Hey guys what's up?!
Wow! The sixth chapter of Rise of the TechnaFury!
I think I love this story :)
Anyway, I do not own any HTTYD elements I may use in this story, nor do I own Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters. But I do own Talus, and I also own the natural Predacon evolution idea.

Kamen Rider Dragon Knight: Thanks, and here's that more for you :)
Sami-SDGForce: Actually bud, I don't know whom I'm going to pair Talus with yet, so don't get your hopes up just yet.
Onto the show folks!
Take Care Now, Bye Bye Then!
Chapter Six: Fall of the Decepticons, Predacons Rising!
Talus sat with a silent Predaking, both Predacons were thinking hard about the future.
Predaking was infuriated about Megatron's betrayal! He ordered the attack on his brethren, the Autobots also played a part! They are the ones who acted and destroyed his brethren!
Both sides of this Primus fragged war hated the Predacons, so he had no side now! He was no longer yielding to Megatron's charge, nor will he ever forgive the Autobots for the destruction of his brethren!
Wait?!
He did have a side, he was a mighty Predacon!
Him and Talus were both mighty Predacons, and they would resurrect their fallen race together!
Speaking of Talus, Predaking's glowing amber optics snapped to the femme Predacon.
Predaking saw the almost sad look on her faceplate form, he wondered why, maybe it had something to do with that fragging Autobot Doctor, mutating her CNA!
He truely hated the Autobots now, not just for his exterminated brethren, but for mutating a normal mighty Predacon, into an angry, strong, and nearly uncontrollable mutant Predacon.
She was never going to be a normal Predacon, how else could she have been so strong? That rock would have crushed even himself, sure he might have held on for a few kliks, but after that, his spark most likely have been extinguished.
For Talus, she found herself being...saddened, that her ancestor's claw was the only TechnaFury's bone found on Cybertron.
Was she going to be the only TechnaFury ever to live again?
She wondered about her species, Predaking was lucky, sure he was alone now, but he could at least clone others from the dozens of bones underneath Cybertron's metallic surface.
But her species' bones were never found, her ancestor's claw tip was the only one ever found, and all of the CNA had been extracted in order to clone herself.
Predaking's optics snapped over to Talus' face plate, he noticed that she had a good...what was the human term for it...ah right, she had a great 'Poker face'.
He found that out when Knockout had said it, and he had to look it up in order to see what it meant, his first searches came up by a type of music, made by a femme by the designation of 'Gaga'.
He didn't understand it at first, but after a while he did.
Predaking looked down to her chassis where his optics landed on her insignia, and his optics narrowed in confusion.
What had happened to her old symbol?
Or maybe what had she done to it?!
Predaking looked at it, it was the same light blue and silver outline he remembered, but it was different.
It seemed to have narrowed Autobot symbol eyes, as well as the nose of the Autobot symbol.
He could also see the vents of the Autobot symbol in the horns of the Predacon symbol.
It had two spare horns as well, as well as the 'tear' marks of the Autobots' symbol, but it also separated the main horns a bit, with a line that cut through the side of the eyes.
It was a mix in between the Predacon and Autobot symbols!
Talus' peripheral vision saw Predaking's optics on her symbol, but she decided to ignore him for now.
Until she felt Predaking poke it with a clawed digit and he asked softly "Talus, your symbol? What has happened to it?"
Talus looked at Predaking before she puffed out her chassis proudly and she said "It is my custom symbol Predaking. It shows that I love my Predacon heritage, but at the same time. I will proudly stand with my Autobot team"
Predaking stared at Talus for a good solid cycle before he shook his helm and asked "But why would you change our race's mighty symbol?! For the glory of those Autobots?!"
Talus' optics widened, Predaking had said Autobots with so much disgust and hate, it made her own spark cringe.
Predaking grabbed her shoulder plate with a solid servo, before he said "Talus, the Autobots have done you so much wrong"
He looked into her optics and he said "Talus, I wish to offer you a chance, to help me resurrect our fallen brothers and sisters, please, join me so that we can make our Predacon race truly a race to be intimidated and feared by both the weak Autobots and Decepticons"
Talus looked at Predaking before she turned her helm to look at her pedes, before she said softly "Predaking, I-I don't know, you have been fed so many lies...?!"
"So have you! The Autobots have mutated your CNA, you are a mutant Predacon, I will accept you though, our race shall accept you.
The Autobots have done you very much wrong as well as I and our race. And yet you still defend them? Why?", Predaking demanded with wide enraged optics.
