Iestyn's P.O.V.

The two of us activated our tablets and a white flash of light surrounded us. All six of the Transformers factions cicrlcd our feet as the white light glowed brighter and brighter and transported the two of us to the colour dimension. 

Ben & Iestyn: Game card set!

We both fired in our first game cards into the battlefield, they glowed and grew larger in size.

Ben: Predacons! Terrorize!

Ben fired his first card into the battlefield landing on his game card. The photo on the card was a blue, grey, and purple metallic mantaray. 

Ben: Depth Charge! Transform!

The card glowed and the mantaray flew out of the card and transformed into his robot mode. I'll admit it, I was shaking right now. I didn't want to battle Ben. I didn't want Chaos Bringer to break out.

Ben: Okay, now it's your turn. I hope you haven't forgotten how to play. 

Iestyn: Bring it. Minicons! Combine!

I fired my first card into the battlefield landing on my game card. The photo on the card was a white, light blue, and dark blue cassette tape.

Iestyn: Frenzy! Transform!

The card glowed and the cassette tape flew out of the card and transformed into its robot mode. With the two Transformers on two different cards, there's no way they can battle each other.

Ben: See? That wasn't so hard now was it? Now it's my turn. Autobots! Roll out!

Ben fired his second card into the battlefield, landing on my game card. The photo on the card was a blue and orange cybertronian van.

Ben: Dion! Transform!

The card glowed and the truck drove out of the card and transformed into his robot mode.

Tablet: Both Autobot Dion and Minicon Frenzy stable at 3400 attack points.

Ben: So, which one now?

I clutched the tablet in my hand, shaking it. If Ben wants me to play this game so badly, then he's going to get his wish.

Iestyn: Game card open! Peace Maker!

The game card opened and a white flash of light ignited from the floor. The two transformers glowed into their card forms and returned to me and Ben.

Ben: Interesting move. Your game card Peace Maker sent my Autobot back to me. So what? Does this mean you're surrendering already?

I caught Frenzy's card in my hand and looked down at it, old memories flashing in my eyes.

Ben: So what's your story?

Iestyn: I--I don't want to do this. No!

More images of Chaos Bringer flashed in my mind. It was painful to see. I placed a hand on my head, slamming my teeth together as the pain of the memory coursed through my mind.

Ben: Well, well, well, I guess then I'll have to teach you to battle again. And this time you're going to lose, Chaos Bringer!

I let out an angry growl as I aimed my tablet at the battlefield.

Iestyn: Game card set!

I fired my second game card into the battlefield, taking the spot where my first game card was located.

Iestyn: Dinobots! Roar!

I fired my second card into the battlefield. On the card was a photo of a metallic brontosaurus.

Iestyn: Sludge! Transform!

The card glowed and the Dinobot came charging out of the card and transformed into his robot mode. Ben fired Dion back into the battlefield, landing on my game card. The card glowed and Dion drove out of the card and transformed into his robot mode.

Tablet: Autobot Dion attack level 3400. Dinobot Sludge attack level 3100.

Iestyn: I thought Ben's strength was his Insecticon faction. For some reason he's just using Autobots and Predacons. I can't figure it out.

Ben gave Dion a signal and the Autobot charged forward at Sludge. The two of them locked fists with each other and each of them tried to push each other back.

Iestyn: Uh oh! Game card open! Retreat!

The game card activated and a blue light flashed out of the card. The two transformers were forced to glow and turn back into their card forms and returned to their partners. It also caused Depth Charge to return to Ben and my game card disappeared. Ben's transformers partner Ransack, appeared as her holoform, standing on Ben's shoulder.

Ransack: When a player calls for a Retreat, all Transformers must leave the battlefield and the round is immediately over. But why is she stalling? Humans are so confusing.

I looked down at the Dinobot card in my hand. I can't keep fighting. The more I battle, the greater chance of Chaos Bringer breaking out and hurting everyone. Small tears formed in my eyes as I clutched the card in my hand.

