"Are you positive?" Optimus asked as he rushed into the command centre
"Pod confirmed, not sure if its medical and judicial" Rhinox said
"SO we don't know if it's a prisoner or patient" Optimus snorted "Airazor come in"
"I read you Optimus, I'm already on my way" Airazor said
"Good" Optimus said
"Rhinox prepare the medbay in case" Optimus ordered
"Yes sir" Rhinox said
"What should we do?" Izuku asked as he and Todoroki ran over to them
"Get back to school" Optimus nodded before the sirens sounded "Slag!" he snouted
"Just be lucky this isn't England" Todoroki said
"What is it?" Izuku asked
"We're detecting an enemy presence, but this is the first time we've picked up anything like that" Optimus said
"Airazor it looks like we picked up a Predacon" Rhinox said
"Do you know who?" Airazor asked
"No" Optimus said "YOU TWO GET TO SCHOOL NOW!" he shouted at the students.
In the skies Airazor was flying at mach speed, hoping to get to the pod before the Predacon could.
"I have to move" she said before the distinctive sound of buzzing enter her audio preceptors. She focus on the sound and saw who it was "You have to be kidding me, Airazor to base" she said
"Come in Airazor" Optimus said
"it's Stinger or whatever he's new name is" Airazor said
"Seriously?" Rhinox asked "Isn't Stinger just a basic scout?" rattrap asked
"Yeah he is, so why did Galavar send him" Optimus pondered
"OPTIMUS!" Airazor said seeing the pod "It's one of ours" Airazor told them
"Recover it NOW!" Optimus ordered
"You got it. She increased her speed, and then struck Waspinator
"What hit Waspinator?" Waspinator asked
"An interesting name change Stinger" Airazor said
"Jet femme turned into birdy bot?" Waspinator asked
"I see your intelligence hasn't been boosted" Airazor taunted as she headed for the pod
"Birdy bot not getting pod, Lord Megatron has decreed Waspinator get it for him, if not then Waspinator Terminate Pod!" he told her.
"What?" Airazor exclaimed, shocked and slightly disgusted at what the Predacons were trying to do.
"So I found this thing" Kirishima said as he tapped on the side of a metallic object
"The school time capsule?" Kaminari asked as he and Mina had followed Kirishima to the woods
"That's what I thought at first, but check this out" the redhead said pointing out a face on the side of it "I think this is one of those pods Optimus was talking about
"Incredible, but how do we move it?" Mina asked
"Maybe one of the others?" Kaminari asked.
"What like Sero?" Mina asked
"I'm thinking more Sato" Kirishima admitted
"Oh yeah" the two said before Kaminari called him over the phone
"So who do you think is inside?" Mina asked
"I'm not sure" Kirishima shrugged.
"OPTIMUS, WE HAVE TO SECURE THE POD!" Airazor shouted as she flew after Waspinator
"Why, you make it sound urgent" Optimus said
"That's because it is!" Airazor said "If he can't get the pod Waspinator has been ordered to destroy it!" she shouted
"NO!" Optimus said "We don't have anyone else who can help you!" he shouted
"Damn" Airazor cursed as she tried to go after as fast as she could, slowly gaining on Waspinator. "I'm an idiot, Airazor MAXIMIZE!" she shouted transforming in mid air, only losing a foot in height before she flew at Waspinator. Tilting her wrist down, two small rockets popped up out of her wrist. She quickly fired them at Waspinator, who was chuckling as he was going to get to the pod first
"Waspinator is going to get the pod, and Waspinator not been blown yet, which is a hap" he said before the rockets impacted against him making him fly up into the air more, only in a uncontrolled spin. Airazor quickly flew at the pod, only to be fired upon.
"What?" Airazor asked as she saw two more predacons, these two being a dinosaur like one and a condor
"Maximal in sight, and so is the pod" the Condor said "I'll take the bird You grab that pod" he said
"You got it Laserbeak" the dinosaur said.
"I mean it Terrosaur, Galavar wants that pod in one piece if it is one of ours, otherwise make sure they can't recover it" Laserbeak said as he chased after Airazor "The falcon is mine" he darkly chuckled
"Bring it con" Airazor said shifting to beast mode and flying away from him.
