Noricnu: Well, here it is, the prelude. If you're the Beast Wars fan and know all about Transformers, then you don't have to read the italics bold. Though Beast Wars fan or not, come and read :) Hear that? This explains the (start) of the Beast Wars, so come on in and read!
Warning, point of views (POV) will change ALOT. In the prelude, the point of view changes from my character, to the audience/author/no-one in particular then back to my character. Throughout my fanfic, POVs will change, it will be shown after ''s. Oh and my chapters are really long…
Disclaimer: I don't own the Beast Wars, but I do own my character and her ship. Oh and the italics bold Beast Wars descriptions are from; wars summary and on those video covers. I just a bit adjusted so I make it a bit more exciting.
Enjoy!
Prelude!
"Travelling through space AND time, eh?" I talked to myself, looking at the warp gate that the Predacon ship generated a few miles in front. I continued to practice my sword skills with the blade attached to my left arm, at least it kept me from boredom.
"I wonder what those Predacon fools are up to now…" I asked myself once again. I've got the whole ship to myself yet there's nothing on Cybertron to do, so I'm stuck here watching a Predacon ship take off to go to another adventure without me.
"What could Megalomaniac have in store this time? Must be good if he hasn't told anyone, even his most trusted soldiers…" I gave this idea some thought and my sword changed back into my normal arm. I hacked into the Predacon ship's computer and got the co-ordinates of the warp gate.
"Dim-witted older sibling, actually following HIS orders, pathetic! Honour my ass!" My words echoed off the walls of the ship. "Hopefully they'll be able to overthrow Megatron and become the commander of the Predacons, then I wouldn't be such a drifter and outcast anymore" I slammed my fists on the keyboard, angry with myself for getting so isolated from everyone.
"Pytri," I said to myself, "the wacko nickname he gives me…" I shut off my optics, remembering the old times with my older sibling and how we would make crazy nicknames for each other for the fun of it. I hated the old times, it disappeared and now only war and death is how I have fun. I switched on my optics when the screen on the side started beeping.
I walked to it and looked to see who had joined the party, "A Maximal ship? What fun," I said sarcastically, but then noticed what sort of ship it was, "Damn, that ship's got stasis pods, even better!" Who knows how many Maximals are on board the ship, those Predacons are in trouble.
I got to my controls and began typing down those co-ordinates, no way are they going to leave ME behind. They're going to get themselves exposed, captured and executed! That Megatron, he can't even steal something without getting rendered, yessss. I chuckled to myself at my impression of Megatron's trademark dialogue.
The Predacon ship went through the warp gate, then the Maximals, next me. I braced myself as I went through the warp entrance, being a bit behind them I might come out a few days or so later. "Well, a little sister's got to do what a little sister's got to do; save her older bro before he gets his butt kicked, hard."
Two ships warped out of space and time, a ship of Predacon criminals, and the Maximal exploration ship pursuing it.
They are from the planet Cybertron where mechanical beings are able to take on a disguise of another local life form to adapt to their surroundings and to protect themselves from Energon fields. They are called the Transformers.
Both ships opened fire on each other, letting out an array of powerful plasma substances that tore off parts of each of the ships' coverings.
The Transformers are separated into two 'tribes'. The peaceful Maximals and the fierce Predacons whose sole purpose is conquest. Each Transformer has their own unique personality, traits and weaponry. They all have their own jobs and own ambitions in life. Their technology is incredibly advanced, being able to travel to any galaxy they want and lately, able to travel through time as well.
The Maximal ship is heavily damaged and shuts off engine power. As the ship falls into a blue planet's atmosphere, it turns and gives the Predacon ship one final blast.
Energon is what Transformers need to survive, but if it is too plentiful, it can cause damage to their robotic forms, forcing them to faint into stasis lock when exposed to it in robot mode. It is both their power and weakness, if one acquired enough, the destruction it could cause is boundless.
The shot makes a direct hit and Predacons' ship engines go offline, the Predacon spacecraft then falls into the planet's atmosphere along with the Maximals.
The Predacon leader of the ship is Megatron; the ultimate villain of the Predacons. He is clever, ruthless, cool, and lusts only after power.
While the Maximals land in a thin canyon landscape, the Predacons land where volcanoes are present. Both of the tribes' ship engines are damaged beyond repair so the Transformers will be stuck on this strange planet for a while.
The Maximal commander is Optimus Primal; a confident and charismatic philosopher and warrior, who is widely respected and known by the Maximal tribe.
When the smoke clears and the fearful damage has been realised, both the Maximals take a look at their temporary home. A wide range of local life forms, a variety of different flora and two moons.
Stasis pods contain inactive Transformers, ready to be awakened. Before the Maximal ship crashed, a number of stasis pods were released so they would avoid becoming more damaged by staying in the ship.
A Predacon walks out of the ship, furious the leader had taken them to the wrong planet. He battles Megatron for leadership but loses and decides to join the Maximals.
A few days pass, the Maximals and Predacons fight to survive and they go through exciting days of exploration and conflict.
As the Transformers spend their time on this strange planet, a stone circle is found showing abnormal readings. Both the Maximals and Predacons fight to claim it as their own but a plasma shot, activating it, accidentally hits the centre of the stone circle, releasing a strange energy beam into space.
The trip, as usual, was a short one but no other ship was seen. A few glimmers were seen in the distance and I saw stasis pods orbiting around a blue planet and so I headed towards it. If there are stasis pods that means there are stranded Transformers. I looked around the planet's solar system I was in and then looked back at the blue planet, I could swear it was Earth but it has two moons… What could Megatron want with this lousy planet?
I cruised towards the planet and looked for any Predacon signatures. My monitor beeped at me, "Computer what is it?" I called out.
Abnormal warp gate opening 10 metres on port of ship. Unidentified signal heading this way. If caught near formation of warp gate, unknown consequences are probable.
"ONLY 10 METRES! Who knows what that could do to me!" I piloted the ship farther away on route to the blue planet, nervy about the situation I was in.
I smile as I move away, the warp gate hasn't formed yet so I should be safe. But the computer continued to beep at me, maybe I'm not out of the way yet? The strange energy signal I forgot about has come this way, now I'm worried. I yelped and pulled the thrusters back, wrong move.
The warp gate formed and my ship was in the way. The alarm went off and I tried desperately to get out of the way of everything but no use, the beam hit and the ship shook violently.
A pain went through me, then a strange sensation, I felt like I was going to give way. Everything began to radiate an intense white light and sparks flew out of the ships' walls. A few seconds went by and the ship gave the signal that we were now entering the planet's atmosphere.
Prepare for ground collision.
I couldn't see what was happening and tried to look through to where the ship was going, I saw clouds and the ground coming straight towards me. My eyes widen at the sight, "Oh slag…"
Norcinu: Well, there it is. Whatdothink! Ooo, excitement! Please don't disappoint me. Oh and I wonder what that 'bright light' did to the character?
