The Brave-Bots (Pt. 3)
Here's the next part, thx to ECHO-173 for his help, enjoy.
Out in the deserts of Nevada, there was an old missile silo built into one of the tall rocky mountains. Equipped with many further than state of the art technology.
Seemingly parked on an open runway, was a massive spaceship known by all Cybertronians as the Steelhaven used by the Cybertron Elite Guard to travel.
The Steelhaven had a fair amount of dings and dents along the roof on the top. On the top, fixing said dents and dings was; Arcee,
Windblade,
Sideswipe,
Wheeljack,
Whirl,
And Bumblebee.
From shortest to tallest, it was Bumblebee, Arcee, Windblade, Whirl, Sideswipe, and Wheeljack.
Sideswipe: Ugh! Why do we need to buff out the dents when Sentinel was the one who couldn't pilot this thing!?
Sideswipe threw down his dolly, making another dent.
Bumblebee: Because Sentinel wanted Optimus alone. They both took the test for the Matrix of Leadership.
Wheeljack: Ha! That stuck up fume sucker?! I'd love to see
Whirl: I bet 40 Energon Tanks that Sentinel just rode Optimus' rear tail fairings for that entire test.
Acree: Make it 50 and you're on.
Sideswipe: Hey, I want in on this!
After a bit more buffing out the dents were almost all gone.
Wheeljack: Alright, just some more work and I'd say she is ready to fly again.
Arcee: Why are all starships are "she"?
Sideswipe: I don't know, 'cause it takes a lot of paint to make them look good.
Both Wheeljack and Sideswipe starting laughed before turning to see Arcee with a wrench and Windblade with her sword. Both were very angry.
Bumblebee: You both have scrap for brains.
Whirl: Oh, don't sweat the small stuff and- Wait! That's not what I meant!
Bumblebee: WHO YOU CALLING SMALL!?!?!?
Whirl immediately began running from Bumblebee as Arcee and Windblade chased Wheeljack and Sideswipe. Inside the ship, Optimus Prime was speaking to two other Primes. Sentinel Prime.
And Ultra Magnus.
There was a video feed being sent to Cybertron, most likely to Cybertron's government.
Ultra Magnus: Alright, Optimus, tell us what has happened to Earth's space bridge.
Optimus: Megatron was attempting to open a portal to the Decepticon planet Chaar. Upon confronting him, Megatron revealed the ace up his sleeve, the DarkSpark.
Sentinel: You expect us to believe that Megatron had the Dark--
Ultra Magnus silenced Sentinel Prime by lifting his hand.
Ultra Magnus: Let's say we believe Megatron had a hold of the DarkSpark. How does it explain the spatial flux that caused the Space Bridge to implode?
Optimus Prime sighed and opened his chest cavity, showing that the Matrix of Leadership wasn't there anymore. This shocked all the Elite Guard
Optimus: Megatron fought back using the DarkSpark's power and as such, I retaliated with Matrix.
Sentinel grabbed Optimus with his weapon at the Autobot leader's neck.
Sentinel: So you sacrificed Cybertron's most sacred relic!?
Ultra Magnus placed his hammer on Sentinel away from Optimus.
Ultra Magnus: Given the situation, I understand how the Space Bridge was destroyed now. The clash between these two powerful yet opposing relics...
Optimus: Distorted space-time and caused the space bridge to collapse in on itself.
Sentinel: Hopefully it took Megatron out for good this time. Unlike someone who lacks the ball bearings to do the job!
Ultra Magnus: With all due respect, Sentinel, you better watch where you step, if this relic was real then it was for the best to destroy it rather than let the Decepticons use it more for evil. I would say we move every Autobot we have here to face the Decepticons but we need to protect our home world and the rest of our forces are stretched thin. I'm sorry Optimus Prime, I wish we could help more.
Optimus: I don't blame you old friend, though with the Matrix gone, I'm afraid I too lost the title of Prime.
Ultra Magnus: You'll always be a Prime to me.
Sentinel: What about me? I had the Matrix before him!
Ultra Magnus: Don't forget, it left you for Optimus. I out rank you in every way Sentinel, remember that. (to Optimus) But I must ask, are you sure the Autobots you hand pick will do, the Wreckers choose to say with you I know but you could still have picked a more stable crew.
Optimus: I have know these Autobots for decacycles, old friend. Arcee, Bumblebee, Prowl, Ratchet, they were the first I chose to aid me, the rest willingly wanted to follow, I trust them with my life, they are the best I know.
The meeting was then interrupted as they heard a crashing sound with Sentinel turning on a monitor that showed Whirl crashing into the side of the ship with Bumblebee tackling him to the side before it turned into a full out brawl between the two that was quickly stopped as both Wheeljack and Sideswipe crashed into them in their vehicle modes.
