Guest02957: You'll just have to find out.
3bodyjaa: Nah, it doesn't pique my interest. Sorry.
Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers Prime. I only own the OC George Edwards/Bladewolf.
No rest for the wicked as the saying goes. Now, I'm not really a wicked person, I mean I can hurt people pretty easily, but I wouldn't say I'm wicked.
"On you left!"
"Watch it!"
"We've almost got them!"
But right now, there was no rest for me just now as me, Bumblebee and Arcee were in a Energon mine battling the Decepticons. This place is a large cave system that was recently unearthed because of a mining company and a cave-in ensued, forcing the miners to back out and thankfully not see the Energon deposit here. In an instant, our scanners lit up like a Christmas tree as soon as the deposit was unearthed so we immediately called Agent Fowler, had him evacuate the site under the guise of a possible sinkhole occurring, and we went in to start gathering up the Energon.
No surprise, the Decepticons mobilized as well. So now here we are fighting in the middle of the cave trying not to set off the Energon on both sides.
I had transformed my right arm into a Scatter Blaster, blasting any Decepticon drone in sight. "Bumblebee cover fire! Arcee you- Arcee?! Are you TALKING on the radio in the middle of a battle?!"
"I'm talking to Jack!" She replied like it was no problem, one hand pressed to the side of her head while her other is her blaster shooting back at the enemy. "Negative, Jack. Can we talk about this later?"
"Please!" I added over the firefight sounds as I moved in close to my Sparkmate to cover her, spraying a flurry of rounds down at the enemy. Jack was calling her right now so I couldn't really understand why he'd calling her now of all times.
"Bee, Wolf, can you handle it?" Or why she had to leave now!
Bee nodded to her and let down a suppressive fire while I groaned. "Graaa! Fine! But let him know I'm going to have a serious conversation with him!" I shouted and fired back at the 'cons, and I confirmed we can.
"Ratchet, I need a bridge." Arcee barely responded to my words as she took off while Bee and I mopped up the last of the enemy. Once we heard the sounds of the Groundbridge opening up behind us, we looked to each other and nodded before charging the enemy. Only 2 were left so we took 1 each.
I deconstructed my weapon, unsheathed 1 of my swords and leapt at the 'Con before slicing right through its chassis and watched the 2 halves fall to the ground before I stomped on the head, just to make sure. I looked to see Bumblebee take out the last drone and retracted my visor and mouthguard as I sheathed my sword with the other one in my back.
I then contacted Ratchet. "Ratchet, area secured. Energon ready for extraction."
"Roger that, I'll begin gathering my tools." He replied and cut off our call.
I then looked at Bumblebee. "What do you think Jack had to say that got Arcee ditching us?" I asked him jokingly.
Bumblebee shrugged. "Who knows? Seemed pretty urgent if she needed to leave RIGHT now." He told me and I nodded along.
The Groundbridge opened, causing Bumblebee and I to tense and prepare ourselves in case more Decepticons showed up, but we relaxed when we saw it was only Ratchet with Ironhide, Jazz and Trailbreaker.
"Nice of you to join us." I said sarcastically.
"Yes yes so nice to hear." He replied in an equally sarcastic voice, as much as he was kind of known for at this point. "Come on, let's get to work on gathering as much of this as we can before Megatron decides to send more of his troops to stop us."
"Wouldn't mind 'dat." Jazz said with a smirk. "Be one heck of a party."
I shook my helm. "Only you, Jazz. Only you..."
Something wasn't right, I knew that very well. I had this feeling in my gut that something bad was happening or going to happen. Deciding to just take a drive and pass the time, I was patrolling Jasper when I spotted Arcee and Jack heading for the train yards and factories. "Weird, isn't Jack supposed to be grounded or something?"
Deciding to follow them, I drove on after them at a pace that wasn't slow but it wouldn't get their attention as I wanted to see what was going on before I acted. I saw how Jack and Arcee pulled into the cement factory and then, a few seconds later I heard gun fire. Transforming to human form, I quickly took cover behind some crates and managed to hear voices from the warehouse.
"I'm still learning about humankind, but one thing is clear to me, Jack: you people care deeply about family, therefore the sweetest revenge I could possibly devise, would be to make you watch as I take your family apart."
'Oh I know that voice. Airachnid!'
