PART 3

The Autobots drove all around the city in hopes of finding Blinx before the Cons could, so far they've checked the South and West parts of the city, but there was still no sign of her. When they searched the East parts, they came across Sari who was at the door of a port-a-potty, talking to it. Either she had lost her mind or that's were Blinx was.

"Thank god you guys are here, I've been trying to get Blinx to come out, but she's refusing to do so." The teen told them.

The bots retook their regular forms and approached the port-a-potty.

"Blinx? Are you in there?" Bumblebee asked the plastic outhouse.

"What're you stupid? Of course I'm in here, and I'm not coming out." Blinx replied rudely.

"Come on, Blinx." Bulkhead pleaded.

"No."

"Blinx, please, we just want to talk." Optimus said.

"Unless Douchebag McAsshole is with you, then screw off!"

"Who's she talking about?" Sentinel stupidly questioned.

"You no doubt." Prowl replied.

"Hey!"

Ultra Magnus then turned to the arrogant Prime with a stone cold glare that scared him slightly.

"Sentinel Prime, I suggest you stay out of this conversation."

"But sir"

The glare grew deeper, prompting Sentinel to slink back a good distance. The Autobot commander looked over at the other bots who were still trying to get Blinx to come out of the port-a-potty, but to no avail. Optimus was the only one doing nothing, he was uncertain about what to do. If Blinx wouldn't come out for anyone, what could he say that would?

But he knew that being a leader meant saying the right things even if he doubted them, the Prime then approached the port-a-potty and knelt down by the door.

"Blinx, it's me. I know you're upset right now because of what happened today, but you shouldn't let things like this get to you, even if you're annoyed by them. To be fair, all of us here do find Sentinel to be a little bit of a glitch head, but that's just his personality and we have to deal with it.

But what I've learned since my days at the academy is something he'll never learn, and that is to respect others. My team mates and I respect you because you're a good friend and Sari respects you because she looks up to you as a sister, and I'm sure others respect you because you're a kind and caring person who speaks her mind, and I'm sure no one would ever trade you for any other friend."

"Words from an Autobot, really makes me want to purge my tanks." A sinister voice said.

Everyone turned sharply and found themselves facing none other than Barricade and Frenzy.

"I knew if we followed you Autobots, you'd lead us to the human." Barricade said.

"Yeah, followed, followed!" Frenzy shouted.

"Barricade and Frenzy, by order of the Elite Guard, you are under arrest!" Ultra Magnus said.

"(sinister laugh) Typical Autobots, you really make me laugh." Barricade said in a sinister way.

"Why are you laughing? If you haven't noticed, you're outnumbered! You two must really be stupid!" Bumblebee said.

"Watch what you say, Bumblebee. Remember, these Decepticons are crafty and unpredictable, there's no telling what sort of tricks they have for us." Prowl told him.

"You're wise to warn him, Autobot, we're quite dangerous."

Barricade then bunched up his fists, making sharp spikes pop out of them. Rocket launcher canons popped out from Frenzy's shoulders, they were about 3 times his size.

"Come and get us, goody-goody bots! I dare you! I dare you!" Frenzy screamed.

"With pleasure!" Bulkhead yelled.

He turned his right hand into a wrecking ball and swung it at them, but Barricade caught it in his clawed hands like it was a mere ball. He forcefully tugged it and ripped the cord clean out of the green bot's arm, then threw it back at his head. The other Autobots had now begun to attack the Cons head on.

Frenzy fired rockets everywhere, blowing up building parts and scattering chunks of the pavement. Bumblebee shot his stinger charges at him, but the crazed Con counteracted them with missiles. Prowl and Jazz attacked Barricade with ninja style moves, but he had counterattack moves that put them deep into the pavement.

Sentinel attacked him with his lance and shield, but of course, he was no match for Barricade, and neither was Ratchet. Bumblebee and Bulkhead attacked Frenzy, only to be blown away by his grenade bombs. Optimus and Ultra Magnus were now the only bots up against Barricade, they had to take him down now or the fragment would end up in his claws.

The two bots attacked with their combat moves and weapons left and right, but the Con had counter attacks that were too swift, he took both of them down with his spiked fists and brute strength. Frenzy blasted open the port-a-potty door with grenades and proceeded to go after Blinx. But before he could get to her, he was attacked by Sari, who was now in robot form, and was blown off his feet by her energy orbs.

"Don't you lay your dirty Decepticon hands on my sister." She snarled at him.

"Ok, you got me." Frenzy said.

He got up slowly with his hands over is head in surrender, then shot cables from his underarms, entangling the teen. Now it was his turn to attack, he leapt into the air and did a kangaroo kick attack to her face, then began to stomp her into the pavement. Blinx's eyes widened in horror as she saw the brutal battle that the Cons were winning, her friends and her baby sister were being beaten senseless before her eyes.

