Chapter 5 of my Crossover! ...Is it obvious that I don't like being social on the weekends? Disclaimer- I do not own Transformers or the Secret Saturdays. I don't get any profit from this.
Chapter 5
"Autobots! Get back! Let Iris do her job!" Optimus ordered the instant they were outside of town. The Autobots scrambled back, but Jazz had the sense to pick up Zak before he could be crushed by mistake. Iris focused, and all her mental barriers came down, releasing the beast inside of her, the beast that let her control darkness, the beast that could destroy the world. Her full power exploded from her body, raw, untamed, wild, and uncontrolable. The 'cons howled and struggled to get away from wave after wave of darkness.
"Decepticons, retreat!" Starscream finally shrieked, transforming into a jet and flying off. The other Decepticons quickly followed, and as the last one fled, Iris pulled the power back into herself, trembling with the effort. "You okay, Iris?" Sideswipe asked as he rushed over to the girl when she swayed, dangerously close to falling over. Iris nodded mutely and stumbled over to Zak, whom Jazz had set on the ground. "I need to get up to that airship. can you throw me up there?" Zak asked, pointing up. "That won't be required, son," said a strong male voice.
Looking up, the NEST operatives saw the Saturday family coming down from their airship. "Mom! Dad! Fisk!" Zak shouted, running to embrace his family. "Zak! You're okay!" his mom said, suffocating her son in a hug. "Yeah mom, I'm fine," Zak replied as they pulled back to give him room to breathe. "This is all very touching, but the boy is still Kur. We have to take him away...we should probably take the girl, too, and run a few tests," stated the secret scientist called Dr. Beeman as he arrived with the rest of the secret scientists.
Iris gave a small whimper and Ironhide and Ratchet stepped in front of her. Ironhide glanced at Optimus. "Someone threatens our adopted daughter, shall I terminate?" he asked his leader, charging his guns. "Yeah, yeah, yeah, no one threatens Iris!" Ratchet said, sounding giddy as he eagerly directed Ironhide's cannons towards the secret scientists. "Ironhide, Ratchet, stand down!" Optimus ordered before glancing at the secret scientists. "You had better leave, before they decide to disobey." The scientists glared at the aliens, but then looked at Zak.
"Kur doesn't have any giant alien robots to protect him," Dr. Beeman stated coldly. "No! No, you're not taking my son!" Drew shouted hysterically. Iris looked at Zak curiously and took a few steps closer, her panic and struggle to contain her power momentarily forgotten. "You're Kur?" she asked, and then suddenly clutched at her head in pain, shouting something in Russian. Ratchet gave Iris his full attention while Ironhide leveled his cannons at the scientists, making it clear he would fire if they came one step closer and didn't leave soon. "Leave. Now." The secret scientists couldn't get out of there fast enough.
Zak stepped even closer to Iris, and both of their powers suddenly went crazy. Iris fell to her knees in pain and Zak groaned, grabbing hold of Iris's shoulder, though wheather it was to keep steady or give some slight reassurance was unclear. "Zak, what's wrong?" Fiskerton asked, concerned for his brother. "I don't know. My powers are going crazy," Zak replied. He was sweating from the strain his powers were putting on him, and he knew he couldn't take much more of this.
"Everyone, back up. Iris needs to be stabalized. Where are my three stabalizers?" Ratchet snapped, gently pushing everyone away except for Iris and Zak. Sideswipe, Jazz, and Ironhide stepped forward, ready to stabalize Iris, but Jolt grabbed Ironhide's arm, preventing him from stepping forward the rest of the way. "No, Ironhide, if you go through this one more time, it will kill you."
