Chapter 2: Awakening of the Abaddon Phase 1
One week has pass since the humans first came inside the Nemesis. The 3 first days was difficult for the decepticon to get use to the humans need. They brought a minifridge, food, latrine, create a special call link with their guardian on their cellphone and Shockwave receives his tools to finish his sonar. All the chosen guardian decepticon takes good care of their human, play with them and talk to them...Except Shockwave...It wasn't because he doesn't like the human...It's because he's busy with his work and doesn't really spend time with Hasher except when he asks it and he remembers his existence...So he's being neglectful.
Julia brings her old PS2 in case some wants to play the old game. All the stuff was put in the control room since it is a place where everyone passes and can watch their humans together. The humans were at the control at the time playing videogames. Arielle and Mullen were watching Julia and Hasher in a car race game competition were Julia was clearly beating Hasher. Hasher loses the game and grunt.
"Dammit...I can't beat you in any game!" Complains Hasher.
"She's one of the best gamer of the United States." Says Mullen.
"What's her username she uses on the internet?" Asks Hasher.
"Unbeatenkiller!" Says Mullen.
"...That's more than clear...Let's try it again...I'll beat you one day." Says Hasher. He remembers being playing against her with her username but never know it was her. It is at that time that Soundwave enters in the command room to check up on what the humans were doing. The vehicons present were watching them, but they were also working at the same time.
They continue playing for a while until Hasher gives up.
"Today isn't going to be the day I beat you." Says Hasher.
Julia smiles at him. Mullen takes the TV control and begins zapping in different channel.
"Why do you always chance channel before we have time to comment." Says Arielle who just saw a show she likes.
"I always do that until I find something I like." Says Mullen.
Julia puts her hand on his shoulder and makes Mullen remembers that he's not alone or with her.
"Sorry...Just use to it." Says Mullen.
"-Todays on CBC, 2 giants space rocket has been-" Then Mullen changes the channel.
"Turn it back!" Says Soundwave with Starscream voice.
Mullen did what he was told.
"-It is hard to believe but 2 entire space rockets has been stole. It is unknown who does 2 completes rocket has been stole but it actually happen. The NASA is currently searching for a possible culprit, but it is impossible to be stolen without notice. One of the 2 rockets was malfunctioning and is missing pieces for the reparation. So it is 100% sure the rockets hasn't been activate.-" Says the news on CBC. "You shall know more later on CBC."
Soundwave immediately contacts Megatron who comes fast.
"What is it Soundwave?" Asks Megatron.
Soundwave shows the news on his visor.
"That can only be the autobot." Says Megatron. "Contact the others; we have a mission to prepare."
15 minutes later
Soundwave shows once again the video seen by him to the decepticon present in the control room. He also adds the part missing thanks to internet and the details explaining that it was stolen the night was said by the news reporter. The humans were staying were they are and are listening to them.
"2 rockets stolen and one is malfunctioning." Says Starscream. "I can guess they need 2 of them and shall search for one more at the NASA."
"I reach that conclusion too." Says Megatron.
"But why do they need rockets build for space?" Asks Knock Out. "2 of those primitives' rockets cannot make the autobot ship flies."
"Can it fly?" Asks Arielle.
"No...The autobot ship is too damage for that. They are stuck wherever they have crash." Answers Knock Out like it is evident.
"They don't know that Knock Out." Whispered Breakdown to Knock Out.
"So...What do you want us to do?" Asks Shockwave.
"I can only guess they will act tonight again." Says Megatron. "They need 2 space rockets and they shall steal another one now since one they have stolen is malfunctioning."
"So who's coming with you for the mission?" Asks Starscream.
"Since I'll expect combat, I need you, Shockwave and Knock Out to stay in the ship. Starscream...You shall try figuring out what they next move shall be. Shockwave, you shall try figure out for what they needs spaces rockets. Knock Out, be ready in case we have injured cybertronian." Answers Megatron.
The 3 nods. Knock Out seems happy to be out of the mission and be cover in dust but the autobot actions worries him at the same time.
"Breakdown, Soundwave, Hardshell and 2 other Insecticons plus Steve and one of your aerial squad shall come with me and watch the hangar NASA. We must not let another intact space rockets falls in autobot hands."
Hardshell chooses 2 Insecticons to follow him while Steve choose his aerial squad and they were ready. It wasn't night so they were preparing themselves.
"And what are we going to do?" Asks Hasher.
