Tekkaman Prime

ESKK: Well let's get started with this new chapter.

(Start Nick)

Nick was tired wait no tired wasn't the word he'd use. It was far too early to get up for that crap. Far, far too early and this was the guy who went through the NASA training. Apparently Elita, Optimus, Ratchet, and Ironhide would meet up every morning to discuss patrol schedules and the like. With more Bots and now more humans to worry about with over half of them being Tekkaman they had to do some changes. Now while Nick can see it as important it gets bigger than that.

Apparently Uncle Sam want's a liaison for the Tekkaman on duty and while Fowler is good he's starting to get overrun with work. The Tekkaman if they continue will very much become a new species on Earth and when that happens could cause a huge panic. They are currently working on the new guy and thankfully Fowler gave them a warning beforehand. Good news came in that Fowler was able to get the Tekkaman set up with their own temporary base and as such Elita, Perceptor, and Ratchet have been in an out working on the new base of operations for the Tekkaman.

Back to the meeting Nick was happy it was on a Saturday but he was a bit annoyed that the meeting took all of TWO HOURS to finish up. Coffee he needed coffee because this was murder on him. So when that meeting came to an end Nick could not have left fast enough. But still Nick may have to have his room used for Friday Night because for the meeting to be early on Saturday followed by the Tekkaman's training after his own yeah Nick could not wait to leave.

So in turn Nick was set up with a laptop when the meeting ended as Ironhide got to Nick's first major lesson on leadership protocols. "Ready for your first lesson, kid?" Ironhide asked as he looked to Nick who sat on the sofa with a laptop set up. "Don't tell him I said this but Prime and Elita think you got a lot a potential to be a leader, so we'll just go over the basic scrap at first." Ironhide said as he got down to business. "Now let's get down to teaching and learning." Ironhide said as he activated his screen from Ratchet's station which was linked up to Nick's computer.

But when Ironhide got to the major stuff he nearly gagged over what he saw. "Oh, by the Allspark, Prime, you want to bore the kid to death before Radan or the other Tekkaman have a go at him?" Ironhide complained as he looked through the testing list on his screen to which Ratchet acting from his own nearby work heard.

"Ironhide some of these subjects are required so proper protocol may be observed!" Ratchet called out as he knew that Ironhide has not changed since they had parted ways when Cybertron went Dark.

"And that's why the kids love me better Ratchet." Ironhide shot back to which ratchet rolled his eyes and returned to his own work. After all once the weapon specialist put his mind on something only Chromia can talk him out of it. "Command terminology and vocabulary … passed." He said, clicking a button before looking to Nick who watched. "You took these tests, kid, remember that." Ironhide said and thus Nick sighed knowing Ironhide just wants to get to the good stuff. "Battle strategies throughout Earth history' … passed. 'Battle strategies through Cybertronian history' … passed." Ironhide listed off as Nick figured it's been a while if the Cybertronian History one was still there.

Just then Ironhide was taken back by something. "What the heck … 'Command professionalism'? I thought we edited that one out, frag it Magnus." Ironhide said as he knew how that stiff by the book bot can be at times. Don't get Ironhide wrong Ultra Magnus was a great leader but he was too stiff and sometimes his command style had a negative effect on unit moral. "You look like a good kid, passed." Ironhide said as Nick would need to check those books out later when he had time. It was then that Ironhide got to what he was looking for as Nick saw the cannon using Bot grin. "Now, here we go, scenario quizzes, these are where you learn!" Ironhide said and thus got the program started up for Nick.

Once Ironhide did this Nick watched as questions appeared on his screen. "These are simple scenario examples, kid," Ironhide began as Nick was already reading through it. "Answer how you would respond to each, the next question will depend on how you answer the previous." Ironhide said and thus Nick understood.

"Shouldn't be so hard." Nick said and thus he got to work on his little exam. But there was a saying about tempting fate after all.

(Scene Break that Afternoon)

"Only a few more, kid." Ironhide said with an apologetic smile as the Tekkaman returned to the room after a short break.

"That's what you said four hours ago." Nick moaned out in frustration as he plopped down into his seat.

"We'll be done in two hours, promise!" Ironhide grinned, earning a groan from Nick.

During this Jack had arrived as did Arcee when they saw the situation Nick was in. "Boy I do NOT envy him." Jack said as Arcee nodded.

"Trust me if you met the guy who originally made that program it would be worse." Arcee said as she knew about by the book Ultra Magnus.

(Scene Break Evil)

Evil was in his command station once more as the Nemesis flew close to it. As this happened he saw at the docking area Radan were there with Energon to be handed over to the Decepticons as well as supplies to upgrade the station. Evil didn't like it as he stood there arms crossed glaring at the scene before him.

"Omega how much longer before the others will be ready?" Evil asked as he turned around and glared at the image of Omega behind him.

"Soon, Evil this takes time and patience one wrong move will see them dead." Omega urged as he glared back at Evil. "But considering Blade was able to complete the Primary bodies transformation into Full Tekkaman with that new item of his we must take caution." Omega said as Evil snarled a bit. "We must keep this alliance working Evil, no doubt Megatron is using the one they call Soundwave to monitor us and learn where our primary base is located it would be no surprise if they were observing us right as we speak." Omega added as Evil looked outside the window at a certain direction in time to see a tail fin fly by. "But all parties will benefit from this alliance until its use has run its course." Omega said and thus Evil scoffed to this.

(The Nemesis)

"Just because we are doing this does not mean I have to like it." Evil spoke before Soundwave cut the feed.

"So they anticipated us." Megatron said as he looked upon the images. "So this Omega is the commanding officer of this invasion force now to learn where there base is located." Megatron said and thus he then growled to this as he held his head.

"I know you were eves dropping Megatron." Evil spoke via Megatron's thoughts.

"And it seems your connection to the Dark Energon is improving Evil." Megatron countered telepathically as he knew those with the dark matter were linked.

"Be that as it may you wish to learn where the primary base is located do you not?" Evil asked and thus Megatron knew how to play this. "I cannot tell you not now at least Omega will suspect but I do know someone who can, she is currently on Earth looking for my brother and I have been tasked with hunting her down." Evil said and thus Megatron knew where this was going.

"So you dine the need of our aid?" Megatron said more then asked but Evil scoffed.

"More Soundwaves then your aid, Megatron." Evil said and thus Megatron knew why. "I will transfer where her last known sighting was, I need to continue the search on my end." Evil said and thus Megatron received the information before it was severed.

"Lord Megatron." Nightbird spoke as she approached her Lord and Master. "Pardon my intrusion my lord but I feel that I must voice objections to this alliance once more. I fear that this alliance will be detrimental especially if Evil has the Dark Energon." Nightbird said as she didn't trust Radan not one bit.

"Your concerns are noted Nightbird and take comfort in knowing that Soundwave and I have taken the needed precautions for this alliance." Megatron said as he stood in the command deck with his crew perform their needed tasks.

"Of course my liege please forgive my impudence." Nightbird said with a bow to her master. "I will take my leave." Nightbird said as she then proceeded to take her leave of Megatron.

(Scene Break Autobot Base)

Ironhide arrived back at the base with Nick and his team in tow. Nick, Coby, Bud, and Lori rode inside Ironhide while Misha and Kicker had to ride in the cargo bed. When they got out Jack and Sierra were there to meet them as was Chromia. "Hey guys." Nick said as nearby Jetfire and Perceptor were working on Pegas.

"Hey about time you all got here, things were getting boring without Raf and Miko here." Jack said as he looked to the new arrivals as Ironhide transformed to robot mode.

"Well here we are, so what did we miss?" Ironhide asked as he approached the group.

"Well if you must know." Elita began as she approached the group. "Optimus went with Bumblebee and Moonracer on a scouting mission and left me in charge." Elita said as she approached the group.

"Well good to know, and glad to see Jetfire beat us here... again." Ironhide said as Jetfire waved over to Ironhide and then got back to work.

"So Jackie get this." Kicker began as he went up to Jack. "Me, and the others apparently got our names as Tekkaman." Kicker said as Jack smirked to this.

"You don't say." Jack said as Misha walked past them to where she left her own things.

"Trust me it's so cool but everyone but me got named after weapons." Bud said as Coby nodded. "Coby is called Hammer, Lori got Scythe; Kicker has Claymore." Coby began listing off as Kicker smirked on his title.

"Hell yeah Claymores for the win!" Kicker cheered with a grin on his face.

"Misha got Cutlass and I'm being called Disk." Bud said as Nick then sighed to Bud's objections.

"Bud, you can barely pronounce Chakram plus your weapon can be thrown as a disk so it's not that far off." Nick said as he walked over to Bud. "Plus it will be a while before your combat ready consider how old you are." Nick said as he knew Bud was the youngest.

"No fair!" Coby scowled as nearby Misha was working on her computer.

"Look on the bright side you can spend the whole time with me running data and simulations." Misha said and thus Jack smirked when he saw Bud scowl.

"Please no boring it's as bad as Coby talking about some machine he's working on." Bud smiled and thus Sierra chuckled a bit.

"Well whatever but right now we got chores to do." Nick said as this got a groan from Kicker and Bud.

"But we just got back." Kicker said as he did not want to do chores right now.

"You're free to go home if you don't want in." Nick countered and thus Nick shivered to that. Kicker got off super lucky in comparison to everyone. His sister and mom were not in the town when it went to Hell his dad well Heck if he knows where that guy was. All he knows is that he sends money and presents from wherever he was at the moment. Truth was Kicker was visiting his uncle when shit hit the fan. But with an overbearing mother yeah Kicker will deal with the chores but he won't like it.

"We better get to work to, Sierra." Chromia added as she looked to Sierra who nodded in agreement with her guardian.

"Right." Sierra said and thus she headed off with Chromia for her own chores.

Once most of the kids were gone Ironhide and Elita approached Ratchet and the other big brains. "So what's the word on Pegas?" Ironhide asked as he looked to them.

"Currently factoring in the new Psi-Voltekka beam weapon Evil has we are currently trying to increase the power output to Nick's own Voltekka so to overpower the Psi-Voltekka and produce a counter means to best Evil and his new weapon." Perceptor said as he continued to work on his part of the project.

