With nothing to be answered from you, let me move onto my newest chapter. Please be sure to review, rate, and as the drill goes, please be sure to enjoy!
Chapter 2: Pretender In Disguise
Sideways continued to drive after his defeat. "Commander Starscream, this is Decepticon Scout Sideways. Commander Starscream, do you copy?" Sideways said through his Communications System. "I just encountered nine Autobots, not six, and Optimus Prime has a new ability, as well as some new allies. Knockout was there too."
"Sideways! Tell me your location, and I shall have Soundwave open up a Ground Bridge for you to enter." Starscream then replied back.
Just then, a Ground Bridge opened up right in front of Sideways. "Thank you, Commander Starscream." Sideways then said, transforming into Robot Mode. Sideways then entered the Ground Bridge, hoping to land in the Nemesis.
Sideways looked around at the place he was in. All that was around him was just a never-ending tunnel of a Ground Bridge. "Where am I?" Sideways asked.
All of a sudden, Soundwave walked forwards. "Soundwave? Where is Commander Starscream? I must speak with him immediately."
"You can share your information with us, Fellow Decepticon." Shockwave then said, coming out from behind Soundwave.
Sideways gasped in surprise. "Shockwave?!" Sideways asked. "But Starscream reported that you perished at the servos of the Autobot Arcee when she and Cliffjumper escaped from Cybertron!"
Shockwave shook his head. "I'm not the current Shockwave of this time, and neither is Soundwave nor the Autobots you fought." Shockwave stated.
"Then how–?" Sideways started to ask.
Soundwave then cut him off, starting to play back some recordings from earlier on.
"Just to ask, what year is this?" Miko's voice said.
"2007, Why do you ask?" Kim's voice then spoke.
"Because we were fighting against Circuit Breaker, a member of the Terrorist Organization MECH, in Washington DC in the year 2014." Ratchet's voice sounded off in the recording.
"Optimus, do you think that this was the cause of the Ground Bridges together in the same place? I mean, Raf, Miko and I were sent to the Shadowzone before due to that incident." Jack then said.
"Jack, as I remember when the event happened, there were three Ground Bridges open, not two." Arcee spoke.
"Maybe they caused a time jump! I mean, the possibility of three Ground Bridges in the same area has never been explored before." Raf stated.
"If we are stuck here, in 2007, then we must do everything we can to try and get back." Optimus said, finishing up the recording.
Shockwave then looked over to both Sideways and Soundwave. "Megatron has disbanded the Decepticons in the future, and the Autobots remain." Shockwave explained. "What I wish is to rebuild our cause."
Sideways chuckled after hearing this. "Well, if there are only Autobots and no Decepticons in the future, then count me in." Sideways exclaimed.
Meanwhile, a Pod started to enter Earth's atmosphere. The Pod then started to crash towards a small island, where a building stood. Soon, the Pod crashed, and a human-sized Cybertronian emerged. The Decepticon let out a female cackle, looking around for anything to scan. She then leapt up towards the building, and looked inside to see a female figure with green and black shoot at targets. The Decepticon chuckled and scanned her, the Cybertronian Form starting to change shape.
"Shego! Can you help me here?" a voice then asked.
"Coming, Doctor D!" Shego then yelled back, shutting down the targets and then going off to help Doctor Drakken.
The female Decepticon chuckled and then ignited her arms, starting to fly off into the sky as green flames started to cover the skies.
In Middleton, Mr. Doctor Possible drove his car up to his laboratory. Kim and Ron followed in the Sloth Car as the rest of the Autobots followed after them. James rolled up to a window and showed his card to the security officer. The officer sent a nod as everyone continued to follow after him.
Soon, they made their way towards the back of the lab. James, Ann, Jim and Tim, Kim and Ron all got out before Jack got off of Arcee, Raf got out of Bumblebee, Miko got out of Bulkhead and Sierra got out of Wheeljack. All of the Autobots then transformed into Robot Mode as James Possible opened up a garage, full of spare computer and jet parts.
"Optimus Prime, as much as we'd love to assist you at home, there just simply isn't enough room for you to do your work." James Possible stated. He then showed everyone around the room as he turned the lights on. "After my first Kepler was damaged by Motor Ed, and most of the computers used in my lab started to get discarded, I now think that this place may be the best area for you Autobots to place your base."
Optimus looked around before Ratchet started to inspect the technology. "Most of this technology would be beyond human knowledge." Ratchet stated. "It's almost as if it matched with Cybertronian technology, just enough to recreate the Autobot Base." Ratchet said. He then looked over to Optimus and nodded. "Optimus, I think that we may possibly be able to make do with what we have given to us by the humans." The Autobot Field Medic stated.
Optimus nodded before turning back to the Possible Family. "Thank you, Doctor Possible," Optimus said with gratitude. "This will most certainly do."
"Any time, Optimus Prime." James replied back. He then started to make his way towards the computers. "How about I stay and help you get things ready for whatever you need to get done?" he asked.
"We can help too!" Tim exclaimed.
"I always wanted to know what it would be like to work with alien robots." Jim then said.
Ratchet looked down to the boys and scoffed. "Doctor Possible, we can trust, but what can you boys do to help us?"
"We can help calibrate subsystems," Jim started out.
"Place a global positioning network in the systems," Tim then said.
"And probably make some prosthetic servos for you if you ever get injured in battle." Jim then finished up.
Ratchet raised an eyebrow before Kim walked up. "Trust them. They've even managed to invent their own Silicon Phase Disrupter."
"Silicon Phase Disruptor?" Knockout then asked as he looked around the area as well. "That could be useful for jamming any kinds of enemy transmissions." The Former Decepticon said thoughtfully.
Arcee looked down to the three Possibles and smiled as she placed a hand to her hip. "Well, as long as you don't cause any trouble, I guess that you can help." Arcee stated.
James, Jim and Tim Possible all smiled before they went to help Ratchet with setting up everything for the new Autobot Base.
Knockout looked to everything before looking to Ultra Magnus. "It appears I may have forgotten some things that I had with me back when we landed." Knockout reported as he checked his body.
"How important are the objects you dropped?" Ultra Magnus asked.
"Very important." Knockout then said. "We may need a trailer for this."
James then looked up to Knockout. "Just heard what you said, Knockout." He stated. "I may have a trailer for you to use."
