Sorry for the delay over the last few days, guys.

Jack glanced at the large knife lying nearby. He reached out, gripping it.
"Wow, this thing is heavy," he muttered, testing its weight in his hand.
"Humans, that's not something you can lift," Drift chuckled, his tone dripping with amusement.
Jack laughed lightly, an edge of defiance in his voice. "Brother, I don't have any grudge against you. So why are you trying to show off in front of me?"
The blade in Drift's hand weighed at least a thousand kilos — maybe even two thousand. It was the kind of weapon that could easily crush an ordinary human under its weight.
But Jack, without a hint of struggle, lifted it with ease. His strength was extraordinary, capable of handling over two thousand kilograms.
Lifting it was one thing — but fighting with it was another story entirely.
Crosshairs smirked from the corner, his cold optics narrowing. "You're right — Drift does like to show off. But you, kid, who the hell are you?"
"Your father," he said, puffing out his chest proudly, his voice steady but filled with confidence.
Crosshairs narrowed his optics, his voice turning colder. "Father?!"
"No one's ever dared call themselves that in front of me, kid. You've got guts."
Jack smirked back, unfazed. "Maybe no one's dared because they weren't strong enough."
Crosshairs's expression turned dangerous. "You're saying you're strong enough?"
"Try me," Jack said casually, throwing a challenging glance across other autobots.
Tessa, who had been quietly observing the exchange, scoffed from the side. "Big words! Careful you may have to bite your tongue."
Jack shot her a playful glance. "My tongue's perfectly fine, Tessa. You should know that very well, right?"
Tessa's face flushed with anger as unwanted memories flashed in her mind. The images from their previous encounters — all those moments where Jack's bravado had caused her frustration.
A wave of irritation surged within her. "You—!" she snapped.
Cade immediately picked up on the tension between them.
He looked sharply at Tessa. "Tessa, what's that supposed to mean? why would you know about that?"
"Dad!" Tessa panicked. "He's talking nonsense! Don't listen to him."
Cade squinted suspiciously between them. "I don't think he's lying. You'd better explain clearly, Tessa."
Meanwhile, Hound — the large green Autobot — growled, his iron face contorting with irritation.
"Boy, are you trying to act tough?" His voice was a deep, rumbling growl, filled with menace.
Jack shrugged nonchalantly. "If you don't show off once in a while, what's the point of living? Might as well be a salted fish."
Hound's optics flared, his patience running thin. "That's it! I'm done listening. I'm gonna smash this little punk.
Optimus , you got a problem with that?"
Optimus Prime, ever the calm and wise leader, shook his head slowly, his voice a quiet but firm warning. "Don't harm him too much."
Jack's eyes gleamed mischievously.
"It's fine — why don't we make a bet?" he suggested, his tone teasing.
Hound growled. "A bet? Are you tired of living, kid?"
Jack laughed, completely unfazed. "Sure, I'm smaller than you, but that doesn't mean I'm weaker.
How about this — if you can beat me, fine.
But if you can't, you take orders from me for a day, Deal?"
Jack beckoned him over provocatively, clearly enjoying the idea of getting under Hound's thick skin.
"You dare insult an Autobot like me?" Hound roared, furious.
"Optimus, no matter what you say, I'm gonna crush this human. It's about our dignity!"
With a thunderous roar, Hound drew his twin cannons and opened fire on Jack.
Bang! Bang!
The ground exploded around Jack, sending dust and debris flying, leaving deep craters in the dirt. Yet Jack's expression remained calm, almost amused.
But Jack's voice came casually from Hound's left.
"Missed me."
Hound froze. When had Jack moved?
His massive form was too slow to keep up with the agile human.
Even Drift, Bumblebee, and Crosshairs were stunned.
But Cade and Tessa weren't surprised — they had seen Jack's speed before. The way he moved, always a step ahead, it was something beyond ordinary.
"I'm gonna break you in half!" Hound bellowed, charging forward like a battering ram, shaking the ground beneath him.
The earth trembled under his weight.
Optimus Prime's optics gleamed a soft blue, his voice quiet but firm.
"Let's see how this plays out."
"Are you kidding me?" Crosshairs muttered around the stub of a cyber-cigar.
"Humans can't handle this. One touch and their bones snap."
Drift nodded, his tone matching the cynicism of his comrade. "Agreed. They're too fragile to take a hit from that monster."
Optimus's face remained serious, his voice cutting through the air like a blade. "Don't underestimate him.
He's far stronger than any human you've seen."
Crosshairs and Drift exchanged a skeptical glance. Optimus said nothing more.
Reality would speak for itself soon enough.
"Don't run!" Hound shouted, his heavy cannons blasting relentless rounds of fire at Jack.
Jack darted effortlessly around the massive Autobot, his body a blur of motion.
"You think I'm stupid enough to stand still?" he taunted, his voice filled with amusement.
He jumped — soaring fifteen meters into the air, his shield raised high — and slammed it down at Hound's chest.
BANG!
The force of the blow caused a massive crash, echoing across the battlefield. Sparks flew from Hound's armor as the impact sent him stumbling backward.
"Argh!" Hound howled, his roar filled with pain as he staggered from the hit.
Crosshairs immediately opened fire to cover him, but Jack was ready.
With a swift twist, he spun his shield to block the incoming bullets, the sounds of gunfire ringing out around him.
"Useless," Jack taunted, his voice calm but carrying an edge of confidence.
"Is he insane?" Tessa gasped, watching in awe as Jack effortlessly avoided the powerful shots. Still, she couldn't take her eyes off him, her fists clenching tightly in excitement, her heart racing.
Cade, his jaw was practically on the floor, as he stared at the battle unfolding.
"I knew he was strong," he whispered under his breath, "but, this is crazy. He's a monster."
Bumblebee, Drift, and Crosshairs all gaped in disbelief, their optics wide in shock.
"Optimus, where the hell did you find this monster of a human?" Drift asked, his voice tinged with disbelief.
"I told you — don't underestimate him," Optimus said, his voice steady as always.
"Hound can't win this."
"No way," Crosshairs muttered. "The kid's good, but Hound's tougher. He'll wear him down."
"Keep watching," Optimus replied, thinking about jack and his intentions.
Meanwhile, Hound was growing more desperate. His massive frame, once his strength, had become a liability against Jack's agility. Every time he charged, Jack was already a step ahead, effortlessly dodging and weaving.
"Damn it!" Hound's voice cracked with frustration, his temper finally boiling over.
"The big guy's mad," Bumblebee chuckled from the sidelines. "Kid's gonna get it now."
With a roar that shook the very ground, Hound swung a mighty punch at Jack.
"You won't dodge this time!"
Jack met the blow head-on, raising his shield in a defiant move.
BANG!
The impact sent Jack flying backward, his body skidding across the ground and leaving a deep trench in the dirt.
"Die!" Hound screamed, his optics flaring as he grabbed an artillery tube, charging it with energy, and fired a massive energy bomb straight at Jack.
BOOM!
The explosion shook the earth, sending shockwaves that rattled the air. Dust and debris filled the space, blocking the view for a moment.
But before the smoke cleared, a figure shot out of the wreckage in a graceful arc.
"There!" Crosshairs shouted, quickly raising his guns to aim.
"Too late," Jack's voice was filled with confidence as he slammed his shield directly into Hound's chest.
BOOM!
"ARGH!"
Hound screamed in agony as sparks flew from his chest, and the force of the blow sent him tumbling backward. His enormous body crashed to the ground, sliding and rolling.
