Pokemon Prime: Beast Hunters
Rebellion
The Harbinger
"Autobots, we remain vastly outnumbered in despite our munitions. They don't currently possess the firepower necessary to compromise the Decepticon citadel." Ironhide said.
"My military does." Jenny said. "I just can't let them make a move as long as Megatron has his ray-guns pointing at every major city in Japan." (#1)
"Then we must infiltrate Dark-Moon in order to nullify its fusion cannons."
"Unfortunately, it seems the fortress is heavily shielded against unauthorized Ground Bridges." Ratchet said, looking at a monitor that has the energy schematics of the fortress. "Even those originating from Decepticon technology."
"Guess we'll have to sneak past enemy lines, Wrecker-style." Ultra Magnus suggested.
"I couldn't deal with 'Wrecker-style' back on Cybertron, and I refuse to deal with it here." Ironhide protested.
"Mmm."
"Now we require a means of thinning the Decepticon ranks to even the odds if we're to have any hope of completing this mission... or surviving it."
The underground cavern
Smokescreen paced the ground. "I-I-I can't do this!" He stops to face Optimus. "I mean sure, who wouldn't want to be a Prime. But I'm really not ready for that kind of responsibility."
"You're sounding less and less like a kid every day." Iris said.
"Smokescreen, the choice is neither yours... or mine... to make. When it is time... the Matrix of Leadership... will present itself only to one... who's spark is worthy." Optimus said.
Mt. Coronet, Sinnoh
Ash was at the lower peaks of the mount. "Because it worked so well last time." He took out his cell phone. He sent out a blank text.
The Nemesis
Starscream and Soundwave were monitoring all communications. Until they detected Ash's text. "I knew the humans couldn't resist using their telecommunications. That is all they seem to do." He said to Soundwave. (#2) He turned to a squadron. "Seek and destroy!"
The Harbinger
Max watched the monitor. "I have five bogies converging right on top of Ash."
"Not any more." Ratchet activated the Ground Bridge. Ash jumped through the vortex and gave him the thumbs up. He pressed his com-link. "Misty, your turn."
Castelia City, Unova
Misty stood in an alley in the center of the city in the middle of the night. She opened her cell phone. "Hello? I like to order two large pies. Chicago. You deliver right?"
The Nemesis
It wasn't long for the Decepticons to detect Misty's cell phone signal. Starscream laughed. "Humans." He turned to another squadron. "Stand by to Ground Bridge."
Soundwave grabbed Starscream's shoulder. He pointed to the monitor. On how Misty's signal coincidentally appeared shortly after Ash's signal.
"Soundwave, why can't you accept a little good fortune? The Autobots couldn't possibly stay hidden forever."
The Harbinger
Misty emerged through the vortex. "I really could have used that pizza."
"I have tapped into the Decepticon communications network. Are you ready, Brock?" Ratchet looked at his partner.
Brock cleared his throat. He spoke in his deepest voice possible. "Decepticon command, do you read me?"
An awkward silence. "I remained unconvinced." Ironhide said.
"I will enhance your performance with static." Ratchet reassured.
The Nemesis
"Decepticon command, do you read? We are under Autobot attack!" Brock said.
Starscream actually bought the performance. "It's one of our Energon mines. Insecticons, prepare for battle!"
The Harbinger
The monitor detected a swarm of Insecticons surrounding the mine location.
"Autobots, lock and load!" Ironhide said, he charged up his path rifle.
Bumblebee held the Cosmotector. Arcee held a Energon sniper pistol. Wheeljack held the handle of the Lighting Whip. Bulkhead held a thermo rocket cannon. Cliffjumper held a neutron assault rifle. Ultra Magnus held a few more rockets for his launcher.
Ironhide heard PokeBalls being activated. He looked back and saw Ash's Tauros, Dawn's Ambipom, Misty's Abomasnow, May's Blaziken, Brock's Magnezone, and Max's Poliwrath. (#3) "This is a mission specialized for Autobot personnel. Not for civilians who can tame a few... creatures."
"If I may objet here, sir." Ratchet said. "But the humans have trained their Pokemon to fight Decepticons. And they have been successful in the past."
"Very well then. I will not object to any form of reinforcements."