Ultra Magnus nodded. "Thank you, Doctor Possible." He said. "Please prepare the trailer, and we shall be on our way."
Meanwhile, in downtown Middleton, Janine Flanner, former student of Middleton High and current graduate, was heading towards an underground passageway to her club, the Robot Rumble. It had been a while since she went there, since she was preoccupied with schoolwork at the time she stopped going to the Robot Rumble, but now that she had graduated, she was free to spend her time any way she pleased.
From a distance away, someone watched Janine enter the tunnel. Quickly, she leapt in after her, and started to crawl on the ceilings towards where the Robot Rumble was taking place.
Janine then landed, placing her eye up to the scanner before entering. The figure behind her then put her hand into the panel, where the systems started to beep. After a while, the door opened, and the figure entered the door.
Inside, Janine looked to one of the robots that she handled when at the Robot Rumble. She placed a small beacon on it, just as Ned approached them. "Hey, Janine." Ned said. "It's been a while since you've been here."
"Got busy with school, Ned." Janine replied back with a shrug. "Where are Larry and the others?"
"Vogel said that he had a new robot he wanted to bring in from New York, Larry had to attend a family party, and the others are waiting in here." Ned replied back.
All of a sudden, there was a large clatter. Everyone watching the Robots battle, Ned and Janine all looked over towards where the sound originated from as Vivian Porter picked up her robot. "What was that?" she asked.
Just then, many of the robots started to come to life. Everyone all gasped as they then started to run from the rogue robots. Janine then held up a device in her hands and looked to the security cameras, where she noticed someone was making their way towards the door. "Someone's stolen the Enhancing Adapter!" Janine reported.
The figure then smashed through the door, starting to make her way out. However, the security drones started to chase after her, and she ran through the tunnels. Everyone all looked to see what was going on as the mysterious figure then sent a green blast towards the drones.
The next morning, Kim, Ron, Jack, Raf, Miko and Sierra all slept while James, Jim and Tim all helped Ratchet put the finishing touches on their new base. "And with that, everything should be ready!" James exclaimed.
Ratchet nodded as he looked to the Tweebs. "Jim, Timothy, activate the sensors and communications array." He ordered.
Jim and Tim both nodded as they turned on the systems. "In a couple of minutes, the systems should be online." Jim reported.
Jack, Raf, Miko, Kim, Ron and Sierra all then woke up and walked over, seeing that everything was now complete. "Great job here, Tweebs." Kim complimented. Just then, Kim started to hear her Kimmunicator ring. Kim turned on her wristwatch Kimmunicator and looked to Wade on the screen. "What's the Sitch, Wade?" she then asked.
Wade took a slurp out from his beverage before looking to Kim. "Just got a call from your Cousin Larry." Wade reported.
Kim rolled her eyes upon hearing her Cousin's name. "Great," she drawled. "What does he want this time?"
"He said that it was serious business." Wade explained. "I'm patching him through right now."
Soon, Kim's cousin, Larry, appeared on the screen. "Kim, can you come downtown?" he asked. "There was a break-in at the Robot Rumble last night."
Kim and Ron's eyes widened as they looked to the Autobots. She then covered up the Kimmunicator and started to whisper, "Sitch me."
"The culprit was using some kind of special powers, green energy, by the looks of it." Larry said. "Um, Cuz, didn't you mention having some kind of archenemy who uses green energy blasts?" Larry then asked.
"Shego?!" Kim and Ron both exclaimed.
Wade then appeared on the screen. "I'll do some looking into on Shego's current activity." He said. "For now, just get downtown."
Just then, Ratchet stammered as he looked to the screen. "Optimus, we have a Decepticon energy signature coming from downtown Middleton." The field medic reported.
Kim and Ron both looked up in confusion. "A Decepticon and Shego working together?!" Ron exclaimed. "I-I mean, how could the bad guys already form an alliance with them?!"
"We must look into this." Optimus then said. He turned his head to Arcee and nodded. "Arcee, you go with Kim and Ron to check out the energy signature downtown." He ordered. "We shall oversee everything from here."
Arcee nodded. "I'm on it, Optimus." She said.
Kim and Ron nodded as well. "We're there." She said.
"Count us in!" Ron exclaimed.
Ratchet nodded and then pulled a lever on a nearby machine. The Ground Bridge, glowing green, then lit up. "I have the coordinates set." He said to them. "Enter through the Ground Bridge, and you'll find yourself at your destination."
"Instant teleportation." Kim mused. "Spankin'!"
Arcee transformed into her Vehicle Mode as Jack mounted onto her while Kim and Ron both got into the Sloth Car. "Roll out!" Arcee then called out. Kim and Ron both nodded as they all departed through the Ground Bridge, heading towards downtown Middleton. A green light flashed as they entered through the portal, everyone now feeling that they were moving as fast as the speed of light itself.
Soon, Kim, Ron, Jack and Arcee all found themselves in downtown Middleton. Immediately, Kim and Ron started to grip their heads as if they had just experienced a brain freeze. "Whoa, that was wild." Ron stated.
Jack got off of Arcee as she then got out of Vehicle Mode and into Robot Mode. "Only humans are affected like this during Ground Bridge travel, not Bots and Cons." She said.
Jack helped to open the door of the Sloth Car while Kim and Ron both got out soon afterwards. "Trust me, it takes some getting used to." Jack then told Kim and Ron.
Kim nodded before looking to her Kimmunicator on her wrist. "Wade, are you sure that Larry gave the right coordinates?" She asked, feeling unsure of the situation. "I don't see Shego anywhere in sight."
Arcee then activated her comm. system. "Ratchet, I'm with Kim on this one," she reported. "I'm not getting a visual of any Decepticons as far as my sensors pick up."
Back at the Autobot Base, Ratchet looked to the systems. He sighed before looking to James, Jim and Tim Possible. "Are you certain that the systems are functioning properly?" He asked.
James looked to the wires that were powering up the systems before looking back to Ratchet. "Everything's all good here, Doc." The Rocket Scientist reported. "No signs of malfunctions here."
Jim and Tim both looked to each other before they both looked to their computers and starting to type away. "We're seeing everything functioning and operational here, Ratchet." Tim stated, showing the analysis of the systems check on the big screen.
