Ep. 6: Tooth and Blade Pt.3
Written by Osiris Prime
On Cybertron. Lights flicker in what used to be an energon bar. Tarantulas
holds an old can
of malt energon. He pop's the top and takes a sip. He then walks to
the back wall and push's
a signed photo of G1 Megatron. A part of the wall slides open. He walks
over and through
the opening.
Outside the Citadel the Vehicons and Maximals battle, inside however,
Megatron views the
construction of a new Predacon body:
MT: Soon that which I was too afraid to do shall be done, for I now
see beast modes are not
as bad I once thought but organics are. A beast mode purged of organics
would be near
unstoppable and if I were to fall I would need someone who could destroy
the Maximals.
Now my ace will be played....Primus help us all if it turns out to
be a joker.
Not far from Cybertron is the Predacon stealth ship flying toward
cybertron at warp speed.
On board two Maximals sit at the helm draped in shadows. They sit their
eyes glowing with
power. Cybertron shows up on their scanners. In a gruff voice one of
them says: Destiny
awaits us, brother.
.
On Cybertron a fierce battle is being fought outside the citadel. The
first to fall was Nightscream, at the hands of the new bomber jet now known
as Shadow. Nightscream's head was brutally crushed and torn from it's body
by Shadow's powerful grip. Seaker was next to fall at the hands of
Thrust and the race car now known to be Fast Brake.
All Thrust had to do was fire one shot and Seaker fell to the ground Fast Brake's flame thrower saw to the rest burning her alive till there was nothing left but some charred metal Osiris Prime was able to get Rattrap to the citadel door but now faces Starscream as Rattrap try's to hack into the locking program. Starscream and Osiris were able to block each others blasts with ease and now fight fist to fist, Starscream throws the first punch, Osiris Blocks and lands a strong right to Starscream's chin, then a left to the chest, the using his boosters flies up and knees Starscream in the waist, then slamming his fist down on Starscream's back sends him crashing into the ground Osiris lands next to him slamming his foot down bouncing Starscream off of the ground then kicking him hard knocks him into stasis lock:
Osiris: Rattrap how much longer?!?!?
RT: Just a few more seconds. Tell Optimus to get over here!
Osiris: Right. ***Optimus, Rattrap says the locks will be down in a
few seconds. Get over here!***
Optimus: ***On my way. Hope you don't mind me taking out a Vehicon
or two on my way.***
Osiris:*** Not at all***
Optimus charges up energy on his right arm, slams Obsidian to the ground
and releases the
energy, sending Obsidian in to stasis lock. Optimus powers up
his jets and races towards the
citadel doors.
Cheetor and Balckarachnia Fight with Stryka. Stryka standing in robot mode shoots at Cheetor as he runs back and forth. Stryka shooting at Blackarachnia from time to time to keep her at bay behind a bench of sorts. Cheetor runs behind the bench as well.
CT: Blackarachnia, I want you to fire two strings of Cyber Webbing at
Stryka one right at
her the other so it goes past her. got it?
BA: Yeah, no sweat.
Cheetor runs out from behind the bench, runs straight at Stryka the
jumps up and over her as
Blackarachnia fires her cyber webbing at Stryka. Stryka blasts the
first strand of webbing
before it hits her and the other goes past her. Cheetor having landed
behind Stryka grabs
both ends of the webbing that got past Stryka and loops it around Stryka
and pulling her to
the ground. Blackarachnia then shoots some more webbing that clogs
up Stryka's guns and
sticks her to the ground.
CT: Good work Blackarachnia.
Optimus Meets Osiris and Rattrap at the citadel doors.
Optimus: Well?
RT: Got it. Optimus the doors are unlooked...but they won't open.
Osiris, Optimus: Not a problem.
Osiris and Optimus Charge up their weapons and fire them at the doors.
When the smoke
clears the doors are blown wide open.
Optimus: Alright you guys take out the rest of the Vehicons then come
on in.