Gabby stepped forth. "Let me go with you, Ironhide. You've seen what I've done to that Cybertronian beast." Suddenly she yawned. She was engulfed with a light purple light and she shrunk down back to her normal self. When the light disappeared, there laid two year Gabby sleeping.
Dawn gently picked her up. She looked at Ironhide. "I think you're just gonna have to stick with the Pokemon."
Military/Air Base, Kanto
Agent Jenny rounded up a squadron of jet fighters and a few Altaria. Even she was in her personal jet. "Keep the engines warm, boys. And get ready to fly high, girls. We all launch the moment Ironhide gives the all clear."
A Decepticon mine
The miners were doing their usual mining routine. Until the sound of Insecticon shrieks got their attention. They came swarming into the mine. Two miners looked at each other confused on their arrival.
The Nemesis
A miner contacted the ship. "There must be some mistake, Commander Starscream the mine is not under attack."
Starscream was stunned. "What?! How can that-"
"STARSCREAM! Explain why my forces are scattering across this globe." Megatron said, monitoring the radar.
"Uh, renegade Autobot mischief, Lord Megatron. I am in the process of deducing how they are infiltrating our communications systems without a base of-" Soundwave interrupted by displaying the Harbinger on his face visor. "The Harbinger!"
Megatron slowly turned towards Starscream. "You left abandoned Decepticon technology fully operational and UNSECURED?!"
"Uh-I-Eh. Allow me to correct my oversight immediately."
Shortly afterwards, Starscream's armada was marching to the outside of the ship. Starscream was hear on the PA. "Seeker Armada to the flight deck. Your target; the Decepticon warship the Harbinger. You are to obliterate it at once!"
Starscream watched the Seekers on the flight deck. "My Armada is in position." He turned to Soundwave. "Open a Ground Bridge to the Harbinger."
BOOM! SHAKE!
Megatron watched the damaged readings on the citadel. "Except it would seem that Dark-Moon is presently under attack! Kindly redirect all efforts toward ensuring that invaders are eradicated!"
Meanwhile outside Dark-Moon
Ultra Magnus loaded his Energon launcher. "Fire in another hole." He fired the launcher. The rocket struck the main gate of the citadel. "Go! Go! Go!" Bulkhead and Wheeljack charged toward Dark-Moon. He followed after.
The Seekers received the new orders. They transformed and took flight. Targeting the Wreckers. Bulkhead shot down four of them with ease thanks to the thermo rocket cannon.
Wheeljack activated the Lightening Whip. He swung the weapon and it the string of energy extended into the air. Taking out three Seekers in its path.
Magnus fired the luncher at four Seekers that were fling low. Allowing for the Wreckers to transform and drive straight and true to Dark-Moon.
Elsewhere, a Vehicon sentry was watching the battle. He felt someone tapping their finger on his back. He looked back to see Cliffjumper, Arcee, Bumblebee, and the Pokemon team.
"Hi." Cliffjumper said. Then he slammed his fist to the sentry's face.
The Nemesis
The whole ship continues to shake. Due to it still being docked to Dark-Moon.
"I assure you, Master, I have everything under control." Starscream said.
Megatron turned and growled in response to Starscream's 'situation control'.
Shockwave stepped in. "Lord Megatron, I accept that military considerations are outside of my domain, but perhaps it is once again time to release the Predacon.
Outside of Dark-Moon
As the Wreckers were closing in on the main gate, so were the Seekers. Suddenly they changed their flight change and pulled up. The Wreckers transformed and stopped. They could hear a faint growl. Then they can barely spot Predaking crawling on top of the Nemesis. The Predacon shrieked at them.
Predaking took flight and nose dived at them. They opened fire at the Predacon. The blast fires was doing no harm to it. Just when it was gonna strike, Ironhide in his ship, the Ironclad, fired at the Predacon. That drew its attention to follow Ironhide.
Inside the Ironclad
Ironhide looked at the rearview monitor. Predaking was gaining up on him. "Ratchet, now!"
Outside
A Ground Bridge vortex appeared sent by Ratchet. Ironhide pulled up at the last second. Predaking, however, flew straight through it.
The Arctic
The Ground Bridge vortex opened. Predaking flew out from it. The weather was a blizzard. Causing it to crash landed on the snowy terrain. It roared in anger as the vortex closed.
