The Univengers

Chapter 4: The Meeting

When the team got to N.E.S.T., they each had a bunker, except for Optimus. E.T. had to have the most security because they couldn't have any civilians causing problems when they saw an alien. Optimus was in his truck form in the garage where the meeting was held. The team got to meet and know each other a few minutes before the meeting began.

"I heard you can change shape so you can walk on two legs, is that true?", Banner asked Optimus.

"Yes," said Optimus. "But I only feel the need to do it should the moment call for it." Harry squatted down to say hi to E.T.

"Hello," he spoke like he was talking to a toddler. "Hagrid never told me about you."

"I don't mean to barge in, but who's Hagrid?", asked Letty.

"Oh," chuckled Harry. "He's a teacher at Hogwarts. His subject is magical creatures."

"Huh. Well, Morshower told me that he's an alien," Letty surmised.

"He's an alien, like from outer space?", Harry said, surprised.

"Yeah," said Letty. "My name's Letty. Letty Ortiz." They shook hands.

"Harry. Harry Potter."

"Morshower hired me 'cause I was an expert racing driver," said Letty. "Albeit, an illegal one. What about you, Harry?"

"Oh, I guess he knew I was a wizard thanks to some spies, I guess. He told me that the people who stole the AllSpark knocked down the guards with magic and he thought I knew them," Harry assumed.

"Magic?", Letty stammered. Harry nodded and rummaged through his left pocket. He brought out a Galleon from Gringotts. The whole coin was gold and the heads side showed a dragon while the tails side showed a side profile of a bearded wizard. Harry put the Galleon on the floor and pulled out his wand. He pointed it at the Galleon with a swish and a flick.

"Wingardium Leviosa." Letty watched in amazement as the Galleon began to lift to her eye level.

"Engorgio," said Harry. The Galleon grew by a few inches and landed in Harry's palm.

"This week keeps getting more and more interesting," remarked Letty. She thought it was going to be so typical. A door to the right opened and everyone stopped what they were doing like how a class would stop fooling around when the teacher walks in.

"Good evening, everyone," said General Morshower. "I'm glad you're all here. Gather around." Everyone hustled forward. "We have footage of the incident that happened last Saturday." Morshower pulled up the security footage on a Sharp Aquos 40" T.V. with his clicker. Everyone was locked onto the screen as the Death Eaters took down the guards. Harry noticed someone familiar.

"Hold on, can you pause that footage?", he said. He stood up from his seat and walked to the screen. He pointed to the man with white hair. "I know him. That's Draco Malfoy. We went to Hogwarts together. We didn't get along much. During the last year, he seemed like he was hiding something. His father, Lucius, is a Death Eater. Death Eaters are followers of Lord Voldemort, the man who...killed my parents and tried to kill me as a baby. I've had a few encounters with him. The last time I saw him was three years ago. He fought with the headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, and he's been hiding since. The point is, it's reason enough to assume Draco is now a Death Eater."

"This is insane," Banner said. "I always thought this magic stuff only existed in books."

"This is just the beginning," said Morshower. "The universe is a whole lot bigger than you think."

"Those Death Eaters seem small in number, but I doubt they would listen to negotiations," said Optimus.

"Draco was never one to listen," said Harry as he walked away from the TV.

"Does anyone else know anything about these Death Eaters and/or Malfoy?", asked Morshower. An awkward silence. "Alright, then. Now, what we know about the AllSpark is little to none. All we know is that it is the source of life for the Autobots. We've had intel that there is a location on an island called Seuss Landing that has more information on the AllSpark and it's the only place with that info." Images of Seuss Landing popped up on the screen. It looked to have no straight lines and the buildings looked incredibly wonky. "Tomorrow morning, we'll head down there with our flight vessel." No one in that room except Morshower had seen a flight vessel before. 

"Any questions?", Morshower asked. "No? Right, you all better get some shuteye." Morshower left the room. The team talked amongst themselves, wondering what was going to happen tomorrow.

"Well, Mr. Prime, you seem to be the strongest out of this group," said Banner.

"Height and abilities don't always mean strength," said Optimus. Letty came up to Harry.

"Hey, Harry. Sorry about your parents," she said solemnly. "You probably have a lot going through your mind right now. We'll find those Death Eaters."

"Thanks," said Harry. When Harry was asleep that night, he had a nightmare that Draco saw him and immediately put the killing curse on him. When he woke up, he wondered if Draco had become even crueler than he had been at Hogwarts.
