A few days after the date, Carol had left Earth for outer space to respond to a distress call from a planet in outer space. She said goodbye to Braedey and the others before leaving the planet, promising that she would return. Luckily, the planet where the distress call wasn't not far away from Earth, so Carol would still get back home in just mere hours should she ever be needed again.
Braedey, meanwhile, had been focusing his attention on his Beast Hunter Modes, even their Evolutionary functions. It'll come very handy against very tough opponents, and the Martin boy finds it'll help him against Thor and the Hulk, in case they should go rouge as well.
However, HYDRA were still out, and were possibly planning their revenge on Transformer. The trouble was Braedey had no idea where their bases are, and which ones to mark out as priority targets. Thankfully, Ken offered to take his best friend for a drive around Everett to help plan and cut off all the heads off HYDRA and make sure no more would take it's place. Braedey accepted the offer, wanting to finally take the fight to HYDRA's front doorstep and make them pay for messing around with their family.

26TH SEPTEMBER
2014
One afternoon, Braedey was out of the house and in casual clothing as he crossed the road in Everett, and spotted an old family car with Ken in the driver's seat. The hybrid then sat in the passenger seat. "Ken, where's your ride?"
"Girls took it out to the spa." Ken answered as he proceeded to drive. He then noticed his best friend's face. "You alright, Braedey?" He asked.
"Yeah. I'm just fine. You alright?" Braedey then asked.
Ken smirked. "Never better, dude."
Braedey then heard some baby noises coming from the back which confused him. He then looked to see a baby boy in the back seat. "You brought a baby on a mission planning drive?!" He asked in frustration.
"We're dropping him off at the spa, Braedey. He's my baby brother, dude. Have some respect." Ken exclaimed.
Braedey slapped himself mentally. "Dropping him off at the spa. HYDRA could be planning their revenge plan on me right now. We need to find their bases and destroy them before they get the chance to."
"That's what I wanna find out, man. I hate those Nazi asswipes." Ken then realised his mistake. "Sorry, little Braedey. Big Ken shouldn't be using bad words, especially with Braedey Martin."
The family car then pulled up to the spa. "Get the baby inside, Braedey."
"No way, I'm not going in there." Braedey shook his head.
"Well, you ain't gonna get payback on HYDRA, man." Ken told him. "If I go in there, I know who"s gonna kill me. Hermione Wilde."
Braedey huffed before getting out and grabbed the baby before walking into the spa. He slowly opened the door where Ken's mum was having her spa treatment, and he puts baby Braedey next to Hermione's bag. However, Ken's mum spotted the teenager.
"No, uh huh." Braedey's quickly closed the door. "You didn't see me! You didn"t see me!" He called out before making a run for it, Hermione yelling behind him.
"Tell Ken I'm going to kill him!!"
~*~*~
Ken was waiting outside in the Nissan family car when Braedey suddenly comes up running out of the spa. "Ken! Go, go! Start up the car!"
"What she do?! Is she coming?!" Ken shouted loudly.
"Just start the car!" Braedey yelled as he jumped in through the open window of the car before fastening his seatbelt as fast as he could. "Go!"
"Jesus!" Blaine exclaimed as he floored the accelerator and sped off away. "Braedey, you know Hermione for about five weeks now, how angry was she? 1 to 10? 10 being...."
"When I broke up with Jane back in my universe." Braedey replied. "Let's just say things didn't go so well between us."
"Right. So... what's the answer?" Ken asked.
"Maybe 10 being when you spilt ketchup in the Peterbilt 379, inside of Optimus Prime." Braedey quickly corrected himself as he looked out of the passenger window.
"That's it. Yeah, yeah." Ken nodded his head.
The boy from Seattle then scratched the back of his head. "Uh, a 9 out of 10." He answered hesitantly.
"A nine?!" Ken exclaimed as he then spotted something important on the middle console. "Oh, better make it a 10...." Blaine then lifted up the object. "Forgot to give her the baby wipes."
"Ken, there's no way I can't turn up at your house. Your parents think I'm some kind of vampire, which I'm not." Braedey then changed the subject and he explained the plan for Ken to access every satellite orbiting the planet and locate every major HYDRA on the planet, without the Transformer's help. "Yet, they still don't trust me one single bit."
"This isn't going to end with us burying pieces of them out in the Egyptian desert, right?" Ken asked to his best friend who shook his head.
"As a reminder, I have the best plans. You, not so much. And I can't come over to your house." Braedey pointed out.
An idea suddenly popped into Ken's head as he then smiled. "Who said anything about you being there?" He said, Braedey raising an eyebrow at what he said.
~*~*~
Later that night, Jennifer and Braedey headed off to Ken's place, not far from Ken's High School.
