ARMAGEDDON, PART 3: OUR DARKEST HOUR
(Orion Pax flies towards Megastorm and co., ready to kick their butts)
Shockwave: What in Primus' name?
Orion Pax: RODIMUS! (he sucker punches Cyclonus and Scourge in the face) Why did you betray us?! Why did you join them?! WHY?!
Rodimus Prime: War would not save Cybertron, Optimus. And why should we protect Earth over our home? Axiom Trion once thought the same way. Years ago, we were gods. But here... they call us machines! [but i mean... that's what you are]
(Meanwhile, Omega Maximus is duking it out with Trypticon)
Trypticon: You cannot destroy Trypticon! Trypticon is invincible!
Omega Maximus: Think again. (he then Thor-hammers Trypticon in the face)
(Down below...)
Jazz: Ratchet! Good thing you're here! Prowl and Skids are injured!
(Orion Pax proceeds to pummel Rodimus)
Orion Pax: You're a disgrace to all Primes before you!
Rodimus Prime: And you think you'd make a better Prime?
Orion Pax: No. The only one who's a better Prime... is the one who's not! [so does Megastorm or Shockwave count?]
Shockwave: Just like your father... you fight for the weak! (he shoots Orion in the back)
Orion Pax: No, Shockwave. I fight for freedom. I fight not just for Cybertron, but for the galaxy.
Rodimus Prime: So lost are you. Survival is for the fittest. And you'd save this world over ours?
Orion Pax: Over you. [yooo]
(Meanwhile, the 'Cons are getting blasted to pieces)
Starscream: Hey! Point that somewhere-- (Ricochet blasts him away) ELSE!
(At that moment, a frightening shape appears in the space bridge portal in the sky)
Orion Pax: Oh, Matrix no... that's Cybertron! But it...
Rodimus Prime: It looks like Unicron! Shockwave, what's going on?! You didn't tell me--
Shockwave: Telling you every detail in my plan was not part of the deal, Rodimus. Nor was keeping you a part of it!
(He blasts Rodimus before taking off into the portal. Orion takes pursuit just as the merged Unicron-Cybertron exits the portal and comes into Earth's orbit)
(Within Unicron, Shockwave approaches a green orb)
Shockwave: At last....
Orion Pax: Don't even think about it.
Shockwave: Are you truly that determined? Do you truly wish our world to die?
Orion Pax: It's death is better than your rulership.
Shockwave: So be it... son of Prime.
(Down on Earth)
Megastorm: At last... we have won!
Starscream: Think, Megastorm. You saw One-Eye ditch Rodimus, didn't you? What makes you think he'll keep you? And even if he does, you'll only be on your knees, kissing his feet. [since when was Starscream the voice of reason?]
(But anyway, Megastorm flies over to Unicron)
(After witnessing Omega Maximus destroy Trypticon with an anti-climatic blow to the head, we return to Shockers and Orion duking it out)
Shockwave: Prepare to join your father in the Matrix!
Orion Pax: The Matrix! That's it! (he transforms and drives off. Shockwave takes pursuit)
Shockwave: Now you're the one running away? Come and face your doom!
Orion Pax: I know it's here! I can just sense it!
(He comes across Omega Prime's corpse before seeing the Matrix in Alpha Quintesson's hands)
Alpha Q: You want this, don't you? [what is with all of the Palpatine quotes] I'm sorry, but I wish to keep it for a while.
Orion Pax: In your dreams, squid. (He blasts the Matrix out of Alpha Q's hands only for it to land in Shockwave's)
Shockwave: Thank you, Autobot. You saved me the trouble of-- (he notices Megastorm creeping up behind him) Megastorm? What are you--
Megastorm: That's Lord Megastorm to you. (He blasts Shockwave, allowing Orion to take back the Matrix and blast his arm off)
Shockwave: You are so blind. Don't you want our race to prosper?!
Orion Pax: Yes, I do... but I don't want it to live under your rule! [you already said that]
(Shockwave lunges at Orion only for Megastorm to blast a hole through his chest)
Shockwave: This is... illogical. (He then dies. For good. Finally)
Megastorm: What are you waiting for, Orion? Finish it. Light our darkest hour.
(And he does. Unicron-Cybertron blows up and Orion and Megastorm fly out like Lando and Nien Nunb. YEE-HAW!)
