We 3 woke up again and got to the main campus, once again our path was blocked, more pipe issues, I checked my D-blank and contacted X-II and asked he about the block, she said there shouldn't be anything there, she said to simply stay at the main campus and see if anyone else comes by, we stayed at the gate just in case anyone else walks by, up until lunch time, no one came by, X-II came down from the old campus to take us up there but there was something wrong, Kel tugged at Eliot's shirt and pointed at the tree, the leaves had stopped moving, not as if the wind wasn't blowing, but the leaves had, stopped, no movement what so ever, it was as if, time was frozen, locked with in a second, I called X-II once more, but nothing, the D-blank never runs out of signal, its used Dragoness as a sender, in fact I couldn't even get a hold of Dragoness, no one would respond, we stayed at the gate just a bit more, we ate our lunches and waited, nothing happened for another hour, well, for us it was an hour, my D-blank had recorded when all signal was lost and that was around, well, 5:38AM and now it was about 2:14PM, it was annoying" uh, Nero's, what is that?" huh? We looked and saw something flying about, it was some kind of jet, I think, it was either really high up and moving fast, or really close and moving normally, it was just flying around the city, even going between the buildings, it came closer and closer to our location, it flew overhead at great speed, judging by the size and shape of it, it wasn't a maned plane, more like a drone, we kept low, out of site, it was moving unlike any drone I've EVER seen before.

It circled back around, it looked as though it was going to hit the school, we ducked down and waited for impacted, but nothing, Kel shrieks and tucks down, I look back and scream, what stood before us was a tall, slim and imposing figure, it was a machine of some kind, it stood over us and watched, we couldn't see its face, it was covered by a black screen, it was a faded light metallic blue colour with a black and grey under tone for the mechanical parts, it was crouched down and hunched over, we back up into the corner, neither Grande nor Nexus would wake up, the time lock must be effecting them as well, this machine just stayed there, watching us, Eliot just snapped and stepped forwards" WHAT DO YOU WANT!?" he stood there, shaking, I could tell he was afraid, but he stood his ground and faced this thing, it stood up straight and looked down at us, it still had a slight hunch in his posture, its arms were almost as long as it was tall, the screen on its face light up, we could see some on it, Kel laughed at it, on its screen was a purple and red smiley face, did this thing use emoticons to talk? I got up and tried to calm Eliot down, it worked but we were still on edge, the bot looked around, we didn't know what it was looking for, in fact, we didn't even know what was happening, but one thought rang out in my head, did this thing cause the time lock? If so, then we could be in some real danger here, this thing may kill us, and no one even know, with our Nexus or Grande, we are pretty much sitting ducks just waiting to be hunted.

It was about 9:00PM at night for us, but the sun was still beating down, Kel had already fallen asleep under a tree for shade, Eliot was closer to sleep but kept jolting back up, I look at our new 'guest' as it were" are you the one that caused this? Just come out and say it already, were all trapped here so you may as well talk, at least, tell us your name, I bet mum or dad would know who you are, all the worlds they've been to, all the stuff they've seen, heck you may even know who they are, maybe" it looked at me and lent close so I could see the screen, it displayed text that said 'try me', I smiled" ok, IL describe mum first, big, fluffy, she has cream coloured fur, 2 large and 2 small rams horns on her head, a large thick tail, and the lower part of a kangaroo" it rendered a few drawing of her but didn't have a match" ok, then maybe dad, ok, uh, purple scales, gold armour, green visor" it stepped back when I said that, I thought, maybe it knows" and lastly, mechanical right arm" it flinched and stepped back even more " the Herald" it actually spoke, its voice was deep with a metallic tone to it, did it know dad?, I had one more thing to say" his name is Ben" it flipped out on that one, it just started to panic, it was looking around franticly like it thought he was around here "the Herald" what does it mean? The Herald? Was dad some kind of messenger or something?" what do you mean by Herald? Is dad some kind of threat to you" it calmed down a bit before speaking again" the Herald of the Deceptions, a creature decent from 2 of the original Cybertronians, the 2 Heralds to represent the 2 main factions on our home world or Cybertron, the Herald of us Deceptions is the more violent but more compassionate of the 2, the Herald of the auto bots, is another matter altogether, he is cold, ruthless, but never enters battle directly, both are the most dangerous creatures to have ever been on Cybertron, even the Quintasons fear them, luckily they never travel to the planet at the same time.

