Hey guys, I'm back with an update. This story is progressing well if I say so myself. I'm so happy that people are actually reading. Btw, I just skipped like a lot of episodes. Just for your information, they progressed how it was supposed to be. This episode is Crisscross, one of my favourite. You should go read Hexalys's version of how Crisscross turned out. Its awesome.

Although the first person to ever review to my first fanfic, PhenexGundamKai, is still the only person that reviewed other than someone else. So I dedicate this chapter to him/her. If your here, this is the least I can do.

"Jack!" Jack's eyes fluttered open. He was still webbed to the wall, and he could hear his mother calling him.

"Mom!" He said. He saw the overwhelmed look in her eyes, the sadness, the pain, the shock. And it was all Jack's fault. Airachnid was still in front of her, and Jack watched with grief and horror as one of Airachnid's spider legs reached up and slid a thin straight line down his mother's cheek. "Jack." She moaned. He never had been so helpless.

"Mom, it's going to be fine." he told her, but he knew it was a lie. He was hit with even more guilt when his mother believed it.

"Aww, so adorable. You humans are just so touchy. So Jack-" Jack knew what that tone meant. He shuddered as one of Airachnid's spider legs reached over and cut his cheek. Blood gushed down, trailing down his neck and some went into his mouth.

The liquid made him mad. He was mad. He was mad at Airachnid for doing this to his mother. He was mad at Silas got his mother involved with this. He was mad at his father for not being here to protect her. But most of all, he was mad at himself. It was because he had hung around with the Autobots, that his mother was dragged into this.

I will give you the power to help others...Jack's eyes shot up. He felt anger coursing through him. Felt the need to protect himself and others, but he couldn't transform. He couldn't.

"-I want you to beg for your mother Jack. Beg for her! BEG FOR MERCY!" Airachnid yelled, bloodlust glowing in her optics.

Jack wanted anything it could take to get his mother to be freed. If it meant he was going to be tortured, induced with pain every second while his mother took in a breath of air everyday, than he was prepared to do so.

"Airachnid," He began, his head low, his body shuddering in fear for his mother.

"leave her alone, take me. Do whatever you want, but leave her alone." Jack said, sobbing.

"Jack." His mother said in horror and shock.

Airachnid grinned. To see the creature that had embarrassed her, that had humiliated her, was pleading for mercy made her dark and cold spark jump with joy. But her thirst was not over yet.

"Sorry but no." She chuckled. Jack looked up at her. "No! You can't do this!" He yelled. He suddenly squirmed against the web, trying desperately to free himself.

"Not even a drop of your blood will please me Jack. Because the worst kind of pain, is the one that you can never heal from." Airachnid chuckled again.

"NOOOO!" Jack yelled in fear and anguish as Airachnid prepared to torture his mother.

"AIRACHNID!!!!!" The dark femme was sent flying by a kick to the faceplate as Arcee appeared.

"Jack." She quickly cut the webs. Before she could properly cut June's webs however, Airachnid engaged her in a fight.

"NO!" Jack yelled but it was too late. The web holding his mother from certain death, snapped. "JAAAACK!" She screamed, tears in her eyes as she flew towards the ground.

Mother and son locked eyes. Son felt a powerful emotion run through him.

Love.

There was a bright flash as suddenly June was snatched from the air by a servo.

"Mom." She looked up and stared into deep calm blue eyes. The optics of a Cybertronian. The optics of Jack.

"Jack?" June asked standing up. Jack was now over 26 feet tall, with a sleek aerodynamic body painted black. His servos, abdomen, thighs and faceplates were silver. His helmet resembled that of Optimus, but his secondary color scheme was a dark blue. There were dark blue lines zigzagging across his body and his helmet was of the same color.

"Your safe now." Jack held her gently while he jumped off the platform, landing with barely a jolt on the ground below.

"Your safe now." He said and put her ontop of a large metal container.

"How'd you?" His mother asked, but Jack shook his head. "Later, but now I have to help Arcee." He turned around and was about to walk away when June called. "What is it mom?" Jack asked.

"You look just like your father did before he went for war." She said proudly.

Jack smiled then turned his attention on the two femmes.

Suddenly his processor opened a file with millions of years of fighting knowledge. His blue optics flashed once before his arm shifted into two blasters. Four holes that spun around everytime he shot, so as there was barely a delay time to his shots.

He fired at Airachnid, the energon bullets sending her off her feet and crashing into the ground with a yell.

Arcee turned around and gaped at the mech before her. "Who...?" "It's me Jack, long story but lets take her down!" Arcee nodded.

Jack switched his blasters to his secondary weapons, twin blades of pure energon appearing on the top of his wrist.

Before Airachnid could get up, Jack cut one of her spiderlegs clean off, letting her energon flow to the ground, while in the process he got a scream of pain from her.

"Who are you?" She asked, looking around for an insignia of some sort. "A neutral?"

"I am Static." Was all she got before she was knocked out.

This chapter was short and very crappy. But its the best I could come up with. I'm falling asleep here and I hope you guys liked it. PhenexGundamKai, I hope your OK with this chapter that is dedicated to you. Please send me reviews all of you. And I might not be able to update later. Either way I'll update, unlike some people (looks at people who are to lazy to update)

Stay awesome and yes, I totally took those energon blades idea from Spectre. See? I am honest! (Smiley face)

Spectristic Exit!
