Chapter 18: Chapter 18 : The Battle for the AllSpark - Part 1
The darkened desert sky over the Hoover Dam exploded with flashes as a squad of Decepticons tore through the atmosphere. Leading them was Starscream, his silver and red body glinting as he descended, jets roaring. Behind him came Blackout, Brunt, Cyclonus, and an array of other Decepticons ready for battle. As they neared the dam, Starscream's voice crackled through their com-links.
"Decepticons! Lord Megatron and the AllSpark are inside! We will free our lord and seize the AllSpark for Cybertron!" His screech echoed in the air, boosting the morale of his comrades.
A chorus of cheers resounded from the Decepticons as they unleashed a relentless assault. Missiles slammed into the dam's infrastructure, concrete chunks flying. Below, Sector 7's defenses activated, but the guards and scientists had barely enough time to comprehend the imminent threat.
Inside the hidden Sector 7 base, the sudden tremors jolted everyone. Optimus Prime, standing tall amidst the humans and his fellow Autobots, felt the vibrations resonate within his metal frame. His optics glowed as he turned to Agent Simmons, Banachek, Sergeant Lennox, and the assembled military and civilians around him.
"The Decepticons are here," he announced gravely. "We cannot let them take the AllSpark." His powerful voice reverberated through the hall.
Banachek and Simmons exchanged tense glances. Lennox, a battle-hardened soldier, clenched his jaw, his gaze darting to his men. Optimus turned to the Autobots around him, his gaze intense.
"Autobots, we must protect the AllSpark and the humans. We cannot allow it to fall into Decepticon hands," he commanded. Each Autobot nodded in understanding, their determination evident in their stances.
Then Optimus leaned down toward Sam, who clutched the AllSpark tightly, the weight of its significance pressing down on him. "Sam, i have an important task for you. Protect the AllSpark with everything you have. Bumblebee, stay by his side."
Sam nodded, trying to hide the happiness that prickled in his chest as Optimus gave him the all spark and led the Autobots outside.The AllSpark in his hands was thrumming, almost alive. The moment his fingers closed around it, a surge of energy jolted through him. Knowledge of Cybertron's history, language, and conflict poured into his mind. The AllSpark was more than a relic – it was a living entity, and Sam's idea about the Allspark being more than it was shown in the movies was right .
As the knowledge settled within him, a firm hand on his shoulder shook him from his trance.
"Sam!" Mikaela's voice broke through. "What's the plan?"
He looked up, blinking, then took in Mikaela, his parents, and Bumblebee standing protectively close. His heart pounded, but he straightened and squared his shoulders.
"We need to get out of here," Sam said, his voice steady. "It's not safe anymore. We need to protect the AllSpark and get it far from here."
Lennox, catching Sam's determination, nodded. "the kid is right. We need to regroup and move. Optimus and the Autobots will keep the Decepticons occupied, while we to protect the AllSpark and leave the area ." He turned to Simmons and Banachek, urgency in his tone. "Where's the armory? We'll need weapons."
Simmons and Banachek shared a look, then Banachek said, "Follow us. We'll take you to the armory."
As they began moving, Sam discreetly tapped the small communicator in his ear. "Alfred, are you ready with the suits?"
"Yes, Master Sam," Alfred's voice replied. "Shall I send all the suits?"
Sam considered it, then nodded. "Send the suits until Mark 25. We'll need every bit of support."
"Very well, sir. ETA five minutes," Alfred confirmed.
Across the facility, in a large containment chamber, cracks began to spread through the thick ice encasing Megatron. The damaged generators, blasted by Starscream's assault, were causing the temperature to rise. An ominous hum filled the room as the ice melted away. With a blinding red flash, Megatron's eyes shot open, and a deep, electronic growl escaped his massive frame.
Outside, the Autobots had positioned themselves along the dam, taking cover as Decepticons rained down fire. Optimus Prime led the charge, standing tall and unwavering. With a mighty roar, he called out, "Autobots, hold your ground!"
Starscream and Cyclonus maneuvered through the smoke-filled air, launching missiles as they taunted the Autobots below.
"You'll never stop us, Prime!" Starscream sneered, his voice a mixture of arrogance and hatred. "The AllSpark will be ours, and with it, the conquest of of this world shall begin , this is for Cybertron!"
Optimus responded with a calculated blast from his ion cannon, forcing Starscream to veer off, snarling in frustration.
Back inside, Simmons led Sam, Mikaela, Bumblebee, Lennox, and the rest down a labyrinth of corridors until they reached a secure room lined with weapon racks. Lennox quickly began distributing firearms to his team while Bumblebee scanned for incoming threats.
"Simmons," Sam said, pulling the AllSpark closer, "how far is the exit from here ?"
