Optimus smiled at the information and he stands up and informs his Autobots. "Get ready teams. It's time to roll out"
#_;PMIRAGE POV;P_#
After reporting to the Boss Bot and that's when I knew they were going ahead to start their plan. So, I gotta get to Cosma as soon as possible. Having a steady walk towards the Holding Cells, I notice there was yelling in one of the courters. I was only to make out was. "He's-Not-Able-the-place! You-leader!" Then there was a huge clang on the metal surface that made me jump a bit. Most likely Screamer was bad mouthing at the Mega-trash. I chuckle lightly because he was always a stubborn aft. But I continue my way towards Cosma.
*_)TIME SKIP(_*
Finally reaching Cosma's cell, I type in the code and the door slides open. Her helm quickly shoots up and glances at me. I walk in letting the doors slide behind me. She shoots me a smile, "So how long is going to take?"
"Well, with their motivation to find you, it should be around 3 Earth hours with no problems with the plan. But, we never know huh?" I shrugged while walking towards her and sitting down next to her.
"Mirage, you do know that your optics are turning red right?" She spoke with calmness and softness.
"They are huh? Well, I just gotta take the Autobot Oath again." I said to her.
"And your armor is also turning black and a dark yellow…" She spoke with uneasiness. I look at my arms and she was right. My primary color white was turning to a black coloring while my secondary color blue was turning to dark yellow. I looked up to her and worry was in her optics.
"Hey, hey, I'm going to be alright. There is nothing to worry about." I say to her with reassurance in my voice, and to prove that I let a smiled a small smile to show her I'll be fine. "Mirage, do you promise?" She asks. I nod at her, "I promise, Cos. I promise."
With team Alpha 1…
They were the first ones to board the Nemesis so that means, they have to distract the Decepticons. They had to create some mayhem. Warpath transforms into his tank mode and yells, "WAM-BAM! Time to blow up things!" With that he moves forward with his team blasters at hand to fire at anything in sight. Warpath fires his first round at the other side of the hallway causing a huge explosion with a 10 yard radius smoke. He laughs and continues to fire his rounds at each side of the Nemesis as he went down to the Hallway.
With team Alpha 2…
They hear all explosions and laughter down the hallway. No doubt that was Warpath. Jazz quickly leads his team to the Holding Cells but also taking their time because there could be a Decepticon running towards the Main Bay to see what exactly what was going on. But, Alpha 1 team was the best Front Liners ever so there was no doubt that they were going to unleash some pit on the Decepticons. After all, they do have Ironhide and Warpath on their team. They stepped lightly as they continue their way towards the Holding Cells, ready for anything that was going to come in their way.
With team Omega 2…
They have to keep up the Distraction team in order to make sure they had no casualties. The volunteers keep up with them as well; after all they are the repair team. Running down the Hallway which Warpath and his team went down, you can clearly tell that that they went down here because of the holes in the Nemesis and debris was everywhere. But thankfully, it wasn't filled up with salt water.
With Megatron…
"What in the name of Primus was THAT?!" He demanded as he heard an explosion and it shook the Nemesis before him. "Answer: Autobot attack." Soundwave quickly replies. The Warlord growls and he coms in every Front Liner he needed in the Main Bay. That included the new leader of the Front Liners, Mirage.
::ALL FRONT LINERS, REPORT TO MAIN BAY IMMEDIATALY!:: Most of them answered but, not Mirage. He knew something was up. "Soundwave, keep me posted, I'm going to visit someone." He commands and with that, he charges through the Hallway which Warpath and his team was coming through.
&_*MIRAGE POV*_&
::ALL FRONT LINERS, REPORT TO MAIN BAY IMMEDIATALY!:: Megatron practically yelled in my audios.
I don't answer him because I'm not his loyal warrior he wants me to be. More explosions shook the Nemesis; there is only one bot I know who can do that. Warpath. A smirk goes on my face as they were doing their job. "Mirage, is this part of the plan?" Cosma asks me. "It is. Some fun they're having right now huh?" I smiled up at her. All I got was a nod from her.
Team Alpha 1…
"BAM-BOOM! WA-HEEEEE!" Warpath yelled in excitement as he continued to fire at the sides of the Nemesis.
