I don't own the series The Loud House or the Transformers or any car brands, make, and models in this story. The Loud House is created by Chris Savino for Nickelodeon, Hasbro owns Transformers, and all vehicles named or described are owned by their proper companies.

Last Time: After a somewhat successful rescue of the remaining Wreckers and fellow allies, with an escape attempt, Lincoln Loud was injured and worried about what his family would say about his absence, seeing their friend and ally distress and wanting to take the next step of meeting more humans, Optimus Prime agreed to meet the Loud family, but the Insecticon leader, Scorponok, took them hostage.

Loud House: 7:10 AM

Early in the morning, the Loud family woke up one by one, the younger sisters were the first to wake up with Lily waking up first with the twins Lola and Lana, followed by the goth Lucy then finally the brainiac Lisa, it used to be a trial and hazard just to get to the bathroom before in the Loud house when there was just eleven of them but with that number almost completely halved there have been less fights. For the smartest among them, it was never an issue when she discovered their parents' secret bathroom after noticing they had a much higher water bill than normal a few years ago. Lynn Jr. still lived with them but she was out at a friend's house after winning a big game.

The Loud family did their normal thing by going downstairs to eat their breakfast, their father made pancakes for them and they all noticed something, Lincoln wasn't downstairs at all yet. Their father walked upstairs to check up on the boy and knocked on his door to call for him, there was no answer so Lynn Sr. opened the door to an empty room. They didn't panic at first, they stayed calm as much as possible thinking Lincoln was still in the house and tried to call them only to hear his phone on his nightstand, he then started to feel panicked.

He saw his wife in the hallway and informed her about Lincoln not being in his room, the two looked worried about Lincoln being missing from his room, so he dashed down the stairs and kept a calm face so the daughters wouldn't think anything was wrong and looked into the garage to see Lincoln's car was gone too. The thought of Lincoln sneaking out again sank in and they closed the door, Lisa noticed their parents were clearly distressed.

They all set out to go through their own day, the parents thought Lincoln would return home after some time and would have to call the police if he didn't show up before the end of the day. Rita dropped the kids off at school while Lynn Sr. called the other girls who moved out as they were still in town after moving back, explaining that Lincoln wasn't in the house when they woke up along with his car.

Lynn was walking back and forth thinking about calling Lincoln and for what felt like hours, he called only to be placed on voice mail. He waited for Rita to come back with the family van so they could go out and drive around town to look for his car. He then heard something, it was a knock on the back door of the house, he walked over to the door and opened it before stepping out, the moment he was out something picked him up or rather someone, the Insecticon, Shrapnel before flying off with Lynn.

Royal Woods Park: 10:25 AM

In the park, the family van with Rita, Luan, and Lynn Jr. who may have been a college student she did take mostly online classes, and any that she would have today she emailed her professors that she had a family emergency with little explanation as to what it was. They were out looking around the parking lot of the park, looking for Lincoln's car but found nothing. "Gah... where is that dumb car of his? I don't get why he left the house." Lynn Jr. said with frustration in her voice.

"Maybe he--" Luan tried to make a joke to lighten the mood only for Lynn to put a hand on her shoulder.

"Luan, you say a pun now, I will slug you in the face." Lynn Jr. said with a raised fist as she wasn't in the mood for a joke, the jokester's sister walked backward, taking the threat seriously. They then see their mother, Rita, walking back to them after checking the entire park. "Nothing?"

"I didn't see him or his friends, his school called and said he didn't show up and I explained he wasn't at home, they said to call the police if we can't find him, if he does show up for classes they'll contact us. I also can't get a hold of your father." Rita said as she put her phone away in her back pocket. "Have the others called?"

"Lori said she, Bobby, and Leni were looking around the mall while Luna and Sam were looking at his favorite stores but the call was cut, I don't know what went wrong." Lynn said as they walked back to the car and entered inside.

Before starting the car was switched on it started to shake, before anyone could say anything Vanzilla was lifted off the ground. Lynn looked out of the window to see a giant green wasp, it was Waspinator carrying them in the van. "Wazzpinator hazz humans!" Waspinator said to what she thought was himself but really was a hidden communicator to someone else.

"We're being kidnapped by a giant bee?!" Lynn said as her mother and sister looked out of the window to see Waspinator.

"Wazzpinator is a Wazzp!" Waspinator said feeling insulted by Lynn thinking he was a bee.

"Man, this guy should buzz off! Hehe, get it--" Luan said as a pun before getting a punch from Lynn. "OW!"

"LYNN JUNIOR!" Rita said with disappointment in her voice.

Royal Woods Mall: 1:20 PM

At the mall's parking garage, both the older siblings of the Loud sisters Lori and Leni along with Bobby were roaming around for Bumblebee. It wouldn't have been difficult with it being a yellow and black muscle car, but it was hard just looking for it in the first place. "Still nothing," Lori said with worry in her voice. She has been just that, worried for her brother, her parents have been talking about how Lincoln has been coming home later than usual and now recently he wasn't home in the morning. He was told to keep the car home for some time but no one knows where he was.

"Do you think Linky returned home yet?" Leni asked Lori who checked her phone to see no update from their parents or anyone else other than Luna and Sam currently looking for him.

"No one, ugh! Lincoln, where are you?" Lori said holding back all her emotions, she didn't know whether to either be angry or worried about him being missing for this long, they really wanted to call the cops to get some help but they did say to wait until later since he hadn't been gone for too long, well to law enforcement maybe but to the Loud's it felt like eternity.

"Don't worry babe, we'll keep on looking and find him soon, promise!" Bobby said as he got closer to Lori to give her a hug.

"Aww, thanks Boo boo bear," Lori said, making me want to throw up upon writing that, same thing for you viewers for reading that.

