Transformers Return of the Dark Lords Chapter 1
A metallic landscape was that seen from the camera's point of view, it was peaceful before a violet wave of energy crashed into the ground before the stairfilled sky above was lit ablaze in a multitude of explosive colours.
The ground shook before two sets of energy of violet and blue collided creating a shockwave of the two combined colours that distorted the area around them before disappating enough for two figures clash with their respective glowing swords.
These metallic titans clashed their glowing blades crating a distorting field around them before others from both sides joined in the fight.
A multiple being of various sizes and shapes clashed in a world breaking battle that shook the very foundations of the world under them. from between the clashing two first figures continued to clashed as the earth shakening battle rages around them, the more heroic of the two wielded the glowing blue long sword with grace while his foe bashed his glowing blade with brutal ferocity putting the heroic cybertronian on the defence before his Enemy unbalanced with an upward slash that knocked the glowing saber out of his hand along with creating a deep gash in his chest plate where energon began to flow from.
The wounded bot tried to back paddle away while clutching his wound before the brutal bot sank his metal claws into his large wound and lifted him up, Energon dripped down the metal limb suspending the heroic bot from the metal ground before the foe lifted his glowling violet blade towards the struggling bot in a purposely slow sadist manner before-
-end dream-
"AHH!" Jack cried out as he shot up from his sleep. The human friend of the living robots known as the autobots was experiencing another robot filled nightmare in which he was always that terrifying Cyberatronian with energon dripping hands.
It had not been long since he had went to the dead home world of his autobot friends in order to recharge an ancient artefact that returned the memories of the autobot's leader Optimus who after sealing Unicron away had suffered amnesia.
Not long after helping the giant red truck transformer did he start to experience these crazy dreams as of late, at first they started small, a flash here of the god like robot being known as Unicron before developing into a full on nightmare depicting chaotic blood chilling battles on the cybertronian homeworld that was a lot more dead and destroyed then when he saw it.
He had yet to tell anyone of his nightmare's because he had thought they would disappear like all bad dreams do but after a week of suffering with them he was now beginning to believe that something was wrong with him.
He didn't know how he was going to tell his friends or if he should tell the one being with knowledge about Cybertionian affliction's but with little knowledge about the human mind.
Jack was conflicted on what to do but quickly realised that it was morning given that the sun was shining through his window. He sighed as it was again another day in his life filled with talking robots and an intergalactic war, kicking off the sheets he moved to get dressed for his ride/ autobot partner Arcee.
-later-
Jack was riding through the Navada canyon on a blue motorcycle, the 2 wheeled vehicle swayed and speeded down the empty road with expert manuvering while Jack eye's continued to gaze ahead of the almost never ending road to the large towering rock, his eye's were unfocused on the road ahead yet he seemed to pilot the motorcycle well.
"You alright partner?" spoke a female voice that emenated from the blue 2 wheeled vehicle.
Jack snapped out of his world to looked down upon the talking motorcycle "yeah just… thinking." He replied to the Talking vehicle that was Arcee. The only female bot on the team or on the planet since the other was probably in space on board the warship containing the universe's most dangerous warlord.
"Thinking about what?" she asked, curious on his thoughts.
"There's… something wrong with me that I need Ratchet's medical expertise on."
"What do you mean? What's wrong with you!?" Arcee asked out of concern, it took the female bot some time to get acquainted to him and relaxed enough to call him partner after the death of her two closest friends.
"I don't know until I can have Ratchet look at me for the answer." Jack answered, not wishing to get Arcee any more frightened then she already is, after that the ride was long and silent before they made it to the towering spire of rock and drove right through the invisible wall that was hiding the entrance to the Autobot's secret base.
They manuvered through the tunnel before arriving at the centre of their operations where everyone was there included Raf and Miko who were playing games on the TV with Bulk head and Bumblebee, Jack got off Arcee who transformed into her Actual bipedal form. The loud transformation had caught the ears of two other human children in the large silo room "Hey Jack!" Miko called out to him from the couch before focusing back on the tv.
"Hey Miko. Raf." He responded back as he continued to move to the main platform over looking the entire room.
"Hey Jack. You wanna play?" Raf asked.
"Not at the moment, I need to Talk about Ratchet about something that's been plaguing me as of late." Jack made it up to the main platform where the elevator to the helipad and the silo doors was, and stood on the large platform next to the computer console and the ground bridge controls where the Old bot was working away.
