Chapter 37
Coming of the fuzors Part 1
00000000
Vacuo
Somewhere in the baren wasteland that is Vacuo laid two Stasis pods. But because of the crash it was a miracle that they were even working. Parts laid all over the place, while the pods themselves looked like they were being held together by some unseen force.
But whatever the cause they were still working as they were doing everything they could to activate the proto forms inside. But due to their damaged systems a problem appeared in the scanning for their beast modes. A problem neither side have seen before.
But at the Darksyde the pods were close enough for the ship's sensors to scan.
"Two stasis pods down in delta quadrant." Said the computer throughout the base.
Roman was in sickbay along with 28 other White Fang members who were hurt during the quantum surge.
"Why is that system so loud." Groaned Roman as he was trying to sleep as others agreed with him.
But in the back of his mind, he was screaming. The last thing he needed was new variables when he and Adam were going to do their coup when he got better.
Outside the base Megatron and Inferno flew off to the pods location as Adam was left in charge. As the two flew away Megatron couldn't help but wonder where Cinder and her two followers went.
Meanwhile as the two flew off Wazzpinator looked at the sky as he wondered something. Something that could affect the whole war, as he flew back into the ship at full speed.
Standing serval miles away was Dinobot, in beast mode, as he looked at the Darksyde. He was lucky that the Predacons and White Fang hadn't had time to rebuild this defences. That was the whole reason he got as close as he had.
Dinobot had one mission here and he told no one about it. If they knew what he was planning, they would have stopped him, or sent a team with him. No, it was better this way.
But then out of nowhere an auto gun appeared.
"Maximal energy signature detected." Siad the gun's computer as it fired at Dinobot.
Seeing this Dinobot jumped out of the way and took cover behind a large boulder. Dinobot was trying to think of a way out of this when he heard an explosion. Curious he looked out and saw the gun destroyed.
"What are you doing here?" Asked Blackarachnia as she held a smoking gun in her hand.
"I could ask the same of you?" Countered Dinobot as he came out of hiding.
"I came here for some files and such. Now what are you doing here?" Said Blackarachnia as she eyed him. But when he didn't answer she put it together.
"What don't tell me you're after the disks aren't you?" She asked him as his silence said everything for her.
"Come on, I'll help you get in." Said Blackarachnia as this confused Dinobot.
"And how will you do that?" Asked Dinobot only to get a grin in return.
A little bit later Blackarachnia was dragging Dinobot, now in robot mode, behind her as she reached the Darksyde.
"Hold it!" Yelled a White Fang member as he and two others walked towards her with their guns trained on her.
"Blackarachnia?!" Said one Member confused. "Where the hell have you've been?"
"I was a prisoner of the Maximals. I followed Tarantulas to the Axalon, but the damn spider left behind when things got hairy." Answered Blackarachnia as the three bought it.
"Well it's good your back. With Terrorsaur and Scorponok dead, we need more bots." Said the first member.
"They're dead?" Said Blackarachnia surprised as that would explain why they didn't join in the last attack.
"Hey, wait a moment. If you escaped, why's Dinobot here?" Question the last Member as he eyed Dinobot.
"He chased after me. Thought he got the drop on me, but he was exactly where I wanted him." Explained Blackarachnia as the third Member looked at Dinobot.
"I see no wounds on him." Said the Member as he looked at Blackarachnia doubtful.
"Hey man, why would she lie?" Asked the second Member confused.
The three White Fang members then started to argue as Blackarachnia rolled her optics as she slowly and carefully dragged Dinobot inside. Once inside and in a safe place Dinobot got up.
"Told you it would work." Said Blackarachnia as she scanned the halls.
Dinobot didn't say anything as he had his doubts. But he was shocked to learnt he fates to his two old comrades.
"So what now?" Asked Blackarachnia as she had her tasks, that she wanted to deal with.
Wazzpinator then passed them as they heard something about the 'Golden disk'. Hearing that the two followed him as they both realized that the other came for them.
"The disks." Said Wazzpinator as he flew into a room with both disk hovering in a stasis field. Wazzpinator then transformed as he walked over to them. He then touched the field holding them as a blast of energy sent him flying back as he hit something.
Looking up, he wished he didn't. As Dinobot and Blackarachnia were looking down at him.
"Worthless bug." Said Dinobot as he bent over and picked up Wazzpinator.
Wazzpinator pulled out his gun only for Dinobot to use his laser eyes to blast it away.
"What are you doing here?" Asked Blackarachnia confused.
"What spider bot doing with traitor bot?" Asked Wazzpinator confused.
"Answer her." Said Dinobot as he squeezed Wazzpinator's throat.
"Planet changed, but nothing adds up to Earth." Said Wazzpinator as Dinobot huffed.
"I told you this was the wrong world." Said Dinobot as none of them believed him. He then dropped Wazzpinator and waked to the disks.
"Then the first golden disk is worthless here." Said Blackarachnia as she joined him.
"Yes, but if Megatron should somehow get off this world." Said Dinobot as he didn't need to finish.
