Hello again, everyone! It's me, SuperHeroTimeFan, and I am finally back with another new chapter for another one of my stories, Transformers: Possibly Prime. This time, my excuse is the same. I had schoolwork to do, I spent time with my family, but I'll be sure to make up for it. Now, without further ado, please allow me to move onto my next chapter! Please be sure to review, rate, and as always, please be sure to enjoy!
Chapter 4: Apex Quandary
In the Autobot Base, Optimus Prime started to explain to both Monique and Jetfire about their dilemma. "Though it may not look like it, we Autobots are actually from the future, where all Cybertronians are living together on the reborn Planet of Cybertron after the threat of Unicron attempting to destroy our Home Planet vanished." Optimus explained.
"Megatron disbanded the Decepticons and goes into exile while Optimus sacrificed himself due to absorbing the AllSpark for the creation of new Cybertronian lives." Bumblebee then explained.
"I joined the Autobots during the Unicron crisis, and after Optimus sacrificed himself, we went back to Earth, where we attempted to track down a MECH Agent by the name of Circuit Breaker with a duplicate body of Optimus Prime called Nemesis Prime, but due to a Ground Bridge accident, we ended up here, and the rest is history." Knockout then said.
"We met the Autobots after they saved us, and now we're helping them find a way to get back to their own time." Ron explained further on.
Jetfire nodded. "I now understand that it is not the present Optimus Prime I am meeting, but the future one." Jetfire stated without regret or disappointment in his voice. "But past or present, I will do all I can to help you."
Monique, now with her new blaster placed on her back, stepped up and nodded. "Hey, Kim's always been there for me, so I'll help too," she stated, getting Ron to smile. "It will take some adjusting to, but I think that I can work with you all," she then paused before looking up to Jetfire while grinning. "Especially you, Jetfire." Monique then said.
Ron smiled as Optimus Prime walked up to them. "Then, I welcome you, Jetfire, and you, Monique Watkins, to Team Possible Prime."
The two saluted, now sure that they could help Team Possible Prime.
Just then, the monitor started to beep. "Ratchet, it's me, Kim," Kim's voice said.
Ratchet's eyes widened as he then ran over to the terminal and started to type away, as well as Drakken. "Kim, we're here." Ratchet said. "What is your mission status?"
"The mission's complete here, Doc," Kim replied. "By the way, Wade is sending you our coordinates. Do you think that you can Bridge us back to Base?"
"Of course," Ratchet replied. "I take it that whatever Dementor was planning with your Battlesuit is now over?"
"You can put it that way." Shego's voice then said dryly.
The Ground Bridge then opened up, revealing Miko in the Apex Armor, carrying Kim in her Battlesuit and Shego, both injured and worn out.
"What happened back there?" Optimus asked as he studied all three girls, Miko having surprised them all by her sudden appearance with them in the Apex Armor.
Kim and Shego were both set down before they both glared to Miko. "Let's just say that while we shut down Dementor's plans in Bavaria," Shego started out.
"We think that he might be starting a new one thanks to Miko." Kim said with both gratitude and dryness in her voice.
Miko looked around to everyone as she removed the Apex Armor, all sending her surprised looks. She let out a weak chuckle and simply waved to them, now seeing that she had a lot to explain to them.
"Okay," Miko started out. "Well, I'd better start from the beginning."
SIX HOURS EARLIER…
Kim and Ron both held hands as Rufus stood on Ron's shoulder. They could clearly see that everything was going to definitely work out.
Just then, Kim's Kimmunicator Wristwatch started to beep. Kim and Ron quickly let go of each other so that Kim could access it. "Who's calling?" Ron asked.
On the screen of the Kimmunicator then appeared an African-American girl with a red dress. She looked to Kim and Ron, gasping with happiness. "Hey there, guys!" she exclaimed.
"Monique!" Kim exclaimed with joy. "Wow, it's great to see you again!"
"Yeah!" Rufus then exclaimed.
Monique chuckled. "Great to see you too," Monique replied, looking to her friends. "You guys haven't changed a bit!" Monique exclaimed. "I had Wade patch me through so that I could talk to you." Monique then explained, getting Kim and Ron to smile more. "So, you two finish college yet?"
"Yep!" Ron exclaimed. He was about to tell Monique about how they got involved with the Autobots and Decepticons until they remembered that certain people can't know about them just yet. Kim rolled her eyes before Ron went on. "We've been dating and stopping crime like before!"
"Awesome!" Monique shrieked.
"So, how is your new job as official Owner of Club Banana?" Kim then asked, eager to hear how her friend was doing.
"It's going great!" Monique replied. "Just finished business in Tokyo and I'm heading back to Middleton to join you!" Monique went on happily. "Also, Kim, Ron, I managed to get the company to create more Mission Outfits for you to use. They say that they liked the design so much that they're going to keep making them. You'll never run out of Mission Clothes again!"
"Wow, Spankin'!" Kim exclaimed.
"And, I'm Coco Banana's jet, heading back right now!" Monique said. "Hope to see you soon. GTG, SYS – Got to go, see you soon!"
Kim and Ron both waved to Monique, in which she waved back before signing off.
"I can't believe this!" Ron exclaimed while Kim stuttered. "Monique's coming back!" he yelled out. He then stopped celebrating and started to think about their Autobot Friends and the threats of Circuit Breaker and the Decepticons. "Wait, so what should we do about you guys?" Ron then asked Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots.
"With luck, we can stay out of your friend's sight." Knockout said, walking around and bringing some more items he brought from the future.
Miko then squealed and ran over. "Okay, I have heard so much about your friend, Monique, and how much you three are BFF's!" Miko exclaimed, feeling like she was the happiest girl on the planet.
Kim chuckled at Miko. "Yeah," she said. "I'm sure that you have." Kim added on. She then raised her eyebrow as she looked to the fangirl-like Miko. "You know, you kinda remind me of my cousin, Jocelyn Possible, who we call Joss sometimes."
"Cool!" Miko exclaimed, feeling as if that were a compliment, causing Kim to roll her eyes. "So, when Monique comes, can I come with you guys and meet her?" Miko asked excitedly.
"Well," Kim and Ron both started out, not sure if they should really bring Miko along for this, especially since she seemed to be a huge fan of them, and that she could possibly very quickly blow their cover.
Just then, an alarm started to go off. "Optimus, I'm picking up a strange energy reading coming from high in the Bavarian Alps." Ratchet reported.
Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus then walked over. "Is the energy signature of Cybertronian origin?" Ultra Magnus asked.
Drakken shook his head. "No, according to your schematics, it matches no Cybertronian signature." He stated.
"That's right." Ratchet added on.
Kim and Ron both looked up to the screen, taking a good and close look at the coordinates of the large energy signature. "Hey, can we zoom in, see the location of the energy reading, if we can?" Ron asked.
Ratchet and Drakken both looked to each other and nodded. "On it." Drakken said, starting to zoom in and triangulate on the origin of the source.
Soon, an image of a large building with a ray of light emitting from the top of it, surrounded by fences and strangely, a small gift shop at the bottom, appeared.
"That's Professor Dementor's lair!" Kim exclaimed in surprise.
Smokescreen then turned to Kim, Ron, Shego and then Doctor Drakken. "Is he another villain who turned good?" The Autobot asked.
"Hardly!" Shego remarked. "Never even did anything good!" She added on.
"He's another active super villain." Ron simplified to everyone.
Kim then looked to her Kimmunicator. "Wade, hack into Dementor's systems, find out what he's up to, and give us the info by yesterday." Kim ordered.
Wade started to work fast at his computer, starting to check in on the systems. His eyes then widened with surprise. "Oh no." He said.
"What is it?" Ron asked.
Wade looked up to everyone. "It seems that when Ron and Larry had Kim's Battlesuit at different times, as well as Dementor for a temporary moment, Dementor was able to scan the Battlesuit's designs, and is trying to create Battlesuits of his own." Wade explained, showing the schematics on the big screen in the Autobot Base.
Kim growled and then looked towards Ron, who held his hands up in surrender. "Okay, okay, so technically, both times he almost gained control of the Battlesuit was my fault, but he made the schematics when you saved his 'cat'." Ron stated, doing air quotes as he said "Cat".
Kim was about to argue until she stopped. "Good points there." She replied, placing her hand to her chin.
"If these schematics were to fall into the wrong hands, then Dementor could use them for an army or himself!" Drakken exclaimed.
Kim and Ron then looked to each other with confusion before turning to Drakken and Shego. "Okay, why are you so interested all of a sudden?" Kim asked. "We thought you'd want schematics like these."
Shego was filing her nails as Kim spoke. "Look, Kimmie, if memory serves correctly, then I was on par with you when you wore the Battlesuit, and Drakken had that Lowardian, Warmonga, go up against you," Shego pointed out before she stopped filing her nails. "So technically, we could beat you even if you wore the Battlesuit." Shego explained.
Kim sighed and looked to Shego. "Once again, good points there." She complimented before turning over to the Autobot Field Medic. "Ratchet, Bridge us to Bavaria." Kim Possible ordered.
Ron then stuttered. "B-but what about me? Your partner/sidekick?!" He exclaimed.
"Humph! Yeah!" Rufus spat.
Kim walked over to Ron and placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. "In case Monique arrives, I need you to greet her for me." Kim explained. "After all, you're her friend too."
Ron's mouth formed an "O" shape as he nodded his head. "Oh, okay." He said with understanding. "Yeah, yeah, we can do that."
Kim smiled before Ratchet opened up the Ground Bridge, much to Drakken's chagrin. "Oh, I could have done that." He complained.
Shego rolled her eyes as the Ground Bridge opened up. She then looked to Kim. "On foot, right?" The former Team Go member asked.
"Right," Kim replied with a nod. "We need to be stealthy, after all."
Shego nodded as she and Kim both entered through the Ground Bridge and off to Bavaria.
A Ground Bridge soon appeared right in the Bavarian Alps, with Kim and Shego coming out in arctic clothing.
"Okay, so we find out what Dementor's planning, stop him, and then get the authorities, got it?" Kim told Shego.
Shego nodded. "I got it," Shego said. "Anything else?"
"Yeah," a voice then said. Kim and Shego's eyes immediately widened as they looked off to the side, seeing Miko in her own winter clothing. "Where do I fit in?"
"Miko?!" Kim and Shego both exclaimed incredulously.
Miko nodded before shivering, her own breath appearing in front of her. "Whoa, it's chilly here!" she exclaimed. "Never felt anything like this in Japan."
Kim ran up to Miko and got onto her knees to get to Miko's level. "Miko, what are you doing here?!" she asked. "You know what, don't bother telling us," Kim then said. "I'm calling Ratchet to reopen the Ground Bridge and send you back."
Kim then went to her Kimmunicator, but all that came out was static.
"I almost forgot that communications don't work so well here." Kim then said as she turned her Wristwatch Kimmunicator off.
"I wanted to come and experience the ultimate Kim Possible Experience!" Miko then exclaimed, thrusting her fist into the air and then pulling it down.
"Question," Shego then said as she ignited one of her hands. "Why?"
Miko sighed. "Okay, so while I was still in Japan, I was a huge fan of Kim, but I never got the chance to actually meet her, only know that she saved the world thousands of times and helped save the Nakasumi Toy Corporation," Miko started to explain. "And since I'm here, in the past, I want to at least have the honor of tagging along with Kim to find out what her Mission life is like!" Miko then exclaimed.
Kim and Shego both looked to each other, unsure of what to do. "Well, let us talk about it." Kim finally replied as she pulled Shego over to the side.
Miko watched with excitement, now being able to work with Kim for the first time.
"She's just a kid!" Kim exclaimed quietly. "I know I've been friendly with kids in the past, but this one is just like Joss all over again!"
"Your Southern Cousin?" Shego asked.
Kim nodded. "Maybe we should let her come along, find out how difficult it is to work on missions with me, and maybe she'll back off."
Shego started to think about it. Finally, she turned back to Kim. "Oh, alright," Shego finally said. "But she can't be extra weight!"
Kim nodded before she and Shego walked back to Miko. "We'll let you come along," Kim started out. "But you have to follow every one of our orders, no questioning, am I clear?" Kim then asked.
Miko nodded. "Deal," she replied back. "Now, let's get this party started!"
Kim and Shego both chuckled nervously before they all headed off towards Professor Dementor's lair at the top of the Bavarian Alps.
As the three girls were making their way up the hill, Miko looked to Kim and Shego and let out a smile, taking out her cellphone. She ran up alongside Kim and then placed her phone out in front of them, taking a picture of the two of them, much to Kim's surprise as the camera flashed.
