( A couple of weeks after the whole fiasco at the now abanded M.E.C.H.  band with Miko no longer allowed to be at the base. Team prime has been trying to assist their now-speed friends in understanding their new abilities. However, while this was going on)

( At the abandoned M.E.C.H. facility )

" Those humans were fools to not destroy this facility. With it, we can create new weapons to destroy the Autobots and their human allies." Said Airachnid. " Indeed, and the two that escaped from us and then humiliated us will suffer. ( Notices a hole in the wall with a light still on). Airachnid over here, I see a light coming from over here." Said Slipstream as she tore open the wall to make it easier for them to walk into." ( looks at a console with a flashing light before walking up to it and turning it on). It looks like Silas had contingency plans in case our little experiment failed. ( points to a screen showing different projects). Hold on a second. Take a look at this one, it says that this project was built to replicate some of the blue hedgehog's abilities. That means this one can keep up with our two-speed failures." Said. Airachnid as she presses the activation button and watches something appears from a pod.

( Metalik)

" ( looks to her left to see two similar-looking mechs to the Autobot leader).  Hu, what are these two mechs over here. ( points to the two machines plugged up to a wall to her left). what does he call these?" Asked Slipstream. " It says here that he calls them Nemissis prime 2.4. These machines were created to be a match for the Autobot leader, Optimus Prime. ( looks at the two machines). These two things are supposed to be equal to Optimus." Said Airachnid. " ( presses a button on the console while hearing Airachnid walk up next to her as a recording of an Optimus prime clone battles Optimus). Well, well, well. It looks like these actually can keep up with the big red. Though it seems that one needed a pilot. ( looks at a description of version 2.4. However, it seems these two have all of Optimus primes skill and intellect. ( looks at the two mechs again before pressing a few buttons on the console). Let's make it to where all the machines will serve on us... and finished. Now all these machines belong to us." Slipstream. " Good, I just called an old friend of ours to come at say hi to those Autobots,  they will be here within the week. For now, let's end that metal hedgehog and see how it does against those failed experiments. ( turns on the machine and watches the metal human zoom out of the room). This is going to be very interesting." Said Airachnid as she activates a satellite camera to watch the metal human at work.

( Meanwhile at Omega base one)

" ( Runs around the entire base before spin dashing a stack of barrels). WAHOO THIS IS AWESOME! I'm loving this. How are you doing over there Jack?  ( looks up to her right to see him dodging barrels thrown at him by either teleporting or destroying them with his energy spears). Looks like your getting a workout in. ( immodestly jumps high in the air to avoid a destroyed car being thrown at her before jumping through the broken front window and out through the back window f another destroyed car). You missed me Wheeljack." Said Arcee as she rubs her nose with a grin on her face. " I wouldn't be so sure about that. ( presses a bottom and watches the second destroyed car blow up and knock Arcee to the ground). Now how is it you can move fast but you still didn't see a bomb in the back seat of the car? You're letting your partner show you up Arcee. ( points to Bulkhead throwing 5 cars at Jack and watches him jump through or over three of the cars before flipping onto the last two and doing an extra jump to avoid the fifth car as it blows up). You started earlier than him and yet he's already better at it than you... You used an after image before the car exploded didn't you?" Asked Wheel jack as he watches an operation of arcee dissipate from the ground floor as another appeared standing up. " Finally caught that one hu, Jacks been helping me get the hang of these  Abilities that we got from that machine. though what surprises me so far is that we're at equal speed. Oh and by the way, from now on call me Sonya from now on. Jack said to also call him Shane." Said Arcee as she and Wheeljack ran after Jack and Bulkhead when they heard the base alert go off.

( play this song while reading the chapter).

"( Looks on the screen to see a worried Fowler). Agent Fowler, what seems to be the problem?" Asked Optimus. " I'LL TELL YOU WHAT THE PROBLEM IS,A METAL HUMINOD JUST SHOWED UP OUT OF NOWHERE  AND JUST STARTED ATTACKING US. This thing is just too fast for us to hit prime. We've tried to slow it down but it keeps doing some kind of spin move to avoid our traps." Said Fowler as she turns the camera to show Metalic dashing around the base to dodge bullets and cannon fire.