Ultra Magnus: Most of them are your best...
Optimus: They are my best... I never said they were the most calm.
Ultra Magnus: (pats Optimus' shoulder) I wish you the best of luck.
Sentinel: My ship! I told them to buff it out not make more dents!
Ultra Magnus: You trusted this task with Whirl among them.
Sentinel: Slaggit, you make a good point. Hmm? Something else is alerting the systems.
Sentinel changes the camera view to a robot just outside the base. The hostile was as large as the ship, it was a large metallic being, a robotic being with a large coil on its chest and horn-like parts on the side of its head facing its view, almost looking like a magnet.
Sentinel: What in the name of the All Spark is that thing!? (presses a button) Jazz! (gets no reply) JAZZ!!!
Ultra Magnus: How did it get past our defenses?
Optimus looked at the screen closer as the robot walked through the barrier, it seemed to be absorbing the energon that made up the shield.
Optimus: The hostile seems to be absorbing the energon shield around the ship. (hits a button) Autobots, Transform and Prepare for battle!
*****
Outside the ship, upon hearing Optimus, the Autobots stopped their little fighting to see the hostile threat heading towards them. They quickly rose up, taking this situation seriously. Bumblebee changed his shape and transformed into a car and raced towards the robot while evading to be seen. Whirl turned to Whindblade who nodded, the both took to the skies for aerial support. Arcee dashed past both Wheeljack and Sideswipe who quickly followed here into the upcoming battle.
Arcee: Alright here is the plan, Bumblebee will take a close look, Wheeljack, Sideswipe, you're both with me. Whirl, Windblade stay in the sky to give up cover fire from above. Ready, go!
Autobots: ROGER!
Below the ship, the Cyber-Ninja of the Cybertron Elite Guard, Jazz.
Jazz was looking over some engine parts as ordered by Sentinel, with no interruption. Before getting a call from Sentinel, having no choice he answered it.
Jazz: (in his comm link) I hear you!
Sentinel: JAZZ! Forget the inspection, get our defenses up and running, set all guns to go!
Jazz: Well...
Jazz turns the corner to see the robot using the coil and head piece to pull the parts he was inspecting off to it.
Jazz: I can tell you that won't happen due to the short cut you insisted we took.
Sentinel: Just fight the enemy!
Jazz sighed and transformed into his Alt Mode and charged at the large robot as it was coming fully through the shield. The hostle robot made it through the shields of the ship and kept marching, they then noticed the three Autobots racing towards them. The laser on their chest started to glow then release a red beam that the Autobots dodged. However, Jazz got an arm caught in it.
Arcee: Scrap, it got Jazz!
Sideswipe: Jazz, are you okay!
Jazz was getting pulled toward the robot by his arm, at first it was slow before suddenly being launched at the force of a cannon ball nearly hitting Wheeljack who ducked in time.
Jazz: Thanks... Could've been less rough though... What is this? A Decepticon?
Windblade: (over her commlink) Everyone, I can sense something is off them. This is not a Decepticon! It is a mech piloted by someone!
Whirl: (through comms) She means her sensors are picking up a living human inside the robot. You know, with her "City Speaker powers" HA!
Windblade: Whirl, one of these day-- LOOK OUT!
The two dodged a beam firing at them, luckily it missed.
Whirl returned fire immediately, but the armor of the robot seemed to absorb his shots.
Whirl: Fraggit, this thing is absorbing my laser shots! I'm going in!
Arcee: Whirl, wait, if there is a human in there we can't harm them!
Whirl: Sorry, the Bot you're trying to reach can't answer the phone right now, leave a message after the explosion!
Whirl fired his entire stockpile of missiles but they were intercepted by the robot's magnetic beam.
Whirl: YOU'VE GOTTA BE PULLING MY CRACKCASE RIGHT NOW!!!!
Inside the hostile robot was a man with blonde hair and blue eyes piloting the robot.
???: Ha! These are the oh-so powerful transformers!
The mad man then tried to fire another beam that missed its target, their aim was seriously looking bad. Everyone started to get closer so they could hit the hostel robot, it was easy since they had such bad aim. Almost too bad. Whirl then had a realization.
Whirl: Oh slag! (over comms) guys keep your distance!
Sideswipe: (mid-charge) Why-
Sideswipe's arm suddenly flattens like a pancake as he swings his blade. The robot had a magnetic field that was crushing his arm.
Sideswipe: GRAAAAHHHH!!!