"And I'm over here helping them out." Misha called out from her laptop as it seems they now have two super smart humans on deck. "Perceptor balance out that surge coming in." Misha called out and thus Perceptor did so and thus Pegas was saved from an overload.

"Wow you must be torture for Miko." Ironhide chuckled as he saw this.

"Is there any word on Shara?" Arcee asked knowing Shara was still on Earth somewhere.

"I'm afraid not, no." Ratchet said as he kept looking. "We've managed to narrow here down to Nevada but that is as far as we have." Ratchet said as they knew this was a problem.

"It will be like a game of hot and cold." Elita said as she rubbed her chin a bit in thought. "Keep searching if Shara had escape locating her and providing her asylum may prove beneficial in besting Radan." Elita said as she knew if Shara escaped chances were that she might know where Radan's main base is located at.

"Understood." Ratchet said as he got back to work on locating the missing girl.

(Meanwhile with Shara)

Shara had taken a small break as the hot sun was bearing down on her. As she sat in what shade she could find she looked around and saw there wasn't a main road for miles. She was tired, exhausted, and running on borrowed time as is. She knew why she was able to escape and she knew it was not as good as one might thing. But with what little time she had left she needed to find Nick and tell him everything the identity of the other Tekkaman, of who Omega was, and most of all of a higher power beyond Omega at work.

But as she sat there she looked to the sky and saw a condor circling around. She had to hurry and with that in mind she got back up and continue to walk intent on locating Nick in Jasper no matter how much she must travel to do so.

(Later back the Autobot Base)

Nick was in the base training with the Knight Sword with Firestar observing the scene to give Nick pointed he might need. As of the last battle he was on standby until Pegas's new upgrades can be completed. With this in mind Nick had opted to train as the Knight Sword might come in handy in the event transforming was unavailable to him. Good news Pegas new upgrade was almost ready thank goodness for having five big brains on staff to get it done. Nearby Coby, and Bud were playing video games while Kicker and Lori were MIA at the moment.

Just then from Ratchet's Station an alert came in which he took note of. "Arcee, Commander One a vehicular form is approaching." Ratchet said as he saw the alert on screen.

"Decepticon?" Arcee asked with concern that their base may have been discovered.

Ratchet then pulled up the screen causing Jack to moan a bit when he saw this. "Mom." Jack sighed as he realized his mom was here again.

"Again?" Arcee asked as she had her hands on her hips clearly annoyed.

"She worries." Jack said as Nick sighed and had the sword retract back to its original state clamped onto his arm.

Not long after June came down the tunnel in her car and then came to a park. "Welcome back Nurse Darby." Elita greeted as she looked to June.

"Hello Elita." June greeted happy to see Elita here. The two got along swimmingly with each other while Bud suspected it was because they were both basically moms around here. "Hi honey." June greeted her son as she headed over to give him a hug. "Finished my shift early at the hospital so thought I might swing by." June said as she released Jack from the hug. "Good to see you again doctor." June greeted over to Ratchet who nodded to her. "Arcee." June greeted while looking over to Arcee who shrugged in response.

"So where's Optimus?" June asked as she looked around for the leader of the Autobots.

"Commander Prime is currently out on a scouting mission with Bumblebee and Moonracer sorry to disappoint Nurse Darby." Firestar said as she got up since training was over.

"And I wore heels and everything." June joked making Jack go wide eyed to this out of embarrassment and worry due to the fact Elita was right there.

"Mom!?" Jack retorted as he did NOT need to hear that from his own mother. "Elita is here." Jack added and thus Elita chuckled to this.

"I mean no offense when I say this, Jack but while Nurse Darby may be considered attractive by Earth Standards." Elita began as she then playfully struck a pose a bit with her servos behind her head pushing her chest outward with her hips tilted a bit while her right tread on its tips and that same knee bended slightly almost like that of a pin up photo she saw once. "But by Cybertronian Standards I'm the one with the looks from Mech and Femme alike." Elita joked as this got Jack to want to roll into a hole and just die. Smirking a bit Elita decided to put this joke to bed as it were. "I see your eyes wandering Firestar." Elita teased and thus all eyes went to Firestar who coughed and looked away in embarrassment.

"Don't worry Jack I'm not the kind of woman who will steal another woman's man." June assured her son as she knew Elita and Optimus were practically a married couple with how much care they have for each other.

"Please stop you two are making me want to get a lobotomy." Kicker called out from above as he finished up his game a little bit ago.

Just then Ratchet's instruments detected something of note. "That's odd." Ratchet said as he began to look into the alert. "This is an extremely unusual magnetic flux for any planet." Ratchet said as he noted the anomaly on his instruments.

"Can you send it over, maybe I can help decipher it?" Misha offered and thus Ratchet nodded and thus sent it over. Once Misha had the information on her computer screen she began to read through it. "Well I can see why it's unusual." Misha began as she began to look deeper. "From the looks of it, it seems to be artificially created in a sense but nothing detrimental unless a tremor of sufficient enough magnitude hits that area." Misha said as she send the data back to Ratchet who was thankful to have another big brain on duty besides Raf.

Unaware to them though the Decepticons had also picked up on the anomaly.

(Decepticon Warship the Nemesis Command Deck)

Soundwave had also detected the magnetic flux as he presented it to Megatron and Nightbird. "I recognize this magnetic signature Soundwave." Megatron said as Nightbird nodded to her lord.

"Shall I dispatch a team to retrieve our last Decepticon property before the Autobots can retrieve it?" Nightbird offered to her lord and master.

Just then a new voice spoke up which got their attention. "I will secure the weapon Lord Megatron." Breakdown spoke as he approached the two head honcho's of the Decepticons.

"Breakdown?" Megatron began with a scoff over the one eyed Con. "If you can be bested by mere humans what chance do you have against the Autobots?!" Megatron snapped at Breakdown before heading off to have a team gathered to retrieve the Decepticon weapon.

"Allow me to redeem myself master, what I have lost is a constant reminder that I must never again fail you." Breakdown said as he looked to Megatron and thus Nightbird had an idea.

"With all due respect Lord Megatron." Nightbird cut in as she hoped to convince her beloved master to reconsider. "Breakdown was ambushed at the time since he was alone when it happened." Nightbird said as she looked to Megatron. "Would it not benefit to offer him a chance to retrieve the gauntlet?" Nightbird asked as she looked to Megatron.

"Your spark is in the right place Nightbird I cannot deny that." Megatron began as he looked to Nightbird. She often rewarded loyalty with chances for redemption but despite this he was unconvinced. "But after that stunning failure I don't believe Breakdown can handle this task." Megatron said and thus Nightbird spoke up.

"Then allow me to assign one of my femme's to accompany Breakdown." Nightbird said as she looked to Megatron as she was fully prepared for whatever order he might hand off to her.

Hearing this Megatron thought it over and consider her track record the only major failures Nightbird had was against Elita 1 and Optimus Prime. "I assume you have a particular Decepticon in mind?" Megatron asked and thus Nightbird nodded.

"Shadowstriker of course." Nightbird answered as she knew Shadowstriker well. A stealth and espionage expert and a master marksman Nightbird has selected Shadowstriker for her team on those merits alone. Thunderblast was a great medic for them but her best gift was as a demolition expert. Slipstream was for lack of better terms the old team's getaway driver due to how good a pilot the femme seeker was. Arachnid was their insertion agent due to her ability to enter places undetected so she can bring down their defenses and let the rest of their forces in. Problem was due to her more sadistic nature Arachnid was more of a Torture and Interrogation expert but she had her uses... when she wasn't trying to snuff out Nightbird.

"Very well you have my permission Nightbird." Megatron said and thus Nightbird nodded to this and went to summon Shadowstriker.

(Scene Break with Tekkaman Evil)

Evil was currently on the Manta like Radan as he was currently trying to locate Rapier. As he looked he knew she had to be in this area because with this heat and her clear lack of supplies it was a miracle she made it this far as is. Regardless Evil had to find her before Blade could find her and with this in mind he continued the search. He had Radan set up around the area to help with the search. He would have contacted Megatron for aid but this would not be the case since the Cons were doing their own thing at the moment... and Evil's pride would never allow him to accept the Decepticon's aid regardless of their alliance.

"Rapier... Shara... where are you?" Evil growled as he continued his search for his missing younger sister. Wherever she was she will be found and in turn dealt with accordingly. Radan did NOT tolerate traitors and they most certainly did not tolerate any attempts at rebellion against them.

(Scene Break back at the Autobot Base)

Everyone was back to their own thing, Nick was beating down a punching bag trying to stay in shape while Kicker and Bud were playing video games nearby. Coby was working on a new machine while Lori was reading a magazine with furniture on it. It was that same catalogue that got the group to bring in more furniture so they had more room to hang out as the area where the humans hung out was looking more like a living room now. Misha was still helping the Autobots from her laptop as with her here it seems Raf didn't have to do as much as he normally did. Next to Misha was a bowl of snacks as she reached over and popped one of them into her mouth before going back to work. Good news for them since incase Raf was out of commission for any reason they had Misha on standby to provide aid.

Sierra and Chromia were still doing inventory in the back of the Autobots and Tekkaman's equipment and Energon stores. Elita was actually returning from that same task as it was right up her alley. Before the war Elita used to be a Dockworker back on Cybertron in the city of Iacon handling imports, exports, and the storing of such things. She had actually been manager of her own warehouse before the war broke out and despite its struggles she did love her job back then. Maybe when the war is over she can find a nice port to settle down and go back to doing what she loved to do... well one of the things she loved to do. The other thing she loved to do involved herself and Optimus but luckily they were professional enough to keep it to their down time.

"Alright Ratchet our stores are looking good but Energon may need to be refilled soon." Elita said as she looked over the list she acquired from the inventory watch. "Our growing numbers means we need more Energon to support it we've discussed this with Optimus already but we may need to organize scout teams to focus on locating fresh Energon deposits." Elita said as she put her list down.

"Understood." Ratchet said making a small note to remind himself of this.

