Return Of HamsterTron

Lost at Sea


The lost spark floated almost poeticly through space, its body mostly deteriorated and wasted away. Still being punished for a crime committed eight years earlier. The being once known as HamsterTron lay asleep in the quiet of space. There, he had floated in his eight year voyage toward the edge of Decepticon space as in the sentance and into the neutral zone. As it had seemed, on this coarse, that this lost soul would never see sentient existance again. But this, like many other things in his life, were ill-predicted.

* * *

The Decepticon high counsel sat in meeting as it had for the last two and a half hours, discussing Decepticon and Predicon affairs. Commander Sunflash stood up to address the new subject matter.

"High Commander Megatron, I have before me the progress report on the newest cloning-transmetal 2 project. It is officialy 52% complete. The team of myself, and Leutenants NightLiona and OmagaPrime, have decided on the first test subject." Sunflash pressed a button on the machine before him. It brought up some schematics. "We are sticking to the traditional cloning of deceased protoforms. With this in mind, we all agreed to resurect to the protoform known as Dark Airazor."

OmagaPrime and NightLiona nodded in approval.

"We are expecting this new transmetal 2 to be complete in around in a few megacycles."

"Excellent." The High Commander Megatron beamed. Your team has served the decepticons well ever since it was stationed on this project. Lets see that this continues in the future." Megatron turned to the rest of the counsil. "Now, as the next matter."

A large Decepticon stepped up. "High Commander, this is something you might want to know about. The scout KabuHex has reported that the ship is damaged. He have been steered off coarse into the neutral zone."

"Blast! We need a scout in the Delta sector!" He sighed. "Very well, Hellscream, assign one of your troops to the Delta Sector." He turned to the large Decepticon. "Keep an eye on that ship."

Megatron turned back to the counsel. "Are there anymore matters that should be brought forward before we adjurn this meeting?

"Commander!" The large bot stood up. I'm receiving a message from the damaged ship...


KabuHex smacked the com system of the old freighter. "How do these people expect me to get anything done with this peice a slag?" He said aloud.
When he struck the controls, it flicked on the scanner system. A small rectangular blip showed up.

"All right now, something interesting." He scanned the object. "A stasis pod? I thought they stopped using those things like, five years ago." He leaned over the com.

"KabuHex to Decepticon counsel, I've discovered something interesting. Its a small rectangular object with a faint energon signature. Permission to take it abord?"

After the predicon on the other end granted permission, he activated the tracking system. The stasis pod drifted easily toward the freighter. In a matter of minutes, the pod was ready for inspection. KabuHex opened an open channel to the Decepticon counsel.

The large Decepticon flipped a switch on the machine before him. "KabuHex is opening a com recording." Soon, sound came from the machine and filled the whole room.
"Decepticon high counsel. I guess it was luck that I got steered off coarse. I have detected a stasis pod that seemed to be years old. I'm about to crack this baby open and check out who's inside." ~sounds of beeping and button pushing~ "Wow, this thing IS old. It uses access codes from like eight years ago...Ok, I can see the bot inside. A bit rusty, a bit deteriorated, but still intact. Sheesh, looks like the guy had a lobotomy or something. Well, I guess I've bring him into the real world." ~sounds of pressure realise and ions powering up~
"Ahh! Not banish HamsterTron! Me just doing what logic things told to! Ask mangled-bot! Ask Mangled-Bot!"
"Woah woah woah pal, calm down there. Nobodys gonna banish you, just stop jumping around like a psychopath."
"Nooo! HamsterTron need to find eatable fruits and bugs! Store them in cavern!"

All three of NightLiona, Sunflash, and OmagaPrime looked at each other in shock upon hearing the name.

"Predicon counsel, I'm now administering a tranquilizer to calm this guy down...There we go. I now have the bot in my custody. Man, something musta really spooked him before them put him to sleep. Well, I'm gonna scan his data tracks to see who this guy is." ~sound of KabuHex opening cerebrial line~ "Oh wow..." ~Sound of something hitting the floor~ ~silence~

Silence rained over the Decepticon counsel. Small chatting voices started to erupt. However, all conversation stopped when a fermilure voice flowed over the line.