Whirl: He made his aim look bad on purpose to make us draw in! Keep you-- (gets hit) GAH! MY EXHAUST PORT! WHY IS THAT THE ONLY TARGET TODAY!
Wheeljack: Bots down! Bots Down!
Wheeljack and Jazz pulled Sideswipe to safety as the robot continued to fire at them. Whirl crashed right next to them, Windblade wanted to land and elp him but he singled her to stay in the sky.
Bumblebee: (into his comm link) Ratchet! We need a ground bridge! We've got two bots down and no way to get inside!!
Suddenly a swirling vortex opens inside the autobot's cover and Arcee and Bumblebee drag Whirl and Sideswipe into it.
???: (from a speaker) Foolish, little Autobots! Transformers or whatever you want to be called! You metal pests will rue the day you land on Earth! Says I, the great Dr. Gauss!
Whirl: (laughing) HAHAHA! NO WAY! That is your name! It sounds like Gas! That is so lacking in intimidation! Give yourself a better name-
Acree hits Whirl before dragging him into the ground bridge while Dr. Gauss began to fire his magnet beam out of rage.
Dr. Gauss: How about I just destroy you little robots once and for all! You have ruined my life!
Whirl: Geez, did we crush your house or something, send us the insurance bill! Wheeljack made an insurance company for this!
Whirl is thrown through the ground bridge by arcee and it shuts behind him.
Wheeljack: Best for intergalactic accidents and just for pennies a day!
Sideswipe: Cheap! (To Dr. Gauss) What did we do to you?
Dr. Gauss fired another beam, this time hitting Sideswipe's should, knocking him down before being pulled towards them. Arcee run to grab Sideswipe and keep them from being pulled towards the mad Dr. Gauss. She didn't expect Whirl to jump out of the ground Bridge to get back into the air, firing multiple missiles that missed Dr. Gauss but made a snake all around him.
Dr. Gauss: I don't have to speak about myself to you, a lot of worthless metal! Once you're gone, the Decepticons are next! All you freaks off--
Before Dr. Gauss finished his rant, Bumblebee jumped from behind a boulder behind the robot and fired a beam of electricity from his stingers at their back. It was direct it but did little damage.
The robot then spun around before Bumblebee looked down to see it had wheels for feet. They then tried another beam nearly hitting Bumblebee who transformed and started driving circles around them.
Bumblebee was about to start and make it to cover before being hit by the beam and was being pulled towards the robot. He drove as fast as he could but used something he had just in case. The sides of alt mode opened up with two rockets popping out and giving him a speed boost to get away from the doctor and hide before a rock.
Bumblebee: That was close, if a miracle doesn't happen soon, we're going to be Cybertoast.
Suddenly, the Autobots hear a police siren, Bumblebee uses his advanced robotic eyes to see Deckerd in Car Mode driving toward the base.
Bumblebee: Do we have any Autobot Police Cars?
Arcee: None that I know of.
Deckerd charged through the barrier and transformed. Taking out his revolver and badge.
Deckerd: Hold Up! Brave Police, Deckerd!
Bumblebee: Is that a robot police officer?
Windblade saw Deckerd, there was something off about them, something new and yet brave.
Deckerd: Step out of the robot with your hands up, then hand over license and registration, please.
Dr. Gauss: Ha! You'll just become scrap for my genius to remake!!
Dr. Gauss turned his robot and fired his magnetic beam at Deckerd, but as it hit him, nothing happened.
Dr. Gauss/Autobots: WHAT?!!?
Deckerd: (thinking) How?
Chip: (through Deckerd's comm) You're made of Non-Ferromagnetic metals.
Deckerd: Chief?
Chip: I'm calling from your internal comm link.
Deckerd: Understood! I will be precise with upper handing this foe and arresting him with full occurrence to the law.
Chip: You're weapons shoot real projectiles! Dr. Gauss has committed several accounts of theft, assault, and attempted murder. You are free to fire at his robot! Aim for the coil!
Deckerd feels a surge of information
Deckerd: I understand! (to Dr. Gauss) Dr. Gauss, you will be arrested for your crimes, but will be adding a hate crime to your criminal record for blaming Transformers for your actions that cost you job.
Whirl: Wait, he is doing this because he blames us for losing his job? Dumba-
Ratchet's arms come through the ground bridge, throwing a wrench at Whirl's tail making him spin out of control before he lands next to Bumblebee in his robot mode.
Whirl: Ow, the frag Ratchet! Third time in the last half hour!
From the ship, the entire fight between Gauss and Deckerd was being recorded, and unknowingly, being sent to Cybertron's online servers. Many of the Cybertronians watching this were either impressed or confused.
Arcee: Is that a Cybertronian?