Osiris: Right.
Optimus runs through the doors.
In the citadel in the thrown room, Megatron looks over the new body.
MT: Yes this will do nicely. Now I can only the sparks have enough power.
Optimus bursts into the room.
MT: Ahh, Optimus, good of you to drop by. Your just in time to see the
birth of the ultimate
Transformer!(Megatron points to the new body, then raises his hand
and a spark rises up and
goes into the new body)
MT: Yeeessss.
Computer: Spark Energy is insufficient. More Spark energy needed.
MT: What!
Optimus: It's over Megatron.
MT: For you, yes! Computer, launch program, Optimal Extraction!
10 Spark extractor arms surround Optimus.
MT: Yesss
Optimus tries to fly up but is grabbed by the arms and his Spark is extracted.
MT Yeesss.
The spark extractors Scan the room one more time they get to Megatron
and scan him...
they rush at Megatron, Megatron jumps back but 2 grab him from behind
the other grab him
as well then one moves up to his chest and starts to extract his spark.
The last thing he thinks
is: how can this be hap.... As he goes into stasis lock The Spark extractors
take the two sparks and put them into the new body.
Outside the citadel the Maximals have stasis locked the rest of the Vehicons.
Osiris: We should get in there and give Optimus a hand...if he needs one that is.
As Osiris says that a huge energy beam blast through the top of the
citadel and then to the
Maximals horror it hit's one of Cybertron's moons, the moon is blown
to paces.
RT: Optimus!
Rattrap runs into the citadel, while the other maximals stare in disbelief.
CT: By Primus what was that?!?
Osiris I don't know...
Where we left off Inside the citadel:
The new Transformer comes online
The new Transformer: I am Gigatron, destroyer of Cybertron!
Gigatron charges up energy in one hand points his hand straight up and
fires. It blasts through
the top of the citadel making a large hole. Gigatron looks down
and sees all the sparks in their holders, He opens his mouth vary wide
till it's about 7" by 7" little swirls of energy start to form a vortex.
The sparks start getting sucked out of their holders and up in to the vortex. Rattrap runs into the room just as the last of the sparks get sucked into the vortex and into Gigatron.
RT: By Primus....
Gigatron: Ah Rattrap, you carry much pain....
RT: Who are you?!
Gigatron: I am Gigatron and I can help you.
RT: What did you do with Optimus?
Gigatron: I know what you want and it will be so.
RT: What the pit are you talking about!?
Gigatron smiles at Rattrap, his right hand glows red he points it at
Rattrap, Rattrap's spark is
ripped from his Body by Gigatron from 30 feet away. Gigatron holds
Rattrap's spark in his
hand,
Gigatron: Computer, body P:13.
A tube slides down and what looks like Fast Brake's body, only gray
in color and it's blurred
like a proto form, he puts Rattrap's spark into it, it flash's and
changes colors and it's face
becomes un blurred.
Rattrap wakes up in his new body.
RT: What the pit did you just do to me.......
Rattrap see's his old body, limp and dead.
RT: I am so gonna kick your skid plate and...
Rattrap points at Gigatron and see's his hand..
RT: I'm in robot mode.... I'm a robot! Rattrap Transform!
Rattrap Transforms into his Car mode.
RT: I'm a car. I'm a CAR!....and I understand....
Gigatron: Get the others and get to a ship.
RT: Thank you...Old friend.
Rattrap speeds off out of the citadel. Gigatron transforms into his Jet Mode and flies up through the hole he made
Outside the citadel.
CT: My Primus. How could this happen?..
WP: Oh Waspinator going to die!
Osiris: Shut up Waspinator.
WP: [gulp] Waspinator shutting up..
Gigatron flies out of the citadel.
CT: Who the pit is that?!
Rattrap comes racing out of the citadel.
Osiris: Watch out!
Dinobot runs and jumps on top of Rattrap, Rattrap brakes really hard
throwing Dinobot off of him.
