MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE
(Recap: The Fallen vs. Necros; Optimus Minor and his Autobots up against the Decepticons; and Starscream and Noisemaze have two Cyber Keys. How does it all go down?)
(Some guy flips a switch and everyone gets alien-abducted by Unicron)
(Boy, we're off to a great start)
(On Cybertron, which is now a wasteland, bots are getting pulled up left and right)
Starscream: All right, what happened?
Noisemaze: I... I don't know. This abduction wasn't supposed to happen until we found all of the Cyber Keys!
Starscream: So... now what?
Noisemaze: We must return to... my place, I guess you would call it... and find out what's going on! [Nice save, 'maze. Come on, tell Starscream how you really feel....]
(Elsewhere, Optimus Minor awakes in the care of Ratchet)
Ratchet: Hey, buddy! Wake up! It's me, Ratchet. You're in Iacon... or what's left of it.
Optimus Minor: R-Ratchet? Where's my team?
Ratchet: They're here, but still in stasis lock. We're still trying to wake them up.
Optimus Minor: What about Primal and Lio Convoy? And Omega Prime?
Ratchet: They've all vanished. There is a handful of us still here though.
Optimus Minor: Like who?
Ratchet: Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Hoist, Jazz....
Optimus Minor: And Ironhide?
Ratchet: He's dead. (He take him to where the others are) Here's everyone. Well, mostly. I'm still fixing the bots in the medbay....
Wheeljack: And spark knows who else is out there.
Prowl: And besides, does it matter? Whatever's abducting Transformers is probably unstoppable! [Well, actually you've stopped him before...]
Optimus Minor: So... we're giving up?
Prowl: Well, yeah.
Optimus Minor: THIS IS OUR HOME! OUR HOME! AND YOU'RE GIVING UP?!
Jazz: Kid's gotta point, Prowl. We must do somethin'.
Wheeljack: I am so glad you said that, Jazz. Why else would I've made these upgrades?
Jazz: Upgrades?! Dude! Why didn't you tell us?
Wheeljack: Omega Prime told me to keep it secret. No idea why.... but I'm sure they'll come in handy.
(Elsewhere, the Fallen crawls on the ground)
Necros Prime: Still standing?
The Fallen: Wh-who--?
Necros Prime: Good. (He blasts the Fallen away while laughing)
The Fallen: Cyclonus, Scourge, help me!
Necros Prime: They've left you, brother. And now, you shall die!
The Fallen: Not if I can help it.... RARGH! (They lung at each other, shooting out energy, and go kablooey!)
(Nearby, Cyclonus, Scourge, and Soundwave rejoin Megastorm)
Megastorm: And just what made you abandon him?
Soundwave: I could tell he was planning to abandon or destroy us.
Megastorm: So what's the plan now?
Cyclonus: I've signaled all remaining Decepticons to Chaar. We'll discuss further plans later.
Megastorm: To Chaar it is, then. Spinblade, ready our ship.
(Back on Cybertron, some Elite Guardsmen are huddling in an abandoned building)
Thunder Clash: Well?
Kup: Powerflash is dead. I found his body near Polyhex. Face it, Thunder Clash. Whoever's killing our men out there must be unstoppable.
???: Sir, I see someone approaching!
(The Autobots storm out with guns ready)
Ultra Trion: Wait! It's me! Ultra Trion!
Thunder Clash: Ultra Trion? Well, I'm glad to see you here, sir.
Ultra Trion: Likewise, do you know what's going on?
Thunder Clash: No, unfortunately. We were hoping you knew.
Ultra Trion: Unfortunately, I don't have the answer, Thunder Clash. I had just enough time to run as this... beam abducted Omega Prime and Avalon. I kept running until I saw Kup. I knew then there was an Autobot post here.
Blurr: It's great that you're here, but we need some sort of plan or we're all doomed!
Ultra Trion: Hmm... I might have an idea.
(Back in Iacon, the upgraded Autobots step out in Movie -- or Movie-esque -- forms, while Optimus Minor gets his dad's Cybertron form)
Wheeljack: And done! Now, once the others wake up, I'll up grade them, but for now, we can use these.
Jazz: "MT?"
Wheeljack: Mech Tech. Highly upgraded weapons. They should prove useful.
Jazz: Well, if only we had somethin to use them on....
(Suddenly, someone blasts into the base)
Razorclaw (the Universe dude, not G1): Allow us to serve that purpose... though I doubt you can defeat us!
(In space, Noisemaze and Starscream arrive at Unicron)
Noisemaze: Master! What is going on?! The abduction wasn't supposed to happen until--
Unicron: I was growing impatient, Sideways--
Starscream: "Sideways?"
Unicron: Anyway, I believe I can do without the keys. Besides... (we then see Thunderwing standing over Omega Prime's corpse, the Matrix in hand) Now that we have the Matrix, the Autobots -- and Cybertron -- don't stand a chance!
