Disclaimer: Hey AK here. I'm here with the final chapter of the first installment of the AutoKnight series.

Dash: The final chapter. I can't believe it. You've come a long way AK.

Violet: Yeah, but what's going to happen?

Me: You got to read to find out. But this chapter is going to need a recap. I don't own the Incredibles or Transformers. Just Trevor Bauer. Now enjoy the final chapter.

Chapter 7: Ironhide

Previously on the AutoKnights…..

A Decepticon known as Shockwave came down to Earth from Cybertron with one mission, to find and kill Optimus Prime. After transforming into his robot mode, Optimus then started to engage Shockwave in a fight. Optimus seemed to have the upper hand but Shockwave soon turned the tide of battle in his favor. When he fired the death blow to Optimus, Violet shielded Optimus with a force field but the amount of force on the field was too much for her. Shockwave then fired his gun at the ground Violet was standing on and now she's on the verge of death. Shockwave now has them cornered at gunpoint. Will the Incredibles and Optimus survive? Find out now.

*******

Shockwave's laser cannon was now fully charged. Before firing, he took a long good look at all the humans who were now huddled around the severely injured Violet. Shockwave kept wondering to himself why Violet saved Optimus knowing that it would probably risk her own life. Shockwave then stalled no more as he pointed to the group of humans.

"SAY GOOD-BYE HUMANS!!" Shockwave yelled.

But just before he pulled the trigger, a very bright light began to shine. Everyone turned their heads to see where it was coming from. Even Shockwave wasn't paying attention. But Optimus was. He took out his blasters and shot Shockwave in the very same place he kicked him not too long ago causing Shockwave to fall backwards and fire his laser into the air. Then the light seemed to get less bright as the small object giving off the light had started to approach them. Optimus pulled out Teletraan for now the signal on it was going crazy.

"It's the ring." Optimus said very happily.

But no one else managed to smile for they were still focused on Violet.

"I wonder who it belongs to." Dash said.

"Well the ring does have a mind of its own." Optimus replied. "So it must have made a decision. But who?"

His answer soon came to him as the tiny glowing object got closer. It passed Optimus and it passed Dash. It stopped right in front of Violet. When it stopped, the ring glowed brighter and all of Violet's wounds had started to disappear. Violet opened her eyes quickly got up.

"Vi, how do you feel?" Helen asked her daughter who was now standing up.

"I feel great." Violet replied. "But what is this little glowing thing in front of me?"

Optimus smiled. "Grab it and you'll see."

Violet listened and enclosed her hand around the object. When she did, the light stopped and she opened her hand to see she was now holding a ring almost identical to the one Trevor wore. Except the stone had no color.

"Does this mean I'm an AutoKnight?" Violet asked.

Optimus simply replied, "Yes."

"But why me?" Violet asked thinking she was not worthy.

"Violet," Optimus began. "What you did to save me back there was something that made you the worthiest out of all of us to possess the power in that ring. Trust me. Your worthy."

Violet smiled and took off her glove to put on the ring.

"Why isn't there any color in the stone?" Helen asked.

"She has to find a disguise. Violet put on the ring and scan a vehicle you like."

Violet was confused. "Um…OK." She said not knowing what to do.

Violet put on the ring and something automatically happened. The stone started to glow again, but so did Violet's eyes. Here eyes were glowing white. No one could even see her pupils.

"What's going on?" Violet asked a little freaked.

"You have to find a disguise. Hot Rod told me about this. Right now you see things like Shockwave does, or like I did when I was in my robot mode."

Optimus was right. Right now, Violet could see things she thought would never see. She saw gauges wherever she looked as if her eyes had become a computer screen.

"How do I find a disguise?" Violet asked.

"Just look for any vehicle you like and scan it. The rest you will know how to do by yourself." Optimus answered.

Violet nodded her head and began looking around for any car that interested her. But then she laid eyes on a black Nissan Vanette and scanned it. When she was done scanning the vehicle, her eyes stopped glowing and she looked at her hand to see that the stone in her ring was now the same color black as the vehicle she just scanned.