RT: Don't shoot!!
CT: Rattrap?!
Osiris: What happened to you?
RT: Gigatron gave me a new body.
Osiris: And who's Gigatron?
Rattrap transforms and points up at Gigatron.
RT: That's Gigatron.
CT: Rattrap he just blew up one of cybertron's moons!
RT: Yeah about that...We need to get to a ship..Fast
Osiris: Rattrap?!
RT: Well he's umm, gonna blow up cybertron. But it's not what you think.
CT: What! You should've .. I can't... You
RT: Anyway, there's a ship one click away. If anyone want's to join
me do it now!
Rattrap transforms into his car mode and speeds off.
BA: Osiris...What do we do.
WP: We all die!!! Waspinator dies!!!
Osiris Charges up one of his shoulder blaster's to low and fires it
at Waspinator, Waspinator
get's knocked back.
Osiris: Shut up!
Osiris: Alright, you all follow Rattrap to the ship I'll try to stop
Gigatron!
BA: No Silver...Osiris there's no way in the pit you can stop him.
Osiris: But I have to try...
Osiris: Now get out of here!
Osiris Jet's up to face Gigatron
Inside the citadel Megatron's body lay cold and sparkless. Or so everyone thought. A spark rises out of Megatron's body.
Spark: did they really think I would let myself die? Fools, I can not
die. Oh well Optimus
does have a habit of ending up with the wrong spark... What made them
think that MY spark
would be the one being controlled. That the other fool had any power
over me. Ha! Maximals are so easily manipulated.
The spark floats over to a door in the wall. The door opens and a body that can barely be seen stands there waiting for it's spark.
Now to reclaim my body.......
At Tarantulas' lair.
TS: I can't believe he did it, it's the only way my lair would be here....Crazy
son of an Autobot, really did it...
Tankor rolls in
Tankor: So it is as we feared back on earth..
TS: Yes.
Tankor: Do we know the next step of his plan?
TS: No...
Tankor: We should need to leave now. Someone called Gigatron is going
to blow up this planet .
TS: Yes we should. Come with me. Tarantulas walks off down a hall.
In one of The chambers of Tarantulas' lair two gray pods stand upright in tubes that go straight to the surface of the planet.
TS: Look here.
Tarantulas points to a computer screen.
Tankor: Is that what I think it is?
TS: Yes, it's an SI class ship with two X class sparks on board.
Tankor: X class, I thought only two where in existence.
TS: Two? hmpf more like five.
Tankor: Five? That would mean that Project-X kept going even after
we left.
TS: That's right.
Tankor: Who are the other sparks?
TS: These new ones I don't know and you don't need to know the rest.
Tankor: I supervised the Project. I have a right to know who is was
used on!
TS: When you left the Project you gave up that knowledge. But if you
really needed to know...you should have asked Primal.
Tankor: What?!
Tarantulas smiles.
TS: And they thought you were the smart one. Now if you don't mind
we have some sparks to extract.
Tankor: Why do we need to get to the sparks?
TS: It's simple, we need their bodies. They wouldn't put X class sparks
in just any body now
would they?
Tankor: And you know how to shut their sparks down?
TS: Absolutely, Brother.
Tarantulas and Tankor step into the pods. The pods get shot up at mind bending speeds towards the incoming ship
On that ship.
Voice one: Look at this, could someone have gotten a lock even though
we're cloaked?
Voice two: No it's moving to fast for missiles. But maybe.........
BLAM! BOOM!
Voice one: The hull is breached!
Voice two: But the gauge says the pressure is fine.........B-Pods!!!
In the back of the ship the pod are half way through the hull. They
drop Tarantulas and
Tankor out Inside the ship.
TS: Their sparks will only be weak for a few seconds. Do you have the
extractors?
Tankor: right here.
TS: Then lock and load.
Tarantulas pulls out a gold ball from his armor
TS: Now!