They did one more lap around the parking lot before realizing that he wasn't there. They walked back to their car to start it up to drive off however the moment they tried to back up in Lori's car, it wouldn't move. Lori lowered her window to look out to see the wheels covered in a blue webbing. "What the--" Lori said before she heard something behind them, she looked to her back to see a giant spider behind their car. "WHAT THE--"

The spider fired some webbing at the trunk and started to move around the car, walking over to other parked cars to start wrapping Lori's car around with the blue webbing. Leni watched before screaming at the top of her lungs nearly deafening Lori and Bobby. "LENI! CALM DOWN!" Lori screamed at Leni.

"HOW! IT'S LIKE A GIANT SPIDER!" Leni shouted back while she continued to scream.

Once the car was wrapped with the webbing the spider walked over to the car before raising one of her front legs and slammed it on the roof which cracked the windshield before kicking it, breaking it completely. "Stop screaming please." Said the Spider, clearly now being Blackarachnia in her Spider Insect mode. The fact that she spoke surprised the three before Leni fainted in her seat. "Geez, you humans love your drama."

Gus' Game and Grub: 2:20 PM

Luna and Sam walked out of the pizzeria and arcade shop looking disappointed due to the fact that they found nothing, they hadn't found any leads on Lincoln. They looked at anywhere Lincoln usually went to and hung out with his friends. All saying he was never there or seen him in a while. They even tried calling his friends but they were either saying they haven't seen him lately outside of school or didn't answer.

Luna looked the most upset as she and Lincoln were always close and seeing him missing was taking a toll on her with Sam noticing this. "Don't worry Loons, we'll find him."

Luna did slightly smile at her partner's caring words. "Thanks, Sam, I just hope he's alright, ever since he got that car he has been out of the house more and more."

"Maybe he just wants some time to himself, I mean growing up he spent a lot of time with you all." Sam said to Luna so she would have a little more ease about the situation.

They walked to a parking lot to a van they had been using as both a place to camp and to move some music equipment they used for their gigs, after high school they went to a good college and planned to be either music instructors or go pro while working with music. So far it was going great and close to graduation.

The moment they made it to the van before they heard a crashing sound on the other side of the van. They ran over to the opposite side of the van to see a giant dark robotic grasshopper that crashed on the ground. "Kickback, terrorize!" Said Kickback as he transformed into his robot mode and picked up both of the girls like they were toys. He then looked at their van and lightly kicked at the side, and by lightly it was enough to leave a dent, and laughed.

"OI! Not cool dude!" Luna said as Kickback leaped into the air before flying off with the two.

Royal Woods Middle School: 3:30 PM

After school, Lucy, Lana, and Lola waited for their younger sister, Lisa, for their parents to pick them up, Lucy had a free period due to a teacher getting sick last minute without a substitute to take their place so she walked over and waited at the cemetery until Lisa sent her a text that she believes their parents were hiding something. She was waiting for her siblings at their school.

She did the same to Lana and Lola who all waited for her after school where they started to discuss what was happening. They each tried to text and call their parents with no reply. That's when Lisa talked about what she believed they knew about. "Lincoln might be missing."

"WHAT?!" The others shouted in surprise.

"Yes, this morning Lincoln wasn't in his room, we didn't see him once after we woke up and our parents were most distraught without explaining why. So our brother might be missing." Lisa explained to her siblings.

The others looked disbelief by this, was their brother missing or something? Lana spoke up. "Are you sure Lisa, what if he just overslept?"

"Maybe, but our parents' current state was strange and worrying, so it was most likely that he wasn't home, none of us saw him at all." Lisa explains her suspicions.

"What about those GPS trackers you had in us... you know, the ones we knew about?!" Lola said as she pointed to the back of her ear where she had a chip implanted in them after telling them that she had it for their parents but they all discovered them after some time.

"Our parent units told me to undo them after discovering them. Before you asked, I did it while you were all asleep one by one." Lisa explained to them. They then noticed Vanzilla coming up to them, driving close by. "I say we ask them head on, we ask them what was going on. No backing down."

"Yeah, if Lincoln is missing then we want to help!" Lana exclaimed to the others with enthusiasm.

The moment Vanzilla parked in front of them and the door opened they entered inside. "Father, I wish to discuss something of the utmost... importance..." Lisa said before turning confused at the lack of their parents in the car or rather no one inside, it was empty. "What in the world?"

The moment Lola was the last one to enter the van the door closed on its own. They didn't notice no one was driving and Lisa saw a spider-like device on the steering wheel. A voice then spoke from the device. "Buckle up! It is gonna be a bumpy ride! Or don't, I don't care!" Said the voice of Tarantulas from the device as Vanzilla started to drive off like a crazed driver with the girls inside being a mix of panic and fear.

Royal Woods Elementary School: 3:45 PM

Just outside of the school's entrance, Lily Loud steps out, unlike the other Louds she knows where her brother is, she calls the Autobots with her communicator she was gifted by Wheeljack who called her about why her brother wasn't home. She was relieved to know her brother was okay but was a little worried after saying he was out cold and wanted to know when he woke up.

She didn't see her sisters, they said they would be waiting for her outside of the school but didn't see them. She didn't have a phone so she couldn't call them and tried to call Wheeljack to talk to him until she was picked up by her parents, since the imposter incident they became close like friends since she thought his inventions were cool and thought he was fun to hang out with sometimes when she said she was out having fun.

She was about to call but something came out of nowhere, a bird crashed into her arm, a pigeon was attacking her arm. She didn't like pigeons, not hate them or anything, but didn't like them since she was younger due to past events. The bird then ripped the watch off her wrist before flying off. "HEY!"

Lily ran after the bird that was flying off, she crossed the street carefully to get her watch back. After running a few blocks she was at the park when the pigeon landed on a tree. Lily made it to the bird, wondering if it was at its nest but saw nothing.

She had a closer look at the bird and saw it had something on the back of its head that looked like a microchip in the shape of a beetle. The bird dropped the communicator, being caught by a giant hand that crushed it like it was made of nothing. Lily backed up as the Insecticon Bombshell walked from behind the tree before aiming a laser pistol at her.

"Don't move, kid. Want to see your family?" Bombshell said as a threat.