"Nothing going on wrong here too, Doc." Jim also said, showing another screen on Ratchet's computer. "There's no sign of a malfunction or anything."
Raf then stepped up. "Can I take a look?" He asked.
"Sure, Raf." Jim replied, handing Rafael his computer.
Raf nodded as he pulled up a screen, beginning to type away. "Main systems, check," Raf said as he looked towards the computer, data starting to load. "Subsystems are a go." Raf then said. He then looked up to Ratchet and shrugged. "Everything seems fine to me."
Ratchet sighed as he then looked back to the screen. "Arcee, our scanners indicate that a Decepticon really is there." He reported.
Wade typed away at his computer before looking up. "Kim, I'm definitely sure that Shego is in that area." Wade reported. "I got a lock on her energy Go Team Glow signature, and she's there."
Kim sighed. "Nowhere in sight." She reported. "Wade, are you sure that you might have the wrong info-?"
All of a sudden, the entrance tunnel down to the Robot Rumble started to clank. Everyone looked to see the lid blow off before someone leapt out. Kim and Arcee both prepared to attack as Jack and Ron stood by for support.
"Shego, is that you?!" Kim asked.
Shego looked to the large group as she glanced from one person to another. "'Shego'? Who's that?" Shego then asked, raising an eyebrow. "More importantly, who are you?"
Kim raised an eyebrow in confusion at this. "Shego! You've fought me lots of times and fought alongside me six times." Kim exclaimed. "How could you not remember who I am?!"
"Do you at least remember who I am?" Ron then asked.
Shego slouched the bag of her stolen items over her shoulder as she looked to Ron. After a while, she shook her head. "Nothing comes to my memory." She said. "No idea who you are, either."
Kim growled in anger. "How can she not remember who I am after all this time?!" she exclaimed.
Ron then leaned in to Kim's ear and whispered, "Now you know how I feel." Kim rolled her eyes as she and Ron then resumed their fighting stances.
Shego just rolled her eyes before she then looked up to see Arcee aiming her blasters at her. Shego chuckled. "Well, well, well, if it isn't Arcee." She mused.
Arcee continued to aim her blasters at Shego as she narrowed her eyes at the villainess. "How do you know my name, human?" she demanded.
"'Human?'" Shego asked. She let out a chuckle before a grin emerged on her face. "How degrading. You seem more naïve than the time I tracked you down on Kaon." Shego then teased.
"You're bluffing," Arcee remarked.
Kim looked to Arcee and Shego, confused at what was happening. "I don't know what's going on, Shego, but I'm taking you in!" Kim exclaimed.
Shego then looked aside and growled. "Stop calling me Shego!" she demanded. With that, she sent a green energy blast towards Kim. Kim gasped and dodged to the side. Arcee then started to fire down on Shego, but Shego just backflipped and avoided every blast. Shego then lit up her hands and laughed. "You wanna play, Arcee?! Let's play!" Shego quipped, charging towards the two-wheeler Autobot.
Arcee then let out her blades from her arms and started to slash back, the two clashing immediately with each other. Shego leapt off of many of the nearby buildings while slashing at Arcee. She then sent a straight punch towards Arcee, but Arcee just countered back with a punch of her own, green light and silver blades colliding and locking with each other. Finally, the two broke off, Shego loading herself up with energy and then sending Arcee to the side.
"Arcee!" Kim yelled out. Shego then looked over towards Kim as she started to charge towards the former Team Go member. Shego charged back, and the two immediately sent punches towards each other's chests.
Sparks started to fly as Shego and Kim punched each other. Kim sent another punch towards Shego's stomach, but Shego just grabbed it and started to twirl Kim around. Kim threw Shego's hands off and sent a right kick towards her, but Shego then lit up one of her hands and slashed Kim away. Kim groaned as she fell back to a railing by the side of the road. Shego then grabbed Kim and started to knee her in the chest repeatedly before throwing Kim towards a nearby car.
Arcee then leapt into the air and shot down at Shego, but Shego threw Kim towards the Autobot. Arcee gasped in surprise as she then caught Kim, landing on the ground below.
Shego growled as she then walked towards the two. "Perish, Autobot! Die, human!" the villainess yelled out. Kim and Arcee then looked over to the side as Shego then shot lightning towards the two.
Kim and Shego both gasped, leaping towards opposite sides. Shego then held up a Force-Field Generator, beginning to deflect the lightning. Shego laughed as she then placed her hand to the ground, sending a surge of lightning that eventually hit Arcee, causing her to fall back.
"Stop this, Shego!" Kim then yelled out, grabbing a metal rod on the ground. Shego looked over to the side as Kim then charged towards her, slashing with the rod in her hands. Shego lit up her hands with green energy again and started to clash with her. Kim swung to the right before swinging to the left, but Shego grabbed the rod and then slammed her fists onto the rod, smirking at Kim.
"You have quite the energy there, human." Shego then remarked. "It would almost be a shame to rip you apart!"
Kim then gasped as she threw Shego off. Shego then sent out a long cord, wrapping around the rod. "Huh?" Kim asked in confusion. Shego then roared as she sent out a surge of electricity through the cord and the rod, causing Kim to yell in pain. After a while, she stopped yelling and fell to the ground.
Shego then got up and looked to Kim, now unconscious. "You put up a good battle, human, but all good things must come to an end." She remarked, lighting up her hand with green energy once again.
"No!" Jack then yelled out. He grabbed a fire extinguisher from nearby and created a cloud of smoke at Shego. Shego gasped and looked around as Ron started to glow with blue energy surging through him.
Shego, however, wasn't fooled by this distraction. Her eyes started to glow, and she could see Ron preparing to attack. "More humans?!" she exclaimed. She then shot towards where Ron was and growled. "Lord Megatron will surely see to it that he wipes this Planet clean of organic filth!" Shego then yelled.
Shego walked up calmly and attacked Ron with a left swing. Ron blocked her attack and then attacked with his right hand, clashing with Shego's left. Shego then struck with a punch followed by a swirling punch from her right fist. Before the former member of Team Go could even strike at her with her left fist, Ron blocked it, followed by Shego attacking with a right hook, which Ron blocked as well with both of his hands. Ron then lunged at Shego, but former Team Go member grabbed his fist and threw him off before turning and kicking at him. Ron just twirled into the air to dodge as Shego twirled to attack. Shego then performed a low roundhouse kick, only for Ron to backflip and counter with another low roundhouse kick as Shego struck with a high jump kick.