"You shall stay in the Nemesis tonight...Don't want anything bad happening to you during the mission." Says Megatron.
"Time to warn our parents." Says Hasher.
The 4 humans get out their phone and calls home.
It was harder for Arielle since she is 8 years old but she manages to convince them with Soundwave helps.
Shockwave was walking to his lab when:
"Can I come and help you?" Asks Hasher.
"Hum...Fine...Just don't bother me in my thought." Says Shockwave. He takes Hasher and they move to the lab.
Julia takes her laptop she brings with her and opens it. Mullen watches what she's doing and he guesses she tries finding information about the stolen rockets.
Florida: NASA base
It's been a little while since they bridge closes to the base. Megatron orders his troops to gather position around the base and be ready for anything when the autobots appear. Soundwave was staying near Megatron, while Breakdown and the Vehicons go to the south east and the Insecticons to the south west. They were waiting and nothing appears for now. Soundwave deploys Laserbeak and begins searching for any sigh of the enemy.
Nemesis: Control room
Julia was beginning typing about the NASA site and tries to find out how many space rockets remain in the Florida base. The site doesn't permit the ordinary people to obtain more specific information so she must do it another way. If Soundwave was there he would already have done it, but Megatron needs him by his side. Julia begins hacking the NASA but it is way harder than it looks. Julia smiles at the challenge she shall face very soon and wonder how much long the site resists her.
Nemesis: Shockwave lab
"Hum...Let's see...Why the autobot needs spaces rockets?" Wonders Shockwave out loud. He has put Anders on the computer and orders him to touch nothing. Not wanting to anger Shockwave after accepting to spend time together, Hasher just sits there and obeys him.
"What do you know about them?" Asks Hasher.
"Already!...Well...That's not a bad question...What we know is that the spaceship they use to come here is name the Ark. We didn't see during our encounter many autobots, but they have lots of drones. Those we know have survive the crash are Optimus, Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Arcee, Ratchet and Rodimus...But they must be more survivor...The Ark itself is an evacuation ship but at the same time a war ship so it has lots of weaponry inside that can be use now...Ok...They intention is to use a weapon...There's nothing else they can use it for...It's better that we stop them now." Says Shockwave. "But what weapon can they use...It depends if they have an expert for it."
"Interesting." Says Hasher.
"Alright...Soundwave have managed on Cybertron to obtain a plan of the Ark...So I have to search the entire weapon and guess which one is the best." Says Shockwave.
"I'll let you concentrate." Says Hasher.
"Thanks." Says Shockwave. He sees that really please the human and he realises that he overcasts away the human to much...He doesn't even remember his name. That illogically hurt him but also shows that the human wants and tries to spend time with him but...He's being himself he puts him away. Shockwave decides he shall try being a better guardian and speaks with him more. That is his logical conclusion about the situation.
As for Hasher, he couldn't help but check the computer and the weaponry. He doesn't understand cybertronian words but he hasn't anything to do.
Nemesis: Insecticon room
Arielle was with the Insecticon but she doesn't know what to do. She was brought there by one of them when she asks it. Kickback sees her and he walks closer to her.
"Are you getting bore?" Asks Kickback.
"Yes...The others are helping the decepticon but...I can't." She says.
"It's alright." He then takes her on his servo. He then puts her on his shoulder. "I think we can have some fun together."
"What shall we do?" Asks Arielle.
"No worry...Kickback has a plan." He says a little evilly. He then walks closer to another Insecticons and he whispered something in his audio receptor. The Insecticon reacts and he whispered to another one and it continues that way.
"What did you say?" Asks Arielle.
"You will know when Hardshell shall be back." Says Kickback. "Let me tell you a little story for now."
Florida: NASA base
One hour has pass and they were still no sigh of the autobot. They Steve receive a call from Mullen.
"Mullen? What is it?" Asks Steve. Breakdown looks at him and wonders why the human calls him at such time.
"-Steve?-"
"Yes. That's me!" Says Steve joyfully when he says the good name.
"-My sister has finish hacking the NASA and she found out that only one spaces rocket is still present here...You need to watch the third hangar.-" Says Mullen.
"Thanks for the info. Bye." Says Steve.
"-Have a bad luck.-" Says Mullen.
"Why bad luck?" Asks Steve.
"-Because saying good luck brings problem.-" Says Mullen about the human superstition.
"Alright." Says Steve.
"-Bye!-" Then Mullen hung up.
