Chapter 45: Prime:
Jack's POV:
We were on our way to the Autobots' old base to meet with Agent Fowler. He was standing next to two construction vehicles.
"Hey Kids," says Agent Fowler.
"S'up Agent Fowler," says Miko.
"Do you have the Shard," asks Raf.
"It's in this jar."
The construction vehicles then left, but I don't think I saw drivers.
Scrapper's POV:
My name is Scrapper. I am the Foreman of the Constructicons. We are a group of transformers that build things. We used to build all kinds of things for Megatron. Fortresses, bridges, you name it. But now that the war is over, we're just trying to figure out what to do now.
"Hey Boss," says Bonecrusher.
"Huh?"
"We saw these four humans," says Bonecrusher.
"And one of them is handing the other three a piece of the Infinity Sword," says Scavenger.
"The Infinity Sword? I hear it can make you more powerful than Unicron. Boys, we gotta get that piece!" Now I know what we can do, take over the Universe.
Jack's POV:
Miko, Raf, and I were heading back to the jet, but then we realized six construction vehicles were following us. We tried to run faster, but the construction vehicles blocked us and then transformed.
"The name's Scrapper," one of them said, "this is Bonecrusher, Scavenger, Mixmaster, Hook, and Long Haul."
"You're... Cybertronian," I said.
"Yep. We're the Cronstructicons." I think Smokescreen mentioned them. "We want that piece of the Infinity Sword you kids got."
"You know about the Infinity Sword," asks Raf.
"Of course, we do."
These guys have Decepticon symbols, so we can't let them have the shard.
"So... what would you do with the shard," asks Miko.
"We... were building a museum and it was gonna be the first exhibit."
"Well, I think it will be safer with us."
"Give me the shard or I'll..."
Bonecrusher nearly crushes them.
"Bonecrusher! You could've crushed the shard," says Scrapper.
"Sorry Boss."
"Later Scrappy," says Miko as we were heading to the jet. Mixmaster then fired some kind of acid on the jet.
"Oops, my bad." Mixmaster then laughs.
"Now, I'm gonna..." Raf then activated his Maximal powers and blasted Scrapper. "He's technorganic!"
Fowler comes in his car. "Get in, kids!"
We get in the car and drive off with him.
"AFTER THEM!"
The Constructicons then gave chase, but Fowler presses a button and a ground bridge activated. We went through.
. . .
We were in The Autobot Base.
"What was that," asks Miko.
"I had a control for The Ground Bridge installed in my car," says Agent Fowler.
"Raf, can you look up anything about the Constructicons on the computer," I asked.
"I'm on it. Apparently, they're builders. They've built alot on Cybertron. There's a team of Constructions that work for the Autobots. They're called 'The Build Team'."
"A pretty obvious name," says Miko, "but then again, so is 'Constructicon'."
"Scrapper's team, they're like the Wrecking Crew of Cybertron, without the God like powers."
"They'll get those God-like powers if they get this shard," I said.
"Then we gotta keep them out," says Agent Fowler.
"I don't suppose chaining ourselves would help," says Miko.
Scrapper's POV:
"They were meeting here," I said, "so... this mountain. What if they're in here?"
"Seems like a longshot, Boss," says Hook.
"Well, it's what we got. We gotta get that... what did they call it? A shard? With it, we can rebuild the Universe in our image. Remember how the Decepticons kept disrespecting us? Well, no more. It's time we become The Foremen of the Universe! Now, help me break into the mountain."
Jack's POV:
"So, what are you doing now," asks Miko.
"I'm trying to call Cybertron," says Raf, "we may need some Autobot help."
We then heard something trying to break in.
"They found us," I said.
Everything kept shaking.
Scrapper's POV:
"Keep ramming them, Bonecrusher," I said.
"I'm doing my best," says Bonecrusher.
Jack's POV:
Raf continues to try to contact Cybertron, but I'm hoping any bot could get here in time.
Scrapper's POV:
Bonecrusher continues to ram through the wall. Then a space bridge opens, and a lady bot comes out.
"Name's Arcee. Now, I got word that you guys are causing trouble."
"Woah Baby, check her out," says Hook.
"Hey, I've been bad, come and teach me a lesson," says Mixmaster.
"Check out those wheels," says Bonecrusher.
"Now that's what I call a bot," says Scavenger.
"Hey, show me your circuits," says Long Haul.
Jack's POV:
Raf did it and Arcee came, and we saw the Constructicons act like idiots when seeing her.
"They're construction workers alright," says Miko.
"Just what we need," says Agent Fowler, "stereotypes."
Scrapper's POV:
This bot's a real dame and all, but we still gotta get that shard.
"Look, if you creeps don't stop saying things like that, I'm gonna..."
"Whatever it is," says Bonecrusher, "I say do it."
"Wish granted."
The bot then beats Bonecrusher down.
"Get her," I said.
"Uh... Boss," says Mixmaster, "you know how I feel about fighting lady bots...
"Fight her or I'll TEAR OUT YOUR SPARK!"
"The Boss makes a very convincing argument."
My boys then took her on. We had her surrounded and started to win. What'cha expect? We outnumber her and we're strong. Anyway, just as we were about to take her apart, a bridge opened in front of her.
"Back to business."
Jack's POV:
"It's good to see you again, Arcee," I said, "but did you bring any back up?"
"No, Raf left out the part that there's six of them," Arcee says.
"My bad," says Raf.
