Chapter 28: More Than Meets the Eyes
Sari Sumdac, the techno-organic daughter of the genius Issac Sumdac and member of the Autobots, was having a rough day. She had been on Cybertron learning more about her heritage as being at least part Cybertronian. She and the Autobots had come back to Detroit to visit, and little after arriving, they were attacked.
Captain Fanzone was working with the other cops trying to clear the streets.
Sari transformed into her robot form, her face covered, and her jet pack extended as the auto bots began to fight off their attackers.
The Angry Archer, Meltdown, Nanosec, Professor Princess The Headmaster, Slo-Mo, Lock Down, and Soundwave decided to work together.
Bumblebee looked on, "Why are all these jokers working together?"
Bulkhead scratched his head, "Yeah, that doesn't seem right. Didn't a couple of these guys lose their powers or tech."
"Yeah, and I don't see Lockdown Working with any of these scrap heads," Ratchet added.
Jazz and Arcee had joined them on their trip, and overhead hovered Omega Supreme. Omega Supreme was not only their ship but a transformer himself, though there was little need for him right now.
Optimus Prime walked in front of his team, and he readied his ax. He didn't want to cause any damage because of a stupid fight.
"Turn yourselves in, and things don't need to get unsavory." As Optimus looked at this strange team of rogues, he had to ask, "Why are you working together? I didn't think any of you even knew each other."
The Archer smiled and fired an arrow, "As they say, circumstances make strange bedfellows."
The Autobots were about to destroy the arrow before it got close, but they found it hard to focus in on it, and it explodes before reaching them.
The arrow exploded, sent out a wave of energy that was screwing with them, and many of them began to get dizzy and confused.
Slo-Mo just grinned, "How do you like that? Does that take the skip out of your step?"
Lock Down just walked closer to the Autobots, "They got a few upgrades. Your lucky nothing is lethal, the client wanted a living specimen, and it's not worth risking damage."
The Autobots struggled against the attack, but as the villains charged, they fought back.
Optimus got up and close to Lockdown.
Bumble Bee Collided with Soundwave giving Sari and chance to recover. Sari felt ill, the attack had a weird effect on her, and it was harder for her to recover; maybe it was because she was part organic.
"Come to me." Professor Princess hovered on a flying toy pony.
She pulled out a sparkly ball and threw it at Sari; the ball quickly opened up into a sparkly energy net. Sari popped out her master blade, slashing the net apart.
Optimus noticed this, "You're after Sari."
Lockdown wouldn't say, but someone else would. A Humvee screech to a stop near them and transformed into A Decepticon known as Swindle.
"If you are a really curious thing, I'm the one who hired Lockdown and the others." Swindle was like an evil used car salesmen, so like a normal car sales except also a robot. "I gave them the upgrades along with the promise to get a bit of revenge. Revenge is a little messy for my taste, but it's a great motivator. I got someone already in mind for the little lady; they are willing to pay a lot for a genuine techno-organic. I can't say I understand, but they are willing to give me some grade A force-field tech."
The initial hit was weakening the Autobots, and they were holding their own but losing ground.
Calling Omega would likely wreck the city, so he wasn't an option; they needed to do something.
"Please hurry up," Swindle shot at Lockdown, " They said they'd pay extra for prompt delivery."
Swindle assured of their victory turned away and pulled out a small device, and it showed him a projection of a skull-like face.
"Hello there," Swindle put on a friendly tone, "It's me, my team is just picking up the girl like I said we would. If you could just send me the coordinates and-" Swindle paused as the figure just vanished, "Hello? Is this thing working? I swear the bot who sold me this was a little too eager to sell it."
Nanosec rushed around the bot and grabbed Sari to pluck her away, but suddenly the speedster collided with her but only as ash.
"Okay, what just happened?" Sari questioned brush the dust aside from her visor.
As Optimus clashed with Lockdown, he found himself going right through a cloud of ash. "What-"
"Aw slag! What's happening?" Bumble Bee let out as he started to dissolve.
The Archer yelled as he vanished, "You foul cretin, you betrayed us. Your technological wizardry has turned against us."