Dangerous? I could understand powerful, but dangerous? That just doesn't fit, either of them" what about, X-II" he turned his head to look at me" the Herald of the Maximals, they are, much more, calm, compared to their other half, they may cooperate on freeing us, if we had a device they call, a D-watch" D-watch?, I look at my wrist and thought, would the D-blank work" what about a D-blank? Our parents gave them to us, they act the same as the D-watch from what dad has shown, would it work?" they shifted in their stance, from what I could see, he was possessing the data, once he was done he turned to me, a mechanical tendril moved from his back and connected to my D-blank" now we should be able to contact the Herald of the Maximals" after a moment the screen flashed, a beam shot from the watch and aimed for the top of the mountain to the school.

Ok, let's see here, there's a block at the main campus, but on the gas mains it shows no issues, in fact, there aren't any pipes there, something isn't right" I got up from my seat and walked out of the class to go and get the kids, just as I step outside a beam of light hit me and knocked me out, when I woke up, things were, a little different, I looked around, on first glance a human would think nothing was wrong, but for me, something was up, time had stopped, my eyes are adjusted to see different wave lengths and I wasn't seeing the normal wave length, I rushed down the mountain and to the gate, I stopped right at the entrance of the school and gasped, what was a Decepticon doing here? I ran over and grabbed Nero, he was rather shocked by my actions but I had a good reason, I set him down by the tree with the other 2, I stood up and faced the con" well, isn't this a surprise, Soundwave, what you doing here? have you done to them? If you hurt them, not even Shockwave will be able to put you back together and retain your spark, you had better" uh, Nero tapped my shoulder" he didn't do anything, he only help by calling you, he also said about the Heralds" uh, what? I look at Soundwave in anger, I grab my left arm and say" Form Shift" my body glowed and then flashed, after a moment my body changed to that of a dragonoid, much like my fathers, but I had no wings" you WOLD THEM! You, IDIOT! Their human, do you know what you have done? You told them of the Heralds of Cybertron, how many did you say?" he stepped back and turned his head away, on his screen he displayed the number 3 with the 3 logos, Autobots, Decepticons and Maximals, I sighed at that, I stepped closer to him and smiled" well, I guess I can't be angry at you for that, as long as you didn't reveal who they were, then you don't have to worry" Soundwave continued to look away and grabbed his left arm, I growled at that" you told them huh? Well, I guess someone gets an ass kicking, your servos are going to be damaged after this" I get ready to jump at him but was stopped by Kel, when did she wake up? She stood in front of me with her arms held out wards, she just looked at me, her eyes saying he was a friend, I sigh in defeat" I guess its decided, if I were father then we would get along just fine, but I am no con, remember that Soundwave, well, I guess it would be best to get you guys back to the real realm rather than the shadow zone, how long have you been in here?" Nero rubs the back of his head, Soundwave leans in close, his screen lighting up once more, it displayed how long the kids were here for" WHAT! Over24 hours? Oh my word, I am so sorry guys, there must have been a flux in the vail" the screen flicked once more and displayed his own time" 5 years? You've been here for 5 long years? Oh my word, those kids back then must have given you a run round to end up here, it's alright Soundwave, your safe now, you can come home with us if you like, I guess dad would be happy to have one of his favourite cons around.

I gathered everyone around, Eliot was fast asleep, Kel was nodding off, and Nero was wide awake, how could he last for this long? I know of humans who stay up for hours upon hours, but even they would show signs of needed sleep, but Nero, he doesn't even look tired, in the least, he looks like he just woke, maybe this place isn't effecting him with the flow of time, maybe it's different for him, Il have to ask mother about that" is everyone ready?" they all nod, well, those who awake that is" ok, Dimension Break" I punched the ground, the force of impact causing crack to form in reality, the cracks grew and grew until it all just shattered, time started to flow as normal now, before anyone could see I teleported us all to the old campus for safety, Eliot was fast asleep and so was Kel, Soundwave didn't know what to do really, he just looked around and examined the plant life, all of this was alien to him, Nero sat at his seat, Eliot was asleep slumped over his desk and Kel was asleep in the cupboard, I don't know why though, I guess, she just likes the dark, oh well.

