Transformers Prime : Miami
Chapter 15: The Renegades.
Downtown Miami on a Saturday night was a blistering sight of light and life, Electricity hung in the air as people from all over South Beach converge to dance the night away. Sure enough the environment tonight was a mix of colorful lights and colorful people at the Club Chimera .It was one of the larger and newer clubs in Miami. But like most clubs n Miami it was a front for major gangs, But this club didn't belong to the Jamaicans, the Colombians, Cubans or even the Mexican drug cartel. It was a front for for a gang that was from a place further than any country the other gangs were from, and tonight they hosted the heads of the major gangs n Miami.
The meeting was held in the adjacent building from Club Cimera, inside was a private loft filled with luxuries like statues, expensive rugs and furniture, but what stood out was the place could easily store 10 to 20 cars. Not just any cars but cars that fetched upwards to six figures, The heads of the 8 major gangs in the building were impressed but nowhere in the mood for the show of fancy features.
The heads of the gangs all sat in chairs with their respective siccorios flanking them, The stared at the rough looking individual moved to address the floor, beyond him where 6 other cars and their owners that were either standing by them or sitting on the hood. In the upper balcony overlooking everything was a red Bulgatti Veryon Super Sport and next to it sat a man dressed in all black he had almost pale features and a chiseled look, you could tell by his jet black short cropped hair ,He was all business He only watched as to his right sat a ginger female who was busy typing furiously on her laptop, and to his left was another female with dark skin and black hair that was pulled back in a low ponytail she wore all dark blue leather and stood by a black Suzuki Hayabusa. She stood in cold contemplation of the guests.
"Gentleman," Said a rough looking Hispanic male, He had black hair that was pulled back and a thick black mustache, Various tattoos adorned his muscular arms. "My employer and I would like to welcome you to our humble home!"
He took center stage" We brought you here to bring you in on a bisnuess venture, You see , We have made our claim to Miami, and as evident from last Saturday night we posses the firepower to crush any of or your men. But we aren't about domination, you see we like to give people a chance. Which is what brings me to why we called you here. We will be taking over your operations, you will answer to us and only us. Every transaction you make you will give us a percentage, and In return. "
He looked and grinned " You get to keep living, You see these are our streets now, decide now, we can treat you like our guest or like our bitch!"
"Bullshit mon!" Said the head of the Jamaicans, He was heavily built and by pulling out a 44 magnum proved he was heavily armed. As he stood up the bald Jamaican was joined by his four other lieutenants, who all had their guns drawn on the large Mexican.
"You dink you can come here` and run the place! You dead wrong man!" He yelled.
The Mexican smiled. " I'm not dead wrong, My name is Dead End, and I was hoping there would be someone like you here..." He said as he disappeared and the dark red Koenigsegg Agera R transformed into a large Decepticon, who didn't hesitate to fire his arm rifles on the four Jamacian, who in a blink of an eye were turned to dust.
Commotion and panic filled the room as the 5 other cars transformed into large robots, The other two were Decepticons and the other three were Autobots and they all and their respective symbols scratched out. They all had their guns drawn on the 20 or so crime lords.
Dead End fired two shots into the sealing, "Quiet!" he yelled shutting the room up.
From above Delilah Danzig looked up from her laptop at the commotion and rolled her eyes, unimpressed. She soon went back to her work. As soon as order was restored , the robots transformed back into their car modes, and their holoavatars came back
"Make no mistake " Dead End began " You are either with us, or against us..."
He took one of the 8 gym bags that were laid out behind him and tossed it to the head of the Colombians, " Now to show we aint all bad and as an act of good faith, take this. Its 80% but with heroin and Oxycontin and a little something to give it a blue glow, We call it Glow. You sell this to your customers and it will take them places they ain't never been!"
The head of the Colombian gang pulled out one of the many baggies of a vials of a blue liquid that had a soft blue glow to it
Delilah leaned over and whispered to the holovatar of Sideswipe " You cut Energon with Heroin? You really don't give a shit about them do you!" The cold glance with a slight smirk from Sideswipe was all the answer she needed.
