"Has anyone seen Kanzaki?" Sugino asked as he was practicing his swing
"She's in Kyoto at the moment" Kataoka said
"Doing what?" Kurahashi asked while reading a nature book
"Miai" Kataoka said
"WHAT!" Sugino shouted surprised
"What's Miai, is that like Miami?" Bulkhead asked
"Doesn't sound like it Bulk" Smokescreen said
"It's basically a meeting between two people to see if a potential marriage is possible between the two"
"Or like a...a... I forgot the term for it, Hey Ratchet!" Smokescreen said
"A unison link, an invisible bond between two sparks that connect two transformers together for life; thought such a bond is very rare these days, the last link I saw happen was between Orion Pax and Ariel" Ratchet said
"So these Unison link, can they be one's choice or are they pre-arranged?" Kataoka said
"we still do not know much about it" Ratchet said "But that being said it is a mutual decision between the two" Ratchet said
"Sounds romantic" Kurahashi said
"I guess it is in a way" Ratchet said
"So what do you think Kanzaki will do" Sugino said
Kanzaki sighed as she was now in Kyoto for the day since her father had business there, so he decided was that it was time to think about Kanzaki's future. Only her future would be by his terms and not hers. Another thing that was a part of these was a katana that her family owned, apparently it would be passed onto who would be her husband. But so far none of them were likeable. Most of them just bragged about themselves while suggesting Kanzaki become a stay at home mother; something she didn't want to do. She wanted to be a nurse
"So do any of them take your fancy?" a calm voice asked
"Mother, sadly none of them do" she said
"I know this is difficult, but you have to choose or otherwise your father will" her mother gently said
"But all of them have decided what I am to do, which apparently is just stay at home and look after it as well as the eventual children. But if father has his way I follow in his footsteps and become a lawyer. But has anyone asked what I want to do?" she asked as she could feel tears coming to her eyes
"Hopefully you will find someone here who is kind and gentle and willing to listen; but you have to make a decision today" her mother said before walking off.
"I know" Kanzaki said sounding defeated.
"So this is where the device is kept, I better signal" Deadlock said as he pulled out a round device and pressed a button signalling someone
"Good work Deadlock" a gruff voice said
"Brawl, what are you doing here?" Deadlock asked
"Megatron ordered me to back you up just in case of the Autobot show up" Brawl said
"Understandable" Deadlock said
"Plus the human wants us to grab a new specimen" Brawl said
"You're kidding he wants one out of all of these pathetic bone bags" Deadlock said
"No, one of that Class is here" Brawl said
"What" Deadlock said surprised
"Yeah, her paternal unit wants her to do what these fleshies call 'marriage' which is their term from the Unison Link" Brawl said
"Excellent" Deadlock said transforming and driving off while Brawl stood there and looked around before transforming into a tank and drove off behind Deadlock
"Something's up with him" Brawl said
"Here we go" Kanzaki said as she walked into another interview, she did a bow and took a seat
"Hello" Kanzaki said
"Hey there" the guy she was meeting said acting cocky "So let's get down to things"
"Of course" Kanzaki said "So what are"
"I'm going to try and be a top lawyer" he said interrupting Kanzaki, who had a sinking feeling in her stomach upon hearing that. "But I know I can make it, so what do you see yourself doing, at home taking care of the household and the little ones we're going to have. Maybe spending some time with the girlfriends" he said looking smug
"I was actually hoping to be a nurse" Kanzaki said
"A nurse huh, well that's nice. But I doubt you can be a nurse while being a housewife" the man said frowning. Kanzaki was started to feel angry, but she suppressed it for now.
"I see, well I'm sorry but I don't think we'll work out" Kanzaki said before she glared at the man
"Shame, because you could have the best life with me" he said walking away before the door closed making Kanzaki collapsed holding her head knowing her father would not be happy, she looked over at the family katana knowing that her husband would be the one to hold it on their wedding. But she knew already that she had someone she wanted to make a romantic connection with, she stood up to go see if there was anyone else when the window exploded. She looked behind her to see two human like robots. She then noticed the Decepticon insignia on the chest. Kanzaki swallowed her nerves before she dive out of the way of their blaster. She looked around and grabbed the katana and drew it out of its scabbard and rushed at the Decepticon drones and stabbed it through the insignia, turning to face the other one while removing the blade from the first one and cut the second one's head off of its shoulder. Panting she fixed her hair before picking up the scabbard to her sword before the room half exploded
"She's tenacious" Brawl said seeing her take down the drone
"So what should we do?" Deadlock asked
"Send in the Vehicons" Brawl said as two metallic purple cars charged off
"I'll go with them to retrieve the femme" Deadlock said transforming before racing off
"Lord Megatron, I soon will have the girl" Brawl said
"Very good, but something is off" Megatron said
"What do you mean?" Brawl asked
"The Spy is no longer on board the Nemesis" Megatron said making Brawl realise something, he looked top where he sent his troops
Kanzaki recovered from the blast and turned to see a Vehicon that had transformed and was aiming at her with his cannon, so she grabbed the sword while kicking off her sandals landing on the cannon looking down at some wires, she smirked before stabbing them disabling the cannon before she forced the sword into its arm as much as she could before slowly dragging it up the arm, only to be thrown towards the ground making her scream.