"Um," Kim started out as she started to blink. "What's the Sitch with that?" Kim asked.
"Just want something to remember this adventure of ours by." Miko explained as she put her phone away.
Shego grinned to Kim, but her smile faded after Miko did the same with Shego, taking a picture of the two of them this time. Shego gasped and watched as Miko looked to her picture with happiness, causing Kim to grin back at Shego with snip.
Kim and Shego then came across a large hill. "Gonna have to grapple from here." Kim said as she aimed her Wristwatch Kimmunicator at the top of the hill. A Grappling Hook came from it, and she fired it to the top.
Shego then pressed a button on her belt, causing another Grappling Hook to appear. She fired it up as well before Miko then cleared her throat.
Kim turned around and gasped. "Oh, right," she said, remembering that Miko didn't have the same gear she had. "Hop on." Kim then said.
Miko smiled and got onto Kim's back. Kim then groaned as she dropped a bit. "Okay, what are you carrying with you?!" Kim said with a strained voice. "Something weighs like a ton on my back!"
Miko shrugged. "Well, I don't have a backpack, so I don't know." Miko replied back.
Shego rolled her eyes and held out her hand. "Okay, Princess," Shego said as she held her hand out. "We'll get up together." Shego then stated.
Kim nodded and grabbed a hold of Shego's hand before the three headed up the hill.
As Kim, Shego and Miko were going up the hill, Kim and Shego couldn't help but struggle. "Wow, something sure weighs a lot!" Shego exclaimed as she pulled Kim up.
"It will be Christmas by the time we get up there!" Kim then exclaimed.
"You know, Bulkhead and Arcee were once stuck together, but that was because of magnetism." Miko then said. "And Wheeljack once put a grenade on a Decepticon when he first came." Miko added on.
"Please don't remind me about times I was stuck to someone else," Kim then said. "If you know so much about me, then Bonnie and I were stuck together while climbing up this hill once." Kim added on, recalling her time when she was stuck with Bonnie.
"Okay, that I didn't know." Shego noted as she continued to climb.
"But I did." Miko then spoke up.
Shego rolled her eyes before she and Kim finally reached the top.
Kim and Shego both panted once they landed on the top of the hill, with Miko getting up to stretch. "Whew, that took longer than I thought!" Kim exclaimed as she started to straighten out her back while Shego lit up one of her hands in order to warm herself up.
"Okay, so aside from the climb, how much farther do we have to get to Dementor's secrets lair?" Miko asked as she finished stretching.
Shego looked towards a fenced-off castle and pointed a finger towards it. "That answer your question, junior?" Shego asked dryly. "I've known Dementor long enough to know every one of his hideouts."
Kim nodded. "I remember too." She said. "Okay, we just have to get in without getting caught, find the Battlesuit that we've been told about, destroy it, and get out." Kim said to Shego and Miko.
Shego and Miko both nodded as they followed Kim into the Lair of Professor Dementor.
As Kim and Shego headed off, Miko stopped and pulled something out from her jacket. It was one of the Cybertronian Relics that she used to help the Autobots fight off against the Decepticons during their time in 2014. It was grey with blue outlines on it, and it resembled a plate of some sort. Miko chuckled as she put the Relic back into her jacket before she then ran off after Kim and Shego, now halted at the fence.
Shego leapt over the fence with ease before Kim looked to Miko and grabbed her. Miko held on tight as Kim used her Grappler once again to get over the fence.
Kim and Shego then noticed Dementor's giant-sized hounds keeping guard inside of the fenced area. Shego chuckled and took out some dog treats, throwing them over towards the far side of the area, causing the dogs to yelp with excitement and run to go and get the treats.
Kim gave Shego a thumbs-up gesture, in which Shego replied back by silently nodding. The three girls then ran over towards Dementor's Lair up ahead.
At the Autobot Base, Bulkhead and Wheeljack were both doing their Wrecker sport together, known as Lobbing. They both threw the Lob Ball back and forth with each other, Sierra and Ron both watching.
"Interesting sport there." Sierra said as she oversaw the Lobbing.
"You know, I used to be the Runner-back for the Middleton Mad Dogs, but when I see this," Ron mused as he watched the game go on. "I have to admit, it kinda sorta rocks!"
Arcee chuckled as she walked over. "Lobbing was played amongst the Wreckers back on Cybertron." Arcee explained. "Every Wrecker knows it well."
Jack and Raf then walked over, chuckling a bit as they watched the sport go on as well before Jim and Tim joined them. "So, this is to enhance defense and survival skills, huh?" Ron asked.
"That's mostly the gist of it." Jack said while Raf nodded in agreement.
Just then, Bulkhead motioned for Wheeljack to stop. "What's going on, Bulk?" Wheeljack asked his fellow Wrecker.
"I wanted to see if Miko would have wanted to play, since she has the Apex Armor." Bulkhead explained.
Wheeljack nodded before the two Wreckers looked to their human friends watching from the sidelines. There was a moment of silence before Bulkhead cleared his throat. "Um, Miko?" He asked, hoping that Miko might have heard his offer.
Everyone then looked around, trying to find out where Miko was. "Miko?" Jack asked. "You around here?"
Inside of Professor Dementor's Lair, Kim, Shego and Miko all ran past the security defenses, evading every guard, solider, camera and turret until they reached the main room.
"Um, Bill," one of the henchmen serving Dementor spoke up. "If we destroy Kim Possible with your new Battlesuit, does that mean that you'll keep your promise to Hildegarde and allow me to serve as your right-hand man?" The henchman asked.
Dementor chuckled before he turned around towards the henchman. "Myron, this time, for sure, once I have my new Battlesuit up and running, and when Fräulein Possible is destroyed by my hand and her own Battlesuit, you will get your promotion, but I don't see that happening since you are not at your post!" Dementor then yelled.
"A bit harsh for a brother-in-law, isn't he?" Shego then asked Kim and Miko while in the shadows, hiding.
"That guy is Dementor's own brother-in-law?!" Kim exclaimed with disbelief. "I thought he was just the only henchman who goes by a name!" Kim then said.
Miko then looked to the screen Dementor was looking at. "Oh, man!" She whispered. "He's turning your Battlesuit into one crazy suit of armor!" Miko then said as she took out her phone. "You want to have that with your old Battlesuit or do you want to keep the original?" Miko then asked.