"Gentlemen, you have 72 hours to give us your decision, don't wait till it's too late," Dead End said "Now get the hell out of our house..."
With that the meeting was adjourned and the gangs members gradually but quickly filed out. Murmuring feverishly to one another. Dead End looked back at Sideswipe and nodded his head silently.
Sideswipe turned to Delilah "Your up Superstar."
The former Black Ops soldier got up and disappeared through a door, then Sideswipe turned hi attention to his troops.
He transformed into his robot mode as he saw the rest of his brethren do the same. There eight in all. Eight Cybertronians, who were locked in a no win situation at the Battle of Ord Sama.
Ord Sama was the furthest planet for a large deposit of Energon to be stored, As Energon supplies dwindled, Both sides sent an army to go and claim the rich prize of Energon,
The fighting was fierce, each side not letting any ground be lost. After it became apparent that the battle was going to be long term, Both sides sent in Combiner teams to finish the battle. Day after Day Autobot and Decepticon had casualties, If a single member of a combiner team's spark was snuffed out, they became nothing more than just four warriors, in capable of forming a giant robot.
Soon new weapons had to be deployed , terrible weapons of mass destruction, It eventually cause the orbit of Ord Sama to be knocked out, and sent hurtling toward a black hole. With the planet in near destruction, and cut off from the orders of their superiors , decisions were made and an Alliance was formed.
"My Brothers and Sister in the spark" Sideswipe began,"We are at the dawn of a new age of Cybertron, Here we will form our own path. No longer will we pay heed to the blind dogmatic of either choosing between Autobot or Decepticon, No We together created a Third option, and option of unification.. I asked you all once to take my hand and let me lead you out of the darkness into the light. This day, we throw off our slaves chains and will take this and anything else we damn well please!" He said as the Renegades all raised their arms and shouted.
" I hope Optimus and Megatron cross our path I really do, I want them to see how they failed before we rip their spark out, but first we have a little house cleaning to do here in Miami. Be ready for a fight with Team Elita, You and I will have to make sacrifices..." He said as he thought of his Brother Sunstreaker.
Autobot Base Gamma Two
For some reason, the operations of the Ground bridge , wasn't that hard for Yuri Makarov to grasp. What helped him was the fact that the computers systems the Autobots were using were based of the same type of computers system used by the US and U.S.S.R back in the 60's. Whether they were launching missile or people into space it all used this type of system. He listened as Perceptor explained all the basics for him, How to call a bridge and recall the bridge to another coordinate. Opening and closing and also determining the energy spike ratios of the Bridge to make sure a crash wasn't imminent. Sure he had a missap or two, But The Autobots had a saying , the more lubricant you sweat in training, the less Energon you bleed in battle. Although Perceptor was sure it could be applied to the human somehow.
"So once again you input the coordinates here and wait for the the computer to accept the coordinate and then fire the ground bridge, Once the party has successfully cleared the portal, You give the command release and depress this lever to the up position to close the bridge!" Perceptor instructed to the very attentive Yuri. "Now lets give you a go, shall we? Send me to Team Prime's base n Nevada!"
Yuri nodded "Da...Da...Team Prime's base...first I find coordinate?"
"Ah Ah Ah!" Perceptor said wagging his finger " remember that body switch fiasco? There's a protocol to follow..."
Yuri bopped his head with his palm, He called Team Primes base. Within the first ring Ratchet answered. " We read you Autobot Base gamma two! How can we help?"
"Autobot Gamma Base Two, requesting to open ground bridge to your location!" Yuri said.
"Request granted, come on through." ratchet said as Yuri found the coordinated and pulled down the lever opening the green swirling portal. Perceptor transformed and drove through , he soon reappeared on Ratchet's view screen.
"Jolly good show Yuri!" He congratulated " now "On my way back!"