"What if, it wasn't Megatron?" Asked Wazzpinator as he walked over to them.
"What do you mean?" Asked Dinobot as he knew what Wazzpinator was saying but wanted him closer.
"If we work together and make a ship, we can rule." Said Wazzpinator as Blackarachnia rolled her optics at the idea.
"An excellent idea." Said Dinobot as Blackarachnia looked him like he was crazy. At the same time Dinobot moved closer to Wazzpinator.
"Lizard bot think so." Said Wazzpinator who had a bad feeling as Dinobot was right in front of him.
"You go first." Said Dinobot as he placed a hand on Wazzpinator's shoulder.
The next thing Wazzpinator knew Dinobot threw him at the force field, as Blackarachnia moved out of the way.
When Wazzpinator hit the field the energy from it formed whips that totally encased Wazzpinator. All the while Wazzpinator was spazzing out from all the energy being put into him.
"Whoa!" Said Dinobot as he couldn't look away, while Blackarachnia was glad it wasn't her.
The energy whips then moved Wazzpinator towards a wall as it then opened up. Out of the wall came a circular disk. The disk then activated revealing it was a super powerful magnet as pieces of Wazzpinator flew towards it.
While this was happening Dinobot calmly walked over to the disks and grabbed both of them.
Then the floor beneath the magnet opened up to reveal a crusher. At the same time a claw came down and placed Wazzpinator into it, while the magnet turned off as his pieces of himself fell on top of him.
That was when the crusher, crushed Wazzpinator. It then lifted Wazzpinator, who was in a cube shape, up. The base bounced Wazzpinator up once as he hit the magnet, before swatting him away.
"How does he deal with all that?" Asked Blackarachnia as it baffled her sometimes.
"No idea." Said Dinobot as he wondered the same thing sometimes. But for now it was time to leave.
"Come on." Said Dinobot as he got what they came for.
"You go ahead. I've got some data to collect." Said Blackarachnia as she looked at a computer terminal out of the corner of her optics.
"Very well." Said Dinobot as he left the room.
A few second afterwards Blackarachnia heard the sounds of a fire fight, as she knew Dinobot would keep the White Fang busy. She then walked over to the terminal and activated it.
'Time for those files.' Thought Blackarachnia as she started to work on Megatron's firewalls.
"Oh sure, everyone forgets about Wazzpinator." Groaned Wazzpinator as he was some how able to use an arm to start to pull himself away.
"Wazzpinator will get himself to CR tank." Continued Wazzpinator as he had very important information Blackarachnia. But knowing his luck no one will help him to the tank.

Vale, Patch, Axalon
Ruby sat in Optimus's or rather her office as she was talking with Ozpin and Ironwood about the state of the world. Beside Ruby was Skyshooter and Weiss.
"So how bad is it?" Asked Ruby as she already knew the answer.
"To put it simply bad." Started Ozpin with a defeated look. "I've received reports of at least a dozen confirmed settlements destroyed. And many more unconfirmed."
"Atlas isn't as bad, but the attack has caused much of the land to melt and such." Said Ironwood grimly. "I have teams checking the more important areas first, but it's not looking promising."
Hearing that no one said anything as they knew it could have been way worse. But at the same time it was hard to take in.
"And what of the Stasis pods?" Asked Skyshooter curious.
"So far all together we've found 29, in various states." Answered Ozpin as that was a combined number for both of them.
"I see." Said Skyshooter as so many proto forms were lost.
"But there is some good news." Said Ozpin as a small smile appeared on his face. "Grimm attacks have all but vanished."
"What do you mean?" Asked Weiss confused. Why would Grimm attacks stop especially after all this.
"We don't know the reason, but when the attack happened it caused the Grimm to explode along with the Energon." Said Ironwood as he took over.
Hearing this the two girls and bot shared confused looks.
"Send us all the data you have. Maybe we can figure something out." Said Skyshooter as it may unlock a secret of the Grimm.
"You'll have it within 24 hours. Hopefully you can make some sort of weapon from this." Said Ironwood as both he and Ozpin knew this period of peace won't last long.
"I hope so too." Said Ozpin as this surprised everyone even Ironwood.
"But onto other matters. What have the Predacon's been up too?" Asked Ozpin as he worried about what they'll do now.
"They've been quiet. But Blackarachnia said she needed to get some data and has left for the Darksyde. When she comes back maybe she'll have more info." Answered Ruby as she hoped Blackarachnia will return soon.
"Can we trust her?" Asked Ironwood as Blackarachnia seemed to be the type to look out for herself.
"I believe we can." Said Ruby as she has faith in her. Though not many shared her faith.
"I'm afraid I must cut this short. The council want regular updates on everything and is discussing massive expansion while the Grimm seem gone." Said Ozpin as he got ready to leave.
"I must do the same for the same reasons. But before I go Tigatron and Airazor are leaving on their recon mission soon aren't they?" Asked Ironwood curious.
"Yes, we'll relay everything they share with us." Said Skyshooter as he still couldn't believe Ironwood backed them up when the two told them of their plan.