It spotted a figure emerging form the windy snow. It was a Regice. Predaking roared in a challenge tone. It readied itself to attack the legendary golem. Regice complied by using Ice Beam. The attack instantly freezes Predaking.
The Nemesis
The Decepticons were watching the moments on when the Autobots Ground Bridge Predaking out of the area.
"Oh, well." Starscream taunted. Shockwave turned around and walked away."Yes. That's right. Go off and sulk, why don't you."
Outside of Dark-Moon
Shockwave stood on his on the dock bridge that connected to Dark-Moon. He jumped off and landed on a spire that was fifty stories below. He quickly jumped to a lower roof top.
The underground cavern
Smokescreen was by Optimus' side. "Who... stands... before me?" Optimus asked.
"What?" Iris asked confused.
"It's me, Optimus. Smokescreen."
"Who... beckons...?" Optimus' optics began to blink.
In Optimus' Mind
"Come, Optimus." Alpha Trion's voice was heard.
Optimus walked out of the darkness and into a bight light. "It is truly you?" A face appeared. "Alpha Trion."
"I stand before you, my student. As such, it would seem that it is your time." Optimus slowly lowered his head. "Why do you hesitate?"
"I do not fear joining with the AllSpark, but for the fate of the Matrix of Leadership."
"You know as well as I that a worthy candidate is near. One who will learn to be a Prime as you once did."
Inside the Ironclad
Ironhide turned his ship around to Dark-Moon. "Ironhide to stealth teams. Status report."
"Having a little trouble reaching the objective." Arcee replied.
Dark-Moon
Bumblebee, Cliffjumper, and Arcee were in a corridor. They were in the middle of a firefight against some Vehicons. Thanks to the Cosmotector, Bumblebee was able to get clear shots at them. The rapid fire from the neutron assault rifle made it difficult for Cliffjumper to hold back on the recoil, but he managed to find cover behind some crates. Arcee was with him. She fire the Energon sniper pistol. She managed to get a headshot on the farthest Vehicon.
"Security is tighter than anticipated, sir." Arcee said. A blast shot nearly hit her.
"Hope the Pokemon are doing a better job than us." Cliffjumper said.
Meanwhile in another corridor, the Pokemon were doing great. Abomasnow froze most of the Vehicons by using Blizzard. Tauros rammed through them and shattered them into millions of pieces. Ambipom used Swift, decapitating a few Vehicons. Magneone used its electric powers to over charge them and caused them to blow out. Blaziken and Poliwrath were using their Fighting-type side to out maneuver the Vehicons for some close combat. Tauros then turned his attention on ramming the corridor door to open.
Blaziken used a high-jump kick. Smashing a Vehicon's head. He landed on the ground. He pressed the com-link on his wrist. "Blaziken!"
Inside the Ironclad
"I'm taking that as a good thing. Keep them occupied." Ironhide said. He landed the ship near Dark-Moon's energy core room.
He exited the ship. Which it went on autopilot and took off. He charged to the window. He jumped and fired his path rifle. He got a lucky shot on a Vehicon.
He landed in the room. He gunned two Vehicons. The third and final one retreated to signal the alarm. The Vehicon fired. Ironhide ducked and shot him on the back.
He aimed to destroy the power core. ZAP! A blast shot cause him to lose grip of the path rifle. The weapon slid across the room, completely fried.
"Ironhide."
He looked up to see who's voice that belonged to. It was obvious as Megatron jumped down to his level.
"Allow me to venture. You intend to disarm my fusion cannons by disabling their power core."
"Indeed, Megatron." Ironhide drew out his blaster cannons. "And you are standing in my way. Ragh!" He charged, guns-a-blazing toward Megatron.
Meanwhile outside
Shockwave landed on the ground floor. He saw the Wreckers were surrounded by Seekers. They were trying to take them down from the end. He transformed into his Cybertronian tank mode and accelerated. As he was driving he fired his hyperflux cannon.
The blast struck in the middle of the three Wreckers. Knocking them to the ground. The impact also caused them to black out.
Shockwave transformed and slowly walked up to them.
"Your mission was most illogical."
Dark-Moon
The Vehicons ceased fire on the Autobot trio. Cliffjumper looked back to see why. "Guys, look!"
Decepticon reinforcements arrived. cutting off their escape completely.
"Scrap." Arcee said.