Kim then started to wake up, seeing Ron take on Shego. Ron got better. Wow. Kim thought to herself. She then got up and leapt into the air. Ron noticed Kim running from behind him and knelt over, letting Kim roll over Ron's back and then send one kick towards Shego's chest.
Shego stumbled back before Arcee got up, sending a blast towards her. Shego gasped as she was then hit in the chest. Kim, Ron and Jack all gasped as well, thinking that Shego might have died from the blast, but she just got up off the ground and snarled at them. She picked up her sack and chuckled. "Until we all battle again!" Shego then exclaimed. With that, she shot at the ground, causing a cloud of smoke to appear.
Arcee raised an eyebrow at this before placing her hand to her head. "Ratchet, we only found that Shego girl that Kim mentioned, but there was no Decepticon in the area." She reported.
"That's strange." Ratchet then said, typing at his computer. "The Decepticon Energy signature just disappeared from your area right before you contacted me."
Kim looked to the smokescreen and placed her hand to her chin. She then turned on her Wristwatch Kimmunicator. "Wade, get me Shego's location." She ordered. "She can't get away from us for that long."
Wade typed away at his computer. After a while, he raised an eyebrow in confusion before looking back to Kim. "Uh, Kim I just tapped into Drakken's security cameras, and Shego's been at his lair the whole time." He reported.
"Well, there's no one else who wears green black, and lights up all over except for Shego." Ron stated. He then looked to Kim. "Do you think that it was Camille Leon?"
"Not likely." Wade then said. "She's still in prison." Wade then pulled up some current security footage, showing Camille in her cell, lying back against the wall while reading a magazine. She looked to the camera and then placed the magazine over her face, covering herself up.
"Okay, this is weird." Kim said. She then switched the screen and looked to Raf. "Raf, can you open up a Return Ground Bridge back to base?" she asked.
"No problem, Kim." Raf replied. He then typed away at his computer, and a Ground Bridge, the same as the one that brought them to downtown, opened up. Kim and Ron got into the Sloth Car as Jack got his helmet back on. Arcee transformed back into Vehicle Mode, and Jack got on top of her. The four then made their way back to base.
At the Autobot Base, Kim, Ron, Jack and Arcee all arrived back. Kim, Ron and Jack all started to find places to park while Knockout entered the Base with Ultra Magnus by his side. "These should all help make our new Base like home." Knockout then said.
Kim and Ron both looked to Knockout as Wheeljack came over to help unload the items that Knockout dropped upon arrival into 2007. Jack and Miko both walked up to the couple. "So, Shego was much stronger this time, huh?" Miko asked.
Kim placed her hand to her chin and shook her head. "Shego referred to us as humans," she started out.
"And mentioned Kaon and addressed Megatron as 'Lord Megatron'." Arcee finished up.
"I have a feeling that whoever we fought wasn't Shego, but an imposter." Kim then said.
Jim and Tim then jumped down from their spot with Raf. "If you're looking forward to meeting with Drakken and Shego about the matter, then we have the exact longitude and latitude coordinates of Dr. Drakken's base." Raf said.
Kim smirked as she then got back into the Sloth Car. "Let's see if Doctor Drakken is up for an appointment." Kim then quipped.
Optimus looked down to Kim as he stopped his work unloading stuff from Knockout and Ultra Magnus. "You speak much of this 'Doctor Drakken'." Optimus said to the two new human allies. Kim and Ron both looked up to Optimus as he looked down to them. "Who exactly is he?"
"Uh, yeah, Doctor Drakken's a former supervillain, or at least that's what we think he is now, and tried to take over the world a couple of times every year and season." Ron started to explain.
"So what made him turn good?" Arcee then asked.
"He helped to save the World." Kim explained. "According to a broadcast from the United Nations, Drakken is sharing his knowledge with the World."
"Drakken is also known for his scientific genius, and sometimes excels in robotic engineering." Ron also added on.
"He could be a great robotics engineer expert… if he only had the right layouts and schematics, which he used to steal." Kim added on to Ron's statement.
Knockout grinned at this. "Well, we could use some more scientists to help out around here." The former Decepticon stated, looking to the Base as it was still being under construction. "I mean, aside from Rafael, James, Jim and Tim Possible, we could use some more brilliant minds."
James nodded as he started to think about Drew. "Well, Drew's past may be checkered, but I'm sure that he could help out here, if Kim doesn't mind her archenemy working with us." James said, looking over towards Kim.
"Hey, if he can help us in our situation against the Decepticons, then it's alright with me." Kim stated.
Optimus Prime nodded before looking to Arcee and Bulkhead. "Arcee, Bulkhead, come with me, Kimberly and Ronald to meet with Doctor Drakken." He ordered. Optimus then looked down to Jack and Raf. "If Drakken and Shego get suspicious, please come with us to provide some cover." Optimus then asked Jack and Miko.
Jack nodded as he got onto Arcee again while Miko got into Bulkhead. Kim and Ron both strapped in before Ratchet pulled on the lever again, pulling up a Ground Bridge that led to Drakken's lair. Optimus then transformed and drove off. "Autobots, Kim, Ron, roll out!" he yelled. Everyone then drove off after Optimus, now entering Doctor Drakken's island lair.
From a distance away, Circuit Breaker sat in her car. She smirked upon hearing this. "So, we have a Decepticon and a human, huh?" she asked. She then started to spark with electricity before she then disappeared into a circuit board.
At Drakken's lair, the Ground Bridge opened up. Kim led the Autobots with Ron in the Sloth Car as they all drove up a small passageway by the foot of the island. Kim scanned the lair with her Kimmunicator Watch, and then red lights started to appear on her Car LCD. She then looked to Optimus and sighed. "It seems, that after there was an alien invasion from the day of our graduation, Drakken upgraded his security systems." She reported. She then looked back to the lair and narrowed her eyes. "It will be quite a challenge to get in undetected."