Archer attempted to attack Swindle, but before he could, he was gone.
Swindle held out a finger, "Oh! Buyer beware, but I don't sell anything that would disintegrate the user. I run off return customers."
The Professor and Headmaster, along with Soundwave, vanished.
Jazz followed into the dusting.
Arcee watched as Captain Fanzone vanished as he tried to keep people from panicking.
Arcee could only ask, "What's going on?"
"I don't know," Ratchet tried to get some scans to figure out what was happening as they just lost two teammates.
But he stopped as dust started to fall all around them, the old robot looked up just in time to see Omega dissolve.

Sentinel Prime was an arrogant big chinned Autobot. He was prideful to a fault, and somehow he ended up in charge of all the Autobots. This was not going according to plan, Optimus returned to Cybertron as the greatest hero of Cybertron after capturing Megatron. Then when he tried to have a stunt show for everyone to celebrate, it turned out the actors he hired were attempting to help Megatron escape.
Everyone was breathing down his neck, but he had something that always cheered him up in Trypticon Prison. Sentinel walked up the prison cell and ready to mock the big bad nightmare of his people that he was only so overjoyed to remind that he was locked up and never to leave.
"How's the room today, Megatron?" Sentinel smirked, but he paused as suddenly Megatron was dusted.
"What?"
The next cell held Lugnut, a loyal follower of Megatron beat against the cells, "Master! What happened?! where are you?"
Sentinel took a step back as Lugnut began to dissolve as did half the people in cells.
Sentinel received a message, "Sir! Something is happening?"
"What's going on?"Sentinel yelled back in his communicator, "Megatron just escaped! He just vanished in dust."
"It's happening all over! All over the planet and were are getting messages from other worlds. "
Sentinel lost that smirk as he realized he was in charge, and people were going to panic.
All over the universe, life forms of every kind had just for no reason started to dissolve.

A helicopter spun out of control coming fast to the ground, Slo-Mo held out a stop watch-like device, and with a flash of light, the fall came to a halt.
The strange dame sighed in relief; she was a villain but not exactly willing to someone just die. "Okay, come on, let's get you out of that-" She paused, "What in tarnation?" Slo-Mo let out as the person in the helicopter continued to dissolve, she stopped time for them how was this happening?
Optimus was running around with the other Autobots pulling people out of crashed cars, Ratchet keeping other things from falling on people. Everyone was scrambling to do what they could; even the villains were trying to help.
Well, almost everyone.
Sari Sumdac was high in the air and rushing towards Sumdac Tower.
She had to know. The sparkplug shaped tower was close by, and as she got close, a window opened for her. Sari rushed through the halls, "Dad! Dad!"
She lost him once; she couldn't lose him again.
She rushed int his lab shattering the doors as she moved in. Issac Sumdac, her father, was standing before several screens. All the screens showed reports from all over the world, all showing the same thing happening.
"Sari?" He turned to her.
Sari didn't even realize it, but her armor peeled back to reveal a teenaged girl with tears in her eyes.
"Dad?"
Issac didn't want another moment as he rushed and hugged his daughter.
They were both just glad to be there, the world around them was falling apart, but they were together.
Author's Notes: So, yeah, these bots do count as living things. Transformers have a soul like things called sparks, which I already said is how the stones pick people. I could have gone with any version of the transformers, but I've always had a special place in my heart for the animated series.
Okay, question: tell me which of these worlds has been your favorite so far and which dusting was the best?
Also, I have been meaning to let you guys know that if you are wondering of someone I didn't mention, let me know. I'll let you know if they survived. Just leave a review and tell me what you think.
Q&A:
omega5342: I don't know the Touhu project. As for the doctor, that was chapter 6.
The Cowardly Christian: Thanks. I'm not doing more requests. Well, I might do one voted on, but that will be the last one after I'm done with the list I already have. I can already tell you one of your suggestions is on my list. As for Star vs, I kinda already did that in chapter 2. I did my AU Like Father, Like Daughter. So you can see star vs character get dusted along with my marcapoo daughter.