The day went on, the other students called in from the main campus, I went down there and brought them up, as soon as everyone saw Eliot they just laughed, I will admit, it was kinda funny see him like that, , luckily they hadn't seen Soundwave, he must have been employing some kind of camo, I just hope it lasts, half way through the day Eliot woke up with a jolt, everyone else was outside playing a game of football, well, Nero was still sitting there, how can he still be awake" hey teach, when are mum and dad coming back?, you said wed see them soon, but, when?" I looked at Nero, I could see his sadness, the tears were building up, I had to look away, if I look at people showing emotion for too long I may end up short circuiting, I wasn't made to feel, until I met dad, I know just how these guys feel, dad isn't home most of the time, but, having mum around helps, but due to the situation here, she isn't home, but at least we can Pop in anytime we like, as long as there's no one else here, I look out the window and sigh" I guess I have no choice, the truth is, mother and father can't come back" Nero stayed still, frozen in shock" what?, cant, come back, but what about the Eye of Rah? Dimension Breaker? That gate way from that samurai world? What about those? Why can't they come back?" I could clearly see his sadness now, even I was sad" they ran out of time, each time we come here, there is a timer, once it runs out, we have to leave, and we can't come back for another 1 year or so, buts it not the same for everyone, for dad, it takes around 100 to 1 million years to return, the other way to bypass this, is to die" Nero stood up and pulled his knife out" and what about you? What's your timer say?" "it says one week, I only have one more week here, and then one of the others will come here, to protect you all, it's our job, the family moto, don't mess with a DX, it's our way of life, you 3, your DX, your part of the family" the rest of the class stood there in the door way, I only just noticed them and jumped in shock" uh, how long were you standing there?" they all stayed silent and took their seats, things were getting more, awkward now, the rest of the day was, quite as it were, no one made a sound really other than needed to step out of the room, it was plain and simple, Eliot fell asleep again, I said to the class to just let him sleep, he needed it.

At the end of the day everyone stepped outside, but were met by a not so pleasant face, the principle stood there, with that smug look on his face, he stood tall and smiled" hello L-class, what a lovely day to be outside, and for your classroom to be demolished" but, we still had 2 days, he must be bluffing, I ran over to the teach and tugged at her arm" he can't so this, not now, if he demolishes the classroom then mum and dad won't come back!" everyone heard me, Kate was wondering who I was talking about, I stared at the man and then took a few steps closer "you won't be demolishing anything, not as long as I'm still here, Nexus" as if on cue, my shadow grew, she rose from the darkness and grinned "what is your wish, My Treasure" she slurred the T a little on treasure, I smiled and simply pointed at the head "bind him" Nexus aimed one of her shoulder cannons and fired a net, it spun round him and bound him in place, he struggled to move and even fell over, everyone laughed, I guess seeing Nexus doing something funny makes her less, scary" you do know I own this land, so even if you wanted to demolish this place, you would have to get permission from the land owner, as in ME beforehand" we all turn around and face who ever spoke, it was her, that dragoness, the others were kind of scared, but me, Eliot and Kel were happy to see her again" listen human, you want to cause these kids trouble, then do it right by challenging them, not just playing the whole bad grades low respect cards, they get higher grades then your cowards on the main campus, you're the head teacher of the school, ACT! LIKE! IT!" wow, she's loud, she lets the man go and we all watch him run off, we all turn to her and wonder, is mum back?" don't worry Nero, we came back, no more trouble, no more pain, and no more hiding Soundwave!, yes I can see you over there" as if on cue Soundwave stands up and cautiously walks around the building before attempting to leave" don't even big guy, remember, I could just call any of the bots, and they would come running here to catch you, do you Really, want to be caught by a bot that badly? If so, then just say it" we all watched him and waited, after a moment he gave in" Rider Superior, Soundwave Inferior" the dragoness smiled and then started to laugh" oh man, I never thought ID hear those words from you, now that's every generation of Soundwave who've said those words, oh, I'm going to enjoy this, oh and, don't worry, I wasn't going to call the bots, I just wanted to hear those words" he wasn't too happy at that, he reached out to grab her but didn't" never said I couldn't though, ha, fooled ya, like the bots would even take me seriously, with all the prank calls I give them each year, I doubt even Necros could get them to believe me" wow, she's a trouble maker.