Meanwhile, the Pokemon team managed to take down every Vehicon. But now there was a new obstacle in their way. The Pokecons.
Abomasnow used Blizzard again. Blackout countered it with Flamethrower. Melting the snow, but the fire attack didn't stop there. The flames raged on towards Abomasnow and weakened him.
Demolisher quickly charged in and used ThunderPunch on Poliwrath. Then Brick Break on Ambipom. Taking them both down with ease.
Blaziken managed to kick Demolisher against the wall. He was about to use Flamethrower until Mindwipe ghosted through the wall. He used Hypnosis, putting Blaziken to sleep. Blaziken falls to the floor on his back. Mindwipe used Shadow Ball on Magnezone. Demolisher recovered and jumped up high. He used Brick Break once again on Magnezone. Knock it down to the ground.
Tauros continued to ram the door until a shadow stood over him. He looked back to see Bonecrusher. He bellowed and stomped his hoof. He charged as did Bonecrusher. They locked horns and shook their heads violently. Tauros began to push Bonecrusher back. But suddenly, he got his feet in position and lifted Tauros off the ground then slammed him back down. He used Heavy Slam to be sure that Tauros won't get up.
Abomasnow was trying to stand firm against the flames. WHACK! Something struck him from the back. He collapse to the ground. He rolls over to see who attacked him. His attacker was Dead End. He must have sneaked up behind Abomasnow and used Slash.
Up in the power core room, Ironhide fired his cannon, but Megatron grabbed his arm and made him miss. Megatron aimed his fusion cannon at Ironhide. He did the same as Megatron did.
Megatron elbowed Ironhide on the back the on the chest plating. Knocking him to the ground. He aimed again. Ironhide quickly kicked him on the leg. Allowing him to get up and kick Megatron on the chest plating. Megatron grabbed both his arms and then head-butted him.
Ironhide skidded across the room and hit the wall behind him. He ducked from Megatron's shot. He quickly recovers and fired twice on Megatron's shoulder. Megatron charged and him and rammed him against the wall.
He pinned Ironhide against the wall and slammed his fist hard to his face. He released him as he collapsed to the floor.
"Such heroic Nonsense, Ironhide. You are no Optimus Prime." Megatron taunted.
Military/Air Base
Jenny and the aerial assault team were still waiting.
"What in the name of Arceus is taking them so long?" Jenny asked herself.
Dark-Moon
Up at Megatron's throne room platform was Starscream, Blackout, Mindwipe and a four Vehicons. Soon Megatron appeared, dragging a weakened Ironhide. He roughly tossed him to the floor. Reawakening him.
"All invaders have been taken captive, Master." Starscream said. Walking by Megatron's left side. "And no sign of Optimus Prime."
"So tell me, Commander, where might your leader be?" Megatron asked Ironhide.
In Optimus' Mind
Alpha Trion reached his arm out. "Take my hand, Optimus, and join me. Join with the AllSpark."
Optimus thought about the choice for a moment. He moved a little closer to Alpha Trion and reached his arm out. He paused and looked at Trion in the optics.
The underground cavern
"Optimus! NO!" Smokescreen shouted.
Optimus' optics powered of. Soon his whole body shutting down can be heard. His chest plating opened revealing the Matrix of Leadership within him.
"This isn't how the story's supposed to end. Is it, Smokescreen?" Iris asked. Walking by Optimus' head.
Smokescreen looked back at the Forge. "No, it's not. And it's not gonna end this way either."
"What?"
He dragged the Forge and placed it on Optimus hand. It reacted to the Matrix and unleashed an unknown wave of energy and a bright light. Followed with the rock containing Deoxys cracked open once again.
Dark-Moon
Ironhide struggled to get up. Megatron walked behind him. "I will not ask again!"
He looked back at the dark lord. "If I knew. I wouldn't tell you."
"Very well." Megatron unsheathed his sword. He looked at Starscream. "Execute our prisoners and fire each cannon to the nearest metropolis within its sights! It is time to show the known universe that this planet belongs to Megatron."
Starscream moved a few steps forward as he noticed two faint figures on the horizon. "Master, something's coming."
Megatron looked at the direction Starscream was looking. Something was indeed coming.