"Predicon counsel, this HamsterTron. Me find from Kabu-Man's head that I been lost in space for eight years! HamsterTron not stand for this! HamsterTron now in control of this ship! HamsterTron angry Predicon counsel! HamsterTron not grace you with presence, you banish HamsterTron! Me going to Cybertron, going to kill big Maximal man! Be better than Predicon counsel!" End of Transmission.

Chatter flowed all around the Decepticon counsel at this sudden change of news. Megatron was finally able to maintain order after a few moments.

"Silence! Silence in the counsel! We shall take care of this matter in a civilized manner! So we are to believe that a defective protoform from the past has returned. He poses no threat to the Decepticons. However, it may be logical to obtain it and study it for historical perposes." He made out a form on the console in front of him. RampageX, OmagaPrime, Soundwav, you will be in charge of the apprehention and retreval of HamsterTron. There, problem solved, on to the next affair..."

* * *

OmagaPrime made his way down toward the lab he had worked in for the last few months with RampageX close behind. Even though it was proven that he had been re-programed and they had been fellows for the last eight years, OmagaPrime was still always a bit uneasy around RampageX. The image of his massive attack and the deaths of Onyx Omaga, Wavefury, and Dark Airazor were still fresh in his mind. This is why he came down to the lab. He met up with Sunflash and NightLiona there.

"You guys know what to do, right?" He asked them.

"Yeah, we just keep the project going, no matter what. Don't worry, the clone will be completed in a matter of days." Sunflash answered.

"Alright, I leave in a few cycles. See you later." OmagaPrime said over his shoulder, heading for the flight hanger.

In the massive flight hanger, he met up with Soundwav.

"Hey Sound, you ready for this?" He asked.

"Yeah sure, whats there to be ready for though. We're just picking up some insane protoform." He answered.

"Yeah, but still, I've been on missions with HamsterTron, and I hate to say it, but I've got a bad feeling about this." OmagaPrime said, walking over to the vessel.

"If you believe in fate.." Soundwav trailed off.

The three predicons were strapped into they're stasis pods and prepared for departure. As always, nothing was said. The trio drifted into stasis sleep, and the ship departed.

HamsterTron sat at the helm of the old freighter, blinking looking around. Lucky for him it was old, otherwise he would completly have no idea how to pilot it. Somehow, he was slowly figuring how to plot a course to Cybertron. He sat with his head crooked and his eye's half closed. Something here, was wrong.

Quest

The computers voice rang out in the vessel.

"Freighter within range. Bringing subjects out of Stasis."

With that, the computer brought the three predicons back into the world. They each sat up slowly and listened to the computers progress report on the freighter.

"Two lifesigns onboard. Warning, fuel usage system in target vessel damaged. Explosion hazard warning in effect."

OmagaPrime sighed. "I'll take the com. That ship is dangerous, and we don't want a sceen this close to Autobot space." He walked over to the helm and grabbed the com.

"OmagaPrime to Predicon freighter. Hey Ham, its me."

HamsterTron recognized the voice and glanced over to the com.

"Hey Ham-Man, this is OmagaPrime. Thats right, the guy you shot back eight years ago. What are ya doing with that big hunk o' junk over there?" OmagaPrime mock-negosiated. "Now, I want you to stop that peice of slag, turn it around, and follow us back to Decepticon space. Lets say we forget about all that stuff back on the planet. How about it?"

HamsterTron looked with emotion at the com system. He grabbed the control stick and stopped the freighter.
"OmagaPrime was gonna lose, along with other doomed bots."

"Yes, but Sunflash, NightLiona, and I are still alive. Actually, we've got RampageX right here. He's been reprogramed. Here he is." OmagaPrime turned the com over to RampageX.

"Hamster, I see you hav-" He was cut off by a sharp jolt in the ship.

"What the?" Soundwav said, standing up quickly as the ship groaned with another impact.