"I see." Said Ironwood as he then left.
"Before I go, I need to inform you that I'm sending you all back-up." Said Ozpin as this shocked them.
"Really?" Said Weiss as that seemed like an Ironwood move.
"Who are they?" Asked Ruby curious and Ozpin answer surprised them.
Meanwhile outside with the others, everyone was gathered around a stasis pod that Rhinox and Bladegator put down.
"At least this own fell where we could see it." Said Rattrap as he looked over his shoulder to the Axalon.
"Yeah, but two more dropped in Pred territory." Said Cheetor grimly as that was bad news for them.
"And that not counting the rest." Said Speedclaw nervously.
No one said anything as the alien attack did a real number on the world. And there was no telling where the pods landed or what shape they were in.
"Hopefully, the headmasters will have something." Said Fox as he was more worried about the results.
"If not me and Airazor will hopefully find them." Said Tigatron as some of them weren't sure about the long scouting mission of theirs.
"Tigatron are you sure about this?" Asked Velvet nervously.
"Yes Velvet. We helped do this to your world. And as such it's our job to try to fix the damage the best we can." Answered Tigatron as Velvet knew there was no talking him out of this.
"Keep him safe." Said Velvet as she looked at Airazor.
"I'll do my best." Said Airazor as both of them knew that was best answer.
"Good luck." Said Bladegator as they were undergoing a dangerous mission right now.
"Stay safe mates." Added Boomer.
"Don't forget to call." Said Yang.
Seeing this both bots nodded to their friends as they knew it was time to go.
"After you, my lady." Said Tigatron as Airazor transformed.
"Keep the fuel rods warm. We'll stay in contact." Airazor told them as Tigatron transformed.
The shared a look with their friends as the they ran off. According to their plans, they were going to search all of Patch first them Vale, then Mistral.
"Journey well friends. You are part of this planet. Let it's heart guide your own." Said Rhinox as Bladegator agreed with him.
"Be careful big cat." Said Cheetor as he radioed Tigatron.
"Always, little cat." Replied Tigatron with a chuckle.
"Ah you both going soft in the circuits or what?" Asked Rattrap as he ruined the mood.
"Way to read the atmosphere Rattrap." Said Yang with a frown as Rattrap gave her an unamused look.
"Who cares, we got a new ally here waiting to be woken up." Said Rattrap as he gestured to the pod before them.
"He has a point." Admitted Fox as they could use a new member, with Tigatron and Airazor leaving.
"Not this one." Said Rhinox confusing everyone.
"Why not. The pod looks fine." Said Blake as she's seen a pod in bad shape before.
"It's blank. A proto form without a spark." Answered Rhinox.
"Does that mean…" Trailed off Velvet as Rhinox understood where she was going.
"No, it never had a spark to begin with." Said Rhinox as this further confused them.
"Why even have this then?" Asked Coco as it was a waste of space in her eyes.
"Actually, it could be useful." Said Rhinox as this confused them further.
But wherever their conversation was going was cut short when a ship appeared overhead. Seeing this caused a little panic amongst them as they weren't prepared for this.
"Everyone calm down." Said Ruby as she, Wiess, and Skyshooter joined them.
"Sis who's this?" Asked Yang worried.
"Ozpin is sending us some reinforcements." Answered Ruby as this surprised everyone.
"So we have professional huntsman joining us." Said Fox as this would be interesting.
"Oh joy just what we need." Said Rattrap as he was still sour about the stunt Ironwood and his 'Ace' ops did.
Ruby and Weiss shared a look as they weren't sure how to break the news to everyone. That was when the ship landed near them, and the door opened.
"Oh my Oum Ren they are robots!" Screamed Nora as she rushed out of the ship and towards Boomer.
"Crickey mates." Said Boomer as she was circling him and asking all sorts of questions.
"Nora calm down." Said Ren as he and the rest of his team exited the ship.
"Wow." Was all Jaune could say as he looked at the Maximals as Pyrrha felt the same.
"Team JNPR?" Said Coco confused as they were the second to last people she expected. The first being team CRDL.
"That's not all." Said Ruby as all the Beacon students gasped when Professor Port and DR Oobleck walked out as well.
"Amazing life from another world, right before us Peter." Said Dr Oobleck as he walked over to Speedclaw and Cheetor.
"Tell me everything about your world please." Said Dr Oobleck as the two shared a look as this was not what they were expecting.
"Clam down Bartholomew, we'll have plenty of time to swap stories." Said Professor Port as she stroked his mustache.
"Ruby." Said Blake as her tone said everything.
"It was Ozpin's idea." Said Glynda as she left the ship.
"His idea is to send us more kids?" Said Rattrap confused. While teams RWBY and CFVY gave him a look.
"I understand Rattrap." Said Glynda as she felt similar about this. "But after what happened with the Ace ops, Ozpin felt that a younger more open-minded team would do better."
"I can see the logic in that." Admitted Skyshooter.
"And our teachers?" Asked Velvet confused.
"For experience." Answered Glynda as she had such mixed feelings about all this.