Kim looked to the Battlesuit specs that Dementor had on the screen. It looked just like her own, only with a red color and black and yellow lines covering it, as well as shoulder cannons.
"That's bad." Kim said. Her eyes then widened after hearing what Miko had just asked her. "What?!" She then exclaimed. "I don't want an Instrument of Destruction!" Kim then remarked.
Meanwhile, Dementor was looking to another screen of everything outside. He suddenly noticed that there were no guards at their posts. "Where are all of my henchmen?" Dementor asked with his German accent and an eyebrow raised.
"I called them back here." Myron then replied.
"WHAT?!" Dementor exclaimed in disbelief.
"For a good reason." Myron then said, reaching for Dementor's blaster at his side and then aiming it towards Dementor in his face.
"So, you decided to betray me?" Dementor asked as Myron kept the blaster aimed at him. "I don't know whether to be pleased or disgusted." He then remarked.
"I'm not aiming for you," Myron then said with a grin on his face. He then turned around and shot the blaster towards where Kim, Shego and Miko were hiding. "I'm aiming for them." He then quipped.
The three girls all gasped as the henchmen came into the room. "I'm afraid that you won't be leaving here, not that you've heard our plan." Myron retorted to Kim, Shego and Miko.
Kim, Shego and even Dementor looked to Myron in shock as he handed the blaster back to his brother-in-law. "Myron!" Dementor exclaimed with disbelief. "You knew that Fräulein Possible, Shego and that girl were hiding there all the time?!" Dementor exclaimed with his jaw wide open.
"It was meant to be a surprise." Myron replied back as he then took out his Power Stave and aimed it towards Kim, Shego and Miko.
Kim and Shego looked to each other before staring at Myron. "What gave us away?" Kim asked with her eyes narrowed at Dementor's brother-in-law.
"Cellphone waves and sound patterns coming from the hills." Myron said smugly.
Miko chuckled nervously. "Okay, so maybe taking those pictures wasn't such a good idea." Miko stated as she hid behind the wall.
"Got that right!" Kim exclaimed.
Dementor then turned his attention towards Miko. "Who is this?" He asked. "A new sidekick?"
"Try a Tag-Along Kid." Shego then said bitterly.
"Get them!" Myron ordered. "And that little girl too!"
Kim and Shego both assumed battle stances and charged at their opponents. "Miko, take cover!" Kim ordered as she grabbed a Power Stave and struck at one of the henchmen before kicking the henchman she stole the staff from.
Shego started to jab at all of the henchmen charging at her. She clashed plasma with electricity, knocking staffs away and soldiers out unconscious. Three henchmen struck at her, but she sliced her hand right through the staffs, landing bicycle kicks at the soldiers before blasting at another.
"Awesome!" Miko exclaimed as she took out her cellphone, starting to take pictures of Shego's battle.
Kim continued to use the staff she stole to fight off against the henchmen, knocking down four at a time. Seven soldiers started to slam their staffs down onto her, but Kim grabbed a second staff and clashed with all of them before grabbing the staffs they wielded and then throwing them at their chests.
Dementor looked to the battle before turning up Myron and nodding. "Make sure that they don't interrupt me." He ordered before saying, "Number One."
Myron nodded as Dementor handed him his blaster before entering a chamber.
Kim noticed this and charged at Dementor with her staffs, but Myron shot at her and clashed with her instead, managing to push her back. Kim thrust both of her staffs forwards, but Myron blocked them and then use his blaster to send her back. Kim gasped and deflected one blast with her staff before another one skimmed her shirt, burning a bit of it off.
Kim gasped when she saw this, but unintentionally left herself open for Myron to attack with his staff. Another part of her shirt was torn off before she was shot on the elbow.
Kim growled and removed her clothing, revealing her Battlesuit underneath her.
"Okay, cool!" Miko exclaimed as she redirected her camera phone from Shego to the battle Kim was now in.
Myron made no reaction and shot at Kim again, but she made a shield and blocks it, yet Myron continued to shoot. Kim then used her lacrosse arm to send the blast to the side before Myron continued to shoot again, Kim fighting back harder then ever. Myron brought his staff down on Kim, who used her Gauntlet Arm to clash with him. The two engaged in armed combat, neither one backing down.
Shego finished up with the henchmen she was facing before looking to Kim. Shego ran over and shot the blaster out of Myron's hands before Myron slashed at Kim again, this time, Kim breaking the staff.
"Just let us get to Dementor and you won't get hurt." Kim threatened.
Myron dropped his staff and held his hands up, but he let out a chuckle. "Oh, you'll get to Bill, alright," he said slyly. "But you're going to wish you didn't." He then quipped, stepping aside.
Kim, Shego and Miko all looked to see the chamber Dementor went in now start to open, a mechanical sound starting to sound off from it.
Soon, Dementor came out, now with his own Battlesuit armed on himself. He had gained a much more muscular look, as well as more dangerous. He let out a cackle as he stepped down and started to stretch his body. "My own Battlesuit is now complete!" Dementor exclaimed as he readied one of his cannons. He looked to Myron and chuckled. "Very well done, Bill." Dementor then said in an almost-friendly tone.
Myron nodded and stepped aside, letting Dementor get into a battle stance. "Come at me, Fräulein Possible!" Dementor yelled in madness.
"How about Kimmie stay back and let me do it?" Shego then asked, igniting her hands and sending a blast towards Dementor.
Professor Dementor stood still and let his Force Field surround him, protecting him from the blast. He then shot a missile from his cannon at Shego, quickly knocking her back.
Shego got back up and charged at Dementor and immediately lashed out at him, scarring his abdomen. She then struck at the rest of the body, not stopping until there were blood cuts everywhere.
Dementor just grinned and placed his hands on his hips, letting all of the scars heal.
Miko gasped when she saw this. "No way!" She exclaimed to herself.
Shego let out a gasp as well, stepping back. Dementor laughed and let another missile out, hitting Shego and pinning her to the wall behind her.
"Shego, you okay?" Kim yelled out.
Shego fell to the ground and gave a weak nod. "Go get him." Shego said as she started to feel weak in the knees.
Kim nodded back and charged at Dementor for an attack. Dementor calmly walked up to Kim with a grin on his face. "Finally, a challenge!" He exclaimed.
Kim dashed right at Dementor and sent a punch towards his face, but Dementor blocked it and sent a kick to Kim's side, causing Kim to dodge. Kim avoided the kick and twirled in the air, letting her Gauntlet come out.
