\u201cNow, where\u2019s that knock-off of you?\u201d a blue Hedgehog said to a Black Widow Spider as they patrolled a rocky shore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHer Spark signature said she was here somewhere,\u201d muttered the Spider. \u201cStill, I would think Teletraan\u2019s new sensors were more tuned than his previous ones.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe\u2019s still getting used to them.\u201d That was when the Hedgehog, Optimus Prime, felt something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026Prime?\u201d asked the Spider, Blackarachnia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSomething\u2019s scuttling near us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCrystal Widow?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt has to be!\u201d The two stopped talking and dashed back to their real selves in their alt-modes. They looked around and then heard laughter, similar to Blackarachnia\u2019s but more twisted. They then found Crystal Widow in her robot mode and pointing a gun at their alt-modes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWell, well, well, well!\u201d laughed the anti-Blackarachnia. \u201cLet me get a look at the happy couple! How\u2019s your date going?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cGoing fine, thank you,\u201d replied Optimus. \u201cHow\u2019s Unicron taking the news that he\u2019s down five generals?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBelieve it or not, taking it rather well. Let me guess, you\u2019ve got the legendary Star Saber with you?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBingo,\u201d replied Blackarachnia. \u201cIt\u2019s thirsty for you and Nemesis Prime\u2019s heads.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAw, poor little butter knife, gonna have to be thirsty forever.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know, you\u2019re giving us a real good opportunity to slake its thirst,\u201d observed Optimus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have a gun to you guys!\u201d As Crystal Widow laughed, she leveled her gun at Optimus\u2019 vehicle mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cExactly. A <\/em>gun.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnd there\u2019s another thing,\u201d mused Blackarachnia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat\u2019s that?\u201d asked her doppelganger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIf you were smart\u2026you would have put a mode lock on both of us the instant you found us!\u201d The two Autobots then transformed and kicked her away. Crystal Widow then recovered and pulled out what looked like a Cyber Key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTHAT\u2019S IT!\u201d she declared. She flicked it into the air and then sent a stream of energy into it. \u201cFORCE CHIP IGNITION!\u201d The device inserted itself into her back and the piping on her upper arms rotated to face her opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOh, that is just precious!\u201d chuckled Blackarachnia. She and Optimus then twirled out of the way as Crystal Widow fired. She continued blasting until her Force Chip was spent. Once she finished, she admired the dust cloud\u2026for a moment until Blackarachnia spoke. \u201cYou call that a Spider Gatling? Dear Primus, girl, get it together!\u201d Blackarachnia then charged out of the dust could and swung a punch into Crystal Widow\u2019s face. Crystal Widow stepped back to try and regain her vision. Blackarachnia then drove her knee into her opponent\u2019s abdomen, causing her to gasp. \u201cYou know, if you ACTUALLY did some training, I might be a little worried.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cForgetting Chun-Nan, are we?!\u201d gasped Crystal Widow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNeither of us won that day, remember? I still remember wasting you on that mountainside. You\u2019re nothing but a pale imitation of me.\u201d Blackarachnia then raked her talons across Crystal Widow\u2019s face\u2026then Crystal Widow whipped out the Dark Saber and slashed across Blackarachnia\u2019s torso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cELITA!\u201d called Optimus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDid you really think Nemesis Prime wouldn\u2019t take precautions with me?!\u201d giggled Crystal Widow as Blackarachnia covered her wound. \u201cHe was really insistent on bringing this thing and training me to use it!\u201d She raised the Dark Saber over her head, but her downward swing was blocked by another sword! Optimus then shoved Crystal Widow back and leveled the Star Saber at her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThat was your last error!\u201d he growled. The two then dueled, their swords trying to score a blow on the opponent. The blades then glowed, the Star Saber in blue and the Dark Saber in purple. As the blades locked, the resulting energies mixed, creating a massive clash of order and chaos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAt last, we take our rightful places, Optimus! As GODS! Wielding the power of the cosmos!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI am but a soldier, Crystal Widow! And you and your cohorts and master\u2026are prisoners of your own twisted delusions!\u201d Optimus decked Crystal Widow, then ran the Star Saber through her Spark Chamber. Crystal Widow gasped, then looked down at the blade going through her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Bu\u2026but I\u2026\u201d She didn\u2019t finish her sentence as she went limp and faded to gunmetal gray. Optimus then took the Star Saber out and sheathed it as he ran to Blackarachnia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI\u2019ll be all right,\u201d she grunted. \u201cIt\u2019s really not as bad as it looks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt\u2019s still enough for Ratchet to fix you up!\u201d declared Optimus as he called the base. \u201cTeletraan, bridge us directly to the Repair Bay!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOn it!\u201d replied Teletraan. The Ground Bridge appeared for them, and Optimus picked up Blackarachnia before running through the portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSIX TERRORCONS DOWN!\u201d Nemesis Prime shouted at Unicron. \u201cWE\u2019RE LOSING THIS WAR! WE HAVE TO CALL OFF THE GAMES!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe will do no such thing!\u201d snarled Unicron. \u201cThis is the classic Transformer playbook. This little bit of assassination is just the beginning. The more power we gain, the more others will seek to challenge us. When the games are done, I will resurrect the slain Terrorcons.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThen we\u2019ll kill every single Transformer!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNo, Optimus must be made an example of, or others will rise to take his place.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThen we\u2019ll kill THEM as well!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNemesis Prime, answer your old master this: why kill countless challengers when you can stop it all by breaking the greatest?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBecause we\u2019re trying to win a war, not play politics!\u201d Nemesis then stormed off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWith the Transformers,\u201d Unicron called to him, \u201cwar and politics are one and the same.\u201d As the doors shut, Unicron sat on his throne. He then thought about what he wanted in the more immediate future, then picked up the phone and dialed a number. He heard ringing. \u201cA nice pizza should do me some good,\u201d he mused to himself. Someone then picked up. \u201c\u2026Yeah, sure, I can hold,\u201d Unicron said in response to the recipient\u2019s request. He waited for a few seconds, then someone else took the call over. \u201cYes, I\u2019d like to place an order for delivery. \u2026Unicron. \u2026Come on, it\u2019s been\u2026yes, that\u2019s me! I\u2019d like the usual large. \u2026You guys offer stuffed crust now?! I\u2019ll take that! \u2026Yeah, add some breadsticks to that and a 2 liter. \u2026Chaos Cola, I\u2019ve got a sponsorship with them. \u202630 minutes or it\u2019s free? SPLENDID!\u201d He cackled as he hung up. Just then, the doorbell rang. He made his way to the front door and opened it to see the delivery girl from the pizzeria. \u201c\u2026That\u2019s impressive speed.\u201d He handed her the cash, with a sizeable tip, and then headed back inside to eat his food.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cNow, where\u2019s that knock-off of you?\u201d a blue Hedgehog said to a Black Widow Spider as they patrolled a rocky shore. \u201cHer Spark signature said she was here somewhere,\u201d muttered the Spider. \u201cStill, I would think Teletraan\u2019s new sensors were more tuned than his previous ones.\u201d \u201cHe\u2019s still getting used to them.\u201d That was when […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1058,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[98,666],"tags":[146,337],"class_list":["post-4130","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-transformers-mobian-chronicles","category-transformers-mobian-chronicles-arc-16-the-unicron-games","tag-sonic","tag-transformers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4130","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4130"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4130\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4131,"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4130\/revisions\/4131"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1058"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4130"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4130"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samueljvinton.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4130"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
