Chapter 7: The New Members Of The Cybertron Elite Guard

At The Iacon Training Academy-In The City Of Iacon-On The Planet Cybertron

The students were about to begin one of their last tests before graduation in a week.

Suddenly their instructor, Sirotech entered the room.

He was a well-trained warrior and very respected member of the Cybertron Elite Guard.

The recruits immediately saluted.

"At ease all of you! Listen to me recruits, you all have great potential and amazing skills. Each of you passed the previous tests with flying colors. I'm very proud of you. Also, I'm positive that all of you will be in the Elite Guard before you could blink. Now I have a surprise for you all.", Sirotech smiled.

Suddenly the doors opened, and Autobot Supreme Commander Shadowstorm entered as the recruits all saluted.

"Sir!"

He smiled at them before leaving the room.

"So, shall we resume training?", Scirotech questioned as the recruits nodded.

At The Graduation Ceremony, In The Academy's East Wing- One Week Later

The recruits all stood in line.

Shadowstorm began speaking.

"Recruits, fellow Autobots! It is with great honor that I can personally hand out these new insignias to the top graduates of The Autobot Academy. That's right recruits, your future in The Elite Guard is at hand. Now please come up on to the podium once your name's been called."

He called each one of the ten recruits up to the podium and had an Autobot engrave the long-awaited Elite Guard insignias onto their shoulders.

"I present to you, the newest members of the Cybertron Elite Guard." , Shadowstorm declared.

The entire crowd cheered loudly.

Suddenly a familiar Autobot joined them.

"Commander Thunderblade!", The recruits said firmly while saluting as The Second in Command shook his head in amusement.

"At ease. There's no need for all that. Now, how about we got to the Headquarters?", He asked, unable to keep the pride out of his voice.

Everyone immediately agreed.

At The Elite Guard's Headquarters-Twenty Minutes Later

As they arrived, Thunderblade instructed a recruit to type in the security code for the door leading to the control room.

He couldn't help but smirk seeing his excited smile when "Access Granted" was heard from the system.

In The Control Room

"Welcome to the Elite Guard. You've earned it", Thunderblade thought to himself smiling.

In The Headquarters' Hangar- Seven Years Later

The Elite Guard troops hurriedly exited the elevator, heading for The Ironwill.

They got on board and went on their mission.

In The Far Reaches Of The Galaxy-Three Hours Later

The mission was simple but hard: Stop a large Decepticon strike team from getting an Autobot Base and a Space Bridge under their control.

They arrived at the base, which was located on a rocky planet.

"It's the Elite Guard! Stop them!", A Decepticon yelled, shooting at them.

After a long and though battle, they managed to win.

"The base and Space Bridge are secured.", An Elite Guard trooper stated.

Their leader nodded as the Elite Guard headed back to Cybertron with the captured prisoners.

Back On Cybertron-Three Hours Later

They arrived and locked up the prisoners at the Elite Guard Headquarters.

Mission accomplished!