Just then the sound of an engine was heard from the tunnel and from said entrance tunnel Bulkhead drove in. Once he parked his passenger door opened and from it Miko and Raf jumped out as Raf was laughing in joy. "Did you feel the G's on that last turn? Bulkhead's an animal!" Miko cheered as Bulkhead transformed into robot mode. Just then Miko gasped when she saw June was in the base as she was talking to Jack. June of course noticed them as needless to say Miko was not happy about this. "Remember when this used to be a secret club house?" Miko whispered to Raf as she liked it here because no parents... unless you counted Optimus and Elita of course.

Acting fast Raf stepped up to the plate on this. "Uh don't worry Ms. Darby we were wearing seatbelts." Raf said as he and Miko walked over to June and Jack.

June saw the two were ok and had fun opted to let it be. "I'm sure you were, Rafael." June said calming Raf down of any worry of being in trouble. "Hi Miko how's school going?" June asked as she looked to Miko who got defensive on this.

"Why what you hear?" Miko asked and thus Misha spoke up next.

"She got three days of detention for setting off a stink bomb and Saturday School for ditching detention." Misha said as she didn't even look away from her current work.

"TRAITOR!" Miko yelled as she got ratted out.

"And that is why we keep Bulkhead on a mission for such days." Elita said as she knew Miko had used Bulkhead as her getaway driver in the past.

"Smart." June said as Elita smirked to this.

"Trust me Bumblebee and Moonracer were similar a long time ago." Elita said while crossing her arms in a relaxed manner.

Just then Arcee spoke up to get Jack's attention. "Let's do this thing Jack." Arcee said and thus she walked passed Jack and June while carrying what looked to be a roll of cables in her hand.

June of course was surprised by this and thus spoke up on it. "But I just got here I brought sandwiches." June said while offering snacks to the group.

"What kind?" Coby asked from above when he heard food involved but was ignored for it.

"Mom." Jack began but then gathered his words. "Look I really need to help Arcee test her upgraded tracking system." Jack said as he looked to his mom.

Seeing there was no arguing on this she let it be. "Well just be careful." June said as despite not liking it she knew Jack was a huge help to the bots.

"There's nothing to be careful about it's a routine diagnostic." Arcee said as she walked on with Jack close behind her.

Hearing this June grew worried and concerned for her son. "Are you sure you need Jack for that?" June asked and thus Arcee stopped and had an annoyed look on her face.

"Uh-oh." Bulkhead said knowing that June stepped on a landmine there.

Just then Ratchet spoke up as he got Bulkheads attention. "Bulkhead Firestar I need you both back in the field to investigate an odd magnetic disturbance." Ratchet said while looking over to Bulkhead and Firestar.

Hearing her name Firestar stopped her meditation and got back up clearly ready to move. "I'll go with." Miko called out as she ran over.

"Count me in!" Kicker called out and jumped down to join Miko on this.

Seeing this Firestar, Nick, and Bulkhead all knew to stop them. "No Kicker you're staying put, we still have a lot to go over before any of you are combat ready." Nick said as he stopped his workout to speak to the group.

"Wow." Bulkhead jumped in as he stopped both Kicker and Miko from going any further. "Stay put Miko, and Nick is right Kicker until your ready your on standby." Bulkhead said and thus Kicker growled with Miko while Miko pouted as the two walked off back to the others.

"Why aren't you going with him?" June asked as she looked to Miko who was not happy about this as was Kicker.

"Someone thinks it's not safe." Miko said as she looked to Bulkhead.

"And someone thinks I need more, training, before I can fight." Kicker said as he looked to Nick with a scowl.

"Unlike you Kicker I was thrown head first into a trial by fire." Nick defended as Kicker got the better end of the deal here.

"Hate to say this but Nick does have a point." Misha spoke up and thus Kicker glared at her for that while the introvert continued her work on the computer.

"So it's not safe to go investigate some magnetic thing but it's safe for Jack to go with Arcee?" June asked as she was skeptical about this.

"Mom totally different." Jack defended as he knew why it was different.

"Oh how?" June asked with a raised brow and her hands on her hips.

"Mother knows best Jack." Arcee cut in as she had about enough of helicopter mom here. "Bulkhead Firestar wait up I'm going with." Arcee said as she tossed aside the cable and went with the Wrecker and her fellow Femme to check out the magnetic anomaly.

Jack then sighed in defeat as June felt the air grow awkward here. "What did I say?" June asked as Elita had a few ideas here.

"Hey Jack!" Coby called out as he looked to Jack. "Mind helping me with Sol Tekkaman I got some new upgrades I need help installing." Coby said as he opted to help Jack out a bit.

"Sure be there soon man." Jack said and thus went to go help Coby with the armor.

Just then Bud showed up as he looked to June. "So... those snacks?" Bud asked as he looked to June wondering where the snacks were.

(Meanwhile with Breakdown and Shadowstriker)

Shadowstriker was seen holding the scanner as she and Breakdown were walking through the desert looking for the lost Decepticon weapon. "Hey maybe I should hold the scanner." Breakdown offered as he looked to Shadowstriker.

"And risk you crushing it I don't think so Micro Maximus." Shadowstriker said as Breakdown growled at the femme. "Besides this requires someone who as depth perception and you well look in a mirror and see your reflection, you might find Shockwave hiding there." Shadowstriker said as Breakdown glared at her.

"Your hardly one to talk." Breakdown said and thus Shadowstriker glared back. Yes she had ONE good eye and she also had a synthetic eye to replace the good eyes twin when she lost it. The second eyes zoomed in on Breakdown glaring at her.

"Yes I am because I can still see depth unlike you, Breakdown." Shadowstriker said as she had an insult for almost everyone and anyone she meets friends and enemies alike. Just then she smirked torts a pile of rocks where the scanner was pointed at. "Bingo." Shadowstriker said as they found their target. "Ok Micro Maximus start digging." Shadowstriker ordered as she looked to Breakdown with this order while pointing to where she wanted Breakdown to start digging for the lost Decepticon Weapon.

Breakdown transform his hand into his hammer weapon and started smashing up the rocks before him, and with a few more smashes something was seen as Shadowstriker said, "Hold it… we found it."

In the pile of rock was a strange device of some sort with two handles on it with one meant for big hand and the small one meant for smaller hands no doubt it could be used for anyone as Shadowstriker reach down for it, picking it up as she admires the weapon they have founded, unknown to them someone else seem to have found the location of said weapon as well as they ran pass, quickly getting out of site but not unnoticed as both breakdown and Shadowstriker pulled out their weapons and aim it in a direction.

Carefully looking to their surroundings, there was the sound of shifting rock coming behind them as they quickly turn and to their surprise to see Arachnid there as she give a laugh as Shadowstriker said, "Arachnid?"

"Good to see you again Shadowstriker, or at least most of you," Arachnid said as the femme bot got angry at the spider bot for that as she was about to fire but Arachnid is shown to be quicker than her as she quickly rushes her and smack her away while knocking the gauntlet weapon out of her hand while also kick Breakdown hard as he fell back as well.

Arachnid quickly rushes to the weapon as she picks it up as she said, "For me? You shouldn't have."

"I didn't," Breakdown said as he somehow snuck up on Arachnid to grab her arm that held the weapon while Shadowstriker came up and kick her away releasing the weapon from her grip as well with Shadowstriker said to the spider-bot, "You know, I heard the stories of you going rogue Arachnid, but I never thought I see it for myself."

"Let hog-tie her up and haul her in," Breakdown said as he came at the spider-bot with his hammer weapon and try to smash her, but Arachnid was smarter and faster than him as she avoided his strikes as she said, "Huh. The primitive type."

"Like your anything different," Shadowstriker said as she pull out her energy machete weapon then charge at Arachnid intended to bring her in as well, with the spider-bot dodge both of them as they came at her with Breakdown came up to her and try to smash his hammer down upon her, only to miss Arachnid by miles as she was already up some boulders as she said, "Not much for depth perception anymore, are you?"

Well, not much for looks anymore," Breakdown said as he brought out his shoulder cannon with Shadowstriker pull out her blaster as well as they both fire, with many blast shots round went at Arachnid with a missile, she dodge them all with the missile missing as well as it just hit the rock below, making Arachnid vanish in the dust as Shadowstriker said, "Where is she?"

Suddenly there was a sound that came from… underneath, as the ground below Shadowstriker collapse down, making her fall down into a hole, while quickly Arachnid's legs came up and wrap around breakdown pulling him down into the ground as well.

Breakdown transform his hand into his hammer weapon and started smashing up the rocks before him, and with a few more smashes something was seen as Shadowstriker said, "Hold it… we found it."

In the pile of rock was a strange device of some sort with two handles on it with one meant for big hand and the small one meant for smaller hands no doubt it could be used for anyone as Shadowstriker reach down for it, picking it up as she admires the weapon they have founded, unknown to them someone else seem to have found the location of said weapon as well as they ran pass, quickly getting out of site but not unnoticed as both breakdown and Shadowstriker pulled out their weapons and aim it in a direction.

Carefully looking to their surroundings, there was the sound of shifting rock coming behind them as they quickly turn and to their surprise to see Arachnid there as she give a laugh as Shadowstriker said, "Arachnid?"

"Good to see you again Shadowstriker, or at least most of you," Arachnid said as the femme bot got angry at the spider bot for that as she was about to fire but Arachnid is shown to be quicker than her as she quickly rushes her and smack her away while knocking the gauntlet weapon out of her hand while also kick Breakdown hard as he fell back as well.

Arachnid quickly rushes to the weapon as she picks it up as she said, "For me? You shouldn't have."

"I didn't," Breakdown said as he somehow snuck up on Arachnid to grab her arm that held the weapon while Shadowstriker came up and kick her away releasing the weapon from her grip as well with Shadowstriker said to the spider-bot, "You know, I heard the stories of you going rogue Arachnid, but I never thought I see it for myself."

"Let hog-tie her up and haul her in," Breakdown said as he came at the spider-bot with his hammer weapon and try to smash her, but Arachnid was smarter and faster than him as she avoided his strikes as she said, "Huh. The primitive type."

"Like your anything different," Shadowstriker said as she pull out her energy machete weapon then charge at Arachnid intended to bring her in as well, with the spider-bot dodge both of them as they came at her with Breakdown came up to her and try to smash his hammer down upon her, only to miss Arachnid by miles as she was already up some boulders as she said, "Not much for depth perception anymore, are you?"

