max asked in disbelief.

"We have them only to use them in case of specify emergencies, although we almost never use them." Kate clarified.

"But this could be one of those cases. If you managed to catch those Genesect with these balls, and bring them back to headquarters, we can make sure to make them forget they ever had a Decepticon as trainer." Ranger Kellyn reassured.

"Then what are we waiting for? We have a plan now, so let's go give our friends a hand."

"Hold on, May. Even if we can deal with the Genesect, none of us won't have a chance against Soundblaster." Tracey remembered.

"We will, if we have the right advantage." Ash revealed. "Clemont, can you get us onto the warship's bridge?"

"Sure, now that I have a fix on it."

"Great. Then once there, think you could main the ship's controls?"

"Sounds like you have a plan." Dawn suspected.

"And this time, we all are going to have a role on it."

Back to the Nemesis, Ratchet was pushed against one of the energon containers. Shockblast changed one of his hands for his shock cannon and was about to fire at him, but when the terminal sounded, he went to check it.

"Lord Galvatron, the Omega Lock is fueled and ready."

Shockblast opened the lower deck's door, but Optimus was already over the Omega Lock and fired his gatling. But immediately some shots distracted him: it was Galvatron, flying at him, until Blaster's missiles exploded very near to him, making him to lose control, return to robot form and run over Optimus. The two leaders recovered and stood against each other.

"Shockblast, commence Omega Lock firing sequence." Galvatron ordered.

Shockblast activated the lock's charging systems. Somewhere else in the Nemesis, Knock Out walked through the corridors until a door at the end of one hall opened and shots came flying, forcing him to find some cover.

"Oh scrap."

The shots were because of the Wrecker Team, who managed to stand against the Decepticon troops. Soundblaster continued monitoring everything on the bridge, with a few Vehicon troops, two tanks and the Genesect squad guarding it. Then a ground bridge portal appeared in middle of the bridge. The Cons and pokémon aimed their weapons at it, ready to fire against any enemy it could appear. But the only one who came through was Ash, walking calmed at them while they aimed at him confused.

"Surprise!" Ash simply announced.

Suddenly, from the portal emerged Bonnie, inside the Apex Armor, and with simple kicks and punches, disposed off three of the Cons.

"Pick on someone your own size." She provoked.

The last Vehicon fired at her from behind, but the armor protected her, allowing her to jump over him and start punching him. Right after she came out of the portal, Pikachu, Sparky, Dedenne, Piplup, Axew, Ash's Greninja in his other form, Ash's Charizard, Zippo mega-evolved, Tracey's Scyther, Misty's Staryu, May's Blaziken mega-evolved, Dawn's Togekiss, Serena's Pancham, Iris's Dragonite and Clemont's Heliolisk came out alongside their trainers and started attacking: Pikachu, Sparky, Dedenne, Piplup, Axew and Pancham focused on the Decepticon tanks, first stunning them with Thunderbolt and Thunder Shock and next being attacked with Drill Peck, Giga Impact and Dark Pulse; Greninja used a combination of Double Team and Water Shuriken to distract Techbug, who tried to dispose of all the copies with Extreme Speed, but was surprised by Scyther using Quick Attack to approach and hitting it with X-Scissor; Blaziken was engaging Infernyphoon, because he had a pending account with it, engaging it with Blaze Kick, as well as his rival, until he got the chance and dodged when it used Flame Charge and hit it from behind with Sky Uppercut, followed by Overheat; Staryu and Togekiss engaged Cryotremor, who tried to freeze them with Ice Beam, fortunately Staryu used his Rapid Spin to circle around the artificial pokémon and hit it with Swift, while Togekiss used the same strategy with Sky Attack and Aura Sphere; Zapwave battled both Heliolisk and Zippo, trying to trap them by using Magnet Rise, but Heliolisk managed to prevent it to use it by hitting it on the head with Focus Blast first, affecting his rival enough so Zippo could strike it with Steel Wing; Charizard and Dragonite engaged Waterspout, who intended to hit them with Shadow Claw, but Dragonite blocked the attack with Thunder Punch, allowing his pal to attack with Wing Attack, and while the Genesect was stunned both pokémon attacked with Flamethrower. Seeing that the Genesect squadron reacted how they expected, the group decided to pass to the next part of their plan.

