Hey transfans I'm sorry for not updating but school has started up for me and I just finished my second week. Let's just say it is a really interesting year for me but last Friday in 4th period a new 9th grader in a portable classroom pulled the fire alarm and the fire department came to my school but my school was scheduled for a fire drill just this past Friday in 2nd period but we just let the one from the Friday before count. So sit back and relax and enjoy the new chapter 5 of Autobot academy.
Combat Room
"Alright, begin!" commands Kup.
Five drones run towards Hot Rod with swords in their servos. Hot Rod jumps above them, then points both of his fist at the drones releasing a stream of fire from the three pipes on his arms. The Drones instantly either melt or explode, Hot Rod lands behind them, smirking as usual. Another batch of drones run toward Dice. Dice unsheathes her white katana and dashes towards past them, slicing them so fast that she isn't even seen until she appears behind them. Dice slowly sheaths her katana as the drones crumble into bite size pieces. Next, about eight or more drones dash towards Vulgar. Unlike the other two, Vulgar engages his enemies in melee combat, using his axe to bash and cut the drones. Vulgar slashes the last one in half before walking away from the pile of broken drones to stand with Hot Rod and Dice in front of the rest of the class.
"Excellent work! You all destroyed all of the drones that went up to you." said Kup.
"You say that like it's a good thing" said the custodian bot grimly as he looks at all the broken parts he has to clean up.
"That was awesome!" said Whirl as the next group of bots prepare to do their tests.
"Yeah, guess it was a good thing we installed those flame throwers into your arms huh." said Skids patting Hot Rod on the back.
"Yeah, I am definitely not the bot I use to be two weeks ago. That old geezer sure knows how to teach." said Hot Rod.
At the mention of that title, Kup throws a can at Hot Rod's head.
"Ow! Geez, can't take a simple joke." mutters Hot Rod while rubbing the back of his head.
"Hey, Dice nice move you did back there, I didn't even see you move!" said Vulgar.
"Thanks, you've gotten really good too." said Dice with a smile.
"Alright tin cans! Listen up!" said Kup as the last group walked back to the others. "Since all have done so well with the drones, I've decided to give you all a treat."
Everybot looks at each other in confusion, they all knew by now that Kup never does anything nice.
"Instead of fighting drones, from now on you will be fighting hard-light holograms!" finished Kup.
"W-what? You sure we're ready for that?" asked one Autobot.
"If your not, you might as well just leave my class room 'cause if you think real Decepticons are gonna be that easy to defeat, then you're just stupid. By training with hard-light holograms, you'll get to see how real Decepticons fight, which will definitely help you in the war. After all, this Autobot Academy, not boot camp." said Kup.
"What kind of Decepticons will we be fighting sir?" asked Bulkhead.
"Good question, Bulkhead. Each of you will be fighting a 'con that is just as powerful as you are. As you progress, your enemies will become grow stronger. You will also not fight the same enemy everytime, that way you can't really learn their moves 'cause in the war, you'll have to fight a variety of enemies." said Kup.
"So, can I go first? I've been waiting to destroy something that can actually match my skills!" said Whirl enthusiastically.
"Okay Whirl, step over here." said Kup motioning to the front of the fighting area.
As soon as Whirl steps over there, a beam of light scans him.
"Subject: Whirl. Power level: 6 out of 10. Searching for equal enemy..." droned the computer. "Enemy found, downloading..."
A beam of light appears and a random light grey Seeker appears.
"I'm equal to one of those mindless Seekers?! That's not even funny, give me a real enemy." said Whirl.
"Sorry, the computer doesn't lie Whirl, that's Seeker is your equal. You should be proud, Seekers are Megatron's elite soldiers." said Kup.
"Well, when you put that way," says Whirl looking up and down the Seeker before getting into a fighting stance, "bring it on!"
The Seeker charges forward, Whirl dashes towards him and tries to land a punch. The Seeker uses his heel thrusters to boost himself over Whirl, dodging the attack. As He hovers, the Seeker launches a barrage of laser blasts from the blasters on his arms. As the blast are hitting him, Whirl jumps towards the Seeker, grabbing him. The Seeker tries to get Whirl off by punching him, but Whirl takes the punches and smashes his right claw into the Seeker's chestplate. The Seeker starts to lose control and falls back to the floor with Whirl on top. Whirl keeps punching the Seeker until it goes offline. The Seeker disappears.
"Test complete." the computer drones.
"Interesting strategy Whirl, you disabled the Seeker's flight capabilities by damaging the Energon flow going to his thrusters."
"Thanks, though to be honest, I wasn't really thinking of that. I was actually trying to rip out his spark chamber, thought that would be an easier way to end things" said Whirl.
"Okay, a little brutal, but still an acceptable idea." said Kup.
Bell rings
"That's it for today bots! Tomorrow we will continue with the rest of you!" said Kup.
At the end of the day after Vulgar's classes
"That was some training." said Dice who was walking next to Vulgar.
"Yeah, today was kind of a long day. Glad we can finally talk outside the class." said Vulgar.
"Hey, where do you go at the end of the day?" asked Dice.
"I just head back to my dorm." said Vulgar.
"You ever explore the city?" asked Dice smirking.
"Uh, no. I really didn't you could leave the campus." said Vulgar.
"It's okay as long as you don't get caught. What do you say?" asked Dice, looking Vulgar in the optics.
"Well, as long as we don't get caught right?" said Vulgar.
"Yes! Come on, we can go right now." said Dice grabbing Vulgar's servo and running.
"Whoa! Where are we going?" asked Vulgar as he was dragged down the hallways.
"Shhhh! We don't want anybody knowing where we're going." said Dice.
"But where are we going? There are security guards across the campus." said Vulgar a little quieter.
"Just follow me." said Dice, after which winks at Vulgar and starts to walk into an elevator.
As the Elevator reaches the last floor below the surface, the duo gets off. Dice walks to a wall and pries it open, revealing a secret tunnel. Dice walks in, motioning for Vulgar to follow. He reluctantly follows, after which sealing the wall. They start to walk through the tunnel. "How did you know about this tunnel?" asks Vulgar.
"I stumbled on it while exploring this place, it leads to the outside." said Dice.
"What do you want to do when we do get to the other side?" asked Vulgar.
"Hmm, i was thinking we could just walk around, then head back. We don't want anyone noticing we were gone." said Dice.
"Okay" said Vulgar walking next to Dice.
"Hissssss"
"What was that?" asked Dice.
"Don't know." said Vulgar as they both turned to their left. They were met with a pair of yellow optics. Vulgar and Dice started to back up slowly as the creature revealed itself. It had two legs in the front and five large ones in the back. It had two sharp mandibles in front that snapped open and close. The bug started to move closer the pair before charging at them! Vulgar slams his fist onto the bug's head, sending it flying back where it came from. Dice gives him a thumbs up before staring in horror at the tunnel. Vulgar follows her gaze at looks to see about fifty or more yellow optics staring at them from the dark.