"Airazor can you identify the Predacons?" Optimu asked
"Yeah looks like Terrawing how is now called Terrorsaur and Laserbeak" Airazor said
"Laserbeak!" Rhinox gasped
"YOU know hm?" Izuku asked
"Yeah Laserbeak was a Decepticon during the Great war" Optimus said
"The he joined the predacons, being refortmated." Rhinox said
"So what are you guys going to do?" Izuku asked
"I wonder what their goal is" Optimus said
"Optimus, maybe you should head out" Rhinox said
"Good idea" Optimus said before an alert went off. "What is it?"
"A second pod!" Rhinox panicked
"WHERE!" Optimus shouted
"UA" Rhinox said "And I think someone found it"
"How can you tell?" Todoroki asked
"Its moving slowly on the ground" Rhinox said
"Have Cheetor assist with that pod, I'll head out to help Airazor" Optimus ordered
"GOT IT!" Rhinox said as he opened a gate for Optimus, who ran through it, ending up in the sky
'OPTIMUS PRIMAL MAXIMIZE!" he shouted transforming and then using his jump jets to fly after the predacons.
"Wow, so it is one of the pods" Sato said as he walked over to it, Shoji with him
"Yeah, and I think there's a Maximal inside" Kirishima nodded
"Okay then" Sato said as he downed some sugar increasing his strength and picked up the pod, grunting as he felt the weight of it, he slowly moved. Mina,Kirishiama, Kaminari and Shoji moved alongside them
"I wonder who's inside" Mina asked excited
"I'm not sure" Kirishima said before he saw a slam blinking red light "Um guys"
"That must be a tracker of some kind" Shoji said
"Oh great" Kaminari grunted before they started to be on guard
"Heavy" Sato groaned
"You're doing great Sato" Mina smiled.
"KIDS!" Cheetor shouted as he ran over to them, sliding to a stop and panted "Oh good" he said
"Cheetor, good to see you man" Kirishima smiled
"It's okay you can put the pod down now" Cheetor said and looked over it "Nothing broken, some heat marks from re-entry. Maximal confirmed" Cheetor smiled "Okay, time to see who's inside" he said as he maximised and quickly activated it
"Stasis pod reactivating" the computer said
"Hey big green, can you see who's in this pod?" Cheetor asked
"I'll check, but it's not the only one in play" Rhinox said
"Oh crap, Optimus joined" Terrosaur said
"JUST GET THAT POD!" Laserbeak shouted as he flew after Airazor
"Come on Laserbeak" Airazor said rounding on him and fired a plasma blast at the former Decepticon.
"Nice try" Laserbeak rolled over the plasma burst.
"You're mind Terrorsaur" Optimus shouted as he reached the Terradon, who freaked out and tried to fly fast only to have his feet grabbed by Optimus. "What does Galavar want with the pod?" Optimus asked
"What do you think?" Terrorsaur smirked and tried to peck at Optimus, how grabbed his beak, and forced the dinosaur away.
"We get a new soldier, or you lose a friend" he laughed before timus grunted., the Maximal commander threw the bird away and went after the pod
"Pod reactivation complete" the pod said before it burst open reveal the reactivated transformer. Terrosaur flew after Optimus
"No" Optimus said before he heard something horrible
"Inferno TERROIZE!" he laughed as the giant fire ant transformed an started to use his rockets
"Galavar's noble lieutenant, Inferno!" Optimus growled
"Burn Maximal!" he shouted as he unleashed his flamethrower, a stream of fire was launched at Optimus.
"Lord Megatron, wee have revived the pod, its Inferno" Terrosaur smirked
"Hopefully the other team has a lot better luck' Optimus frowned.
"Pod reactivation complete, please stand back" the pod computer said
"Back up kids" Cheetor said as they all did as the pod broke apart , Cheetor brought out his hunting spear and held it in case
"Well, Howdy ya'll nice to meet 'all. Wait a second where in tarnation am I, this isn't Ekuaris" the maximal said
"Armorodillo!" Cheetor smiled
"Yeah Howdy Spot, good to see 'all again" the maximal nodded
"He has" Mina started
"A Texan Drawl?" Kirishima said
"Howdy humies" the Armordillo said "Nice to meet ya'll I'm Armordillo I moistly fought in the destert of the planet"
"You sound like you're from old west here on Earth" Kaminari commented
"Earth huh, at least they didn't call it planet Dirt" Armordillo spat.