Yuri smiled as he saw Perceptor come back across the ground bridge, he closed the portal as Perceptor transformed " We showed you comms yesterday , ground portal today, tomorrow we'll put you on the challenging stuff! Diagnostics!"
"Is fun! Yuri said " Like planning a re-entry only I don't have to calculate coordinates using my fingers and toes!"
Perceptor eyed him oddly
"Is old Russian joke..." He said coyly.
"Hey guys!" April said as she slid down the ladder," Yuri your up early!"
"Da ,Peceptor is teaching me how to work the ground bridge controls, I am 'how you say?' Pulling my wagon!" Yuri said standing from his chair to face April.
"I think you mean Pulling your weight, !" April corrected.
"Yes! Is what I said!" He sheepishly grinned.
"Well I have a long day at work, I left you a lunch in your fridge!" she said as she leaned in and gave him a small peck on the cheek. She smiled and got into to Mirage.
"Do the honors , Comrade Markarov!" Perceptor said.
Yuri sat back down and keyed in the ground bridge controls, Mirage sped off through the green portal and not more than a minuet later he called into the base.
"You kinda put us 10 miles away but hey close enough!"
Later in the day as Yuri sat at base enjoying the baked tofu lasagna April had prepared for him, He was growing accustomed to life in the "Future" as he knew it. He was a little disappointed there were no flying cars or jet packs, but a tiny brick like device called an "Ipod" that played music over a small set of speakers were amazing enough for him. He turned the page to his favorite book "war and Peace and he listened to a classical rendition of "Ava Maria"
He head a clump clump clump of an approaching Autobot but continued to read.
"What is that? It's beautiful..." Asked Green Light.
Yuri looked up from his book " Is Ava Maria, you like? Yes?"
Green light closed her optics and lost herself in the music and voice of the woman singing. It brought her a small amount of peace she had so desperately needed these past couple of weeks. During a mission her systems were violently accessed , to the point the temporarily lost the ability to see and was paralyzed. She had never face such an attack before and by an unknown foe, it shook her pretty badly and sent her into a depression. This was one of the first times she had not been in power down mode in a while, as Elita was giving her her space.
Yuri too closed his eyes and was lost in the tune, Green light sat down by him " This music , it makes me feel sad but happy at the same time, What does that mean? She asked.
"It means , you have a warm heart, to be moved by something ,very beautiful!" yuri said" I am curious , you no fly yet?"
Green Light looked down, almost ashamed," I-I I dunno, i'm just a little scared I guess."
"But you are helicopter,No? Helicopters fly fast!" he said as he made a "zhoom!-zhoom" Motion like the was flying.
Green Light chuckled a little " yeah I guess, im just not sure anymore, about anything."
Yuri recognized that look of self doubt, he had seen it many times in his friends and n himself. It was a creeping sense of fear and doubt. Questioning yourself on everything you do, and second guessing yourself. If not taken care of it could be fatal. Luckily Yuri also knew how to deal with it.
He placed his hand on her finger, The metal was sleek and had a slight warmth to it, "Green Light you trust Yuri? ,Yes?"
"Sure..ok " She said
A little while later they were outside of the base and Green Light stood on an old landing pad, The sky was clear and blue, as a soft wind passed through them . But her heart was racing. :i-I dont know about this!"
Yuri zipped up his Cosmonaut flight uniform. He put in one of April's spare bluetooths, a fascinating device that let you hear voices in your head! Or so Yuri thought.
'i-I just never flew someone before!" she said a little apprehensively.
"You wont be flying I will be!, I am pilot, you just let me do the flying!" He said with a big thumbs up. "Trust Yuri, Please?"
Green Light transformed into her helicopter mode and opened the door as Yuri climbed in."Do you hear me Green Light?" He asked over the blue tooth.
"Yes , Loud and clear."
"Just let go and let me handle everything, " Yuri assured.
