TFAV Quick Shot

Cue an explosion in the lower levels of the Nemesis. Megatron above did not even so much as blink because he knew one thing about the explosions whereabouts and it was with the trouble five and the ring leader Stephen. They were working up some new weapons to help with the threat of the sector 56 and the Autobots; he knew their intention was true to the con way but did they have to blow up every wing they were given for R&D? He just sighed and went back to work while Rufus ran out of the room below with his hair on fire. He screamed and ran for the fire extinguisher system and just like that a bucket of water was thrown onto him. He looked unhappy and spat out some water. The thrower of the water was Rueben who had a sly smirk on his face. Rufus punched him in the arm and went back into the room to work on the big project. What Stephen had told them was that the Sector 56 guys always come with the whole armory at their disposal, so why could the Cons not do something as grand and as planned? Stephen and his old pals were working on a new system that would house their extra weapons and ammo in case of a crisis and that they could easily get to during a battle. They also wanted to make the system like a huge gigantic tank that could decimate anything that came too close. This was their one chance at getting Megatron to allow them to stay and they would not screw it up no matter how many times they blew up their work by mistake. But time was getting him and they only had a few more weeks to get the whole thing working right; otherwise Megatron would have their heads, arms, and legs while he was at it. Rina came down with their lunches and a nice stack of cupcakes to help them stay energized on their goal. The guys said thank you and Seth glomped her as thanks. Rina and Seth were related by blood and it showed just how alike the two were in their actions and their behavior. They were both very hyper and carefree and oh so loving to everyone. There was little that could tear down their spirits. They knew however that it was necessary for them to know when they had to be serious and get their jobs done. Rina and the others wanted to help out the best they could but they understood that would have been cheating and cheating was something that Megatron did not like regardless of the old con motto that all is far in the time of war. He had to see if they were as ingenuitive as Stephen had said they were. So with that in mind they worked tirelessly into the night to fix the issue with the ignition system. The five worked on through the night into the day and it was a long arduous process.

Stephen – “Hey Broady can ya help me with this?”{He said trying to hold a box in place to tack it down with blots}
Broady – “Yeah I’ve got it.”{He held the box and Stephen worked on bolting it down}
Stephen- “You ready to unveil this when we are done?”
Broady – “Yeah I am, I am excited to show Megatron what this baby can do.”
Stephen – “Same here and I am going to be happy having you guys here, no offense to the girls but it is getting a little stuffy in here with all the estrogen.”
Broady – “I get ya and hey balance is good right?”
Stephen – “Right.”
Seth – {was working on an electric box} “I am just happy that I have some new family members.”
Stephen – “You mean Rina and Alli right?”
Seth – “Yeah, I mean it is soo fun knowing that there is someone out there who is just like me and we are like twins.”
Rufus – “You can say that twice, I mean if it weren’t for Rina’s blue hair I could not tell you two apart.”
Seth smiled up at him with a cute lil grin.
Rufus – “Anyway how’s the wiring coming Seth?”
Seth – “Ooki dooki loki.”
Rufus – {gave him a disinterested look} “So that is a yes…”
Seth eagerly nodded his head.
Rufus – {leaned to Stephen and whispered} “So tell me why we let him join the gang all those years ago?”
Stephen – “You don’t recall how neither of us managed to get him to leave or escape him?”
Rufus – “Oh yeah.”{he turned and went back to work when Megatron came into the room}

Everyone finished what they were doing in a jiff and went to Megatron and saluted. Megatron was pleased that they were acting like cons…well aside from the hyperactive Seth. Oh well thought Megatron it was not any worse than Lugnut and his hyperactive rants on how glorious he, Megatron was. He addressed them all and asked when their work would be finished and Stephen said that it would be about a week but that was not fast enough for Megatron as he wanted it done in a few days. The young men looked up in terror as they knew it would mean working at 200+ percent capacity. Stephen tired to reason with him but it was useless as Megatron's decision was unyielding. With a set of defeated sighs they went back to work knowing that every minute they spent lollygagging meant that it was less time to get the project just right. They worked and worked till they could not work anymore and the dawn of the test was now upon them. Broady put the final touch onto it by spray painting a Decepticon logo onto their machine and got it prepped for the big day.