Tarantulas and Tankor rush to cockpit knocking in the door. The two
transformer inside stand up and start to pull their guns. but it is too
late, Tarantulas had thrown the gold ball at them. It flashed and the two
transformer fell to the floor.
TS: Now Tankor!
Tankor uses the spark extractor on the first Transformer then the second.
Tankor: Now let us upgrade our selves.
Both their sparks leave their bodies and move into the new bodies.
Tarantulas: WE should get this ship out of here before the planet gets
blown up.
Tankor: Decepticons Forever!
The ship turns around and flies off.
A click from the citadel, the rest of the Maximals Are waiting with
Rattrap at the ship for
Osiris, If he makes it back...
At the citadel Gigatron transformed into robot mode as if he was waiting
for Osiris. Osiris
flew up to Gigatron and they faced off.
Osiris: I can't let you do it!
Gigatron: DO you think you could stop me?
Osiris: I have to at least try!
Osiris Charges up energy in his fists.
Gigatron: Is that the power the Matrix gave you. How weak.
Osiris: It'll be enough to take you down!
Gigatron: No it won't.
Gigatron raises his hand and points it at Osiris.
Gigatron: You used to be so wise Silverbolt.
Osiris: The Name's Osiris! Get used to it!
Gigatron: No.
Gigatron's hand glows bright red.
Gigatron: Separate.
The red glow goes from his hand to Osiris' body. Osiris' body
glows for a moment then Silverbolt's old fuzor body is pulled out from
Osiris' Silverbolt's spark goes with him as he fall to the ground
weak and beaten. Silverbolt's last thought before going into stasis
lock is: Why..
Up above Gigatron looks at the Osiris Prime body still floating in
mid air.
Gigatron: Now the body is worthy of the name Prime. It's big but fast and could hold more Power then mine.... Cybertron will need him...
Gigatron opens his mouth and all of the sparks he sucked up earlier
rushed out of his mouth
and began to form one huge spark. There were hundreds of sparks all
forming into one spark. The spark the floated over and into the Osiris
Prime Body. It glowed so bright that Gigatron had to look away. When it
was done Osiris Prime looked at Gigatron.
Osiris' Prime: Your death will not be in vain. We will find it.
And with that Osiris drops down and grabs Silverbolt and races off to the ship to join the others.
Below right next to the citadel Starscream's body is being dragged in
to the citadel by to red
arms with black claws.. Moments later a small ship is launched from
inside the citadel out into
space. Gigatron looks at it but think that it must be a glitch. Gigatron
then Transforms in to
his hand mode and starts to glow brighter and brighter. At the ship
with the other Maximals Osiris Prime flies up and drops Silverbolt down
to Blackarachnia and lands.
Osiris': Let's get the Slag out of here..
The Maximals all get onboard the ship. The ships starts up and lifts
off and shoots off into space.
Onboard Cheetor asks Osiris What happened. Osiris Just smiled at him
and said it's time to
go home.
Just then back on the planet Gigatron's hand mode reach's full charge and fires a large beam at the planet destroying it and himself. As he fades away he knows he has a place in the matrix.
In space onboard the Citadel Shuttle, Starscream's body is being fixed
by a repair drone, a
dark figure looms over him.
Voice: Poor Maximal scum. So eager to believe that there is still hope
for them, for cybertron. And now Rattrap and Osiris Prime will lead them
to Cybertron and to peace. Ha! Who do they think showed them the way.
Now my plan has but one step left and my deception will be complete. Not
even Tarantulas and his Brother have any clue what my true plan is.....
Starscream stands up now fully repaired.
Voice: For that Planet was just a test, yeesss, to see if it could be
done...... Now I know it
can be.
Starscream: A test. Of what??
Voice: A test to see if cybertron could be built from a organic base.
Starscream: But what of the real Cybertron?
Voice: Destroyed long ago, by the only threat left to our race, a threat
that will be dealt with,
a threat that not even the Primes knew of......Earth!
The End??