"HEY!" the humans said
"Anyway, I think Primal's got a problem" Cheetor said
"Why?" Armordillo asked
"Inferno was in the other pod" Cheetor frowned
"There was a second pod?" Armordillo asked
"Yeah" Cheetor frowned.
Optimus was dodging the streams of fire from Inferno's cannon. He was trying to get out of the way, but every time he did, he would have to dodge Lazerbeak's blaster which would lead him back into the range of Inferno's line of fire, literally. He needed an option, but he couldn't see one.
"HEY BEASTIE!" a voice shouted as a man with red wings as he flew in "You need a hand?" he asked
"Thanks, but who are you?" Optimus asked
"I'm the second raked hero: HAWKS!" he said as he pulled out two large feathers that acted like swords
"Thanks, but be careful These are more troube then they look"
"Thanks for the head's up" Now each one"
"Optimus!" Airazor swooped n
"Airazor, are you okay?" he asked
"I am, so who is going after who, because I have a strut to pick with Terrorsaur" Airazor said
"I'll get the bug" Hawks said
"no, I'll take Inferno, you take on Laserbeak" Optimus said
"You sure?" Hawks asked
"I am" Optimus said as he flew straight at Inferno, who was laughing at aimed at Optmus
"Okay then" Hawks shrugged and headed for Laserbeak
"Round 2" Airazor said as she flew at Terrosaur
"Uh oh" Terrosaur gulped
"BURN MAXIMAL!" inferno shouted as he fired at "that range attack of his is going to be a pain" Optimus said as he flew around the Predacon
"Why did Galavar have to bring him with him" the Maximal leader groaned before firing a pair of missiles, which exploded near the Predacon "And how is he flying?" Optimus asked as he circled him. "I'm guessing he's an ant, so his he must have a flight system" he pondered looking for it, only to find it on the back of Inferno where the end of the ant was, which had turned into a rocket powered propella "Found the flights system" he said pulling out a sword and flinging it at Inferno, who batted it away this gun.
"You think you can trick me Maximal? By the command of the royalty, BURN!" Inferno shouted as he opened fired, small explosions battering Optimus.
"Well that's juts prime" he grunted and flew at Inferno again, passing Hawks and Laserbeak
"So ugly what's your story?" Hawks said
"Your killer" Laserbeak said snapping at the hero, who used his feather swords to deflect Laserbeak's attacks, which attack was turned away
'He's good, he may be an experienced
"So you must be skilled to face me and still live" Laserbeak chortled. Hawks growled and flew at the Condor Predacon. He needed to keep them distracted until more heroes arrived on scene, his feathers could pick up the subtle changes of wind that could tell him with the alien robot would attack. Hawks flew up and over Laserbeak, getting a strike on the back of it,
"YOU FLESHBAG!" Laserbeak snapped as he unleashed a loud sonic blast, making the small bones in Hawk's ear ring an and vibrate making Hawks cover them and dropping his blade while he tried not to scream.
"That's loud" Hawks grunted. Airazor heard the attack and looked at Laserbeak, she needed to finish up with Terrosaur and help the human, she fired beams of hot plasma at the red dinosaur, who was flying through the clouds, using them as cover so the falcon couldn't hit him
"Terrorsaur, TERROIZE!" he shouted transformed and turned to face Airazor, deploying his shoulder cannons and opened fire, each shot missing Airazor barely, leaving a small explosion
"Not good" Airazor said as she was getting tired being the one up there the longest. Optimus noticed this and shot at Terrosaur, who fired back
"Maximals, these is tough only Airazor is suited for air combat and even then she's tiring" Optimu noticed, 'Hakws ins in pain.' Suddenly the sound of a ground bridge opened up making everyone pause and looked as something fell through it.
"YEEHAH!" Armordillo laughed as he landed on Laserbeak
"What, what are you doing?" Laserbeak snapped
"Oh just giving you a welcome to earth present" Armordillo said as he panted bomb on Laserbeak's back and then jumped off in time with the bomb blowing up making him fly towards Terrosaur, he curled up into a ball and using the air rushing past him to spin,
"WHAT" Terorsaur said before he got hit in the face by the armadillo Maximal,
"Armordillo maximize!" he shouted shifting to robot mode and then pulled out his chain mace "Giddy up pardner" Armordillo called out wrapping his chain around Terrorsaur's leg and using it to propel himself over to Inferno
"BURN!" Infero shouted as he aimed at Armordillo and fired at the orange maximal, who got near Inferno and punched him in the face before he planted a bomb on Inferno's flight system. "HAPPY TRAILS!" Armordillo called out detonating the bomb
"AGHHHH! " Inferno shouted as he pummelled toward the ground
"Oh hey Optimus, a pleasure to see you" Armordillo said quickly as he entered a new ground bridge, Optimus looking at it before looking around the open sky.