Anyone would immediately notice the convey of military vehicles driving through the streets, which consist of a VTOL Osprey tilt-rotor helicopter, a Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk, M1A1 Abrams tank, a Humvee TOW, and an Oshkosh M1070 heavy equipment truck with Howitzer. The military vehicles are in fact Onslaught, Vortex, Blastoff, Brawl, and Swindle. Reason why: it's because Braedey had multiplied himself into five forms and transformed into the Combaticons.
The military vehicles now pulled up to an alleyway as Ken was waiting for them, Jennifer getting out of the Humvee. "All clear?" She asked.
"Yeah, my parents don't suspect a thing. Watch over them, okay?" Ken nodded his head as he ran across the grass towards the back door.
"Hey. Thanks for staying on my path!" Ron called out from the back door. He was about to step out of the house, but Ken stopped him.
"Sorry, hey! I'll sweep it up now, and...." Ken looked behind him and saw Onslaught hiding behind a large tree. "Actually, dad. I'll take the trash as well, I'll do that right now." He added on.
"I don't need you to strain yourself." Ron said as his son continued to block the door.
"I'm not straining myself, dad. I'm gonna do the trash can, and scrape the grill right now." Ken argued back, just as Swindle hid to his left, and Onslaught stepped over the garden wall, trying to get into the backyard. "You know, dad. I love you, dad. So much."
"You know, Ken. Your mom wanted to ground you cause you're three minutes late. Well, you're early, so guess I'm not grounding you." Ron pointed out to Ken before heading back into the living room.
"Sleep good now." Ken smiled, then turned back and saw the Combaticons walking around the backyard. "What are you doing? Watch the path. WAIT!! No, no, no!" Ken yelled as Onslaught accidentally stepped on the bird bath in the middle of the path, shattering it into pieces. "You idiot!"
"Sorry, my bad." Onslaught quickly apologised. "Not used to small spaces."
"Onslaught, you could've just waited outside for five minutes. God!" Ken hissed, just as his pet puppy Husky walked outside and saw Brawl watching the drama. Jennifer ran into the backyard, her boyfriend running over to her. "I told you to watch over them." Ken hissed to her.
"Okay, maybe Braedey is in a bit of a rush." Tessa theorises.
"No kidding, Jen!" The two then heard barking and Ken saw Blue lift his leg up and peed on Brawl's foot. "Blue! Not on Brawl's foot! No no! Easy! This is Blue!" Blaine pulled the dog back as Brawl aimed his guns at the Husky. "He's my dog."
"Can I blow him up? See the pretty colours?" Brawl stated as he continued to aim his cannons at the puppy.
"No, this is my dog! Okay, everyone has dogs!" Ken stated.
"He leaked all over my foot!" Brawl growled as he aimed at the puppy. "Wanna try and talk back?"
"He peed on you? Bad Blue!" Blaine hissed at his pet, then puts the Husky down. "Back inside. Go." He said, the little dog running off back inside.
"Bad Blue." Brawl sighed as he deactivated his guns. "That's gonna rust and stink." He mumbled.
"Just shut up and go hide, please!" Ken ordered as he and Jennifer now run into the house, heading up to Ken's room. The boy started up his computer, and he now began to hack into the satellite, using the codes that Braedey had provided.
Suddenly, Ken and Jennifer heard mechanical gear shifting noises coming from outside the window in the backyard. "Now what?" Ken groaned as he and Jennifer look outside to see the Combaticons parked in the backyard and in their vehicle forms. "What? This isn't hiding. This is my backyard, not a goddamn military base. Oh, for the love of...." Regardless, the two lovebirds got back to work.
Jennifer saw movement coming from outside. "Ken, it's Onslaught. He's back." She whispered.
"Gotta deal with this right now." Ken sighed as he rushes to the window to find Onslaught outside, and he was standing in the flower beds. "WHAT?!!"
Onslaught followed his gaze and lifted his foot, stepping back a little. "Sorry."
"Braedey, listen to me. If my parents come out and see you five out here, they're going to freak out. Okay? My mom has a bad temper. You've got to give me some time." Ken explained to the Combaticon leader.
Onslaught sighed. "Then work faster, Ken. We must locate those HYDRA bases and fast."
"I know, I'm doing my best. It takes time. I'm telling you. I need five minutes min, ten tops, kay? You guys are causing a racket out there...." Ken ranted.
"Okay. Calm down, calm down." Onslaught said quietly. "We'll fall back to a safe perimeter."
Ken rolled his eyes. "You guys gotta do something before something bad happens." He asked.
"Combaticons, fall back to a safe distance." Onslaught told his teammates, backing away from the window and backing away.
"Thank you." Ken sighed in relief.
"Move." Vortex yelled out to Blastoff, only to get cut off.
"What's the matter with you? Can't you both be quiet? He wants us to stay silent." Onslaught sneered as the Combaticons retreated away from the house.
"Silent, he says." Blastoff mumbled before suddenly walking into the power lines, getting shocked by this, then tripped and fell over onto a greenhouse next door. "I'm hit! I'm hit!" Blastoff then propped himself up and shook his head from the dizziness. "Wow! That was wild. You gotta try that one day!" He said to Vortex.