OmagaPrime looked down at the sensors. "The wacko is ramming us! With that damaged fuel system he'll kill us both!" He looked down into the com. "What's with the ramming Hamstertron?"

"HamsterTron almost killed by Rampage-bot, me not let that happen again!" The ship rammed yet again.

Suddenly, the ramming stopped, and all was quiet.
"Its stopped..." Soundwav said, instinctivly with his blaster drawn.

"He's up to something..." OmagaPrime muttered and looked down at the sensors.

"He's boarding the ship! Quick! Set weapons for st-ugn!" Prime was cut short by an ion blast hammering him in the back.
Soundwav quickly turned and fired a volley of energy which sent Hamstertron flying into the wall.

From the ground, Hamstertron looked up and fired a partical blast, catching Rampage in the face, then lept up.
With his eye's damaged, Rampage fired blindly. The mass of lasers hammered straight into the neck of OmagaPrime, who was in the midst of recovering. He fell in stasis lock on the ground.
"Stop shooting! You'll puncture the hull!" Soundwav shouted, but it was too late. A spare ion blast hammered hard into the side of the ship, causing fire to break out. Seeing the fire, Hamstertron retreated in terror to the freighter.
Rampage and Soundwav followed, leaving the form of OmagaPrime on the floor.

HamsterTron stopped in the middle of the long tube which connected the two vessles. He waited for the two to appear in the passage and opened fire, forcing them to back away. One of the ion blasts burned into the side of the tube, promicing to make a hole soon. Knowing this, Soundwav started running insanly toward the old freighter. He was able to just dive in when the hole burned in and the vacuum sucked outward. Not knowing what to do, RampageX was sucked into the vacuum of space with a loud slurping noise. Hamstertron was almost sucked out, but was close to the latch of the freighter and was able to slip in.
The two looked at each other and scrammbled up to grab they're weapons, unfortunitly, the energy guns were sucked away in the vacuum.
Soundwav suddenly heard a bleeping from the security systems of the freighter. He ran to check it, and found the fuel leak to be at critical. The ship was going to blow at any minute. His mouth gaped open and he turned to HamsterTron.

"This ship is going to explode!" He yelled.

Hamstertron simply nodded dumbly.

Thinking quickly, Soundwav grabbed a large peice of sheet metal from the wall and opened the door into the passage. The vacuum sucked the metal from his hands. Luckily, it was large enough to clog the hole momentarily. They both bolted into the passage into the other ship. The metal strained and started to cave in. Just as they reached the ship, it gave way and the vacuum opened again. Hamstertron struggled to get the door closed, but couldn't in time to stop the stasis locked OmagaPrime from getting sucked out the door and into the coldness of space.
Thinking fast, HamsterTron ran to put the fire out. Soundwav ran over to the controls and threw them into full throttle. Just as the vessel started to pull away, the old freighter erupted into flames. The fire licked out into space in a huge ball of flame. The vessel was engulfed momentarily, straining its sheild and burning its armor. Then, though scarred and beaten, it pulled away into space, still barely intact.

* * *

Days past. Those on the predicon homeworld were begining to wonder about the progress of the simple mission. Knowing this, Megatron opened a channel to the lab containing Sunflash and NightLiona. They both drew to attention and looked at the screen.

"My predicons, how is the progress on the clone?" He opened.

"Just about completed Megatron. It shall be done in a matter of hours." NightLiona answered.

"Well, no. It may have to be delayed. I have a mission for you both." Megatron imformed.
They both stood waiting, and he continued.

"The ship with OmagaPrime, Rampage, and Soundwav should have returned long ago. I need you to fly to the delta sector and inspect what happened."

"Yes sir, we're on it." Sunflash said with a sigh.

The image of Megatron disappeared.

"We're taking the project with us, agreed?" NightLiona nodded, and they left the lab toward the flight hanger.

* * *

The two predicons stood in the flight hanger in front of the large vessel. It is said that they constructed it themselves, so they were free to use it as they pleased. They finished loading the science pod into the cargo bay and got in.