"If you hurt my mother-" Jack started to threaten.
"You remember how much I enjoy sport, don't you Jack? So I'll give you the opportunity to save your mother. I've stashed her close by. If you can rescue her before the stroke of 12, I will let both of you go, unharmed. Deal?" Airachnid said, and I could tell she was smirking at making up this little game of hers.
"And if I can't? Jack asked.
"What do you think?" she said. I could hear footsteps.
"Please don't let her do this. You can let us go; we won't tell anyone." Jack begged to someone.
"Enough." said the voice which I so recognized as Silas M.E.C.H... why was M.E.C.H. and Airachnid working together?
"Yes Jack, man up already". Airachnid taunted the boy. "6 minutes."
I saw Jack run out of the warehouse calling for his mother, and soon Airachnid started to follow. I stayed in the shadows hiding myself.
'Guess it's time Airachnid and I had a rematch from our first encounter.'
"MOM!" Jack shouted after Airachnid gave Jack a hint as to where his mom was, she was on top of the Cement tower hanging by Airachnid's web. Jack climbed to the top of the tower to rescue his mother. By that time June was wide awake.
"What are you doing here? Who are these people? How'd I get in this mess?" she asked in shock.
"Don't worry Mom, I'm gonna get you out!" Jack said as he reached her.
Airachnid climb up next to Jack and June. June was terrified.
"Jack! The robots are real?"
"I BEAT YOUR DEADLINE!" Jack shouted to Airachnid was climbed above him.
"'Afraid not Jack. The task wasn't for you to find your mother. You had to rescue her." She smiled, as Jack went pale. "And time's up… Now." Airachnid fired a web which caught Jack arm making him unable to do anything.
"Take a seat, sit back and enjoy the horror show." she said as she crossed her legs.
Jack tried with all his might to get free from the web, but it was impossible. Airachnid chuckled at his desperation. She leaned in closer to him.
"You know Jack, she's your Mom. Why should I have all the fun?" She said hanging above Jack.
"So you get to choose agonizing or excruciating." She said as she spat acid at Jack only to miss him by a little, and hitting the railing. Jack grabbed the pole and tried to pry the web off of him, still useless. Airachnid chuckled at his pathetic attempt.
"Well Jack, if you won't decide..." Airachnid said getting in front of June who went pale in fear. "I guess its ladies' choice." she smiled.
"Mom, I'm sorry." Jack said on the verge of tears.
Airachnid slowly moved her hand in front of June ready to cut her. June already had tears rolling down her cheek. It looked like it was over, Jack would lose both his mother, and his partner/friend.
Suddenly they heard the sound of what sounded like engines before Airachnid turned around in time to be tackled down to the ground hard, then tossed her like she weighed nothing into a pile of pipes and a forklift. Jack looked to their rescuer and smiled with relief.
Bladewolf had arrived.
Airachnid groaned as she shoved the pipes off her before she stood and saw me, her optics widening before they narrowed as she growled with hatred and venom. "You!"
"Miss me, Airachnid?" I taunted her with a smirk as I punched a clenched servo into an open one. "Because I sure am wanting a rematch from the last time we met."
Airachnid's spider legs raised as she took on a fighting stance while I changed my right arm into the fusion cannon/sword arm that came with being in this form, even though I could change the arm and gun. However, I only deployed the sword as I assumed a stance as well. Airachnid and I stared each other down, our optics narrowed as I activated my battle mask, mouth guard sliding in place, visor coming down. I was ready for this.
We charged at each other with war cries and collided in a test of strength. I gave Airachnid a head-butt, then elbowed her in the face before parrying her punch and gave her a hip toss. I attempted a stab attack but she used her spider legs to block it then one scratched my shoulder before she used her normal legs to kick me back. I blocked one of her legs and swung her around before throwing her across the yard, then ran and tackled her through several trailers and trains. The 2 of us battled through the trains and objects like Bumblebee and Dropkick in the 2018 Bumblebee movie.
I tackled Airachnid down and landed a punch but she kicked me over her and slashed me across the faceplate with a spider leg, causing Energon to drip but I blasted her with a fusion cannon, sending her crashing into a small building. I picked up a train and waited for Airachnid to stand before I threw it at her but she leaped over it like a leaping spider and I braced myself for her tackle and we rolled across the ground, punching each other as we struggled to gain dominance in this fight before I threw Airachnid off me.
