:: Then we are agreed. ::
:: Yes, sister. Lets give those Hybrids something to think about. ::
Both Sunburst and Supernova shot up into the air, transforming into each of their Predacon modes, Nova's form was that of a heavily armored falcon, speedily heading towards the city. Sunburst's form was a two headed dragon. Sunny roars loudly, the neutral beast gearing up for a fight.

Whatever the hell these hybrids are... they're not human anymore, destroying them would be the best cause of action. They're suffering, whatever caused this to happen is out of the limits of any science i've seen on Cybertron. Shockwave and his vast scientific knowledge would never be able produce or convert organic to metal...
Cyberforming is a lost art, whoever this is that's trying to make new life from organics... they're probably trying to create cybermatter. But the formula was lost a long time ago. From guarding the Iacon Hall and the databanks in my early years, these are only myths and stories.
Going to sound morbid, but A sample is going to be needed, I have a friend who can help... We should make sure nothing's left of them, don't want MECH to get their hands on this.

Plus we must prevent the Decepticons from getting their mitts on a sample, no doubt they will attempt to replicate or use the hybrids power as a weapon of a sort to use against us. So yes, as Gearchange said, once we have a sample.
Supernova was the first to reach the city due to being the speediest of the group. She sniffed the air, soot and vile smells came from the city the more closer she got.

Sparkflare stopped as he parked himself by the pavement as followed Heavystrike to the scene. The human avatar frowned as he saw the destruction and thought to himself; Time to send the holo avatar then... Then the blue screen on the steering wheel then displayed the words TRANSFERRING CONSCIOUS TO HOLOAVATAR.......... Once the screen displayed complete, the holoavatar reached out for the door handle opened it and stepped put of the car. Sparkflare's conscious was now focus on the hard light AI.
Sparkflare looked at the city and pulled out a phone from his pocket, punched in a couple of numbers and contacted Heavystrike.
:: Heavystrike, it's Sparkflare. I would suggest using your holo avatar to go in first and scout out the area. It may be unlikely, but there may be injured humans in the city that need evacuation. ::

Heavystrike would hear both the message from Gearchange, and Sparkflare, he replied too Sparks with a vent.
::Yeah, uh I never actually switched too hardlight, I couldn't figure out how too install the fraggin thing, so... yeah, the hologram driver's just a hologram.::

Once the streets are clear, we can get a clear shot at these... things.
I'm going to call in some extra support.
Gearchange began to open up a data pad, a direct link to the armory within the base. At the push of a switch a groundbridge opened up above and a trailer fell down upright, hitting the ground hard.

Empress continued her advance in the city, crouching and allowing her camouflage to hide herself if a hybrid ever came into view. The femme made her way to an underground parkade and transformered, keeping low as to not hit her helm on the roof.
::I've made it into the city, should I take to a slice and dice method?::
The predacons arms shifted into bolt blasters as she leaned against the far wall, her sights aimed on the entry way.
::What do we do if we come across organics?::
Empress' voice filled with slight concern as figures ran past the entry.

":: Cyberforming? I thought that was a banned practice after the Intergalactic Law of the High Council? Also, is that a new Predacon I can see for our side?
If they are injured but not infected, get them out of there. If they are normal, get them out of there. If they are infected... put them out of their pain. No creature should suffer for our science. ::"
*Feenix says, activating her cloaking device and swooping down low.*

:: I've got a beat on the city, gang. It smells more vile down here than a Decepticon Smelting Pit. Looks like hell too. Soon as we find out who did this, I'm giving them one of my Plasma Cutters to choke on. ::
Supernova says, growling over the comm.

Not waiting a second longer, Heavystrike would transform into his robot mode, the mech would then convert his servo into an X18 Scrapmaker, and began to open fire on the Hybrids.
I know I shouldn't enjoy this, but I'm probably going too anyway... the part about getting too shoot something, not the fact that we're shooting at what were once humans.
Hearing Gearchange say something about getting support Heavy would chuckle over the comm-link.
::We've got 5 Wreckers, and 3 predacons one of which is Primal, plus 2 more Wreckers will probably be on there way any second. How much more support could we possibly need? A clean up crew might be better.::
He, like Empress earlier, was trying too make light of a horrifying situation.