Well, not much for looks anymore," Breakdown said as he brought out his shoulder cannon with Shadowstriker pull out her blaster as well as they both fire, with many blast shots round went at Arachnid with a missile, she dodge them all with the missile missing as well as it just hit the rock below, making Arachnid vanish in the dust as Shadowstriker said, "Where is she?"

Suddenly there was a sound that came from… underneath, as the ground below Shadowstriker collapse down, making her fall down into a hole, while quickly Arachnid's legs came up and wrap around breakdown pulling him down into the ground as well.

Eventually they arrived at the top of the hill as Bulkhead looked to the scanner. "It looks like Ratchet's magnetic flux is coming from." Bulkhead began as they soon heard the sound of fighting from on ahead.

"Well you don't see that every day." Firestar said as they arrived to find Breakdown and Shadowstriker taking on Arachnid.

Arachnid managed to knock down Breakdown and in turn made a run for the Gauntlet only for Breakdown to get back up and grab her spider legs. This in turn led to Shadowstriker zooming in and taking it as she held it. But once that was done Arachnid kicked Breakdown and freed herself before going after Shadowstriker who was disarmed of the gauntlet by the rogue femme when she proceeded to kick it out of the Femme Cons servo. This in turn caused Breakdown to grab it as Shadowstriker and Arachnid began to duke it out.

Seeing this Arcee glared as she saw the Femme responsible for the death of Tailgate and Red Alert. "Arachnid." Arcee snarled as she clenched her servo into a fist.

"And both Breakdown and Shadowstriker." Miko said as she heard about the femme con who arrived with Nightbird and the Combaticons. "Your arch enemies and their mashing it up." Miko said as she looked to Bulkhead and Arcee on this.

During this Arachnid had switched targets as Breakdown had unknowingly activated the gauntlet and had the large Decepticon pinned until Shadowstriker jumped in with her machete and swung it at Arachnid who was forced to dodge it.

"Over that." Firestar said as she looked to the Gauntlet. "The source of the Magnetic disturbance." Firestar said and thus Kicker began to speak up.

"Ok so what's the plan?" Kicker asked and thus Firestar grabbed Kicker and put him on the ground. Kicker was of course scowling as he was then joined by a pouting Miko before Firestar spoke up.

"Kicker you stay here and protect Miko with your life. Miko you stay put and don't leave Kickers side." Firestar said as she looked to the human girl and young Tekkaman.

In turn the three converted their arms to their guns and got ready to move in. As they head on through Kicker scowled as he looked to Miko. "Well this sucks!" Kicker scowled as he sat down on the ground cross legged with his arms crossed over each other while being stuck on Miko duty here.

"How do you think I feel?" Miko asked as she leaned against the stone with a bot mash about to happen any moment and not being allowed to see it.

Just then they heard the sound of rocks moving and thus looked to the source of it. "Miko did you hear that?" Kicker asked as he looked to Miko.

"Yeah I did." Miko said and thus the two got moving to investigate the scene.

When they went to check it out they were shocked to see what they found there. "Well you don't see that every day." Kicker said suddenly as he saw what was there.

(Meanwhile at the battle)

Breakdown jumped down and slammed his hammer to where Arachnid was only for his attack to miss when Arachnid weaved around him. Once that was done Arachnid managed to knock Breakdown off his feet and thus dropped the gauntlet. But before Arachnid could take it she was kicked to the side by Shadowstriker who began to reach for it.

"Sorry better luck next time." Shadowstriker said only for the gauntlet to be shot away from her. "Oh come on!" Shadowstriker yelled and thus looked to the source to find Arcee, Bulkhead, and Firestar here.

Seeing this Arachnid smirked at the new arrivals. "Arcee... and look a couple of new partners for me to snuff out." Arachnid said as Firestar had one blaster armed and one servo on her sword.

"Bulkhead and Firestar one of them is your sparring partner isn't he?" Shadowstriker asked as she looked to Breakdown.

"Yeah that's him." Breakdown said as he looked to Shadowstriker.

Seeing this Arcee took charge for this. "Launch me." Arcee said and thus the plan was in motion. Lifting one of her treads Arcee stepped on Bulkheads waiting servo to which he then used to launch the two wheeler to the sky. While airborne Arcee began to open fire down upon the three cons who began to scatter.

During this Firestar came down and began firing at Shadowstriker who back flipped away to avoid the shots before returning fire. Firestar managed to avoid it before she drew her sword and swung it down on Shadowstriker who blocked it with her machete. The two parted ways as they began to circle the other sizing each other up.

Nearby Arcee charged at Breakdown who in response roared in challenge and went after Arcee. Just then Arachnid jumped in and got in Breakdown's way. "NO! She's mine!" Arachnid called out and thus went after Arcee.

Breakdown stood there for a moment until Bulkhead suddenly came in and smacked his wrecking ball into Breakdown's face knocking the one optic Decepticon down. "Watch out for." Bulkhead began only for Arcee to cut in.

"Got it!" Arcee called out and thus had her blades come forth before charging at Arachnid. In turn the battle began as Arcee used her arm blades to fight her enemy while Arachnid used her spider legs as part of her own melee moves. As they continued to do battle Arcee managed to get a good hit in on Arachnid's face spilling the spider femme's Energon for it.

Meanwhile over with Firestar and Shadowstriker the two were doing battle as they swung their weapons about. They did this for a bit as Shadowstriker with her weapon in a reverse grip was keeping up on the defensive.

Miko went back to check up on the fight while kicker was doing something behind some rocks with what both of them founded, as Miko saw the action with everyone going back to back while facing down their rivals as Miko said, "Whoa, they are good together. Smack down for the scrapbook."

Miko pulled out her phone and started to take a lot of pics, as the three Autobots were fighting against their arch-enemies well as Arcee block, counter, and parry against Arachnid.

Bulkhead clash with Breakdown, as the Con was pushing back Bulk a bit, he wound counter using a head-butt against him, making breakdown stumble back while Bulkhead gotten another hit on breakdown sending him flying back.

Firestar and Shadowstriker were evenly match as Firestar is skilled in fast with her sword, Shadowstriker shows she wasn't a slouch with her machete despite her appearance of being mix of different parts as she use very aggressive move to keep Firestar at bay a few times with their weapons hit against each other as they try to overcome the other until Shadowstriker knock some dirt up into Firestar's face to make her close her eyes for a moment, at that moment the femme con strike at the samurai bot to end her, but at that moment Firestar didn't hesitated in her move as despite her eyes being close she charge forward and gotten the first hit on Shadowstriker before she could land her hit.

Arcee was pushing Arachnid back a bit as the spider-bot try to stab at the transforming motorcycle bot with her legs, she easily dodge them and came up to her with a double kick to her face sending her back.

AS breakdown was recovering he was suddenly hit by the two Femme bots that came at him suddenly, bringing them all down as the 3 Autobots stood above them triumphantly unaware of the gauntlet that was near breakdown as he came too, he saw it and pick it up quickly while he said, "Thank you."

He quickly turn it on as Arachnid was shock that breakdown was using it while Shadowstriker didn't give a damn as she knew breakdown would use it against their enemy as Arachnid said, "Do you know what that does? It isn't a toy!"

"It's more than we can say the same to you deserter," Shadowstriker said as she turn to breakdown and said to him, "Do it."

Breakdown smile like it would be his pleasure as raise his arm while Arachnid took off running not wanting to be caught in whatever that's about to happen with Arcee chase after her, firing her blaster at the spider-bot while she digs herself an escape route with Arcee keep going until she reach the hole and fire down into it hoping she can get a hit on the spider femme.

With Miko as she kept taking pics, suddenly some rocks, spare change that came out of Miko's pocket, and her phone soon went flying over to Breakdown as she called out, "Hey!"

Bulkhead and Firestar were about to attack again, breakdown aim the gauntlet at them, causing both of them to fall down to an invisible force before being pulled in as well as bulkhead said, "Hey!"

Firestar acted fast and stabbed her sword into the ground and used it to anchor herself there. Thankfully it slowed her down but she was still being pulled in by Breakdown. Nearby Arcee was pulled back as she got dragged away by the gauntlet in use. "What is going?" Arcee asked as she struggled to keep grounded but to no avail. Once the two bots got close enough Breakdown lifted up his arm and in turn began to lift Arcee and Bulkhead to the air.

Firestar summoned an arm blade and after flipped over stabbed it into the ground and in turn further slowed herself from being dragged over to Breakdown. "Well this is amusing." Shadowstriker said as she put her hands on her hips watching the show.

"Hey what does this switch do?" Breakdown asked as he took notice to another switch on the Gauntlet. In turn Breakdown hit the switch and the result was the Polarity Gauntlet reversing its pole and thus magnetizing Miko's pocket items such as her phone onto Breakdown. This in turn sent the three bots flying to the nearby rocks where they crashed and created a dust cloud.

After seeing this Miko ran over as she had to tell the Bots what she and Kicker had found. During this Shadowstriker smirked as Breakdown laughed a bit. "Lord Megatron will never doubt us again." Shadowstriker said as she and Breakdown then transformed and drove off with their prize in hand.

While the two cons drove off Miko ran over to Bulkhead as she noted Arcee was missing. "Bulkhead the cons are getting away!" Miko called out as she looked to Bulkhead who was moaning a bit showing he was in a bit of a daze. Just then Miko noticed something on Bulkheads chaste and thus smiled. "Hey my phone." Miko said and in turn tried to yank her phone from Bulkhead's body but to her shock it would not budge. After trying for a bit Miko got angry and eventually gave up as she was not pleased. "It's stuck!" Miko cried out as she saw her phone wasn't going anywhere now.

"Strange." Firestar said as she walked forth while sheathing her sword similar to how humans would sheath a Katana. "But it seems we are a Bot short." Firestar said as she saw Arcee was missing as did Bulkhead.

"Where's Arcee?" Bulkhead asked voicing Firestar's question.

Miko growled a bit as she was clearly not happy about this. "Why don't you just marry her already!?" Miko yelled as she was clearly forgetting something.

