GirlWhoLovesAnime: Thanks! :) To answer your question though, Talus' voice processor or box is completely gone, obliterated, bye bye. It basically doesn't exist anymore, it was destroyed completely, therefore no healing for something that is gone. But she is communicating through her natural species sounds, she can do this in either form. I hope that explains it for you :)
Seeker3: Indeed, very...very mysterious XD Thanks for reviewing!
Chandria The Snowy Owl: Yay! I happy that you're hyped this chapter should make that feel a bit better! :) Thank you for reviewing!
Now onto the show folks!
Take Care Now, Bye Bye Then!
Chapter Two: Love Never Dies
A flashlight appeared in Talus' optics as she growled softly from the 'pain' before she blinked a few times, Did Ratchet have to have a light that bright? Her optics were sensitive after all!
Smokescreen chuckled softly as Talus glared at him with a snort, Shut it!
Ratchet stood up straight before he said, "Well, I can't find anything physically that would cause the symptoms you had Smokescreen describe Talus"
Talus sighed silently through her olfactory sensors before she growled to Smokescreen, Could he please explain them to Ratchet again?
Smokescreen shrugged his shoulder joints before he said, "Okay doc, what happened to her was...?!"
"I know what the symptoms were Smokescreen, Processor ache, Weaknesses in limbs, Flashes in optics, Nausea, and Vertigo. It is clearly a processor problem", Ratchet interrupted Smokescreen.
Ratchet looked at Talus before he ordered, "Alright, lay down Talus and I'll do a scan of your helm"
Talus cocked her helm and snorted out softly, Fine.
Talus did as her creator asked and soon she was laying on the berth before Ratchet.
Ratchet grabbed a small servo held scanner before a blue light scanned over Talus' helm and faceplate, Talus didn't move before the light shut off and the scanner processed what it had scanned and soon it's analysis came up onto the screen.
Talus slowly sat up from the berth before she looked at Ratchet expectantly.
Ratchet raised a brow before he said, "Well, according to this, there is nothing wrong with your processor Talus"
Talus and Smokescreen both blinked in shock in perfect unison, they had not been expecting that.
Talus blinked and she snorted softly, What?
Ratchet decided to explain at seeing the confused expressions on the young mech and TechnaFury femme's faceplates.
"Well according to the scans, Talus' processor and physical well being are perfectly fine. Of course for the obvious missing tailfin as well as the lack of a vocal processor", Ratchet explained.
At the mention of her missing vocal processor, Talus' immediately look saddened and she looked down to the ground.
Ratchet and Smokescreen saw this and Smokescreen gave a small glare to Ratchet. What was that? They both knew that Talus hated it when her lost pipes were mentioned.
Ratchet looked bewildered a bit, before his looked softened to that of...regret? Guilt? Smokescreen didn't know.
Ratchet blinked once before he said, "Talus, lay on the berth, I wish to examine your neck and how it is healing currently, it might have improved"
Talus immediately smiled and she nodded rapidly before she laid down on the berth once again and she lifted her helm a bit so that Ratchet had access her neck and assess the damage or repairs.
Ratchet quickly put a small sharp tool by her muscle cables and he gently poked and prodded here and there. He observed that once and a while, Talus would flinch or twitch a random part on her body, or her face plate.
Ratchet soon backed off and he said, "Clearly still sensitive, but repairs look good. How about intaking? Is it still difficult?"
Talus nodded softly before she growled softly, It still was hard for her sometimes, but if she was in her natural Predacon or TechnaFury self, it wasn't so bad then.
Smokescreen then translated for Ratchet, "Tal said that it is hard for her sometimes, but if she is her TechnaFury self, it is much easier"
Ratchet nodded and he theorized, "I see, it must be because of the larger intake pipe of your natural self, more air is allowed to go through the pipe than in your robot form", Ratchet put a servo to his chin, "So basically it's the same"
Talus rose to a sitting up position and she gave Rachet a questioning look that clearly said 'What are you saying?'
Ratchet sighed softly before he said with a heavy spark, "Talus, it hasn't improved or gotten worse, therefore I think that this is the state it will be in for the rest of your years, it's done healing, I'm sorry"
Talus' optics widened in horror and disbelief as her entire structure froze solid from the complete spark break she was feeling.