Ben: Either your in or out Iestyn. What's it going to be? There is no other way out of this Iestyn. Either you battle or you forfeit, do you understand?!

Iestyn: Then count me in!

I fired my last game card into the battlefield, landing in the same spot where my two previous game cards were placed. I fired Frenzy back into the battlefield, landing on my game card. Ben followed behind my firing in his second game card, landing next to mine. He then fired Dion back into the battlefield again, landing on my game card with Frenzy.

Tablet: New battle detected. Both attack levels stable.

Ben: Ability card activate, coloration between Autobots and Minicons!  

Dion became covered with a bright red light as power from Frenzy was sucked out of him and drawn over to the Autobot.

Tablet: Autobot Dion attack level increased to 4400.

Iestyn: Where did you get so much power?!

Ben: Hey if you're still good at this game, you would have realized that I could do so with the right combination.

Dion brought out an energon staff and charged straight for Frenzy. Dion swung it at the Minicon but he just barely missed it by jumping out of its way.

Iestyn: Game card open! Stasis Lock!

With a quick flash of white light, the two Transformers were stuck in their current positions. Frozen solid in a stasis lock. The two transformers glowed into their card forms and returned to me and Ben.

Ben: Not again! Instead of using cheap moves like your Stasis Lock, why not just throw in the towel? You are starting to drive me crazy. It's time to teach you a lesson.

Iestyn: Dinobots! Roar!

I fired Sludge back into the battlefield, this time landing on Ben's game card instead.

Ransack: Please Ben put me in! I want to participate in this battle!

Ben: No, not yet Ransack.

Ransack: I beg of you! I will get your revenge, you must have faith in me!

Ben: Well, alright.

Ben fired in his third game card into the battlefield, landing in front of his first game card.

Ben: Insecticons! Mobilize!

Ben fired in his final transformers card into the battlefield. The photo on the card was a light brown and grey metallic cockroach.

Ben: Ransack! Transform!

The card glowed and the cockroach flew out of the card and transformed into its robot mode.

Iestyn:Okay, now that he's thrown down his Insecticon card, the real battle begins.

Ben: Game card open!

The game card activated and it transformed the battlefield into an underground tunnel. The ground below and the walls and ceiling around us were covered with holes.

Ransack: It is time to repay my master for what you did to him Chaos Bringer. Prepare to fight!

Iestyn: Is this all about revenge? Ability card activate! Reverse Blow!

Just before Ransack could fire an attack on Sludge, I tossed the ability card straight at the Dinobot and he glowed into his card form, returning to me.

Ransack: Why you little brat! You coward!

Iestyn: Maybe she's right. Maybe I am a coward..... No! I never want to be Chaos Bringer ever again!

Ben: I have had enough. Are you going to battle or not Iestyn?!

I looked up at him, noticing the seriousness in his eyes. He was clutching his hands into fists, trying to hold in his frustration against me.

Iestyn: Minicons! Combine!

I fired Frenzy back into the battlefield, landing on Ben's second game card and away from Ransack. His card glowed and the cassette tape flew out of the card and he transformed into his robot mode.

Ben: Autobots! Roll out!

Ben fired Dion back into the battlefield, landing on his game card along with Frenzy.

Ben: Lets kick it up a notch. Game card open! Courtet Battle!

The game card opened and it transformed the battlefield into a metallic fighting arena. My transformers tablet glowed as Sludge was shot out of it and joined the battlefield with Frenzy. Ben's tablet did the same as Depth Charge join Dion.

Tablet: Autobot Dion and Predacon Depth Charge attack levels combined to 6600. Minicon Frenzy and Dinobot Sludge attack levels combined to 6500.

Ben: Finally, a real battle this time! You better not chicken out this time.

The four transformers began fighting each other, working together with their partners to fight their opponents. As they fought the floor of the battlefield began shaking.

Iestyn: What's happening? Something like this has never happened before!

Dion whacked Frenzy with his staff and sent the Minicon flying in the air, while Depth Charge fired a laser cannon at Sludge. My two transformers glowed into their card forms and returned to me in defeat.

