Predacon Outcast

Chapter 44.

We followed Grimlock and Swoop through the tower looking for Slug and Snarl, they can't be too far now. I could smell Slug just up ahead, we're coming Slug!! I was excited to see him again as we came upon another holding cell, this one having a hologram of a 3 horned creature on the screen. These don't look anything like I've ever seen, and they're NOT Predacons.

Grim walked up to the doors and pried them open with his strength, throwing the doors aside. When we saw the cell, Slug wasn't there. But the room itself was completely destroyed inside. The big restraints were shattered, things were sparking, huge claw marks, and a giant hole in the floor. Holy scrap, Slug was not a happy Autobot if he caused all this damage.

"Whoa...Grim, you think Slug did this?" Swoop asks.

"If it wasn't him, I'd be surprised." Grimlock says.

Elita and Xeno looked around at the destruction.

"Honestly, if you lot were in Kaon 15 years ago, you would've annihilated Bruticus. Hell you could slaughter his ass right now if he were here." Xeno said.

Swoop walked towards the hole in the floor.

"Ah well. You did good on your own, didn't you?" He said.

"Nearly got crushed, but yeah I'd say so." She replied.

Man, I wish I could've seen that. I flew towards the hole in the ground and looked down into it, my ears drooping and optics widening. Holy moly, this goes DEEP. REALLY deep! I took a few sniffs and caught Slugs scent, he's that way alright!

"Whoa...This goes deep, but I can smell Slug!" I say.

"Good work, little bun." Grimlock tapped my head.

I smiled as he and Swoop jumped down into the hole, I went next while Elita and Xeno followed us in. We land in a large puddle of liquid at the bottom, and there were lots of these strange looking eggs everywhere. Are these...insecticon eggs? Queen Xeno said something about hives and bees and eggs, is this what she meant? Maybe.

All of us had to walk through the gross liquid and around the eggs, I was disgusted and I think the others were too. Well, us Cybertronians. The xenomorph was just casually walking through the stuff, humming to herself. Seriously, she might be cool and tough but how can she stand this stuff??? I can feel it getting in between my leg gears! I shuddered at the icky feeling. Please let this be over soon.

Luckily it was. We entered a large room that looked really...weird. I dunno how else to describe it. I heard cackling and whipped towards it, seeing one of the Insecticons that was with me and Shockwave standing on a pillar  in the center of the room.

"Oh look, Grimlock brought us guests guests guests!" The bug said.

He talks funny.

"KICKBACK." Grim growled.

Sharpshot and Kickback, that's 2 of them. Who's the last one?

"Let's see how you deal with us us us!" Kickback laughed.

Suddenly, a giant insecticon with pincers burst out and crawled up through the floor. I yelped in terror and hugged Elita, that was one of the bugs I saw in the tunnel with the others. Grimlock clenched his fists as the bug charged him, grabbing the giant pincers and he was struggling to hold it back. The Insecticon lifted it's head and threw Grimlock back, he was almost thrown into us as he hit a wall behind us. I looked towards him as he was getting back up, roaring in anger and his body started glowing orange. My ears perked, is he okay?!

"Grimlock?" Elita asks.

Grimlock slammed his fists down onto the floor and suddenly transformed into a giant beast. He has tiny arms, a large head with big teeth, a long sturdy tail, and claws. I gasped with a smile.