"I'm right behind you." Arcee was heard much to everyone's shock here.

In turn Bulkhead got up trying to look for Arcee while Firestar and Miko saw something behind Bulkhead. "Where?" Bulkhead asked as he can hear Arcee but he can't see her.

As Miko and Firestar looked at Bulkheads back it was clear they were both shocked at what they found. "Oh my." Firestar said as she saw what was on the Wreckers back.

"Let's just say she's... got your back." Miko said and thus Bulkhead turned around and in turn while looking for Arcee revealed that Arcee was stuck to his back.

In turn Arcee was trying to get loose as it was clear she was currently stuck to Bulkheads back like a magnet. When that failed Arcee gave up and in turn realized she was not going anywhere. "Scrap." Arcee cursed as she knew this was going to be a long day.

"MIKO WHERE ARE YOU!" Kicker called out and thus Miko went wide eyed remembering what she and Kicker had found a little bit ago.

"Oh right... um get this our problems may multiply." Miko said as she knew why she came up here.

"Why?" Firestar asked as she Miko got to it.

"You know that girl we're supposed to fine?" Miko asked and in turn the three bots went wide eyed to this. They in turn ran over to where Kicker was and when they did what they found shocked them.

Laying down in the shade tired and nude with only a tarp to cover her body was Shara Carter the girl they had been trying to find. "Ok I take back the Scrap and replace it with a Frag." Arcee said as she realized this was going to be a VERY long day.

(Meanwhile over with Breakdown and Shadowstriker)

The two cons were driving down the empty road as they drove off. "You seem quiet Shadowstriker what gives?" Breakdown asked as he wondered why the femme went quiet after they left.

"Arachnid, she doesn't normally run off like that." Shadowstriker said as she drove behind Breakdown. "Especially if there's something she really wants." Shadowstriker said a she felt something was amiss here.

"Well whatever we got what we came for so we're done here." Breakdown said and thus began to call Decepticon Command.

"Are we?" Shadowstriker asked as she tried to think. Arachnid was always good at getting what she wanted most times undetected but her best skill was hunting she knew how to track her prey and she even knew how to study it enough to... trap it. That was when it hit her and when she realized this she reacted. "Breakdown stop!" Shadowstriker called out only for Breakdown to stop too late as a boulder came in and nearly hit them. Acting fast Breakdown had swerved around the boulder coming at him while Shadowstriker did the same. But in doing so Breakdown drove straight into a web line that saw him trapped once he transformed to robot mode.

Shadowstriker was smart and transformed back to robot mode before jumping over the trap and sliding on the ground. She then rolled and got on her knees to a crouch but her victory was short as she then saw web at her feet where she landed. "Scrap." Shadowstriker cursed and thus was yanked to a web trap set up by Arachnid. Breakdown meanwhile snarled in rage showing he was not happy about this situation.

(Back with the Autobots)

Kicker was tending to Shara as he fed her a small canteen of water just enough to help her as Miko and Firestar were trying to separate Bulkhead and Arcee. "You've been magnetized? Together?" Ratchet asked as he was told what had happened.

"It seems so." Firestar answered as she let go seeing the task was useless while Miko did the same.

"And the device that did this is on its way to Megatron." Bulkhead said as he spoke into the communicator.

(Meanwhile back at the base)

"A polarity Gauntlet. A deceptively simple but diabolical creation," Ratchet said as he figure out what the weapon is as Arcee asked him, "Just tell me you can unhitch us, Ratchet."

"It may simply be a residual magnetic charge providing your current... attraction," Ratchet said as suddenly Miko gotten on the coms, no doubt someone transmitting for her as she said, "They're not attracted to each other!"

"Miko, I think he means they polarity attracted, not emotional," Misha said with Miko then spoken up and said, "Oh."

"But I'm afraid that retrieving the gauntlet is our surest bet for reversing its effect. Once Megatron gets his hands on the gauntlet," Ratchet said as Jack spoken up finishing for ratchet, "He'll use it for a whole lot more than attaching notes and family photos to the fridge."

"Jack, I'm not following," June said sounding worry about the situation as ratchet soon explain to her as he said, "Madam, we are forged of metal alloy, if Megatron could repel us with the flick of a switch, we might never again have another shot at him."

"Instant force field," Raf said as Nick was hearing what they were saying as he walk up onto the platform while Ratchet said to them, "Worse yet, he might use it to meld us all into a scrap pile. The good news is, the gauntlet hasn't traveled far. I would strongly advice pursuit."

(The desert)

Bulkhead stood up as he bang his fist into his other open hand as he said, "WE can catch up faster on wheels."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. And snap me in half?" Arcee said as Kicker suddenly said, "Is there anything else you can do undo the effect of the polarity?"

"I hope that it's you who is magnetized as well Kicker, otherwise I'll change your name from Kicker to Kick rear end!" Nick voice came through the coms as Kicker eyes widen to this as he said "Oh, hey Nick!"

"Save it Kicker. You get your ass back to base right now, otherwise I will not be held responsible for what I will do to you if you don't," Nick said as Kicker try began to say, "Wait Nick, we need to tell you we found-

"I don't want to hear your excuses Kicker, get back to base now we don't need you to pull a Miko," Nick said angrily as Miko spoken up on the coms as she said, "D-boy you will want to hear this for real."

"You too Miko?" Nick said as he can be heard signing loudly as he said to her, "Fine, what is it that you found?"

"We found your sister man, she's here right now," Kicker said as he look over to Shara who was still out of it.

(Back at the base)

Nick stood there in shock by this news as everyone was surprise by this news as Sierra was the first one to say, "You guys found Shara, that great. You hear that Nick, you're going to sees your sister soon."

"Y-you found Shara?" Nick first said recovering from the shock of the news he just heard as Kicker said, "Yea, and she looks pretty worn down, looks like she been walking for a while now."

(The desert)

Miko smile to the news of telling nick they found his sister, but her expression went from happy to afraid as she said, "Ah oh."

"What is it?" Kicker said as Miko pointed up to the sky as everyone look and saw to their shock who was flying by on that ray like Radan as Arcee said, "Its Evil, he's here, near our location!"

"Autobots change of plans." Elita was heard as she came on the communication link. Firestar you take Miko, Kicker, and Shara to safety wait for Evil to fly by and." Elita began but was then cut off by a new event.

(Back at the Desert)

Evil was hovering around on his search of Rapier. He knew she was in the area from his last mental scan of the location. It was like a game of hot and cold for him as he tried to locate her. Thankfully the link was still active for him so this in turn allowed him to activate his beacon to resonate with other Tekkaman in the area. As his forehead peace began to flash with the same rhythm as a beacon his eyes flashed as he then detected her.

"There you are." Evil said as he finally located his missing sister.

(Back with the group)

Shara's eyes flashed open as she cried out in pain when her mind was once more assaulted by her elder brother Cain's probing to locate her. As she grabbed her head the Tekk-Set crystal's crest appeared on her forehead as this got everyone to panic. "Oh shit!" Kicker cursed and thus they had to move now.

"Get in!" Firestar called out and thus transformed into her car mode.

Nearby Evil saw them and was coming their way as the two magnetized bots saw this. "Arcee you and Bulkhead go after the Polarity Gauntlet we'll try to get Shara away from Evil!" Firestar called out and thus the bots got moving.

(Back at the Base)

"Dammit!" Nick cursed as he realized Evil was coming for them and looked ready to move out.

"Wow wait kid!" Ironhide called out when he saw Nick was about to make a break for it to take on Evil. "You're still benched until Pegas upgrades are finished." Ironhide said knowing Nick needed this upgrade to handle Evil's new weapon.

"Ratchet how long till those upgrades are done?" Elita asked taking command of the situation.

"Not long an hour at most." Ratchet said as he saw the progress of Pegas new upgrades.

"Get working then." Elita ordered and thus turned her attention to Ironhide and Chromia. "You two are with me once Pegas is up and running again we need to provide aid." Elita said making it clear they needed this done now.

"Right!" Chromia and Ironhide confirmed and thus they quickly began to get ready to head out.

(Back at the desert)

AS Bulkhead and Arcee ran for it Bulkhead began to shoot at Evil who avoided the attacks with ease. But instead of attacking them he went straight for Firestar who was in vehicle mode now. "Scrap he knows!" Arcee cursed and tried to fire at Evil while stuck on Bulkheads back. Kicker and Miko tried to help Shara as Firestar departed with them in the back seat.

"Damn Cybertronian's!" Evil roared out and went on the attack against the two.

Knowing they could not catch up Bulkhead and Arcee while stuck together the duo went for the Polarity gauntlet. Right now the Gauntlet was more important than just sitting around waiting for something to happen. "Think they'll be ok?" Bulkhead asked as he was worried for Miko.

"Let's hope so this was not what I had in mind when I let Miko and Kicker come along." Arcee said as she saw Firestar drive off with Evil close on his tail.

(Meanwhile over with the Decepticons)

Breakdown and Shadowstriker were currently covered in web as they were pinned to the wall. "It' fits!" Arachnid said as she had the Polarity Gauntlet active on her right hand. "You know a girl can never have too many accessories." Arachnid said as she loved her knew toy and was almost excited to see what it can and will do to her enemies.

"You were a Decepticon once we can bring the prize to Megatron together." Breakdown offered no doubt trying to bargain here.

"Save your breath Breakdown she got what she wants the good it will do her." Shadowstriker said adding the last bit with a growl.

"She's right, why would I rejoin that boys club and serve under Nightbird the president of the Megatron fan club?" Arachnid asked as she glared at the group. "I struck out on my own because I don't like to share." Arachnid said and thus Shadowstriker scoffed to this.

"Please the truth is you couldn't handle the beatings Nightbird put you under, not like they were ill-deserved all things considering." Shadowstriker said as Arachnid tried her best to ignore her on that. "I mean you hardly did much to earn Nightbirds favor and when it came down to it you needed help to snuff her out and still screwed up." Shadowstriker went on and thus Arachnid had enough.