In the cockpit, they sat ready to take off. Both started pushing buttons and pulling levers.

"I hate to say it, but I've got a bad feeling 'bout this." Sunflash said.

NightLiona nodded in agreement. Soon after they exited the hanger, they threw the ship into hyperspace.

As the ship drifted through the hyper-charged particals of mid-space, the two put the final touches on they're project in the lab. NightLiona turned to Sunflash.

"Do you remember Hamstertron?" She asked.

"Well, vaguly. It was eight years ago, after all. I knew him for a short time before he went psycho. Not much to tell, he was a normal bot, just like everyone else. Then he went crazy and killed Air and almost killed Omaga." He replied.

"I know, he killed my best friend. Well, we think he killed her. We never exactly found the body or even the ship for that matter." She said.

"You can't possibly think she's still alive." Sunflash reasoned.

"You never know, I just hanging on to the benifit of the doubt." She added.

"Yes well, if she still is alive, then there'll be 2 Airazors, cause this one's just about done."

NightLiona was about to say something when a small thud was felt again the hull as they pulled out of hyperspace. They both headed towards the helm to see what it was. What it was shocked and amused them.

"RampageX? Heh heh, if ya ask me he's never looked better. That jerk always had a grudge against me..." She muttered.

"He's alive!" Sunflash said amazed, watching RampageX's eye's slowly blink as he floated by. "We've gotta bring him in." As he turned to the tractor controls, he stopped when he heard NightLiona gasp.

"Omaga!" She said, watching the motionless bot float by. "Quick! Draw him in!" They both hammered down on the tractor comtrols.

"Looks like Hamster may be up to his old tricks..." Sunflash said grimly. "Where's Sound though? I don't see him."

"Well, be thankfull. Maybe Sound is still on the ship." She said.

"Lets hope so." Sunflash said, finishing the tractor. "C'mon, to the hanger." They both took off.

* * *

When they got there they saw two non-moving predicons. RampageX still twitched around a small bit. OmagaPrime lay very still.
They both ran towards them, medical scanners ready. Sunflash ran his over OmagaPrime. Nothing showed up on the device.

NightLiona ran hers over RampageX. It showed his vital signs were still strong and working, thanks to his immortal spark. Although, this had been the first time NightLiona had ever seen RampageX in a state of weakness. She relished every minute.

"Umm...Omaga is gone." Sunflash sighed.

NightLiona blinked hard. "Are you sure?"

"Yeah...he's gone I'm afraid." Said, breathing heavily.

NightLiona stood up and punched her palm.

"That hamster killed Air. He killed Omaga. Who knows, he might even have killed Soundwav! That rodent is dead."

"No, our orders are to retrieve the team and find what happened." Sunflash reasoned.

NightLiona's eye's burned with fire. "I don't care. I've lost too many friends to that vermin. Throw this scrap bucket into high gear and find that ship. We're going on a little vermin hunt." She commanded.

Sunflash gulped and said a simple "Yes ma'am" They both burst out laughing.

Hamstertron stood shivering in the corner of the helm, unarmed. His rusted body seemed frail and old, compared to the new technology.

"Why Sound-bot not kill Hamstertron?" He asked.

"Thats not my mission." Soundwav said calmly. "I'm taking you back to the Predicon High Counsel. You need a little time in the CR chamber." He said, looking over his shoulder as he tried to repair the circitry of the main controls.

"No! How many times Hamstertron have to tell strange Sound-Bot? We going to Cybertron, Hamstertron gonna assassinate Maximal bot and gain glory back!" He shouted from the corner.

"For the last time, you don't need to. Cybertron is hundreds of Lightyears from here, it would take days to get there, even if we could get this thing working again." Soundwav repeated himself.

Suddenly, a large blip appeared on the barly working sensors. "Wow, finally." Soundwav said. He opened a Com channel. "Soundwav to decepticon vessel. I have the protoform in my custody, need pick up."


