The Cult of Mordalis: Chapter 3

"Let's see who's at the door shall we?" Gravix asked.

As they approached, a guard appeared at the door seemingly out of no where.

"You guys again? You're not supposed to be here" Gozer replied to the familiar faces.

He swung to grab Gravix, who was at the head of the group. Gravix jumped on his head then over his back.

Gravix then waved to Stardrive and Drill Master "Thanks for the help guys!" Gravix then entered the structure.

"I knew I should've stayed on the bridge," Stardrive shouted.

Stardrive pulled out his gun only to have it whacked away by Gozer. Drill Master stepped forward.

"You don't look so tough" Drill Master replied.

Gozer swung at Drill Master, who jumped back. He swung again, this time Drill Master jumped over the arm and threw his drill forks at Gozer's gut. They bounced off, and Gozer grinned.

"Not the desired affect" Drill Master stated.

Gozer picked up the drills and threw them aside. Angry, he transformed into his tank mode.

"Stardrive, a little help" Drill Master said on edge.

"What the heck can we do against that thing?" Stardrive asked.

Gozer swung his cannon around and fired at Stardrive.

"Get my drills" Drill Master replied.

Stardrive picked up the drills. "What do you want me to do with these?"

Gozer fired his second blast just narrowly missing Drill Master. Stardrive was now a bit away from Drill Master.

"Just connect the two circle halves and toss me the drill" Drill Master shouted to Stardrive.

Gozer turned again and fired at Drill Master again.

"How do I do that?" Stardrive asked.

"Just make a damn circle toss it here!" Drill Master shouted nervously.

Gozer pulled forward and turned towards Stardrive and fired. Jumping out of the way Stardrive did as Drill Master asked and tossed the drill back. Gozer paused for a moment, seemingly to charge his cannon. Stardrive stood motionless.

"Now would be an appropriate time to show me what you've got planned Drill Master!" Stardive shouted.

Drill Master jumped on top of Gozer and bent over shoving his drill down the barrel of Gozer's cannon. Stardrive and Drill Master both jumped out of the way as the barrel exploded.

Gozer transformed, dazed. He fell over, incapacitated.

"Talk about a mess" Drill Master said as he kicked Gozer's stray parts into a pile.

"Uh, yes… well, now that he's taken care of, I suggest we figure out a way in" Stardrive proposed.

"Perhaps we should knock" Drill Master replied.

Drill Master knocked. "Knock knock, anyone home?"

Suddenly, a mysterious robed figure materialized before them. He waved his hand over Gozer, after which he disappeared. He then pointed at Drill Master and Stardrive, sending them backwards through a whirling vortex. When they landed, the discovered they were back on Cybertron, along with Lightning, Recoil, Shadowpaw, and Diamond Fire.

"What the heck just happened?" Drill Master said to Stardrive.

"How should I know?" Stardrive asked.

"Aren't you the scientific one?" Drill Master replied.

"I could be wrong, but I don't think we're dealing with science here" Stardrive finished.

Diamond Fire and Shadowpaw helped Drill Master and Stardrive to their feet.

"We need to get back to the LSS Freedom as soon as possible" Stardrive stated.
