"So much for being Robots in Disguise" Ratchet said looking up from Itona
"I agree, this many people knowing about you, increases the chance of you being discovered" Karasuma said
"What choice did they have, they were saving the boy Ratchet is working on and got exposed to Knock Out" Ironhide said
"Knock Out, what was that preening heap of scrap doing there?" Ratchet asked
"It turns out the cons have a human ally as well" Ironhide said
"They do?" Karasuma asked
"Yeah, so priest looking dude named Shiro" Ironhide said
"Thankfully it was these kids who discovered you since they know how to keep a government secret"
"That flying octopus right, what's that story?" Ironhide asked
"So let me get this straight for the pass while Earth has been embroiled in a shadow war fought but sentient machines from an alien planet that can transform into vehicles" Kataoka said
"Pretty much" Bulkhead said
"And why haven't you made this public?" Sugino asked
"Humans can be quite" Bulkhead said looking for the right word
"Humans don't understand things like us and you will act out of aggression until its gone" Arcee said "But luckily we've worked with the American Government and now the Japanese Government to maintain our secrecy and worked with them to maintain the safety of this planet"
"But we didn't blow up the moon did we, I mean not even Megatron's space bridge could have done that" Bulkhead said
"No that was done by something else" Kataoka said
"By what?" Bulkhead asked
"So that thing blasted the moon and is now a teacher with the government giving an assassination mission to kids all the while bribing the kids with more money then they'll see in their life time?" Ironhide asked
"Pretty much" Karasuma said
"That is something a teenager human shouldn't be doing" Ratchet said "They should be pursuing their dreams, falling in love, making many mistakes, but instead they are being forced to kill. It truly saddens me that I would have to hear about that" Ratchet said
"What makes it worse is that these kids are considered the worse in their school. Forced to be hidden away in a forgotten classroom on top of a hill, mocked viciously by their peers from not being up to the same standards as everyone else. But from what I've seen that teacher is probably the best thing that has happened to them, so I'm expecting them to find an answer to defeat that doesn't end in death" Karasuma said
"Me too Agent Karasuma, me too" Ratchet said before looking at Itona as he tried to remove the tentacles.
"Man, what a day" Nagisa said he got off Arcee once he got home and grabbed his bag
"What are you going to say to her?" Arcee asked
"I Don't know" Nagisa said "I mean how can you say to your parents you saved a classmate from a mad scientist while getting involved in a war involving alien robots?" Nagisa asked
"That sound like a cool plot, you a sci-fi writer or something?" Misa asked walking up
"Um...yes" Nagisa said
'scrap' both student and Autobot said
"Nice, and just say you were working on something in the library and lost track of time" Misa said
"Sure thanks, say why are you nice to me?" Nagisa asked
"Class E members need to stay together right?" Misa smiled walking up to her apartment, Nagisa looked at Arcee and shrugged before walking up to his apartment
"I'm home" Nagisa said
"You're home late" his mother said
"I was at the library helping a friend while working on something" Nagisa said
"Alright, but at least phone when you're going to be late okay?" Hiromi asked shocking Nagisa
'Why is mum acting like this?' Nagisa thought watching as his mother cook dinner 'this is really weird' he thought
"Are you okay Optimus?" Ironhide asked
"I have a bad feeling" Optimus said
"About what?" Bulkhead said
"What the Decepticons are up to, especially with that human scientist" Optimus said
"You mean the guy in the sheet, he seems sketchy to me as well" Ironhide said
"As well as that unknown Dark Energon signature" Bulkhead said
"HOW COULD THEY BE SO STUPID!" Ratchet shouted
"You okay there Ratchet?" Bulkhead asked
"That monster, he is playing with things he should not!" Ratchet said
"What do you mean?" Optimus said
"These tentacles are composed of Anti-Matter" Ratchet said "Though I am disgusted to say that I am impressed by the fact he was able to stabilise it so it wouldn't explode upon touching matter"
"What?" Bulkhead asked
"Anti-Matter is made up of anti-particles and is highly volatile and when it comes into contact with anything considered matter it will detonate" Ratchet said
"How badly?" Bulkhead asked
"a single gram of it could make an explosion like that of a megaton of TNT" Ratchet said
"WHAT!" Bulkhead said "THEN!"