"Get ready, guys." Ash instructed.

"Pals, use the strategy we told you about. Now!" Tracey authorized.

Immediately, as the others finally ended with the tanks, the other pokémon acted simultaneously, trying to join all the Genesect together. Once they were almost, Heliolisk used Flash to blind them, which allowed Pikachu to trap them all with Electroweb, and while they were trapped, Piplup and Dragonite used Ice Beam to freeze them all.

"Now!" Clemont shouted.

"Poke ball, go!" Ash said throwing his Master Ball.

Following Ash's move, Ritchie, Misty, May and Serena threw their Master Balls at each of the Genesect, catching them all. The pokémon tried to struggle to get free, but it was no use: they were caught by the humans.

"It worked. We have them!" Iris celebrated.

"And I managed to end with the Cons." Bonnie said after dealing with the last Vehicon.

"It's not over yet!" Tracey reminded, looking at Soundblaster, who witnessed everything.

Bonnie and all the pokémon charged at Soundblaster, but he already saw them coming and opened another ground bridge with his hand. That forced them to stop and fall back, because Soundblaster was walking toward them with the portal, trying to suck them in.

"Max, it's time." May called through her phone.

"Are you sure about this, Clemont? Don't you remember what happened the last time we crossed the streams?"

"I'm completely certain."

"So do it. Now!" Ash yelled.

Max followed their instructions: he operated the terminal and opened a ground bridge, right behind Soundblaster. Immediately the portal started to whirr uncontrollably, and Soundblaster was in middle of them, trying to hold his ground. The gang and their pokémon started to being sucked by the portals, but fortunately Bonnie and Blaster, who finally reached the bridge, grabbed them all as they covered their eyes. A great flashlight lighted up the room, and after that Soundblaster tried to attack them. But he only passed them through, thing that confused him.

"Did I miss something epic? Where's Soundblaster?" Blaster asked.

"He has taken a one-way ticket for a dimensional trip." Ritchie answered.

"Hope he enjoys the Reverse World." Bonnie joked.

"If Giratina doesn't rumbles with him first." Dawn added.

"Come on. Now that he's gone, we need to figure out how to navigate this thing." Clemont reminded.

"Allow me." Blaster offered as they marched toward the ship's control, while Soundblaster could only observe.

Speaking of the Omega Lock, while it was already charged, Optimus and Galvatron continued their rumble. Optimus grabbed Galvatron's hands and head-butted him, pushing him back a few steps before he sent another wave of energy, but Optimus evaded it and made Galvatron drop the Dark Star Saber. Galvatron saw where it landed, but he had no time to recover it because Optimus punched his face hard enough to bring him down.

"Shockblast, prepare to fire the…" Galvatron was about to order when suddenly the ship started to shake. "What?!"

The Nemesis began to move from one side to another, as result of Blaster's actions typing some buttons of the bridge's main terminal. The shakes made the humans and pokémon to go from one side to another.

"But weren't you good at hacking?" Tracey asked, trying to not lose his balance.

"Sorry, but it seems my knowledge about Decepticon analytic systems is a little rusty." Blaster admitted.

"Pal, were did you learn to fly?" May asked mad.

"Well, it isn't worse than that zeppelin which Team Rocket piloted." Misty reminded.

Fortunately, the ship's moves affected the Seekers which were blocking the lower deck's entrance, but also Stealth Team.

"Special delivery. That way, right?" Smokescreen said finally arriving, carrying the Star Saber.

The Cons fired at the young Autobot, so he turned on the phase shifter and passed through Starscream, who screamed, and reached the Omega Lock's control room. Once there, Smokescreen spotted Optimus fighting with Galvatron. He turned off the phase shifter preparing to give Optimus the Star Saber, just when Shockblast dodged Ratchet's hits and pushed him against one of the energon containers. Seeing that the other Decepticons were busy with his comrades, Smokescreen took the chance.