Talus looked at Predaking before she asked "A mutant Predacon? Who told you that pile of scrap?!"
Predaking looked at her confused before he answered, "The Autobot Doctor, whom you took from me"
Talus' optics softened before she said "Predaking, he was lying for me, he was protecting me. I'm not a mutated Predacon"
Predaking looked confused before he asked "Then how are you so strong? What are you?"
A smile wormed it's way onto Talus' faceplate before she explained "I am not a mutant Predacon, but my species is proof that Primus did not give up on our Predacon race, but the Primes did.
Predaking, I am a TechnaFury, a direct and natural evolution of the original Predacon race, rediscovered by the late Alpha Trion, cloned by the Autobots to help end this war"
Predaking's optics widened as he allowed his servo to fall from her shoulder armor, he couldn't believe this...in fact, he did not believe this!
Predaking's optics narrowed before he accused "So, you choose to lie to me, rather than accept that the Autobots mutated your CNA!"
Talus sighed a bit before she said "Predaking, it is the truth, look at this", she took out Alpha Trion's data pad, on the TechnaFuries that Smokescreen decided that she should have, from her subspace and held it out to the Predcon king.
Predaking looked at her skeptically before he gently took it and he turned it on and read through it, he had a bit of trouble with the original Prime text, but he managed, his optics slowly widening as his read through it.
By the end, he looked at Talus and he was speechless, just how powerful was her race if they gave the original Thirteen Prime trouble?!
Talus smiled softly before she gently joked "Surprise"
Predaking blinked his optics and shook his helm, getting his senses back on straight, before he asked "So...you are an...evolution of my race?"
Talus nodded her helm softly before she said "Yes, but I can't get over...how my ancestor's claw tip was the only one found."
Predaking stared at her, so she continued "I mean, were the TechnaFuries just that rare, or was my ancestor the only one, and now I'm the only one"
Predaking gently put a servo on her shoulder plate again before he said "I do not have the answer to that question Talus, but I can tell you is that you are not alone, for you have myself and soon, we will find Shockwave and force him to make more of our kind"
Talus smiled softly, his speech giving her a bit of hope in her mighty spark.
Predaking also smiled softly before asking "Talus, I ask of you once more, will you join me? Will you join within the soon to be ranks of the new mighty Predacon race?"
Talus looked uncertainly at Predaking as his left servo fell from her shoulder and was put out for her to shake on it.
Predaking stared at her with a stern yet soft look, his servo waiting for her choice.
Talus smiled softly before she gently put up her right servo and she gently grabbed his servo, as did his servo gently grab her servo, and both Predacons shook on it.
Predaking smiled, finally, things were looking for his way, until his audios heard Talus say "On one condition"
Predaking looked at her and he asked "And what would that be?"
Talus smiled and said "If the time comes, and the Autobots want our two races to co-exist in peace, you will at least try it out, alright"
Predaking's optics narrowed in anger as his optics filled with hate, he soon came to a decision and he said "I will consider it, on one condition as well"
Talus cocked her helm before she asked "And what would that be Predaking?"
Predaking was interuppted when he slowly rose in awe, with a grunt of pain from his chassis wound. Talus turned her helm and her optics widened in awe.
Neither Predacon had noticed that they had drifted in space, nor did they notice they were on their home world, Cybertron!
The plates were glowing, the Autobots did it! They won!
Talus smiled as she looked around, her optics not missing a thing.
Talus soon felt Predaking put a servo on her shoulder armor and he said "Come, we must find a refuge of some-kind before they follow us"
Talus nodded her helm and she said "Alright"
Predaking suddenly jumped off of the Nemesis wing they were on, before transforming into his Predacon self and spreading his large wings.
Talus took a shaky intake before she jumped off of the wing as well.
Talus felt the air fly past her structure before her optics narrowed and she engaged her T-cog, she felt her plates, armor, and muscle cables shift around before locking into place.
She opened her more sensitive optics now, and instinctively her tailfins, stabilizer fins, and her main wings folded out from her armor and they all snapped open before they caught the air and Talus took off into the sky.
She flew after Predaking, they soon past the control view of the Nemesis and she caught a glimpse of her Autobot team.
With a grumble, Talus stopped and hovered before she looked at them all. They were all looking at her with worry in their faceplates.
Talus read Smokescreen's mouth say 'Talus?'
Talus saw Bulkhead ask 'What is she doing? Why is she going with Predaking?'