Dementor then shot a missile at Kim. Kim attempted to send it back, but it shot right through her Gauntlet, cleaving it straight off. Kim's hand remained, and she managed to grow her Gauntlet back as well.
Dementor formed his own Gauntlet and charged at Kim, slashing down. Kim blocked the blade from the Gauntlet and slashed back, but Dementor managed to clash with her before slashing at her cheek. Kim let out a small shriek as she felt the cut. Kim struck back, striking at Dementor's elbow, but Dementor's body healed and he formed another Gauntlet on his left arm. With the two Gauntlets, he formed a large Cannon.
Kim looked to the Cannon with shock before it started to charge up. After ten seconds, the Cannon shot, sending Kim back into the wall where Miko was hiding.
"You wish to try that again, Fräulein?" Dementor then asked as he let his arms grow back to normal. "I am open for challenges, so try again. However, the outcome will be the same!" Dementor then hammed up.
Miko looked to Kim and Shego with worriment. She then looked inside of her jacket before looking to Dementor and narrowing her eyes at him. "Yo! Bucket Head!" She called out.
Dementor was laughing with Myron until they both heard her call out. "Ja, what is it, Tag-Along Kid?" He asked in an unimpressed tone.
"I accept your challenge." Miko then said as she reached into her jacket and walked up to Dementor with an angry look on her face.
Dementor and Myron both laughed at this as Kim looked up weakly. "Miko, don't do it!" Kim called out.
Miko didn't listen. She took out the Cybertronian Relic she brought with her and placed it on her chest, causing a bright light to appear.
"What the–?!" Kim exclaimed.
"Whoa!" Shego called out.
"Wait," Dementor said in a confused and worried tone. "That's not supposed to happen!"
Miko's arms and legs started to become more muscular as a fair amount of bulk appeared over her body. A helmet soon covered her head before Miko was now completely covered in her special weapon, the Apex Armor.
Kim and Shego both looked on in shock, as well as Dementor and even Myron.
"You said you were free to any challenge, right?" Miko asked as she clumped her hands together and bumped her fists. "You've got one!"
Dementor took some steps back as his henchmen started to come to. "Get her!" Professor Dementor ordered.
The henchmen all charged at Miko, slashing at her with their Power Staves. Miko just looked down to them like ants and spun around, knocking every one of the henchmen back.
Dementor looked to Miko with shock before he shot a missile at her. Miko held her hand up and caught the missile before sending it back, letting it explode on his computer.
Myron then charged at Miko with his staff and let out a battle cry, skating at Miko in the knee. Miko just swung her hand wide in front of her and threw Myron away, leaving only Dementor for her to take care of.
"What? What is this?!" Dementor yelled as he charged up his Cannon. He fired at Miko in an attempt to kill her, but Miko was able to withstand the blast as she walked towards Dementor, crushing his cannon before picking up Dementor himself. "No one's ever had this super-strong, bulletproof armor before!" Dementor started to complain. "What is this?!"
"This is the end!" Miko yelled, throwing Dementor towards the computer with the layouts for his Battlesuit. Dementor yelled as he was thrown into the computer, causing all data on the Battlesuit to get destroyed.
Miko started to wipe her arms as Kim and Shego got up and walked towards her. "Nice moves!" Shego exclaimed in surprise.
"Thanks." Miko replied back. "I've had this Apex Armor and those moves for quite some time now."
"And you just had to show us now?" Kim asked sarcastically. She chuckled. "Not too shabby."
Miko smiled once again, but she then noticed the sound if Dementor groaning behind them. "Come on, we'd better get going." Miko said to Kim and Shego.
The two nodded, but fell to the ground due to the amount of damage they had taken on. "I've gotcha." Miko said as she reached out her hands and caught the two.
"Give me that armor!" Dementor called out as he shot another missile. "Hand it over!"
Miko ignored the Professor and sent the missile to the side, creating a hole in the wall for her, Kim and Shego to escape through.
As soon as the three were out, Kim activated her Wristwatch Kimmunicator and immediately called back to Base. "Ratchet, it's me, Kim." Kim called back to the Autobot Base.
After a while of no response, Kim contacted Wade. "Wade, we're done here." Kim called. "Can you send Ratchet our coordinates for a Ground Bridge?"
Wade looked to Kim and nodded. "You've got it." He replied back, starting to type away.
Ratchet's voice then came through. "Kim, we're here." Ratchet said. "What is your mission status?"
"The mission's complete here, Doc," Kim replied. "By the way, Wade is sending you our coordinates. Do you think you can Bridge us back to Base?"
"Of course," Ratchet replied. "I take it that whatever Dementor was planning with your Battlesuit is now over?"
"You can put it that way." Shego then said in a dry voice as she rolled her eyes at Miko.
In a matter of minutes, a Ground Bridge appeared in front of the three females. Miko carried Kim and Shego and then walked into it, heading back to the Autobot Base.
The Ground Bridge then opened up inside of the Autobot Base, revealing Miko in the Apex Armor, carrying Kim in her Battlesuit and Shego, both injured and worn out.
"What happened back there?" Optimus asked as he studied all three girls, Miko having surprised them all by her sudden appearance with them in the Apex Armor.
Kim and Shego were both set down before they both glared to Miko. "Let's just say that while we shut down Dementor's plans in Bavaria," Shego started out.
"We think that he might be starting a new one thanks to Miko." Kim said with both gratitude and dryness in her voice.
Miko looked around to everyone as she removed the Apex Armor, all sending her surprised looks. She let out a weak chuckle.
PRESENT…
Kim then looked over to Monique. "Monique! You made it!" Kim exclaimed happily. She then looked to the talk red and white Autobot standing next to her. "I take it that you already know?" Kim then asked.
Monique nodded. "I helped take down a Decepticon who tried to give away the Autobots' Location here in Middleton," Monique said as she showed Kim her new blaster before gesturing to the new Autobot. "By the way, this is Jetfire, saved me from that Decepticon earlier today."
"Pleasure to meet you." Jetfire said as he sent a salute.
"Likewise." Kim replied back.
Miko looked to everyone looking at her after she finished explaining what had happened before getting out of the Apex Armor.
"You defeated Dementor while he was using a Battlesuit?" Drakken asked incredulously.