Ruby sighed as she wished Ozpin talked to them about this more. But maybe this is what they needed.
"What done is done. For know let's get everyone up to speed." Said Ruby as they had a lot to tell their new allies.
"Ruby, why are you acting like their leader?" Asked Jaune confused.
"That's because she is." Answered Rhinox as the others agreed with him surprising the new people.
"Did not see that coming." Said Nora as she looked at Ren who agreed.
"Bladegator help me with the pod." Said Rhinox as everyone started to make their way to the Axalon as Velvet noticed something.
"Where's Yatsuhashi?" She asked as he was nowhere to be seen.

Vacuo
Back with the broken stasis pods, the pods were doing everything they could to save the proto forms inside. But with the damage systems something neither side has seen or heard of happened, as the pods started to open.
From one pod came out scorpion legs, while from the other a large wing stretched out. From the first pod someone quickly rushed out. Then from the safety of a tree a scorpion head popped out. The head was mostly gold in color with the forehead being a light green. Finally the new bot had red eyes as it used them to glare around.
"Well looky what we got here." Said the new bot with a southern accent as he looked at the other bot who got out of his pod.
"Who are you? For that matter who am I?" Asked the second bot as he looked at his webbed/ talon like feet.
"Well I don't know pal, but I'll tell you one thing I do know. And that is I beat I can trash your tail!" Said the first bot.
"What?" Said the second bot confused.
"You heard me! Come one fuzz and feathers! You and me, we're going to tangle, right here, right now!" Said the first bot as he swung his tail at the second bot.
But as he did so he revealed that instead of a scorpion's tail he had a snake head there instead. He then lunged at the second bot revealing that he had the body of a wolf with wings of an eagle on his back with bright green eyes.
The scorpion bot then lunged at the wolf bot as the scorpion bot wrapped his legs around the wolf bot. And the momentum from the scorpion bot's jump the two collided against a pod. The wolf bot then used a free leg to swat the scorpion bot away.
Getting some breathing room the wolf bot got up as he was ready for whatever the scorpion bot may try next. He even unfolded his wings and growled at the scorpion bot as a form of intimidation. But all that did was tell the scorpion bot he was ready for more.
The scorpion bot clipped his claws as his snake head would hiss at the wolf bot. At the same time the wolf bot growled and swiped his claws at scorpion bot.
But then something exploded near them, making both stop as they looked at what just happened. Then more explosions happened near them.
That was when Inferno flew down at them. All the while firing at them.
"For the royalty!" Declared Inferno as he continued his assault.
Then one shot landed near the new bots as both went flying through the air. Luckly for both of them they landed on the ground safely.
"What in tarnation? Another one who thinks he tougher than me." Asked the scorpion bot as he wondered who this was and how he could kick his butt.
"We've done nothing to him. Surely there's been a misunderstanding." Said the Wolf bot as he was trying to figure this out peacefully.
"Yeah, old blender butt there, misunderstands my need to kick his kiester!" Said the scorpion bot as Inferno landed near them.
That was when the scorpion bot jumped out at Inferno. The scorpion used both his claws on Inferno's arms, while his snake tail was biting him. And all this did was cause Inferno to laugh at him.
"Fool! Pain is my friend." Said Inferno as he grabbed the scorpion bot's tail. "Allow me to introduce you, to it!"
Inferno then started to slam the scorpion bot to the ground as he never let go to the snake tail. The wolf bot saw this and knew he had to step in.
"Now that's just dirty fighting." Said the Wolf bot as he leaped into action.
"Hey you! You had your fun, now leave him alone!" Said the Wolf bot as he glided over. At the same time Inferno had his foot down on the scorpion as he pulled on his tail.
"Oh look a hero." Mocked Inferno as he let go of the scorpion bot's tail and held his hands together.
"My favorite." Continued Inferno as he then brought out his gun and shot at the wolf bot.
All the while Megatron watch from nearby. When he first saw the two new transformers, he was shocked to see them mix matched like that. That was why he sent Inferno in first to see what they would do. And from what he saw their data tracks had to be damaged.
"Ah me. Such entertainment. Yeess." Said Megatron as he did enjoy a one side beat down.
"But I suppose while they are distracted, I should attend to business." Megatron said to himself.
"Computer. Access the new transformers activation commands. Quickly while their security circuits are still offline." Ordered Megatron as he didn't know how much time he had.
"Accessing." Said Megatron's computer.
Back with the fight the wolf bot had Inferno's left arm in his mouth, while the scorpion bot was on his back. But Inferno wasn't in pain or anything, he was more annoyed than anything else. As he easily pushed off the wolf bot. And then reached behind him and tossed the scorpion bot away as well.
"Insolent fools! Burn in the fires of Inferno!" Declared Inferno as he brough out his gun again and was ready to use his flamethrower on them.
But then out of nowhere Megatron swatted him away with his tail.
"Goodbye bad cop. Hello good cop. Yess" Said Megatron quietly to himself as he cleared his throat.
"I am Megatron!" Declared Megatron as he looked at the two bots before him as they got up.
