Sydrone’s Chronicles – Chapter 1: Battlefields
The Autobot ducked behind cover to avoid the heavy spray of gunfire that was firing his way. He was black and silver, and had an Autobot insignia marking his shoulder, an exotic logo circling it. He was an Assassin, and his name was Sydrone. He took a deep breath in as he reloaded his rifle. He was on the top of the Iacon Fortress, along with his fellow Assassins, and he was in charge of keeping the Decepticon Forces from breaching the line of defense, shooting any threat down that looked like it would pose a threat. The cold calculating thought processes would be alien to any other Autobot, but for an Assassin, it was natural. He surfaces from his cover, breathing in once more and scouting the Decepticon platoon that was marching towards Iacon.
He then aims at a tank, pulling an armour piercing round from his belt, and unloading the round he had already loaded, loading up the Piercing Round. His plan was to use fear, make the tank blow up randomly and the platoon of Vehicons would scatter. He holds his breath and aims at the tread, his finger slowly pushing the trigger down, then he fires, and the tank starts zig-zagging, running over Vehicons left and right, before flipping over and exploding, destroying most of the platoon and scattering the fragments that remained. Sydrone lifts his gun up, relaxing and putting his hand on the barrier he had been using for cover. Another masterful save by himself.
Sydrone’s moment of glory was not to last, the end was heralded by the sound of jet engines and Sydrone’s head snapped up, seeing the seekers, led by Starscream, “Assassins, eyes up!” He says to his fellow Assassins. He shoots a few rounds at Skywarps’s engines, before the three Seekers transform and land in front of Sydrone, Bladerunner and Sixshot. Three Assassins vs three Seekers. Starscream points at the three Assassins, “ATTACK”, Sydrone and Starscream were then locked in combat, Starscream brought out a dagger and started slashing at Sydrone. A set of three spikes sprung out of Sydrone’s gauntlet as he used it to defend himself from Starscream’s vicious attacks, then he saw his opportunity, he raised his arm up, the gauntlet catching the blade, he twisted his forearm sharply, breaking the blade. Starscream let out a hiss of fury before launching a few more punches at him, Sydrone extends his hidden blade, leaning under the punch. As he leaned back forward, he stabbed his blade sharply into Starscream’s gut and launched a vicious kick into Starscream’s gut, kicking him off the edge. Starscream transformed in midair and flew off. Sydrone smirked, satisfied with his performance, before looking at the other Seekers who had turned to look at Sydrone.
“Hmm… I think we should leave!” Thundercracker exclaims, before transforming and flying off.
Skywarp, however, charges at Sydrone, swinging his club wildly. Sydrone just leans to the side and steps around Skywarp, driving his hidden blade through the back of his throat. Skywarp crumpled, hacking up energon, growling in defiance of death, before giving one last shudder and laying still, dead. Sydrone kneels by Skywarps side and closes his optics, “May you find peace in the well of all sparks. Rest in peace” he says, reverently, before standing up and walking to the edge of the Fortress. “I’m going to make a report, you two hold this position.” The two other Assassins bowed, before grabbing their rifles and taking aim at the ever-coming onslaught of Decepticons. Sydrone would start climbing down the front of the fortress, dodging the immediate gunfire he was getting.
He got shot in the shoulder as he reached the ground, but the plasma burn sealed the wound. He just gave a grunt of pain, as he walked into the Fortress. He arrived at the War Room, where Optimus Prime, Ultra Magnus, Ironhide, Bumblebee and Prowl stood discussing their next move.
“We should go on an all-out offensive, fire every bit of artillery we have at their Forward Operating Base, wipe out the whole army” Ironhide said, slamming his fist down on the table.
Sydrone decided he would try to calm Ironhide down, “Ironhide, buddy, if we did that, we wouldn’t have any shells or power left for our other cannons and just general defences.” Sydrone says, matter of factly, Ironhide just folds his arms and stands back up “Whaddaya want, Sy?” Sydrone smirks, placing a shard of metal marked with Skywarp’s Energon on the table.
“Seekers visited.” He says, sharply, before saying “Skywarp is down.”
Bumblebee and Optimus glance at each other before Optimus says “You should return to your post, Sydrone. We don’t know how the Decepticons will react to this new information. But first… have you seen Dynamite recently?” Sydrone looks away, remembering his brother who had left the Autobots very suddenly indeed, “No. What about him?” Optimus and Bumblebee glance at each other again “Sy… we know where he is.” Suddenly, Sydrone was shown an image, Dynamite, with purple piping instead of the Autobot red, holding the head of an Autotrooper, his sword and wing now emblazoned with the Decepticon symbol. Sydrone’s optics widen “Oh Primus no…”
Optimus just puts his hand on the Assassin’s shoulder, “I’m sorry, my friend.” He says, solemnly. Sydrone just puts his head in his hands, sitting down on a nearby chair, just looking utterly defeated all of a sudden, before standing up
“I’ll think about it later. Right now, I have a fortress to protect.” He says, with a trembling voice. He then just walked out.
Bumblebee just turns to Optimus “He’s obviously going to do something rash.”
Optimus just shakes his head. “I don’t see an Autobot out for vengeance in him. I see an Autobot who is in pain. And mourning his brother’s death.”
Sydrone just walks out of the Fortress and climbs back up.
Sixshot looked at him, “Something the matter, sir?”
Sydrone just shakes his head “I’m fine, Sixshot.” Sixshot and Bladerunner just look at each other before taking aim once more.
Sydrone found himself thinking “Dy… why would you do this to The Autobots… to me…”
Sydrone then resolved that he would find his brother… and bring him to Justice.