Steve gives the news to Megatron and knows where to focus now. Soundwave gives Megatron the exact location of the third hangar and Laserbeak flies over it.
"We just have to wait for them to come." Says Megatron.
15 minutes later:
Laserbeak signals Soundwave that he sees something. Soundwave shows the image and Megatron sees the enemy coming to the hangar 3. With the usual drones, Arcee, Bulkhead and Rodimus were present.
"Decepticon...Charge now!" Orders Megatron.
The troops charge from the different position and attack by surprise and the groups collide. The Insecticons and the vehicons attack the drones except Steve who is attack by Arcee. Megatron charges at Rodimus while Arcee begins punching Steve like a punching bag. Breakdown and Soundwave take care of Bulkhead. Megatron wonders why Optimus isn't present and that cost him a punch on his tank.
Arcee punches again Steve at his chassis and his tank. She then jumps over Steve and kick the neck plate of Steve. Steve falls on the ground, faceplate first.
"That's all you can do? Vehicons are all weakling after all." Comments Arcee.
Steve stands up and sees red. He runs at high speed and slide on the ground and kicks Arcee legs. He then rolls to the left when Arcee tries hitting him with the blades. He then do a roll kick at Arcee faceplate and he gets out his weapon and shoots with his laser at Arcee who transform into a motorbike and rolls on Steve faceplate and pass over him before shooting Steve a few times. Steve armor resists the beam but it hurts Steve who turns around and prepares to continue fighting.
Soundwave sees that Steve needs help so he tries passing Bulkhead but so far a drone gets in his way. Breakdown takes his hammer out and tries hitting Bulkhead who blocks it with his wrecking ball. Bulkhead smashes his weapon at Breakdown face. Breakdown takes a few step back confuse. Soundwave takes the chance to attack with his whip and hit Bulkhead exactly were he hits him one week ago before running at Steve help. Bulkhead aims Soundwave with his beam but Breakdown stops him with a hammer blow at the top of Bulkhead head. Breakdown then receives the wrecking ball at his chest and a mark is left on it and he shouts in pain.
Megatron uses his blade to try and kill Rodimus but he dodges it a few times before Megatron slashes Rodimus chestplate. Rodimus counters with his laser katana at the tank of the leader of the decepticon who grunts in pain. Megatron blocks a few attacks before he punches the autobot at his faceplate and he follows by a kick at the tank follow up with a high kick at the faceplate again.
Hiding from the battle, a few drones following Optimus and walks close to the rocket. He then takes out a special object and the rocket disappears in the subspace of the object.
"Autobot, we have what we come from. Roll Out."
Megatron hears the voice and turns around. He sees Optimus and he charges at him. He completely forgets Rodimus who pierce Megatron chestplate.
"URGH!"
"Let him live...He shall be offline later...Personally." Says Optimus.
All the autobots then transforms and escape through a bridge except a few drones giving Optimus the time to escape.
"Nice try Megatron. Next time...Try to be less soft...And smarter." Then Optimus pass the bridge while the rest of the drone keeps fighting. It wasn't long before the battle end.
"Optimus...You may have won this time...But you haven't won the war. What's the casualty?" Asks Megatron.
"One Insecticon has been gravely injured beaten by the drones and 2 vehicons has been offline for the worse." Says one vehicon.
"Lord Megatron! You need to be treated by Knock Out and fast" Says Steve.
"Not before the Insecticon." Says Megatron.
"Understood." Says Steve.
"Thank you Megatron." Says Hardshell.
"Bridge us out." Orders Megatron.
Nemesis: Shockwave lab
Shockwave has been observing the entire weapon for a while and grunt at his incapacities to find the weapon that will be used by the autobot.
Hasher watches it for a while without understanding it until something happens.
"Optimus...We have enough- We can launch it." Says a voice.
Hasher then sees the face of Optimus. Hasher was scare of Optimus. He was scare of Megatron the first time because of his looks but Optimus...His aura was absolutely evil. He was the incarnation of the devil.
...
"Prepare to launch the Abaddon!" Orders Optimus.
"The decepticon won't know what's going to fall on them"
Hasher closes his eyes. He just has it...Another vision that gives him perfect notes in school. Hasher didn't tell it to anyone but he has a special power. He can see the future. He must bring the attention of Shockwave on the Abaddon. He knows he cannot bring it discreetly.
"Shockwave...What's the Abaddon?" Asks Hasher.