Miko nodded. "Even destroyed those schematics he stole." Miko added on.
Ron then cleared his throat. "Um, Miko, I hate to rain on your parade here, but in the past, our past, if you know what I mean, Dementor's always had a knack for getting the perfect weapon to make him unstoppable." Ron said.
Kim and Monique turned to Miko and nodded. "No offense, Miko, you did save us, but I bet that Dementor is getting obsessed with the Apex Armor after seeing you use it." Kim stated.
Miko sighed. "Look, I was only trying to help after Dementor managed to defeat you two without breaking a sweat!" Miko exclaimed. "I didn't know it would cause some trouble!"
"As much as I hate to admit it, Miko," Optimus started out. "While your actions were brave, they may have caused some trouble."
Jack then stepped up. "Optimus is right," Jack stated. "Using Cybertronian tech in front of a mad scientist isn't very wise."
Sierra nodded. "I'm still new to the whole Autobot thing myself, but using the Apex Armor is like going on drugs," Sierra said. "You have to have a limit on how you're going to use it."
Miko sighed as she put the Apex Armor away. "Well, I think I can give this a break for now." Miko said as she started to put the Apex Armor down next to a pile of Cybertronian Relics that they had. "And I promise not to take it for granted ever again." Miko added on. "Sorry."
Bulkhead then stepped up. "Hey, Miko, don't be so hard on yourself." Bulkhead scolded. "I mean, Cybertronian Technology is at least light years away." Bulkhead stated. "And even of Dementor could find a way to make his own, I doubt it could even work properly."
Miko nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I guess you're right." Miko replied back.
Back at Dementor's lair in Bavaria, Dementor was looking over security footage of the battle where Miko had used the Apex Armor for the first time against him.
"This Miko girl possesses powerful armor," Dementor said to himself as he saw the Apex Armor in action. "Stronger than Fräulein Possible's Battlesuit and my own! I must have it!" He then exclaimed loudly.
"I think I can help you with that." A female voice then said.
Dementor's eyes widened as he activated a shoulder cannon from his Battlesuit and spun around. He was about to fire until he saw Circuit Breaker standing in the room with Mirage by her side.
"Shego? Is that you?" Dementor asked with surprise.
"I prefer the name 'Mirage'." Mirage replied back.
Circuit Breaker chucked as she then walked up to Dementor with her fingers wriggling. "Mirage and I couldn't help but notice your… dilemma with Cybertronian Technology like the Apex Armor used against you." Josie stated. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Circuit Breaker, leader of Neo MECH." Circuit Breaker then said.
"What is this Cybertronian Technology you speak of?" Dementor asked with an eyebrow raised.
"The Cybertronian Technology is advanced science far beyond our own," Circuit Breaker started to explain. "There are Alien Races called Autobots and Decepticons who are in complete knowledge on his to use that Tech. This kind of knowledge must be used in the right hands," Josie said as she gave a look to Dementor. "With the knowledge of Cybertron on your side, then you'd be unmatched, able to take down anyone who would dare to stand in your way!" Circuit Breaker then exclaimed.
Dementor raised an eyebrow once again. "It sounds to me like you are proposing a deal," Dementor said as his shoulder cannons lowered. "Tell me, Circuit Breaker, what must I do to gain this knowledge and the means to wield it?"
Circuit Breaker chuckled and snapped her fingers, revealing the offline Body of Blackout. "Use your science to bring this Decepticon back to life." Josie said slyly. "I will decide your worthiness for Neo MECH… after you succeed." Circuit Breaker then said.
Mirage grinned before she leaned back, now transforming into her Vehicle Mode.
Dementor gasped when he saw this before Circuit Breaker leapt onto Mirage. Professor Dementor then watched as the two women headed out of his base and into a Ground Bridge.
Dementor then looked to Blackout's body before looking to see that his head was damaged. "If I can bring this Decepticon to life again, I might have more power than the Battlesuit and that Armor combined." Dementor said thoughtfully. He then grinned. "This will be my greatest invention!" Dementor then exclaimed as he began to create layouts for his new project.
Soon, night came. The henchmen were back on guard, Myron was keeping watch, but Dementor remained in his room. Like the Battlesuit, the Professor had become obsessed with this new discovery of robotic life.
"This Decepticon used to have life and great power," Dementor said to himself as he finished his schematics. "What I will soon give him shall bring that back!" He then exclaimed, running over towards a shed.
Dementor soon had his schematics laid out. On his blueprints was an image of a large head with a sharp back to it. The front had a visor shaped like a "T", and a large horn came from the top of the head. It gave a terrorizing look to it as Dementor started to build and upgrade Blackout, never resting for the entire night.
From a distance away, LaserBeak was watching everything. Having recorded enough, he flew off.
In the Nemesis, Commander Starscream was pacing around. "First Sideways, then Mirage, now Blackout?!" He exclaimed in disbelief. "What in the name of Cybertron is even going on down there?!" Starscream demanded as the Past Soundwave remained mute.
All of a sudden, LaserBeak flew back into the Decepticon Warship, landing on Soundwave and causing Starscream to look to him. "What is it?" He asked.
Soundwave started to repeat what LaserBeak heard and saw Dementor do while spying on him. "This Decepticon used to have life and great power. What I will soon give him shall bring that back!" Soundwave said in Dementor's own voice.
Starscream narrowed his optics at Soundwave with bitterness. "Who would dare to desecrate the Decepticons?" Starscream asked with suspicion.
Soundwave said nothing and brought up a picture of Dementor while he was working on Blackout.
"Humans?" Starscream asked in disbelief.
Down on Earth the next morning, Ratchet and Drakken were hard at work at the computers. While Ratchet was working on new Energon for the Autobots to use, Drakken was working on his own project. On his screen was a layout for a shield with Cybertronian markings on it. Drakken's eyes were now starting to get heavy, eventually closing them.
Before Drakken could go to sleep, Shego walked over and caught him. "Stay awake there, Doc." Shego said as she put Drakken back onto his feet. "We still need you here."
Drakken nodded as he placed some electrodes on his forehead. "Thank you, Shego," Drakken said as he soon got back to work. "I've been at this for so long that I've hardly had enough time to sleep."
Ratchet looked down and sighed. "Doctor Drakken, you are allowed to take a break if you need it." Ratchet stated. "I think everyone needs some rest right now." Ratchet then said as he looked to the rest of their human friends, now sleeping.