After everyone had left so we went back inside, X-II was giddy after seeing the dragoness again, she stood in front of the classroom and smiled" it's good to be back in here, oh, I almost forgot, I should at least get the hole name thing out of the way, first off, it doesn't matter what you call me, either your mother or your father, I don't give a damn, whatever you feel comfortable with calling me, or, you can use my name, at the moment being female means I can't really be called Ben, so I guess IL go with D for now, that just feels right, second of all, Rroooosaa is, unable to come back right now, there's, something we need to talk about first though before she comes here, but that, needs to be in privet, third, we have to come clean fully in the next few days, next week in fact, I scheduled a bit of time in the main assembly, I and the other teachers you guys have will come clean about the whole situation, but, we will be keeping the whole, blow up the earth thing, it's kinda fun, also, Sakura seems to have scurried off somewhere so, we may need to find her" this was going to be fun, dad or mum uh, whatever, they were back and mum maybe coming back soon, it was awesome, oh yeah, uh sorry about all the strange view changes, for some reason everyone is just randomly making entry's and not saying who's writing, oh yeah, Eliot here this time, things were going to be fun.

My turn, you guys, D here this time, we all went home and had dinner, X-II was happy to have a home cooked meal rather than having a TV dinner as they were called, Kel and Eliot fell asleep on the couch, I didn't want to disturb them so I let them sleep there for the night, X-II, Nero and I sat in the kitchen, Soundwave had been shrunk down much to his dismay" ok, Nero, here's the deal, the reason why we haven't come back fully, is due to your mother, she's, well, how do I put this, she's, pregnant" the look on his face, it was priceless, I couldn't help but giggle at that, it took a while for him to snap out of it, it was funny, both I and X-II were on the ground laughing, Soundwave just kept replaying our laughter over and over which made us laugh even more, it was like a perpetual motion machine, I didn't know how to stop it until" SHUT UP!" we all looked at saw Eliot and Kel with disapproving looks until they saw Nero, oh this was going to be fun" why is Nero staring off into the distance like that? And why were you 3 laughing like hyenas?" me and X-II got up still laughing a little bit" sorry guys, you're going to need to wait till Nero is back to normal before we can tell you" X-II had a smug look on her face, she whispered in my ear and gave me a good idea" or, I could just say it now" Kel perked up at this and bounced in excitement" ok, here's the reason we were laughed and why Nero is frozen, your mother, is pregnant" they had the exact same face, oh it was too funny, good thing I set Dragoness to record this part, oh it was too funny" mum will come back soon, we just need to change a few things here is all, we just need to move a few small thing around and change the layout is all, we even need to change the size of the house in fact, she's rather big at the moment, even bigger than normal, I don't even know if she will be able to go to class and teach in her condition, but knowing her, she will, just for all the trouble she could cause" after snapping the kids out of their daze we sent them to bed, X-II took the spare room" thanks dad, for letting me stay" X-II would rarely show emotion back home, but here, she was happy" your welcome, now, get to bed, Dragoness is on a timer till 11, good night" I slept outside as normal, on the porch in my hammock, it was the only way for me to sleep without pain In the morning, I gazed up at the stars and smiled" when you come home, things are going to be fun again, no more stupid threats from the main school, those kids won't need to worry, right? Rroooosaa?" as if she would answer from across the galaxy" of course" my eyes flick open and look at the garden, there she was, her big round self-standing there in the dark" I guess my honey roo couldn't wait to return here, you want to spend the night out here?, or indoors?" she simply smiled and walked over, she was much bigger than before, she was now at least 15ft or more, her belly protruding a good amount, her tail had thickened greatly and even grew longer, she took a seat next to my hammock and closed her eyes" good night My little dragonoid" I smiled at that, I loved being called hers, it felt right" good night, Rroooosaa".

Little did we know there was a problem, back to the main campus a dark mass moved freely around, the principle stood in his office overlooking the grounds" took you long enough to get here, how strong are you now? The dark mass rose from the floor and loomed over the man with large claws and fangs, its eyes burning yellow that piers through your soul "My power is no concern of yours mortal, just get things ready from my full arrival, and nothing more, but, there is one other thing for you to do, eliminate L-class and its teachers, they are the only threat I have, be rid of them" the dark mass left the room after that and wasn't seen again for some time,

Else were once more in another location, a young boy about 19 stood in front of a large stone with carvings scribed onto it" I guess it's almost time, just a bit longer now, and things will be settled, uh, what's this?" he picked up a card of some sort, he adjusted his glasses and examined the card, it had some kinds of symbol on it with the text ' Dimension world' he laughed as he saw this" I guess it's almost time indeed, right? Dad" he looked over his shoulder and looked towards the school, he smiled and then threw the card to the city," I guess it's time to play, right, Octavia?.