"Ok." she said as she turned over manual control to Yuri ,She then activated her Holomatter avatar and projected it into the co-pilots seat next to Yuri. He turned to see a young grl about the age of 19, with striking long black hair, she wore a soft pink dress with a dark pink cardigan sweater and black combat boots on her feet.
She gulped and smiled at Yuri.
Yuri acknowledge as he turned on her engines and got the rotors spinning, it had been 41 years and 5 months since he piloted a helicopters, but to Yuri it felt like only 5 months. Slowly the yuri lifted green Light off the ground and she became airborne.
She sat back as he took complete control, He piloted the helicopter over Biscayne Bay and gradually over the skyline of Miami. After-wards they flew over the ocean where he took her into an altitude of near 20,ooo feet, It was the highest she had ever been. They talked about many things, everything from the zoo, to what they liked best about the sunrise. Yuri told her many tales of his time at flight school and the pranks he pulled.
Green Light in turned converted some fears she had about failing the team, and some bad dreams she was having about a battle she had never fought in. They shared each others worries and fears, and their hopes. Yuri even broke the tension by executing a sharp turn or two, and then something amazing happened, At 20,000 feet, Green Light asked to take over, to which Yuri quickly agreed. And she flew, she twisted and turned and became one with the sky. They headed back as the sun was beginning to set, Green light took them in and landed on the helipad.
"That was...really neat!, Thank you Yuri!: She smiled as she carried Yuri in her shoulder. .
"Pleasure was all mine, my babushka!" he said " It was nice to fly again."
They came across Elita One who was surprised that she was monitoring Green Light doing such magnificent feats of flying. She smiled as she saw the smile on Green Light that had long escaped her since that night she was attacked.
"Had fun you two?" She smiled.
"Da! She is "how you say" a Natural!" Yuri said tapping her on the cheek.
"Elita? Can I keep him?" She asked , like a young child wanting to keep a kitten they found." I meant,Can I be his guardian?"
"Well we've been so busy I haven't had a chance to think about assingng him protection but, yeah sure I don't see why not. " She said
"Why is it , I feel like Hamster now?" Yuri asked...
Elita one continued her call with Optimus, " What stood out about these Autobots and Decepticons is that they were on the same side, and their symbols were scratched out!"
Do you recall which Autobots they were?" Optimus asked
"All we recognized was Skids." Elita said "Should he be out by the Parggerus system?"
"The last we heard of his unit they were holding down an outpost, but that was several cycle ago" Optimus said.
" I have heard stories about some Autobot and Decepticon deserters, but they usually were followed up by a sighting of said Autobot in the field, I mean for the longest time , I heard I was killed in battle." Then Elita noticed in the span of a microsecond a flash of sadness in Prime's eyes. It was more than enough to tell her he head long heard the same story, and believed it.
"If there is a third faction here in Miami, my team will need to weed them out, I just pray by Primus they intentions are good. " Elita said.
"keep me updated with any information you have, If need be I will send Bumblebee, Arcee and Bulkhead to provide you support." Optimus said
"Thank you Optimus, But I think a Prime could reach them better." She said,
"I think that would go without saying, I hope they won't be hostile but just in case, I want your team relocated to Autobot Base One." Prime said
"Orion!-"She stopped herself " Optmus, if they are making a play they are doing it in my city!, My team will handle them and we will welcome any reinforcements from you, but I will not let Miami and it's people be victimize by these renegades!"
Optimus recognized that stubborn look in her eyes as it was the same look she had when she was Ariel. And back then Prion found it hard to resist that look, even today.
Jackson Memorial Hospital
"CODE BLUE ER! CODE BLUE ER! the intercom rang out as April's break was cut short, She was the ER physician on call, She hustled through the hallway and was met by Jody the head nurse, "It's an OD in room 9!Crash crew is en route" She said as they both went to the room, What they saw is something none of them could explain.
