"Damn it" Ratchet said
"What is it doc?" Yang asked
"I'm picking up three vehicon signatures, right near when Side Burn and Nagisa went" Ratchet panicked
"What?" Weiss asked as she and Blake showed up
"Doc, open a ground bridge there ASAP!" Yang shouted "Blake, get Mirage, Drift and Chromia ready. I'm not loosing another sibling!"
"Got it" Blake said running off
"Bridge is open" Ratchet shouted
"Alright let's" Yang started before Side Burn and a yellow Audi TT drove through "What?" she asked.
"That was close" Nagisa said as he got out of Side Burn
"I'll say" Inori added in as she got out of the Audi, flipping her hood back up
"Why were they even there?" Side Burn asked
"Most likely the Amahas" the Audi said
"Oh well, let's go examine what was in that temple" Nagsia said
"You uploaded the image to Ratchet?" Inori asked
"Yea I di-"
"NAGISA!" Yang shouted as she leapt over the railing, landing next to him "You okay?"
"Yeah more than okay" Nagisa said
"Um who is this?" Blake asked as she and Weiss appeared making Yang glare at her
"Oh that's is I' Nagisa said
"Nice look Yang" Inori smirked, Yang was not impressed and threw a right hook at Inori, who blocked it easily with her elbow before she shoved it away "Punch could have a bit more power to it."
"Shut it!" Yang snapped as she swung again, only for Inori to block, Yang then tried a knee strike, which Inori also blocked.
"She's good" Blake said, observing the fight
"It's almost like she knows all of Yang's moves" Weiss stated
"She does" Nagisa said
"How?" his two sisters asked confused
"Who are you?" Yang snapped
"Oh Yang, it's me Inori" Inori said
"What?" Yang asked
"It can't be" Weiss said as Inori lowered her hood smiling
"What if it's a Pretender?" Blake asked
"She could be" Yang frowned
"There's only one way to tell, tell us something only Inori knew" Weiss said pulling Nagisa close to her.
"Oh, okay" Inori smirked looking at Blake. "Blake keeps her hidden adult literature under her bed in a lockbox" she said making Blake blush
"Seriously?" Yang and Weiss asked their sister
"Maybe" Blake said as Weiss turned on her heel and headed for Blake room "HEY!" Blake shouted as she ran after Weiss; the others following suit.
Weiss was under Blake's bed when she pulled out a small lockbox, Weiss frowned.
"Could be anything in there" Blake denied
"What's the code?" Weiss said
"Like I'm telling you" Blake glared at her
"26242" Inori said
"amaha" Yang nodded as Weiss opened it and pulled out some adult literature surprising them all.
"Can I ask how did you know?" Nagisa asked
"I'm the one who made up the code, also" Inori said before she sang a small bit of her song. Once she had finished Yang grappled her into a hug
"It is you" Yang tearred up
"Then what happened?" Weiss asked
"I'll explain it once we're all together" Inori said smiling
"I can't believe you ratted me out to make sure we knew it was you" Blake whined, making Inori chuckle and rub her sister's head.
"There there" Inori chuckled.
"This is not right, I should be in charge not Megatron!" Starscream moaned as he limped to a nearby air base, once he stopped and looked a smirk grew on his face "This is one of those GI JOE Bases" he smirked as he saw their aircraft out in the open. He quickly jumped the fence and approached one and scanned it, he enjoyed the rush as his new vehicle mode was accepted and overwrote his F-15 Fighting Falcon form, now having access to a modified F-35 Lightning II "Nice" he said as he transformed and flew into the sky, swinging around and opening fire on the aircraft, destroying most of them. Then the alarm sounded making their air defences; which locked onto Starscream, who flew over and used his null-rays to disable them then firing some missiles at them, explosions rocking the base. What Starscream didn't notice was the silver and purple Skyline watching.
"Lord Scourge; I have found Starscream" Nightbird said
"And where is he?" Scourge asked
"A GI JOE base, he adopted a new alt mode" Nightbird said
"What is he doing there?" Scourge asked
"I'm not sure" Nightbird said
"continue to watch him" Scourge ordered
"Yes sir" Nightbird said.
"Captain Amaha, Colonel Hughes welcome to the General Infantry Joint Operational Enforcement Service" a man said
"General Abernathy, it's a pleasure" Maes said shaking his hands
"Please call me Hawk" Hawk said
"Nice to meet you sir, and I would like to thank you in your help recovering my children" Masane said bowing
"It's okay captain, how are they doing?" Hawk asked the captain
"Still grieving, I think it is going to take awhile" Masane admitted
"It's hard losing loved ones" Hawk sadly smiled
"Have you ever?" Masane said before her phone rang "Excuse me, hello Yang honey calm down, what about Inori?" she asked before the base shook.
"This is Hawk, what is going on?" Hawk asked
"Sir, we got a Decepticon attacking" an aide panicked
"Which one?" Masane asked as the aide showed her footage of the attack
"Starscream!" Maes exclaimed
"How did he sneak up on us?" Masane said
"No idea" Hawk said before they saw an A10 Thunderbolt flew over head.
"It can't be" Nightbird gasped, transforming and pulling out her twin energy blade, activating her jetpack "Starscream, watch out behind you!"
"Nightbird, why should I?" Starscream said
"You have a Wrecker on your aft" Nightbird shouted
"Impossible, the only Wreckers left don't fly" Starscream scoffed, only to be attacked by the Thunderbolt
"Howdy screamer" the autobot chuckled, Starscream recognising him
"How are you alive?" Starscream shouted.
