Cherreads

Chapter 28 - Ch 28. A flat tire.

....

"I want to apply for a mission, maybe a high-paying mission," Brown said.

Brown set aside several sheets of paper containing mission proposals. However, all the high-paying missions had already been contracted by people.

Not long after, Brown finds a piece of paper with notes of an uncontracted mission.

The mission paper was submitted by a woman named Elita-1. With the mission goal to take pictures of a planet.

"Isn't this an easy mission?" Brown asked.

"Easy? Don't you see this mission was submitted 2 years ago and no one wanted it!" said a man in front of him.

"Whatever, the pay is great. I could upgrade my body with that money. And there's a lot more to it," Brown said.

"This is a dangerous mission, are you sure you want to choose it?" asked the man in front of Brown.

"Never mind the danger. If you like, I'd like my teammates to go there too," Brown said.

"Do you have insurance? And will your team agree?" the man asked.

"Come on old man, I want you to cover up the dangers of this when my colleagues sign their contracts," Brown said.

"Uhh... kids these days. Don't care about their lives for money. I'll reprint the sheets. If anything happens to you, don't blame me." The man then went to print the mission sheets.

Mirage and Arcee then come to meet Brown.

"Yo, buddy, have you found the mission?" asked Mirage.

"Did you choose the mission to catch the thief again?" Arcee asked.

"Here's the sheet, boys!" The man then handed the sheet to Brown.

Then Mirage and Arcee started reading the mission sheet.

"Wow, this is a cool mission. I might try it!" said Mirage.

"Wow, the pay is really expensive?... Isn't this mission strange?... But the mission proposer is Miss Elita-1," said Arcee.

Mirage then took a pen, and immediately signed the mission contract.

"Come on Arcee, just sign it!"

Arcee then immediately signed the contract as well.

Brown then muttered. "Well, this is it... I'll throw Mirage to that planet. Then with that big money, I'll do physical surgery and imitate Mirage. I'll take all the attention he has, hehehe!"

Brown has an evil plan in this mission.

****

Brown lay on a stretch of ash, lying down and looking at the dark sky.

"Mirage... I didn't know your face was the reason you were popular. I was hoping so at first, but you ruined everything. But anyway, I still want you dead and I'm taking your position... Just you wait, Mirage." Brown sat down and frowned.

....

"You can't do it!"

A voice like a man's sounded close to Brown.

Brown looked to the right and left. "Who's there?!"

Suddenly the body felt like it was being electrocuted.

From a distance, someone was seen walking away. Realizing it, Brown immediately stood up.

"What is Voidecay?!! Hey!! Wait there, hey!! Where is our ship? Where is it?" Brown called out to the mysterious man.

But then the mysterious man disappeared along with the fog that enveloped him.

"He disappeared... Who was that person? Voidecay?... But Voidecay doesn't have such a heavy voice?... My body is shaking... what is that?" Brown hugged his own body.

Brown then continued walking away. But something glowing from the fog began to appear.

But Brown seemed to know.

"Not again!" he said.

Brown immediately transformed into a vehicle. He decided to immediately step on the gas and leave the location.

Because, thousands of Transformers were walking in a hurry from a distance.

However, when looked at more closely, their bodies were not intact, it turned out they were a group of living corpses.

....

Mirage and Arcee both walked back to the Voidecay area. 

"We came to find out why you didn't kill us. Even though you have so many advanced weapons that should have done it easily," said Arcee.

They both came face to face with one of the men leading the guards.

"Our Lord asked for it, that's why we didn't kill you!" said the leader of the guards.

"Let us find Voidecay!" said Mirage.

"The Lord is currently away in space, and he left a message to borrow your ship. The one inside right now is one of his Clones to manage this laboratory," explained the leader of the guards.

....

"That's enough, Mythic. Let them in!" said Voidecay from behind the door of his room which was guarded by the leader of the guards.

"Very well, my Lord!" said the guard leader.

Then the leader of the guards opened the door to Voidecay's room because the Lord ordered him to.

Arcee and Mirage are finally able to enter and meet Voidecay for the umpteenth time.

While inside the room Voidecay was having fun with some of her female servants. She was painting her body with bright colors.

The maids also did not forget to satisfy their desires by groping Voidecay's body.

"Ahem!" Mirage cleared his throat.

"What's wrong, Mirage and Arcee. Are you not satisfied walking around out there?" asked Voidecay.

"We need to talk, just the three of us!" Arcee said firmly.

Voidecay then asked his servants to leave.

"You guys are just disturbing me. Tell me, what's wrong?" Voidecay asked.

"You let us escape, but you didn't let us off this planet, why?" Mirage asked, glaring at Voidecay.

"...Hehehe, that's because you guys pique my interest," Voidecay said.