"Optimus, catch!"

"Smokescreen!" Ratchet called when Shockblast fired his cannon.

The shot hit Smokescreen, making him to drop the Star Saber. He landed next to an energon container, with an injury in his arm. While Moonracer went to check Smokescreen, Arcee and Elita saw the saber a few meters from them, the same as Starscream, who pushed the Seeker troops against Bumblebee, but he managed to kick them off. Immediately all the Autobots and Decepticons started a race toward the Star Saber, including Shockblast, who decided to go from the other side leaving a weakened Ratchet behind. Arcee managed to jump above one Seeker soldier and threw him at Starscream, making him trip over, right before Elita jumped at him to engage. As he was approaching to the Star Saber, Bumblebee managed to evade Shockblast's shots. When he was almost there, Bee slide to dodge Shockblast's sword, grabbed the saber and threw it above the Decepticon.

"Keep it up, Bee!" Sideswipe encouraged.

"We'll handle this one-eye showoff." Hot Rod added.

While Shockblast saw the saber flying above him, Hot Rod took the chance and hit him hard in the eye, causing him great pain, chance which Sideswipe took to jump to the Con's back. Bumblebee passed next to him and grabbed the saber again, next he put it on his shoulders as he started to climb down to where Optimus continued his fight against Galvatron.

"Optimus, you must use the saber to destroy the Omega Lock." Ratchet communicated while Optimus punched Galvatron. "It is the only way to save Earth."

"(I'm almost there, Optimus!)" Bumblebee called as he continued descending.

"The Star Saber." Galvatron saw before pushing his rival back.

With all his strength, Bee jumped as high as he could right toward at them, but Galvatron pulled out and fired his fusion cannon at him three times before Optimus interrupted him. But it was too late: the three shots hit Bumblebee, right in his spark chamber. The impact made him drop the Star Saber and made him fall right to the Omega Lock, while all his comrades: Ratchet, Smokescreen and Moonracer as the Seeker soldiers stopped them, Hot Rod and Sideswipe still dealing with Shockblast, Arcee and Elita engaging Starscream, and Optimus watched how their friend fell covered in flames as his eyes were turning off. As the Star Saber landed on the Omega Lock's structure, Bumblebee landed on its center, and like something immersing under the sea, its lifeless body disappeared. The Autobots cried his death, while some of the Decepticons, like Starscream, smirked. Galvatron was not an exception, from what Optimus saw.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Optimus shouted as he continued attacking his rival.

Optimus continued striking Galvatron hard multiple times until he sent him against the Omega Lock's structure with a strong hit from his hands. All the hits made Galvatron to lose his balance and fall to the ground, but he saw something useful nearby. Optimus changed his hand for a cannon, ready to execute his rival as he walked toward him, but once he was close enough Galvatron roared as he launched a wave of energy from the Dark Star Saber. The hit was overmuch for Optimus to resist that sent him flying out of the structure. Once he got up, Galvatron walked towards just where Optimus was hanging from the edge with smoke coming from the injury the wave made on his torso.

"Prepare to join your scout, in the Allspark." Galvatron declared as he readied his saber to finish with his rival, once and for all.

"Galvatron!" A voice called.

Just in the moment Galvatron turned to see who called him he felt something sharp pierce through him. He let out a shuddering gasp as he saw the Star Saber sticking through his gut. The responsible of that was surprisingly Bumblebee, who managed to return from the Omega Lock. He stared in front of the Decepticon leader while miraculously his injury healed like by some kind of magic. Logically, all the Autobots witnessed that without words.

"You took my voice. You will never rob anyone of anything, ever again." Bumblebee swore, with his own voice.

Galvatron raised the Dark Star Saber weakly, but the sword fell from his grip and fell back to Earth. Bee continued holding the saber until Galvatron kneeled, as Optimus and the others observed. The only thing Galvatron could do was simply hold the saber as his eyes started to turn off by the pain, the same as his dark energon shard.