Loud House: 5:05 PM

"Son of a GLITCH!" Lincoln shouts as he, Ronnie Anne, Mari, and Agent O'Neal have just finished watching the recording with anger. The Insecticons have gone too far, they had taken Lincoln's family hostage. Now he wanted Scorponok, mostly his head on a stick. He looked like he was about to go wild until Agent O'Neal placed a hand on their shoulder to stop them.

"Lincoln, I know you're angry, but if you rush out there things will get worse. Calm down. Breath in and out kid, trust me." Agent O'Neal said to Lincoln who did what he suggested to him. Lincoln took as many deep breaths as he could to try and calm down. "Alright, good. Listen kid, I get how you feel but you can't go guns blazing."

"Then what do I do then?! They kidnapped my family!" Lincoln said with his anger rising again only for O'Neal to hold his shoulders again to look him dead in the eye to give the message again. "Alright, but what else would we do, huh?"

"He has a point, the Insecticons have them hostage and they might be monitoring signals on any frequencies." Mari gave her opinion on the matter.

"Simple, they don't know how many of us are there." Agent O'Neal said with the others looking confused before continuing. "Alright, currently there are a few Autobots with us, their main target is Bumblebee but we also have Optimus, Hot Rod, Drift, Steeljaw, Rewind, Sundor, Red Alert, Sparkplug, and Over-Run. A total of ten Bots, nine of which they don't know about and they have currently seven at the most with Inferno leaving them. The others will sneak around and find your family Lincoln. They want you to go with them Lincoln, I don't want to send you but if you're not there it will raise suspicion. Mari, Ronnie Anne, you need to go home and wait--"

"What?! They have my brother too! Not just Lincoln's sisters, this involves me too!" Ronnie Anne shouts back. It was true, Bobby was among the hostage family members and she didn't just want to head home and pretend this was not happening.

"I agree, I want to help too, Lincoln shouldn't do this alone!" Mari said, giving a piece of her mind.

"They only expect Lincoln and Bee, we can't risk you, kids, too. I'll have to send a coded message to any of the Autobots and my old friends in the G.I.Joe to get back up and help. You two go home. ASAP." Agent O'Neal said as he pulled out two phones, one a standard-looking smartphone and the other a strange-looking flip phone, he handed the flip phone to Lincoln. "This is a weaponized phone, press the center button with it all the way back, and it'll curve with the antenna serving as a barrel to shoot a laser."

Lincoln took the phone, testing its capability to see it turned into almost like a pistol from a science fiction movie. "Whoa, this might help."

"Just be careful Lincoln, I really wish we could do this differently but we can't use the pretenders anymore." Agent O'Neal said as they walked outside, they did have to each tell the Autobots about the situation, each of them was doing their best to hold back their anger for the actions of the Insecticons tactics of using the Loud family as hostages. Agent O'Neal pulled out a motorcycle from Optimus' trailer that he kept on him informing the others to just go home before driving off.

"We're going right." Mari said the moment O'Neal left asking both Lincoln and Ronnie Anne, the latter giving a thumbs up with Lincoln being confused before realizing that arguing with them.

"What will you both do?" Lincoln asked.

"Simple, the Autobots will sneak around areas they can search while Ronnie Anne and I look inside of areas they can't search," Mari explains their plan.

"We must hurry then." Said Optimus while he was still in his Alt mode, Lincoln, Ronnie Anne, and Mari ran to their fellow partners to make a hast. "Autobots, Roll out!" Optimus yelled as they started to drive off, they had no time to lose.

On top of the Loud house, a small robotic black and purple rhinoceros beetle watched them go. "Scorponok, the human, and the Autobot are going to the location. Over." Said the Insecticon Bombshell as he spied on the leaving group.

"Good, are they alone?" Scorponok asked, there was a short pause from Bombshell's end before he replied.

"Yes, they are, over and out." Bombshell answered before hanging up. The moment they cut contact, they started to call someone else with the communicator they had built in them. "This is Bombshell, the plan is working perfectly."

"Good, just keep up the act and if this works as planned, you'll be back on the Nemesis." Said a voice that was distorted, keeping the caller unknown.

Royal Woods Sawmill: 6:55 PM

The abandoned sawmill was once a large area for cutting wood with a few warehouses for storing their items, it was also surrounded by a forest with several trees, it was thought that they were going to cut some of the trees but they mainly reserved trees from other locations instead to cut. Currently, the Insecticons were using it to hold the Louds hostage, each of them was clearly afraid to do anything.

The sight of the giant robotic bugs was a serious shock to them all, especially Lisa who had a long list of questions about them. They were stuck in a cage made of fences ripped out of the ground, being kept in a large warehouse, and being watched by Tarantulas and Waspinator. The Insecticon leader walked in with the other Insecticons except for Bombshell as he was spying on Lincoln and Bumblebee. "They should be here soon enough," Scorponok said as Waspinator turned to them except for Tarantulas who was just chuckling as he had some ideas.

"Afterward, we can do what we want to the humans," Tarantulas said with Waspinator turning to them surprised.

"Yes, yes, I don't care what you do with them, all I want is that annoying Autobot. If we return with their heads to Megatron he'll listen to me and then I'll sell out that traitorous Cyclonus." Scorponok said with anger and hatred in his voice.

"Why did you take us hostage?!" Yelled a confused Lori. The Insecticons turned to the humans looking either annoyed or confused by them. The other Louds were looking scared and tried to keep Lori from screaming at the Insecticons for several reasons but her sister Lynn was the only person who wasn't trying to back her down as she found something on the ground, a sharp piece of wood.

"The reason why is because you know someone who is connected to an enemy that constantly annoys me. You probably know them." Skorponok said as he turned to Blackaracnia who pulled out a disk-shaped object that showed a hologram of Bumblebee's alt mode. "You know them, correct?"

"Is that Linky's car?" Leni said confused before seeing the hologram showing the car changing into a robot. "What the what?" Leni said, confused.