She would never talk again! She would never breathe properly again! Her throat would never be the same ever again! She was now forever...broken!
Smokescreen saw Talus' expression before he asked Rachet softly, "Could you give us a minute doc?"
Ratchet nodded softly as a new look glittered his faceplate, he had an idea, Smokescreen knew that much.
"Excuse me, I need to visit Shockwave", Ratchet explained before he walked out of the Med. Bay fairly quickly.
Smokescreen raised a brow ridge before he looked over to Talus, she curled her servos and pedes into her chassis and she was sitting in the 'Fetal' position as the humans called it.
Smokescreen saw that she was shaking, and he heard soft TachnaFury whimpers, he knew she was crying, even if it was softly.
Smokescreen felt heavy sadness fill his spark, all for his best friend.
The TechnaFury rider waked over to his friend and he gently put a servo on her shoulder armor, she tensed up and froze again before she suddenly relaxed.
Talus slowly sat up and she looked at Smokescreen with a spark breaking expression.
Smokescreen opened his mouth to say something comforting, but he was interrupted when Talus growled softly, Could Smokescreen please take the saddle off?
Smokescreen immediately knew what she wanted to do, she needed to clear her head. She wanted to be alone. No, she needed to be alone right now.
Smokescreen nodded and he said, "Alright Talus", with that, Talus stood up and transformed into her natural TechnaFury self before she felt Smokescreen slowly take off the saddle and he disconnected the pedal lines from the inside of the Mark 4 tailfin before he switched it to where Talus could control it by herself.
Once Smokescreen moved away from her tail, Talus transformed back into her Alt. femme form before she looked at Smokescreen and she growled out softly, She wanted to go out on her own for a while, so don't wait up for her.
With that, she walked out of the Med. Bay with large echos of each pede step.
Smokescreen sighed before he folded up the Mark 4 saddle and lines very tightly, with that he walked back to his and Talus' quarters and he put the saddle against the wall securely.
He looked down, he wanted to help Talus...but she wanted to be alone right now. Yet he wanted to hang out with someone.
Smokescreen sat down on his berth, as he thought deeply in his processor for maybe about five minutes until there was a knock on his berth door.
Smokescreen rose to his pedes and he slid open the door to reveal a new, a very new recruit to the Predabot Police force, her name was Strongarm.
Also there was her Predacon partner right at her side, whom was someone Smokescreen never saw in a million years to be paired with an Autobot, it was Grimwing himself.
Strongarm raised her right servo and she gave Smokescreen a rigid solute before she said sternly, "Sir!"
Smokescreen saw Grimwing seem to roll his optics with a small smile before he said, "Greetings Smokescreen"
Smokescreen smiled before he said, "Hi there Grim, and Strongarm, you don't need to solute if you don't want to"
Strongarm looked surprised before she slowly lowered her servo and she said uncertainly, "Uh...yes sir"
Grimwing chuckled before he put a clawed servo on Strongarm's shoulder armor and he said, "Do not fret Strongarm, you have a good spark my friend"
Strongarm smiled at Grimwing before she turned to Smokescreen and explained, "Sir, Chief Medical Officer Ratchet has asked us to come here and ask that you and Madam Talus would come to the Med. Bay immediately"
Smokescreen raised a brow ridge before he said, "Sorry guys, you just missed her, she left a few cycles ago to go enjoy the day on her own"
Strongarm looked perplexed before she asked, "Alone sir? Is that really wise?"
Both Grimwing and Smokescreen looked at Strongarm before Grimwing said, "Strongarm, this is Talus we are talking about, as through the many times we have sparred I can assure you that she can indeed take care of herself"
Smokescreen then asked, "Did the doc tell you why he needed Talus?"
Grimwing answered, "He did not, he explained that what he wanted Talus with was none of our concern, we were just ordered to bring you both to the Medical Bay as soon as possible"
Smokescreen nodded his helm before he said, "Well sorry but Talus is gone, so I guess I'll have to go, then tell Tal later"
Strongarm said, "Yes sir!", with a short solute before she started to walk off. Grimwing chuckled before he said, "Goodbye Smokescreen", before he followed after his young femme partner.