Starscream fell on his knees, shocked. "Lord Galvatron, no!"

At the end, Galvatron's spark extinguished and his eyes turned off. His body slipped through the saber and fell towards Earth. Optimus witnessed how his former rival disappeared as a glowing meteorite in the planet's ocean. It was the end of the Decepticon tyrant Galvatron. Next, Bumblebee offered his hand to his leader and helped him up. Everyone was speechless.

"I will avenge you, master!" Starscream shouted as he was going after the ones who ended his leader's life, but Shockblast stopped him.

"Starscream, do not be a fool!" Shockblast warned.

"Curse you and your logic!" Starscream cursed to Shockblast as he carried him with his only hand and left the room alongside the remaining Seekers.

The Autobots reunited with Optimus and Bumblebee once they climbed up to the control room.

"Bumblebee." Hot Rod started.

"I…can't believe it." Sideswipe continued.

"Your voice." Arcee followed.

"You got it back." Moon added as everyone was surprised.

"My voice, what are you…? My voice." Bumblebee recognized surprised as he removed his battle mask, which covered his mouth. "Ratchet, I have my pipes back." He said hugging him.

"Yes, yes, we noticed it." Ratchet nodded in pain.

"The cyber-matter."

"It is the only possible explanation." Elita deduced.

"I would seem the old field medic made good after all." Optimus added. "Optimus Prime to all units, Galvatron is no more."

Everyone heard the message, causing lots of reactions.

"Yes!" Ranger Jack celebrated while Kellyn and Kate hugged each other.

"They made it." Max said before he went to hug Jack.

"Huah!" Wheeljack said cheered.

"Take that, Buckethead!" Seaspray followed.

"Wrecker Team, a job well done securing the bridge." Optimus congratulated by com-link.

"It wasn't us sir, the credit belongs to Blaster, the humans and their pokémon." Ultra Magnus corrected as he looked at the gang and Blaster, with them already in the bridge.

"Wait? That means what I'm thinking?" Clemont started.

"I think it is. We won!" Tracey said cheered.

"Yujuuu!" Bonnie shouted.

"We made it." Serena said hugging Ash.

"Our home is safe." Ash added.

"Oh right, victory!" Dawn celebrated.

"Goodbye, Galvatron." Misty said.

"A shame Sentinel cannot be here to see it." Ritchie expressed.

"This calls for a great party!" Iris suggested.

"Axew!" Axew said as he and the other pokémon started celebrating it dancing and jumping.

"The Omega Lock is under our control." Elita pointed.

"I propose that we put it to good use." Ratchet suggested.

"Agree, old friend." Optimus nodded. "Blaster, set course for Cybertron."

"Hey Max, if you can tear yourself away from base's terminal for two seconds, bridge yourself up here so we can get to Cybertron already." Bumblebee called by com-link.

"Wait. Who's that?" Ranger Kellyn asked.

It took Max a few seconds until he realized who spoke to him. "Bee?"

Moments later, the Nemesis flew through a space bridge portal and headed to Cybertron. Meanwhile, inside the Nemesis, Starscream and Shockblast were still trying to find a way to escape. They reached to the escape pods room, and there was only one pod left.

"Wait, wait. My boys! Where are they? I cannot leave without them!" Starscream recalled.

"No time for that. They are on their own." Shockblast said grabbing him.

So they had no choice but to enter inside it. The pod ejected itself from the Nemesis.

"Uh. Your elbow articulator is digging into my lateral flexor." Starscream complained.

"Do you intend to whine for the duration of the voyage?" Shockblast answered.

The escape pod flew back to somewhere on Cybertron. Meanwhile, inside the Omega Lock's control room…

"Optimus, I…was never able to learn Shockblast's side of the cyber-matter equation. This may be all we ever have, and Cybertron is a much larger planet than Earth." Ratchet reported.

"Then we must launch the cyber-matter at Cybertron's very core." Optimus declared.

"Into the heart of Primus himself?" Elita asked.

Moments later, the ships reached to a huge hole that probably reached to Cybertron's core.