Iestyn: Frenzy! Sludge!

Ben: At last, things start to get interesting and I win. But alas, your Transformers never even put up a fight did they? But then again, it wouldn't matter. I suppose fate is finally catching up with you.

Iestyn: That's not true!

Another image of Chaos Bringer flashed into my mind as I looked down at the screen of my tablet and saw the last card I had to use. A Decepticon card. Chaos Bringer's faction. My hand trembled as I looked down at it. If I used this type of card, then Chaos Bringer might break out for sure.

Iestyn: A--a-- Decepti--con?

I watched as a strange purple flame surrounded my tablet. I panicked and turned away from it, swinging the tablet into the air and firing the card out of the device and into the battlefield. The photo on the card was a red, green, and light yellow tank. It landed on Ben's final game card.

Iestyn: Demolisher! Transform!

The card glowed and the tank rolled out of the card and transformed into his robot mode. Ben fired Depth Charge back into the battlefield, landing on the same game card. The card glowed and the mantaray flew out of the card and transformed into his robot mode.

Ben: Game card open! Triple Battle!

The game card activated and it transformed the battlefield into a metal fighting arena again. Ben's tablet glowed as Dion was sent into the battlefield to join Depth Charge.

Tablet: Autobot Dion and Predacon Depth Charge combined attack levels 6600. Decepticon Demolisher remains stable at 3700.

Ben: Okay boys, show our guest how to play.

Each of them brought out their own weapons and aimed them at Demolisher, charging them to it's fullest content. They open fired and Demolisher took both of those hits.

Iestyn: This is it. This battle is over. Even if I was strong enough to defend myself it wouldn't help me if I won.

Ben: You better do something! If you decide to quit, then this battle is over and done with for good Iestyn.... Hm?

Iestyn: Now what?

The both of us looked up at the fight taking place between the three Transformers. Depth Charge fired another laser at Demolisher and the wave of the laser washed over the Decepticons body, inflicting tons of pain. Demolisher cried out in pain as he slammed his servos on to his head, trying to block the horrid high pitched sound of the laser away from his audio sensors.

Iestyn: What do I do? Ugh! I just can't go back to being Chaos Bringer! I could never live with myself if that happened! 

Ben: Iestyn?

Iestyn: I wish I had the answer. I know that if I change into Chaos Bringer, I could win this battle. But I promised myself that I would never do it again!

The floor beneath our feet begin to shake again, but this time it was a lot more harder, and on that note, louder.

Ben: Now what's going on?!

Ransack: I can think of only one explaination. The Earth is trembling because Cybertron and your world are on the verge of coming together!

Just as Ransack was finishing her sentence, a strange white hole appeared just over top of the battlefield. It was nearly blinding, but the hole revealed an image. It was the space bridge hole in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. There was a jet soaring over it and out from the cargo entrance jumped out five human figures. At first we thought it was army seals or something, but once we got a closer look, we couldn't belive our eyes.

Ben: I don't believe it!

Iestyn: Madalyn?!

It was Madalyn and the rest of my friends jumping our of that jet. They were all soaring down towards the space bridge portal. But why?! 

Iestyn: They are all headed for Cybertron to save the world! I--I should be there with them.

I watched as they each formed a circle and took each others hands as they soared closer and closer towards the space bridge. When it looked like they would go through the portal, the white hole closed and vanished from the battlefield. 

Iestyn: No wait! Everyone is trying to save the universe, but everyone except me. How could I be so selfish?! What was I thinking?!

I was so deep in my train of thought I completely forgot about the battle taking place. Depth Charge and Dion each fired a laser blast at Demolisher and on insinct, I tossed an ability card into the air.

Iestyn: Ability card activate! Energon Assault!

The ability card exploded into a wave of energon and it washed over Demolisher, giving him a huge energy boost as he deflected the laser attacks with his arms.

Ben: What?!

Ransack: How did Demolisher survive that attack?!