The 20 year old muscular male was in cardiac arrest, he was convulsing and his eyes were rolled back but that wasn't the most disturbing feature on him. The addict's veins were glowing a bright blue, It was as if his veins were flowing with glow in the dark fluid as it was starting to become more and more prominent over his body.
"Madre di dios!" Jody said as April struggled to the the guy under control.
"Help me get his airway under control!" She yelled as Jody held him while April inserted a hard plastic airway meant to keep his mouth opened and keep the tongue from being bitten off.
The crash team soon arrived as April was in charge of the code, "Get an IV started I need him infused with Ringers Lactate!, You get an epinephrine drip going!, What's his blood pressure!"
"80/40 and dropping..."
"He's flat-lining!" Jody called out as his heart monitor went flat.
April got the defibrillator paddles ready with gel, "Charging to 400! Clear!" She aid as she shocked him. Nothing.
"Dr. Sullivan, I drew the vials of his blood for the lab but they look contaminated." A Phlebotomist said as he showed her the 6 vials of blood that were a mix of blood and a glowing blue fluid.
"Let me hold on to this, for now" She said as she put them in her pocket.
She turned to the patient, As she injected hm with adrenaline through his heart, She grabbed the paddles again " Shocking to 800! Clear!" The body shook as electricity ran though his chest.
At the 20 minuet mark, and 5 shocks later April stopped everyone, " Ok guys, I'm calling it, "" She looked at the clock " Time of Death, 5:35 p.m.."
The nurses stayed behind to clean up the body , while April tended to her notes. It wasn't the first person she lost, this was maybe her 3rd, They were hard yes, but this particular one was plain disturbing. She sat at the nurses station and looked at the vial of blood mixed with fluid. She popped open the rubber top slightly and recognized the all too familiar scent of Energon.
Jody joined her "Ok the body is sent to the morgue, That boy, Dr. Sullivan, I have a friend who works at county and she said they have been getting patients in like that too, its like its some kind of new drug that makes their veins light up like that! What could cause that!"
April knew in the back of her head who was behind it, but for Jody's sake ,she had to lie to her. " I'm not sure Jody, but I need to make a phone call to the board of health."
April made sure she was alone before she made the call to Elita One.
Elita One answered right away " April, I'm a little busy with a call with Prime, right now" She said
"You need to make time for this " April said quietly, " I just had a a young man die from a drug overdose, His blood was filled with Energon!"
"Energon!" Elita said " Are you sure?
"I'm sending you a picture now! April said as Elita received a Picture text from April. It was of her holding the vial of blood in her hand, and it was a mix of blackish blood and glowing blue Energon.
"By the All-Spark" Elita gasped.
"His veins were all lit up but the stuff, and I hearing of three more cases like ths in the county!"
'We will need to inform Detective Carlo, she has one more week left on her suspension but she really needs to hear this, How soon are you getting off work.?" Elita one asked.
"Pretty soon, I just have to fill out some paperwork I'll have one of the vials on me.."April said as she looked out into the ER.
"I'll send Mirage. In the meantime I have to report this to Optimus." Elita said as she ended the call
April made her way to her work station as she was stopped by Jody, "Dr. Sullivan could you please see this Patent in room 6, she's waited for you for about 4 hours, she requested you by name."
April nodded as she took the chart from the slot on the room 6 door and went in to see the patient. Who was already sitting on the examining channel " Mrs, Peacock? Is it? How can I help you?"
Delilah Danzig looked up and smiled " It hurts right here Doctor, " She said as she pointed at her chest with her left hand and held the stun gun in her right hand behind her back.
Sunstreaker was listening to the police radio chatter, Sure enough tonight the main topic of discussion was a new type of drug on the streets called Glow. Whatever it was it was starting to claim victims. From what they could tell it was heroin mixed with other type of properties one of which was something they had never seen.