Jim and Tim were sound asleep, a laptop on both of their laps.
Raf was sleeping inside of Bumblebee, his glasses off and his laptop on his own lap as well.
Kim and Ron soon came in, as well as James Possible. The rest of the Autobots were at different areas of the Base, working on their own things.
Monique came in as well, coming from the top window inside of Jetfire. The Autobot let Monique out as she made her way down on the slide that was put into the Base as well.
"Any word from Dementor lately?" Monique asked as she picked up her Blaster and put it onto her sling.
Kim shook her head. "Wade hasn't said anything lately." Kim replied. She then looked over to Miko and let out a smile. "But I have to admit, if it weren't for Miko's quick save, Shego and I probably wouldn't be here right now." Kim stated.
Ron nodded. "I'd hate to be living without you, KP." Ron then said.
Optimus then walked up. "I understand that things in your timeline are different than our own, but our Human Allies can prove to be supportive to us when we are faced with adversities." The Prime stated.
"I understand, Optimus," Kim said. "In your time, we must have already defeated every villain, leaving only Decepticons for you to battle." Kim then pointed out. "I feel like we're all now part of something greater."
Optimus nodded. "Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing." Optimus stated. "It was fate that brought us together as a team, not just time."
Kim smiled at this before the screen Ratchet was working on started to spark. "What's going on, Ratch?" Arcee asked as she walked up.
"I'm not sure." Ratchet replied back. "There's something wrong with the systems all of a sudden."
"Let's see what we can do about it." Smokescreen then said.
"Time to get to work." Knockout then said as he formed a torch from his arm.
Ultra Magnus then held up his arm. "Wait," he ordered. "Something's now coming through."
Wheeljack looked to the screen with confusion. "A short-circuit, maybe?" He asked. "We've never experienced anything random like that before."
Just then, the screen cleared up, showing Blackout flying over Middleton.
"Blackout?!" Monique asked. "I thought I killed him!"
Everyone then watched as Blackout landed, revealing upgrades and a new head.
"That can't be possible!" Jetfire exclaimed with shock. "You shot his head off!"
"I know!" Monique exclaimed. "How'd he get a new one?"
Wade then started to call as the Kimmunicator started to ring. "What's the Sitch, Wade?" Kim asked. "We're seeing a thought-to-be dead Decepticon roaming in Middleton, and we don't even know how he came back."
"I'm running a scan on Blackout now," Wade then said as he brought up an image of Blackout. After a while, his eyes started to widen with surprise. "No way!" Wade then exclaimed.
"What is it?" Kim asked.
"I found out who's inside of Blackout!" Wade stated. "Showing you video feed now."
Everyone looked to the big screen to see Wade zoom in on Blackout's head, showing Dementor inside of it.
"Professor Dementor is controlling a Decepticon?!" Bumblebee exclaimed with disbelief.
"Okay, this is more than meets the eye." Kim said, now in awe.
Everyone then watched as Dementor started to shoot missiles all around. "Tremble before me!" Dementor called out. "My new Headmaster Unit combined with this Decepticon shall bring Middleton to its knees! No one will stand in my way!"
"Who told him about the Decepticons?" Miko exclaimed as she ran to see the screen up close.
"Only one human had knowledge about us, and she's a part of MECH." Bulkhead then said.
"Circuit Breaker." Optimus then said.
Optimus looked to the Autobots and narrowed his optics. "We have to stop Dementor before he realizes the power he can't control," Optimus said to everyone. "Everyone, prepare to Transform and Roll Out." He then ordered.
Everyone nodded before the Autobots started to enter their Vehicle Modes. Kim and Ron both got into the Sloth while Monique climbed into Jetfire as Jack, Raf and Miko went into Bumblebee, Bulkhead and Arcee respectively.
Sierra climbed into Wheeljack before all of the Autobots started to head off.
"Jetfire, we are relying on you for air reconnaissance." Optimus said to Jetfire over the communications systems. "Get downtown first, and weaken Dementor until we get there."
"We're on it, Optimus!" Monique called out as she and Jetfire started to make their way downtown, seeing Dementor causing more and more destruction.
"Autobots!" Dementor called out. "Face me, or witness the destruction of this city!" Dementor yelled out in madness.
"Fire missiles." Monique said to Jetfire from the sky.
"You've got it!" Jetfire called back before shooting misfiled down towards Dementor as the destruction raged on.
Dementor heard the sound of the missiles and saw them coming towards him. He twirled his helicopter blades and slashed them apart as Monique came out of Jetfire to let him transform.
"An Autobot already?" Dementor asked as he let out a chuckle. "Perfect!"
Monique just shot at Dementor with her blaster as Jetfire started to shoot at Dementor as well.
Dementor charged towards the two as Kim and Ron both flew into the scene, riding the Sloth. Kim leapt out and revealed her Battlesuit before she slammed her fist onto the Headmaster Unit.
"How do you like that?!" Kim quipped. She let out a chuckle, but it faded away as she saw that her attack did no effect. "No!" Kim said quietly to herself.
"That didn't even hurt!" Dementor remarked as Kim leapt onto the ground.
"This will!" Arcee then yelled as she and Jack rode towards Dementor. Dementor gasped once he saw them. Jack leapt off and onto the roof where Monique was before Arcee transformed and blasted down on Dementor.
Dementor just laughed and sent missiles towards Arcee, causing her to fall to the ground.
The rest of the Autobots then arrived, Knockout and Wheeljack being the first to attack as soon as they transformed into Robot Mode. They sent blasts towards Dementor as the rest of the Autobots then started to strafe him down.
People hiding inside of the buildings all looked to see the battle go on. Some of them started to take out their cameras and take pictures.
Miko got out of Bulkhead and looked to her Apex Armor. Bulkhead soon transformed into Robot Mode and loaded his blaster.
"What should I do?" Miko asked herself. "I told everyone I'd give Apex Armor a break, but Dementor might get layouts for it like he did with Kim's Battlesuit." Miko said to herself nervously.
"Dementor, cease this madness!" Ultra Magnus exclaimed as he shot at Blackout.
"You'll have to make me, Autobot!" Dementor remarked as the blasts bounced off of his Decepticon armor. "What Circuit Breaker has shown me will lead me to victory and your demise!" Dementor then called out.
Bumblebee started to fire at Dementor alongside Smokescreen from the side. Dementor looked to them and shot a missile their way, but they managed to dodge the attack and fire back once again.