NightLiona grabbed the Com. "Roger that Soundwav, I see your still kicking." She laughed. "We found your drifting friends."

"Rampage and Omaga? How are they doing?" Soundwav asked.

"RampageX is fine, Omaga...well, Omaga didn't make it." She replied.

There was a silence. "I'm sorry to hear that. I know he was your friend. Permission to board your vessel? This one is no good. Took too many hits."

"Negative Sound, we're coming over there. We've got business to take care of with a certian rodent." NightLiona said, letting go of the com.

"What? No...Um..Negative. You can't damage the protoform. I have my orders." Soundwav's words fell on closed ears.

Sunflash opened a duct which to pass through to the other vessel. "Now ready to board." He said. "But hold on, I need to do something."

Not listening, NightLiona crossed into the other ship.

"Release your prisoner to us!" NightLiona ordered, her gun out.

Soundwav stood. "I'm afraid I can't do that. I have my orders to return this protoform to the pred home planet."

"Consider your orders changed! Give us the vermin!" She ordered.

Hamstertron staggered up. "You NightLiona? You changed...Hamstertron recognize you though."

NightLiona turned and pointed her gun at the unarmed predicon. "You slimy peice of slag! You killed Omaga! You killed Air! You killed Kabu!" She would have shot if Soundwav had not stood in front of her.

"Don't make me shoot you Sound! I will! Don't make me!" She shouted.

"Night, listen. He didn't exactly kill them. Kabu linked with his data tracks, and something happened. The freighter exploded with him knocked out onboard. Omaga was an accident. A hole was shot into the passage and he was sucked out into space. It wasn't anyone's fault. As for Air...well...that was eight years ago! People change!"

"Not when they're floating through space in stasis lock, they don't!" She shouted.

"Noo...Hamstertron changed! Hamstertron data tracts repaired while in space! Logic still be fine, acording to Hamstertron anyway." Hamstertron glowered.

"It doesn't work that way!" A new voice said from behind. They all turned and looked to see the very form of the Transmetal 2 Dark Airazor. "The vermin killed me without malice. Not even the most sufisticated CR chambers on the decepticon homeworld could correct his logic and instincts. I doubt that eight years of being in frozen stasis could have done anything."

"Air!" NightLiona said, embrasing her friend. "Your back!"

Dark Airazor laughed. "Yeah, I guess I am. Sunflash filled me in, Leutenant!"

"Heh, yeah I guess I am a bit diferant now. But so is everything else.." NightLiona went on to explain what had happened in the last eight years. The chatted like the old friends they were, all anger forgoten.

Soundwav sighed with relief.

Sunflash grined openly from behind Dark Airazor.

What they did not see however, was the ancient hamster sneaking up behind Soundwav and snatching his gun from the ground.

"Hamstertron not go back to Decepticon counsel, Hamstertron go to Cybertron..." He whispered to himself.

Using the handle of his blaster, the bot cracked Soundwav in the side of the neck, knocking him unconsous. Then quickly, he grabed one of the energon tranquilizers he had been given eight years ago and threw it into Sunflash's forehead.

Dark Airazor and NightLiona both turned in shock and drew they weapons. "Drop it Hamstertron! Your outnumbered!" Dark Airazor shouted.

"Ohhh! But Hamstertron just take out two of funny-bots! What make girly-bot think me can't take out two more." He cackled.

"Because we're ready! Now drop the gun or we'll turn you to scrap!" NightLiona answered.
Hamstertron appeared to think about this for a moment, then appeared to be setting his gun down. But as soon as his hand reached the steel floor, he pulled Soundwav up and and put the blaster up to his head.

"Now Hamstertron have hostage! Now Hamstertron in charge! Hamstertron say girley-bots put down guns and kick over to Hamstertron!"

NightLiona and Dark Airazor looked at each other, suprized that even Hamstertron would sink as low as taking a hostage.

"Ok Vermin, just don't do anything stupid." Dark Airazor said, as they both kicked they're guns over.