"Hum? It's a powerful cannon of the autobots that break our ship, even with the shield on maximum. Why do you ask that?" Says Shockwave. He then looks at the Abaddon cannon and..."I can't believe it...They are going to use the cannon...But they cannot when it's on the ground...It's going to hurt them! They are going to throws it in space!" He says when he realises it.
"You figure it out!" Says Hasher.
"Yeah." Says Shockwave unsure. He then takes Hasher and join Starscream to explain what he figures out.
Control room
Every decepticons has returns to the Nemesis and have been patch up. They all gathered to the Nemesis, but they are too much numerous and the others are in their room and look it in the computer.
"Decepticons...I have a bad news...The autobot have manage to obtain the second spaces rocket and the table turns in their favour. But do not lose hope, they haven't won yet and they still needs more stuff to beat us." Says Megatron.
"Allow me to explain." Says Starscream. "The autobot may have the 2 rockets, but they have no fuel for the rockets to work and the energon isn't compatible. So they are going to search for it and we can stop them now. Shockwave also found out what the autobot have in their mind."
"Yes...They are planning to launch into space the Abaddon cannon to beat us all. We have the average this time since we know what weapon they have...All we need to do is to search the best spot where the Abaddon cannon can be launch in case they manage to obtain the fuel and countermeasures if it's in space." Says Shockwave.
"We shall be ready for tomorrow...But before you recharge...I have a bad news...The Nemesis still have enough fuel for the machinery to work but...The diagnostic of the ship indicated that the reactors have been too damage to work...We are stuck on the ground for a while." Says Megatron.
They then all go recharging, the guardian bring their human in their room.
Insecticon room
Arielle was on the shoulder of Kickback and was watching Hardshell. He looks at the Insecticons who were looking at him cautiously and was getting some distance from Hardshell.
"What is it?" Asks Hardshell.
"We know you are trying to hide it." Says one of the Insecticons.
"Hide what?" Asks Hardshell. "What are you talking about?"
"You have the itching rust on your arf!" Says one of them.
"...The what?" Asks Hardshell.
"You know...Your plate itch you and you want to scratch it...It doesn't matter if your plate itch so much...We don't care if you scratch it." Says one of the Insecticons.
Hardshell understands what's going on.
"KICKBACK!" Screams Hardshell.
"Yes?" Asks Kickback.
"You are the one who spread this rumor right?" Asks Hardshell.
"Well...Yeah!" Says Kickback giggling.
"I'll...I'll punish you for this!" Says Hardshell. He then sees Arielle. "Later."
Arielle laughs at the joke made by Kickback when he explains it and they laugh together before sleeping. Arielle says good night to the Insecticons and they answers back. Kickback puts Arielle on his chest and she fall asleep fast. Kickback looks at her before falling into recharge.
Nemesis: Soundwave room
Soundwave has put Julia on his chest and looks at her when she falls asleep. He was somehow proud of her. She was able to hack into a powerful human system by herself. He knows that he can do it without any problem, but he's a cybertronian and not a simple human. He then falls in recharge with her.
Nemesis: Vehicons quarter
Mullen was looking at Steve who was putting 2 new names on a wall. He has notice it before but he didn't ask what it was for.
"Can...Can you tell me what it serves for?" Asks Mullen pointing the wall.
"It is the name of every Vehicons that perish since the moment we have names...2 have die today and I could have too if Soundwave wasn't there in time...May their spark join the Allspark." Says Steve.
"Can I pray for them?" Asks Mullen.
"Of course." Says Steve.
Mullen then prays the vehicons to rejoin the...Allspark even if he doesn't know what it means.
"It is time to sleep." Says Steve.
"Good night...Everyone." Says Mullen.
"Good night." Says the other vehicons.
Nemesis: Shockwave room
Shockwave was lying on the berth with Hasher on his chestplate so he rest well. Shockwave is looking at him and was asking himself lots of questions that stop him from recharging.
How did you know about the Abaddon? I...I don't understand...You cannot know the autobot has this...You cannot read the Cybertron language...This...This is illogical! This is the first time something illogical happen. There must be logic behind it...Maybe he would have tell me if I have pay more attention to him. But...I should already have to give some attention to you...I was too busy in the lab...You were putting effort to know me while I did nothing...Human...No...Hasher...What is your secret? Who are you?
AC: This is the end of the second chapter.
Yeah. Hasher has the power to see the future. But...Is it his only power?
Know more in the next chapter: Awakening of the Abaddon Phase 2
Will the decepticon stops the autobot this time?