"I'm lucky I guess" the Autobot chuckled as he fired on Starscream, who tried to fight back
"Idiot" Nightbird screeched as she tried to attack from above, only to get flares in the face
"You were saying?" The autobot laughed
"We have dealt with you faction before" Nightbird said
"And I have as well, tell me does the name Bloodhound ring any bells?" the Autobot asked
"You" Nightbird growled
"As much as I want to see you slice him into silicon strips, we must return and report this" Starscream said
"There's a surprise" the Autobot rolled his optics as he flew around them more
"Fine, we will retreat. However know this, once we have want we want we will be back!" Nightbird threatened before the bridged out of there.
"Adios" the Autobot sternly said before he landed.
"And mum isn't picking up" Yang said putting her phone away
"Still, the others are here" Weiss shrugged
"But how are they going to react?" Blake asked
"Don't look at me" Nagisa said
"Or me, this is the first time this has happened" Inori confirmed before hiding as the others came in
"Everything okay?" Edward asked
"yeah, just discussing something" Weiss told them
"What?" Rin asked
"You can come out now" Yang shouted making Inori appear
"No" Rin gasped "I...Inori?"
"Hello Rin" Inori hugged her older sister who was now crying
"But how?" Shiro asked
"I don't know" Inori asked as she hugged Edward and Henry
"who cares!" Edward smiled
"But still, if she's alive then maybe the others are as well" Henry figured out
"But, how can we tell where they are?" Rin questioned.
"I believe that is what I come into things" a voice said making the kids look to see a Rhino looking up at them
"RHINOX!" they all cheered making the Maximal smiled
"It's good to see all of you" Rhino said.
"So, what are you doing here?" Inori asked
"You mean besides the Transwarp incident?" Rhinox asked
"The what?" Shiro asked
"That beam of yellow light wasn't a weapon, but rather a Transwarp gate" Rhinox said.
"That would make sense, since I was sent back in time" Inori said
"What?" Nagisa shocked asked
"Yeah, I was sent to New York city five years in the past" Inori told them
"That is what the transwarps were designed for, travelling not just space but also time" Rhinox said
"Oh GREAT!" Yang shouted
"They could be anywhere, any when" Shiro complained
"I know where another one of you is" Rhinox said.
"WHERE?" they all shouted
"200 years ago, we encountered them during our tenth year on this planet" Rhinox said
"Who?" Inori asked.
Setsuna was enjoying the warm water cascading over her body from the waterfall she was currently bathing under, after that bright light she woke up in some kind of jungle, most of the clothes she was wearing, were destroyed all expect her panties. So she was in some jungle somewhere in just her underwear that were currently drying after she washed him
"I have to admit, it's been nice in the jungle" she said "only if I know how I got here, and who has been watching me" she said as she walked over to the rock where he laundry was and laid down, letting the sun kiss her body and dry her. She usually used this time to get a bit of sleep in. She just laid there and watched the clouds, she then looked left and saw a cave entry "How long has that been there?" she asked pulling her only clothes on and slipped off the rock. She then looked deeper into the cave, she thought she saw something glinting in there. So she walked in there, where she located an underground temple; with a coffin inside the main doorway. Frowning she walked up to it and looked at it "Isn't that the icon of the Maximals?" she asked beginning to push it open. Inside was a weird object that seemed to be made out of crystal and metal. She touched it and it felt warm, a familiar warmth the same one she had around her neck. "Could that be where my pendant came from?" she asked before she looked around. Instincts were telling her that something was coming; so she walked outside of the cave. "Nothing" she said before the sound of beasts were heard. Out or fear she grabbed a long stick and held it like a stick. Bursting out of the forest was a rather large gorilla that was a fusion of beast and machine.
"WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH THE KEY!" it shouted
"Optimus Primal?" Setsuna asked shocked.
"So our sister is stuck in some jungle 200 years in the past, while our other brothers and sisters are scattered throughout time and we don't even know where" Yang complained "And our best hope to find them, is some sort of temple with a mural of the 13 original primes, one of them looks like Optimus"
"At least they're alive Yang" Shiro said
"And if they are like me, possibly wearing heavily damaged clothing" Inori said before their torches all shone on her
"What?" the others asked
"The transwarp beam, damaged my clothes" Inori said
"OH, HECK NO!" Yang raged
"Easy Yang" Inori said
"I'm sure Ruby is fine" Rin said
"Plus, where could she have landed anyway?" Edward asked making the room feel chilly "Oh shit"
"GUYS! OVER HERE!" Henry shouted
"What is it?" Inori asked
"Setsuna" Nagisa said pointing to Setsuna's name was left in Japanese for them
"Good girl Set" Rin smiled
"So, we now have a location" Blake said
"We can get her back" Shiro smiled
"Oh I don't think so" a cold voice said as walking out of the shadows was none other than Shockwave.
G'Day Guys Grizz here, and yeah yeah I know it kind of undercuts the fact Inori and the others are dead by saying that they were scattered in time and space, but hey that was makes it a bit of fun trying to search out where they are and recover them, all I can say is that half is in the future and the other half is in the past with Inori and Setsuna being two of the five in the past. Also the bit with Setsuna is how the maximals are being introduced in this fic. Also we have two wreckers in tis chapter the Audi and the A10 Thunderbolt at their alt forms and I hope you look forward to more
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside.