Kim was right. The once, vulnerable lair was now upgraded with laser defense systems, cameras, and mines, all surrounding the outside of the lair. Optimus, always seeing an opportunity, looked over towards where the path they were currently rested on. "It seems that the pathway we are on goes on and leads towards an opening: the back of the island." He told Kim. "It looks like this was actually the one area Doctor Drakken forgot to cover."
Ron looked over towards the pathway and nodded. "Mm-hmm, and Drakken always has a flaw in his systems." He mused.
Kim nodded and started up the Sloth Car again. "Let's roll." Kim said. Optimus Prime, Arcee and Bulkhead then followed after Kim and Ron, the five vehicles heading into Doctor Drakken's lair.
Soon, the Sloth Car, followed by Optimus, Arcee and Bulkhead, all entered into the back entrance of Drakken's lair. A large room was at the end of the pathway, where Drakken had his hovercraft parked. The Autobots all parked there as well, while Kim, Ron, Jack and Miko all got out.
Kim then looked over to Jack and Miko. "Remember," she started out. "If Drakken or Shego ever ask who you are, just say that you are students who are shadowing us on a mission." Kim said.
"You got it!" Miko then said quietly while Jack sent a nod.
Kim then looked over to Optimus, Arcee and Bulkhead. "Stay here, and don't draw attention to yourselves." She ordered. "The last thing we need is Drakken finding us and saying–"
"Kim Possible!" a voice then called out. Kim, Ron, Jack and Miko all looked up to see Drakken emerging from a passageway and looking down to them with his hands behind his back. "And Ron Stoppable, I see." Drakken then added on.
"Ha!" Ron exclaimed. "He finally remembers my name!"
"The time had to come." Drakken then retorted. He then cleared his throat as he walked back, holding something in his hands behind the wall next to him. "Now that I have you here, there is something that needs to be taken care of." Drakken said. Kim and Ron both got into fighting stances before Drakken pulled out a large table. "Can you help us move these things?" he then asked in a strained voice.
Kim and Ron both faltered in disbelief. "Come again, dude?" Ron asked.
"This island is being sold." A voice then said. Everyone looked over to the side to then see Shego come in with a forklift full of many of the furniture and technology Drakken and Shego both owned.
"All part of our reparations to the Planet after we helped save Earth." Drakken then finished up. He then took notice of Jack and Miko, raising an eyebrow. "And these two are?" he asked.
Jack and Miko both looked to each other before remembering what Kim and Ron told them. "Um, we're interns," Jack made up.
"Student interns, hoping to gain extra credit for college!" Miko then exclaimed.
Bulkhead sighed as he watched everything go on. "This is just like when Fowler found out about them." He said. "Calling themselves Interns was the only thing which they could come up with."
"I don't understand this Drakken." Arcee then said. "He's blue. Since when do humans have blue skin?"
Shego then looked over to Optimus, Bulkhead and Arcee. "Hey, are those your vehicles?" she asked Kim, Ron, Jack and Miko.
Jack and Miko both looked back to the Autobots before looking to Kim and Ron. The two just sent them shrugs before Jack looked to Shego. "Um, they're rentals." Jack made up again.
Shego raised an eyebrow at this statement, seeming doubtful. However, before she could question them, Doctor Drakken decided to have a look at the three new vehicles that were brought in. He started to feel all around Arcee, seeing how sturdy she was before going to Bulkhead. He opened the door and looked inside. There was only Miko's guitar there, which he then threw aside. Finally, he looked over to Optimus and grinned. He looked back to Kim, Ron, Jack and Miko with a smile on his face.
"You don't mind if we load some of the things we have into your vehicles, do you?" Drakken asked.
Jack shook his head, as well as Miko. "No, not at all." Jack said.
"Help yourself." Miko added on.
Shego then brought the forklift over towards where Bulkhead was. Miko ran into him and then pressed a button, opening up the back. Shego placed the furniture into his back while Miko cleared out all of the back seats.
Drakken then brought over another pitchfork, placing some of the stuff into the back trunk of the Sloth Car.
Just then, a large rumbling sound filled the room. Everyone looked around as rocks started to fall. "What was that?" Kim asked.
Drakken's eyes widened when he suddenly heard an alarm go off. "How can that be?!" he exclaimed.
"Self-Destruct Sequence Activated. Self-Destruct Sequence Activated. Fifty seconds until detonation."
Kim, Ron, Drakken, Shego, Jack and Miko all gasped when they heard this. "Get in!" Kim then yelled to Drakken and Shego.
Miko then grabbed Shego, pulling her into Bulkhead. "Hey! Watch it!" Shego called out as she was placed into the green muscle car.
Drakken ran into Optimus as Kim and Ron then strapped themselves into the Sloth Car while Jack got onto Arcee.
"Ratchet, fire up the Ground Bridge!" Optimus then called out.
Drakken looked around as he was strapping himself up. "Who said that?" he asked.
"Doctor Drakken, I suggest that you hold on." Optimus then said.
A Ground Bridge then opened up behind all of the vehicles, causing Drakken and Shego to both gasp. "Kick it!" Kim yelled, placing her foot to the pedal. Everyone else soon followed, taking all that they could carry with them as the headed back towards the Autobot Base, the explosion of Drakken's lair chasing after them just when the Ground Bridge closed.
From a distance away from the lair, Circuit Breaker emerged from a power line, looking to the destruction of the base. She smirked as she then looked to what remained of Drakken's old hover craft. "Looks like my work here is done." Josie quipped. She then sent a blast towards the remains of the hover craft, instantly transforming it into a hover jet. She climbed aboard it and then flew off into the distance, laughing at her victory.
Back at the Autobot Base, Kim, Ron, Jack, Miko, Drakken, Shego, Optimus, Arcee and Bulkhead all arrived back through the Ground Bridge. Ratchet looked to see a large explosion behind them, and immediately closed the Ground Bridge before it could affect the Base.
Ratchet chuckled as he then walked over towards Optimus. Drakken gasped at the sight of the Autobot, as well as Shego, as Bumblebee, Smokescreen and Wheeljack all came over too. "Cutting it a bit close, don't you think, Optimus?" Ratchet asked.
Drakken nervously got out of Optimus while Miko and Shego both got out of Bulkhead. Jack got off of Arcee, and all of the Autobots transformed into their respective Robot Modes. "Back there, the lair had been activated in some sort of self-destruct sequence." Arcee started to explain, stretching her servos. She then motioned both of her hands towards Drakken and Shego. "Luckily, we managed to save Doctor Drakken and Shego, who doesn't seem to know who I am right now." Arcee went on.