"Good! Now Hamstertron say you back away and leave Hamstertron ship! You not take Hamstertron back to Predicons! They banish me! They kill me!" Hamstertron ranted.

NightLiona and Dark Airazor would have done so, if they had not saw something. Soundwav quietly opened his eyes and winked at them with a small grin, he then faked unconsousness again.

"And Hamstertron pilot this ship to Cybertron!Then Hamstertron assassina-ahh!" Hamstertron was cut off by the hostage fliping him over his shoulder onto the ground. Soundwav kicked Hamstertron's gun away and slid NightLiona and Dark Airazor's over to they're owners. He then drew his own. All three predicons kept they're guns aimed on the old protoform on the ground.

"No one takes me hostage!" Soundwav shouted.

"Yeah, and no one threatens us with hostages!" NightLiona said.

"And no one but you would ever stoop as low as to take a hostage!" Dark Airazor said.

"Ok, I'll help Sunflash. You guys get the rodent to the other ship so we can finally get the hell outta here!" Leutenant NightLiona commanded.

They would have complied, if a huge predicon had not suddenly burst onto the ship, guns blaring. The red-eyed RampageX rushed onto the ship, ready for war. Once again, it seemed that something had gone wrong with his programing.

Endgame

Before they could turn to defend themselves, RampageX sent Soundwav and NightLiona sprawling to the floor, engulfed in gunfire. Dark Airazor turned and launched a small missile from her shoulder into his face. It impacted, making him fall back momentarily to recover. Soon however, he was back up and spraying.
"Why Rampage?" Soundwav yelled.
The rampaging Rampage said nothing.
Dark Airazor, being the only one standing, opened up with everything she had. Even with her new Transmetal 2 technology however, she had little effect. Rampage X laughed in her face and threw a curving punch into the side of her head. She toppled over temporarily.
As he turned to attack someone else, Hamstertron grabbed onto his legs, making him lose his ballence temporarily. Soundwav and NightLiona sat up and fired off blasts at the large crab. It teetered monentarily, then unleashed a series of missiles at the rodent-robot below him, sending it to get hammered away into the wall. RampageX then quickly turned and fired a volley of gunfire at Soundwav, knocking him away also.
NightLiona lept up and onto the back of the chaotic monster, trying to cut off circulattion to his head. However, the large Predicon simply grabed her from behind and flung her into Soundwav, sending them sprawling. He cackled at the display of chaos.
Dark Airazor shook her head from dizziness. She raised an arm and fired another missile into Rampage's back. Enraged, the Crab turned and sent her drilling into the wall with a huge blast of Optic Lasers.
With all enimies around him disabled, RampageX snickered and went to finish off his adversairies. He would have then impaled Dark Airazor with an energon sword, if a huge missile had not hammered him suddenly. His whole body shuttered with the impact. Shaking with sudden pain, he turned slowly to see the form of KabuHex down on one knee holding the largest Bazooka he had ever seen on his shoulder. The newly appearing Predicon snickered and reloaded.
In fury, RampageX charged. With suprising speed, he knocked the Bazooka from KabuHex's hands and lifted him up by his neck.
The struggling Predicon gurgled as his breathing was cut off. He would have choked to death if yet another missile hadn't impacted into the back of Rampage's head. NightLiona blew the smoke from her launcher, enheartened at the sight of KabuHex alive. Before RampageX could react, she launched three more missiles, stuning him.
Hamstertron twitched from damage in the corner.
Soundwav started to get to his feet, as did NightLiona. They both kept aim on the Rampage clone. In the other corner, Dark Airazor struggled to get up, having taking heavy damage.
RampageX staggered about, apparently damaged. He slowly toppled to the ground.
NightLiona and Soundwav walked causiously over, keeping they're aim. She looked down at him and spat.

"This damn thing has caused me nothing but grief for the last eight years." She said, looking down.

Soundwav nodded.

"C'mon, we've gotta get everyone into the cruiser, we're outta here." She said.