I aimed the fusion cannon at Airachnid who responded by shooting multiple webs that made me unable to use my cannon, but I could still use my sword arm. Airachnid chuckled before she ran at me then leaped but I backhanded her, sending her flying across the field.
"Is that it? I expected more Miss hunter." I taunted her.
Airachnid growled as she stood while I ran at her, ducked a swipe of her claws and connected a punch to her face but she grabbed me by the face and tossed me away, but I transformed into my vehicle mode to stop myself from crashing hard, drove straight at Airachnid full speed before transforming back as I tackled her down into the canal part of the train yard, the two of us punching each other. Man, this really did feel like Bumblebee vs Dropkick in the Bumblebee movie!
I picked up a steel beam before slamming it into Airachnid, causing her to grunt as she hit the wall before she ducked to avoid my fist from colliding with her head, then shot a web at where my punch had landed, trapping my fist there but I swiped with my sword however she leaped back and smirked before she ran and dropkicked me into the wall while I struggled to rip my arm free.
"Now, this looks familiar." Airachnid mused with a smirk before she shot more webs at me, trapping me against the wall. "There we go. Once again I have you trapped in my web like a fly." She ran a claw under my chin. "I'll make sure to take full pleasure in breaking you into my loyal pet. I think I'll make Arcee watch as I... get intimate with you."
'I think I'm gonna be sick.'
"Maybe I'll keep you around to satisfy my more... carnal desires." Airachnid licked her lips seductively while running a claw down my cheek. "But I think you need a mark so you know who you belong to."
I said nothing but instead I smirked before my head and face transformed into Lockdown's face cannon from Age of Extinction, much to her surprise, but she didn't have time to recover as I blasted her, sending her flying and crashing away from me.
"Sorry, psychos aren't my type... and I'm a taken mech." I said with a shiver of revulsion before I managed to break free of her webs and managed to rip off the one restraining my cannon when I rolled out the way to avoid getting hit with acid by Airachnid.
"Shame." Airachnid smirked. "Guess I have my work cut out for me."
"Oh get over yourself." I said with a roll of my optics before I transformed into my Cybertronian jet mode and flew at a surprised Airachnid, tackling her and taking her into the air before I blasted her to the ground hard. I transformed and landed not too far from her as she groaned. I walked over and picked her up before I threw her to where the cement pipe was.
I heard a motorcycle engine and looked to see Arcee arrive transforming as she landed on an upper platform, looked from me to Airachnid, then to Jack and nodded. Jack pressed a switch and cement was dumped on Airachnid, and because cement dried in quickly, Airachnid froze like a statue.
We heard Jack's mother scream and saw the web holding her was nearly breaking. We had to hurry!
"Hang on, June!" Arcee called as we ran to help when suddenly we were wrapped up with webs and dragged back down to the ground by Airachnid who chuckled as she approached.
"You sure know how to show a girl a good time, Bladewolf." Airachnid said with a smirk as she approached me and ran a claw down my cheek, smirking as Arcee glared at her. "So, how about I return the favor?"
Without another word, she pressed her lips against mine! She was KISSING ME!
I heard Airachnid moan in delight as her glossa, or whatever was the Cybertronian term for tongue, entered my mouth and plundered it. I saw Arcee writhing in her restraints, and if looks could kill... Airachnid would be dead. Primus, I could feel the anger and the rage through my bond with Arcee.
"GET YOUR DAMN LIPS OFF HIM!" Arcee yelled with fury and anger, causing Airachnid to break the kiss with a sadistic smirk as I glared at her with disgust and revulsion.
"Mmm, so good." She purred seductively when suddenly she was fired upon by helicopters and we looked to see Fowler had arrived with backup, causing Airachnid to retreat but not before she scanned a helicopter, transformed and flew off.
"NO!" Arcee yelled as she watched her nemesis fly away.
"Dammit!" I growled before I struggled against my restraints then eventually broke the webbing and helped Arcee. "Have I mentioned how much I hate her?"
"Join the club." Arcee said darkly. We looked up to where Jack was embracing his mother, having freed her.
"Ratchet's not gonna be happy another human knows of us."
"Nope." Arcee sighed. "But after tonight... I think June deserves to know after what MECH. and Airachnid put her through..."