"A simple misunderstanding. I do apologise." Said Megatron as he knew the two would buy his act.
"I knew it." Said the wolf bot, as he was glad he was right.
"What!? You trust this tin horned toad?" Asked the scorpion confused.
"Why should he not? We are all Predacons. If your data tracks have not been damaged in the crash, you would know this yourselves." Explained Megatron as most of what he said was true.
"You blow a pretty tune, stranger. But it's still hot air to me. Lessen you can back your claim." Said the scorpion bot as he didn't trust Megatron.
"But of course, may good um…" Started Megatron as he didn't know their names.
"Call me Quickstrike." Said the newly named Quickstrike while his snake tail lunged forward, as he added. "And good got nothing to do with it."
"I think my name is Silverbolt. Yes! Pure, strong, and fast." Said Sliverbolt as he felt pride in his name.
Megatron liked Quickstrike's name, but when Silverbolt said his. Well, Megatron zoned out for a bit.
"Um, Eh." Said Megatron as he came back to it. "Yes, excellent. I any case Quickstrike and um, Silverbolt. My proof is a simple one. Just speak aloud the Predacon activation code. Terrorize!"
Megatron then transformed before them surprising the new bots.
"There, you see." Said Megatron.
"Hold on. You mean all I got to do is say, Quickstrike Terrorize!" Said Quickstrike as he transformed surprising himself and Silverbolt.
Quickstrike body flipped forwards. Now his scorpion claws were his feet. His scorpion head was his rear with his underbelly now his front. His left hand was his scorpion legs in a claw like fashion, while on his right arm he had his snake head for a hand. His head was mostly light blue but had a gold top. His eyes were still red, and he had what looked like a filter for a mouth.
"What in tarnation!?" Said Quickstrike in shock and awe as he checked himself out.
"And there you have it. New form, new weapons, new opportunity." Said Megatron as he wondered what weapons Quickstrike had, with no real hands.
"Silverbolt." Started Silverbolt as he didn't want to say his next word. "Terrorize."
Silverbolt then flipped forwards as his front legs became his feet. Meanwhile his back legs folded up half way as normal silver hands appeared. His chest had two grey blocks on either side as a silver inside with a gold upside down triangle on top of it. Below that was a stomach piece was had a red circle on it with what looked like teeth surrounding it. And attached to it was a drape with three triangles pointing down. On his head his mouth and nose were white and looked a little canine like. The rest of his head was grey with yellow eyes. And it looked like he wore a black mask over his eyes. Finally on his back was his wings.
"Hum, it's not a word I like the taste of." Said Silverbolt as something in his spark was telling him this was wrong.
"Can't argue with the results though." Said Quickstrike with a chuckle. He then aimed his snake head at Inferno who was getting up.
Quickstrike then fired a green beam at him as Inferno cried out in pain, as green energies covered his body. Quickstrike laughed at this as did Megatron as he walked between his new men. All the while Silverbolt did not feel right about any of this.
"Excellent! Yeess. Welcome my new Predacons." Said Megatron as he placed a hand on both of their shoulders and brought them in closer.
Quickstrike and Silverbolt shared as confused look at this, as neither really liked it.
"Now let me tell you everything you need to know about this world." Said Megatron suddenly as both new bots were listening.

Vale, Patch, Axalon
While Megatron was telling his new men about Remnant, Ruby was just finishing telling her new allies about the beast wars.
"Ok." Started Jaune as everyone was getting a tour of the Axalon.
"The Maximals and Predacons are aliens from a planet called Cybertron. The Maximals chased the Predacons here after they stole an artifact from the Maximals. They started this 'beast war' and each side has gained allies from here. Is that about right?"
"You forgot about them being responsible for the 'the reckoning'." Said Nora as she gave the bots a glare.
"Pretty much. But what happened with the aliens was not something anyone planned for." Answered Ruby as she still hadn't told anyone the whole story. Not that she had a chance to.
But before anyone could say anything Speedclaw came rushing towards them.
"Ruby, we have something going on." Said Speedclaw confusing everyone.
"What do you mean?" Asked Ruby as she didn't need this.
"It's better if you see it yourself." Answered Speedclaw as he rushed off. Knowing she better follow Ruby took off. Seeing this the others also followed her, mostly due to not knowing where to go.
When Ruby reached the command room, she saw Rhinox laying down on the command table with some sort of device above him. Ruby had no idea what it was other then it would cover all of Rhinox's upper body. Beside it was two control sticks.
"What is this?" Asked Ruby confused.
"Thank Primus you're here Ruby. Talk some sense into Rhinox will yah." Said Rattrap as Ruby was even more confused.
"Rhinox?" Asked Ruby confused.
"I don't have enough time to explain." Said Rhinox as he was getting systems ready.
"Then simplify it." Ordered Ruby.
"When the alien device exploded it created a window into trans-wrap space, that won't last long." Said Rhinox as that didn't explain anything.
"And that's important why?" Asked Yang confused.
"If I'm right I can bring Optimus back." Said Rhinox as no one said anything as that was shocking.