"So now what?" Violet asked.

Optimus smiled. "Shout out the words."

Violet smiled and raised her right hand into the air. "AUTOKNIGHT TRANSFORM!!"

Her ring had begun to do the same thing Optimus's ring had done. It was melting all over her entire body. Even her head. When the melting stopped, the metal molded itself into place and took on the form of an outfit that looked exactly like what Optimus was wearing. Only hers was all black. And her hero mask was gone.

"IRONHIDE!!" She called out.

Optimus was now amazed that he was not the only AutoKnight now. "Ironhide. I like that name."

Ironhide looked back at him. "Well get used to hearing it." She said. Ironhide then closed her eyes and concentrated. "Let's see, weapons system, defense system, robot mode, vehicle mode, looks like its all her." She said as hatches were opening and closing all over her suit.

Bob, Helen, and Dash were now staring at Ironhide in complete disbelief. They could not believe that this was the same person lying on the ground in front of them about to die. Dash was a little mad he didn't get the ring.

Shockwave had just now gotten up again and was surprised to find that there was another AutoKnight standing next to Optimus.

"So now there are two of you?" He said angry. "Ha! Well I hope you feel as if you've increased your odds because you really haven't. I mean a girl? HA!"

Now Ironhide was pissed. "Who are you calling a girl?" She said as two giant hatches on both of her sleeves opened up.

Out of the hatches, came two giant energy cannons that were even a little bigger than the guns Optimus had. The right one was glowing orange on the inside. And her left cannon was glowing light blue inside. Ironhide whipped her arms that made that cannons whirl around for two seconds and then locked into place and charged up.

Ironhide then pointed her arms at Shockwave. "I liked you better when you were on the ground." She said as she fired her two giant cannons one by one. Two giant energy-covered projectiles, one light blue and one light orange, flew and hit Shockwave in the stomach, forcing him to the ground yet again. Ironhide smirked as she lowered her arms.

Optimus and the Incredibles just looked at her with shock at her power.

"Damn." Was all Optimus had to say.

But before anything else could be said, the sound of an engine could be heard. Out of the smoke where Shockwave landed, a purple Mazda RX-8 zoomed out and headed right towards the humanoids.

"Guys get out of here!" Ironhide commanded her family,

The Incredibles just stood there not believing that their daughter had to be the one to take care of the current situation.

"GO DAMMIT!!" Ironhide screamed.

The Incredibles actually listened this time and ran for cover.

"Good luck!" They all shouted as they were running away.

When they were finally out of sight, Ironhide and Optimus turned towards the vehicle Shockwave.

"Let's see how you do when there are no innocent people to hurt!" Optimus said as he took out his two energy blades.

Ironhide readied her cannons again as Shockwave came zooming towards them in vehicle form. When he was a few yards away, both Optimus and Ironhide jumped out of the way in different directions. Optimus slashed him at the sides leaving two small parallel scratches. And Ironhide fired her cannons at Shockwave as he sped by, but they didn't seem to do much.

"Dammit! His armor is too strong!" Ironhide said.

"I know." Optimus said back. "But his under armor is not as strong."

"How are we supposed to get a clear shot at his under armor if we can't even get him to flip over?"

"There's gotta be something we can use."

"Yeah like what?"

Optimus looked around to if anything around them could help, but there was nothing as far as he could see. At least not in the direction he was presently looking. He then looked over to where he crashed into the ground earlier. He noticed that the ground was dented a lot, but he noticed one small area that was formed into a ramp. Optimus smiled as a light bulb went on in his head.

"I got it! Ironhide come here." Optimus said as Ironhide walked over.

Optimus then whispered his plan into here ear so Shockwave couldn't make anything out from a long distance. As Optimus explained his plan further, Ironhide's smile grew larger. When Optimus was finished, Ironhide agreed with the plan and went off to do her part in it. Optimus then transformed into his Peterbilt 260 form and went off to get ready to do his part.

Shockwave was still speeding through the city blasting every building he could. But luckily there were no people around to get hurt. Shockwave was going town a long straight road when Ironhide walked out into the middle of it and started firing at him.