"Can't you speak more seriously?" said Mirage.

"Enough joking!" Arcee said.

Voidecay then sighed. "Huhh... You guys... I let you live here because of my gratitude for you providing related information, Elita-1."

"Why don't you let us go home?" Mirage asked.

Arcee then continued. "We've been trapped for 20 years on this dead planet with millions of undead out there."

"They just need your energon. Once they get it, they'll stop chasing you," Voidecay said.

Mirage walked over while saying, "Yeah... we died and—"

"—I don't care about your lives." Voidecay glared at the two of them.

Voidecay lowered his head slightly.

"You can only go home after I ask you to," he said.

"Chih!" Geram Mirage.

Mirage then waved his right hand. A bright light emerged from his hand and condensed into a purple light sword.

"Beats around the bush... I've had enough, it's time for the final round. You have to kill me to finish this fight!" Mirage snapped.

Arcee also then prepared her spear weapon.

There is no more tolerance this time.

Voidecay sighed. Once again Mirage and Arcee were ready for a rematch.

"Wait a minute... where's Brown? Didn't you bring him here?" Voidecay asked.

"He's gone!" Mirage said.

"Well.... Besides, I'm sick of having to fight you guys every day!" said Voidecay.

Voidecay then stood up from his throne-like seat. Stepping down the stairs, looking up with a confident smile.

"Go!" said Voidecay.

Mirage then gripped the weapon and pushed his feet. In addition, there were three lights shining on his side, until the light changed to resemble his form.

Mirage's famous self-cloning technique, a kind of hologram cloning.

Moving with Arcee holding her spear.

A perfect and very identical clone, difficult to distinguish.

Even though it was fast for them, for Voidecay they were still moving slowly. That was because Voidecay had eyes with high shutter speed.

"Ah, a perfect shadow. But..." Voidecay muttered.

Voidecay then immediately headbutted the real Mirage with his elbow.

**Use!**

"Uhgg," Mirage's voice shrieked.

Then he pushed Arcee away with his arm. Arcee just crashed into him until she fell to the floor.

....

"Your abilities are indeed extraordinary, Mirage. However, your hologram can't copy the shape of your dick," said Voidecay.

"Rghhh!" Mirage growled as he tried to stand back up.

"And... Arcee, there's too much open space to attack you," Voidecay said.

Voidecay then walked back to sit on his throne.

"Servant, continue massaging my shoulders. This time I also ask for my thighs to be painted dark red," he said.

Some of the maids came back there to continue massaging and painting Voidecay's body.

"... I'm still not defeated!" Mirage shouted.

"Arggggg!!!!"

Mirage's scream echoed in the room, with her hands tightly clenching her weapon.

"Oh my!" said Voidecay.

**Wush!**

A large octopus-like tentacle emerged from beneath the floor and entangled Mirage.

"... Nggh... what is this?"

"Mirage!" Arcee said, running towards Mirage to help.

A large tentacle with a gray color, but on the palm is blue. Looks organic but very hard. Just one wrong move can crush Mirage's body.

But it seemed like the tentacles weren't hugging Mirage too tightly.

Arcee then attacks the tentacle with her spear, hoping to release Mirage.

But with all his might and as much slashing as possible. Unfortunately, even though it was organic, the slashes didn't leave any marks.

"No way!" Arcee said.

"Come on, I need some privacy. You guys can't even beat my clones, let alone the real me," said Voidecay.

Then the tentacle swept Arcee and Mirage until they were thrown out of the entrance of Voidecay's room.

The guard named Mythic then closed the door and stood there silently.

....

Brown from the top of the hill saw what Arcee and Mirage were doing.

"They're back there fighting Voidecay... I'm sorry, but I'm a smart guy," Brown said.

After Mirage and Arcee left the area, he then infiltrated there.

Brown took some tools like pliers, screwdrivers and some stuff. Put them in his chest pocket and pulled them out from there.

"I'll prove my achievements. I can create a rocket, whether it fails or not. At least I'll use it to go."

On the way out, Brown saw a capsule rocket belonging to the Voidecay laboratory. He proceeded to take it too.

....

In a faraway place, he begins his project, to create an alternative ship for himself, and makes Mr. Stone to criticize.

Mr. Stone was created from a sack filled with new things and his face was painted.

"They will die here, meanwhile the two of us will arrive on Cybertron and will be welcomed... but how do I do the body swap operation, hmm...."

Several days passed....

And finally Brown finished his project.

"Ah, it's time to go, isn't it?" Brown asked Mr. Stone.

Mr. Stone smiled all day for Brown.

"Huh... I'm not being stupid just because I'm quiet. They definitely won't expect this," Brown said.

