Let's Roll Out, Mate! [BOOK 1]

CHAPTER 53: DEEP SEA=DEEP TROUBLE

On the Nemesis......

"That damn Autobot!" Megatron roared and punched his fist into a target in the training room, smashing it into a hundred pieces. While he was proud of his small victory in destroying the legendary Star Sabre, he was still upset over the fact that his arch-nemesis, Optimus was still alive.

"If it weren't for his meddling, I'd have Optimus's spark by now." He hissed. Then he took a deep breath and ex-vented. He couldn't let his anger cloud his judgement.

But still, Smokescreen was beginning to become a thorn in his side like Bumblebee. The two were the youngest among Team Prime, yet they were beginning to become the most bothersome too.

He took a deep breath and ex-vented. He could not let his anger cloud his thinking. 'What would hurt the Autobots more than any assault?' he asked himself.

Then he remembered the time he had injured Bumblebee's human partner and sent him to near-death. He still remembers the pure rage and hate the scout had directed at him for hurting his friend.

Megatron chuckled darkly. 'If I can't hurt the Autobots, I'll just have to make do with their precious human allies....and their families.'

"Sir! We've detected a large energon signal!" one vehicon called.

"Where?" Megatron asked gruffly.

"In the Atlantic ocean, sir." He said.

"How is this information relevant when we already have an energon mine secured there?" Megatron asked.

"It's nearby and it's bigger compared to the other, my liege." He said and showed him the radius of the energon signal.

Megatron then remembers that Soundwave was there and he required his help.

"Very well, prepare the troops and set course for the Atlantic Ocean." He ordered. As soon as the vehicon left, Megatron contacted his communication specialist.

Soundwave's visor covered faceplate appeared on the screen, albeit the lighting was a bit....off seeing as to how he was underwater.

"Soundwave, you are aware of the identities of Team Prime human allies." It was a statement not a question but Soundwave nodded in confirmation nonetheless.

"Gather as much intel as you can on them and their families, both close and distant and send them to me when you are done." Megatron ordered.

Soundwave nodded and ended the call.

Meanwhile back at the Autobot's base......

"Score!" Evelyn said as her avatar executed a devastating combo move on Miko's avatar. They were currently having a video game tournament. After some debate, they chose to play Mortal Kombat.

"No fair! That's cuz you know how to actually fight in real life!" Miko protested.

"Sore loser much~" Evelyn taunted and stuck her tongue out at her. "One more point for Eve."

"Okay, hotshot, move aside, it's my turn." Jack said.

Evelyn pouted but handed over the controller anyway. "You're up Raf." Miko said passing the controller to Raf.

It's been four days since 'Smokescreen's Fake Death' as Miko has dubbed it and four days since.......Optimus loss the Star Sabre.

As Jack and Raf battled it out in video games, Evelyn once again gazed at the broken sword sadly. "Too bad we don't have the Forge, eh? That along with the sabre would've packed one helluva punch." she said.