"Arcee, do you know what this is?" I showed her the shard.
"Is that a piece of the Infinity Sword?"
"Are we the last to know about it," asks Miko.
"The Infinity Sword is older than time itself," says Arcee, "whoever holds it..."
"Can rewrite the Universe," I said, "we know. A team of villains is after it."
"Cobra Commander, Stretch Monster, and the Choten," says Miko, "a friend of ours nicknames them 'The Society of Ultimate Villainy'."
"And now so are those Constructicons," says Agent Fowler.
"What are they doing now," asks Arcee.
We take a look on the screen and see them heading for some nearby cars, with people in them.
"They're attacking civilians," I said.
"If you guys can hear me," says Scrapper, "bring me the shard of these humans pay the ultimate price!"
. . .
We bridged over there to stop the Constructicons. Raf used his Maximal powers, Arcee fought Scrapper, and the rest of us used NERF blasters.
"Honey, do you really thing you're a match for me," asks Scrapper.
"Don't call me Honey!"
When Bonecrusher slams his fists on the ground, the shard fell out of Miko's pocket.
"Miko," I said, "you brought the shard out with you?"
"Hey, we could've used it against these clowns."
"Come to Scrapper." But then the shard started glowing and it zaps the Constructicons. they started to change and came together.
"Woah," says Miko.
"They've combined," says Raf.
"Combiners," says Arcee, "I've heard of them, and the shard turned them into one."
"This is devastating," says Agent Fowler.
"Devastating... I am... Devastator!"
"We should run," says Miko.
We did just that. Devastator chases after us. We tried to get back to the base, but Devastator wouldn't let us.
"Now I am the most powerful Decepticon on this planet! All will bow before Devastator!"
"How do you beat a Frankencon," asks Miko.
"With just one autobot and four humans," says Arcee, "I don't know."
Just as Devastator was about to attack, a familiar looking car rams us. It then gets to the ground. "Get in," it says.
"I know that voice," says Agent Fowler, "and there is no way..."
"We have no other choice," I said, "come on."
We drove in the car and Arcee followed.
. . .
We were back in the base. The car was in fact, Knock Out.
"If you want the shard," says Miko.
"What shard," asks Knock Out, "I just came because I thought Arcee could use some help."
"He's... kind of on our side now," says Arcee.
"This guy," asks Agent Fowler, "you'd trust one of Megatron's main guys?"
"I've changed. I now try to follow Optimus' way of things. Turns out I like being a good bot. It makes me feel... good."
"You also helped Starscream and Soundwave hold us hostage," says Miko, "in fact, I was your hostage."
"Look, I know I'm not the best bot, but I am here to help. I know Scrapper. Never liked him. We've been rivals for a long time."
"We still need a way to defeat Devastator," says Arcee.
"I'm calling for more backup," says Raf.
Then the base started shaking.
"You don't think..." Agent Fowler started.
"Funny thing about Constructicons," says Knock Out, "when they start a job, they always finish it. And you guys are the job!"
. . .
Devastator keeps pounding on the mountain.
"I will crush you all!"
"We have to stop him," says Arcee.
"A bridge is opening," says Raf.
The bridge opens and Ultra Magnus, Smokescreen, and Wheeljack show up.
"Mind if we cut in," asks Wheeljack.
"More Autobots," says Devastator.
Arcee and Knock Out then come out.
"Let's do this," says Arcee.
The five bots try to fight Devastator, but he proves too tough. He keeps kicking them around. Then the shard glows again and zaps the five bots.
"Alright," says Miko.
They then combine. Ultra Magnus is the torso. Arcee's one arm. Smokescreen's another arm. Wheeljack's the legs. Knockout's a weapon.
"Cool," says Miko, "it needs a name. Wait, I got it, Auto-Knight!"
Auto-Knight then fights Devastator. The two bots seemed evenly matched. Then Auto-Knight pokes Devastator in the eyes. Devastator then lifts up Auto-Knight and throws... wait, would it be him? Anyway, the sword started to glow, and Auto-Knight sliced at Devastator, knocking him down and reducing him back into the Constructicons. Auto-Knight then turned back into the five bots.
"Uh... what just happened," asks Smokescreen.
. . .
The constructicons were then tied up in energy chains.
"So, I guess we settled things, Scrapper," says Knock Out.
"I'm sorry," says Scrapper, "do I know you?"
"Knock Out? You ruined my paint job?" Scrapper still has no idea who he is, but seriously their rivalry started because a paint job? "I called you Constructicons idiots?" Still nothing. "You called me a lady!"
"Well, this is embarrassing," says Arcee, "let's take these guys back to Cybertron."
"And we'll take the shard back to Unit: E," says Jack, "come by anytime."
"And we can show you guys around Cybertron," says Smokescreen.
"So, Bulkhead and Bumblebee couldn't make it," asks Miko.
"We were the only ones available," says Wheeljack, "but Bee's getting a new job."
"What about Prime," asks Fowler.
"We... don't wanna talk about it," says Wheeljack.
The Autobots activate the Space Bridge.
"Let's go team," says Ultra Magnus as they take the Constructicons away.
"Hey, Knock Out," says Agent Fowler, "you did good."
"Thanks," says Knock Out.
It was good seeing the Autobots again. Now, we got our own mission to complete.
In the next chapter, Jack gets bitten by Serpentor's child. Also, Devastator here is based on the movie version. Also, Auto-Knight is made up for this.