The rest of his team could barely hear themselves think because of his shouts and his tank fire. But they couldn't help but chuckle at his excitement. But, they had to stick to the plan. The Terror Twins were riding the sides of Warpath's tank mode, Ironhide on the back while the rest of the team surrounded the tank pointing their blasters pointed forwards. Waiting for any Decepticons to charge at them. But, they were only confronted with the Warlord himself. Warpath smirked in his alt mode and aimed his cannon at the Warlord and before he knew it, he fired at the charging Decepticon.
The Warlord managed to roll out of the way; he crouched down as he fired his own cannon at the tank. The Terror twins fired their weapons at the incoming shot from Megatron causing that to explode near them. They shield themselves from the explosion. The smoke was still there and that's when Smokescreen had an idea.
::Hey guys, I can find my way through the smoke, want me to show you guys the way towards Megatron?:: He asked in their private com-link.
::I wanna BAM-WAM that guy!:: Warpath quickly replies.
::Alright then, follow me, War!::
With that Smokescreen transformed and drove into the smoke, Warpath followed in from behind. Smokescreen was able to find the Warlord pretty easy, he does a 360 turn while he transforms and aims his weapon at the Warlord. Megatron was against the wall clutching on his arm which was leaking some energon…Or that's what Smokescreen thought. Megatron quickly aims his fusion cannon at Smokescreen and fires; Smokescreen was able to dodge out of the way but was then acquainted with Megatrons fist to his face. This causes Smokescreen to be knocked off his pedes and right on his aft.
Luckily before Mega-trash could do anymore damage, he gets a shot from behind. He lets out a painful scream as he was sent flying over Smokescreen. Out of the smoke emerged Warpath and the rest of the team. "BOOM-BOOM! BAMMY! THAT'S WHAT YA GET!" Warpath yelled.
The Terror twins quickly get off of Warpath and help with Smokescreen. Tracks, Warpath, Ironhide covered them as they see more Decepticons heading their way. The Hallway was filled up with Decepticon and Autobot battle cries, with thundering pedes against the metal surface.
(O*{_...COSMA POV…_}*O)
I can't but feel worried about Mirage, what if the Decepticon symbol could actually change him? His armor is now more of the Decepticon colors. But, that is also when I heard the doors sliding open; I take my gaze off of Mirage and look to the door. A huge smile widens on my face as I see the sight before me and Mirage. Jazz. "Jazz, I'm so happy right now that I could just die." I say.
"Don't die on me!" He says quickly and runs towards me.
"Wait, wait! It was just an expression! I'm just over joyed that I get to see you again." I explain to him.
"Oh…Don't do that again…That almost gave me a spark attack." He sighed in relief.
Child, you must aid them to save Mirage. He may be lost to the Decepticons cause forever.
Alright then!
"Hey, see that terminal over there? I think it controls my shackles, disable it and it'll set me free." I used my head to point at that terminal. Jazz follows and quickly runs at the terminal to disable my shackles. When he was doing that, more bots I knew was in here. Blaster, Bee, Hound, and Hoist.
"Hey guys." I greeted them. "Cosma!" They all said at once and that just makes me want to widen my smile even more.
"Mirage…What is happening to you?" Hound asks his friend with concern. I knew he knew that Mirage wasn't a traitor.
"Well, I had to get the Decepticon symbol in replace of my Autobot so I can prove that I am a true Decepticon. I had to do it in order to help ya'll." Mirage explains, now he has more of a deeper voice…That Decepticon symbol is changing him.
"Mirage, your voice is deeper than it should be." I inform him and with that, he looked up at me.
All I saw was that he has now red optics. My optics widen. "It's not changing who I am, Cos. You have to remember that." He spoke softly for me so I could hear reassurance in his new voice.
My head bobs up and down slowly at him. The shackles release me and I drop down. I rolled my wrists, shoulders anything that needed to be stretched I did so. Mirage stands up and smiled a small smile at me. I returned it. "Alright, lets move." Hound says to all of us and with that, we run or for me rolled out of there.
Alpha 1 team…
They fought like they never did before, using all of their skills in combat, bravery that guided them through and each of every attack they had. Ironhide gave a solid, strong punch to the gut of Thundercracker, causing him to become limp and gasp for air in his vents. Ironhide then grabbed him by the arms, using his strength in his arms; he spins around in a circle hanging on to Thundercracker. He releases Thundercracker causing him to hit HARD against the metal wall, it even caused a dent.