Smokescreen chuckled before he slid his door shut and he walked to the Med. Bay.
The Nemesis' Medical Bay: Two Cycles later
Smokescreen walked into the Med. Bay, only to blink in a bit of shock when he saw that in fact Predaking was there, as well as Optimus, Ratchet, Shockwave, and Knockout.
Predaking seemed to be annoyed that he was there, and he confirmed Smokescreen's suspicions when he exclaimed in a mild rage, "If you shall not tell me why I was summoned here Prime, especially when I need to lead my fellow Predacons to rebuild our great race!"
Optimus didn't flinch before he explained calmly, "And I thank you your highness for answering my summons and for your patience, but I will only explain when Talus and Smokescreen are here and present in the room"
Predaking's blazing yellow optics narrowed in barely contained rage and annoyance, before they snapped to Smokescreen and widened.
Predaking turned his massive structure to the direction that Smokescreen was standing and he demanded, "Where is Talus Autobot?!"
Everyone else turned to Smokescreen and they all noticed one big thing, Talus wasn't with him, nor in the hall behind him.
Optimus walked up to him and asked softly, "Smokescreen, where is Talus? Is she not here?"
Smokescreen looked up to Optimus and he explained, "Well uh...not exactly"
Optimus raised a brow before Predaking walked over and demanded, "Where is she?"
Smokescreen looked at Predaking before putting a servo to his chest, and bowing his helm a little before he looked at Predaking again and he said, "I don't know your majesty, but she...she was devastated a while ago"
Predaking raised a brow ridge before he asked sharply, "Why?"
Smokescreen turned to Ratchet and Ratchet gave a small nod to the silent question 'Should I tell him?'
Smokescreen looked up to Predaking and he answered, "Well it was because of Talus'...diagnosis"
Predaking raised a brow ridge as he crossed his servos and puffed out his chassis a bit, almost as if saying to continue.
Smokescreen's optics looked down as his faceplate shaped to that of a hurt expression and he explained, "Talus will never talk again"
Predaking's optics widened at this revelation before his structure softened a bit, his mighty spark feeling pity for Talus' well being.
Predaking turned to look at Ratchet before he asked, "Is this true doctor?"
Ratchet sighed softly before he said, "Yes, but that doesn't matter now, for Shockwave and I...may have a way to correct that, and Talus' tailfin for that matter"
Everyone but Ratchet, Knockout, and Shockwave looked shocked at this revelation, before Optimus asked, "How?"
Knockout smiled before he said "The same way our beloved scout got his pipes back Prime, using the Cyber Matter"
Shockwave then continued where Ratchet left off, "The research indicates that not only it would regenerate Cybertronian lifeforms, but the Cyber Matter could also allow us to clone exact copies of extinct Predacons"
Predaking was confused at this before he asked, "I do not understand, are we not already being cloned properly?"
Shockwave answered in his monotone voice, "You are, but you were cloned by making a sparkling Predacon, and with a growth hormone and the artificial amniotic fluid, you and my other creations were aged rapidly until I deemed it logical."
Ratchet nodded and he said, "That is how I cloned Talus as well Predaking, but because of this, she is her own self, she is not her ancestor. Just like you are you, and not your ancestor."
Predaking snapped out, "I know how cloning works doctor! I oversee all my new brethren that come to be and I am there when they are awakened, but what does it mean when my creator said 'exact copies of extinct Predacons'?"
Ratchet then explained, "What he meant is exactly what he said, we can clone the exact predacon, from it's bones. Memories, scars, lost limbs, up until their spark extinguished. Like say, if we cloned from the bones your ancestor, he would be as he was before, and not you"
Predaking thought about this before he said, "So...you could clone any being that is deceased, and they would be as they once were?"
The doctors and cyclonic scientist all nodded before Knockout said, "The only problem, it is tricky, you have to get it in the exact right timing, or else it will not work"
Optimus then asked, "But it could work?"