"Yes, but they have somehow stabilised it so it doesn't explode" Ratchet said
"But what about the moon?" Ironhide asked
"A rogue sample" Ratchet said
"But why did it explode?" Bulkhead said
"I'm not sure" Ratchet said
"You let the Autobots grab the child?" Megatron asked
"I admit it was not my intention, in fact I was hoping to get a couple more for my experiment. But this is only a minor setback" Shiro said
"No, a minor setback is Knock Out's finish being scratched! What has happened is much more than that. Especially if the Autobots learn what we are planning" Shiro said
"I doubt they will, not even you know what my plan is" Shiro said
"Please, enlighten us" Megatron said
"If I did that then the Autobot would ultimately find out especially with their spy hiding in your ranks" Shiro said
"So you know as well" Megatron said lifting his eyebrow a bit
"It would only be the logical thing to do" Shiro said making Megatron frown
"Keep an eye on him Soundwave, because he is what they say somewhat fishy" Megatron said
"So why are you getting me to drop you off early at school?" Arcee asked as she pulled up with Nagisa
"A project that all of the guys are involved in" Nagisa said
"You don't sound too excited about it" Arcee said
"Yeah well" Nagisa shrugged
"Just remember even though you may not agree with it, it is important to spend time with your classmates" Arcee said
"When did you become my mother?" Nagisa jokingly asked
"Try older sister" Arcee said as she activated her rider avatar before taking off while Nagisa hiked up the mountain, unaware that something was stalking the group
"This is insane" Maehara said smiling
"And check out that clarity" Okajima smirked
"Are we really doing this?" Isogai asked
"Why not?" Maehara said
"Yeah we could use this to help in developing techniques to spy on Korosensei" Sugino said
"Why not just as the Autobots to help us with that?" Nagisa asked
"Seriously man?' Kimura asked
"Besides we all know that every guy here has a crush on one of the girls" Okajima said before Terasaka slapped him, Okajima was about to ask what the slap was for before he remembered "Sorry man, I know its hard" he said
"Yeah" Nagisa said touching the desk next to his
"We'll find her" Sugino said
"Besides it's not like the Decepticons have her" Muramatsu said making Nagisa freeze
"No it couldn't be could it?" Nagisa asked
"You're all a lot harder to catch than the last femme human I encountered" Starscream said. This only made Nagisa trembled before he pulled out his phone and dialled a number
"Nagisa?" Sugino asked
"Arcee I need to talk to Optimus now" Nagisa said
"What is wrong Nagisa?" Optimus asked concern in his voice
"Okay so at the beginning of the term one of my friends went missing, no one could find her" Nagisa said
"And that is our concern how?" Ratchet asked making Arcee frown at the medic know how much of a flame her new charge held for this friend
"Because I believe that she is in the claws of the Decepticons" making the Autobots more serious
"What evidence do you have?" Arcee asked
"Only something Starscream said" Nagisa said "Which was we're a lot harder to catch then the last femme human he encountered" Nagisa said
"Autobots" Optimus said making them all turn to him "Find Starscream" he said
"Yes sir" they said
"Ratchet open a ground bridge, and send Nagisa back to school, I'm sure classes will begin soon" Optimus said
"Opening a bridge, you better get going" Ratchet said
"Thanks, even if it was just to listen to a mad idea" Nagisa said as he walked through the gate
"Optimus?" Arcee asked
"He has gone too far this time" Optimus said
"And what's the bet that he does have her, then she's been used for Dark Energon experiments" Arcee said
"Then we have to find her and quickly" Optimus said
"The best bet we have is to find where the Nemesis is located and conduct a raid to save this girl" Ratchet said
"We've been trying for two years to find it" Arcee said
"Then we have to find a way to locate it" Optimus said
"Well now" Knock Out said looking at something
"What is it?" a Decepticon asked as they walked into the room
"Ah Deadlock, there you I have something I need you to steal" Knock Out said
"And that is?" Deadlock asked
"An experiment Anti-Gravity. With it we can repair the main engine and get out of this gigantic pond" Knock Out said
"Where is this device?" Deadlock asked
"A place called Kyoto" Knock Out said
"Anywhere more specific?" Deadlock said
"No, it unfortunately doesn't say where it is exactly, but knowing you; surely you can find it and get it" Knock Out said
"And does Lord Megatron know about this plan of yours" Deadlock inquired
"Not yet" Knock Out said
"I'm guessing you want it to be a surprise" Deadlock said
"Exactly" Knock Out said smiling
"Very well, I'll look into this but don't expect it to be an Energon Run" Deadlock said as he walked off
"Now back to my other experiments" Knock Out said
"Couldn't even get me back to the right room" Nagisa said before walked out of the bridge gate and noticed he was in one of the changing rooms "Oh well, at least I'm in
"NAGISA!" Kataoka said making Nagisa look up to see that most of the girls were in the room while they were mostly down to their underwear and he was at the opposite end to the door "This is the girl's room" she shouted
"I'm guessing Ratchet screwed up" Nakamura said smirking
"Rio" Nagisa said before he heard something behind him. Nagisa went to the window and was met with a pair of steel jaws "YIKES!" he said recoiling while bumping into Kataoka and Yada surprising them
"HEY!" Kataoka snapped
"Guys we have a major problem" Nagisa said looking afraid
G'day Guys Grizz here so this is just about the two groups figuring things out while seeing what the Decepticons are up and the first part of the mystery of what is going on has been solved, or has it? Not saying anything until around the Reaper arc which will be seriously different to canon. Also I may have introduced the Autobot spying on the cons in this chapter as well, but you will never see him coming
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