"I think not!" RampageX bellowed, leaping up, spraying lasers, missiles, and gunfire in every direction. Through the whole time, he had just been playing possum.
NightLiona was hit in the shoulder by a missile and covered in gunfire. She fell back into the helm. Soundwav and engulfed in laserfire, being cut open and torn apart in many places. He staggered back and fell over, then lay motionless.
Things took a turn for the worse however, when a missing missile struck the already damaged wall of the ship. The computer blared out.

"Ships destruction emminent. All personel must evacuate immediatly. Hull breached."

RampageX laughed insanely until the enraged KabuHex lept up behind him and started beating him mersylessly apon the head and shoulders. RampageX staggered a bit.
Then, the tranquilized Sunflash began to awaken and heard the sirens. He moaned and staggered up. "Everybody outta the pool!" He said, still a bit drugged.
No one needed to be reminded, as the computer continued to blare the warning. The almost crippled Soundwav stumbled over and grabbed Hamstertron's leg and dragged. NightLiona helped Dark Airazor up and they limped toward the exit. Sunflash stood and watched the four enter the cruiser. He yelled over to the brawling pair.

"Kabu! The ship's going to blow! Get outta there!" He bellowed.

"Ha! Don't need to tell me twice." KabuHex said, headbutting RampageX then running toward the exit.

As a final insult, Rampage X fired a missile at the closing doors. It impacted into KabuHex's back, sending him sprawling into the cruiser. Sunflash looked at the Protoform from behind the closing doors. He yelled one last statement to the doomed protoform.

"For Wavefury and Onyx, traitor!"

As the cruiser pulled away from the ship with the crew of Sunflash, NightLiona, Hamstertron, Soundwav, KabuHex, and Dark Airazor, the ship they had just been on erupted into a huge explosion just as the freighter had, only larger due to its more modern design. However, the cruiser pulled away clean as it immediatly jumped into hyperspace, heading for the Predicon homeworld.

* * *

The six predicons stood before the high counsel along with Hellscream. Megatron confronted all of them, briefing them on their mission.

"High Commander Megatron, I have the results of the mental repair in the CR chamber." Hellscream started.

"Continue." Commanded Megatron.

"Yes, the new chamber model was able to almost completly recover the ancient protoforms data tracks and logic circits. Hamstertron is now completely up to date with modern technology and politics." He continued.

"Almost, you say?" Megatron inquired.

"Um...yes..well-" Hellscream was cut off.

"Hell-bot still say Hamstertron have vocabulary problem, not that Hamstertron speak wrong or anything." Hamstertron interrupted.

Megatron sighed and blinked. "Very well, as for KabuHex. It was said that he was believed dead."

"I think I can explain that." KabuHex stepped forward. "Y'see, when I tried to link with the hamster's data tracks, I was flooded with obsolete data. Data in that form wasn't compatable with ours, so it sent me into stasis lock. Then, I woke up and stumbled over to the other ship when Soundwav and Hamstertron came onboard. There, I fell back into stasis lock until my internals could figure out what the hell to make of the ancient data it had received. When it was all sorted out, I woke up in the middle of a war zone! So, I ran into the cruiser and headed for the armory. I grabbed the biggest Bazooka I could find, and well, the rest is history."

"Yeees, well. And, as for the matter of Rampage X?" Megatron asked.

"Yes, according to what they have told me, the clone of Protoform X once again turned on them. It attacked them as it did on the planet. Between the six of them, they were able to trap him onboard of the exploding ship. To our beliefe, RampageX was terminated." Hellscream explained.

"Blast!" Megatron yelled. "That was one of our powerfulest protoforms! As for the ship, we could have gone without losing that also." He sighed. "Very well. The restored unit Hamstertron shall be re-instated into the predicons, into the same unit as the other five. he shall be put under heavy probation, and be terminated at the very thought of trechory." he looked around at them. "Overall decent work. Now, you shall return to your quarters and get some rest. Until your next assignment, dismissed!"

NightLiona, Sunflash, Hamstertron, KabuHex, Soundwav, Dark Airazor, and Hellscream turned and went seperate ways toward they're quarters.
