PRIME TIME: Part 1. Chapter 1- The Wreckoning
The fluffy white clouds hung high in the sky, floating around listlessly just like any other day. But this day was different. Today, people from all around the world gathered into the monstrous City Arena of Japan to bear witness to the epic event dubbed "The Wreckoning," an event so infamous the last month or so that it was constantly advertised all around the international commerce centres since it was conceived. Everywhere anyone in the world turned they would be staring at either a poster or a television screen shamelessly blaring the news of the gathering.
The lights faded and all was silent in the vast arena.
The stadium echoed with the jumbled voices in the seatings chatting amongst them. Suddenly, the large set of lights that illuminated the stadium in a deep indigo glowing abruptly shut off. Instantaneously, the whole crowd silenced with the lights' queue. The stadium was thrown into a pitch-black darkness. Then, a small bright spotlight shone down to the centre of the arena. Standing in the light was a small girl, known world wide to the Transformer fans as T-Ai. "Ladies and Gentlemen!" she called out to the crowd, "Welcome to the Wreckoning!" The crowd let sound a deafening cheer at the name of the event. "In this tournament the world's most notorious, heroic and feared robots will battle it out to determine the ultimate champion of the transformer world!" T-Ai continued. "And the undisputed master of metal and mainframes will claim the ultimate prize; the coveted title of 'Ultimate Prime'!" Another deafening roar sounded.
"Ladies and Gentlemen!" T-Ai said again. "Let's get ready to rumble!"
Instantly, the stadium lights turned themselves on once again, flooding the arena with bright white light. T-Ai hovered in the air as the two announcers introduced themselves.
"Hey everyone, I'm Matrix, and I'll be your ringside announcer tonight." Matrix spoke into the microphone in his hand. "You all know who I am," Randomness said into a microphone of his own, "I'll also be your announcer."
"Well now," said Random casually, "Let's meet today's two combatants." He gestured to T-Ai, who bowed before introducing the fighters. "Introducing, from the north end of the field!" T-Ai yelled to the vast audience, "The Grand-daddy of all Primes."
A revving sound could be heard as a red metallic door opened at the north end of the arena.
"The leader of the Autobots, hero of the cybertronian wars, keeper of the matrix."
The noise became louder and louder before a red semi-truck burst from the entrance with incredible speed. It stopped on a dime at T-Ai's holographic feet. It then began a metamorphosis. The rear lifted onto it's tip, raising it considerably, two large feet proportioned themselves, followed by the wheels rotating inwards (so as to be hidden from view) and the sides of the rig itself shifting. The two headlights retracted and were replaced by powerful blue fists. Then, finally a large robotic head became visible. It ordained a mouthpiece and a stunning blue helmet.
"Generation One, Optimus Prime!" T-Ai finished. A deafening roar came as a response to their hero, who gladly waved back as he brandished his laser rifle.
"And from the South end of the arena" T-Ai said as blue doors of the same structure began to open at the opposite end of the field, a small figure was already standing in the entrance. However it was impossible to tell who it was.
"The One robot army, the squadron leader and newest member of the Convoy Council" The figure began to sprint into the centre of the arena, moving at blinding speed. He stopped right beside T-Ai, holding a gigantic beam cannon in his left hand. His face was astonishingly similar to Optimus' face, right down to the plate.
"Big Convoy!" T-Ai shouted, gaining an equally loud roar. 'Big' Convoy stood looming compared to T-Ai, however compared to the giant AutoBot he barely made it to the top of his shin.
"Okay guys, I declare this a Prime Time battle" T-Ai chirped to the two robots, "Begin!" She then flew straight up and began to survey the match.
"Okay old timer" Big Convoy stated to the retro Prime, "Stand down now and I won't hafta rip ya!"
"I will fight with honour, your threats mean very little to me little one" Optimus responded.
"Bah, your talk is cheap! Bring it on!"
Big Convoy backed up his insult by firing his cannon straight at Prime's waist, the giant robot leapt to the side. It caused a minor dent in the shields of the arena. Prime growled, aimed and fired his own weapon. Three shots later and the small Maximal was still dodging. Prime ran forward and almost appeared to fall over, but before he smacked the ground her transformed into the same red rig that had entered the arena. He drove on a collision course, straight towards Big Convoy.
Big shoved his hands out and stopped Prime dead in his tracks, the screeching of tyres echoed throughout the giant arena before Prime altered his tactics. He transformed and kicked Big harshly, sending the small robot flying into the air. Big took afew pot shots at Prime, despite his weakened condition he wasn't out just yet. Although that one kick had greatly damaged him.
"Here I come old man!" Big shouted, he then decided to use his position to his advantage and began to speed straight towards Optimus.
Prime waited until his opponent was within striking distance before jumping to his right; Big Convoy slammed into the ground with devastating force, creating several large cracks in the ground. Optimus looked over at Big and saw that the robot was still functional, he sighed before transforming into his vehicle mode.
Prime reversed and faced his exhaust to Big; he shoved his gearbox into reverse at full throttle.
Big looked up, and saw Prime's rear tyres descending upon him, "No." he mumbled. *CRUNCH!*
"And our first battle winner is Optimus Prime!" Matrix announced to the crowd, generating a whirlwind of a response cheer.
*** Okay, here's an in-between filler to occupy you guys.
Optimus Prime entered the Autobots quarters, the thunderous appluase being muffled by the numerous titanium doors hissing shut behind him.
He layed his Laser Rifle down on a table as his fellow Autobots cheered.
"Wow Prime, you beat that guy in record time!" Hound said, raising his arms in joy.
"Yeah, I thought he was gonna last a little longer than that!" Jazz stated, nudging Mirage in the ribs as he laughed.
"What's wrong Prime?" Bumblebee asked, "You look kinda sad"
"I don't think it was right of me to damage him so badly." Prime responded to the mini-bot
"Aw, come on Prime!" Ironhide boasted, "You did what any of us woulda' done!"
"I dunno...maybe..."
In the far corner of the room, away from rest of the Autobots, two lone robots were exchanging glances.
Bluestreak snickered and helled out his hand, "Come on Gears, you know the bet"
"Ugh..." Was Gears' only response. He handed the grinning Autobot numerous currency before walking off, grumbling as he did so.
"Ah, I can always count on you to give me a coupla' extra bucks Gears" Bluestreak mocked as he counted the various bills.
*** "Convoy-sama!" Stampy shouted as the battered Maximal entered their quarters. "What did that mean Cybertron DO to you?!" The rabbit asked hysterically.
"Pipe down Stamps" Break told him. "Big dosn't need your bantering right now"
Big Convoy mumbled something before staggering into one of the beds lining the room. Suddenly, another figure entered; It was the giant white Autobot, Ratchet.
"Hey there" he said, greeting the smaller robots, "Just here to check that none of Big's internals were damaged"
"I don't need some half-assed old timer checkin' up on me just coz I've got a scratch!" Big shouted across the room.
"I don't think you should disturb him" Long-rack said quietly, "Come back tomorrow"
"Will do" Ratchet said. He turned and walked back to his own quarters.
*** "Ladies and Gentlemen" T-Ai spoke over a PA system, "We'll be taking a short break, please take this opportunity to get refreshments and utilise the lavatories. Thankyou!"
And that just about wraps up Part One! Join us next time when Optimal Optimus and Rodimus Prime face off!
