DARK STORM RISING CHAPTER 12
THEY GAVE HELL A NEW NAME:
DUE TO THE SIZE AND COMPLEXITY OF DSR CHAPTER 12, IT WAS NECESSARY TO BREAK IT INTO 13 SUBCHAPTERS.,
WARNING:: ABSTRACT PSYCHOLOGICAL SCENES, DISTURBING VISUALS AND VIOLENCE,.
The Autobots are trapped on an abandoned Quintesson science station with no means of escape. They awaken to scientific speculation, communicative isolation and experimental damnation. And Rusti encounters an invisible friend. |
With both Primes on the absentee list, Magnus once again takes charge. As the Autobots tend to their sick and wounded, Rusti and Cloudstreaker journey through utter darkness to rejoin them. Meanwhile, Sunstreaker's symptoms worsen. |
Cloudstreaker begins to investigate a potential traitor among the Autobots while Rusti, hell-bent to find the Primes, walks through a world of hidden secrets and psychic assaults. And the Virus is hunting. |
While Ultra Magnus deals with mutiny rising on one hand and too many wounded people on the other, Jazz and Cyclonus work together to crack an encoded transmission sent to Bare Anches. |
Several witnesses are called upon to testify on one Paratron's betrayal. Rusti finds herself slipping in and out of reality. |
Under a heated Viral influence, Rodimus carries out Redial's death sentence. The Virus lashes out; Rodimus, Galvatron and Prime disappear. Meanwhile, Sunstreaker's madness sets against his brother. |
News from across the quadrant reaches the Autobots and leaves them facing a bleak future. The Virus lands in the Quintesson central command building and the Autobots end up with a captive who might give them the information they need to escape. |
Stuck dealing with an infected Autobot Prime, Galvatron drags Rodimus through the science complex in search of a way back to Magnus and the other refugees. Too bad Rodimus is less than cooperative. Void isn't liking the Decepticon, either. |
Lost and alone, Optimus Prime wanders through the darkness, facing himself, his past and a future that vanishes with each dying moment. The question is, does he have anything worth fighting for? |
As Rusti slips further into a fevered madness, Paratron Delta goads her into questioning her allegiance with Optimus Prime. Having lost Sunstreaker in the bowels of Bare Anches, Sideswipe searches tirelessly and sickened by the things he finds. |
Kup, Arcee and Jacket descend into the third level of the science complex in search of the twins. Upon finding Sideswipe, they also unearth another Quintesson dirty secret, one that takes Arcee hostage. |
As Rusti slips further and further into Viral influence, the medical staff diagnose her with something entirely different; something entailing a horror and Croix Insepency. |
Facing one monster on a collision course with Bare Anches and dealing with another monster determined to end everything on the asteroid, the Autobots race time to take the one chance they have to save their leaders and escape death heading for them in two directions. |