"YOU IDIOT!" the other Vehicon said before a white Supercar jumped in the air and caught before driving down the street "Autobot!" it said before the pair transformed and raced down the street. The two tried to get at the Autobot, who simply slid around the corners. They were confused as to who it was that was driving. Inside the car Kanzaki was freaking out
"Don't worry, I've got you" the car said
"And you are?" Kanzaki asked
"You can call me Drift" Drift said
"How is he here?" Ratchet asked seeing a new Autobot tracker showed up on the system
"Who?" Smokescreen asked
"Drift" Ratchet said
"Impossible, I thought his spark expire on Cybertron" Ironhide said
"Unless" Arcee said
"Unless what?" Ratchet asked
"Remember Drift was a Decepticon, so maybe he rejoined so he could spy on them and get us the information at a later date" Arcee said
"Reactivating his old codename to get close to Megatron, while brilliant it is risky" Ratchet said
"Anyway we should help him out" Smokescreen said
"We may not have to" Ratchet said
"What does that mean?" Ironhide asked
"Are we safe here?" Kanzaki asked
"Hai" Drift said as Kanzaki exited out of the car before grabbing her katana, next thing she knew the white Supercar which was now sporting a red sun decal transformed into a Samurai looking Autobot. "Hello" he said politely before scanning the area "We should head back to base" he said before the sounds of multiple engines sounded alerting Drift to several new Vehicons appeared making the two go for their swords, this made the samurai smiled as he drew his twin swords and stabbed two of the Vehicons before stabbing two more behind him, Kanzaki he cut the fluid lines to a Vehicon's foot making it disabled giving Drift a chance to elbow him in the face before he was fired upon, but not by a Vehicon
"Drift, I should have known. After all Deadlock defected to the Autobots" Brawl said opening fired. Drift curled around Kanzaki to protect her
"HEY BAWL!" a voice cried out as a white rally with red and green on it smacked into Brawl before transforming and draw two scimitar like swords twirling them "So funny meting you here"
"Wheeljack, I am honour to fight beside you" Drift said
"Likewise" Wheeljack said as they stood back to back while Kanzaki twirled her sword and was about ready to strike when three Decepticon drones appeared. She gracefully smiled before swinging her sword three times, each one destroying a Drone with each swing "Girls good" Wheeljack said before an explosion happened forcing the good guys to see a Tank in the middle of Kyoto
"Some things never change" Drift said as he took a stance, quickly scanning teh Kanzaki family sword making a cybertronian Katana formed on his back, which he drew out and pointed at Brawl.
"It's over" Drift said as he sliced the tank shell fired at them clean in two. Wheeljack acting quickly shoved a grenade down the barrel of Brawl's tank form making it blow up. The two sword users were ready for more when a Bridge opened up giving Brawl time to retreat.
"SLAG!" Wheeljack said putting his swords away
"We'll get him later on" Drift said before turning to Kanzaki who was bummed that the kimono she was wearing was more slightly burnt and ripped around the edges
"I liked this as well" she said
"KANZAKI!" a voice shouted making her look over to see Smokescreen and Ironhide idling nearby while Sugino ran up to her
"Sugino, what are" she started but was interrupted by Sugino kissing her.
"Brave kid" Smokescreen said
"Or foolish" Ironhide grunted
"Sugino, what was?" she started
"I like you" he said cutting her off again, "I'm sorry I just didn't say it before now" he said
"It's okay, I like you too" she said gently kissing him
"Is this a Human Unison link?" Drift asked
"No, this is what they call kissing" Smokescreen said
"Anyway I suggest we clear out of here" Smokescreen said
"I agree" Dirft said transforming and allowing Kanzaki and Sugino in before the three Autobots drove off, unaware that someone was watching them
"Time for rematch" the watcher said in a gravely growl. "One that will decide our fate" he said before vanishing into a gate.
G'day Guys Grizz here Yeah that happened, I knew from the beginning I wanted to bring Drift into the picture and I figured he was a samurai so why not have him appear in Kyoto and then I added the marriage things with Kanzaki which gave a reasonable excuse to have her in Kyoto as well, plus I just wanted her to use a Katana since she had a staff weapon in an exam so I figured why not? Originally it was going to be Knock Out then I switched to Brawl for some reason then added in Wheeljack in the sword brawl since he's a fun character and that hidden character will come into play soon
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
