《Transformers Reborn》Side Story: K-132
Advertisement
In the depths of Cybertron, two figures can be seen talking. One staningin the light, one in shadow.
In front of them, behind a wall of glass, is a feminine Cybertronian.
"K-132 is a special case, sir." A Cybertronian with a sleek look and metal spikes for hair told a shadowy figure.
"Explain." The other figure responded, with a dark, thick voice.
"For one, her spark can hold larger amounts of Energon, and she's the only one who survived the argumentations sir."
The figure nodded, not really paying attention to the words of the scientist.
The scientist Cybertronian then said, "And the final reason is that the Dark Energon has no effect on her body." This sentence brought the figure back to reality.
"Hmm? How so?" Now he was interested.
"We are... not sure. No matter how much, nothing affected her. We are currently using regular Energon to keep her contained, but we don't know for how long."
Just as the figure was about to speak, the alarms blared, and a feminine voice came over the intercom.
"Warning. A very large Dark Energon pulse has deactivated all Energon based electronics. Repeat, A ver-"
The voice suddenly shut off, and so did the lights. The figure and the scientist looked at each other before they both bolted out of the room.
"Looks like this is my chance. I won't be getting it again." K-132 spoke, her optics already haveing adjusted to the darkness.
She pulled herself up and broke out of the containment room, running through the halls. The lights suddenly came back on, and the alarms blared again.
"Subject K-132 has escaped. All security personnel, arm yourselves and catch the escaping subject."
K-132 could hear the footsteps of the soldiers heading towards her location. After a few minutes of hiding and running, K-132 found an exit. The only thing was that a pile of rubble was blocking her path. Even with her enhanced strength, she could only pick up one at a time.

"There she is soldiers! Shoot her to death but don't kill her!"
"Sir, that line makes no sense."
"Just do it!"
The heavily armoured soldiers began to fire at her, but nothing came out. "Shit!" One of the cried, "The guns haven't reactivated yet!"
K-132 took this chance to pounce on the group, knocking a few out and killing the one she landed on. She dug around for his spark, found it, and started to absorb it's energy.
His scattered body started to fuse with hers, creating some kind of exosuit. The plates covered her entire body execpt for the place needed for movement. The hand that grasped the spark was turned to into a blaster.
She had overheard the conversation of the two figures that had experimented on her. She heard the various capabilities of whatever had changed her. Boosted strength, speed, agility, night vision, thermal vision, and exosuit creation.
That last one was the most interesting. Apparently, she could cover her body in an exosuit of existing materials and other Cybertronians. She had the ability to their leftover Energon to create something they dubbed a 'Core'.
She didn't know about that last part, but right now that didn't matter. She was siphoning the Energon out of the spark, argumenting her already considerable strength.
She cleared the debris, but not before siphoning the Energon out of the soldiers Sparks. The exosuit fell away as she fled the complex.
She stopped, the smile on her face disappearing as she likes looked out at the landscape. The land she had once called her home was in ruins, the cold metal ground blackned, smoke rising from the distant buildings.
She already knew who did this. Her captors, The Decepticons and their enemies The Autobots. Two different sides of the spectrum, and destroyed her home.
She looked at the building behind her.
Looks like she has some unfinished business.

Meek
After failing as an apprentice cooper and a town guard, Eli finds his place at the Rockbridge archives. Sure, he's the oldest 'junior scribe,' but he likes the job. And he's good at it, too. Then he completes an apparently-insignificant project, and the brutal reaction shocks him--with consequences that eventually shake the world. Eli gains powers. Rare and inhuman abilities. He progresses slowly, steadily, and not without setbacks. He changes, too. Is he a hero, a villain, a human, a monster? Depends who you ask. Meek is an epic fantasy with elements of progression. The basic magic is simple: five Paths, each with a different powerset. However, complexity arises from combinations, and the protagonist wields a magic all his own. Meek is set in the Valley, the only (as far as anyone knows) human empire that survived a Final Battle against a terrible foe. The Valley is warded against infiltration, but the enemy learned how to warp human souls, to foment discord within. However, another soul is also ... changed. Perhaps even 'warped.' And that soul is starting on a long (long, long) path that might, one day, prove that the Final Battle wasn't so final after all.

Psyche Reflection
In the universe, Year 20XX, there exists people who are able to enter the cognitive realms of others and alter their perceptions and emotions, for better or worse. These people are known as "Divers" for their ability to dive into the psyche of others in a process called the "Psyche Dive". The cognitive realm is unique to each individual, hence it's also named the "Reflected World". There, one's innermost emotions and beliefs are materialised when the balance between the id (source of psychodynamic energy, represented by our desires and individuality.) and the superego (represented by our conscience and need to conform to society) is disrupted, with the id overpowering the superego more often than not.As a result, the excess psychodynamic energy on either side results in the formation of Spectres, ghost-like beings that haunt the ego (an individual's personality) and push a person to ruin by clouding his perceptions of reality, influencing his decision making in the process. If left unchecked, Spectres would continue to grow in number and power, eventually consuming the ego completely to form Demons within the person's psyche. At this point, it is extremely difficult to restore a person's id to its original state, as Demons are often extremely powerful and well-protected by their army of Spectres. People who are possessed by Demons are often twisted individuals who commit the most heinous of crimes, as they have lost all of their conscience and morals, fuelled only by their desires. The Divers are the last hope for humanity against the Spectres and Demons. Armed with the power to use their cognition to fashion into effective weapons against these abominations, the Divers seek to cleanse the minds of victims from such insidious influences. 21 year old Lee Jin Kai became a Diver abruptly on his first day as a University student, after a chance meeting with a beautiful foreign exchange student by the name of Aiko Verde. Despite having different motivations, the pair must now stick together, as they traverse the psyches of various people while gathering comrades, resolving real-world issues in the process... Inspired by Persona 5.