"Ratchet. You got a minute?" Jack called out to the ambulance style grumpy old medic who breathed out in irritation.
"I Suppose. What's wrong." Ratchet sighed out as he continued to work away without so much as glancing towards Jack.
"I've been having these weird visions as of late-"
"Talk to your human doctors. I'm a cybertronian expert not a human expert."
"That's the thing, these visions are about cybertron." That halted the older bot in his work as he turned to fully focus on what Jack has to say regarding his homeworld. "I've been dreaming almost the same dream for a week straight after the retrieving the matrix from vector sigma. sometimes it's on another planet but the robots fighting are always the same."
"Hmmm. And have you been experiencing the same recouring dream even when awake?" Ratchet asked as he studied Jack with a keen curiously look on his old face, however unbeknownst to the two, one red and blue styled tall bot walked in and stopped when he heard what Jack described next.
"Not until 3 days ago…. I keep seeing these 13 cybertronians always fighting. And the worst thing is, is that I'm always the same person in them and my hands… are stained with eragon." IT was more then just a bad dream featuring fierce brutal battles, in them Jack not only saw them from the perspective of same bot, but he also experienced the thrill, the gleeful satisfaction of his enemies energon dripping down his metal hands, and that's what frightens him because those weren't his emotions but the emotions of monster who takes pleasure in violence and pain.
"… The energy from the matrix must have been absorbed into you, gifting you with the memories of the primes of the past."
"But the why am I seeing from the eye of the one who's fighting them with another 12 by his side." A deathly silence followed as the old medic's eye's widened in fear along with Optimus who appeared to be more afraid then ever, even the Unicron incident didn't invoke this much fear in the veteran legendary leader.
Heavy silence was frightening to behold for Jack who knew that this was a bad sign if old medic was this terrifyingly silent about some bad visions "…Ratchet?" he called out the autobot doctor who returned back to reality with a hesitant expression.
"It… could be possible that your linkage to Unicron though small has… unlocked some hidden memories of the past." The old bot theorised, his knowledge about the human anatomy still minimal compared to his knowledge about the Cybertronian body.
"you think?"
"It's… a Theory that I'm not proud to say but these visons may be a temporary thing that will pass with time. Still I would advise you to temporarily stay here under my watch until I have a clear answer to your condition."
"But who are the beings's fighting each other?"
This time it was Optimus's turn to answer as the large red and blue leader walked up to beside the old medic revealing himself to the two "I'm afraid that is ancient history. One I dare not talk about at this time." The fear and hesitation was present in the leader's eye's.
"Right. Anyway I'll go get some of my stuff." Jack said before getting of the commad hub stand and moving to the ground bridge Ratchet just activated for him and Arcee, once their forms had disappeared the bridge collapsed leaving only the old veterans alone in the base to contemplate this startling news.
Ratchet turned to his leader started with voice heavy in fear "Optimus.. you don't think-"
"I Pray to the allspark that what young Jackson is witnessing, is forever lost to time as it should be."
"First Unicron, now this! I hope to Primus that this doesn't escalate further in that direction." Ratchet sighed out as he leaned against the wall near the computer, spark squeeze doubt and fear filling him being before a reassuring grasp on his shoulders caused him to look to his leader.
"I pray that you are right my friend. For this Is one enemy that even I dare not speak of."
-with Jack-
Jack was once again in his home, courtesy of his autobot partner who gave him a ride back but the trip back was silent between the two given that the two wheeler had heard the conversation between him and robotic doctor about his visions as of late that brought about nagging feeling in the female bot's mind that she tried to think hard on but whenever she did the memory slipped away from her.
Jack had finished packeting his bag full of clothes and necessities before moving to leave the house, halfway as he approached the open door to the garage where Arcee in her vehicle awaited but then he suddenly stops.
he stands there for while, deaf to his Robot partners calls as his dark eye's become lifeless and blank before his forms drops to the ground instantly and he lays there unconscious and blind to the screams of his transformed robot friend.
-Dream-
Darkness surrounded his form, the small human teen looked around the seemingly endless abyss that he was standing in only to see an endless darkness where ever he looked.
His own breathing and heartbeat echoed throughout his surroundings deafening him to all sounds that might've been heard. Jack didn't know what to do or make of his new environment as he was not in the war scared battlefields he had been in before but an empty abyss that seems to go on forever from what he see's.