"Did Lincoln's car change or something?" Lana said very confused along with the others, some thought it was fake or something but it was clear Lincoln had some connection to all of this.

Lily was trying to act shocked as she knew but wanted to keep it clear she was out of the loop, if the family knew then Lincoln would be in more trouble if they all made it out of this. The Insecticon Tarantulas chuckled at their reactions, it doesn't take a mad scientist to figure out a reaction from the humans. "Hehehe, they didn't know." Tarantulas said as he pressed a button on the side of the projecting device that showed Lincoln on Bumblebee's shoulder.

"What the-- Lincoln?! That is his car?!" Lori said in utter surprise, everyone other than Lily was shocked.

"Cool, he has a giant robot!" Lana said in total excitement. "Wait, what are you guys then?" Lana asked.

"We are the Insecticons! Warriors from a world ruled by an unfair system of hierarchy! We fought for the freedom of our people but we lost and were exiled... We will return to our home and take it over! We need to have more forces and soon we will have it." Scorponok said as if he was trying to inspire his forces only for a mix of them to show no interest.

"Yeah, all we need to do is to kill one Autobot and maybe that white-haired human too." Tarantulas said while chuckling at them getting closer to them as he laughed at them, once he got too close, Lynn Jr stabbed them in their optics but the wood was too weak to even stab through the glass of their optics. "What the frag! You little scrap! Tarantulas, Terrorize!" Tarantulas yelled in annoyance and fury before leaping into their ait turning into their spider alt mode sticking to the ceiling as he shot a string of webbing only he wasn't aiming for Lynn but for Lily, sticking them with the web before pulling them up.

"LILY!" They all screamed and tried to grab her to pull her to safety but Tarantulas had them pulled up and once she was close he changed back holding Lily in his hands before pulling out a saw blade device and turning it on.

"Do something that dumb again, I won't hurt you but this one!" Tarantulas said as a clear threat.

"We won't! We're so sorry! Just stop please!" Luna said as she was worried for her sister like everyone else was.

Before anything could be done, Bombshell flew inside at his normal size and changed back into his robot mode. "Scorponok, they have arrived." Bombshell said with Scorponok walking towards the exit, but stopped and looked back to Tarantulas.

"Tarantulas, keep that human in a different location so they don't think of escaping. Waspinator, watch these humans carefully, if they try to escape, end them all." Scorponok said coldly as he and the other Insecticons left while Waspinator looked down both to the ground and just didn't look like he was enjoying this, the opposite actually.

Elsewhere at the entrance of the sawmill was Bumblebee with Lincoln and Sparkplug inside of him. The plan was for Bumblebee to act like he was compliant to Scorponok's demands while the others snuck around, Optimus said he would stay close while Drift and Hot Rod would check around while they also had Red Alert and Over-Run helping them. Bumblebee would have Sparkplug inside of him, and some transformers, such as Bumblebee, could hold a Mini-Con inside of them in either their alt modes or their robot mode in a compartment that many bots had. Lincoln wouldn't be alone as he had Sundor, Steeljaw, and Rewind in his pocket.

The moment they got past the entrance, the three Insecticons Shrapnel, Kickback, and Bombshell came out of nowhere landing on each side of Bumblebee. "Step out of your Autobot and transform back to your robot mode. Mode." Shrapnel demand with Lincoln stepping out and Bumblebee transforming back to normal.

They then told Bumblebee to toss any weapons he had on him to the side which he did by tossing a pistol to the side and started to walk with Lincoln as they demanded them to follow. They reached an open area with a large log-cutting device in the center torn apart and reconfigured into a throne for Scorponok to sit on. A king of nothing. "Welcome, you know why you're--

"Where is my family!" Lincoln demanded to know, he was getting annoyed at Insecticons.

"Shut it human!" Scorponok yelled back. "If you want to know, ask Tarantulas here. Matter of fact, tell him what to do."

Tarantulas stepped forward to Lincoln and Bumblebee if he had a smirk it would be seen in large on his face. "Alright, you want to know humans, you'll have to find them, if you can find them in under an hour we'll let them go but I'll be watching you. If you fail to find them, I'll rip them apart. A hint as to where they are is the east side of this area." Tarantulas said to Lincoln, he had no other thing to say in the matter.

"Fine, but what about Bee?!" Lincoln said as he wanted to know what Scorponok had planned for him.

"None of your business human, you want your hive back? Then go, the time started by the way." Scorponok said to him, Lincoln wanted to talk back but Bumblebee told him to go and find his family. Lincoln didn't want to leave Bumblebee but he decided to do what he said and ran out to find his family while Tarantulas and Blackaracnia followed after him. Bee was left alone with Scorponok, Shrapnel, Bombshell, and Kickback.

"Hehe, foolish idiot Autobot, you're all alone. Alone." Shrapnel said in a snobbish mocking tone.

"Yeah, I should have got some backup before coming here, oh wait." Bumblebee said before opening his chest plate with Sparkplug coming out Powerlinx with Bee's left arm. A roaring horn blaring loudly could be heard and Optimus Prime bursting through a wall and crashing into Bombshell, followed by him transforming into his robot mode with his hands turning into blades. "I did."

"What the frag! Bombshell said you came alone!" Scorponok said in surprise at Optimus Prime's arrival.

"Guess you had bad intel from your men." Bee said as he fired toward Scorponok.

Lincoln was running around, looking for his family, looking into buildings on the east side of the sawmill to find nothing. He noticed Tarantulas watching him in their spider alt mode from afar, atop a warehouse like a creep stalker. He was worried, what if they harmed his family. As he reached a corner, Blackaracnia waited for him, out of the sight of Tarantulas.

Lincoln backed away but she kneeled down to look at them. "They lied, you know." She said confusing Lincoln. "Tarantulas, he said on the east side, but they were on the west side. He purposely gave you the wrong information." She then got up and started to walk away.

"Wait a minute! Why did you tell me that?!" Lincoln asked.