"Optimus, we've arrived, at the Well of all Sparks." Blaster reported.

With all the Autobots present in the Nemesis's bridge, alongside their human friends, and the Omega Lock in position, Ratchet activated the firing sequence. Electricity started to flow through the device and launched an energy beam, which reached and made contact with Cybertron's core. The Omega Lock continued firing until all the cyber-matter was sent to the core. After a long pause, the planet started to light up with a beautiful blue light that expanded all over the planet: Cybertron was alive again.

"Ah, such luster." Knock Out contemplated, before turning at everyone, who looked at him in confusion.

"And what do we do with this one?" Ritchie asked confused.

"What? I'm joining the winning team." Knock Out tranquilized.

Immediately, Bonnie knocked him out, next she dusted her armored hands proudly before crossing her arms.

"Hahaha, well done Bonnie." May congratulated.

"I…don't think I like to see Bonnie wearing that thing." Clemont confessed.

The Nemesis landed on Cybertron, but there was someone hooked to his outside. It was Predaking, who surprisingly managed to survive Galvatron's betrayal. He tried to climb up the warship, but he slipped because of his injuries. Then he saw where the sunlight was coming and saw that he arrived to Cybertron, his home world. So he jumped out the ship, changed to his dragon form and flew toward the horizon.

"What is that?" Iris asked.

"The Predacon." Ultra Magnus recognized.

Time later, the Autobots were again inside their base on Earth, in presence of their friends.

"Though our home world is once again capable of supporting life, we have much rebuilding to do. Alas, we will miss our home away from home, and the family we made here." Optimus said looking at the group.

"If Cons are still out there, won't Earth be on their radar?"

"Max, if you ever need me, need us, for any reason, we're just a space bridge away." Bumblebee reassured.

"Well, in case they will, we pokémon rangers will be on guard in case we require your help. Thanks to your efforts, our home is once again safe." Ranger Lunick expressed.

"We are indebted to you." Ranger Solana added.

"We will be able to keep seeing you?" Ritchie asked.

"Surely. For visits, and in case one of you want to be part of our unit in the future." Ranger Jack answered.

"I trust that your superiors don't have any rules forbidding the enlistment of rusty old Autobot consultants."

"Ratchet?" Sideswipe asked in disbelief. "You of all…?"

"Yep, yep, yep. I know where I am needed."

The Autobots were getting ready for their departure to Cybertron, but it was not going to be easy for them. For example, Bumblebee stopped in front of Max.

"Max…" Bumblebee started, but he just could speak.

"I know, Bee. You don't need to say anything." He said tearful.

"I never did." Bee said smiling.

Warpath was also worried and sad for leaving May, who walked to him and sat on his foot.

"May, I guess this is…" Warpath started, but he couldn't continue because May started to cry, so he allowed her to grab his finger.

Wheeljack grabbed the lob ball, right before he looked at Dawn, who couldn't help but drop a few tears.

"Wheeljack, I can't believe…" She started.

"Hey, don't allow this to take you down, pal." He said walking approaching them. "You're a Wrecker now, remember? You'll be able to pass this. As how you manage to improve your shows."

Dawn cleaned her tears and smiled. "I'm glad to know at least you noticed it."

Wheeljack looked at Piplup. "Be strong for me, and take good care of her. Okay?"

Piplup cleaned his tears and stood proud. "Piplup."

Wheeljack petted his hard with his finger. "That's our pal."

Seaspray was also getting ready for departure as Misty approached him.

"A shame this hasn't been that long. I wish we could have had chances to pass some free time together." Misty started.

"Yeah, but that doesn't mean we still can't have it." He revealed, surprising her. "We don't have many oceans on Cybertron, so I may take a break and come here to enjoy some dives. Would you like to join me then?"

That cheered Misty. "I would be glad to."

For others the goodbye was not that hard too.

"What a short stay on Earth, right?" Tracey asked simply.

"Yeah. I didn't expect this to end so soon. I even didn't have time to find a simple thing to miss. Except you, of course. And your friends." Blaster admitted.