The Terror twins were fighting against the Decepticon twins known as Makeshift and Crescentshifter. Back to back, servos ready to punch. Crescentshifter was the first one to attack at Sunstreaker. Which he was ready for the attack. Crescentshifter threw a punch at Sunny but, Sunny quickly dodges out of the way and catches Crescentshifter's arm and throws him over him. This causes a dent in the metal ground below. Makeshift attempts to tackle Sunny but, Sideswipe was too quick, he tackled him instead and pins him down. He clenches his servos and gives his fists into Makeshift face. Energon was now coming down his mouth as Sideswipe stopped seeing that he had no chance to come back up and strike him. He stands up and they go find another foe to fight with.
Tracks was blocking attacks from Thrust as he continues to strike him. But, Tracks saw an opportunity in his foot placement; he lets a smirk go on his face. When Thrust swings another punch, Tracks ducked and spins in one place with his leg extended, causing Thrust to be knocked on his back. Tracks stood up and slams his pede on Thrusts chassis; he lets out a shriek of pain as Tracks dug his pede harder. For my friends, you ugly piece of aft. Tracks thought, he knocks out Thrust with his pede and sees a scratch on his frame. Groaning and complaining aloud, "Great. My frame is scratched!"
He decides to take his wrath on another Decepticon. Warpath was fighting with the other cone head Ramjet. They both blocked each other's attacks and dodged them as well. Seeing there was no end to this, Warpath readies his cannon at his chest. Warpath shoves Ramjet away so he could get a good aim at his foe. Seeing a perfect chance, he fires Ramjet directly on the chest. He screams out in pain as he flew backwards hitting some other Decepticons in the process. "WAMMY-BAMMY! WOO-HOO!" Warpath yelled again and fights once more only with someone else.
With the Repair Team…
Ratchet see's Smokescreen laid against and he didn't looked too good because he had small leaking from his helm. Ratchet quickly goes over to him and kneels down. He takes out his welder; he turns his helm towards Optimus saying to him, "I need to be covered." Optimus nodded and covers the medic as he does his work on Smokescreen. Ratchet welds the part where Smokescreen was leaking energon; Smokescreen did his best to stay still while the medic was doing his job. Ratchet was rather quick fixing up Smokescreen, letting him know he was down Ratchet gave a small pat on the shoulder of Smokescreen's. Smokescreen quickly nodded and was out fighting again.
::Prime!:: Jazz's voice was in the Optimus's Audios.
::Did you recover Cosma?::
::Sure did!::
::I will inform Prowl and the others immediately. Go ahead and meet with them there.::
::Sure thing. Jazz out.:: Optimus informs everyone and he got back mostly relief replies. Except Warpath, he was just yelling, 'WAMMY! WOOHOO! WOOHOO! BAM! BAM!' Optimus knew he would just yell that instead of 'Thank Primus.'
Team Omega 1…
Prowl waited to hear something of Prime or the others, but he was surprised that there were no seekers came out to attack them. He lets out a humming sound as he observes the Nemesis closely. Most likely that the Seekers are too busy with Team Alpha 1. But, it does not explain where is the rest of the Decepticons. Would they be too occupied with the team? If that was true, they are doing a spectacular job with distracting them. Lets just hope that Omega 2 is keeping them online and well. He was soon interrupted in his thoughts by someone very familiar. ::Prime to Prowl, do you read?::
::I read you Prime. What is it?::
::Jazz and his team are heading out right now with Cosma. Prepare the Airalbots as soon as you can. I told the others to fall back.::
::Understood. Prowl out.::
He cuts off the com to Optimus and turns his attention to his team. "Optimus has just informed me that we need to get the Airalbots for extraction. We have got what we wanted." He explains.
"Wait; aren't we apposed to have a final battle or something?" Bluestreak asked him.
"That will come another time, but quickly everyone. Prepare the Airalbots." With that everyone got ready for the Airalbots to get them out of there.
Jazz's Team…
They have all reached the hole which they had came in at, quickly diving in they all swim to shore. Reaching there, they ran towards the Omega 1 team. "Cosma! Welcome back!" Beachcomber was the first to see her.
Cosma lets out a smile at him, "Thanks Beach, anyway, how're we going home?"
"The one and only Airalbots but we have to wait for the rest of the team to get here. That could mean us getting Decepticons." He explains to her.
"Ah, well, I'm ready for them." Cosma said with a confidence smile.
"No, we need to get you better energon before you fight." Prowl interjected into their conversation.
"But, Prowlie!" Cosma whined.
"D-Did you just call me Prowlie?" Prowl was completely shocked.