Kim and Ron both got out of the Sloth Car, and Drakken and Shego both looked towards their Car as well. "So, does your Car transform into some sort of robot also?" Drakken asked.
"This is too much for me to process right now." Shego then stated, placing her hand to her head before looking over towards Jack and Miko. "I'm betting that those two aren't even interns." She guessed.
"You got us." Jack stated. "We're all, how shall you put it, more than meets the eye." He added on.
Ratchet then walked over towards Shego, causing the former villainess to look up. "What?!" she yelled.
Ratchet just said nothing and then took out a device. He started to scan her, much to Shego's confusion. He walked over to the computer silently before looking down towards Drakken. "I understand that you have some knowledge in robotics, am I correct?" Ratchet asked.
"Only with the right schematics," Drakken replied, looking over to the large screen with Cybertronian writing. "Otherwise, I'm clueless as to what I am programming."
Ratchet then pressed a button on his keyboard, causing some schematics to display on a computer screen in front of Drakken. "Doctor Drakken, these schematics here should provide you with enough knowledge to help us in our struggle." Optimus then said, walking over.
"Someone want to tell us what's going on?" Shego then asked annoyingly, placing a hand on her hip. "We faced aliens before two years ago, but I can't help but wonder about what you are." Shego said. Every one of the Autobots looked towards Shego with confusion, seeming to be skeptical about the large Autobot aliens that were in their midst. Optimus prime, seeing the tension go on, decided to take care of things as he walked over towards them as he lowered his mouth plate.
"You two aren't under arrest, but there is a lot we need to explain to you in order to maintain some peace and order." Optimus said, trying to calm Shego down as she started panting in frustration. "The more we tell you, the more your imposter can be tracked down."
"Someone's posing as me?!" Shego then yelled, blasting towards a large lever next to the Autobot Field Medic.
Ratchet looked over to Shego with frustration and growled. "Shego, I needed that!" Ratchet exclaimed. He started to mumble as he went back to work. "But in other news, I have just taken the scan of Shego, and she does not match up with the Decepticon Energy Signature we picked up a while back." Ratchet then said.
"Decepticons?" Drakken then asked, raising an eyebrow. "What are those?"
"The Decepticons were the former enemies of us, the Autobots." Optimus started to explain. "Both Autobots and Decepticons wished to gain control over our home Planet of Cybertron, but in the end, the Decepticons were no more, and every Cybertronian being lived in peace with one another."
Kim and Ron then stepped up. "You see, Optimus Prime, Arcee, Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Ratchet, Wheeljack, Smokescreen, Ultra Magnus and Knockout, a Decepticon who turned good, all came from the future." Kim explained. "The Autobots came from 2014, and landed here, in 2007."
"Their past selves are in the present, here, but we're trying to help them get back." Ron then explained.
"Past, present and future," Shego started to muse. "Why do I somehow see myself as a ruler in the future when I think of that?" she then asked. Shrugging it off, she looked over towards Ratchet. "Hey, ambulance!" she called out.
Ratchet looked down and sighed. "Zip, zip, zip, zip, what is it?" he asked.
"What did you mean when you were comparing me to a Decepticon?" she asked. She then looked over to Optimus and snarled. "And how is there an imposter of me out there?!" she demanded.
"Sorry about that, Shego," Arcee then said, walking over. "But earlier today, Kim, Ron and I all fought someone who bore a similar resemblance to you, only with a bunch more powers than you usually have." Arcee explained.
"We assumed it was you, but that imposter started to say some things that were… Cybertronian." Kim stated.
Shego growled and sent a blast towards the sky. Luckily, Wheeljack held his sword over the air, slashing the blast apart before Shego sighed. "I always hated the idea of a clone of me." She complained. She then looked over towards Kim and Ron and craned her neck. "I-it just never occurred to me that that clone would happen to be some sort of alien robot who can take on the disguise of humans," she added on. "I mean, by the looks of all of the Autobots, I thought that only they and the very evil Decepticons can take on the forms of vehicles, not human beings."
"Whoever impersonated you has all of your powers, but not your memory." Raf then said as he typed at his computer. Shego raised an eyebrow as Raf pulled up some of the footage onto another big screen. "When you look at the Deception's abilities and compare them to yours, it seems like a mirage." Raf explained.
"Mirage?" Arcee asked.
"That Decepticon with Airachnid back during the war who helped to track you down?" Bulkhead then asked.
"I'm sorry, but who's Mirage?" Shego then asked.
"A Decepticon Assassin who I fought back on Cybertron before it went dark." Arcee explained. "She was talented, and held some of your abilities."
"Well, if you want to do things the hard way…" Shego then mused.
Just then, the computer started to beep, causing Ratchet to go and check on who was calling. "Kimberly, I'm receiving a transmission from Wade." He reported to the Girl Who Can Do Anything.
Kim stepped up and nodded. "Patch him through." She said.
Ratchet nodded at this before he then pressed a button. Wade then appeared on the main screen, looking down to Kim. "Kim, have you found out whether or not the person you fought was the real Shego?" Wade asked.
"Shego's right here, Nerd-Linger." Shego remarked, stepping up.
"We figured out that the 'Shego' we fought was a Decepticon by the name of Mirage." Arcee then told Wade.
"I thought that Decepticons and other Cybertronians can only take on vehicular forms." Wade then asked, seeming to be confused.
"Well, somehow, this Decepticon was able to take on a human appearance," Ratchet then said. He typed away at his terminal before some beeping started to sound off from Wade's computer. "Wade, I have just sent you the Decepticon Energy Signature that Mirage is giving off." Ratchet then explained. "It should make it easier for both of us to track her down."
Wade nodded as he started to type, his image on the screen disappearing as Ratchet started to get to work as well.
Kim looked up before looking to her Wristwatch Kimmunicator. "Well, Wade, what have you got?" She asked.
Dr. Drakken then started to get to work as he started to look to the Cybertronian schematics that he was given. "Okay, so the formula for Synthetic Energon should be simple to solve if we reduce the steroidal effect it gives, Ratchet." Drakken said as he looked up to Ratchet.