Shockwave skidded to a halt. "Who do you think you are, human? I should just finish what I started with you."

Ironhide smirked at him. "First, I'm an AutoKnight, and second, if you want to finish me, then you'll have to catch me."

Ironhide turned the other way and her robe transformed into an exact replica of the Nissan Vanette she scanned earlier. Only in the place where the Nissan logo should be, there was the Autobot or now AutoKnight insignia. Ironhide sped off as Shockwave gave chase.

"Optimus, the plan is going perfectly. Are you ready over there?" Ironhide's voice came from Optimus's wrist communicator.

"I'm all set over here, Ironhide. I've just put in the support structures for the ramp. Bring him on over."

Ironhide's voice went out and she turned her vehicle form back onto the long straight road that led to the ramp. Shockwave was completely unaware about what was about to happen.

Optimus was at the intersection a few streets down on the other side of the ramp when he saw Ironhide approaching. A few seconds later, him in his vehicle mode started to zoom towards them. First, Ironhide went first off the ramp and into the air and Shockwave followed her five seconds after. At the same time Ironhide was coming down from her jump, Optimus was about to collide into her. But just before they did hit each other, Optimus transformed into his human mode and slid on his back under Ironhide as she landed. But Shockwave was still in the air. As Optimus was still sliding, he took out his blasters and pointed them at the only side of Shockwave he could see. His underside. He fired both of his guns twice and each gun had two direct hits. The plan worked perfectly.

As Shockwave made his landing, it was not so smooth. The impact from the blaster bullets had caused Shockwave to tilt in the air and do a nosedive right smack into the street. Optimus got up and Ironhide transformed back into her human mode. They went over and high fived each other for a job well done. They then realized they had to finish off Shockwave once and for all, so they used the extra strength they got from their rings and dragged Shockwave in his dented vehicle form to the open area park.

On their way to the park, the Incredibles poked out their heads from behind an ally and saw the two AutoKnights dragging a wounded Decepticon along the road. They all got big smiles on their faces and ran over to them. Helen was hugging her daughter very tightly while Bob and Dash were high fiving and bumping fists with Optimus. They soon continued their walk. Along the way, many more people saw them walking and started following them and cheering for them. Soon there was a mini parade led by Optimus, Ironhide, Bob, Helen, and Dash. When they reached the park, the people following formed a circle around Shockwave that had a diameter of about 150 feet. Optimus and Ironhide got closer and drew out their weapons.

"How?" Shockwave managed to say. "How could I have been defeated by humans?"

Optimus and Ironhide looked at each other, than back at Shockwave. "The people standing behind us are humans." Ironhide stated. "Were not."

"What are you?" Shockwave asked.

Optimus and Ironhide pointed their guns at him.

"Were the AutoKnights." They both said as they fired their giant guns at Shockwave's underside.

When the bullets hit, there was a large explosion and Shockwave was but a memory.

When the smoke finally cleared, everyone looked around and noticed that Optimus and Ironhide were gone. Everyone present turned their heads to try and find them. The Incredibles lost sight of them too. That is until they heard a voice call to them.

"Hey Bob, over here!" the voice came.

Bob turned his head to see not Optimus, but Trevor's head poking out from behind another alley. Bob and the other Incredibles ran over to the alley and found Trevor and Violet with their rings on their fingers. The Incredibles took this as a chance to get out of their super suits.

"Oh my god! You guys were awesome!" Dash said to the two knights.

"I'll say." Bob agreed. "That last move you did to him was the most heroic thing I've ever seen."

"Violet, are you okay?" Helen asked a little worried because of recent events.

Violet sighed. "Ugh. I'm fine Mom. I promise.'

That seemed to be the end of it. But before any celebration could be done, Teletraan went off again.

"Oh god, please don't tell me there's a second ring we missed." Violet said exhausted.

Trevor examined the screen. "No its not a ring and its not a Decepticon either."

Trevor got curious and pushed a green button on the left side below the screen. It apparently was the right button because the beeping stopped. But now on the screen was an image of a robot.