Shockwave soon answered, "Affirmative, but it would be illogical to expect greater productivity in these clones, for they would grow much slower, and take much Cyber Matter before they can awaken fully cultivated"
Smokescreen quickly asked excitedly, "Hey, could we clone everyone who was lost in the war?"
Everyone paused at this before Optimus said a short while later, "While it does sound like a good idea, we must ponder, if the sparks of those lost in this war are truly put to rest, is it right to rip them away from eternal peace?"
Everyone seemed to pause at this before Predaking said, "You do bring up a good point Prime, but Predacons were killed in the Cataclysm, therefore I think none of my mighty ancestors are truly at rest"
Optimus then said, "Your majesty, I am not saying the option is not possible, everyone on Cybertron is free to do as they wish, as long as they keep their morals and actions on the side of truth, justice, and forgiveness"
Predaking raised a brow ridge and before he said, "I do act on truth and justice Prime, it is forgiveness I will withhold until I deem otherwise"
Optimus didn't say anything before Predaking turned his structure around to where he was facing the Med. Bay doors and he said, "I am going to track down Talus and let her know of this glorious news, as I now have no more business here"
With that Predaking walked out of the Med. Bay, and soon out of the Nemesis in general.
He only tolerated the Autobots, for Talus' sake.
The Skies Above the Sea of Rust: Four MegaCycles later
Predaking was in his mighty Predacon dragon form as he honed in on Talus' location, he had sensed that she was nearby, and he would soon find her.
Predaking would never tell anyone though, but he just enjoyed the flight, no real worries, no real responsibilities. He would never give up his slowly growing kingdom for the world, he knew this, but once in a while. It was just nice to go out for a flight.
Predaking flapped his large wings a few times as he looked around, while the sincere surface of Cybertron was indeed reconstructed again, the buildings, rubble, and dust that covered said surface made it hard to consider Cybertron nice itself.
Predaking growled softly, to him it was quite a shame he awoke inside of Shockwave's lab on Cybertron and not allowed to see the outside, then maybe he would appreciate the progress the Autobots, Ex-Decepticons, and Predacons were making.
Predaking flew for a while longer before he huffed through his sharpened denta and mandibles, he had to be getting close to Talus by now, but his honing instincts were sensing for Talus and they told him to go this way, so he would follow them.
Predaking snorted as a bit of pride filled him as he thought about how much more mighty Predacons were compared to the weakling Cybertronian mechs and femmes.
Yet Talus was even mightier, her species were mightier, yet she allied herself with the Autobots.
Predaking growled in rage as his optics narrowed and his denta gritted as he thought about the destruction of his brethren on Earth by the Autobot's hands.
He wanted them to pay!
With no real control of his rage he let out a bellowing roar "SSSSHHHHRRRRIIIIEEEEKKKK!"
Predaking calmed down almost immediately after the roar he let out, and he felt much better.
Soon he heard a growing whistle, and Predaking smiled internally. That was only a whistle a TechnaFury could do, and therefore Talus had found him.
Predaking turned his large structure around and he turned to wait for Talus.
As soon as he did, he felt a splitting pain in his chassis as a massive explosion rocked his entire frame.
"SSSHHHRRRIIIEEEKKK!"
The force of the explosion was massive, throwing Predaking back and he slammed into an old building that crumbled under his weight and buried him in rubble.
Predaking laid there for a second before he slowly rose to his servos and pedes, he shook the rubble off of his helm as he opened his optics.
Predaking hissed in pain as he looked down to his chassis and his optics widened in surprise as he saw he had a large hole on the right side of his chassis, thank Primus it wasn't near his spark.
But the armor had been splintered and it was bleeding Energon...which was very hard to do with a Predacon's armor.
Predaking's helm snapped up as he heard a TechnaFury whistle again and his optics widened as he saw a large bolt coming at him fast.
His structure acted before his processor and using reflexes he didn't know he had, he barely jumped out of the way before the blast hit the ground where he had stood just a klik before.
The explosion burst from the ground and Predaking flew and slammed into the ground with a roar, the landing made a fairly large crater in fact.
Predaking slowly rose to his pedes as he opened his optics and looked into the night sky, he couldn't see anything.
Predaking felt a confused rage fill him, why was Talus attacking him?!
