Split

Chapter 15: Divided

Ratchet's POV

I glanced back again as everyone got quiet for a moment and saw Rose and Kat charging each other.

"Fowler!" I snapped.

The retired Agent ran forward, helping Jack, Ms. Darby, Miko, Raf, and Ellah separate the two girls as they started to fight.

There was a loud boom and flash of light before everyone was thrown back. I noticed immediately that the three human Primes had disappeared.

WHAT IN THE THE ALLSPARK WERE THE THIRTEEN ORGINAL PRIMES DOING!?

Rose's POV

"WHAT IN UNICRON'S UNDERPANTS!?" Kate screamed as we all suddenly dropped down on a cool metal surface.

I looked around quickly, my jaw dropping when I spotted Team Prime and the Decepticons all staring at us in shock, the desolate landscape of Cybertron behind them.

I looked at myself. How the frag am I alive right now!?

"Rose!" Optimus shouted in warning.

I ducked, but that didn't help much because Kate tackled me from behind. I grabbed her wrists, trying to get on top as we rolled across the surface of the omega lock.

We came to a stop near the edge and I grunted, surprised that Kate was still on top. She grabbed my face and pushed it back, cranning it over the edge.

For a moment, I got an upside-down glimpse of the bots, who were all fiercely battling to get to us first.

Ellah grabbed Kate and pulled her off of me. I jumped up.

"Back off, Ellah!" Kate snarled, attacking her.

Ellah flipped her onto her back, "Stay down."

She pulled out her computer and started typing, sending me a quickly glance.

"Season 3" were her only words before a groundbridge opened beneath her.

Kate and I stared at each other for a moment before a shadow loomed over us. Megatron's sword began to fly at me and I screamed. There was a flash of blue and red as Optimus slammed into him, throwing him to the side.

He had to destroy the Omega lock, but I was standing on it.

I ran back to the edge, but Kate tackled me from behind. Both of us fell, tumbling over the side. I gritted my teeth as I hit the floor, Kate on top.

"You aren't going anywhere. This Omega lock is going to fix Cybertron if I have to kill myself to keep you where Optimus can't break it." She snarled.

"And you're going to let him cyberform the Earth too!?" I demanded.

She rolled her eyes, "Do you take me as a fool?"

"Yes!"

There was a deafening sound of screeching metal and both of us screamed as Megatron was thrown across the surface of the omega lock, landing above us.

He used his arms to prop himself up and his purple optics quickly spotted us, a sinister grin growing on his face.

"I suggest you drop that saber, Optimus. Or I'll squish your Prime." He warned, reaching down to grab us.

I shoved Kate off and lunged to the side, just barely managing to escape the Warlord's hands. He lifted up Kate and snarled.

Optimus's sword was already attacking before he could regain his composure and Megatron stumbled back.

Optimus stepped in front of me, "How are you here?"

I climbed onto his hand quickly and then hopped onto his shoulder.