Gearchange taps the trailer with a pede, soon it began to split and transform, soon two openings formed for him to step back into, a brace folding around them. The trailer soon folding into a set of power armor with several modules for him to choose between.
With the City Commander X, I'm all the cleanup you need.
Infected are easy to spot, anything metal is kill on sight.

Explosions were heard in the city right as Gearchange said that, Sunburst was on a warpath against the Hybrids, merely butchering everything in sight that was as tall as her. Supernova witnessed this from the sky above her and rolls her optics. She then joins the fight and dissects a few hybrids. Hoping to obtain some form of sample.

A few hybrids stopped in front of the park lot entry for moment before shrieking and running off. Empress vented, hoping they did not realise she was there, her hopes crumbled as the shrieking returned and echoed in the lot. Three hybrids came charging in Empress' direction, trampling and throwing vehicles out of the way. The femme fired off white bolts of plasma, some missing their targets and others obliterating them, she continued firing until one hybrid was left. Empress brought her wings in front of herself as her servos transformed from blasters and into blades. The hybrid began to throw itself at her, the predacon's wings blocking the blows. Empress opened her wings a slight bit and thrust her blade into the torso of her attacker, twisting it as she did so. Upon opening her wings, the hybrid reached in, managing to take a swing at her torso. Unknowing of the injury, she continued her attack by slamming her other blade into the hybrid's face plate. The hybrid fell back and Empress finished it off with a couple of plasma blasts.
Empress sat back on her haunches and leaned against a minivan, feeling it tilt back as she did so. Venting quietly, she felt a trickling of fluid down her side and looked down to see a small flow of energon, the predacon shook her head at the inconvenience. Muffled crying caused her audios to perk and she began to focus back on the lot, the crying came from behind herself.
To her surprise, a mother and her two children were hiding in the minivan, huddled close together. Empress spooked, as this was her first time around organics. She dashed away from the van, tearing her wound open a bit more.
::Why has no one told me that humans were so ugly? Where do you want me to store them?::
Empress' voice came through a bit shaky as she spoke, not enjoying the surprise.
::Three targets are down, I'll store them here for now so we can come back later for samples.::

Sparkflare nodded at Heavystrike's reason as to why he was unable to get his hologram avatar out of vehicle mode, put the phone away and moved on deeper into the city. Minutes later Sparkflare was in area where the damage of the Hybrids attacking had possibly blown over. The streets were covered in bodies of both hybrid and human alike. Buildings were destroyed, cars turned over, it was horrible. Sparkflare walked up to the nearest corpse of a human, gently lifted up the wirst and checked for a pulse, as he expected; there was none.
The sounds of gunfire in the distance could be heard. Not of human authority, but by Autobots. Sparkflare began to feel sick inside. He experienced this before wih Nyon. The humans were the innocent civillians and the hybrids were the Omega Destroyers (wasn't really helpful with the fact that it was Autobots who eere firing weapons and the Omega Destroyers were built by Autobots). The human avatar of Sparkflare sat down on the road and began to rub face with his left hand as his right was on his leg, trying to resist the urge to cry from the memories, the guilt, the arrogance, the stupidity, the cowardice, the deception and the delusion he had given himself, all because he didn't have the guts to say no in the first place.
As Sparkflare removed his hand away from his face, his skin around his eyes were red. Once he had calmed down, Sparkflare looked at the corpse of the hybrid, stood up and walked over to it. Sparkflare got close, he knelt down and examined the body. He remebered the files about cyberforming, it could work on organic planets but it would not have any affect on intelligent beings. The male examined the body closer trying to find out what was going on with these hybrids.

Firefist drove strait into a hybrid and transformed. With the Hybrid stunned he would reach for his backpack and pull out his Rocket pistol and aim it at the hybrid. He would fire one rocket at the hybrid and it would explode with color.