"You can't." Said Ren as everyone looked at him. "The dead stay dead, no matter how much you wish otherwise."
"Ren." Said Nora soberly as her tone shocked everyone who knew her.
"I think I can, but I need to hurry." Said Rhinox as he was wasting time.
Ruby was about to tell him no, but she then felt something in the Matrix. Ruby paused as she made her decision.
"You have two hours Rhinox. After that come back." Said Ruby shocking everyone.
"For booting up cold, have you lost it?" Questioned Rattrap as he gave her the 'are you crazy' look.
"Maybe." Admitted Ruby as she added. "But if there's a chance, we should take it."
Hearing that Rattrap sighed in defeat.
"It's like she Optimus 2.0." Rattrap muttered to himself.
"No, I'm a Prime." Said Ruby confusing Jaune.
"Huh, what's a Prime?" He asked her.
"I'll explain later." Said Ruby.
That was when they heard a hissing noise as the weird device lowered itself on Rhinox and activated.
"Ruby are you sure that was a good idea?" Asked Yang unsure.
"Yang's right, both Dinobot and Yatsuhashi are MIA, Tigatron and Airazor have left for their scouting mission, we have no idea if Blackarachnia is coming back, and we have six rookies." Said Weiss as their situation wasn't good.
"She's right, we might as well open the front door and let Megatron in." Said Rattrap with a frown.
"I know, but something tells me that letting Rhinox go it the right call." Said Ruby as that's what her gut told her.
"As for our missing swordmen." Said Ruby as he looked at their cat allies. "Blake, Cheetor go see if you can find them from the sky."
"Wait you mean fly?" Asked Cheetor excited.
"No she means take a submarine! Of course, she means fly." Said Rattrap annoyed.
"Cheetor, how is your flying?" Blake asked him as she was unsure.
"Don't worry, Skyshooter and Airazor have been giving me lessons." Reassured Cheetor as the two headed out.
"What about us?" Asked Speedclaw curious.
"For now we continue to bring our new allies up to speed, and we make sure everything on the Axalon is working." Said Ruby as she walked off.
"Ruby." Said Weiss as she followed her. "You're expecting a fight aren't you."
"I am. The question is when?" Said Ruby worried.
Outside the Axalon Cheetor was in beast mode as he was running with Blake on his back.
"Hold on." Said Cheetor as he activated his jets and took off.
"You ok?" Asked Cheetor as they as they leveled off.
"Yeah." Said Blake as her legs were wrapped around Cheetor's front legs.
Meanwhile on another part of Patch Dinobot walked up a set of stairs to an empty flat area. Ruby told him about this training grounds and how not many use it, due to its location. But Dinobot came here regularly due to that to train his swordsmanship skills.
But right now he had a larger problem.
Dinobot held both golden disks in his hands, though his optics were on the original disk.
"So much power, in something so small. But even with it's immense power it can only be used once, and only at a certain time." Dinobot said to himself out loud.
"But this world is not Earth, so this disk is worthless here. But should we leave this world, all this can happen again on the right world." Continued Dinobot as he started to walk about, failing to see someone coming.
"I should destroy this disk, ensuring that my fate is my own. But that is a coward's way out." Dinobot told himself.
"I don't think it is." Said a voice startling Dinobot as his eyes turned green as he turned, and he saw Yatsuhashi there.
"Yatsuhashi what are you doing here?" Asked Dinobot as he knew he heard everything.
"Looking for you." Answered Yatsuhashi as he looked at the disks.
"I see you stole the disks. General Ironwood will be furious." Said Yatsuhashi as Dinobot smiled as he would enjoy seeing that.
"You think destroying the disk isn't a coward's way out?" Asked Dinobot curious to Yatsuhashi's answer.
"No." Said Yatsuhashi with a shake of his head. "For it's not a coward's way to make your own path. It's the coward's way if you follow what the disk says."
Dinobot thought about Yatsuhashi's words as he looked at the disk.
"And you would do this in my place?" Asked Dinobot as he looked Yatsuhashi dead in the eyes.
"I hope I would." Answered Yatsuhashi as both knew that neither knew how'd they'd react.
"Then what should I do?" Asked Dinobot honestly.
Yatsuhashi stood there as he thought about what to do.
"Give the golden disk to Ruby, maybe she can translate or decode it. Then she can confirm if this is the right world and such. As for the alien one, give it to Rhinox. I fear the aliens may be back." Yatsuhashi told Dinobot who thought it over.
"You may be right." Said Dinobot, but parts of him still had doubt.
"Then let's hope I am." Said Yatsuhashi as the two headed back to the Axalon.

Vacuo, Megatron's location
"I can't believe it." Said Silverbolt in shock and disgust.
How could one species treat another so bad. And he was thinking about Humans and Faunus. When Megatron told them about the Maximals and Predacons something in Silverbolt said he wasn't hearing the whole story.
But with the Faunus how could one species be held in such hatred over something so trivial. It made his circuits frizzle with anger.
"That makes two of us." Said Quickstrike in agreement, but for different reasons.