Brown then started to show his red button to Mr. Stone.

"Press it for me, okay. Mr. Stone when we leave, because I only made two chairs. One for me and one for Arcee."

"Hmm... I might kidnap Arcee later. Hahaha, I hope this can be worse!" 

....

But it seemed from a distance another horde of zombies was seen running towards Brown.

"Ouch!" Brown quickly strapped his homemade rocket to his back.

"I guess I have to leave you, Mr. Stone. I hope they don't bite you!" Brown said.

Brown then immediately changed form into a vehicle. Spontaneous gas to immediately leave the place from the pursuit of the Zombies.

....

"We're going to die here!" said Mirage. Sitting on the empty ground felt hopeless.

Arcee grabbed Mirage's shoulder, sitting beside her.

"... I hope we die together."

Arcee then lay down on Mirage's lap.

"Huh..." Mirage sighed.

"Where are we going?"

"Let's try to find Brown," Arcee said.

"No-no... he has bad intentions for us," said Mirage.

"What if he needs our help?" Arcee asked.

"Arcee, he hurt you. You still believe he needs our help," Mirage said.

Arcee then sat down and refused to look at Mirage.

"We've been a team for a long time. We're like family, aren't we?"

Mirage pondered for a moment, remembering the happy moments with Brown. They sometimes seemed close and sometimes fought with each other.

"Leave your childishness behind. I want you to know whether we die, we must stay together." Arcee then stood up.

"... Alright... Let's look for Brown." Mirage then stood up.

**Gosh!!**

Suddenly Brown hit Mirage, causing Mirage to bounce, as did Brown.

"Brown!!" Mirage woke up. Her fists clenched tightly.

"You guys!" Brown was shocked.

Arcee immediately approached Mirage and helped her stand up.

"What a coincidence!" Brown clenched his fists.

'Time to act,' Brown muttered.

"I created a rocket so we can go home, I have tested its speed and power, but unfortunately it can only carry two people," said Brown.

Brown showed his Rocket creation that he carried on his back.

 

"... You're suspicious, Brown. You must be planning something. Because... why only now?" Mirage glared at Brown.

"..." Brown was silent.

"Why are you guys always fighting?!! We're going to die if we continue like this. If we all want to survive, please..."

Arcee clasped her hands together, and begged. "Stop this!"

"... In your opinion... who is the one person who should be left behind?" Mirage asked.

"I... you two have to stay safe!" Arcee said.

"No Arcee..." Mirage glared at Brown.

**Rahhhhh**

Zombies were visible from a distance.

"Of course you are Mirage, I created this, deliberately waiting for you to be helpless," said Brown, staring sharply at Mirage.

....

Tears streamed down Mirage's cheeks and dripped down her chin.

"You're so cruel, Brown!"

 

"W-what did you say, Brown?" Arcee asked.

Brown then moved quickly and hit Arcee's neck, knocking her out. Brown then carried Arcee.

"Since when did you plan this?" asked Mirage.

"We've been to the labs many times. I got their rockets, I just modified the power to keep them going in space," Brown said.

"You bastard, Brown!" Mirage kept clenching her fists tightly.

"Sorry Mirage, but you have to die here. It's for your own good!" Brown said, staring coldly at Mirage.

Brown then got into his rocket and took Arcee with him.

"I thought we were friends. Why are you being so cruel to me?" Mirage said.

Brown adjusted some buttons and systems. The machine then started with a single tap.

"I also want to live with you guys. Why are you so cruel to me? What did I do wrong to you that you are this evil? Do you hate me this much?" said Mirage.

Brown then proceeded to pull a lever. Their rocket began to rise.

"Arcee would be nothing without me. She is my sister, Brown. Please don't separate her from me... BROWN!!"

Brown's rocket shot quickly toward the surface.

"BROWN!!"

The Zombies pounced on Mirage there.

"BROWN!! Help me!"

Mirage was helpless, he resigned himself to being the target of the Zombies. He kept screaming and calling out to Brown. 

The zombies bite her body and tear her body apart. Eat her, and take the Energon in Mirage's body.

....

The zombies then left Mirage's body, his body was no longer intact.

....

Brown and Arcee in the rocket had already left the planet Jupiros, leaving Mirage alone there. How cruel, Brown.

'I regret it a bit, but it's okay. The important thing is that I brought Arcee with me. This was according to plan, letting Mirage get killed there,' Brown thought.

....

Someone walks closer to Mirage's body. Voidecay comes there.

"The zombies want to be free from the Dark Energon infection. Their instincts lead them to devour whole Transformers, especially their Energon," said Voidecay.

Voidecay then sat down and carried Mirage's body. Voidecay transformed into a vehicle, and placed Mirage behind him. Carrying her away.
