Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers.
I got this list from livejournal.
Notes: Number 9 refers to another fic of mine called "Swap".
Chapter 1:
1. 2 a.m.
"No, it's too fragging early to train, can't we do it tomorrow? Wait Onslaught stop---GAH!"
Vortex's protests were ignored as his commander dragged him unceremoniously out of his berth.
2. Metaphor
"Don't try to use metaphors on Brawl, you'll find he takes it quite literally"
3. Sky
Blast Off hated the noisy blue skies of Earth. He much preferred the vast, quiet, airlessness of space.
4. lost scene
"What the slag happened here" Onslaught demanded as he gazed at their quarters, which were rapidly filling up with water from some unknown leak.
5. Degrees
Onslaught was feeling the extreme heat of the desert sun, as well as his troops, but so help him if he started complaining like they did.
6. seize the day
Swindle grinned at his clients as he proceeded to make the transaction. Every new day was a glorious opportunity to make more profits.
7. Opposite
Three-fifths of the team's personalities seemed to clash with the other two-fifths. However, outsiders were always surprised, when the combaticons managed to flawlessly complete a mission without any problems.
8. passions run
Swindle had an insatiable hunger for money and would do anything to get it. Everyone knew it and Starscream had once said, "One day your stupid team will finally wake up, take the smart route, and dump you out on your aft"
9. Connection
The gestalt-bond was a connection between all of them. Each one could feel what the others were feeling, so it wasn't a surprise, when they caught on that something was wrong with Swindle after Wheeljack's invention exploded.
10. lull and storm
Onslaught began to recharge after the rest of his team had done so, leaning against a rock on Charr. They all at least deserved a rest before having to face the perils of scrounging for energon the next day.
11. Animal
PLOP! The bird dropping landed on Onslaught's hood. The truck inwardly twitched, and readied his guns to fire.
12. Children
"You three are like children" Blast off said disdainfully. Brawl promptly shoved the shuttle into the lake, while Vortex and Swindle held him under.
13. we all float on
"I despise you"
"Of course you do" Vortex said cheerfully as he and Blast Off floated on the remains of a destroyed oil rig.
14. chess
For all his genius, Prowl could simply not figure out who this 'BlueCommander5' was that kept beating him at internet chess.
15. Duty
No matter how they annoyed the living slag out of him, Onslaught's duties to his team were always the first and foremost in his mind.
16. Rip
Driven to such a maddening rage, Brawl kept on pounding the slag out of the autobot even after his arm had been torn off.
17. missing time
After Swindle had sold them they were so mad that they lost track of the time they spent beating him, until Skywarp came and yelled at them to "Keep the fragging noise down!"
18. crest
Onslaught and Brawl had been the first two to meet. Right after they had both gotten their insignias branded on their chest plates.
19. Itch
"ARGH! I can't reach it! GAH!"
Vortex laughed as Swindle fell over attempting to scratch the itch on his back.
20. Explode
The blast sent Swindle flying backwards, impaling himself on a rock and sending him into stasis.
21. Rise
It was completely ridiculous. Onslaught had said so to Swindle, when the shortest mech on the team had parked himself on a towering stack of junk in their quarters after one too many short jokes.
22. Crumble
Onslaught to this day, could not fathom how one blast from Defensor had sent Bruticus tumbling to the ground.
23. Range
It was dark, but Brawl could vaguely see the outline of the target in the dark. He took aim and fired.
"Owe! Brawl that was me you idiot!"
Oops.
24. fight/flight
Brawl would love to continue fighting, but as always Megatron called the retreat forcing him to flee.
25. Acid
"I GOT HIT BY BURNING GOO SLAG!" Vortex cried as they scrambled out of the corrosive liquid from a bomb the autobots' had launched.
26. Color
"It's purple isn't it?"
"Contrary to popular belief no it isn't. It's blue"
"Does that mean you have a secret thing for Onslaught?"
"How the slag did you get that from my favorite colour?!"
27. Give
"Take the stupid cube" Vortex growled as he shoved his last energon cube at his half-starved teammate.
28. Needle
"I never knew you hated needles so much Swindle"
"Enough hold him still so that we can get this over with"
"N-no, no Blast Off, Vortex you traitors I'm gonna---no, NO!"
29. Locks
"Almost got it...HEY!"
Brawl shoved Vortex aside and proceeded to kick down the door.
30. Slope
With his thrusters offline, and since he couldn't transform, Blast Off had no other choice, but to slide down the side of the ditch to escape the autobots.
31. Correspondence
The three new mechs on the base promptly learned not to mess with the gestalts after they had tried to slag one member and the rest of the team responded by putting them in the medbay for the next few weeks.
32. Linger
Five-vorns after two of them were killed... and no matter how stupid, and pathetic it was, he still couldn't stop himself from going back to where it had happened.
End Chapter.
That's the first half I'll post the other half sometime. And kudos to anyone who can figure out the reference in number 25. Also critique welcome.