'Elita, Whatever is out there is bad news, and the way they describe it by the color and texture, it has to be Energon!" he said
"Keep an eye on the chatter I just got off the phone with Detective Carlo and Agent Greene, Perceptor pull up a map of the city and monitor any energon signals that pop up."Elita One said , Her receptors were on alert, she had a overwhelming felling that something bad was going to go down tonight.
Night crept at Club Cimera as within the deadline the Renegades gave the Miami gangs came and went,of the eight gangs that were at the meeting, Only four agreed. Sideswipe readied his cannons as he knew tonight was going to be a busy but fun night.
He looked out among his troops, Who were readying themselves and looking on the map at their targets location. "We work in two bot teams, you have your targets, Strike fast, Strike Hard,No Mercy." Sideswipe said as he turned toward Chromina, "You, with me"
When he saw all were ready he got on his comms and called Delilah, "Del, we are a go you can begin," Then the Renegade Autobots and Decepticons all transformed and sped off into the Miami night. Taking off in different directions, their reign of terror was about to begin.
Delilah clicked off her phone, she turned on the video camera and prepared to hijack the video feed of both the Autobot base in Miami and in Jasper. Finally she turned to the figure tied in the chair and pulled off the burlap sack that was over her head. April looked up and squinted into the bright light. She was bound and gagged and tied to chair in the middle of a dark stone room, the only light shining above her.
"Rise and shine cupcake!" Delilah said as she ripped off the duct tape around her mouth" it's time for your close-up!"
Agent Greene was the first to arrive at the base, "Elita what do you have for me so far?"She said as she wasted no time in taking her place at the platform overlooking the computer monitor.
"So far what we know is someone has released a drug on the street that is Heroin cut with Energon, The Hospitals in Miami are reporting multiple Overdoses all over." She reported.
"Heroin with Energon!" Greene said in amazement " Is it the Decepticons?"
"We think there might be a third faction in operation here..." She said "The other night during Detective Carlo's sting operation we were attacked by both a rouge Autobot and Decepticons."
"Are they planning on starting a war or what?" Greene asked impatiently. "And where's Carlo?"
"Carlo is in route, I am opening ground bridge for her now!" Yuri said as he opened the ground bridge .
"Yuri, They have you working for them now?" She asked him in perfect Russian
Yuri chuckled " Of course! I am out of work as a Cosmonaut , So I need the work! You give me green card yes?" He responded back in Russian.
"Convince me your not a spy and we'll talk!"
Soon Verity and Prowl came through the ground bridge, Verity got out as Prowl transformed, " We have another 7 overdoses in the past hour alone! , Please someone tell me this new drug isn't what I think it is?"
"Sorry Carlo" Sunstreaker said " its heroin cut with Energon."
She threw up her hand and bit her lip " If DEA gets wind of this, I wont be able to help you at all! I'm not even suppose to be on it for another week thanks to Miko!"
"Detective Carlo " Agent Greene called out to the Detective. "Tell me, How was Jack-I mean Jasper?"
'Why hello, Wicked Bitch of the West!" Verity said unfazed.
"Don't make me separate you two..." Elita threatened.
Then the Energon sensors fired off as alarms rang out all over base. Perceptor went to his instruments " Elita one!, I am registering multiple energon signal from all over the city!"
"Yuri, on screen!" Elita one ordered , as he looked over the control panel
"The blue button!" She said with a hint of annoyance in her voice.
Yuri quickly got the map on screen and everyone could see the 8 blips break off into groups of two and scatter over the city. They were headed to different parts of Miami, most of them were highly inhabited neighborhoods.
"We're going to need to act fast-" Elita was cut off as she received an urgent call from Mirage.
'Elita! April is missing!" He said in an agitated tone " Hospital staff haven't seen her since she before she got off work and that was at 6! I've tried calling her but all I get is her voice mail!"
The mood changed in the base as it sank in that Aprils disappearance might have something do with this.
Then the three tone message alarm rang out, "This is Autobot base Gamma Two." Elita answered, her spark in her stomach.