" That thing looks a lot like you Sonya, just in a male format." Said Smokescreen. " Ya it does. What do think about this Shane. ( looks behind her only to see no one there before starting to look around until she hears an explosion on screen at turns back to the monitor to see Shane standing on a beam right above the metal humanoid). What does he think he's doing. ( Watches the Metal humanoid spin dash towards Fowler). FOWLER GET DOWN THAT THINGS SPOTTED YOU." Said Sonya. " ( looks towards the incoming spinning metal ball and stands still in fear until the blue spinning ball is intercepted by a red one and watches as the two spinning balls clash while voicing off the walls). Looks like I'm gonna oh the kid one. ( watches as the two spinning balls stop and watch as the two speedsters stare at each other). Thanks for the help Shane I ogh you one." Said Fowler.

" YOUR GONNA BE OHGING ME A LOT MORE IF YOU DON'T GET THSES SOLDIERS OUT OF HERE NOW! ( watches as the metal humanoid runs at five injured soldiers). Oh no, you don't tin can, get back here. ( zooms over towards the soldiers and kicked the metal human away from them before looking at the humanoid). What even are you anyway, you look like my partner but your all metallic. What are you even called anyway?" Said Shane.

" ( Watches as Shane battles the humanoid before hearing the robot call itself, Metalik before it begins to fight Shane again). Hold on Shane, I'm on my way. ( zooms out of the base before seeing Metalik knock Shane back). Hey, tin-can, why do you try fighting us both. ( watches the robot spin dash towards her before countering with her own six times). Why are you attacking this place, what's your game here?" Said Sonya. " My mission was to draw out the two failures of project chaos and destroy them. I will now complete my task by eliminating the two of you." Said  Metalik.

"( Watches Metalik battle Sonya and Shane). I must say that watching this fight is very entertaining. However, I think it's time we made things a little more interesting. ( presses a button and watches as twenty giant pods are launched into the air and head straight for the battle zone). This will be fun to see, though I wonder if there are any more of these creations. ( watches Slipstream press a few keys before looking at other humanoid hedgehogs). Very interesting." Said Airachnid. " It seems your buddy Silas had planned to create an army with all of these humanoids as his generals. Though it doesn't matter now. Let's go join our creation in getting rid of that pest." Said Slipstream as she transformed into her jet mode and flew towards the battle zone.

" ( watches as twenty pods crash land scattered around the military base). Fowler, forget about trying to get your soldiers out of there, it looks like your all going to need to hunker down anywhere where there are some heavy weapons." Said Shane as he landed next to him while Sonya continued to battle Metalik. " Ok, but what makes you say that son. ( orders the soldiers to hunker down in a hanger bay before watching the twenty pods begin to open as giant mechs walk out of the pods). Ah, I see what you mean." Said Fowler. " Sonya, I'm gonna need to help Fowler and his men, can you occupy the metal man." Said Shane as he looked at the mechs.

" Sure, no problem but try and make it quick. remember this guy was made to combat the two of us. (  uses her left hand to tap the earpiece in her left ear). What's wrong ratchet, is there something we missed?" Said Sonya. 

(Mechs)    

" You have four Energon signatures closing on your position. we know that two of them are Airachnid and slipstream but we don't know who the third one is." Said Ratchet. " Well, don't ground bridge anyone yet. At least not until we can decide who the other two are one is. ( Looks at Shane). Hey Partner, heads up, Airachnid and Slipstream are on their way here along with an unknown party." Said Sonya as she dodged a dive kick from Metalik. "  Then it must be the tow cars that I can see zooming towards us. ( jumps out of the way of six missiles before spinning dashing four of the mechs ). I love that move. ( looks to his left where the missiles came from to see Slipstream and Airachind). They must have a portable ground bridge for them to have gotten here that fast. ( dodges five bullets from one of the mechs before jumping back to avoid a fist to the ground by Airachnid).  This has just gotten a whole lot harder." Said Shane.

" Hello there Jack, it's been a while hasn't it. Do you miss little old me?" Sia d Airachnid as she tries to smash Shane only for him to continuously dodge her attacks. " Why in the world would I miss a creep like you that been after my head ever since i first meet you. ( Teleports away from Airachnid to dodge an ax kick from Slipstream). Oh ya, this is gonna get really hard. ( hears the sound of an engine roar before watching as a red and white car zooms over his head and slams into Slipstream before transforming into a robot). Woo, Who the heck are you." Said Shane. 