Quickstrike completely agreed with the White Fang's policy if might makes right and can't wait to meet them.
That was when they heard Inferno groaning as he came back online. As his optics opened, he saw Silverbolt there holding a hand out to him. He also saw Megatron there, so he realized this new bot was apart of their colony now. And as such took the hand being offered to him.
"Yeess, excellent. Teamwork and cooperation. Those are the Predacon watch words." Praised Megatron as Inferno got to his feet.
"How bout backstabbing and treachery?" Asked Quickstrike curious.
"Oh we can be flexible." Answered Megatron as those were some of his favorite words.
"But our main focus must always be the Maximals and their allies." Stated Megatron firmly.
That was when Megatron saw something in the sky. Zooming in he saw it was Cheetor and Blake.
"Quickstrike, Silverbolt, Inferno enemy flier at 12 o clock." Said Megatron as he charged up his tail cannon.
At the same time with Cheetor and Blake they had no luck with finding their missing allies.
"Cheetor, we're getting close to Predacon territory." Warned Blake.
"I know, but if I know Dinobot then this is the most likely area he would be in." Replied Cheetor as he had a point.
That was when something exploded near them.
"Blake?!" Screamed Cheetor as he still felt her on him.
"I'm good." Said Blake as she then hugged Cheetor's neck for more support.
"Then let's go!" Said Cheetor as he turned around. Something Megatron saw.
"Silverbolt! Pursue and destroy!" Ordered Megatron.
"Why? They are not attacking?" Asked Silverbolt confused.
A question Megatron did not like as he activated his shoulder cannons and shot Silverbolt. Quickstrike was surprised by this, but at the same time smiled at it while laughing. While Inferno was indifferent.
"Never question my orders! Now go!" Ordered Megatron as his cannon's were still smoking.
Silverbolt said nothing as he got up and transformed. But inside he was really starting to question the Predacons as he took off.
"Inferno! You bring Quickstrike and follow me. Megatron flight mode." Said Megatron as he transformed and then took off following Silverbolt.
Inferno and Quickstrike shared as look as they thought how to make it work. As Quickstrike then climbed onto Inferno's back, while avoiding his flight system. Inferno then took off while Quickstrike gave a 'yeehaw!'.
"Cheetor don't look back." Warned Blake as she looked back.
Hearing this Cheetor did look back and wished he didn't.
"Oh man, we're leading a pred parade." Said Cheetor worried.
"We need to lose them." Said Blake as she brought out Gambol Shroud in gun mode and fired at Sliverbolt. But due to never firing a gun in the position she was in a lot of the shots missed.
"I know that." Said Cheetor as he then saw something.
"Hang on tightly." Warned Cheetor as he flew downwards.
"Ah!" Cried out Blake as Cheetor flew into a canyon with serval rock pillars in it.
"Cheetor!" Screamed Blake as Cheetor ignored her as he flew around the pillars, as he knew one mistake would cost them.
But Silverbolt was right on their tail and was gaining a little bit. Silverbolt then transformed as he locked onto Cheetor with his weapon system, which happened to be his wings. He the fired as two feather like missiles shot out, but at the last second Cheetor moved out of the way. The missiles then hit a pillar. Silverbolt was too close to the explosion as he got caught up in it and flew right into the pillar.
"Did we lose him?" Asked Cheetor as he kept his eyes forward.
"Yes." Said Blake as she held on for dear life. After they landed, she was never doing this again.
Hearing that Cheetor laughed. "Nothing like cat speed and cornering ability." He boasted.
That was when they heard something plowing through the stone pillars. Looking back Blake saw Megatron just headbutting his way towards them.
"Cheetor, we need backup." Said Blake worried.
"And some distance." Agreed Cheetor as he put his jets to the max.

Vale, Patch, Axalon
At the Axalon Rattrap, Boomer, and Yang were in the command room as they looked at Rhinox.
"He'll be fine mate." Said Boomer as he saw the worried look on Rattrap's face.
"He'd better be, or I'll bring him back, just to kill him." Said Rattrap as they knew he didn't mean it.
"This is Cheetor! Code one emergency!" Said Cheetor over the radio.
Hearing this Yang rushed over.
"What going on Cheetor? Is Blake ok?" Asked Yang worried.
"She's fine for now. We ran into a pred nest in delta quadrant. There's two new bots with Megatron himself. They're on our tail!" Said Cheetor as they could hear the fear in his voice.
"Hang on, we're on our way." Said Yang as she turned on the ships intercom system.
"Ruby get to the command area now!" Said Yang as a few seconds later Ruby showed up in a flurry of rose pedals.
"What's wrong?" Asked Ruby as she had a good guess, as Yang explained the situation.
Ruby said nothing as she turned on the intercom herself.
"Everyone to the command area now." Ordered Ruby as she looked Rattrap.
Rattrap then went to a console and got to work.
"Sentinel auto guns online! Stand ready for full alert!" Instructed Rattrap as he got everything online and ready.
"Miss Rose what's going on?" Asked Glynda as everyone appeared.