After what seemed like an eternity as he looked around he spotted something that wasn't there before. In the darkness a pair of blazing Purple eye's peered from the darkness and gazed upon his form in an unnerving glare that chilled him. The eye's seemed to approach before the sound of heavy metal footsteps echoed throughout the darkness, Jack instinctively back away from it in fear from the approaching being in the darkness.
"Stay away!" he cried out trying to get away from what ever was approaching him before he got a good look at what was walking towards him and was paralysed with fear before screaming in terror as darkness enveloped him.
-Outside the dream-
Outside the unconscious body of Jack who was laying on a medical table, the teen boy was taken by the concerned Arcee who signalled for a ground bridge before taking the unconscious body of Jack to their autobot base and handed him directly to Ratchet who hooked him up to some earth medical equipment that he had laying around after the Dark energon incident with Raf.
The old cybertronian medic was watching the medical data he was getting from Jack while at the same time performing his usual duties at the base. He wasn't seeing any concerning abnormalities from the scans of the young boy, only the increased brainwave activity that would suggest that he was dreaming those visions once more as far as the medic knew.
His mother was immediately notified about the sudden collapse of her son and was on her way but from time to time Ratchet had to focus more on the team who were currently out thwarting Megatron plans again, a mistake that would comeback to haunt him soon enough.
An hour or so of coordinating with the team he turned to his left to check on the boy only to go eye wide at the absence of said patient.
"Jack!?" Ratchet called out in surprise at the sudden disappearance of the boy, he forgot about computer and his duties and focused on finding the missing patient from his care, the old bot searched high and low around the base, calling out to him only to receive no reply or see hide or hair of the still missing teen.
Afraid for the boy's safety he continued to search the entire base, leaving no stone unturned but alas he still found no sign of Jack any where so he returned to the central hub and checked the security footage.
-With Jack-
The boy missing from the medic's care was walking through the navada desert in a steady zombie like manner as his unfocused eye's were blank and lifeless with a violet glow to them.
For hours on end the young teen did not stop or get distracted in his journey through the endless desert and deserted landscape and past many mountainous terrians before heading to just one large mountain ahead of him.
He walked directly toward the lone large mountain ahead of him, his blank unfocused eye's locking onto the large rock formation that grew larger as he got closer and closer to it before long he was at the foot of it where a large cave, big enough for a cybertronian to fit through was right in front of him.
He continued on his journey into the mouth of the cave and disappeared into the darkness within.
-later-
Jack continued to stroll through the cave, following pathes and routes he was unfamiliar with but went through them anyway until he soon came upon a large cavern that was a lit with the large pool of refined Dark energon that bubbling and pulsing with energy.
Jack walked up to the active pool of Dark energon and strided along the connecting stone bridge to the middle of the entire energon lake and stood upon the edges of the small island over looking the lake of energon all around him.
He stood just inches away from falling, his eye's continuously starring ahead in an undead fashion with those blank eye's. His foot lifted up and moved forward causing his body to tilt towards off the edge, at the last moments before he fell his eye's returned to life and the first and last thing he'd ever see was the active lake of dark energon before he plummeted down screaming and landed in the large pool where his immersed form was burned in the pool of violent liquid energy.
-flashback Eon's before the birth of the Cybertron race-
In an apocalyptic part of a half destroyed world orbiting Cybertron, a gigantic world sized titan sat within his destroyed/ harsh castle upon the scorched and hellish world he had conquered. Unicron was recovering from another battle with his rival and brother Primus and his champions who had shifted their endless battle in favour of the being of creation and order.
The cybertronian god of destruction and chaos contemplated his next strategy of attack against his enemy "Primus has created warriors to aid him in his fight against me. And these primes are proving to be irritable pests." Growled the ancient powerful robotic titan who slumped against his fiery and make shifted melted throne. A hard look of thinking washed over the being old face before a look a thoughtful expression crossed his face "It's time I created Champions of my own.".
Unicron stretched his hand out and willed the dark energon within his being, an orb of violet purple energy gathered before him, his finger's danced and the orb shifted to their movement above it. Unicron focus as he pictured within his very mind a warrior worthy of being his champion and before him the orb took a humanoid form with a pair of wings protruding from it's back.
