HUNT OF THE DECEPTICONS
(On Cybertron, Rodimus Prime and the Autobots are driving around)
Bumblebee: So, Rodimus, what do we do once we find more Autobots?
Rodimus Prime: Once we find enough, we'll regroup at the base. I have a plan in mind.
(Ah, but little do they know that Laserbeak is spying on them! Ooo-oooh)
(Meanwhile, on Chaar)
Soundwave: Upgrades: Complete.
Megastorm: Well, Soundwave... this certainly is an improvement. In fact, I believe we're ready to return to Cybertron! Decepticons, transform... and attack!
(Back on Cybertron, Brawl is chasing after Jolt)
Brawl: Come back here, Auto-brat!
Jolt: Who're you callin' a brat?! You just asked for a shockin'!
Brawl: Bring it, kid! (He then proceeds to beat the snot out of Jolt)
(At this moment, Bumblebee and the others show up)
Bumblebee: What the-? Rodimus! Come see this! [Sure, wait for him to come over while your friend gets beat up. No one likes Jolt]
Jazz: Hey, Brawl!
Brawl: Eh?
Jazz: Calm down! [...that's, like, the lamest one-liner ever]
Brawl: Rargh! (He gets stomped on by Rodimus) Hey! I'm gonna pound ya' all into scrapme-! (Bumblebee shoots him in the back) I... I surrender...
Rodimus Prime: (grabs Brawl by the neck) Listen, Brawl... and listen closely. You're gonna tell us where your Decepticon camp is.
Brawl: What makes you think *ack* there's a camp?
Rodimus Prime: Where did you come from then? [well, you see, Roddy, the stork delivers the baby and...]
Brawl: All right, I'll show you. Follow me. ["After you stop strangling me, of course"]
(Meanwhile, on Animatron, the Maximals are walkin' around)
Cheetor: So, what exactly do we do, Prime?
Leo Prime: I don't know, Cheetor. My team and I were stranded here ever since the war. We tried contacting Cybertron, but couldn't get a signal.
Primal Major: And since our ship's damaged...
Leo Prime: We're stuck here. Forever.
(While the Maximals mope, Brimstone flies up to Nemesis Prime)
Brimstone: I see no sign of Flamus Prime or Gigatron.
Nemesis Prime: Then they're dead. Predacons, it's time to unite. We shall rule this world with an iron fist! And the Maximals SHALL FALL!
(Back on Cybertron, the Autobots are following Brawl)
Brawl: The camp is right around here... (They get there) Here it is. It's just comprised of me and the Combaticons.
Bumblebee: ...which forms that gestalt Bruticus.
Rodimus Prime: How do we know you're not leading us into a trap?
Jazz: I'll watch over him. You guys take care of them.
(The others jump down to confront the Combaticons)
Rodimus Prime: Surrender, 'Cons!
Onslaught: And why should we do that? It's over, isn't it? Our world is dead!
Rodimus Prime: And how should I know you're not attacking stray Autobots?
Onslaught: And why are you accusing us of that?
Rodimus Prime: (points to Brawl) Maybe your friend there can answer that.
Swindle: Brawl?!
Onslaught: Why you stupid little....
(The Combaticons then combine to form Bruticus, sans Brawl and is thus missing a leg)
Bruticus: I'll tear you all apart! Including you, Brawl! (He then starts smashing things)
Jolt: So how do we defeat this bozo?
Bumblebee: I have an idea.
(He then transforms and drives around, distracting Bruticus, allowing Jolt to fire a crossbow ('cos he has that now I guess) and bring the gestalt down)
Bumblebee: Got 'im.
Jazz: Nice going, Jolt! [You're the best ROTF Autobot ever!]
(Brawl tries to sneak away only for Sideswipe to stop him)
Sideswipe: Not so fast. You're not going anywhere.
(Meanwhile, across the universe, Megastorm sends a message to all Decepticons)
Megastorm: This is Megastorm to all Decepticons. The time has come to strike. No more will we hide and retreat. On this day, the Autobots will fall. You can trust your leader on that. Now... RISE UP!
(Elsewhere, on Cybertron, Fistfight (still in his GO-4 body) is fetching an energon cube while Shockwave skulks in an alleyway)
Fistfight: C'mere you little energon cube!
Shockwave: Fistfight, how can you eat in these conditions? Cybertron is dying. That Megastorm is launching a soon-to-fail strike... Wait... we still have Plan Zeta! [Leave it to Shockwave to always have a deus-evil-machina up his sleeve]
Fistfight: Plan Zeta?
Shockwave: You wouldn't understand. [Deus-evil-machinas are for grown ups only!] Come. We shall meet with this Megastorm.
(Back with the other Autobots in Iacon...)
Optimus Minor: How're Turborun and the others?
Wheeljack: All right, I think. But they'll take a while to wake up.
Prowl: Wheeljack, Skids and Tracks are up.
Wheeljack: Good, I'll go explain things to them.
Optimus Minor: Are there any Autobots who don't seem like they'll wake up?
Prowl: I think we may have lost Downshift... [hope Downshift isn't anyone's favorite 'cos I just killed him off-panel]
Ratchet: These are dark times, aren't they, Prowl?
Prowl: Yes, Ratchet. Yes, they are.
(Back with Ultra Trion and the Elite Guard)
Monstructor: Monstructor... awakens.
Thunder Clash: Well, I'll be.
Ultra Trion: Monstructor, you are to help us in saving Cybertron. Understood?
Monstructor: Monstructor... does not take orders... from you. (He whacks Ultra Trion aside) I take orders... from Nova Prime!
Thunder Clash: But Nova Prime is dead!
Monstructor: No. Nova Prime lives. I can feel it in my spark!
Thunder Clash: Well, your spark's obviously wrong!
???: Now I wouldn't say that.
(The Autobots turn around to see Nova Prime and Thunderwing)
Thunder Clash: Oh, scrap.
Nova Prime: I wouldn't say that somebody's dead unless you see their torn-up corpse.
Kup: What do you want, Nova?
Nova Prime: Not much. Except the big one behind you. And, oh yeah... YOUR HEADS!