She stopped and turned her head to look over her shoulder. "I'm done, I'm leaving the Insecticons. I hope Optimus finishes the job for Scorponok." Blackaracnia said as she continued to walk away and surprising Lincoln, she knew Optimus was there? How?

He had no time to question it and ran off, he noticed that Tarantulas didn't see him run away from his view. Lincoln ran as fast and as hard as he could. Blackarachnia saw him and smiled as he ran but stopped as she heard something, the cocking sound of a weapon being aimed at her. She looked to see Hot Rod aiming his arm pipes at her. "Don't move."

"Alright, Autobot. I surrender." Blackaracna said as she dropped her weapon with her hands raised above her head. "I was just trying to get away from Scorponok, he is clearly losing it, becoming desperate."

"You still worked with him, you helped him capture the Loud family. I won't forgive you for that." Hot Rod said before noticing her face showed shame and guilt. "Do you regret your actions?"

"Yes, I am, I should have done something but all I can do is leave... but I guess I've been captured."

"You know... you should join our side." Hot Rod said with her face changing to surprise. "We could use someone with stealth skills and you could make things right by helping us, what do you say?" Hot Rod said as he walked towards her.

She smiled at him, before smirking with claws popping out of her hands and stabbing them into Hot Rod's shoulders, he felt pain mixed with a strange feeling followed by numbness. His body fell to the ground, he couldn't move. "Thanks for the offer, but I'd rather stay out of all this for a while. Also, I could see it in your optics, you're not my type, I'm into flyers." She then walks away, leaving Hot Rod feeling dumb for lowering his guard.

"Sigh... I wasn't thinking that stuff... okay maybe a little-- whatever she isn't my type anyway."

Lincoln kept it up, running and running with all his might before seeing a building with light inside of it. That had to be it, he ran towards the large doors and pushed with the strength he had, luckily they were meant to be opened like this for easy access to the inside, and saw his family in the center of the building. "YOU GUYS!" Lincoln shouted with his family seeing him.

"LINCOLN?!" Everyone shouted in surprise. Lincoln ran over only to see Waspinator, sitting on some logs. The moment the two made eye contact, Waspinator looked around and back at Lincoln, waving his hand like a greeting. Lincoln did the same with an awkward motion and expression on his face. He then continued to his family.

"Lincoln, are you alright?! Where have you been?" Rita said as she reached her hands out from the cage. Lincoln reached out and hugged her back through the cage.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Are you guys alright?!" Lincoln asked worried before noticing a missing sibling, Lily. "Where's Lily?"

"That spider guy took her! Lincoln they said they were after your car! What is going on?!" Lori asked, just like her other siblings she was questioning everything happening.

"I... okay, look I'll explain what is going on--" Lincoln tried to explain before feeling something hit him from behind and being pulled away. The others cried out his name as he was dragged outside where Tarantulas was above the door before leaping off in his robot mode. "Tarantulas?!"

"You cheater! You were meant to look on the east side!" Tarantulas said angrily. He clearly wanted Lincoln to fail.

"I cheated?! You lied! You said my family was on the east side but they were in this warehouse! You're the cheater!" Lincoln screamed at Tarantulas who looked more furious at the human. Lincoln then noticed something far behind the back of the warehouse with Mari and Ronnie Anne entering through a large hole in the back, sneaking to the cage. The family also noticed and were confused but glad to see them. He then turned back to Tarantulas who was still angry.

"That doesn't matter! I will crush you then your hive!" Tarantulas said as he aimed a crossbow-looking weapon. Lincoln looked panicked but Waspinator pulled them away from firing. "What the-- Waspinator, what are you doing?"

"Spiderbot, that is enough. Spiderbot had a deal with humans that if they found a hive they would go free." Waspinator said with Tarantulas back handing Waspinator away from him.

"Deal? There was never a deal! I was going to end them all! These foolish freaks need to perish! Now get out of my way!" Tarantulas then turned back to Lincoln but when Waspinator pulled them back to slug them a punch to the face.

"NO!" Waspinator yelled as he aimed his weapon at Tarantulas as they were down. "No, Spiderbot will not harm humans! Wazzpinator doesn't cross that line, not now or ever! White-haired human will take his family and leave! As for Spiderbot, Wazzpinator will stop you from harming them--" Waspinator tried to sound intimidating, only to be shot in the chest by Tarantulas with a projectile that exploded on contact like a missile. "AH!"

Waspinator Owned Counter: 20

"Worthless, I'll get rid of you once and for all after I am through with the humans. Until then, time to--" Tarantulas turned back to Lincoln who tossed the three Mini-cassettes of Steeljaw, Rewind, and Sundor.

The three transformed into their robot modes, Sundor flying around Tarantulas firing around their head, blinding them. Rewind used his small size to run around the Insecticon to fire around their body at any weak point they had. Stealjaw was running around, slashing at their legs and firing their shoulder-mounted cannons at them. Each of them aims at any weak point and their own area.

"Lincoln, get to your family, now!" Sundor yelled to Lincoln who nodded their head before running to his family. He saw Ronnie Anne and Mari trying to open the makeshift cage that was made to hold the Louds in place.

Lincoln pulled out the flip phone, pressed the center button which changed it to the gun mode, and fired it at the side of the cage, damaging the cage which let Ronnie Anne, and Mari rip the cage apart more easily freeing the family. "LINCOLN!" the Louds screamed as they hugged him. Lori and Bobby then realized Ronnie Anne was there too. "Wait, Niní, what are you doing here?"

"Right, me and Lincoln have a story to share..." Ronnie Anne said, looking nervous.

"Hello, bad time for introductions but I'm Mari." Mari said, greeting the Louds. She was interrupted as Rewind was sent flying over their heads and landed on the cage. "Rewind!" Mari said worried for her friend as they got back up. The Louds were confused and frightened by the robot in front of them.

"Hello there-- Watch out!" Rewind said as Sundor was sent flying to the group, the Autobot luckily caught him in time. They then noticed that Tarantulas was slamming their foot down onto Steeljaw's side.

