Crystal-formers: Gems in Disguise

Prologue: Stonal's Awakening

The Alchemor, the maximum-security prison ship from the planet Cybertron that holds all different types of Decepticons since during the war. Some caretakers came on and off of duty to keep the ship in check; but the newest was nowhere compared to the other large mechs, and was only there due to the new Cybertronian rule: Rule 669-B.

But, this story takes place just a little after this.

One day, the Alchemor malfunctioned, causing it to fall in the atmosphere of a very familiar planet: Earth. The ship crashed down in a nearby forest, close to the city of Crown City. Stasis pods falling out just before the crash landing, near the areas of both the city and woods.

Some pods broke open, some still functioning; either way, it meant Decepticon prisoners were going to escape, even if it means breaking out of their cells. But there was one in particular, one that held a prisoner that was completely different from the others. One that was the baddest of them all. One that was a menace to both Cybertronian and another worldly being's societies. A mech unlike any one of his two kinds.

Each Stasis pod's prisoner can be seen through the glass of the cell; each prisoner in what looks like a sleep-like state. But this menacing bot wasn't in their state of sleep; instead, there was no signs of stasis, no large mechanical body. Only a jewel, a diamond-shaped gem in a type of some containment bubble of sorts.

The gem calmly floated in the multi-colored bubble; if looked closely, it's a bright blue color with (what appears to be) circuits and wires running inside. If one's thinking that something of this size couldn't do even the slightest bit of harm, they're sadly mistaken.

This pod's located only a mile or two away from the actual crash site as it continued to stay stood up calmly in the ground; the gem still in its bubble. But, then, the bubble bursted with a light pop; dropping the bright blue, diamond-shaped gem to the floor of the cell. It began to glow bright as the sound of shimmering and mechanical connecting is heard. A light blue mass began taking form to the sounds, growing taller and taller until it was the size of the very cell.

The light of the form quickly dimmed as a Cybertronian mech's body was now completely transformed to its physical form, with the gem now in the lower chest, upper torso area of the Cybertronian armor. The cell was too dark to see the body, only seeing its shadow, the gem, and a pair of bluish-gold optics shown. The helm of the mech looked around the cell, until he looked down at his gem as it glowed a slightly brighter blue. The same strange blue light was now shown outside the stasis cell as the front of the cell opened up, like magic.

The mech stepped out into the bright sunlight.

"Finally...," said the low voice of the strange Decepticon with a smile on his lips. "Now... where were we?"

He looked into his cell with his smile, barring the claws on his right servo.

"Oh, that's right..." he said, using the claw of his index digit to what looked like in carving in the cell's walls. Four figures were scratched into the metal: the far left being a small human-like female with long hair nearly the same length as her with some in her face. Next to that was another female that was tall and thin with extremely short hair. To the far right was a slightly taller female with square-like hair and a muscular and strong body with glasses covering her eyes. And, finally, in the center was the tallest female of them all in a layered dress with long curly hair in ringlets.

"Revenge..." the mech said, as he used all his claws on his servo to quickly scratch out the drawings. He evilly laughed as he walked away from the cell still in the ground and transformed into a strange type of car as he rode away. Expecting no one to even notice his absence.