Ratchet looked down and nodded before the sensors started to go off. "That's good, Doctor Drakken, but right now, we just caught the Energy Signature of Mirage." He reported.
Kim and Shego both looked up as Ratchet pulled up a screen. "This laboratory seems to be her target." Ratchet explained. "But what she's after, I don't know."
"I do." Wade then said. Kim looked down to her Kimmunicator to see Wade.
"What have you got, Wade?" Kim asked:.
"Remember Ray-X?" Wade asked.
"That thing we could have used on ourselves to get rid of our colds?" Ron then asked. "Man, I hated the irony in that, it tanked."
"Well, according to the scientists, they created another Ray-X, but this time, it's actually a weapon." Wade explained.
"And how do you know this?" Kim asked as she raised an eyebrow in suspicion.
"If the 'X' is supposed to mean the Unknown, then how do you know?" Ron then chimed in.
"When Ray-X ver. 2 was stolen, the scientists told me to tell you about what it does in case anyone tries to use it on you." Wade explained. "You'd better get there."
Kim nodded before Wade started to type at his computer. "I'm sending Ratchet Ground Bridge coordinates to Bridge you there now." Wade said.
"Please and thank you." Kim said, sending a salute.
Ratchet soon received the Ground Bridge coordinates and then plugged them into the system. Within minutes, a Ground Bridge opened up, glowing green.
"I'm there." Shego then said, making her way towards Bumblebee as he transformed into Vehicle Mode.
Optimus then stepped up. "Shego, with all due respect, I recommend that you stay here for now." Optimus said.
Shego looked up to Optimus Prime with confusion. "But Optimus, this Decepticon is the one impersonating me!" She protested. "I have to take her down!"
"I understand, but I can see that your emotions are clouding your judgment." Optimus replied back.
Shego sighed upon hearing this. Kim then walked up with Ron as they made their way towards the Sloth Car. "Sometimes, Optimus knows best." Kim said.
"Yeah, he's not the only one who can see how much your anger gets the better of you." Ron added on.
Optimus then started to speak again. "I suggest that you stay and think about how you will use your emotions before bringing them into battle." Optimus said.
Shego sighed and finally nodded. "Okay, fine," she gave in. "I'll stay here."
Kim then patted Shego on the shoulder before getting into the Sloth Car with Ron. "Don't worry, Shego," Kim told Shego with reassurance. "We'll kick Mirage's circuitry for you."
Shego sighed once again before looking back to Kim and sending her a smile. "Okay, Kimmie, just remember the ways you fought me in the past, and you should be fine."
Kim nodded before she drove off with Bumblebee and Arcee towards the Ground Bridge towards the Science Lab. Shego let out yet another sigh before walking over towards a sofa, where Miko was playing on her guitar.
Meanwhile, Kim and Ron both led Bumblebee and Arcee towards the Science Lab. "So, how dangerous do you suppose this second Ray-X is, KP?" Ron asked. He was still thinking about the ring he wanted to give Kim during their date, but didn't want to bring it up at the wrong time.
"Who knows, Ron?" Kim replied back. "Considering that this Ray-X doesn't eradicate the common cold, I'd say that it's about the closest thing we have to an actual, dangerous weapon as ever." Kim added on. She was also thinking about the Anniversary Gift she wanted to give Ron, but like him, she wanted to find the right time to give it to him.
"Metal to the pedal, you two." Arcee then said through the comm systems. "We're nearly there, by the coordinates that Wade supplied to us."
"Right, we need to stay focused." Bumblebee stated. "For all we know, Circuit Breaker could be involved."
Just then, they all came out of the Ground Bridge and into the Science Laboratory. "Okay, be careful." Kim said as she looked around. Bumblebee and Arcee both transformed as they loaded up their blasters, looking for any kinds of threats.
All of a sudden, the sound of a blast powering up filled the room. Bumblebee looked to the side as a laser blast was sent towards them. "Look out!" Bumblebee called out, rolling off to the side.
Kim, Ron and Arcee all looked over to the side and dodged another blast. A large smokescreen emerged, and coming out from the smoke was Mirage herself. She lit up one of her hands before looking over towards Bumblebee. "Well, well, well, this is a surprise." She mused. "I was pretty sure that Megatron damaged your Voice Box back on Tiger Pax, Autobot Scout." Mirage remarked.
"Good things don't last forever, Mirage." Bumblebee spat back. "Just like when Alpha Trion and the Council of Primes forged the Star Saber, which absolutely none of the Decepticons can use."
"Too bad it was lost forever!" Mirage yelled, sending another blast towards the Autobots and their human allies.
Kim then leapt into the air and sent a grappling cord from her Wristwatch Kimmunicator, wrapping around Mirage. Kim looked to her before looking to the side. There was the second Ray-X, only looking as if it had more circuitry on the outside than on the inside. "That's not Earth Technology, is it?" She asked Arcee and Bumblebee with curiosity.
Arcee placed her servo up to her head. "Ratch, are you getting this?" Arcee asked.
Back at the Autobot Base, Ratchet and Doctor Drakken started to look at the scan of the new Ray-X. "That's no Earth weapon." Drakken stated with worriment.
"Kim, Ron, Bumblebee, Arcee, that weapon is of Cybertronian origin!" Ratchet then said through the comm systems.
Kim gasped as she backflipped from one of the laser blasts from Ray-X. "But how could humans gain control of Cybertronian Tech?" she asked.
Arcee growled as she shot towards mirage, who flipped and dodged the attack. "Circuit Breaker!" she exclaimed.
"Not sure who that is, but it doesn't matter." Mirage then stated. She started to form cannons directly from her right arm while plugging her left arm into Ray-X. "I'm about to reduce you to Slag." Mirage then remarked. With that, she combined the powers from Ray-X with her own, sending out a powered attack.
"If a robot's out stealing technology, then they have only one intention," Drakken stated as he watched the battle go on. "They want an upgrade."
Shego looked to the footage and gasped. "They need my help!" she exclaimed.
Optimus then looked down to her. "Shego," he said calmly. Shego stopped heading towards the Ground Bridge and looked to Optimus. "We have been told many things about you and how your emotions can get the better of you." The Prime stated. "If you go out there, are you sure that you can keep those feelings in check?"