"Oh, grow up, Blastoff." Vortex scowled as the power outside shuts down, and the entire neighbourhood loses power as the lights go out. "You bird-brain..." He muttered.
Using the cover of darkness, the Combaticons snuck back into the Norris house as the five of them now heard a conversation going on between Ken and his parents. Ron then started looking around the room.
"Oh, the parents." Onslaught whispered as the Combaticons hid outside the house, the leader looking into the bathroom and saw Ken's dad. Onslaught ducked away, inadvertently slammed into the house, causing another earthquake.
"Earthquake! It's another one. Get in the doorway." Ron called out from inside the house, quickly getting into the bathtub. "Aftershock, aftershock. God, I hate these."
"Hide." Onslaught whispered loudly to the other 'Bots as they quickly go to hide. Brawl and Blastoff go behind the house, Swindle underneath the house's backyard ceiling, Vortex looking around in confusion and saw Ron about to come and look out of the window, with Vortex quickly getting underneath Ken's bedroom.
Ron looked out of the bathroom window and saw all of the destruction. He groaned in exasperation. "Oh no! The yard is destroyed. Hermione? Better call the city, we've got a blown transformer. Power's sparking all over the place. Yard's a waste. Gone! The whole yard!"
Brawl then pointed his guns at one of the windows. "The parents are so irritating. Can I blow them up? Please?" He asked.
"Brawl, stealth. Stealth only." Onslaught seethed. "And we don't kill humans unless they're evil. Understand?" He hissed silent.
"Slag, I hate that word." Brawl mumbled in anger.
The Combaticons stayed hidden for the next 20 minutes until Ken popped his head out of the window. "All clear. I've found them." He told them.
The Combaticons all began to break apart and transform, now turning back into five Braedeys, before combining back together into one. Braedey then entered the room, climbing through the window. "What have we got?" He asked.
"Good news: there are not many major HYDRA bases around the world, 19 of them. Bad news: two of them are equipped with anti-Transformer weapons that are about to be distributed to the other bases." Ken explained as he showed his best friend the locations of the bases. "Those weapons will be a headache for you and the Avengers. Trouble is, if you attack one base, the others will react and start distributing the weapons to the others."
"So I'll have to attack the two bases at the exact same time." Braedey theorised. "But not with the same method."
"How are you gonna do it?" Jennifer quickly asked to him.
"I'll find a way. Get the information to Coulson and Stark ASAP. I'll handle the two HYDRA bases." Braedey told Ken before a question popped in his head. "Where did you say the nearest one is?" He asked.

(TWO DAYS LATER...)
BRAZIL
At a heavily fortified HYDRA Base, the soldiers had just received their new weapons: anti-Transformer weapons that can deal some proper damage to the forms of Transformer he turns into. The soldiers were now more confident, ready to get revenge on the robot shapeshifter who ruined their plans of global domination, and his family who all refuse to die.
However, before they could send the weapons to other HYDRA bases around the world, they heard two loud booming sounds coming from the sky. The two base commanders looked up and saw the weirdest thing they've ever seen.
Orbiting above them at 80,000ft were a pair of ships. One is a large metallic gold spacecraft hovering in the air, which sported the Autobot logo on the wings of the craft, and having four large engines on the stern, the craft being 2,992.5ft long, 2,887.5ft wide, and 315ft tall.
The second craft stretches over a mile long in length, around 6 1/2 football pitches wide, an over 300ft high body, with symmetrical spikes jutting and protruding out of the sleek body shape like they were wings, and the paintwork on the ship was dark purple and grey, which brought along a dark atmosphere.
"What the...." The base commander uttered in shock in confusion, but he didn't get to finish as missiles, lasers, and bullets rain from the sky as the two ships began bombarding the HYDRA base, causing multiple explosions, both big and small as HYDRA soldiers and agents were killed left and right, and completely destroying the facility in a matter of minutes.
~*~*~
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, another HYDRA base was on the coast, also equipped to deliver anti-Transformer weapons, was also under attack simultaneously before they could deliver the weapons, but from the sea as missiles and shells rain from the sky, causing buildings to explode, and multiple HYDRA personnel to be killed in the attack.
But who was the one who caused the destruction?
Well, out in the Philippines Sea is a modified, more modernised battleship. It happens to be the legendary Yamato-class battleship, with all its turrets aimed and targeted on the base, plus has vastly improved radar, sonar, fire control systems, and Anti-Air defences including RAM Launchers and MK15 Vulcun Phalanx, shipbourne missile canister launching systems, torpedo launch systems, single gun turrets and a helipad.
Two HYDRA bases had been wiped out in minutes, by the combined powers of K30, Trypticon and Clipper. And HYDRA's problems were about to get even worse, because the Avengers were now coming for them.