Megatron barged in – “So is it done?”
Stephen – {saluted} “Sir! Yes sir!”
Megatron – “Good now where is it?”
Rufus – “This way sir.”{showed him behind a freestanding wall where their machine lay in wake for its maiden voyage}
Megatron – “It is very bulky.”{he said in disappointment}
Stephen – “Sir all first models are. And without a due... {he whistled}

Rueben inside the machine turned the key to the driver and it turned the gigantic hulk of a machine on. The machine looked like a circular tank with turrets all around it and ambient lights shown across the craft flickered on. The tank-like machine looked like this { [link] ] the individual parts clicked on and the computer system turned on and scanned the room and calculated.

Computer – [[Scan complete, 6 viable targets acquired, status: friendly, Megatron leader, Stephen, Rufus, Reuben, Broady, and Seth…acquiring weapons stats…done….need stock of plasma rounds for Megatron and 50 caliber rounds for Humanicon team. {it scanned the room again and found the boxes and crates it needed for a restock} found supplies. {a mechanical arm came out and grabbed the rounds it was missing and loaded them in the correct place} battle preparation complete ready to head into action as soon as possible.]]
Megatron – {gave a deep laugh} “Well well well this thing works, and here I was expecting it to explode.”
Stephen - “Not this time sir we made sure we fixed out issues.”
Megatron – “Well does this bucket of bolts move?”
Stephen – “Seth HIT IT!”
Seth maneuvered the tank like machine with swift ease as it was able to corner nimbly unlike most tanks. He managed to mach out the speed to 90 MPH in the vast workroom and Megatron was pleased.
Megatron – “Not bad not bad, it needs some work on the left turns however; it is cornering a little slower through those.
Rufus – “Probably a too tight gear.”
Megatron – {Just looked down at him} “ALRIGHT HUMANICON BRAVO TEAM LETS GET THIS THING OUT INTO A REAL WORLD SCENARIO!”
The Five – “YES SIR!”

They took the new tank like machine out into a well known Decepticon haven, Spain. They went to a very desolate area just west of the Sistema Iberico through a local TT. The five were nervous about the machine being able to handle the rough stones and the massive amount of soft dirt. With a hope and a promise they turned the machine on again and it ran smoothly as it scanned and came up with a plan to handle the terrain. It zipped around just as fast as it did in the nemesis and it was time to test its offensive capabilities. Megatron in one of his low settings on his cannon shot at the tank and it deflected the rounds with an EM shield. Megatron grabbed some boulders lying around and threw them at the tank and it took shots at the rocks and broke them up into dust. Megatron then shot up into the air to hit it from the top where the emitter was to the shield and it detected the trajectory of the round and maneuvered out of the way before it could hit. Megatron laughed with delight as thoughts of how it would be helpful to their effort to have a stock of supplies that could not be taken down with ease. The others smiled as they realized their leader was proud of their work. To honor the young men they would be allowed to become full Humanicon warriors and go into surgery. While Seth was not happy about this Rina was a little sneak and managed to sneak him in some anesthesia during the procedure. It was only from the admirable nature of the other three that stopped her from intervening on their surgeries. It was yet another few weeks for them to get fully acclimated to their new bodies and it was a long trek to get full and total use over their abilities. Stephen and the other GSG members helped the four get used to their implants and their training continued. They were coming along very well as each showed their abilities more and more with every day of hard training. Some like Broady and Sketch were wicked good at using firearms and being able to take a massive hit and keep on fighting. Others like Seth and Rina were best at attacking at a distance in swift and precise accuracy. Rufus and Reuben found friends with Karl and Vlad in how they were able to fight the fight and fight on! Megatron made sure they were ready before their first real mission could begin and it would be a massive rescue attempt that would be the ultimate test.