Talus' audio sensors snapped up when she heard Predaking roar. Her helm snapped to where Predaking was hovering as well, Predaking roared again, and she could faintly see a worried look in his glowing Amber optics.
Probably wondering if she was going to go with the Autobots, she summarized.
Talus sighed through her olfactory sensors and she gave a soft roar to the Nemesis, she would see Team Prime again, but right now, Predaking was all alone, and she was an evolved Predacon.
And Predacons should stick together.
Talus turned to Predaking and she started to fly towards him, she could see a glint of happiness fly through his optics and he seemed to smirk at the Autobots before giving a loud roar.
Predaking soon turned and he and Talus took off into the new Cybertronian sunrise.
One Solar Cycle Later:
Talus and Predaking were flying through the sky in their natural beastly forms, still looking for a place to call their refuge.
Talus also figured out something about herself and Predaking, it seemed they did not need to have fresh Energon for long periods of time.
Talus and Predaking flew, every now and then, she would see with her peripheral vision that Predaking would look at her from time to time, probably worried for her.
Talus smirked softly, she was made for flying, this much she knew.
Predaking was amazed by Talus, it seemed that she was relaxing in the air, like she belonged in the air.
Probably, because he had to speed up sometimes to keep up with with Talus' form.
He also was observing how she flew, it was amazing to see her large structure, cut through the air with ease, and to have such control.
He was almost jealous in fact.
Talus' optics snapped to the wound on Predaking's chassis, it seemed to be getting much better, but every now and then it would still leak a drop of Energon.
No doubt when he transformed, it probably wiped her saliva off of his chassis, making it heal the old fashioned way.
Talus' optics snapped over to something on the ground, her optical pupils dilated a bit and her optics widened, she then roared to Predaking, whom jumped a bit and glared down at her with a growl.
Talus just gave a small grumble before she pointed with her right fore servo digit.
Predaking looked where she was pointing to and his optics also widened, with a roar, Talus dived down to go and land.
Predaking gave a small roar as he followed her, he to was also curious.
Talus soon landed gracefully, and as soon as she did, she transformed quickly into her alt femme form, who looked around the area in awe.
Predaking landed with a roar and he also transformed into his mech form, Predaking looked around before he smiled and said "Amazing, our ancestors"
Talus looked around and she said "Agreed", both Predacons were seeing a massive space of abut a mile in diameter, of nothing but ancient Predacon remains.
No doubt uneathed by the shifting of plates in the planet's restoration.
Predaking smiled and he said "For we have found it, our refuge!", his words echoing off of the sides of the Predacon graveyard.
Talus looked around and she smiled, there might be another TechnaFury in all of these ancient remains.
Talus turned to Predaking and she asked excitedly "Do you think there are any other TechnaFuries among our ancestor's remains?"
Predaking turned to the TechnaFury and he said "I do not know Talus, but that is a possibility, go on and look for any trace of your kin, I need to rest"
Talus nodded, the chassis wound was probably hurting Predaking, before she smiled with renewed vigor.
She would find more of her kind!
With an excited look on her face plate, Talus ran and she jumped up, only to immediately transform into her Natural TechnaFury form, and land with an large quake under her fore servos and back pedes.
Talus immediately started to sniff around, a determined look in her optics.
Predaking soon found a cave, he transformed into his Predacon form and laid down, he watched Talus sniff around, before shutting his optics and falling gently into recharge.
5 Megacycles Later:
Talus snarled in rage and pain, there was nothing! Not a single fragging TechnaFury bone!
Predaking's optics snapped open and he looked at Talus, he saw the rage and pain on her face and he could easily summarize why, she had found nothing of her species.
Predaking gave a growling sigh through his sharpened denta and he rose to his pedes, before he transformed into his mech form.
Predaking slowly walked over to Talus and she snarled as she glared at him, Predaking kept a well played look on his faceplates and he asked "I take it your search was unsuccessful?"
Talus snarled and she activated her T-cog and her parts shifted until she was in her alt femme form again.
She glared at the ground and she said "Not a single fragging bone, nothing to the TechnaFury species! Nothing!"
Talus gave a roar that usually would be in her TechnaFury form, and she slammed her right clenched servo into a ancient Predacon bone, the bone shattered to dust and splinters from the force of her strength.
Predaking's optics narrowed before he ordered "Talus, calm yourself now!"
Talus just glared at Predaking, her servos clenched so hard that Predaking could hear the metal of her palms straining against her clawed digits.
Predaking glared at Talus and he said "I will not tolerate the blatant disrespect to our ancestors! Do you not understand that these bones shall be our brethren someday soon!"