"Of course he would do something that crazy" he sighed
"WHO WAS THAT!" Hawks shouted as he had a bit of blood dribbling from his ears
"I'll explain later" Optimus responded.
"OKAY THEN!" Hawks shrugged
"PREDACONS FALL BACK!" Laserbeak shouted as he opened a dark ground bridge allowing the three Predacons retreat
"HEY!" Hawks shouted
"Let them go" Optimus said
"YSURE?" Hawks asked
"I am" Optimus nodded "and you better get to a healer"
"So you managed to secure our ally Inferno, but they were able to recover a pod themselves; one we didn't detect" Megatron said as he rested in his chair as Laserbeak was before him
"Yes lord Megatron" Laserbeak bowed before him
"And you saw Optimus teaming up with a fleshbag?" Megatron asked
"Yes my lord" Laserbeak bowed again
"Interesting, to think they would have human allies already" Megatron frowned
"Apparently they were exposed during a fight between these superhumans" Laserbeak said
"And what happened to the ne Primal defeated?" Megatron asked
"My best guess is that they imprisoned him on the Alchemor" Lazberka said
"The Autobot prison ship on the moon, then it is pointless to seek him out, anyway like our Decepticons brethren, we do not need them, but we will use hem" Megtron said
"Indeed Lord Megatron" Lazerbeak bowed before leaving, along the way to his quarters he bumped into a panther
"How was the mission?" The Panther asked in a deep Russian accent.
"Ravage my brother, it was interesting and we got Inferno back" Laserbeak informed him.
"To think one of our comrades is named after Autobot scum" Ravage said
"Indeed, but the bigger question is what to do, since we need to find the others" he said
"Indeed comrade. If we work with tis fool e will find them, like True Megatron wanted, even if they are locked in prison pods" he growled
"Indeed, my friend, indeed" Laserbeak nodded.
"Nothing like soaking up some of that bright sun huh?" Armordillo asked as he sat out on a rock, sunbathing
"Indeed" Optimus said as he walked over to him "It is good to see you again my old friend"
"Yeah, wasn't expecting our explosive mechanic being in our first pod" Rhinox added
"Still nice to be back with you guys" he smiled. "Now the Predacons being here means that the battleground of the Great Wars is now the arena of the Beast Wars" Armordillo said
"Indeed, and of course we have these new superhumans in the mix" Optimus sighed
"Superhumans?" Armordillo asked
"They seem to each possess a genetic ability, we're still trying to figure it out" Rhinox said. "But for now our main objective is to stop Galavar and rescue our friends in stasis"
"I agree" Optimus frowned as the trio looked to the sky wondering who will be the next to fall, friend or foe. "The Beast Wars has began again, and this time there will be no second place for the Maximals." He declared before roaring.
"So these are the energon signatures I-Island has picked up?" Noah asked
"Yes sir" an agent said
"And there are three of them, one in Nagano, one in Hokkaido and one on I-Island. Which they haven't open yet?" Noah asked
"Correct sir" the Agent nodded
"Any reason why they're not able to?" Noah asked
"No sir" the agent said
"Okay, take Sora with you and go back to I-Island. With her there you should be able to find out what that thing is"
"Yes sir" the agent saluted and walked off. Noah then turned to the map of Japan and put a thumbtack where the second Energon signature was detected
"So we found them" he said as he sat at his desk. "I wonder how the war will turn out with Quirks in the mix." He frowned.
G'day Guys Grizz here and this is the first episode with both the Predacons and the pods entering the action with Armordillo, Laserbeak. Terrorsaur, Waspinator, Inferno and Ravage being introduced. And yes I'm keeping the whole gunslinger attitude for Armordillo who is a mechanic and explosive expert. ANd yes I will be bringing in other Autobots and Decepticons as Maximals and Predacons. I have plans for a couple of them in the future, but the rest is up in the air for now
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside.