( Override)

" No time for that right now. deal with those robots while me and my partner handle these two." Said the robot as a pink and white car slams into Airachnid. " Sure thing and thanks for the help. ( runs towards five of the mechs that were attacking a squad of soldiers before launching energy spears at the mechs and watches them explode). This shouldn't take long now with the extra backup." Said Shane as he ran at the remaining mechs.

" ( looks up to see what hit her only to glare at the robot in front of her). What are you doing here? I thought I got rid of you during our last confrontation." Said Slipstream as she grapples with the robot. " You really think you could get away with destroying six civilian planets, you must have been paying attention when i said that I would bring you in for your crimes on Cybertron and my home planet of Caminus." Said The Robot as six explosions go off.

( Meanwhile, back with Sonya)

"( Zooms around the room while clashing with Metalik and trying to keep him away from the the soldiers before watching as  Airachind crashes through the wall as a  pink robot jumps into the room after her.)  This is just getting way out of hand. ( Turns towards Metalik before trading punches him along with four spin dashes). I hope your almost done over there Shane. ( gets spindshed into a wall twice). Beause this is starting to get harder as we go." Said Sonya as she gets ready to dodge another Spin dash from Metalik only to watch as its intercepted by a red one and watches as the red spinning ball unrolls to reveal Shane. 

( Elita-One)

" Its lucky that i just finished then. ( snaps his fingers as five explosions are heard around them). Now then, lets deal with this one shall we. I've about had it with all of this mess. ( grabs Sonya's right hand and looks at her). I learned an ability that  i have been wanting to try for a while.  CHAOS-CONTROL! ( watches as everything around them starts to stand still before looking at Sonya and sees her shocked face). I learned that i can freeze time for however long I want. ( looks towards Metalik). An as for this guy. ( holds out his right and as times unfreezes). CHAOS-BLAST! " Said Shane as he and Sonya watch as Metalik is sent crashing through seven walls before slamming into the eighth before watching shut down.

"( watches as Metalik is sent flying before watching him power down).  Curses, i had hoped that he would have lasted a little bit longer. No matter, he still has a purpose to serve. ( looks at the pink robot). It seems we will have to pick this up another time Elita.  ( /transforms into her helicopter mode). Enjoy your time earth, Slipstream lets go." Said Airachnid as she flies off before sporting Slipstream fly beside her with Metalik in her pilot seat.

( Six hours later at Omega base one )

"If it wasn't for you Shane, we would have lost a lot of good men and women during that attack. The U.S.  military oghs you our thanks." Said Fowler. " Its no problem at all, especially since that think attacked to get me and Sonyas attention anyway. Though the question now is to figure out their next plan." Said Shane as he looked down at the ground worried. "You're right about that, it was able to match our speed perfectly. It was only because of my years of training and reflexes that I was able to hold out for as long as I did." Said Sonya as Fowler salutes them before heading out to report to his superiors. 

" It is good to see the two of you again, though I wish it were in better circumstances." Said Bumblebee. "It's ok Bee, we're just glad we were able to make it there in time. ( looks at Sonya). So Arcee, how does it feel not having a metal body?" Said Override. "It's actually not that bad. I'm just glad I got turned into something that can take a hit. ( looks at Shane). How much of a hit can we take anyway?" Said Sonya. " We can take hits like the one I gave Metalik. The only problem is that unlike him, we'll still feel it. So I'd say to be more careful of your opponent from now on." Said Shane. "That's good to know, it means I can take a certain amount of hits and keep fighting." Said Sonya. 

" This is all well in good,  but we need to prepare for whatever those two will through at us next. Though from what you told me Elita, we will be expecting another member to join our team." Said Ultra-Magnus. "That's right,  she the same rank as me, though she started as a fan of Optimus believe it or not. So she changed her frame to be similar to his. She also said that she was already in this sector because she had been chasing an escaped convict. A con by the name Overlord." Said Elita. " What is the name of this brave soldier?" Asked Optimus. " Her name... is Causeway and I think she will be a perfect addition to your team.