"I have had enough of this planet! I am ending the lives of every human and organic on this worthless planet!" Tarantulas said in pure rage. He then looked at the humans, all of them in one spot, one easy target he thought. But he was stopped as shots of flames hit him. Turning to the side he saw Hot Rod with Red Alert on his shoulder, they fired flames at Tarantulas. He then noticed a car driving past Hot Rod and towards him.

The car changed into Drift who dashed past Tarantulas with his swords out, the next thing he knew, Tarantulas' hand that was holding his weapon was cut clean off, and a green fluid burst and gushed out of his severed hand. "AH!" Tarantulas screamed in panic and pain.

He then reached for his weapon with his other hand but the moment he picked it up, Drift was behind him and stabbed the Insecticon in the back, the sword popping out of their chest inches away from his spark chamber.

"I heard everything you said, how dare you. You threaten the lives of every living thing on this planet. You have no right to harm anything in this world." Drift said, his anger was held back. A part of him wanted to finish the Decepticon, but he wanted to show them mercy.

"Pl-please... have mercy! Please!" Tarantulas said in clear pain from the stab wound. His pride was gone as he was hurt, badly. He didn't want his life to end there and now.

"You beg for mercy after you claim to try and wipe out humans? I bet if it was any other Bot they would end you for what you said but be lucky I want to give mercy." Drift said as he released the hilt of his sword.

The moment Drift let go of the hilt, Tarantulas' pride returned as he turned around with the spider legs he had on his back started to glow and fire. "FOOLISH IDIOT! NOW GET SCRA--" Tarantulas was interrupted by Drift swinging his other sword as he was still up close, the sword was to his neck.

The next thing everyone knew was that Tarantulas' head fell on the ground and his body also fell down turning gray. Tarantulas was dead. "I gave you the choice to surrender, you should have taken it." Drift said before removing the sword from Tarantulas' back and puts away both blades.

The two Autobots reunited as they looked at the downed Insecticon. They then looked at Waspinator and were just sitting there, looking at the two Autobots. Drift had a hand on his swords while Hot Rod aimed his weapons at them, Lincoln ran up in between the Autobots and Waspinator as a sign of protest, to protect Waspinator. "Wait, wait! He's alright. He was defending me and my family, he told Tarantulas to leave us alone!"

"This true?" Hot Rod asked with Waspinator getting up and nodding his head. The two Autobots kept their guard up but still lowered their weapons. "Why?"

"Wazzpinator has had enough..." Waspinator said before hearing something, the fighting from both Bumblebee and Optimus dealing with the other Insecticon forces.

"Sounds like we need to get to our friends." Hot Rod said with Drift nodding in agreement. They then heard something over their comms. "Guess, the jammer is down. Over-Run, Found anything?"

"Yes, Lily on the roof of a building, I'll pick her up and bring her to you both. First, what's your situation?" Over-Run said over comms.

"We found the family and terminated Tarantulas, he was given the choice to surrender... he chose to be hostile and resulted in him being taken down, permanently." Drift said with some hint of shame in his voice for taking life, he never liked it, taking away another Bots ability to live, but in war everyone had to harm those who thought the same.

"I understand and-- Scrap, get ready you both are getting company!" Over-Run said as they hung up.

Drift pulled out his sword and Hot Rod pulled out his bow and pulled it for a shot. They all then heard the sound of crashing and shots fired getting closer with every second. "Lincoln, get your family out of here! Rewind, Sundor, you both escort them out of here!" Hot Rod ordered the others.

"Lincoln, how does he know your name?" Lori asked with concern.

"Ummm...." Lincoln couldn't find the answer.

"We can't leave without Lily--" Leni gave her mind on the matter before they all heard the sounds getting closer before Scorponok came crashing through a warehouse. The moment the Insecticon leader rose to his feet, a semi-truck rammed right into them.

"Optimus Prime, Transform!" Optimus said as he changed back into his robot mode followed by a swift punch across the scorpion's face. Optimus then pulled out a rifle from his back and fired multiple shots point blank at Scorponok's chest forcing them to fall down. Before Optimus had the chance to shoot more shots, Shrapnel and Bombshell in their insect forms flew behind Optimus and crashed into him, sending the Autobot leader to crash into another warehouse.

The two changed back into their robot modes, Bombshell was hit by a beam of electricity that stunned them with Shrapnel turned around before receiving a dropkick from Bumblebee who upon land ducked down to avoid a dropkick from Kickback, no wonder he was called that. Bee then pulls out a pistol and fires a shot at Kickback's back and fires a few shots on Bombshell right before the stun wears off.

Scorponok was getting back up, he turned to see Tarantulas' head on the ground away from his body. He only scoffs, Tarantulas was his most trusted ally but now he was just another fallen soldier to him. He then looked up to see Over-Run flying up with Lily in his arms, holding them bridle style which was easy since she was as small as him. Scorponok aimed on of his pierced hands before it opened with rockets popping out, he smirked before firing, however the moment the rockets left his pierces an arrow made of flames it them both exploding right in his hands with smoke clearing up, Scorponok looked in horror as his entire left hand was missing. "SCRAP!"

Scorponok turned his head to see Hot Rod was the one who fired, the Autobot then saw Bombshell firing something so he used his bow to smack it away from him, a good idea since he saw it was stuck to his bow one of his mind-controlling cerebral shots. Scorponok aimed his other arm at the Autobot only to receive a punch from Optimus with their fist flowing with what looked like brass knuckles in his hands.

Drift dashed past Hot Rod as he ran towards Bombshell only for Kickback to get between them with the grasshopper using his legs to deliver power blows that Drift used his swords to block and fight back. Bombshell used his bug wings to flow past the two fight charging at Hot Rod who tried to fire another arrow made of flames only to miss as Bombshell was close enough that Hot Rod swapped his bow for his flaming sword while Bombshell crashed into Hot Rod sending them flying alongside them Bombshell held Hot Rod by their neck but Bumblebee leaped on their back before shooting at their wrist to make them drop their friend and stunned them again.