On the view-screen came the image of Delilah, the redhead smiled sinisterly as she looked into the camera.
"Hello Autobots, My name is Delilah. You may want to pay close attention to me and forget about those blips for now..." Agent Greene gasped as she looked at the face on the screen staring back at her.
"Grace..." She whispered n utter disbelief
"First off I just want to say guys, Im a real big fan! The notion of giant robots just clanging around and then turning into cars, copters and shit! AH! It just makes me all gooey inside!"
She held the camera to her face as it override the signal to the Autbot base, Locking any and all computer activity " Ooh! That must be my Trojan horse mucking up your computer system!: She said in mocking concern" that means you cant use the ground bridge controls! You see Perceptor! You may have thought you were clever in getting rid of any bugs I planted n Green Light ,yes that was me. That you probably failed to get rid of the bug I put in you when you examined green Light it's been sitting in you all along, I wouldn't worry about that right now i'd worry about her.
She then focused the camera on April who was strapped to a chair, Her shirt was ripped open as various wires were pierced into her skin, they were all over her chest and attached to her temples and arms. The wires were attached to a large stun gun that Delilah had in her hand. Delilah depressed the trigger and sent 5 million volts into her. April screamed as the electricity racked her body.
"Nasty little thing ain't it! "Delilah mocked " And see I pumped her full of adrenaline so she ain't getting knocked out anytime soon no matter how much I do this!' She then shocked her again as Elita forced herself not to look away as April screamed and cried out in pain. She began to breath fast as tears filled her eyes and blood began to leak from her mouth as the sound of electricity cackled throughout the base..
Both Verity and Yuri could barely stand to see April being hurt, Verity fought back hot tears as she silently swore to take this freak out.
"Oh and I think I should mention,not only am I live with you, I'm also live in Jasper! Scream for them April! "She said as she sent another charge to her , April let out a bloodcurdling scream. " I can only imagine how little jack must feel to see his auntie get worked over like this..."
"All right stop it!" Elita said forcefully" What do you want!"
" I want to see what you bots are made of, I'm daring you to come rescue her and unlike other mechanical spiders, I'll give you all the time you want! But you don't get to use the ground bridge, Sorry I have those."
"Grace!" Agent Greene called out " You get one chance to let the girl go!"
"Hey Southy!" she said as it appeared they knew each other . She then shocked April again and held the trigger "I'm sorry I cant hear you over the screaming!" Delilah yelled, finally stopping it, April was now halfway between lucidness an unconsciousness.
"I don't know what you want but please let me help you! " Greene pleaded
"We're S.G.A.T's Southy, you know the game, you know what happens when we start a mission, So come get her, Ill be here waiting, and while we wait ,April and I will have a little girl time with a lot of sharp instruments, I can go all night, but I'm not sure she can., " she saw that April was out like a light, She took a syringe that was filled with adrenaline and jabbed her in the neck with it. April's head sprang up as she woke up coughing and gagging.
"you might want to get here as soon as you can, I only have so many of these adrenaline shots, after-wards I'll have to move to something stronger" As she held up a baggie with vials of the blue glowing Energon drug called Glow, "Looking forward to it! " Delilah sang as she then cut off the camera.
Verity looked hard at Elita One " Elita, WHAT do we do!"
"Agent Greene and Yuri your with me, everyone else track those renegades.."She said with determination " Perceptor you stay here and run diagnostics on yourself!"
Then the ground bridge opened up behind Elita One as Jack and Acree raced through, It was apparent that Delilahs Trojan horse only affected the Miami crew.
"Jack, Arcee, you're with us !" Elita said not even looking back.
Jack took off his helmet, His eyes were already red from crying " Why!' He bitterly said "Why Aunt April? She's done NOTHING to deserve this!"
"I promise you Jack we are going to get her back alive and safe, and there's no place that little witch can hide!" Elita One said as she transformed.
Out in the city, Explosions started to rock the city as fires started to form, The Battle of Miami was just beginning.
