Chapter 79 - Chapter 18 part 2

Soundwave glared up at Starscream who growled with anger. "Soundwave! Looks like you came as well! Well, that's too bad for you." Starscream glanced at Shockwave who said "What illogical mess is this?" Starscream turned the remote control around and a large blue button appeared on the back. He was about to press it until Optimus blasted a shot which hit Starscream. Starscream used his wings to instantly make sure he doesn't fall out of the air. He was desperate to not lose his cool as burn marks appeared on his wing. He soon pressed the blue button and immediately out of the vortex, something bright and white seemed to appear in there. Soon it started to produce large amounts of energy which was unstable for the land and things started to shake even more. Alexa began to run towards the edge as immediately the gravity seemed to flip around them and rocks started to fly upwards in the air. Starscream gave a cold smile as he began to fly towards the light and went inside of the vortex.

"What the- Why did he go there of all places!?" Sideswipe was baffled wondering what made the seeker take something risky. Megatron appeared next to Soundwave and Shockwave and he seemed to glare at them with a hard glare which made both of them back up. Why was Megatron so mad at them? And he didn't seem happy with what he just saw. Megatron turned with his optic twitching as he yelled to Shockwave and Soundwave. "You two! I'll deal with you two later." He said before jumping from the mountain to the ground. They had never really been in trouble before and for Megatron to be pissed at them, means that something serious has happened. Shockwave turned to Soundwave "Call in reinforcements. This is a top priority." He stated with no argument as Soundwave nodded and ran off as he turned his singular yellow optic to the spiral. "I assume that Starscream went in there for a reason. Yes, he is arrogant but he is not stupid." Optimus said directly as he continued with "The only way to figure out what is happening is to get into there."

"What? You mean that we have to go in the big hole?" Jazz said as Searchlight looked over the hole before turning to Optimus. "Can you call in Grimlock? He might be able to handle Megatron at least for now." Optimus looked hesitant at Searchlight's question. "Very well. He loves fighting anyways." Optimus said as Alexa looked over him "You think it might be dangerous?" Alexa asked as Optimus nodded. Alexa looked as more of the light came out of there as she had a nervous look on her own face and she wasn't so sure about this. Optimus beckoned for Ratchet, Hoist, Cliff and Bumblebee come over to him. "We are going towards down there." He said as Ratchet was about to protest considering Wheeljack was still hurt as Optimus said that Red Alert and Ferion would heal him which made him pause. They saw Megatron jumped and shot after them as they instantly jumped from the mountain and went into the vortex. Searchlight instantly called Grimlock who agreed to come and fight Megatron. Alexa looked up as she was falling as the inside of the vortex had black walls with bones attached and bits of muscle cells along with the mass of something deep. They soon landed somewhere which knocked Alexa out along with Bumblebee. Optimus, Hoist and Cliffjumper were fine while Ratchet got injured.

Meanwhile Gears scanned the area as Huffer grabbed his binoculars looking to see other Autobots getting involved in trying to defeat Megatron. He put them away as he looked at Gears. "How many more Decepticons will come to fight and scarp themselves?" Huffer asked as Gears glanced towards the side "I assume it's not the end of it knowing how they are." His insult was noticed under the underlying dry tone as Gears went down and Huffer joined in as well. Grapple was trying to handle his own against Megatron but ended up getting thrown to the floor with his back hurting in pain. Soon, Grimlock jumped down as Megatron turned around and landed on the plains as Grimlock laughed and attacked with a brutal streak in his sword. Megatron soon used his fusion cannon to block the sword with his one arm. Soon, more Decepticons joined as Thundercracker flew over them. "Looks like we got a spot of trouble here." Skywrap teleported towards Prowl who shot instantly. Soon a rumbling noise was heard which made everyone turn as cracks appeared in the ground as the spiral was getting bigger and more dangerous and seemed to mock them with the striking light.

Thundercracker pulled Skywarp out of the way from getting hit with a rock. "Argh! What was that for?" Skywarp asked as "You were about to be squashed." Thundercracker replied with. "Thanks a lot." The seeker said while scoffing as Thundercracker and him flew downwards to the spiral. "Is that a vortex?" Thundercracker questioned as the vortex's gravity flipped again and all rocks fell downwards. "Looks like something is messing with its gravity." Skywarp seemed to smirk as the gravity soon made the rocks floated again. Immediately Skywarp landed on the rocks and a large beam of light came out and started to reach upwards to space. And screaming was heard from there which sent out large shockwave and electrical shocks as branches from trees flew out. Quickly, Sunstreaker jumped grabbing on a branch as Dirge also climbed up as both started to fight. Sunstreaker began to move trying to get a strike with his own gun while Dirge fought with efficiency. Red Alert knew the situation was getting drastically bad as the atmosphere became clear to dark in a few moments.