Shrapnel stood back up seeing that they were not doing good, Tarantulas was dead, Scorponok was injured, Bombshell and Kickback were fighting, and looking around Blackarachnia was nowhere to be seen. He then saw Over-Run and Lily in the air, might as well make a diversion he guessed. Shrapnel then had static electricity forming on the stag beetle pincers on his back before releasing it into the air Over-Run saw it and swerved in the air to avoid behind only to take a hit on their wing. "Aw, slag!" Over-Run swore before they started to fall to the ground fast, before getting too low to the ground they tossed Lily onto the roof of another building to keep her safe as he crashed into the ground.

Lily looked over the edge of the building to see Over-Run as he hit the ground, luckily he survived and wasn't hurt too badly. But the building was then hit by something, a missile from a cannon fired by Bombshell was originally aimed at Hot Rod but they dodged it. The damage was so far from Lily that she wasn't hit but the building's roof was beginning to feel unsafe and the roof would cave in at any moment before it actually was. "Oh no! LILY!" Lincoln screamed as they all noticed Lily was on the roof with it beginning to collapse.

Hot Rod and Bumblebee noticed that Bee was looking to his friend who nodded to him that he would take on Bombshell so Bumblebee would go and help Lily. Bumblebee ran towards the collapsing structure, once he was there Lily was about to fall he leaped up into the air catching her, instead of tucking and rolling he transformed into his alt mode, once he touched the ground he drove away from the warehouse and swerved back and parked next to the Loud family as they were hiding inside the warehouse they were in earlier with the Mini-Cassettes guarding them. Bee opened his car door to show Lily who looked a little dizzy from the fast driving. "Can we do that again!" Lily asked excitedly.

"Absolutely not!" Screamed in union of both Lincoln, their parents, and Bee as she hopped out. The Louds then took a step back as Bumblebee transformed back into a robot, all of them awe-struck.

"His car really is a robot..." Lori said in amazement.

"I must know their secrets." Lisa said in excitement, completely ignoring the fact there was a battle happening just a few dozen feet away from where they were hiding.

"Whoa, that is so-- LOOK OUT!" Lana said as she pointed at a charging Shrapnel in their stag beetle mode trying to grab Bumblebee who quickly dodged out of the way.

Shrapnel then transformed back and aimed their weapon at Bumblebee, before firing however something started to beep on their arm. Shrapnel looked at it before smiling. In the fight still going on both Bombshell and Kickback were taking on Hot Rod and Drift only to stop after receiving the same beeping, the two Insecticons looked at each other before running from their fighting and reunited with Shrapnel, confusing everyone. "What are you three doing, get back to fighting!" Scorponok yelled at the three as he was facing Optimus Prime.

The three looked at each other before turning back to Scorponok. "Frag you Scorponok! We won't take orders from you anymore!" Bombshell answered, he didn't seem to care about Scorponok in the slightest.

"Yeah, you're a terrible leader, you give horrible orders and lead others to their downfall. Following you was the worst decision we ever made." Kickback continued towards them.

"We're rejoining the Decepticons since they have actual resources and are more functional than you could ever be." Shrapnel yelled at Scorponok before a ring appeared above them, a space bridge used by the Decepticon. "By the way, we knew they brought more Autobots!" Shrapnel finished before the ring lowered down swiftly making the trio of Insecticon disappear.

Scorponok looked at where they were, he was beyond frustrated. He looked around, he looked around to see if Blackarachnia was around, nothing. He looked at Tarantulas' dead body, useless. He remembered his most loyal ally, the closest he would call a friend, Skold, away due to the Decepticons. He then looked to see Waspinator, hiding but still able to fight. "Waspinator! Get out there and fight! Use those humans as leverage!"

Waspinator looked at Scorponok and then at the humans, all of them looking either scared or worried about him starting to fight since he was close to them. He looked at Bumblebee who had their pistol out to aim at him. Waspinator then looked down in defeat before talking. "No..." He said softly, almost impossible to hear.

"What?!" Scorponok asked in anger.

"Wazzpinator said no!" Waspinator said before walking in full view of everyone as he stared down the Insecticon ''leader" and finally spoke his mind. "Wazzpinator is not taking orders too, like Fire Ant-bot, Wazzpinator is done with all Scorponok has been doing! Scorponok led hundreds to their doom back on our homeworld to "free" it from the Waruders but they were doing better than you! Scorponok is greedy! Waspinator is sick of being evil! Sick of being Insecticon! Most of all Wazzpinator is sick and tired of being blown to scrap all the time!" Waspinator screams as he rips off the Insecticon symbol off the side of his head tossing it to the ground followed by him waving his arms around like a person who wanted so much out of his system and Waspinator had every reason to.

Scorponok just stood there with his jaw on the ground while the Autobots all looked amazed at Waspinator standing up for himself, Hot Rod even gave him a thumbs up in agreement. "So Scorponok can kiss Wazzpinator's backside! I am done with you! Wazzpinator, terror- Oh just frag it!" Waspinator then transformed back into his wasp mode and flew around like the wasp he was screaming his spark out before stopping in place and looking at Scorponok one last time. "One more thing: FRAG! YOU! AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Waspinator then flew away in a random direction.

"You know what, good for him." Leni said as if she somehow knew what they were talking about.

"Makes me respect for him." Mari said, giving her own piece of mind.

"Looks like you're alone Scorponok. Blackarachnia slipped away and is long gone by now." Hot Rod said with Red Alert giggling, he was right about slipping past him but it was more that she stunned him and she healed him of his paralysis so he could move.

"You have no pawns left and you're outnumbered!" Bumblebee said as he marched forward before aiming his weapon at the Insecticon, all alone with no backup. Scorponok looked around thinking of a way out but stopped as he heard something, then suddenly several spot lights shined on him. Looking around he noticed several helicopters around him in the air. Two that stood out the most were a Blue Bell AH-1 Cobra and a Red and white Aérospatiale SA 365 Dauphin armored with missile launchers. "The cavalry has arrived."