Shego sighed as she turned her head away to think. "Optimus, emotions are essential for humankind," Shego started out. She then clenched her fist before looking up to him. "My emotions help me in battle. There's always a feeling in me saying that I may not come back alive." Shego went on. "My emotions are the one thing I can rely on in battle. I can control them, and I can be able to do the job right with all the power I have."
Optimus looked down to Shego and then nodded. "Shego, if you believe your emotions can help to boost your powers, then by all means, I will not stop you." Optimus stated. Shego smiled after hearing this before Optimus pulled on the lever. "Now, go and help your friends, and I wish you the best of luck." Optimus Prime finished up. "You are a powerful being, and what you do with your power is your decision, and no one else's."
Shego smiled and nodded, sending a salute to Optimus before she ran through the Ground Bridge, now going to help Team Possible and Team Prime.
Back at the lab, Bumblebee and Arcee continued to fire at Mirage. Mirage just kept herself connected to Ray-X ver. 2 as she shot back. Kim and Ron ran from both sides, attempting to strike at Mirage whenever they had the chance.
Mirage looked to Ron from her left side. He started to jump into the air to perform a dropkick on the Decepticon Scout, but Mirage sent a blast of electricity towards him, causing Ron to fall back.
Kim then dashed straight in, performing a right hook. "Out of my way, human!" Mirage called out, knocking Kim away. Kim groaned as she fell to the ground. Mirage stopped focusing her firepower on the two Autobots and looked down to Kim. "You put up a good fight there, human, but all good things must come to an end." She remarked. She then placed the cannon on Ray-X ver. 2 and started to charge it up, directly at Kim's face.
All of a sudden, a green blast hit Mirage, causing her blast to redirect towards the door. Everyone looked to the side to see Shego standing there, her arm raised at Mirage. "No one impersonates me and gets away with it!" she exclaimed. Kim smiled at Shego before she grabbed her fallen Wristwatch Kimmunicator, placing it back on. Shego then walked over to Kim and held out her hand. "Need a lift, Kimmie?" she asked.
"So, you do care." Kim teased.
Shego shrugged and chuckled. "Yeah, I guess I do." She replied back.
Kim and Shego then stood back to back with each other, getting into fighting stances. Ron then joined them, the three now ready to fight.
Mirage looked to them and chuckled, starting to charge up for another blast. However, a strong magnetic force started to pull her in, and Bumblebee then unsheathed the Polarity Gauntlet, causing Mirage to be held in place. Then, he started to pull Mirage in, getting Kim, Ron and Shego to all punch at Mirage the minute she came in contact with them. She was thrown back again due to a blast from Arcee, and Kim, Ron and Shego all leapt into the air and sent dropkicks onto Mirage, sending her back.
Mirage growled as she got up. Kim and Ron leapt into the air and sent twin punches towards the Decepticon Pretender, followed by Shego lashing at her with her green plasma. A green energy whip started to strike Mirage repeatedly before Kim then dashed towards Shego. "I'll hit her high…" Shego started out.
"And I hit her low!" Kim exclaimed. Shego then twirled into the air as Kim caught her by the feet, launching her straight towards Mirage. Mirage gasped as she was then struck by Shego before Kim slid under her and performed a roundhouse kick.
Mirage yelled as she was sent to the ground before Kim grabbed Ray-X ver. 2. "Say good night, 'Con!" Kim then exclaimed. With that, she shot a laser from Ray-X ver. 2 and sent Mirage outside. Glass shattered as she landed on the pavement, her body starting to spark.
Everyone then ran outside, seeing Mirage growling and panting with exhaustion. "So, Earth can fight back." Mirage mused. Her body continued to spark until she noticed a green and black motorcycle at the side. She chuckled before turning back. "One day, Lord Megatron will terminate all of you for sure." She exclaimed. With that, she then scanned the motorcycle.
Everyone gasped as Mirage leapt into the air, her legs twirling behind her back while neck snapped off, her hair starting to form the controls of the bike, her head then twirled around as her arms formed both front and back fenders. Wheels appeared from her back and front, and she was now in Vehicle Mode. She started to ride off, a holographic rider appearing on her as she rode away.
Shego aimed one of her hands towards Mirage, but Kim placed it down. "We won." She stated. "The Decepticon's been sent running, and everything's good."
"We just hope that she doesn't report to Starscream of this time." Bumblebee then pointed out.
Back at the Autobot Base, Optimus looked down to Shego and Doctor Drakken. "I applaud you for your excellent work." The Prime stated. He then looked to Ratchet, who then opened up a Ground Bridge. "This was overwhelming to you before, so if you would like to leave, then you are free to do so."
Drakken and Shego both looked to each other before looking back to Optimus and the rest of Team Prime and Team Possible. "We won't be going anywhere." Drakken stated. He then looked over towards the Cybertronian Schematics and smiled. "With the right engineering and research, your Cybertronian Technology could be known to be the greatest of all!" Drakken exclaimed.
Shego then walked over to Kim. "Hey, we stopped being villains before, so I see no harm in helping out Kimmie against these Decepticons." She stated. She then smiled and chuckled. "We're here to stay."
"Then I welcome you two to Team Prime." Optimus said.
"And to Team Possible." Kim stated, spreading her arms out as she welcomed them.
Drakken and Shego both smiled, knowing that they were off to a good start as Jack, Raf, Miko, Sierra, Kim and Ron started to help them around the Base.
Meanwhile, near an Energon Mine, Mirage began to inject some Energon into her body. "Curse those Autobots!" she exclaimed. "I can get my revenge on those humans once Lord Megatron takes care of the Autobots."
Just then, the sound of a jet started to fill the area. Mirage looked up as Circuit Breaker then flew in, hovering over the ground before she eventually got off and walked towards the Decepticon. "Mirage, the Decepticon Assassin, I presume?" Circuit Breaker asked as a grin emerged on her face.
"What's it to you?" Mirage then asked.
Josie Beller just chuckled and walked forwards. She blasted into thin air, revealing loads of Energon. "How would you like to become a member of MECH, the grand organization meant for Transformers and humans to bring humankind to its knees?" she offered.
Mirage gasped at this before she looked to Circuit Breaker with a grin of her own. "Consider it a deal." She stated, shaking hands with Circuit Breaker.
