Part 12.5 The Dawn

Chapter 109

It was as if she was looking through a long tunnel, and at the end, she could see what was happening. She winced every time Rodimus was struck, and when Chromia began to torture him, it was too much.

"Rodimus! Rodimus! Coby! Don't give up! Coby!"

Something began to pulse through her, getting stronger and stronger.

Lori's body, glowing with energy began floating through the Resistance's base until it floated into the sky. No one noticed.

"Coby!"

Lori!

"Coby! Don't ever give up! I'll come to you!"

The power flowing through her had gotten several times stronger. The wind whistled around her and she grabbed it, directing it skyward.

The power to change worlds; the power that changed her love; the power that would now change her; it was calling to her.

Around the green point in the sky, clouds collected into a swirling band of energy that began to dispel the barriers the Destrons had set up. A Space Bridge appeared, showing Earth at the other end.

Sonic Bomber, who had just gotten through the atmosphere, decided to stop and watch. He couldn't tell that it was Lori who was glowing.

The Planet Force in Chromia's hand let out a burst of green light that sailed over the horizon, striking Lori's glowing body. Now gold, it then shot through the Space Bridge, streaking around Earth until it found the glowing blue disk in an astonished Live Convoy's hand. It fell into the Planet Force in Live Convoy's hand before rebounding as a blue beam back through the Space Bridge and into Lori. The Space Bridge closed, the barriers reappearing, and a scanning beam shot over Sonic Bomber before the figure now enshrouded by blue light shot off toward the Temple. Confused, and slightly alarmed, Sonic Bomber followed.

At the Temple, Chromia looked at the now inert disk in her hand and shrugged, "Nothing happened." She rose her hand to finish Rodimus off, only to be hit in the chest by a powerful blast of plasma. Flame Convoy and Fang Wolf tore into the Throne Room, grabbed Rodimus, and ran outside, covered by Galaxy Convoy's powerful blasts. Once outside, Galaxy Convoy transformed and hovered in his jet form. They were about to put Rodimus on him, so that they could escape, when a burst from the door sent Galaxy Convoy into a nearby pillar.

The Destron's quickly surrounded the four. Galaxy Convoy, Flame Convoy, and Fang Wolf got in a circle facing out at their foes, Rodimus Convoy's unconscious form between them.

"Looks like this is our last stand," Fang Wolf said.

"It's been an honor serving with you two," Flame Convoy said.

Galaxy Convoy looked up and noticed a fast approaching figure covered in blue light, "What the hell is that?"

The figure dove, firing missiles and lasers at the Destrons. They tried to return fire, but the figure was too fast. Whoever they were, they landed and began dealing blow after blow to each Destron, throwing them out of the way. The figure then shot towards the three in the center. Arm raised, a blast of displaced air – a sonic current – struck them, knocking them away from Rodimus. The figure picked up Rodimus and flew off, just as Sonic Bomber flew in and landed.

"Soushireikan, what was that?" he asked.

"I don't know," Galaxy Convoy answered.

"We have to leave before reinforcements arrive," Flame Convoy yelled. "Let's go!"

She flew away from the Temple, using her sonic currents to remove the air resistance in front of her, allowing her to fly faster. When she had gone far enough, she landed on a plateau, gently laying Rodimus down. He wasn't in any danger, just unconscious as his auto-heal systems repaired him. Gently, she caressed the side of his face with her new hand.

"I will never leave you," she whispered. Then she stood, looking toward the horizon where the sun was coming up. "I am no longer just Lori. I am something greater, something far more. I will share my life with you, Coby. I will share it all with you Rodimus. Today is the dawn of a new day for us, and for me. I am reborn. I am Storm Gunner."

And then the sun came out from behind the horizon, filling the world with light.