"Scorponok! This is S7, you have done yourself in! You have taken hostages and become a serious threat to the people of Earth, surrender now or be terminated!" Said over a loudspeaker of Agent O'Neal who was riding inside the Dauphin before turning off the loudspeakers. "Alpha Bravo, tell the Wreckers to give a warning shot."

"Roger that." Alpha Bravo said to Agent O'Neal. "O'Neal said a warning shot."

Scorponok looked around to see he was surrounded again, he felt trapped before pain as a tank shell hit his left shoulder forcing him to the ground. Outside of the sawmill, on a hill with a few trees hidden inside were a group of soldiers with Impactor in his tank alt mode with Kup who stood by. "Direct hit, Impactor, left shoulder!" A soldier with binoculars said to him.

"Scrap, I missed. I was aiming for his legs." Impactor said in frustration.

"You weren't, you were going for his head." Kup retorted.

"Yeah, I was, don't worry it was a warning shot, wouldn't offline him."

Scorponok couldn't handle this, he was beaten badly, and he felt anger and humiliation, so much was happening. He didn't know where it all went wrong. He screamed before slamming his good arm down into the ground as he spun like a drill followed by him burrowing into the ground. He was escaping.

"Light up the hole!" Agent O'Neal shouted as Alpha Bravo, Whirl, and the other helicopters all started to open fired trying to hit Scorponok but it was too late as they got deeper into the hole. Once the shooting stopped, Drift and Hot Rod ran toward the hole ready to fight only to find the hole was caved in, then looked up to see O'Neal with a curious look with Drift shaking his head. He sighed and answered his comms to the other Wreckers. "Breach team, this is Agent O'Neal, cancel your activity. Targets escaped. We do have one termination confirmed."

As Agent O'Neal hung up his comm, outside of the sawmill near the entrance stood several soldiers and the Wreckers, Rack'n'Ruin, Roadbuster, Irnofist, and Broadside looking disappointed at the order. Roadbuster kicked a booth near the entrance out of frustration.

Later on, soldiers were marching around to look for anything that belonged to the Insecticons along with a truck used to pick up Tarantulas' body and a crane claw to pick up their head. One soldier was about to take a selfie with the severed head of the Insecticon only to get slapped on the back of their head by another soldier.

Agent O'Neal walked to the Loud family, and he saw that they all looked uncomfortable. "Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Loud, correct? My name is Agent O'Neal, I am with a group and your son is helping us..." Agent O'Neal didn't know how to explain after everything they've been through, he has done cover-ups before easily since some people never saw the Autobots but this time it was impossible for him to cover up this mess.

"Agent O'neal..." Lincoln Said to the agent who looked at him. "They know, they've seen the Insecticons and seen Bee transforming," Lincoln explained to the agent with the Autobots all walking towards them all. Lincoln looked to his family. "Everyone, these are some of my new friends, my car Bumblebee, along with Hot Rod, Drift, and Optimus Prime." Lincoln said before getting a hand on his shoulder to look and see the others too. "Right, these are also along with them, Rewind, Sundor, Steeljaw, Over-Run, Sparkplug, and Red Alert, they are just some of the Autobots." Lincoln explained.

Most of his sisters were amazed at Autobots, mainly Lana, Lisa, and Luna as how amazing the Autobots were, giant robots that turned into cars. Lori, Leni, Luan, Lynn, Lucy, and Lola were taken aback at the Autobots as giant robots were something they wouldn't expect to be real. Sam and Bobby were like the sisters, a mix of amazement and shock. Then something hit his parents, something Lincoln just said. "You said just some of them?" Lynn Sr. questioned his son's wording.

"Right, there are more of them." Lincoln said as they talked about so much more that was going on, about how he met the Autobots along with Ronnie Anne, Clyde, and Stella, it was more of an abridged version with some bits kept out for reasons.

After some talking, Agent O'Neal let the family take their car which was in another warehouse away from the fighting. Lincoln kept on talking about the Autobots and who the Decepticons were, their story about them being aliens in a war with their enemies. Optimus then starts to speak and agrees to take them to their base, the family thought it might have been close but were amazed by something else, a ground bridge opening up. The Autobots and Loud family drove through the ground bridge where they saw the inside of the Autobot base with several of the Autobots that were already there. Optimus then stood tall to tell the Autobots. "Autobots, meet the Loud family."

A few miles away from the sawmill, Scorponok exited from a tunnel he made, he was seriously injured a missing pincer, a shoulder that was falling apart from a tank shot, no allies, no ship, nothing. He felt like he was at his lowest. His forces had either left him or died. "These pathetic... worthless organic life!" Scorponok said as he held onto a tree and tried to rip it out of the ground only to fall to the ground in pain.

Scorponok then heard something. Looking back he saw someone, Blackarachnia. "Blackarachnia? Where were you?!" Scorponok said in pure anger, he tried to stand up but was stopped as he felt he was stabbed. He felt down paralyzed in place, Blackarachnia had stunned him. "Wh-what are you doing?!"

"Turning you in, not to the humans who work with the Autobots but someone else." As she said several people all wearing black tactical gear with them wearing masks over their face along with goggles with amber lenses. A muscular old man wearing a similar suit as the others along with them except with a harness on his chest and no mask. He had short white hair and a scar on the left side of his forehead. "Will this work out as part of our deal?"

"Yes, thank you, this will work as a sign of loyalty to us." The old man said as he turned around to look at another man who walked out of the shadows, Doctor Arkeville. "Will this work for you doctor, this specimen is injured."

"Yes, yes! This specimen will work out. With both this and the others we have, my project will be more complete, leaving nothing behind Silas." Dr. Arkeville said to the man named Silas as he and his forces all started to look over Scorponok who tried to protest before a large truck to load him on it. As he started to feel like he could move again, Blackarachnia stabbed them again with a singer that stunned him even more.

End of Chapter.
