Transformers RID; New Beginnings

Freedom Fighters

(A/N Sorry about the delay because I got sick and had a fever, not to mention my mother scolded me for staying up late for trying to finish it. Therefore she confiscated my laptop and forbid me to used it for like a week until I recover. Anyway, the moment your waiting for.....the final chapter)

Surrounded by High Council troopers, the Bee Team attempts to convince them that they're being mind controlled but it was no use.

"The High Council's turned you all into... into...." Sideswipe said

"Zombies! You guys know about zombies? Russell showed 'em to me in a movie. Brains... brains...." Grimlock said, trying to look silly.

"I said don't move!" The trooper said, powering up the weapon.

Grimlock froze. "Not moving."

Nova facepalmed at his idiocy until a familiar minicon showed up.

"Stand down! I'll take custody of these perps."

They all gasp quietly. Bee said, "You?"

"Detective Dropforge, sir!" Strongarm said before Dropforge stopped her, pointing his baton.

"One more step and you're dented, leadhead." Dropforge said as Bee team, Steeljaw and Nova were cuffed.

They were puzzled over the fact they previously broke the mind control over their new captor as they were taken somewhere. While the troopers out of site, Dropforge scanned the area to see the coast is clear.

Dropforged chuckled, dropping his stoic look, "Looks like my bunco game on those stiffs fooled you, huh, Scoot?"

Which surprises them before they were guided to a different path.

"Good act, Detective Dropforge. Quite performance. Almost fooled everyone, huh?" Nova stated.

"Indeed. We've pretended to be brainwashed since we got back to Cybertron, trying to get the lowdown on what's really going on here." Dropforge then turned to Steeljaw. "Since when do you ride with them?"

"I want the High Council brought down as badly as they do." Steeljaw answered.

"We need Steeljaw to get past the High Council chambers' defenses. What's the story on these glorious leaders, anyway?" Bee questioned

"No one ever heard of these bums before they ran for Council. It's like they showed up outta nowhere." Dropforge explained.

Nova hummed in thought, 'Out of nowhere? More like they just manipulate the situation and brainwashing them.'

They reach the High Council Tower where Dropforge frees them.

"I can feel the subsonics." Sideswipe stated, feeling the wave in his helm

"We'll say you escaped, and try to keep the heat off of you." Dropforge said before turning to Strongarm. "I know you'll do me proud, Scoot."

"Thank you, sir." Strongarm said with a salute as they watch Dropforge and his enforcers left the area.

"Okay, Steeljaw, time for you to...." Bee said until they looked shock to see Steeljaw was gone. But he wasn't the only one missing, Nova was not in present.

"He's gone! So is Nova!! He must have took her!!! And wherever he went I'll bet it isn't good for us."

"Not exactly, Grimlock."

They turned to see Nova with a secret passageway, along side with Steeljaw.

"Did you think I'd abandoned you? I didn't come this far to sit on the sideline." Steeljaw stated.