"Cheetor and Blake are in trouble. And we're going to help them." Said Ruby as this surprised everyone.
"You mean all of us?" Asked Jaune as he wondered how big of a party was chasing them.
"Yes. I feel this will be Megatron's big push." Said Ruby as those who knew Megatron agreed with her.
It was then the lift came up and Dinobot and Yatsuhashi came in.
"What is happening? Sentinel is on alert?" Asked Dinobot as he then saw the new recruits.
"And who are they?" Asked Dinobot as he eyed them, making Jaune nervous.
"Dinobot, Yatsuhashi where have you two been?" Asked Coco as she looked at her teammate making him nervous.
"We will explain later, but for what is happening." Said Dinobot as Yatsuhashi agreed with him.
But Dinobot could tell something was wrong, so he pressed a spot on his chest as a shelve full of weapons dropped down before him. This made some of the older Maximals wonder when that was put in.
"Oh, well nothing much. Let's see Rhinox is defying the laws of life and death and is trying to bring back Optimus. And Cheetor and Blake are bringing a squad of Pred's home to play. And if they hit this place Rhinox goes off line permanently. So Ruby is saying we should go take care of the cat's problem." Explained Rattrap.
"Is he always like that?" Asked Ren to Velvet curious.
"You caught him on a good day." Answered Velvet making JNPR wondering how was on a bad day.
"Then Ruby is right, we must take the fight to the enemy." Said Dinobot as the shelve went up.
Everyone then saw Dinobot was ready for battle as he had two small guns on his hips, one large gun in one hand and another small gun in the other. And around his chest were two bands of bullets.
Even Yatsuhashi grabbed some weapons as a small gun was on his hip and a medium sized gun was in his hands.
"Yatsuhashi you're using a gun?" Asked Velvet in shock as was her team.
"I don't think close range will happen this time." Admitted Yatsuhashi as he saw Jaune looking at his weapon.
"Here." Said Yatsuhashi as he tossed Jaune his smaller gun.
Jaune barely caught it as he was nervous. He'd never really practiced with a firearm before, other once or twice with his teammate's weapons.
"Ok everyone lock and load. Get what ammo and weapons you need now, cause I doubt we're going to get a chance to restock later." Said Ruby as Dinobot tossed Rattrap the small gun in his hand.
As everyone rushed to get ready Ruby stopped Velvet.
"Velvet, I want you to stay here and guard the base." Said Ruby shocking her.
"But why?" Asked Velvet in shock.
"If I'm wrong, I want someone here just in case. And who better then the rabbit of doom." Said Ruby with a slight chuckle.
Velvet thought about it and knew Ruby was right, but she wished she was going with them.
"We'll be fine." Said Fox as he gave her a pat on the shoulder.
"Also what's the rabbit of doom?" Asked Nora as she rushed over.
"We'll tell you later." Said Fox as he dragged her away.
Soon everyone was heading to the ground bridge, which was already active.
"Rattrap, Speedclaw, Skyshooter go ahead and support Cheetor and Blake." Ordered Ruby.
The three nodded as the transformed. Speedclaw and Skyshooter rushed off as Rattrap had one thing to do first.
"Knievel mode! Maximum scorch!" Said Rattrap as he entered his vehicle mode and shot off leaving a huge dust cloud making everyone cough.
"That was quite rude." Said Port as he waved some of the dust away from his face.
Soon the three were through the bridge as they saw Cheetor flew by with Megatron hot on his tail. Rattrap then increased his speed as he closed the gap. He then transformed as he fired at Megatron hoping a shot would hit him. And luckily for him one shot hit Megatron's engine causing Megatron to lose control.
"Nnnooo!" Yelled Megatron as he then transformed and landed on the ground near some rocks.
Megatron then saw Cheetor land nearby a large rock formation, as Rattrap and his team joined them.
"Predacons, regroup around my position." Ordered Megatron into his comm unit.
"Adam bring every available White Fang member here, while leaving s skeleton crew to guard the base." Added Megatron.
"Why?" Asked Adam as it was a gamble.
"It's time to end the beast wars." Said Megatron as he knew it was time.
"We'll be there." Said Adam as he agreed with Megatron.
That was when both side started to gather their forces.
Megatron leaned against a rock as he brought out a timer of some sort as three small holographic planets hovered around a sun.
Rattrap watched as the closest pred landed near Megatron as he felt a sense of dread wash over him.
That was when the rest of the Maximals arrived as they all got their gear ready. They all felt good about their numbers at least until the White Fang showed up. With their numbers the Maximals were outgunned 3 to 1.
That was when Megatron's time piece stopped as the planets went back inside. Megatron simply nodded to his men as they knew it was time.
Both side came out of their cover as they all aimed their weapons at each other. And all of them knew it was time to fight as they all pulled their triggers.
And team JNPR has now joined the beast wars and so have the fuzors. I did think about having Tigatron and Airazor stay, but then some things in the future wouldn't happen the same way.
And I'm looking forward to the next chapter. So please bear with me until then.
