Author's Note

I am SO, SO, SO, SO, SO SO SO sorry for not getting this out earlier! And I am so sorry for not getting much progress or any sort of fics out for you guys. My motivation and my schedule has gotten in the way too many times, and I've neglected this story. Well no more.

I'm going to finish the story as soon as possible. Hopefully you guys will like what I've got here.

You Are A Pirate!

We now return to the Transformers...

The pirate bots were keeping guard at their warehouse base, keeping their eyes out for if Overload returned. But as they waited, everyone just remained on the bottom floor standing near the open warehouse door while Smallfoot remained in her restraints on the top floor.

But as they waited on the ground floor, everyone went dead silent as they heard a strange sound. A very odd sound. The sound of a loud song booming. But where?

"I'm not the only one who hears that, right?" Shadelock asked.

"No," Forewing replied. "I hear that noisssse to my audio reccccceptors toooo...."

All four looked to each other with confusion and gave one nod to one another. They had to know what was causing the racket. So they all ran outside with loaded guns and looked around. Where was that noise coming from?

Their optics looked forward and they had a bit of confusion as they saw a black shadow hovering over the ground, slowly moving right where they were. Slowly looking up, they all let out a gasp at what they were seeing.

The underside of a wooden ship was all they could see, but there were a few other details sticking out the side that they could notice. There were a few metallic cannons sticking out the sides, and a few masts sticking from the sides. How was that ship floating in the air, and who was piloting it?

Before anyone else could say anything else, they listened very closely and they heard... singing. A bunch of people singing on the top of that ship.

Oh we're dealing with an enemy whose plan's a big mess
Way hey, take the bots down
They've developed a plan that makes no stinkin sense!
We'll try so hard to take the bots down!

Jumping off the side of the ship were three giant mechs all the same height. One was Road Rage, the other was Overload, and the other was Sour Sweet now with her power suit. But this time, all of them had some new additions to their looks. Overload's doors now had swords crossing behind the Decepticon markings, Road Rage's insignia now had two bones crossing underneath her Autobot logo. And sticking from her back was a small black flag with a pirate skull and crossbones picture on it.

Sour Sweet's suit had some new pirate branding on it too. The doors had skull and crossbones insignias on them, and two American flags waving off the sides were visible too.

The two opposing sides just stared at each other in awkward silence and with a few snarls.

"So... what the flying front-end loader did you all just say?" Shadelock asked.

You people are trespassing on our entire land!
Way hey, take the bots down!
Your feet do not belong on our uncharted sand!
Give us some time to take the bots down!

"Will you all shut up!? Sweet Solus, your singing is more terrible than mine!" Scatterspike yelled, covering her audio receptors.

"Alright you pirate wannabes, surrender or die!" Sour yelled.

"Why would we-" Shadelock stopped talking as he looked to the lady that was on Sour's right. Road Rage was here! "Road Rage my old friend." Shadelock smirked. "I'm glad to see you're not harmed. For a second I thought-"

"Let Smallfoot go." Road Rage interrupted.

The group of four stopped their attention on everyone else, and they looked to Road Rage with confusion.

"What did you just say?" Roughedge asked.

"I said...", Road Rage gritted her teeth. "Let. Her. Go."

"NOW."

Shadelock raised a brow. "Why should I?"

"Listen to me, and listen to me right now. She didn't do anything wrong, I was the one who hurt her, and I've regretted it ever since. I joined you guys because I couldn't look back at what I did. But now, I'm making things right, so I'm going to ask you one last time. Let her go!"

Shadelock transformed his right arm into a fusion cannon and aimed it at the group. Forewing equipped two guns from his arms which pulsated with yellow energy. Roughedge whipped out a giant machine gun that required him to hold with both hands, and Scatterspike grabbed two quills sticking out of her back.

Road Rage snarled and two twin blasters equipped from the blue armored plating above her hands. Sour Sweet's suit pulled out several guns and mini-rockets that equipped from all sorts of places. Lastly, Overload gripped his metallic hammer and raised up in the air, unexpectedly, lighting bolts zapping down on the hammer with glowing blue surrounding the steel.

"You pirates want to fight... then lets fight." Roughedge grinned.

"I think maybe this gang of pirates are gonna kick some metal booty." Lemon said with a smug look.

"Enough talk. Everyone... ATTACK!!!" Sour yelled at the top of her lungs, banging her chest like an ape before charging at her foes.

With a loud scream from both sides, everyone leapt into battle.

Overload focused on Forewing, and he used his hammer to swing at every attack that the giant Insecticon made. The Insecticon made have been bigger than him, but Overload didn't back down from a fight.

"You better watch yourself insect... or I'll become more ruthless... and you know exactly what happens when I do."

The Insecticon just let out a howl and he punched Overload down.

Roughedge and Scatterspike dealt with Road Rage and two of the girls as the cluster circled around each other, trying to find each other's weak points.

"I always knew there was something bad about you Roadie. I just didn't think it'd be you had a spark for Autobots." Roughedge said.

"Don't let them get in your head panty girl! He's just trying to make you mad!" Lemon said, moving with Road Rage.

"Just focus on fighting." Sugarcoat replied.

"I'm going to do much more than focus." Road Rage said, whipping out weapons.

Sour put her attention onto the gang's leader, Shadelock. She threw her first across his left cheek which hurt him mildly, but he came back and swung his right claw at Sour, scratching at her suit's metal plating.

"You're wasting your time human, and you're wasting ours. All we want is just a Decepticon, and we can't do our job with you organics in the way." Shadelock said, swinging his talons at the girl.

Sour blocked another attack by swatting his hand off to the side and punching Shadelock in the gut.

"You shouldn't have come here in the first place you pirate wannabe!" Sour yelled, punching him in the face again, throwing him against the ground. As soon as he was down, Sour jumped on him and raised a fist ready to beat him senselessly.

"Alright. You've got 10 seconds to tell me where my girl is, or I'm going to pound you like last night's chicken!" Sour yelled.

Shadelock said nothing, but instead, pulled his left arm up and pointed his arm cannon at Sour's chest, shooting her with hot rounds of laser, forcing her off of him.

As soon as she was on her feet, he pulled his cannon out on her and readied to shoot. "You're too late sweet cheeks. And we'll be leaving with our bounty, and that scraplet of a Guardian Gobot."

Before Shadelock could pull the trigger and shoot, he heard the sound of a gun clicking and loading up coming right behind him. Along with the clicking, came the noise of a cold barrel pointed at the back of his head.

"Don't you even think about it Shadelock. Unless you have a death wish..."

Sour looked and she gasped when she saw who stood right behind her. A big smile graced her face when she saw who it was.

"...Baby?"

The Transformers will return after these messages...