Meanwhile down below, Shockwave, Demolisher, Bonecrusher, Dead End, and a few Vehicons held the Wreckers and the Pokemon prisoners. Soon two other Vehicons were taking Arcee, Cliffjumper and Bumblebee to where the others were
*Hey! What's that!* Bumblebee pointed out to the same figure. Everyone looked at it.
The figures were flying recklessly fast.
"The Predacon?" Megatron asked.
"Hmmm, not beasty enough and I don't think it was a Combiner." Starscream replied. Slowly moving back.
Megatron moved a forward a little to get a better view. Blackout and Mindwipe followed. Ironhide tried to get up to see.
The Harbinger
"How is that possible?" Ratchet said, looking at the life signal monitor.
"What?" Ash asked looking back.
"An Autobot signal, but it's... airborne!"
Dark-Moon
"I know those color schemes." Starscream said, getting a better picture on the figures.
Megatron's optics widen as he recognized who one of the figure was. It was Optimus Prime, a more built and flyable version. Blackout and Mindwipe's eyes widen as they recognized the other. It was Deoxys, in Speed Forme. They were flying at them head on.
"Wait, he can't fly! Can he?" Starscream was puzzled on Optimus' new ability.
Optimus landed and quickly unleashed a barged beating on Megatron. He came at him with two punches, followed by a left uppercut, then delivered a final good blow on him launching him to his throne chair.
Mindwipe was about to use Dark Pulse, But Deoxys used Psycho Boost with all its strength. Sending him to where Megatron crashed. Blackout attacked with Flamethrower. Although it was showing little effect. Deoxys used Counter and since Blackout was using equal force, it done more harm to him than Deoxys. Then it used Zen Headbutt on him.
The Vehicons fired at Optimus. He pulled out a minigun and killed them one by one. While Starcream was distracted, Ironhide stood up. Starscream looked back to see his fist throwing him an uppercut. Knocking him out.
Optimus noticed Ironhide. He deactivated his face guard. "Commander?"
"Sir, you are looking..." Ironhide examined him. "Robust. It is paramount we disable the fusion cannons below."
"Understood." He activated his face guard again. He took off in the air. Flying his way to the cannons. Deoxys followed.
Ironhide pressed his com-link. "All units..."
The Harbinger
"... Optimus Prime has returned. And he has the red and blue creature accompanying him." Ironhide said.
Everyone's eyes widen in shock. They cheered.
Military/Air Base
Agent Jenny was also receiving the transmission. "I repeat; Prime is alive and quiet alive."
"Yes!" Jenny shouted.
Dark-Moon
The Autobots and the Pokemon noticed that the Decepticon and the Pokecons were busy looking up at the tower. Bulkhead signaled them to strike.
Wheeljack silently unsheathed his sword and struck down the guard next to him. Bulkhead pulled out his wrecking ball and whacked the guard next to him. Arcee, Cliffjumper, and Bumblebee took care of the reinforcements. Ultra Magnus took Shockwave head on.
Blaziken and Abomasnow attacked Demolisher. Magnezone zapped Dead End with Thunderbolt. Tauros locked his horns on Bonecrusher's legs and tripped him. Poilwrath and Ambipom attacked the down Pokecon.
Shockwave took a few his from Magnus until he smacked him with his cannon. Magnezone tried to engage, but he whacked him away. Soon the other Wreckers engaged him.
Megatron bursted through the ruble of his crumbled throne. Starscream, Blackout, and Mindwipe recovered as well. They noticed Ironhide jump off the platform. Turns out the Ironclad was right below him. As soon as he landed on it, the ship's autopilot took off.
Megatron went to the edge of the platform he spotted Optimus and Deoxys flying towards the cannons. He furiously roared in anger. He jumped off and transformed. He flew after Prime. They flew in front of the first fusion cannon. Optimus aimed the minigun at it until he heard Megatron's voice. "OOPPPPPTIMUUSSSSSSS!" He came at them guns-a-blazing. Deoxys used Reflect to shield Optimus. Two luck shots blasted them away from the fusion cannon.
They regained flight control and took off. With Megatron hot on their tail. Flying around and through the citadel. Optimus turned back and fired his minigun at Megatron. Causing him to bank away. They pursued him.
Starscream went to the edge of the platform. He saw Megatron being chased by Optimus. "Commander, a cluster of enemy signals incoming!" A soldier reported.