Predaking then heard something that filled part of his spark with...fear?! Fear because he heard...nothing, not a sound.
Predaking's optics narrowed, he was being toyed with by Talus! He was a king! He was King of the Predacons slagit!
He was her king!
Predaking spread his wings before he gave a massive roar, she would face him like the warriors they were!
"SSSSSSHHHHHHRRRRRRIIIIIIEEEEEEKKKKKK!"
Once Predaking was done he looked around and his optics narrowed as he looked around into the night sky, he didn't see anything at first.
Until his optics widened as he saw the TechnaFury form flash by his right with shocking speed, Predaking immediately charged up his firebreath and he shot a blast of his dragonfire in that direction.
He clearly missed, but he needed to know why Talus was attacking him.
Suddenly the left of Predaking exploded as another bolt hit the ground next to him, sending him flying with a roar of pain.
Predaking's massive structure screeched across the metallic Cybertronian ground as he slid and soon he came to a complete stop.
Predaking growled in pain as he opened his optics, and his optics widened as he saw another bolt coming towards him, he scrambled to his pedes and servos, but the blast hit his left abdominal armor.
The armor exploded into shrapnel and his muscle cables ruptured before he slammed into another building and he fell to the ground like a limp ragdoll.
Predaking didn't move, he was gasping through the pain, it was incredible.
Predaking opened his optics slowly as he heard a TechnaFury whistle again and a few flaps, only to have the TechnaFury land with a large tremor just six Arns (Yards) in front of him.
Predaking slowly rose to his pedes in pain as he coughed up Energon, he shook his helm and looked at the TechnaFury.
Predaking's optics widened when he realized that...the TechnaFury's optics, they were...a blazing yellow like his own.
This...This TechnaFury wasn't Talus!
The TechnaFury's blazing yellow optics narrowed before it gave a bellowing roar as it charged at Predaking with a massive roar.
"RRRRRROOOOOOWWWWWWLLLLLLRRRRRREEEEEE!"
The Skies Above the Sea of Rust: Five Cycles ago
Another TechnaFury form cut through the air, it the 'only' TechnaFury on Cybertron.
It was the one and only Talus, she flapped her large wings a few times as she shifted her stabilizer fins to keep her level with the ground of Cybertron.
Talus' optical pupils were almost completely dilated, which indicated her mood, immense sadness and a reluctant acceptance of her condition.
At least Smokescreen could understand her growls, roars, and purrs now. So it wasn't all bad.
Talus had personally hoped that her saliva would have healed her neck, intake pipe, and voice processor back to where they were before Starscream awoke.
But she was stupid to not realize that her saliva only went down a completely different pipe and into her fuel tank.
Talus sighed softly as she flapped her wings once as she looked at the beautiful night sky and she purred softly.
Sure this was a bad condition she was in, but she would adapt and make it her own! Just like with her right tailfin!
Talus gave a small growling chuckle, that Earthling saying was right. Good things come to those who wait.
Talus turned her helm to where she saw the Mark 4 tailfin working and twitching in unison to her left tailfin, and she smiled softly, sure she couldn't feel it, but she had to have some trust in her spark that it would work correctly when she needed it.
Just like she did with Smokescreen when he was controlling it.
Talus thought about Smokescreen, he's probably wondering where she was by now.
Just as she thought that, Talus heard her Comm. link activate as a fellow Predabot by the name of Divebomb came on.
':Hey uh, Miss. Talus, uh Mr. Smokescreen said I shouldn't contact you yet, but may I speak a concern really quickly?:'
Talus gave a small grumble to let him know that she was listening and that it was alright for him to talk to her, she felt better than she did a while ago.
Talus heard Divebomb sigh in relief before he said concerned, ':Okay so uh, his majesty Predaking apparently went to go find you a short while ago and he hasn't in for a while, which is not like him. So uh, I was wondering if he was with you, or if you had heard anything...uh have you?:'
Talus gave a sharp snort, she hadn't heard or seen anything in regards to Predaking since yesterday.