"its very close enough just through a couple of doors ," Simmons replied dryly, glancing nervously as the sounds of explosions reverberated closer. "But we need to hurry because i dont think the base can to withstand an army of Decepticons attacking it ."
As the group moved towards an exit, Sam felt the AllSpark pulse in his hands. Its strange energy surged again, almost communicating with him. He paused, his brow furrowing, as images of Cybertron flashed before him, and he felt an urgent warning from the AllSpark.
"What is it, Sam?" Mikaela asked, noticing his hesitation.
Sam looked at her, his face serious. "It's nothing . We have to keep moving."
Lennox, overhearing, clenched his jaw and nodded. "Understood. Let's keep moving. Simmons, Banachek you'd better have an escape route planned."
Simmons nodded, his usual sarcasm replaced with a rare sincerity. "It's ready. Just follow me, and stay close."
Outside, Optimus and the Autobots were locked in intense combat. Blackout loomed ahead, his rotor blades whirring menacingly as he unleashed a wave of firepower towards Ironhide, who retaliated with a blast of his own, narrowly missing Blackout's midsection.
"Optimus," Ironhide called over the comms, "we can't keep them at bay for much longer. There are too many of them!"
Optimus's voice came through, calm yet firm. "Hold your positions. Protect Sector 7 and keep the Decepticons away from the humans we will fallback soon ."
Meanwhile, Starscream had slipped inside the facility, using his missiles to shatter the generator systems. Sparks and smoke filled the control room, and with one final shot, the containment cell holding Megatron lost power entirely.
The ice around Megatron continued to crack, large chunks falling away. The hulking Decepticon leader's systems powered up, and he bared his metal fangs, sensing freedom was near.
The echoes of explosions reverberated through the crumbling Sector 7 base as Sam, clutching the AllSpark, hurried alongside Mikaela and the others. Lennox and his team kept their weapons ready, eyes darting around as the tremors grew stronger and the walls shook from the Decepticons' relentless attack.
Simmons led them through a maze of corridors, urging everyone to stay close. "Just up ahead! The emergency exit should be around the corner. We're almost out!"
As they reached the exit, Simmons quickly input a code, and the heavy metal doors creaked open to reveal a dark, narrow tunnel leading out of the base. Lennox motioned for everyone to go through quickly. "Alright, everyone, move! We don't have much time."
Sam entered the tunnel first, Bumblebee guiding him while Mikaela followed close behind. Lennox and his team ushered Sam's parents, Simmons, Banachek, and Keller through, bringing up the rear as they hustled toward the opening on the other side of the tunnel. Sam took a deep breath, trying to stay calm amid the tension hanging in the air.
The group finally emerged from the tunnel, stepping out into the open desert night. Ahead of them, a row of vehicles waited SUVs prepared for the escape. Sam and Mikaela climbed into the now transformed Bumblebee, his engine already revving in anticipation. Sam's parents, along with Lennox, Simmons, Banachek, and Keller, piled into the SUVs, buckling in as they felt the urgency in the air.
"Alright, let's move!" Lennox shouted, signaling for the convoy to head out.
The vehicles tore away from the hidden exit, kicking up dust as they raced into the desert. Bumblebee took the lead, carrying Sam and Mikaela, with the SUVs close behind. Sam, still holding the AllSpark, could feel its energy surging more powerfully than before. It felt as if it were alive, trying to send him a message as though it sensed a threat closing in on them.
Suddenly, a deep, rumbling noise echoed from behind. The ground shook as the walls of the Sector 7 base crumbled, giving way to a massive figure emerging from the wreckage. A shadow loomed over the convoy, and Sam felt his blood run cold as he turned to look.
A massive alien jet streaked into the sky, arcing through the air before transforming mid-flight. The jet's parts shifted and rearranged, folding and unfolding until a colossal metallic being touched down with a thundering impact. The dust settled, revealing the menacing form of Megatron, his red optics glowing as he stared down at the convoy.
The humans in the SUVs gasped in shock, the terror palpable as Megatron took a menacing step forward. His towering frame was intimidating, his voice a low growl as he focused on Sam, the AllSpark clutched protectively in his hands.
"Give me the AllSpark," Megatron demanded, his voice cold and filled with malice.
The group froze, staring in horror as Megatron advanced, his booming voice echoing through the facility. "Perish or give me the allspark ?" he demanded, his tone laced with lethal intent.
Optimus's voice crackled over the com-link, filled with determination. "Sam we are on our way but you need to , keep moving. Do not let Megatron near the AllSpark."
Sam's eyes hardened. "Got it, Optimus."
Gripping the AllSpark tighter, he nodded to Bumblebee. "Let's go."
As the group made a break on the the desert road , Lennox took one last look back, his face set in a grim line. "We're not done yet," he muttered to himself.
With a final explosion echoing behind them, they drove towards their only hope of escape, as the battle for the AllSpark raged on.