The cosmic aura then surrounded her as an unthinkable rage began to rise within her, enough was enough. She stormed out of the port-a-potty and grabbed Frenzy by his neck and threw him at his partner's feet, Barricade looked from his beating the slag out of Optimus and saw the blue haired girl walking towards him, her eyes glowing with anger.

"So, you've finally decided to join the party." The bot sneered.

"Oh I'm joining the party all right, and I'm gonna take you down!" Blinx snarled as she activated her projectors.

"So, your not all organic after all."

"Damn straight and don't you forget it!"

"Enough talk, human! This is your last chance to hand over the fragment."

"No way in hell am I gonna give it to a Decepticon so he can use it for evil purposes!"

"…Then let us finish what we started, right here, right now!"

"Bring it!"

A western style stand down occurred as they stood glaring coldly eye to eye, then all three opponents attacked head on. Barricade threw fist attack moves while Frenzy threw explosives of most sizes, Blinx counteracted with dodges and energy shields, she even attacked with Street Fighter moves. She had been hit couple times, but she hit them back harder. By now the Autobots had regained consciousness and saw the three fighting tooth and nail, bleeding and leaking energon from their wounds.

"Blinx, get away from here! Barricade and Frenzy are too dangerous for you to take on alone, they'll kill you!" Optimus said to her.

"Let me handle this, Prime, I know I can do it! If there's one thing I've learned from being your friend, it's respect. I respect you all for saving my life, and I feel I should return the favor. This was my fight to begin with, and I'm gonna finish it."

"You have great enthusiasm, human, too bad you won't live long to take pride in it." Barricade said to her.

"You die!" Frenzy screeched.

"We'll see about that, Deceptiscum!" Blinx replied.

Another western style stand down took place as great tension grew between them, ready to strike the final blow. Barricade increased the length of his spikes, Frenzy reloaded his launchers, and Blinx formed a sizable ball of cosmic energy in her hand.

They then charged at each other head on and struck each other in one attack, the impact then caused in explosion causing smoke to blanket the entire area. When it cleared, everyone saw the two Cons banged deep into the pavement 2 feet away and Blinx sprawled out on the street. She was the first to move, but neither Barricade or Frenzy moved an inch, Ratchet cautiously went over to them and checked them over.

"Are they…offline?" Bumblebee asked.

"No, they're very much online, the blast from the impact seem to have put them in stasis lock." The medic replied.

"Then they'll have to problem staying quiet for their little ride to the stockade." Sentinel said.

He and Jazz went over and slapped stasis cuffs on the Cons, the ambulance them went over to Blinx to tend to her new injuries. Later, the incarcerated Decepticons were loaded onto the Elite Guard's ship as the rest of the group were outside having a quick meeting.

"Well, Optimus Prime, it seems all we needed to apprehend the Deadly Duo was the help of your human ally, she fought very well." Ultra Magnus said to the red and blue bot.

"Sir, you can't honestly be giving praise to this human, she's a half-bred organic." Sentinel said.

"She may be that, but Miss Blinx has shown respect and loyalty to those close to her and even risked her own life to protect them. She has proven that she has what it takes to be a warrior, not because of her powers, but by how she uses them; something you could learn to respect, Sentinel Prime."

The plow didn't reply to that, he just walked past him and into the ship. Everyone exchanged a salute and remaining Elite Guard officers boarded the ship, it took off and disappeared into the atmosphere.

"I think you should have this back, it belongs to you guys after all." Blinx said to Optimus, offering him the fragment.

"No, given what I've seen this solar cycle, it's in good hands. If the fragment chose you to be its keeper, then I'm not one to argue with its decision." The prime said.

Blinx gave a smile and the bots transformed into vehicle mode to head home, Prowl however wanted to know something before he left.

"Blinx, I have something to ask you. When you described your encounter with the Allspark shard, you said you saw a pair of eyes. What exactly did they look like?"

"They looked like the eyes of an Autobot, only more brighter in blue and pure." The blue haired girl replied.

"That's all I need to know, thanks."

With that, he took off after the others. He was quiet the rest of the way home, in deep thought about what Blinx told him.

"Could it really be? Is what she saw really true? Could she have…really seen him? Could she have actually seen Primus?"

At the ships crash site, Barricade and Frenzy ripped the metal for the wall to patch their wounds. Little did any of the Autobots know that it wasn't really them they arrested, but their android copies that they switched places with while the smoke covered the place.

"Slag it slag it slag it! I can't believe we were beaten down by a mere human!" Frenzy shouted.

He then heard his partner chuckle and turned to see him with a sinister grin on his face.

"Why're you laughing? Aren't you the least bit fumed that our reputation is ruined?"

"On the contrary, I anticipated she would beat us." Barricade said.

"Is that why you had me make those replicas of us?"

"Correct, and they have no idea."

"So what now?"

"We bide our time and conduct some research, once we find out the exact truth, we'll then claim victory for the Decepticons."

"Exact truth about what?"

"In time, Frenzy, …in time."

End?