Divebomb continued in her Comm. link, ':Scrap!...Uh could you try and find him please, you're the best tracker on Cybertron ma'am. If anyone could find him, it's you.:'
Talus snorted softly again, sure, she would find Predaking. If he wanted to find her, he clearly wanted her company or he needed to tell her something.
':Good, thank you ma'am very much, Divebomb out:', with that he hung up and Talus' Comm. link went silent once again.
Talus took a deep intake in through her olfactory sensors and she soon faintly caught the scent she was looking for, and her tracking instincts told her that Predaking was surprisingly nearby.
With that, Talus flapped her large wings and she took off into the horizion in search of the Predacon king.
Predaking gave a roar as he slammed into the ground with a large tremor and screech of his armor scraping against the ground as he tumbled onto his side.
Predaking opened his optics as he slowly rose to his pedes and servos with a painful grunt escaping his denta.
Predaking looked at the TechnaFury form that was slowly stalking towards him, his optics narrowed as he made a decision.
Predaking quickly transformed into his robot form and he glared at the form before he demanded, "Who are you? *Cough* *Cough*", Predaking spit out some Energon before he froze solid completely in surprise when he heard the TechnaFury...actually speak!
"Well, well, well. I must say I am impressed Praetorrex (Prey-Tore-Ex), you finally learned to speak the language of the Primes that I was trying to teach you all those Stellar cycles (Years) ago and more", the TechnaFury form actually spoke in a very deep mech-like voice.
Predaking looked at the TechnaFury in bewilderment before he asked, "Who are you? And why do you attack me? I have done nothing to you!"
The TechnaFury's blazing yellow optics narrowed in anger before he asked with rage in his tone, "How do you not recognize me Praetorrex? For I was your dear friend at one time!"
Predaking blinked his optics before he exclaimed, "I am not this Prey...tore...ex! I do not know whom that is! Nor do I know you!"
The TechnaFury suddenly gave a bellowing roar before it reared up and slammed it's helm into Predaking's chassis.
Predaking grunted from the impact as he slammed into the ground, and a massive right foreservo slammed onto his chassis and the clawed digits dug into his armor.
Predaking glared at the TechnaFury before the beast above him exclaimed in rage, "We were friends! No! We were brothers! Yet you betrayed my family when you chose the cowardly way to escape the Great Fire!"
Predaking opened his mouth to speak before the form lifted him up and slammed him into the ground with a massive shockwave that came as Predaking's form smashed into the ground with splinters of metal and a large crater.
The TechnaFury form glared at him before saying, "It is your fault that my family, my clan is dead! If you had taken the deal that Prima had offered you! He would not have convinced Primus to trigger the Great Fire!"
Predaking had wide-optics for a moment, before he processed this before he asked softly, "...What?"
The TechnaFury's optics narrowed again before the servo lifted off of Predaking and it backed away before it demanded in rage, "I challenge you Praetorrex, become that as I am, your natural beast self! So that we are equals in combat like in the days of old! Then you shall pay for my family and clan's deaths!"
Predaking's optics narrowed as he tensed his structure up, even his own instincts told him to never back down from a challenge, it was a sacred vow you never denied! You never said no to a challenge!
Predaking glared at the TechnaFury before he said, "In the name of the mighty legions of Predacons who preceded me, I accept your challenge! But I will tell you this, I am not this Praetorrex you continue to accuse me as, for I am PREDAKING!"
With that, Predaking transformed into his beast form and charged at the TechnaFury with a mighty roar of his own.
The TechnaFury's blazing yellow optics narrowed before he exclaimed in rage, "For my family!"
With that, both mighty Predacons charged at each other with large roars.
Talus audio sensors rose immediately when she could have sworn she heard Predaking roar in pain
Talus strained her audio sensors as much as possible before she actually heard it again faintly.
"Ssshhhrrriiieeekkk."
Talus optics narrowed as she growled in rage before she took off at her top speed in the direction where she heard Predaking's roar.
Whoever was hurting Predaking would have to deal with her now!
Predaking roared before he spread his mandibles wide and slammed his jaws shut on the TechnaFury's neck armor, of course it didn't do much to the armor.
The TechnaFury roared in rage before it slammed it's helm into Predaking's own horned helm.