"Yes I did. You're going to have to get used to it." She smirked at him. He deadpanned her, not getting any more responses. But he did went to go to check on the Airalbots to see if they were all set to go.
"Man, you're no fun…" Cosma mutters before she was wrapped in strong arms and was lifted off the ground. That was done by the one and only Jazz. They haven't really done any hugging since they rescued her but this seemed like the perfect moment. Cosma immediately hugs him back letting her arms wrap around his neck. He sets her down and just smiles at her. He knew that this was no time for any kissing to be involved.
With the rest of the Team…
They were coming closer to the hole which they had came in at, Warpath and Ironhide covered them as they all dived in the water. Warpath continued to fires his rounds as he sees even more Decepticons closing in on them. He then decides, he was going to stay there, to prevent any Decepticons to fire at his friends. He stood his ground as he took out his blaster in his right servo and his main cannon of his chest was ready to fire.
Ironhide saw this and tugs on his arm, "Warpath, c'mon ye slagger!"
"I'm going to WAM BAM them. So they don't get you!" He says to his friend.
Ironhide widens his optics at Warpath. He was going to give up his life just to save them all. "No, yer not! C'mon Warpath!" He tugged his arm again but he just stayed put. Ironhide didn't understand his motives, he didn't owe them anything!
"Why Warpath?" He asks.
"Because, you need your niece, Ironhide. Besides, I had a great life, no go before I do my wamming!" With that, Ironhide gave him a final nod, knowing that was his last time he was going to see that crazy front liner. He dives in the water, feeling bad that he was leaving his friend behind. Knowing his friend was gone, Warpath stood ready for anything to come at him; he was going to make his final stand here and now.
…*_*WARPATH POV*_*…
I was about to do some wamming and pamming all the way to those Decepticreeps! And I knew I was going to have fun doing so because, I always wanted to make a final stand against these slaggers. They deserve a good fight. And I was going to give it to them.
Outside with the rest of the teams. Also, COSMA POV
Where was Warpath? And my Uncle Ironhide? This starts to make me worry, did they stay behind? Did they? I shook my head and just when I was thinking about that I see my Uncle coming out of the water, just by instinct I roll towards him and surprised him by diving him into a huge hug. He wraps his own strong pair of arms around me giving a tight squeeze before letting me go. I smiled at him, "Hi, Uncle 'Hide."
"Good to see ye again, kid." He smiled back at me. "Where's Warpath?" His happy expression drops and turns into a sad one. I never had seen him upset. All was silence between us.
"Uncle?" I started again, worry was in my voice.
"He stayed behind…" He finally says, but it was soft.
I knew that he and him had to be good friends; they had known each other for a very long time. That's what he told me. I once again hug him to make him a bit better. I let him go, when I see he was looking down, I decide to put my finger under his chin to look up at me. We lock optics. "He's going to a better place, Uncle. Don't mourn right now…We'll celebrate his sacrifice for us. I promise you that." I smiled at him; I want to light up the mood. With that, he nods at me, being more brighter. We get a com from Optimus telling us it was time to go and with that, we rode in Jetstorm and we went home.
With Megatron…
The Warlord growled at the sight, his power source was already away! And most of his troops were damaged by the Autobot named Warpath, but the Warlord was able to make him fall down to his knees and say I surrender. Warpath was now being brought to the Warlord as we speak. Crescentshifter and Makeshift dragged the heavy front liner as trails of energon were left behind. Warpath looked beaten, scrapped, (Like Cliffjumper in TFP) you could tell he was in pain. But, he was barely online, so his optics was flickering, thanking Primus that he was EVEN still functioning.
"Wam…Bam…Heh…That's what…" Warpath coughed before he could continue. Megatron just shook his helm at the front liner, "Did you honestly think that you can live now? Even those are your last words." Warpath widens his optics before him. Megatron aimed his fusion cannon at Warpath's helm, firing it up. Fires. This causes the Front Liner's helm to be sent flying across the room, energon following.
Sorry that I ended with Warpath's death...But, I hope I made some of you laughed when he was saying, WAM BAM and all that stuff.
Anyway, I need help trying to figure out a name for that Plot Bunny I said on the last Chapter! Leave it in the Reviews Pretty Please! :D
Sadly, next Chapter will be the end of this story, but I will make a Epilogue for a little sneak peak for the next story!
Anway!
Thanks for Reading!
Much Appreciated!
Bai Bai!