Heavystrike had fired the first shot. The bullets of the X-18 pinged against the armour of the Hybrids it hit, each of them soaking up a small amount of fire before being destroyed entirely. The rest of the attacks seemed to have a similar effect, causing the hybrids they killed to almost evaporate into thin air. Even as their kin fell, most of the Hybrid seemed to remain single-mindedly focused on what they had been doing before, and only a few attacked their new assailants, charging at them on all fours to try and move in for the melee strike.
Ultimately Sunburst had been the most foolish of the group, choosing to get up close rather than stay back and pick off the vast horde. A group of about 5 of them charged at him from the front, and another came from behind, each trying to tear into her armour plating with their sharp talons and claws. Anyone who got closer would suffer a similar attack strategy, although you might not call it strategy. In seconds however, the Hybrids attacking Sunburst might've seemed to have multiplied, but rather it was just more of the Hybrid diverting their attention to her. The rest of the horde on the other hand, which despite the large amount of them attacking Sunburst (About 20-25) was still vastly more numerous. The sounds of gunshots from other locations, started to draw their locations, and they would shriek again in response, groups similar in size to those attacking Sunburst would start to rush those opening fire.
Perhaps however, being attacked by a large amount of Hybrids that seemed to continue to mount was the least of their issues. The News helicopters remained in the sky, and tracking the sounds of the gunshots and movements of the horde, found their cameras trained on the various Autobots, not to mention the 30ft flying Phoenix in their airspace. Some of them had been present at the disaster in DC, some of them were hated by the populace.
Were the Autobots to blame?
This was the question on the viewers minds as they continued to watch the unfolding madness.

Sunburst looked like she was getting into a pickle, small amounts of armor plating fell off her and she spread her large wings, attacking and destroying a few before shooting up into the air to avoid them. Supernova on the other hand, witnessed this and face palmed.
Sunburst you're still as foolhardy as I remember.
Supernova then transformed her right servo, her entire forearm begun shifting in plating as her servo then became the minigun in which Taggon created, The Pyre Relinquisher, she deemed the rarely used weapon perfect for multiple targets and densely gathered ones. She begun spinning the large weapon and rained down a hail of incendiary bullets down upon the Hybrids. Despite the weapon's great power and kick, Nova held her hovering spot, though it would not take long for the weapon to overheat, so she utilized the weapon while she could.

Gearchange let his power armor's turbines kick in, letting him soar into the sky, when he had gained enough altitude he cut the engines and soared downwards, landing in the center of the fight. The ground shook beneath him.
He surveyed his surroundings and then raised his battlemask.
So, what are we going to call these, synthetic terrorcons?

Heavy ceased fire, so his weapon could Cool down, and would toss a few frak grenades at the Hybrids. Heraing Gears' question, Heavy would laugh. Hm, organics turned metal? Cyberformed humans, maybe Cybans?

Empress began to push the minivan to the furthest back corner of the lot, searching for other survivors as she did so. After a few minutes the predacon had gathered a total of 6 cars with 15 humans total. She often had to motion with her servos a few times for the humans to stay quiet, not wanting to draw in any more Hybrids. One of the humans shrieked at Empress as she gently moved their vehical. A hybrid came bursting into the lot, galloping at the femme. Acting quickly, Empress pushed the car away and turned towards the Hybrid, she kicked an empty vehicle at the freak, causing both to slam into a pillar, and crushing it's spine, paralyzing it. Empress fell back on her haunches and assessed her injury. I should be fine for now.
Multiple shrieks sounded outside the entry, Empress switched to beast mode, the process twisting open her wound even more. She galloped to the entry, her central core began glow white as she prepared a fire charge. The femme unhinged her jaw, a glowing red pipe appeared from the back of her throat. Empress stopped a few meters away from the hybrids, the heat of her fire began to burn on the inside. She snarled, a piston activated pushing out a molten material from the pipe, it sprayed the hybrids. They shrieked loudly as metal began to melt and drip to the pavement. Empress vented loudly, her intake glowed a hot red and steamed heavily, her internal structures burned as a result of the charge. Panting, she turned on her comm,
::Nova, Sunburst, and Gearchange, make as much noise as you possibly can, I have a plan.::
After cooling her systems, Empress took to the skies in an attempt to locate the two.
::I believe the hybrids are drawn to noise, if we can get them all in one area we might be able to drop bombs from the sky, taking many out at once.::
Energon dripped from her side each time she flapped her wings, she ran an internal scan and was not comforted by the results.