Predaking's helm and neck structure whipped the other way before the TechnaFury slammed it's jaws onto Predaking's shoulder joint and squeezed down like a vice.
Predaking roared in pain and he slashed his other servo's claws across the TechnaFury's faceplate with sparks coming from the impact zone.
The TechnaFury roared in surprise, clearly not expecting that, before Predaking literally slowly pried the vice-like jaws open with all of his strength.
Predaking then curled up his right clawed digits and he actually punched the TechnaFury's helm as hard as he could.
The TechnaFury roared again in surprise before it lashed out and slashed Predaking's left abdominal wound even more open.
Predaking shrieked in pain at the wound, but he would not go down without a fight! Predaking roared and lashed out with a clawed servo.
The TechnaFury dodged Predaking's claws and it slammed it's helm into Predaking's chassis as hard as it could.
Predaking roared in pain as he struggled to intake now. The TechnaFury then slashed at Predaking's chassis, slicing into the internal components deeper than it's blast did previously.
Predaking growled in pain as he glared at the TechnaFury with a hissing growl.
The TechnaFury gave a low growl back to the Predacon King. Predaking roared in rage before he charged at the TechnaFury.
The TechnaFury's optics narrowed and before Predaking even touched it, the TechnaFury dodged Predaking's structure and bit down on Predaking's tail.
Predaking roared in pain before he was pulled into the air as the TechnaFury took flight rapidly, carrying Predaking into the sky, higher and higher with increasing speed.
Predaking roared as the TechnaFury suddenly let go of his tail and he started to fall.
Predaking roared as he folded out his massive wings and he started to stop himself, but he felt a massive plasma bolt explode dead center on his spinal struts, right where his wing joints were.
Predaking roared in pain as he started to fall with speed. Only for the TechnaFury to slam into him with a high velocity, both mighty Predacons fell rapidly and fast.
Predaking saw the TechnaFury continued to flap his large wings to speed them toward the ground until it suddenly let him go. Predaking was confused until he turned around and his optics widened when he saw the ground coming up fast.
The TechnaFury shot out a massive bolt at the Predacon King again, and just as Predaking slammed into the ground with a massive tremor and crater, the bolt hit Predaking's already damaged chassis and exploded.
Once the smoke cleared, Predaking was laying in the crater, his chassis now had multiple ruptures of bleeding Energon flowing out of it with the armor shredded off and his internal components and muscle cables could be seen.
Predaking faintly heard a whistle before the TechnaFury roared with it's landing.
Predaking slowly opened his optics shakily as he weakly looked at the TechnaFury, before he coughed up a massive glob of Energon.
The TechnaFury folded away it's main wings, stabilizer fins, and tailfins before he said in the same voice as before, "You disappoint me Praetorrex, or Predaking as you decide to call yourself now. I expected a better fight than that"
Predaking weakly glared at the TechnaFury before it said, "Why you deny what you have done? I do not know."
The TechnaFury glared at Predaking before it speeched out, "You were my king Praetorrex, my brother, I loved you. But because of your arrogance and unwillingness to listen to anyone but yourself, you cost me my family.
As you once told a poor weak Cybertronian before you extinguished their spark and consumed them. I give you the same courtesy and extinguish your spark quickly in honor of our past friendship.
As you told that last Cybertronian before the pact with the Primes, prepare to perish!"
The TechnaFury reared up as the back of it's mouth glowed brightly, it was a fully powered shot and it would surely kill Predaking.
Predaking's optics widened in fear as he gave a weak roar of fear.
The TechnaFury was about to fire before it paused at hearing...yet another whistling sound.
But that was impossible! He should have been the only one left...unless?!
Suddenly two massive explosions hit the TechnaFury's right side as it roared in pain, getting thrown away from Predaking from the source of the blast.
Soon the all too familiar TechnaFury form of Talus landed by Predaking, she saw the state Predaking was in and she roared in alarm before she ran over.
She gently nudged Predaking's helm and he looked at her with a weak growl escaping his mandibles before he fell into stasis from the intensity of his wounds.
Talus' optics narrowed as she growled as the other TechnaFury burst from the rubble with a roar of rage.