Tablet: Autobot Dion and Predacon Depth Charge attack level decreased to 4600. Decepticon Demolisher attack level increased to 4700.

Ben: I wasn't really counting on his Energon Assault ability, but do be honest I wasn't even expecting him to fight back.

Demolisher transformed his arms into machine guns and he open fired on to the two Transformers before him. One by one they glowed into their card forms and returned to Ben in defeat. Demolisher glowed into his card form and returned to me in victory. 

Ben: With Demolishers high attack level it allowed him to attack two Transformers at the same time. That's something Chaos Bringer would do. But something I'd expect from a Titan.

I fired Demolisher back into the battlefield, this time landing on Ben's game card along with Ransack. The card glowed and the tank rolled out of the card and transformed into his robot mode. The game card activated and it transformed the battlefield into a giant hive.

Tablet: Insecticon Ransack attack level 5700. Decepticon Demolisher attack level 3700.

Ransack: Silly child, you think you can defeat me in the Insecticon hive?

Iestyn: Just watch me! Ability card activate, Level Down!

I tossed the ability card and it pierced the floor of the game card. The scene around us faded and it changed back into the colour dimension while the game card faded to gun metal grey.

Iestyn: Your game card is useless now. With Ransack's attack level down, that puts us at equal strength.

Tablet: Both Ransack and Demolisher stable at 3700.

Ben: I'm not done yet. Ability card activate! Misty Fog!

Ben activated the game card and the battlefield became covered in a thick fog. There only lights that could be seen were the flashes of the Transformers red optics.

Ransack: You are not inferior to us. So I suggest you leave while you still can.

Tablet: Insecticon Ransack attack level increased to 4700.

Iestyn: This wasn't suppose to happen!

Ransack moved in for the kill, using the fog to her advantage she tackled Demolisher, and being the part insect she was, dug a hole and pulled Demolisher down into the ground with her.

Iestyn: Demolisher!

There was a flash of white light after that and the next thing I knew me and Ben were back inside his house in the dinning room. Demolishers card floated down to the floor as I got down on my knees in defeat.

Ben: That was some battle. There were times for sure when I thought I wasn't going to recover and lose.

Iestyn: You know? I tried my best. And even though I wasn't going to fight against you, why I am still disappointed that I lost?

I heard the sound of footsteps as Ben walked over towards me and extended his hand, helping me up.

Ben: That's because you're now a true Transformers Titan.

Iesty: Huh? Are you serious?

Ben: Hey I couldn't be more serious. Think about it, you didn't even bring your own Transformers partner yet you somehow managed to pull off quite the fight back there.

Ben ejected his cards from the tablet and laid them all out in a circle. An Autobot card was at the top, and the rest of the factions followed in the shape of the circle. Autobot, Mnicon, Predacon, Decepticon, Insecticon, and Dinobot.

Ben: And think about what this game means. It's like my Transformers, each faction is somehow connected to our planet. When it's either actual living things like the Dinobots, Predacons, and Insecticons, or symbols in size like the Minicons, or even traits and emotions such as honor for the Autobots and Deception and evil for the Decepticons. All of these six factions have one thing in common. They work in harmony. They make what the world should be. It all makes sense once you stand back and look at it. Everyone and everything has a purpose Iestyn.

Iestyn: I think I understand Ben.

Ben: Now, I'm sure there is somebody out there that's pretty worried about you.

Ben pressed a button on a remote and the windows opened up, lights came back on, and the table re-emerged from the floor.

Iestyn: Thank you Ben. You've been a big help.

The two of us stepped forward looking out of one of the windows and looking at the scenery of the valley and frozen lake.

Iestyn: You know for a planet that's almost on the verge of connecting to a metallic planet, it is kind of nice out.

Ben: The world is a beautiful place Iestyn. You just need to know where to look. We need to do everything in our power to protect it.

Iestyn: We all have to do our part don't we? I think it's about time that I do my part to save it. Ben, I'm going after my friends and heading to Cybertron. After all, I am a Transformers Titan.
