Chapter 4: "Assigned"
Seven Decepticons streaked through the purple twilight sky. The earth's sun slowly crept into hiding behind the mountains and stars began to spot the sky.
The Decepticon that took point for this "rescue" was none other than Megatron. Megatron instantly assembled back at the Nemesis a rescue party to acquire the Cybertronian Undecided. He asked Soundwave to pull up old files about an expert tracker that used to be a member of Dunesurfer and Arcee's warrior group called the Trailblazers,for he knew he wouldn't be able to find Dunesurfer's exact location,even with an energon signature from her spilt energon.
He knew good and well what had happened to Dunesurfer before the war ended and Cybertron went dark. And with Starscream now no longer aligned with him or the Decepticons, Dunesurfer might agree to join him...or become one with the All Spark.
"Soundwave," said Megatron, "Did you give Vanguard the coordinates?"
The seven 'Cons transformed and landed on the desert ground with loud metallic thuds. Soundwave,who was standing to Megatron's right, smirked. "Good."
Moments later, a large starship lowered onto the ground,meters away from Megatron,Soundwave and the Jeticons. The Decepticon warlord watched for a moment. Nothing happened. Silence. Stillness. Nothing. Nada.
Suddenly, the door of the craft blew off,smashing one of the Jeticons in the front. Megatron looked as the dust slowly faded and a Cybertronian form came forth.
"Vanguard,long time no see,old friend." Megatron said.
Vanguard bowed deeply and replied, " Lord Megatron,it is good to be back. What did you summon me for?"
Megatron looked at Soundwave and nodded. Soundwave's visor lit up with a figure and words. Vanguard stepped forward to look.
"Dunesurfer? She's still online? And.."she squinted. "She's still Undecided. You want me to acquire her,Lord Megatron?"
The grey mech nodded. "KnockOut will go with you to rescue her."
"Rescue?" Vanguard questioned. The mech's faceplate was twisted in confusion and his red and black body shimmered in the sunlight. No response came at that very moment,instead the hot blistering wind howled and the sun blared down on them.
Finally,a response.
"Yes. She has been captured by humans. The same humans that captured BreakDown a while ago."
"And why are we saving her?" inquired Vanguard.
Megatron growled slightly and leaned close to the Decepticon tracker's face. His voice rang out as a venomous hiss that made Vanguard shiver. "Because if the Autobots get her to join them, she will destroy us all! Have you forgotten what power she possesses!"
Vanguard stepped back quickly and bowed. "My apologies,my lord. It appears that my travels have made me forget how to respect you. I shall do my best to acquire Dunesurfer. And who did you say would be joining me?"
KnockOut stepped toMegatron's side. "I am." Vanguard thought he heard KnockOut mutter nearly silently 'Unfortunately';but he decided not to reply about such.
Vanguard smirked. "This will be entertaining."
Megatron smirked and said, "Soundwave and I shall buy you some time. The Autobots are no doubt following he human's trail. Now,go. And don't you dare report back to me empty-handed!"
Vanguard and KnockOut bowed as Megatron,Soundwave and the remaining Jeticons transformed and flew away.
The red mech turned to the tracker and shrugged. "Ready to go?" he asked,clearly unhappy.
Vanguard quirked an eyebrow and sighed. "I would but I do not have a vehicle form as of yet."
KnockOut groaned. "Are you serious? Ugh,here look at this screen."
He held out a servo computer and pulled up pictures of different automobiles. "You do want automobile rather than aerial,right?"
Vanguard nodded. "Of course. Steel-belted radials are perfect. And they are better than having large bothersome wings on my back to poke me when I fall."
KnockOut chuckled as Vanguard chose a vehicle.
A black and red Corvette.
He scanned and transformed. KnockOut smirked and transformed as well. Both revved their engines and sped off.
Alright,that's all I could do with my WRITER'S BLOCK! I hate it when that happens. Sorry it was so short. I'm stuck at this point. If any loyal Decepticons or..-mumbles- Autobots..want to help PM me your ideas. Only one will be used,though. Don;t hate me if your's does not get used. Thanks and please R&R