"Hey, you can open space bridges like Soundblaster. Why don't you come for a visit when you have a break to know our world better and find it?"

"Hum, that's a great idea. Thanks for the advice."

"It doesn't seem hard for them." Iris said, looking them from other side of the room.

"Yeah. And it's supposed that they two knew each other before I even arrive here in the first place." Smokescreen nodded.

"It's been great to experience new things for all this time. But I think the best has been ever meeting you, Smokey. I…wish you could stay here…long enough for our celebration party."

"Well, I don't know, now with all that Cybertron's restoration and everything else, but I'll try to see if I can sneak enough for enjoy it for a little. Unless we have our own party there."

Iris laughed. "Oh Smokey, you still act like a kid."

"And so you do sometimes."

Iris took it as a compliment. "Bye, partner."

"Axew." Axew added.

But for others, was harder, even impossible: like Moonracer, who almost wasn't able to look Bonnie directly.

"Bonnie…I know. I didn't expect this to end this sooner as well, but…I want you to know…that I…oh scrap. I'm sorry, I…I'm not good at this."

"Moon!" Bonnie surprisingly yelled as she grabbed her hand, crying.

As respond, Moonracer took her with both hands and allowed her to hug her neck.

"Me too. But I need you to do something important. Make sure to keep and eye on Ratchet for us, and take care of your big brother as well. His place is in the scientific room, so he'll need also your strength and determination. Can I count on you?"

Bonnie finally stopped crying and wiped out her tears. "Of course. I'll not let you down."

"I know you will not."

And she placed her back to the ground, where her big brother and Dedenne hugged her to comfort her. Also…

"So, what are you going to do now that everything is over?" Ritchie asked, sat on Sideswipe's shoulder.

"Beats me. I guess we will start with rebuilding, hunt down surviving Cons still on the loose, welcoming home old comrades and search the stars for others." The young Autobot answered.

"It seems you will see old friends again."

"Yeah, but also not being able to see others." He said looking at him and Sparky.

"Or, maybe not. I mean, even before meeting you the first time I didn't expect to meet Ash again, and look what happened. So, it may happen again with you."

Sideswipe laughed. "You know? It is true that you look like Ash. Now you seem to speak like him."

"Well, I guess that's good, right?"

"Indeed."

"Pikachu." Sparky nodded.

Meanwhile, Arcee walked next to where Serena was, she stopped and turned at her.

"It's been quite an adventure." Serena simply said.

Arcee still tried to stand strong, but she smiled at her partner. "Keep in touch, Serena. And make sure to remember Ash how a good couple you make. That he doesn't make me hunt him down."

"That would not be necessary, Arcee." Ash reassured, walking next to his girlfriend.

"Make sure to take care of them for me as well, Pikachu." Hot Rod said coming to them.

"Pika pi." He said saluting.

"Well, here we are." Ash started.

"We knew this moment would come. It's just…after everything we've been through together…it's hard to say goodbye."

"Me too, Hot Rod." Ash said, cleaning a tear. "I thought that after so many goodbyes with so many friends I would have gotten used to it, but it's hard with you."

"Yeah, that's indubitable. You're not an ordinary human Ash, you are my best friend. And that will never change. And that doesn't mean this has to be the last time we see each other. I promise I will keep coming to visit, to keep watching your battles, and helping you in your hardest times. That I promise you, with all my spark."

Ash felt touched by those words. "Then I will be here for you."

And both ended giving each other a high-five. Ultra Magnus and Elita One stood in front of the pokémon rangers, who saluted them in the military way. The Autobot commanders saluted them too before leaving. Despite trying to stand firm, Ranger Lunick couldn't wait to admit the feeling to miss them, so Solana relieved him. The space bridge portal opened, so Optimus decided to say goodbye to Ratchet, the only one who was not going home.

"Until we meet again, old friend." Optimus said offering his hand, which Ratchet accepted.

The gang and pokémon rangers witnessed how the Autobots entered in the portal one by one, while Ratchet remained with them. Optimus was the last one, he gave a last look to all his friends.