"That arrogant little femme did NOT deserve her rank which she got for sucking up to Megatron!" Arachnid snarled as she glared at Shadowstriker. "And now with this." Arachnid went on as she held the Polarity Gauntlet in her hand. "I now have the perfect repellent for bots and cons alike." Arachnid boasted only for Shadowstriker to scoff.

"And like I said you can't beat her one on one so you need fancy gadgets and outside help just to have a chance to win." Shadowstriker said and thus smirked at Arachnid. "Face it Arachnid your only second best to Nightbird and more so her own personal Starscream." Shadowstriker went on and thus Arachnid snarled and held the gauntlet at Shadowstriker's neck.

"Keep talking and we'll see which part of you is you and which is Shockwaves attachments to you!" Arachnid snarled as she was all but daring Shadowstriker to open her mouth again.

(Meanwhile with Firestar)

Inside the backseat Shara began to come too as she found herself seemingly laying down on the lap of a Japanese Girl. She still felt the ringing in hear head from when Evil tried to locate her and by the sound of things this... car was moving fast.

"W-what?" Shara asked as Miko then saw Shara.

"Hey Kicker Firestar she's awake again!" Miko called out as Kicker was in the passenger seat while Firestar drove.

"Great now we need to keep ugly from catching up!" Kicker called out and just then Firestar swerved causing the group to yelp as no doubt Evil fired down on them. Looking out the window Shara went wide eyed as she saw Evil chasing them down causing her to panic.

"Cain?" Shara called out as she struggled to get loose.

"Wow calm down Joan of Arc we know you're looking for Nick right?" Miko asked as she tried to hold Shara down and when she mentioned Nick Shara was wide eyed to this.

"Nick... you know him?" Shara asked and thus Kicker cut in.

"We're trying to get you to him so just sit tight and 'GAUGH!" Kicker cried out as Firestar narrowly avoided another shot from Evil.

(Tekkaman Evil)

"I suggest you stop while you can Cybertronian your current passenger is my only target!" Evil called out as the Dark Energon infused Tekkaman chased down Firestar.

"Yeah that will not be happening Evil!" Firestar countered as she kept driving hoping to get backup soon and if not an emergency ground bridge to get her and her cargo out of there.

"Fine then, you brought this onto yourself," Evil said as he point his weapon towards her as the Radan he was riding fire shots at Firestar as she avoided them the best she could, unaware to her as Evil raise his weapon while giving it a spin before stopping, holding it like a gaveling then throwing ahead of Firestar.

With evil's weapon flew and impale onto the road ahead, Firestar tire squeal and smoked as she try to break but dealing with how close the weapon was she could not stop completely and just suddenly turn quickly and rolled out of control off the road as she and her passengers were screaming out before she transform into her robot form with the 3 teens falling out during this and separated.

Miko groin as she gotten up looking a bit dizzy from that rolling crash, with kicker try standing up and recovering fast, while Shara moan a bit weakly while still cover in the tarp she is wearing while she stood up and put her hand to her head, seeing a bit of blood that came from a small cut on her head.

Just then she felt Evil present near her as she turn towards him and look on shock to see him there before her as she said, "Evil."

"I finally found you rapier, there is nowhere left to hide from me," Evil said as Shara started to get up and try to run but she was quickly cut off as the Ray looking Radan block her path as Evil said to her, "You cannot run from me anymore rapier, now where is blade?"

Shara didn't say a thing as she didn't know what to do at this moment as she was block both ways but she prepared herself to fight as inside the tarp she held her pink crystal ready to use it until Kicker voice was heard as he yelled out, "TEKK-SETTER!"

Evil soon dodge a beam of light that was coming at him as at that moment a claymore sword came forth and slam into the ground to show Tekkaman Claymore before evil as he said to the evil Tekkaman, "Why fight against blade when I'm here ready to take you down!"

Evil looks at claymore before giving a laugh like he heard a good joke before he said, "You? You're nothing more than a child trying to play hero while trying to face someone leagues above yourself. You stand no chance against me."

"You never know unless I try!" Claymore said as he charge at evil as he leaps up avoiding claymore attack once more while jumping onto his Radan mount and flew up into the sky as he said, "IF you want to fight then, then give it your best shot."

"Not a problem," Kicker said as he leap up into the air using his boosters to fly towards evil as he turn around and flew at Claymore as they clash against each other as their weapon meet.

(Bulkhead and Arcee)

As the two travel through the desert trying to catch up to the cons that had the polarity Gauntlet as they saw the signal was at a standstill, no doubt something was up as they soon arrive at an abandon road that it seem no one had driven on it for years, as they keep on walking, Bulkhead started to make small talk as he said, "Never had eyes in the back of my head before or blasters to cover my rear, and you get a build-in shield."

Bulkhead soon bang on his chest to show he was a tough build guy as Arcee said to him, "Bulkhead, I think we should focus on finding the gauntlet and get it back before going back to the others and help them."

"Don't worry Arcee, Firestar is with them, I'm sure she can protect them well enough," Bulkhead said as Arcee said to him, "Maybe but Evil is stronger than before and there no telling how strong and if Firestar can really handle him or not, I doubt Kicker could help even if he tries."

Come on Arcee, don't be a June and... Ah," Bulkhead said as he just realize what he just said as Arcee said to him, "Y-you think I'm acting like June?"

"Hm," Bulkhead said as Arcee keep on saying, "She's just over-protective alright, and I'm just... protective."

"Totally different," Bulkhead said to try and change the subject as before Arcee could say anything else, the scanner was going on, no doubt it was picking up on the gauntlet as bulkhead said, "The Gauntlet's close."

They soon arrived at an abandoned gas station that was in the middle of the desert that had nothing but spiders and webbing inside, the windows were broken and a door with no handle as it keep opening and closing due to the slight breeze that was blowing by as bulkhead walk by it before checking inside to see nothing was there but knew something was wrong as he transform his arm into a cannon and ready himself for action.

He advance around the gas station and hear struggling sounds of breakdown as Bulkhead turn to see the one eye bot all web up, and to his shock to see Shadow striker was also web up and also taken apart as one of her arms and legs were missing but still alive as the girl give a slight moan.

Suddenly above them Arachnid came forth from on top of the building with the gauntlet in her hand as she came down and face bulkhead as she ask him, "I assume Arcee isn't far behind."

"You might say that." Bulkhead said as he knew Arachnid was in for a surprise. Still so long as Arachnid had the Polarity gauntlet she had the advantage here.

"Blaster hands in the air and turn around." Arachnid ordered with promise to disassemble Bulkhead piece by piece.

"Whatever you say." Bulkhead said while he began to raise his hands on surrender. He glared at Arachnid for a moment before suddenly turning around and in doing so Arcee began to open fire on Arachnid who jumped away to avoid the shots clearly caught by surprise. While trying to get some distance Arachnid got careless and in turn the Polarity Gauntlet was shot out of her hands.

When it hit the ground in front of the tied up Breakdown and Shadowstriker it activated and thus everything metal began to be drawn to it. Arachnid held her ground while Shadowstriker was made to watch as her prosthetic limbs were dragged to the polarity. 'I needed those!' She mentally yelled when she saw her limbs fly to the gauntlet.

Meanwhile with the two magnetized Autobots Bulkhead dug his hands into the ground to keep himself from being dragged to it while struggling a bit. Arcee on the other hand still magnetized to Bulkhead was being pulled in but still unable to be pulled off the Wrecker.

Back over with Shadow Striker and Breakdown the two Decepticons were being pulled off the webbing this whole time until it eventually gave out. This in turn freed them yet without her taken limbs Shadowstriker was forced to the ground. Breakdown to the chance and grabbed the gauntlet before deactivating it and thus ended the magnetic pull from it. During this Shadowstriker glared at Breakdown who then saw the missing limbs of Shadowstriker and got the memo.

"Here." Breakdown said passing the limbs to the cripple.

"Thank you." Shadowstriker said as she crawled over to a safe location to perform emergency repairs... and dine thoughts of tearing Knockout a new one until he provide her adequate replacements for her limbs.

Back with the magnetized Autobots Breakdown and Arachnid surrounded the two bots as Bulkhead was faced with his rival and Arcee was faced with her nemesis. "Still up for a truce muscles?" Arachnid offered as this was a bad thing for them.

"Only because I hate Bulkhead more then I hate you." Breakdown said with his free hand transformed into its hammer form. Then with a savage roar and slammed his hammer into Bulkheads face. This in turn saw Bulkhead responded with a fist to Breakdown's dome. As the two big bots exchanged blows Arcee and Arachnid did the same. But with her current predicament Arcee was at a disadvantage. Case and point when Bulkhead had to turn Arcee lost her balance and focus leaving herself wide open to attack by Arachnid.

Getting annoyed with this turn of events Arcee had to let Bulkhead know. "Bulkhead would you stay still!" Arcee scolded as she then had to black an attack from Arachnid.

"My bad!" Bulkhead responded and in turn laid a powerful blow against Breakdown sending him flying to the ground. Once that was done Bulkhead turned around to face off against Arachnid. "Need a hand?" Bulkhead offered and in Arachnid and the Wrecker began to fight.

"No she's mine!" Arcee declined as she wanted to be the one to snuff out Arachnid.

During this Breakdown smirked as he saw his chance to attack with the Polarity Gauntlet. "Two bots... one stone." Breakdown said and thus used the Polarity Gauntlet on one of the Oil miners and disassembled it to get the larger part of it. Once the part was free he moved it into position and in turn Arcee saw it.

"Bulk duck!" Arcee called out just in time for Bulkhead to turn around.

"Huh?" He asked and thus was hit straight to the head knocking him down and pinning Arcee under him.

Bulkhead was clearly out of it now as Arcee struggled to get free. "Bulkhead get off!" Arcee demanded as she tried to get up. She then cried out in pain when Arachnid stomped on her hand.

"Pinned like a bug." Arachnid said as she glared down upon Arcee with a smirk. "Of course I can think of one permanent way out of your predicament." Arachnid said as she had her spider legs ready.

As Breakdown began to approach he smirked over to Arachnid as they both got a shot at their rivals. "I'll take top side." Breakdown said at least until Shadowstriker was heard.