"Trevor, are you there? Can you here me?" the robot asked.

Trevor looked at the image on the screen and widened his eyes in surprise. "Hot Rod, is that you?"

And Hot Rod it was. "Yes it's me. Have you found the ring yet?" He asked.

Trevor smiled. "Yeah we found it. Violet, show them your hand."

Violet put her hand with the ring in front of the screen and Hot Rod almost jumped for joy.

"What name did she call out when she transformed." Hot Rod asked.

Violet took the liberty of answering that question. "Ironhide."

Hot Rod smiled again. "That's wonderful. Ironhide was the Autobot's weapon specialist back in the day."

Trevor and Violet looked at each other. "Weapon specialist?" Trevor asked.

Hot Rod nodded.

"Well I guess that explains why her guns were so big. Oh by the way, Shockwave was here."

Hot Rod looked concerned. "Shockwave?! Were you able to defeat him?"

Violet answered again. "Yeah we beat him. I got my ring just in time. Right when he was about to kill us."

Hot Rod then looked relieved. "Well thank goodness for that. Anyway the reason I contacted you is because we have a problem."

Trevor not only looked at Violet this time, but to everyone else.

"What do you mean a problem?" He asked.

"The Decepticons have learned the location of another ring. And they're on their way there right now."

"Well that's not good news. Where?" Violet asked.

"In the future." Hot Rod replied.

At once everyone looked confused.

"I'm sorry Rod but you just lost me." Trevor said.

"Maybe I should explain. When the rings first got sucked out of the ship and started to make their way towards Earth, nearly all of them managed to get up to a speed so fast, they entered a time warp. Only one of the rings didn't."

"My ring." Violet said.

"That is correct." Hot Rod said back.

"Why didn't you tell me about this before, Hot Rod?" Trevor asked.

"I wish we could have before." Hot Rod said. "The truth is we just found out about this ourselves just recently."

"Well that's great. So how are we supposed to travel through time?" Violet asked.

"I believe I can answer that one." Said a different voice.

"Wheeljack!" Trevor assumed.

And he was right. Wheeljack poked his head into the view of the screen.

"Hey Trevor. Long time no see." He said.

"It has been a while. But you were saying something about us going to the future."

"Oh yes right." Wheeljack said getting back to business. "The way the Decepticons were able to travel through time was with the use of space bridge technology."

"Space Bridge?" Violet asked.

"It's kind of like a portal that allows the traveler to go anywhere in location, time, or both at the same time." Wheeljack answered.

"How are we supposed to open up a space bridge from here?" Trevor asked.

"You're not going to open up the space bridge from there. We are going to open it up from here." Hot Rod answered this time. "The Decepticons left behind their plans for their space bridge by mistake. With a few modifications, we are able to open a portal from down there. It will be in the form a hole that you and the new AutoKnight should be able to easily walk through."

"Well that's great Hot Rod!" Trevor exclaimed. "Open it up and let's get our asses moving. All five of them."

Hot Rod gave Trevor a questioning look. "What do you mean five of you? Only you and the new knight are going through."

Violet looked upset. "You mean my family can't come with us?"

"I'm sorry, Violet." Hot Rod said. "But this mission is for AutoKnights only. Your family members would be too high of a cost if they went with you."

"I can't just leave them behind." Violet said.

"If you don't then this planet doesn't have a chance." Trevor said agreeing with Hot Rod. "Please Violet we need you. They should be all right. If the Decepticons did travel into the future than they won't be around for a long time until the time they come out of the bridge. Right Wheeljack?"

"That's right Trevor." Wheeljack said.

All eyes were now on Violet as she pondered her decision. After about a minute, she spoke.

"I don't like the idea of leaving my family behind, but it appears that I have no choice. I'm in."

Trevor smiled while Helen went frantic over her decision.

"What are you talking about Vi? Of course you have a choice! You can choose to not go and stay here with us!"

"Mom, don't you understand? I have to go. I have a duty to this world and Cybertron."

"Yeah? Well that duty almost got you killed back there! And you also have a duty to your family! Bob say something!"