Before long after completing the details of his creation did the glow around the floating being disappear and it dropped down to the ground hard before the titanic before in a kneeling pose.
Unicron stared hard at being kneeling before him, his opened his mouth to command the creature he had created "Arise my creation and become my champion. Rise my child. Rise Vulcan." His loud booming voice filled with ancient and primal power boomed down to the figure before him.
The being raised his head to look up to the towering titan, Red blazing optic's met with violet powerful ones before the newly created male cybertronian spoke in a powerful yet young voice filled with authority "Master."
Unicron for once smile in triumph at creating the perfect tool of his vengeance "You are my instrument of Destruction. The bane of Primes and the enemy of Order."
The being stood up before the titan and proclaimed "I will stain the very ground of their world with their energon."
-back with the autobots-
Back at the base, things were not going easy for the old cybertronian doctor, for one Jack's mother had arrived and demanded to know where her son was after hearing he had collapsed. but before the old medic could get a word out, the ground bridge had to be activated and Arcee came charging in demanding the same thing to which he answered truthfully.
"What do you mean Jack is missing!?" It took bumblebee and Bulkhead to pry the angry crazed blue 2 wheeler off of him and one finger to keep the panic and enraged mother from using the wrench to dent his frame.
Ratchet picked himself up from that experience and made sure to keep a safe distance from two as he answered "It is as I said. one moment he was here on the table, nothing out of the ordinary. The next he's getting up while I'm talking to you and immediately wanders out of the base like a drone."
"so Jacks still out there!" Arcee and June yelled out in anger with the transforming 2 wheeler moving to leave only for Optimus to get in the way.
"Arcee wait." The Leader of the autobots said to the blue femme who couldn't help but glare up at him for preventing her from searching for her human partner.
"But Optimus. Jack is out there and what if he's in danger right now!"
"And I agree with you Arcee. We are all worried young Jack but I am more concerned with these visions that he has been receiving since coming back from vector sigma and I fear that they are more just memories of ancient time."
This time it was Ratchet's turn to interject "Optimus… you don't believe that these visons-"
"Are signs of something far worse to come." Optiumus finished.
"What about Jack? We must find him before something happens to him." Both Arcee and June said at the same time.
"And we will. Ratchet do a search analyse of the surrounding terrain and plot a course of where Jack could be given the current hours of his absence."
"that's going to be hard Optimus given most of the mountains populating this area has yet to be truly explored and that he could be anywhere."
-3 days later in the cavern-
The bubbling lake of dark energon pulsed like a heart beat, at first starting slow before picking up the pace to a thumping mass that deafened all sounds in the large cavern as thumm resonated within the very cave before suddenly stopping.
The Pool of Dark Energon stilled after all that , an eerie silence fell over the cavern as the glow from the pool dimmed and lost it's overwhelming power, a Ripple appeared in the middle of the lake of active energon followed by more and intense waves that crashed against the walls surround it before- *Boom!*
Like a volcano the lake of dark energon exploded like a geyser, shaking the foundations of the mountain it was in before a large sharp leaped from out of the pool and crashed onto the Island in the middle of the lake.
The titan like figure kneeled on it's knee's and hands, the shadows of the cavern obscuring his form that had unique Physical notabilities that could easily be seen in the barely lit cavern.
For one a pair of horns curved upwards from the side of the helmet, a pair of large none flyable wings protruded from the back along with curved-in blunt shoulder guards.
The large figure's eye's opened to display burning red orbs that held a deep seething hatred and rage within them as they glared down towards the bridge connecting the small island it was on to the rest of the cavern floor.
It stood up to a full height that was taller than even Megatron's form before walking down the bridge and leaving the cave all together.
-1 day later, in a forest with arachnid.-
It had been nearly 2 weeks since the incident involving Unicron the Choas Bringer and her attempted coup against Megatron when he was down there with Prime to silence the ancient Cybertronian god.
And Airachnid was on edge.
She knew well enough the Consequences of her failed act and was stepping on egg shells around the… sane warlord who's back and in charge. She knew he was well aware of her attempt to leave him behind even under the right pretence that he was either off line (Dead) or under the command of Unicron but her attempt was thwarted by his Loyal silent lap dog Soundwave who humiliated her in front of the entire crew and ending any chance of her reigning them against him.
Not that they would, given that most of them was too spineless to object to the silent con's devotion to die with his master.