"Breakdown Arachnid fall back!" Shadowstriker called out and in turn Breakdown and Arachnid were hit by laser fire. Charging from the ground bridge was Chromia as she fired upon the two providing backup to her sister-in-arms, Arcee and her Fellow Autobot Bulkhead. Seeing the chance Bulkhead fired at Breakdown and as he was stunned he got up and bashed him back where the Polarity gauntlet fell out of his hands. Once Bulkhead was up Arcee followed suit as now the two Bots were freed.

"Took you long enough." Arcee said as she looked to Chromia.

"Sorry I got held up helping finish Pegas' new upgrade." Chromia defended as she was ready for battle. "But fight now talk later!" Chromia called out and thus the battle began.

Shadowstriker fired her rifle off at Chromia who avoided the shots with ease. She charged in returning fire until she nailed Shadowstriker in one of her fake limbs. This of course caused her to cry out in pain as those limbs ironically were a weak point thanks to Shockwaves method of putting her back together. This gave Chromia the opening she needed to knee Shadowstriker in the face before using hand to hand to flip Shadowstriker over. When Chromia had Shadowstriker pinned the Decepticon Femme then converted her actual arm to a blaster and fired at Chromia forcing Elita's second in command to put some distance there.

Meanwhile over with Breakdown the large Con went for the Polarity Gauntlet only for Arcee to get there first. With her treads she forced the Gauntlet away and proceeded to flip over Breakdown who was on the ground. She then slammed her treads on the large Con's back before following it up with a combo attack on his face. Breakdown of course tried to smack her back only for it to do little damage to her.

Nearby Arachnid saw her prize but alas Bulkhead was in her way. "You wanna dance?" Bulkhead offered in challenge as he glared at Arachnid.

"You're not my type." Arachnid said and thus Bulkhead charged at Arachnid. Following this up Arachnid tried to drill into Bulkhead before jumping over him and gunning for the Polarity Gauntlet.

"Scrap." Bulkhead cursed and in turn Arachnid grabbed the Gauntlet.

Once she had the Polarity Gauntlet the Decepticon Femme began to put it to use. "Let's leave the boys to themselves." Arachnid said as she activated the Gauntlet and used it on Arcee to pull her in. Eventually Arachnid and Arcee were glaring at each other as Arcee was stuck to Arachnid's Polarity Gauntlet. "That would be the up close and personal setting." Arachnid said as she glared at Arcee. In turn they began to continue their battle in earnest as they sent punches at each other with their free hands and high kicks to the face.

Nearby Bulkhead and Breakdown continued to do battle as the two powerhouses were clearly in it to win it against their respective rivals with a mighty roar from both. They sent powerful punch after punch at each other until Breakdown managed to get the upper hand and send Bulkhead flying from it. Following it up came Bulkhead as he got back up and proceeded to fire off a powerful shot at Breakdown sending him flying back for it.

Back with Chromia vs Shadowstriker knowing her weakness Chromia coordinated her attacks at Shadowstriker's fake limbs as it was clear without them she could not fight properly. It was a miracle she even remained a Decepticon after what Shockwave did to her when he welded her back together. Grabbing her fake arm Chromia twisted it and with a kick to her fake leg forced Shadowstriker to her knees as the Decepticon Femme roared in pain since her body rejected those limbs. Chromia had the upper hand but despite this Shadowstriker forced her body to move. She pulled out her machete weapon and stabbed her actual leg with it using the pain to force her body to get back up.

Chromia was surprised by this but Shadowstriker roared out and forced her body to maneuver and twist before kicking Chromia in the face. Once she was freed her arm and leg glitches a bit causing her to hit her fake limb with her actual arm. "Keep it together." Shadowstriker ordered herself as she then glared at Chromia with contempt.

Back with Arachnid and Arcee the two femme's continued their battle as Arcee had her arm blade active. Fighting with one arm was difficult but not impossible and Arcee was known to adapt quickly. Eventually Arcee managed to get a good shot in on Arachnid causing the Decepticon Femme to snarl at the two wheeler. She then moved and got Arcee pinned down and began striking at her with her spider like arms. Arce of course avoided it but it was clear she was pinned down as Arachnid smirked down on her.

"One hand tied five more to play with." Arachnid taunted and thus strike her hand down intent on ripping off Arcee's face. Luckily Arcee dodged it and thus had her own retort to Arachnid.

"Quality not Quantity." Arcee taunted and thus forced Arachnid's arm down and proceeded to deactivate the Polarity Gauntlet. Once she did so she proceeded to force it off of Arachnid and thus now had it in her hands. Seeing this Arachnid went to her spider like state and growled at Arcee clearly angry about this. In response Arcee activated the Polarity Gauntlet as Arachnid charged at her. Using it she forced Arachnid back and threw her where she hit the ground and rolled a bit. "Opposites do NOT attract." Arcee said with a smirk on her face.

Nearby as Breakdown was getting out of the rubble Bulkhead shot him into he glared at Bulkhead clearly intended to harm him. He then roared out and went on the attack while Bulkhead did the same with his wrecking ball active. With his hammer active Breakdown swung at Bulkhead who met the attack with his mace only for something strange to happen. The attacks met but caused the two to be shot away from each other due to what may be a magnetic push. Following it up Breakdown fired off a rocket from his shoulder gun to which Bulkhead tried to stop. But it seems it was not needed as the rocket was forced back before it could even touch Bulkhead where it then flew at Breakdown. Breakdown in response tried to shield himself but instead the rocket was forced upward by the same force that protected Bulkhead.

Breakdown was shocked by this as he quickly put the pieces together. "We can't touch metal." Breakdown said as he saw what this meant for them.

"We're polarized." Bulkhead added as this meant he and Breakdown can't hurt each other like this.

Arcee smirked to this only to end up crying out as a web hit the Polarity Gauntlet and yanked it out of her hand. Arachnid smirked at her prize and got what she wanted. "Always leave on a high note." Arachnid said and thus transformed to make her getaway.

"Bulkhead the Gauntlet!" Arcee called out as nearby Chromia and Shadowstriker were currently locked in a struggle.

Acting fast Bulkhead charged after Arachnid as thankfully her chosen vehicle mode lacked thrust like most cons. Once he got close he grabbed onto the Femme and began to weigh her down. As Arachnid lost control of her flight pattern nearby Chromia forced Shadowstriker back and proceeded to grab her. "Get ready Bulk!" Chromia called out and thus spun around before throwing Shadowstriker over to Arachnid. Bulkhead once he got close threw Arachnid at Breakdown thus causing a domino effect for the trio. Shadowstriker hit Arachnid before Arachnid hit Breakdown. The three crashed into a pile and from the looks of it were currently out cold.

Once the dust began to settle Arcee picked up the Polarity Gauntlet and gave it a small look over. "Let's finish this." Bulkhead said as he was ready to put this to bed.

"And risk becoming twins again?" Arcee asked as she began to walk off with Chromia.

"That would be wise." Chromia said as she did not want to be a part of that this time.

(Meanwhile back with the Tekkaman)

Claymore and Evil continued their battle but it was clear Evil had the upper hand. Combat training being among them and that's not even factoring in the Dark Energon flowing through his veins. Evil easily met Claymore's wilder and heavy attacks with ease the two continued to do battle as Claymore knew his own beam weapon would be useless against Evil in this regard. Evil easily avoided each attack as Claymore tried his damn hardest to get Evil.

Evil was just toying with Claymore at this point as it was clear he didn't seen Blades new lapdog as much of a threat. He blocked an attack from Claymore before pushing him back from it. "Pathetic..." Evil said before Claymore roared out and charged in. But then to Claymore's shock Evil caught Claymore's sword before pulling him in and grabbing his arm. Once that was done he twisted it enough that it caused Claymore pain before using his thrusters to force Claymore to the ground.

"Kicker!" Firestar and Miko cried out when they saw that Kicker was down. Claymore had his foot on Claymore's chest glaring down on him with a cruel chuckle from his voice.

"Just like I said, pathetic. Just a child playing hero." Evil said as he looked ready to end Claymore here and now.

Nearby Shara was wide eyed to this as she quickly realized that Kicker was about to be killed by Cain. Looking at her Tekk-Set Crystal she knew that even if she can't win she can at least even the playing fields until help arrived or they can make their escape. Seeing this Miko grew worried for Shara wondering what she was thinking.

Just then much to Miko's shock Shara charged forth ready to transform. "Shara wait!" Miko cried out but alas it was too late to stop her.

With her crystal at the ready Shara began to transform into Tekkaman once more. "TEKK-SETTER!" Shara invoked and thus activated her crystal. Then in a flash of magenta energy Shara blasted off torts Evil who was about to finish off Claymore. The shot forced Evil to dodge and thus freeing Claymore from his grip.

Evil glared at the light as it began to die down revealing it to be none other than Tekkaman Rapier as she stood tall before her elder brother. "Ah Rapier I was starting to grow worried that you would never join us." Evil said as he looked upon his younger sister. "Now out of respect for our past I will ask you again have you met with Blade and if so where is he?" Evil asked only for Rapier to draw her weapon and held it in a reverse grip similar to that of a Kunoichi without training. "I see... then DIE YOU FAILING PIECE OF SHIT!" Evil roared out and charged at Rapier only for Claymore to jump back in and give Rapier some cover.

Seeing her chance Rapier charged in and began to help Claymore fight off Evil. Despite the added aid of Rapier the battle was still not going in their favor as Rapier seemed weaker somehow. She sent forth a wire to Evil's weapon only for Evil to laugh at this and yank Rapier to himself. He swung her to the ground nearby to which Rapier cried out before she hit the ground. Once this was done Evil charged in to take her out. Thankfully Claymore showed up and blocked the attack and gave Rapier time to use her thrusters to fly out of the way and put distance between herself and Evil.

But Evil didn't end it there as he forced Claymore back before grabbing him by the face and slamming him into the ground. He then activated his boosters and flew straight at Rapier while dragging Claymore across the ground leaving a trail of destruction in his wake. Once he let go of Claymore he went after Rapier who was now on the defensive against Evil. Nearby Firestar and Miko saw the battle and knew this was not looking good for them.