He growled. "Humans and their Pokemon pets! Activate the fusion cannons!"
In the control room the Decepticons were preparing the cannons. Setting on of the cannons to take down Jenny and her squadrons.
In fact they were getting closer to the citadel. "Sky Strikers, await my command." Jenny said.
Megatron managed to maneuver himself behind their six. He went to maximum overdrive as did Megatron. Unexpectedly, Deoxys shifted into Defense Forme, turned around and slammed its fist on Megatron. Optimus grabbed him by the flight wings and spun around. "Megatron..., be gone!" Thanks to the spinning momentum as he threw Megatron. He was thrown directly into the fusion cannon's power core. The energy surge caused him to transform back to his robotic form. The reaction cause the fusion cannons to shut down. They noticed the Sky Strikers were inbound, so they took off.
Inside the Ironclad
Ironhide managed to get inside his ship. He too picked up the Sky Strikers. "Autobots, Pokebots, clear the area!" (#4)
Dark-Moon
Bumblebee transformed. Poliwrath and Ambipom hopped in. He drove off. Arcee and Cliffjumper transformed and followed. Along with Magnezone.
Shockwave knocked the Wreckers away from him. Unfortunately, that left him open to Cliffjumper as he ran him over. Before he can fire at them, Magnus jumped on his back.
Magnus transformed into his HEMTT truck mode. The rest of the Pokemon hopped on him as he drove off.
"Lets do this." Jenny said. She and the other pilots fired their rockets. The Altaria used Hyper Beam. They broke off when as the rockets and the Hyper Beams struck Dark-Moon.
Shockwave and the Pokecons noticed the towers destruction. "Soundwave, we required a Ground Bridge." He said. The vortex appeared behind him. Him and the Pokecons walked through it. It disappeared before the debris fell on them.
In the power room, Megatron was barely recovering. Starscrea, Mindwipe, and Blackout entered the room. Starscream thought over this temptation. Instead he said; "Transport Lord Megatron to the Nemesis."
Blackout and Mindwipe got Megatron on his feet. "What are you doing? Noo!" Megatron struggled to break free. "WE WILL NOT RETREAT!"
They made their way to the Nemesis. Starscream stepped aside for them. "This battle is lost, my Liege. We must retreat if we have any hope of winning the war."
Route 3
Smokescreen was driving up the path way with Iris riding Dragonite right behind him. Dragonite landed to watch an amzing sight. Smokescreen transformed and stopped near them to see Dark-Moon crumbling down. "Awww, we missed it!"
"You are starting to act like a kid all over again." Iris said.
Dark-Moon
The Nemesis pulled away from the dock bridge before that to gave way and tumbled like the rest of the tower. As the last of Dark-Moon impacted the ground it created a heavy cloud of dirt smoke.
Military/Air Base
The Autobots and everyone else stood inside a warehouse. Agent Jenny stood on a catwalk to give the Autobots a thank you speech. "On behalf of the politicians of the world, I thank you all for your selfless heroism in defense for this planet. I'm only sorry that the rest of the world can't yet know of your undying dedication. Because I, for one, owe you my life, my liberty and my future." She stood up straight and saluted them. Optimus nodded his head in response.
"Sir." Ironhide said. Optimus looked at him. "I am honored relinquish command of the Autobots to you."
"Welcome to Earth, Ironhide and to Team Prime."
Ironhide looked to his left to see Misty approaching Optmius. "Okay, if May hasn't said it by now, then I have to saw it; Optimus 2.0 is radical! Imagine what the Forge can do for your body, Ratchet." She looked at him.
Ratchet scoffed. "Well." He turned back to look at the Forge of Solus Prime. "Is it true the Forge has been drained of its power?" He looked at Smokescreen. "Then any hope of rebuilding the Omega Lock has truly been lost."
"I... did what I felt was right."
"And your instincts have again proven to be quite sound."
Smokescreen looked at Ratchet and smiled at his comment. They joined the others. Who awed in Optimus Prime and Deoxys' return.
(#1) - Several Pokemon wiki sites will point out how the different Regions, except for Unova, have the same geology as Japan.
(#2) - I can't believe I'm saying this, but Starscream might be right.
(#3) - Please refer to look back on the pokemon list on chapter one if you forgot.
(#4) - That's the name for the Pokemon that are on the Autobot team.