She had been preparing in the event that Megatron will order her death, which was soon no doubt should she give the proper cause or something else has.
When she was assigned this task to locate an energon source with Dreadwing and Breakdown. It wasn't uncommon for an elite con to pair up with two or one with some extra muscle to aid them but with their numbers being only her and two loyal bots to Megatron, Airachinid was feeling highly suspicious about this assignment.
Her history with Breakdown was tense as it is given that she tried to steal from him and avoid Megatron all together before a certain annoying 2 wheel magnetised them both and she was forced to once again work under the war lord.
And finally the newest member to their ship. She had heard tale of the twin con's Dreadwing and Skyquake Loyalty and honour to Megatron and she didn't doubt that the last living twin would die if Megatron commanded it.
"Am I the only one here who considers this to be overkill on lord Megatron's part?" she wondered out loud, breaking the silence between them as she strode ahead of the two larger bots "I mean despatching two of his most proficient warriors to track down one unconfirmed energon spike."
"Megatron knows that me and Dreadwing here will get the job done." Breakdown boasted.
"Actually I was referring to Dreadwing and myself." Airachnid Quip causing the Growling Breakdown to march towards her with anger on his face before Dreadwing stopped him.
"Breakdown! Remain on task." Dreadwing halted the strong built wrecking bot "This is to be a unified effort." Airachnid now knew that was a set up given that he didn't chastise her as well and at how easy Breakdown was goaded which she knew to spin to her advantage but before she could speak however, an explosion sent all three flying in opposite directions with her by her self and Breakdown and Dreadwing all together on the otherside.
All three con's picked themselves up and followed the direction of where the blast came and saw a tall intemindating figure standing not to far away but the low light from the moon barely illuminated his form to see him truly. "Step away from her." he spoke in deep tone full of power and authority that Megatron could never possess. Yet as she hid behind the rocks she couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity and kinship with this new being that might've saved her, but what truly unnerved her was the blazing inferno's that was his eye's that she couldn't help but feel mesmerised in.
"Who are you? Identify yourself!?" Dreadwing demanded, unsheathing his large cannon from his back and aiming it at the foe before them while Airachnid scurried away silently to a safe position to watch this interaction.
The being's blazing eye's narrowed at the Loyal con with Annoyance and anger before he spat out "You do not command me whelp, Nor do you get to demand who I am." Airachnid watched as a familiar and terrifying glow of power gathered around his unarmed limbs and formed a set of two violet glowing cannon's on his limbs that he used to shoot out large bolts of energy that littered the place with craters.
Dreadwing and Brakedown were force to take cover from the powerful blast's that would've easily destroyed their forms upon impact, they fired upon his form from their cover only to watch in horror as their shot's had no affected on him and simply bounced off his armour without so much as making a dent.
The being marched towards the two in a steady stride despite the blaster bolts hitting his form, he dropped down to their level and before their optics could blink he was right in front of Breakdown who barely had a chance to put up his defence before the new bot grabbed him by the head with his large hand and hold the strong built wrecker up from the ground without struggling.
Breakdown tried to break free from his grasp only to fail at the being's strong grip, Dreadwing aimed his weapon at him and opened fire to which the being spun the heavy duty mech in his hands in the direction of the bolt that collided against the helpless con.
Breakdown cried in pain as Dreadwing's cannon bolt collided against his back, Dreadwing was forced to lower his weapon in realisation that he couldn't shoot without risking Breakdown's life.
He sheathed his weapon and unsheathed the long sword from his back and cautiously approached as not harm Breakdown further "In the name of Megatron Surrender now or be destroyed." Dreadwing commanded this new foe.
But a smirk appeared on his foe's face and before he knew it the being swung Breakdown at him, the large thrashing bot in his arms collided with the other con and parts and pieces flew through the air as the being used Brakedown as a club against Dreadwing who tried not to his harm his captive comrade but was quickly bashed away by the broken and beaten mech's body that laid limp in the being's grasp.
Dreadwing watched in horror as a purple glow gathered around his free limb, transforming it into blade to which he used to impale the captive bot through his chest where his spark (Heart) was.
The figure threw the now dead Breakdown at dreadwings feet who realised that he was severely out match and out powered, his mission was to snuff out the traitorous second in command Airachnad but clearly this being wanted her so bad that he'd kill just to get her. He didn't know why but only hoped to the all spark that it was for personal revenge so with duty in his spark and mind to report this new foe and the loss of one comrade he yelled into his comlink "Soundwave! I need a ground bridge now!".