Talus glared at Predaking, her denta gritting hard against each other, she felt so much rage! She was all alone!
Predaking's look softened before he said "Talus, I cannot say I know that our race is rare, for the TechnaFury race is mighty, but from evidence, it also seems that they were also rare, very rare in fact"
Talus rolled her optics, tell her something she didn't already know.
Predaking continued "But I do know what it is like to be alone, I do not like the feeling at all, it will tear your spark asunder and leave nothing but a cold husk left.
But we are not beasts, and I will not allow one of my brethren, you my sister, to act like one.
We must be an example to future generations of mighty Predacons, we must not let ourselves be consumed by the troubles of now, but we must look to the future.
The future holds our hope, and with this hope we must not lose ourselves. For I make this vow now Talus, you shall see the TechnaFury race live once again, I do not know when, nor do I know how.
But I will make sure, once our numbers are many, we will look for other ancient and mighty TechnaFury remains, and you will have more to your kind.
And the Predacon race, will become a legendary race unlike any Cybertronian, nor any other Cybertronian will ever see"
Once Predaking was done speeching, Talus' mouth was dropped wide open, she blinked her optics before closing her mouth, her rage gone and replaced with awe and a new determination.
Predaking soon said "And if you join me completely, I shall do something for you"
Talus smiled and she nodded and said "What is it Predaking?", she inquired with a raised brow ridge.
Predaking smiled softly before he looked at her and he said "For you do not need to bow down to myself Talus, for you shall be the leader of your race, the leader of the TechnaFuries!"
Talus smiled softly, she didn't care if she was a leader or not, she just wanted a few more TechnaFuries living on Cybertron.
Predaking put his servo out to her again and said "You shall also be the link, the balance, the speaker of all three races, the ambassador, between the Autobots and our soon to be mighty races, the Predacon and the TechnaFury races!"
Talus smiled and she immediately grabbed Predaking's servo and they gently but firmly shook on it.
Predaking smiled before he said "I have given you much responsibility Talus, I do hope you shall be happy with those positions"
Talus' view on Predaking had just changed, a lot, with the Autobots, she thought that Predaking just wanted an army for himself, so he could take over Cybertron.
But, what he had just said was not only for her happiness, but he sincerely wanted the betterment of their kind, that was the kind of mech that needed to be a king, not Megatron.
Talus nodded and she said "I'll accept that deal Predaking, I shall be the the peacekeeper in-between all three races"
Predaking smiled and he gave a nod, sure she wasn't one of his subordinates, but she could make sure the Autobots didn't step out of their place, especially if she had an army of mighty TechnaFuries behind her.
Talus' optics widened as she felt static hit her comm. she put a servo to it and she asked "Hello?"
Predaking watched with mixed emotions, were the Autobots calling her back?
Talus soon heard, ":*Static* *Static* Tal-Talus *Static* Talus c-can you hear me?:", it was Smokescreen.
Talus smiled and she said "Smokescreen, I can hear you now, what's up bud?"
":Well I was wondering when you were going to come back to us? It's been an entire Solar Cycle Talus, and Bumblebee is going to be knighted into a warrior by Optimus...I miss you Talus:", she heard Smokescreen say.
Talus felt bad now, she also had friends on Team Prime that she didn't think about when she went with Predaking.
Talus soon answered "Alright bud, I'll be back soon okay, it should only take a Megacycle or two"
Predaking's optics widened in alarm, she was leaving him?!
Talus smiled when she heard Smokescreen say ":Yeah! Awesome, I can't wait, see you soon Talus!:"
Talus smiled and said "See you soon 'Screen", with that she hung up.
Talus turned to Predaking and she saw the look on his faceplate, Talus looked at the Predacon king and she said "I'll come back as well Predaking, don't you worry"
Predaking nodded before he said "Very well, but do not tell the Autobots where our refuge is, understand"
Talus nodded and she said "You got it"
With that, Talus activated her T-cog and her structure, armor, and muscle cables all shifted around until she was in her large natural TechnaFury state.
With a roar, Talus spread her main wings, stabilizer fins, and her tailfins before taking off into the sky with a large flap of her main wings.
Predaking watched her go, his optics narrowed, if the Autobots came to their refuge, whether by Talus' servo or not, he would destroy them.
Wow, I know it is probably a very short and very disappointing chapter.
But I wanted to get this chapter out of the way.
Anyway, please leave no flames in the reviews okay.
Take Care Now, Bye Bye Then!