Talus snarled and with a roar she charged at the other TechnaFury, who's optics widened in alarm before she slammed into it with a shockwave.
Talus immediately bit down on the armor of it's right shoulder joint and she was shocked to find it didn't even bend.
The other TechnaFury growled in rage before it slammed a servo down on Talus' helm and she roared in shock, that hit actually hurt!
The other TechnaFury roared and knocked Talus off of her fore servos and back pedes before it whipped it's structure around and kicked her away like an Earthly Donkey or Horse would with it's back pedes.
Talus slammed into an old building and it collapsed onto her as rubble covered her completely. But a klik later, Talus burst from the rubble with a roar and she glared at the other TechnaFury.
The TechnaFury glared at Talus right back before it froze solid in shock and surprise as it's optics widened as wide as possible with it's optical pupils nothing but slits of disbelief as it stared at Talus.
Talus shook the metal shavings from the rubble off of her armor and she was about to attack the other TechnaFury when it's large yellow optics widened and tears of Energon formed in it's optics before it asked in disbelief, "T-T-Toorzii?"
Talus' blue optics widened as she felt a large sharp pain hit her very processor as another flash appeared before her vision.
'She saw a cave wall, as well as scribbles, scratches, and marks along it. She knew these to be words, in fact, writing!
She heard a voice, behind her, laughing gently, with a deep baritone. She turned around.
"Toorzii?"'
Talus gasped as she struggled to intake, she felt sick to her tank as she shut her optics to ground herself.
She took a few seconds to recuperate her senses and she slowly opened her optics and looked up.
The TechnaFury mech slowly walked over to her calmly with the same amazed expression on it's faceplate and before Talus knew it, the TechnaFury was less than a two espes (Inches) from her own muzzle.
The TechnaFury mech gently sniffed Talus' own muzzle a few times, he seemed to be concentrating very hard.
Talus blinked when she saw small Energon tears making their way out of the other TechnaFury's optics and he said in a tone of disbelief and unrelenting happiness, "I-I-It is y-you! Y-You smell t-the exact same a-as you did s-so long ago! O-Oh P-Primus heard m-my prayers! O-Oh T-Toorzii!"
Talus cocked her helm a bit before she suddenly had the other TechnaFury's helm and neck wrap around her own very tightly. Talus was about to lash out when she realized that the other TechnaFury was...hugging her!
The TechnaFury mech then said softly as he cried gently, "Y-You survived! A-All these cycles! Y-You're here! I-I'm not alone!"
Talus just let the other TechnaFury hug her until he backed away and he looked beyond happy and relieved to see her.
The TechnaFury mech looked at her with so much care in his optics before he asked hopefully, "D-Did your brother s-survive? What about y-your carrier? Is she alive to?"
Talus just cocked her helm, what was this TechnaFury mech talking about. To be honest, she was still in shock at the helm splitting headache and the other vision when he said that, called her that name.
The other TechnaFury cocked his helm a bit at the lack of answer before he asked softly, "Toorzii? Are you alright? Toorzii?"
Talus growled softly before she shook her helm softly, why did that word sound so familiar to her?!
The TechnaFury mech gently nudged her with his muzzle before he gave a soft purr, Would she understand their natural speech better?
Talus' audio sensors snapped up as she looked at the other TechnaFury in a bit of shock, he could speak like her!
Talus didn't understand what was going on, and her helm was aching with a vengence, but she quickly gave a small grumble to the other TechnaFury, Who was Toorzii? What did that mean?
The TechnaFury blinked in surprise and a bit of confusion before he gave a small cautious grumble, She was Toorzii. That was her name.
Talus blinked softly, a bad theory was worming it's way into her processor of the likes she wished she hoped she was wrong, very wrong.
Talus gave a small growl, Who was she herself to him?
The other TechnaFury blinked in surprise and confusion again before he answered with a soft grumble, She was his femmeling...his sparkling!
Talus froze in shock and surprise...
...She now realized what was going on...
Her theory was right...
She herself was a TechnaFury...
...He was a TechnaFury from the past whom somehow survived the Cataclysm...
Not just any TechnaFury...
...Her sire...
No...
...Her ancestor's sire!
...He lived!