Shego then got out from the Sloth from above and slammed her fists down onto the Headmaster Unit. Dementor looked to Shego before she sent a blast towards the Unit, backflipping away afterwards.
Wheeljack charged towards Dementor and slashed at him with his swords, but Dementor used the blades equipped on Blackout to clash with the Wrecker, knocking him back.
"Wheeljack, hang in there! I'm coming!" Kim them said as she charged towards Dementor with her Gauntlet formed.
"I'm taking you down!" Dementor yelled back, shooting a laser bolt towards Kim.
Kim used her Gauntlet to send the blast back before landing a dropkick down onto the Headmaster Unit. Kim jumped off and attempted to rip open the Headmaster until she was blasted away.
"No!" Ron exclaimed. He then set the Sloth on autopilot before glowing blue and jumping out, bashing with Dementor and sending him back. Ron backflipped away and then sent a blast at Dementor, but the Professor pushed Ron away and knocked him into a building, where Jetfire managed to catch him and place him on the roof with Monique and Jack, where Monique and Jetfire started to blast at Dementor in tandem while Optimus started to head towards where Kim was falling.
Optimus then transformed and caught Kim. "Are you okay?" Optimus asked.
Kim nodded. "How did this Circuit Breaker person even manage to coerce Dementor into striking a deal like this with her?" Kim asked. "Are she and MECH really that powerful?" Kim added on.
"I do not know about Circuit Breaker myself, to be honest," Optimus replied back as he took out the Star Saber. "But if she has managed to corrupt humans like Dementor this far, then we now know the full power of her manipulation." Optimus Prime then said. "I will try to take on Dementor long enough for you to try and get the civilians out of the area." Optimus said, charging towards Dementor with his Star Saber in hand.
Kim nodded before looking to see Miko next to the sidewalk, looking to her Apex Armor.
"I shouldn't use it." Miko stated as Kim started to walk over. "But I want to help too." She added on before finally turning her attention to Kim. "What should I do?"
Kim looked to Miko first before looking to Optimus walk towards Dementor with the Star Saber.
"Ah," Dementor said with satisfaction. "So, you are the great Optimus Prime, am I correct?" Dementor asked as he readied another sword.
"Dementor, you are toying with unfamiliar forces," Optimus warned, ignoring his remark. "Stand down, now!"
"Never!" Dementor yelled, now charging at Optimus.
Optimus held up the Star Saber, clashing with Dementor head-on. Dementor pushed the Autobot leader back and struck again, but Optimus sent a blast from his Gatling Gun and sent Dementor back this time. Dementor angrily sent some missiles towards Optimus, but using the Star Saber, Optimus slashed them all to ashes.
Dementor got back up and flew into the air, sending missiles down onto Optimus, who flew out of the way and shot Dementor while in the sky. The two sent blasts towards each other, their forces equal, before flying back down. Before resuming the fight, Optimus looked back to Kim and nodded, as if he were trying to send her a message.
Kim nodded back as she looked down to Miko. "Miko, there are times when we have to do the wrong things for the right reasons." Kim started to explain. "I was using my Battlesuit so much that I forgot what makes me Kim Possible." Kim said, getting Miko to look to her.
"What do you mean?" Miko asked curiously.
"My Battlesuit's not meant to be used for anything trivial or simple," Kim explained. "But from what I've been told about you and the Apex Armor, you didn't do that, you only used it for the most dire of circumstances," Kim said. "Optimus said that fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing," Kim then said with a smile. "Choose your fate. Choose it well." Kim finished up as she smiled to Miko in encouragement.
Miko nodded as she sent another smile back. Slowly getting up, Miko placed the Apex Armor onto her body, running over towards the fight to help as the rest of the Autobots started to recover and charge in as well.
Everyone was now getting out of their homes, watching the battle with interest.
Optimus and Dementor clashed blades with each other before Bumblebee, Knockout and Smokescreen provided some fire. Dementor gasped when he saw this and was about to shoot until Arcee dashed in and sent an underhand punch towards Blackout's jaw.
Professor Dementor then growled and tried to block the attack, but he was then interrupted by twin punches sent by Bulkhead and Wheeljack from behind, followed soon after by a blast from Ultra Magnus.
Jetfire flew into the air and fired upon Dementor, causing him to lose his focus. "No fair!" Dementor exclaimed.
"Neither is this!" Miko then exclaimed, sending a punch at Dementor and knocking him back as Shego blasted one of the arms on Blackout off.
Optimus then ran in and swung the Star Saber wide, as well as Ron kicking in the air, followed by Monique shooting from her blaster. All attacks made impact with the Blackout Drone, causing it to fall to the ground, lifeless once again.
"No, no!" Dementor exclaimed as he tried to get the systems back up and running. "This can't be happening!"
"Oh, it's happening, alright!" Kim exclaimed, grabbing Dementor. When Dementor saw Kim, she was back in her normal Mission Clothes, grinning at Dementor as she then tossed him towards a fire hydrant.
At that moment, everyone started to cheer. The Autobots, Team Possible, Jack, Raf, Miko and Sierra looked all around them to see a large crowd that had gathered, all now cheering on the heroes.
"So much for being Robots in Disguise." Sierra stated as she looked around.
"Should we get away?" Knockout asked.
Optimus shook his head. "We are now welcomed as heroes," he stated. "Our honor shall protect the World and this timeline for as long as we live."
Kim nodded. "I couldn't have said it better myself." She quipped, waving her hand to everyone.
While Team Possible Prime was enjoying their praise, Circuit Breaker appeared, grabbing Dementor and then walking away into a Ground Bridge.
Later on, in an unknown location, Dementor started to come to. When he woke up, he saw Circuit Breaker and Mirage standing in front of him. He groaned as he started to get back up. "I regret to say that I have failed." Dementor said. "Blackout was only operational again for a moment before I was defeated."
Circuit Breaker chuckled and shook her head. "Professor of little faith," she said in a sly voice. "You may have failed to destroy the Autobots, but you have proved yourself to us." Josie stated.
Dementor looked in surprise before Circuit Breaker grinned. "Your success has now gained you the right to become a part of Neo Mech." Circuit Breaker then said.
Dementor grinned. "So, where do I start?" he asked evilly.
Circuit Breaker cackled. "This will be the dawning of a new era." Josie said, her eyes shining in the darkness.