Jazz: (touches his visor) My database has no information on him. If he's from Cybertron, he's newly made.
Windblade: He is something more... this life I see in him, he is young, almost like a newborn, so young but yet experienced and grown. Willing to start life this brave.
Whirl: Laaaaaaaaaame- (gets hit by another wrench) OW MY ONE OPTIC!
Dr. Gauss launched the missiles at Deckerd but he shot one bullet through the missiles. Mid-flight, the bullet absorbs the energon in the missiles and creates a powerful energy explosion that knocks.
Whirl: .... I want one.
Optimus: (through comms) No.
Chip: (prideful tone) The chemical makeup of your bullets are Non-Ferromagnetic and react violently to Enegron.
Solus: (in the background of the comm link) You sure prepped a lot.
Chip: I can't prepare for how powerful Deckerd is compared to these bad guys, but I can gather information. And I've gathered a lot of info, we may lose battles over power, but we will never lose one in information.
Deckerd was moving around nearly at a blinding speed to avoid the missiles, as each one was launched he calculated before getting what he needed.
Deckerd: Analysis complete. Time to finish this.
As Dr. Gauss was about to fire another set of missiles, Deckerd took aim before firing, almost seeming like he was about to miss before each shot hit a missle right as it was leaving the robot, each one blowing up and destroying most of the robots body.
Dr. Gauss: What the-- Wait, he wasn't just dodging, he was analyzing and calculating my attack patterns?! No, I refuse to lose!
The bullet continued, now increased in speed by the blast, hitting the coil of Dr. Gauss' robot. Inside the cockpit, Dr. Gauss's heart leap from his chest as the bullet came barreling through, nearly missing his head as it created a massive hole into the cockpit
Chip: Deckerd, hit both sides of your badge and aim it at Dr. Gauss
Deckerd: Understood!
Deckerd took out his badge and aimed it at Gauss. Suddenly, a field of Gauss's personal information began swirling around.
Deckerd: Doctor Magnus Gauss. German Scientist of Magnetism. You are suspected of the crimes of Aggravated Assault, Armed Robbery, Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Larceny on several forms, and one account of a hate crime!
Dr. Gauss: What!? No! It's all lies!
Dr. Gauss noticed several texts immediately swarming him. [Accelerated Heart Rate] [Increased Sweating] [Fidgeting Eyes] [Twitching] and many others. Deckerd's badge then flashed a red X.
Deckerd: You Are Guilty As Charged!
Chip: Attach the badge to your gun and take aim.
Deckerd followed Chip's instructions and as his badge transformed into a barrel for his gun. Deckerd then took aim as Dr. Gauss was held in place by several red energy bindings. Deckerd then fired an energy beam at the mad scientist.
The robot police officer then fired a cube of energy, when it made contact with Dr. Gauss, first it formed a cube all around his body. Then it turned from 3D to 2D, flatting Dr. Gauss as thin as paper, before forming a card around him.
The robot exploded as Deckerd turned away and posed.
Whirl: (off-screen) OH MY PRIMUS, HE IS SO GOD DAMN COOL!!!
As Deckerd picks up the now-a-card, unconscious, and clearly soiled pants Dr. Gauss turns to the Autobots who watched them in curiosity before they moved aside to let both Optimus, Sentinel and Ultra Magnus to face Deckerd.
Optimus: Who are you, young Bot?
Sentinel: Wrong question, what is he?!
Deckerd: (shows his badge) Deckerd, currently the only active unit of the Brave-Bots, an Earth-built team of Transformers. I am taking this fugitive into custody in the name of the law.
As Deckerd turned around to leave, Sentinel ran up to them to try and stop him.
Sentinel: Hold it! You're not going anywhere! We have more questions for you!
Sentinel placed one hand on Deckerd, who countered him with a judo throw before placing him in an arm bar lock.
Wheeljack: I like this guy. Still a stick in the mud, but he earned a little respect.
Whirl: Break the arm!
Deckerd: You and Mr. Wheeljack (Wheeljack: Primus that makes me sound old...) has several known warrants. Do not tempt me to enforce the law upon you.
Whirl: OH FRAG HE KNOWS!
Deckerd them releases Sentinel and transforms before driving away. Bumblebee was about to chase after them but Optimus stopped his spunky scout.
Optimus: Windblade sent me a message, she knows where they come from, it is best if we heal ourselves before meeting them again, hopefully, as friends.
The Autobots retire for the day to their base to refuel and repair. The Elite Guard fly off into space to start on their long journey back to Cybertron. Meanwhile, a boom box that was hidden out of sight, then the boombox transformed into a plane and flew off.
That's all for now