(Back at the base)

Chromia had left not too long ago as Firestar was then heard on the communicators. "Ratchet we need that backup ASAP I don't think Kicker and Shara are going to last much longer!" Firestar called out as it was clear they were running out of time.

But then it seems that luck was on their side here as Perceptor finished his work on Pegas with Jetfire and Ratchet. "It's done!" Perceptor called out as Pegas was back together ready to deploy.

"Ratchet lock onto Firestar's coordinates and open a ground bridge, Jetfire Ironhide you two are with me prepare to storm the battle." Elita ordered and thus they got moving.

"Get ready kid." Ironhide called out as he had his trailer attached one more with Pegas on it.

Nick was already set up as he looked to Pegas. "Pegas! Tekk-Setter!" Blade called out just as the Ground Bridge began to open.

"ROGER!" Pegas responded and thus opened his interlock chamber. Nick charged in and once he was inside the Elita and Ironhide drive into the portal with Jetfire flying into the portal.

(Battle)

Eventually the battle took a south turn as Rapier was reaching her limit and thus Evil took advantage of it. "DIE RAPIER!" Evil called out and thus Rapier was barely able to dodge it. The attack hit her side leaving a deep gash that drew blood HER blood and caused Rapier to then cry out in pain. Rapier was then on the ground as her blood dripped onto the ground making a small puddle of it as she whimpered in pain.

"Shara." Evil spoke getting Rapier's attention. "Trust me when I say that doing this gives me no sort of pleasure what so ever." Evil said as he looked to his younger sister with pity. He truly did not wish to do this to her prolong her suffering as he has knowing full well what the inevitable was for her. "You were unable to become a perfect Tekkaman like myself." Evil said as he looked to Shara who glared at her elder brother.

"Perfect you!?" She demanded as she glared at Evil. "The only one who came out perfect was Nick! You had to use that Dark Energon to become what you are!" Shara yelled as she glared at her elder brother.

"I'm sorry but as your elder brother... allow me to make this as quick and painless as I can." Evil said and thus prepared to end his sister's life. After all it is a mercy at this point knowing what was to become of Shara soon. In turn Evil began to charge up his Voltekka to put Shara out of her misery once and for all.

Shara closed her eyes so she would not see it coming knowing what came next. "Nick!" She cried out and as if God heard her prayers her savior arrived.

Just then laser fire shot at Evil and from nearby an opened Ground Bridge was seen. Jetfire flew out with Elita and Ironhide coming out in vehicle mode. Following it up the two four wheelers entered robot mode and opened fire on Evil. But from behind Ironhide Pegas flew out and from there his top hatch opened to reveal Tekkaman Blade coming out. "EVIL!" Blade roared out and charged at Evil intent on saving Shara and Kicker while Pegas opened fire on Evil before Blade flew over him.

Glaring at Blade Evil's eyes flashed crimson no doubt angered at Blade butting in. "Son of a... you really know how to ruin things!" Evil roared out and then charged at Blade.

The two brothers began to do battle once more as they clashed in the sky. Clearly both intended to end the other while the Autobots moved in on Shara's location. Firestar and Miko got to her as they helped the young girl back up as best they could. "Don't worry we got you." Miko said and thus Kicker and Jetfire flew up to give Nick a hand.

"Hey jackass!" Kicker called out and thus he slashed at Evil who dodged the attack. While Kicker landed on the back of Jetfire he had to admit this was a cool concept and could understand why Nick had Pegas now.

Once this was done Blade clashed with Evil again but Evil would not be deterred. With a savage roar he pushed Blade back as Blade began to fly upward giving Evil a clear shot. "You're not going anywhere brother!" Evil began as he began to charge up his attack. "PSI VOLTEKKA!" Evil invoked and in turn fired off his weapon at Blade. Blade flew upward with the beam curling and chasing after him in an attempt to hit the Space Knight leader.

Seeing his chance Blade opted to use the new upgrades Pegas was given to take on Evil's weapon. "Pegas Hi-Colt Voltekka set up!" Blade ordered and thus the conversion began.

Pegas wings began fold up as his arms twisted so their weapons were pointed forward as they flew. From there handles came out which Blade grabbed on to followed up with the vents on the back of his shoulders lighting up and the front side producing connectors to link up to Pegas. Once that was done Blade's shoulder ports opened revealing the lenses for his Voltekka ready and prime to fire. Once he was ready he took aim at Evil knowing what came next. "Hi-Colt!" He began and thus the weapons began to charge up as Pegas new upgrade worked in conjunction with Blade's attack giving it a more powerful attack than ever before. Ratchet and Raf were actually inspired by the failed Volcano Science Experiment from way back when for this weapon. "VOLTEKKA!" Blade finished and thus fired off his beam and in turn it went straight for Evil.

To Evil utter shock his attack was overpowered by this new Hi-Colt Voltekka and thus was coming straight for him. "WHAT?!" Evil roared out and thus tried to escape. The key word being tried as the beam was too large for him to avoid and thus he was hit by it full blast. With that the battle was over and in turn Blade began to calm down from the ordeal. Right now he needed to focus on Shara... Kicker can wait his turn.

(Scene Break Later at the Base)

As everyone began to enter the base Arcee, Bulkhead, and Chromia were the last to arrive. Arcee was seen giving the Polarity Gauntlet to Ratchet so they may store it away safely. "Souvenir but..." Bulkhead began allowing Arcee to pick it up.

"We don't advice indoor use." Arcee causing Miko to gag to this.

"Eww they even finish each other's sentences." Miko gagged while Kicker walked passed her.

"Excuse me while I go hurl." Kicker said while walking pass Miko.

Bulkhead smiled to Miko knowing how to cheer her up. "Miko check it out new battle scars." Bulkhead boasted as he showed it off to Miko. In response Miko took out her newly returned phone and took a picture of the new scars.

Nearby Nick was seen bringing Shara over to a gurney so she could lay down. "Easy, easy does it, Shara." Nick said as he treated his younger sister like she was made of glass. Shara was currently wearing Nick's jacket to cover her decency as she would no doubt need to go cloths shopping later. But after everything she has been through some major therapy was in order.

Nearby Jack began to approach Arcee. "Arcee hey." Jack called out in greeting as he began to pass by his mother.

"Wait let the adults talk." June said as she put a hand on Jack's shoulder to stop him. In turn June approached the two wheeler as she knew this needed to be said. "Arcee I think I owe you an apology." June said as she approached the Autobot.

"You do?" Arcee asked surprised to hear this.

"I worry especially when I feel I can't control things which with two teenagers now is all the time." June said as she was referring to Nick and Jack. "Jack and I have always been close especially after his dad left and I guess it's just hard to accept that that all that is changing." June said as she was going through the thing every parent went through... letting their kids go. "I mean I knew it would someday but you're not quiet the type of girl I thought Jack would be ditching me for." June said and thus Arcee smiled clearly accepting the apology.

"I think we've all been a little guilty of staying attached to the way things were." Arcee admitted as she accepted her apology.

Meanwhile back with Nick and Shara the two looked to each other as Nick was trying to remind himself that Shara was here she was real and she was ok. Shara on the other hand was close to tears as she couldn't believe she was seeing her brother again. "Nick..." Shara began as her voice cracked.

"Shara..." Nick said as he was overfilled with joy to see at least one family member of his made it out of Radan like he did.

"NICK!" Shara yelled out as she hugged her brother close which got everyone's attention. Ratchet was well on his way in contact Agent Fowler while Shara hugged her brother close after heaven knows how long. Everyone Tekkaman, human, and bot alike saw the scene and could not help but feel happy for Nick to finally be reunited with Shara.

But alas... that happiness would not last as soon something went wrong. "Shara?!" Nick asked in shock as he felt something was very wrong here. From there Shara's arms went limp as she began to fall over causing Nick to act fast and catch her. "Shara!" Nick called out until he saw something he did not want to see seeping out from under his jacket which Shara was using. It was blood Shara's blood was spilling from the same spot that Evil had attacked her. "Shara! Shara!" Nick cried out as he tried to wake her up. Acting fast June ran over to help as she was a nurse after all. Whatever was wrong with Shara was clearly putting the girl in a serious emergency now. Nick had to be pulled away from Shara so June can stabilize her as no doubt everything she endured had finally caught up to Shara.

All in all Nick's fear for Shara had been reignited and now that fearful fire now burns brighter than before.

(Scene Break Decepticon Warship)

Breakdown and Shadowstriker walked up to Megatron and Nightbird in the command deck. Megatron and Nightbird were both not happy with the two Cons returning empty handed. But what was odd was the two vehicons behind Breakdown. "Breakdown Shadowstriker you two dare to return empty handed." Megatron scolded as he glared at the two while Shadowstriker was glaring at something behind Breakdown.

"Not exactly Lord Megatron." Shadowstriker said and thus signaled for Breakdown to do his thing. From there Breakdown turned around to reveal Arachnid magnetized to Breakdowns back causing Nightbird to smile sinisterly.

"Arachnid... it has been some time." Nightbird said as she can finally learn the truth if Arachnid was involved with her assassination attempt.

"Lord Megatron... Commander Nightbird." Arachnid began as she did a small bow to them. "What can I say, it's good to be back." Arachnid said and thus Nightbird smirked a bit.

"Breakdown you and Shadowstriker with me, Soundwave make sure Knockout is prepped for a Cortical Psychic patch." Nightbird said as Megatron knew exactly what Nightbird was gunning for. "Also be sure he's prepped to provide Shadowstriker with some new limbs she has long since been stuck with those paltry replacements and we need her at her best." Nightbird said and thus Arachnid began to grow worried over this information.

"Um excuse me?" Arachnid asked and thus Nightbird glared at Arachnid in the face. "Let's just say... that I have reason to believe you and Starscream made and attempt on my spark... I need to see if I am wrong or not." Nightbird said and thus Arachnid knew with the Psychic Patch she was on a one way ticket to a medical berth at best. But knowing what was to happen Arachnid was not liking her odds. Now with guns on her it was clear that Arachnid had no chances of escape once she was demagnetized.

(TBC)

ESKK: Well here we go another chapter of the docket. I hope you all enjoyed it and will in turn join us for the next chapter. So until we meet again I will ask for review before leaving and as always I will say ja-ne.
