The Transformers: Rise

Chapter X: Last stand of Kaon Part 1

"Its time we attack Kaon." Optimus Prime said as he walked into the war room, Skids, Arcee, Sideswipe, Hot Rod, Bumblebee, Springer, Warpath, and Cliffjumper behind him. "Hey! You're back!" Kup yelled as he laughed. Cyclonus just looked at Kup. "Yeah Kup, we're going to attack Kaon." Skids said with a smirk on his face plate. Everyone's expressions went to grim very fast, except for Cyclonus's, who mainly always had the same expression 24/7, and the ones he had walked in with. "You can't possibly be serious, Prime." Jazz said. "I mean, this is a joke, right?" Drift asked. "No. We are attacking soon." Optimus said. "Cyclonus, Brainstorm, you two know of Kaon's defenses. Fill us in." Optimus said. "Finally someone called on us to talk-" Brainstorm said before getting cut off by Cyclonus. "Kaon doesn't have many defenses other than Anti Air guns, which pretty much keeps us from getting in and out of there. Whirl, Jetfire, Brainstorm, and myself are going to fly in and take them out so the rest of you can come in." Cyclonus said. "But they're anti air guns." Trailcutter said. "Exactly. That's where you come in. You put a shield around us as we come in and we rip them to shreds. Understood?" Cyclonus said. "The rest of you will arrive via drop ship." Optimus said looking around. "Any questions?" He asked. No one said a single word.

"Hey Cyclonus!" Whirl yelled out at Cyclonus as he walked behind him in the hallway. Cyclonus turned around, only to be tackled and slammed through the floor and into the boiler room. "You dare touch me? A being from the dead universe?!" He yelled as he punched Whirl across the face plate, then kicked him off. Whirl rolled sideways and got back onto his feet. "Uh, yeah." Whirl said, a minigun popping out of his forearm. "Nightwatch." Cyclonus said as a small minicon jumped and transformed into a gun. He quickly fired it at Whirl's forearm, blowing it off. "Agh!" Whirl yelled as he grabbed his arm. Cyclonus dived toward Whirl, Whirl smacking the gun out of his hand and then grabbing the very hand that had the gun in it. "C'mon Cyclonus, what are you going to do with those fancy claws? Scratch me?" Whirl asked. Whirl then pushed his hand toward Cyclonus's face plate, starting to leave a scratch mark near his optic. "How about you scratch yourself, big boy?" Whirl asked. Cyclonus grunted, then pushed himself off. He kicked Whirl in the helm, and ripped a large pipe from the ceiling, then shoved it into Whirl's mid section. Whirl only made a small groan, struggling against it. "I'll be back for more!" Whirl yelled at Cyclonus, who was already leaving the room. 

"We've taken out the Anti Aircraft guns, Optimus." Cyclonus said. "Alright Cyclonus. We're on our way." The prime said as he looked at the Autobots at his side. "Hot Rod, you're in charge of the ship. You know what to do." Optimus said looking at Hot Rod. Hot Rod only gave a nod. He then walked to the command console, and started flying it toward Kaon. "Passengers and crew, we are looking at a crash landing. Nah, just kidding, I'm crashing this hunk of junk into the prison so I'm gonna have to ask everybody to jump out before I push you all out." Hot Rod said with a smirk, everyone on the ship listening. "Alright, you heard him. Lets go Autobots!" Optimus yelled as he opened the sliding door. He then jumped out, a few other Autobots following. The ship already started to sink to the ground, the ship already emptied. Hot Rod got out from the seat and then ran to the exit and jumped out, right before it exploded, forcing him to land next to the rest of the Autobots. Optimus Prime slung his ion blaster over his shoulder and faced the city in front of them, the Autobots getting ready to face an army. "Autobots." Optimus said as he reloaded his gun by pushing it up and down. "Transform and roll out!"