Bob just turned around so his wife couldn't see his face.

"Bob help me out here!"

"Let her go." Bob said.

Helen's eyes widened as did everyone else's. "Bob, what?"

"Helen, we have to realize the fact that Violet's grown up now. And with this new power, she doesn't need our help anymore. We have to let her go. Besides, she seemed pretty capable of taking down that giant purple psychobot with Trevor here."

"But, Bob..."

"No buts. Although I do wonder, what are they going to do as for living arrangements?"

"Oh I can answer that one." Hot Rod said. "We have already sent some of our Autobots to the location of the new ring. It is close to a large body of water. They have been in the process of creating for the two of you, an underwater base."

"An underwater base? Will it be finished when we arrive?" Trevor asked.

"Yes it will." This time it was Wheelie who answered.

"Hey Wheelie!"

"Hello Trevor. Anyways as I was saying, we plan to send you two to the location exactly one day after it is fully operational. Everything will be ready for you."

Violet smiled "Well that's great. But what about clothes and other things?" Violet asked.

"Don't ask us how, but the shelves and closets will be full of everything you will need?" Wheelie assured them.

Trevor got confused. "How did…never mind. When do we leave?"

"Right now. Stand back." Wheeljack said as he pressed some buttons at his work station.

They all moved backwards a few feet and waited for something to happen. Ten seconds later, a flash of light arose and a hole was created in thin air.

"Is that the portal?" Trevor asked looking at Teletraan.

"That's it. All you and Violet have to do is walk through it." Hot Rod said.

Violet then began to say good-bye to her family as Trevor just watched. Violet firs t went over to Dash.

"Take care of yourself you little squirt. And try not to annoy Mom and Dad as much while I'm gone." She said with a smile.

Dash smiled back. "Please, I'm only hyper because I know it annoys you. But with you gone, this might give Mom and Dad a break from me too. I'm gonna miss you, Vi."

Violet laughed and knelt down to hug her little brother. She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and Dash jumped back disgusted.

"Hey now! I won't miss that!" Dash shouted while Violet laughed again.

She then looked over at her parents who were holding on to each other. Violet approached them and they engaged in a group hug. Helen started crying. Violet cried a little to.

"Please promise us, you'll come back." Helen said with tears still in her eyes.

Violet disengaged in the hug and wiped the tears away from her eyes. "I promise all of you, we will be back."

Trevor looked at her. "We?"

Violet looked back. "After all we've been through with you, you think you're not part of our family?"

Trevor then got a huge smile on his face. "Really?"

The Parrs nodded and Trevor smiled as big as he possibly could.

"Get your butt over here and hug us." Bob told him.

Trevor approached them still smiling and hugged them all together. Then Bob pulled Trevor out.

"We only have one condition." Bob said seriously.

"What?" Trevor asked.

"You promise to look after our daughter for us."

Trevor looked at Violet then back at Bob and Helen.

"I will protect her with my life. I owe it to her after she saved me." Trevor also said seriously.

Violet looked at him and they both turned around to face the portal. Trevor then looked down at Teletraan.

"Thank you Hot Rod." Trevor said.

Hot Rod nodded his head and the screen on Teletraan went blank.

"Well, let's do it." Violet said.

Trevor nodded and they both started to walk towards the entrance to the portal together.

"Be careful!" Helen shouted at them.

They both turned around and looked at her.

"Don't worry. We'll be fine. I promise." Trevor assured her.

Helen grabbed her husbands arm as the two teenagers continued their approach to the gate. As soon as they were one inch away, they stopped to have a look inside. All they could see was white light every where they looked. They then pulled their heads out and looked at each other with serious faces. They nodded their heads at each other and then, they stepped inside. As they walked deeper into the portal, the portals entrance got smaller and small until finally, it was gone along with Violet and Trevor.

Me: Well that's it! The first story is finished!

Violet: That was Awesome! I'm an AutoKnight! Thank you AK.

Me: No problem. Now I get to relax for a very long time. So don't give up on me yet. Because there are still more stories and rings to come. Until then, see ya!