A swirling green vortex opened behind him and he wasted no time in retreating to report the failure of his mission, once he form had entered the vortex collapsed leaving only the being left with the corpse of Breakdown and the still at large Airachnid who watched the whole exchange from the shadows of her hiding spot.
The being dropped his guard and stopped the flow of power in his limbs which transformed back into their original form before he turned in the direction of where Arachnid was thrown. He slowly march in that direction, his red blazing eye's looking in the forest and rocky environment around him for her.
"Hide and seek. While I enjoy games like these, I'm afraid they'll have to wait until later my dear." He called out to her as she maneuverer around the treeline and quietly used her spider appendages to move about silently around him.
He tried to pinpoint her location when she spoke "While I do thank you for ridding me of one pesky mech, I'm afraid that I don't feel confident enough to Introduce myself to an unknown bot who's practically impervious to blaster fire." Her voice echoed throughout the empty forest as she stuck close to the shadows that this area allowed while she stealthly followed her new target from the tree's.
The unknown bot soon stopped in the middle of a small area where the rocks around him served as an arena or prison with the only way out being the way he came in and he wasn't going to leave because he put himself in this situation to draw her out "You know who I am, Just as I know the one being who makes my spark beat so loud and hard within my very being."
Airachnid was surprised by his forwardness and was honest to the allspark that she was feeling quite flattered by his flirtation, it had been a long time since anyone had the spine or the spark to firlt with her. Recomposing her self she climbed up to the top of one of the tree's surrounding the small space he was in and called out "My you're quite the flatter. Too bad my Spark belongs to another."
"He must be quite the bot then to have one as loyal and beautiful as you."
Airachnid was feeling more and more touched by his honest words and felt that slow torturous death was unworthy of mech who continues to shower her with loving words."Keep it up and I think you'll make him jealous. And you wouldn't like him when he's jealous." She crawled down to ground and peered over the rocks to see the back her prey standing there looking up at the sky, venom drooled from mouth as she readied her web to snare him.
"Trust me, I have nothing to fear from him."
She aimed her hands at him "Foolish words from a dead bot." she hissed and with a flex of her wrist a large snare of web shot from her hands and speeded directly towards the seemingly unaware bot who at the last second dodged the line of web by leaning to the left then grabbing the snare with his hands and pulling Arachnid before she could cut the line.
He swung her around to the dead end of the of their rocky arena where she slammed into the wall but quickly recovered to settling into her bipedal fighting stance.
The being stood before her, his red blazing eye's holding "How I missed this side of you Arachnida." Upon being called that Airachnid tensed up, her dark purple optic's were filled with fear and suspicion.
"Who are you, and how do you know my name!?" she demanded readying herself before the tall figure in the shadows who mearly chuckled at her defensive stance.
"I'm hurt that you've forgotten about me." he started, walking into the light and revealing himself to her, Airachnid optics went wide with surprise and shock of who was standing before her "My love." The being now reveal was taller then Megatron with a lean strong build to his black and golden armoured form that was terrifyingly magnificent to behold, a skeletal rip cage armour piece adorned his black steel midriff with red highlights and joined with the upper chest armour.
Solid curved shoulder pads adorned his shoulders with black wings protruded from his back, the three fingers of the wings were large black steel frames with gold highlights running along the side of them.
His golden helmet was much like Unicrons with smaller black horns as it protected his young face.
All in all he looked like a younger version of the chaos bringer himself which was frightening to think about or so much as see.
But with the Spider con, Airachnid's optics stared at tall golden armoured cybertronian in disbelief and longing "Vulcan!?" she gasped in utter surprise and happiness at the sight of long lost love.
Finished.
I hope you all enjoyed that.
Some of you may be wondering why I described him to be a younger version Unicron? well the answer is that as a being created by a cybertronian god, Vulcan (Jack)was the first of Unicron's creations who made him in his image because he is the embodiment of his will and power and is technically his child by all definitions.
Also in the next chapter there'll be an explanation as why Jack as become Vulcan, why he sought Arachnid out, and how is Arachnid related to one of the 13 embodiments of Chaos and Destruction and how she managed to survive this long without being found out during the Cybertronian war.
