Act one:
Fad in EXT_ It is a beautiful day out as we come in on the Cybertronen Ocean and move along it till we reach a river that connects to it, we now begin to fallow it finally we reach a peaceful lake. Not a sound can be heard, till in the distance, and getting closer the sound of a car motor finally the car comes over a mountain, when reaches the lake it stops and transformers in to Bumblebee. he sighs and sits down. He seems caught up in his own thoughts when something pops up in the lake...
Bumblebee
What is that?
Unknown to Bumblebee it is a Maximal exit pod the same one used by Dinobot, specking of which Dinobot at this point leaves the pod and...
Dinobot
Beast mode!
As Dinobot leaves the lake he sees Bumblebee he approaches him he growls before stopping in front of him.
Dinobot
And who are you supposed to be?
Bumblebee is of course nervures he had never seen this bot before, but both his robot and beast modes look powerful, and he didn't want to take chances.
Bumblebee
Gulp B...B.. Bumblebee.
Dinobot backs up surprised but quickly regains his look of superiorness, Dinobot then begins to circle Bumblebee.
Dinobot
Bumblebee hmm... I believe I've heard of you, an Autobot right? So how did you get here?
As he says this Dinobot leans over Bumblebee and grins his teeth
Cut to a Original Transformers them song
INT_ the inside of the super computer the Oracle in it two competitors face off, Tarantulas, and Optimus Primal. both are in there beast modes , and circling one another, neither talking, Primal is the first to brake the silence in the white void.
Optimus Primal
So Am not going to leave this place alive? Pretty big words Tarantulas Think you can back them up?
As Tarantulas moves he transforms, and proceeds to draw his weapon and take a fighting stance.
Tarantulas
Oh yes!
He then jumps up and begins firing his weapon but only five shots but out of ten hit.
Tarantulas
Darn!
Tarantulas lands expertly on his legs and transforms and scurries off into a darkness created by the Oracle. Seeing this Primal takes to the air after him.
Optimus Primal
What's the matter Tarantulas truing chicken?
As he flies into the darkens he seems to stop for no reason, he then begins to struggle but can't seem to move! Suddenly Tarantulas voice rings though out the darkens
Tarantulas
What's the matter Primal? stuck?
Tarantulas comes slithering down in Beast mode on a piece of web, and ends up right in front of Primal who is still struggling to free him self.
Tarantulas
Oh don't bother wasting you're energy I made the web extra hard you won't even be able to Transform! heee!

At this Skywarp sets his machine guns and fires a round! but he only gets in two shots before Nightscream strikes back with his deadly claws! he gets in two hits when he starts using his sonic pulses on Skywarp!
Skywarp
Ahhhh! way you....!
At this Skywarp transforms and draws his laser and fires! but before he can get another shot in Nightscream sinks his fangs in to Skywarp; in his already weakened state Skywarp easily runs out of energy and crashes to the ground were Rumble is busy destroying the city, well Frenzy is killing the inhabitants.
Megatron I

EXT_ DAY Bumblebee and Dinobot are right were we left them Dinobot staring down an extremely scared Bumblebee
Bumblebee
Wa...Wa do you want?
Dinobot backs away as if he wasn't expecting that question. (which just between you and me he was wasn't.) Bumblebee notices this and decides he met be able to get control of the conversion.
Bumblebee
So what do you know about Autobots?
At this Dinobot realizing what Bumblebee is trying to do starts to bear down on him again.
Dinobot
Why SHOULD I tell you?
Bumblebee looks at him as if he just asked the stupidest question.
Bumblebee
Because I AM an Autobot; remember?
Dinobot
Grrrrr...
Bumblebee realize he has him and makes a gamble.
Bumblebee (under his breath)
Here goes nothing...
Bumblebee
So did you ran away from your' base too?
At this Dinobot runs up and grabs Bumblebee.
Dinobot
A spy hmm? Will I know how to deal with spies. Dinobot Maximize!
Dinobot's eyes glow ready to fire when
Go from Maximal symbol to Maximal symbol
Megatron (via Soundwave)
Thundercracker eliminate that peat KNOW!!!
Thundercracker(via Soundwave)
Gulp Yes Megatron.
We see Megatron on a hill over seeing the operation he and we look up and see Thundercracker rise into the air. we now see from the view of Thundercracker's cockpit as he approaches Nightscream.
Thundercracker (to him self)
I'll take this bot down and prove to Megatron that am useful!
Thundercracker immediately lunches his drone rockets at Nightscream but only on hits.
Nightscream(to him self)
Darn! am taking a beating! A few more hits and am history! I need to find out if this guy has a weakness.
Nightscream(to Thundercracker)
So why are YOU doing this?
Thundercracker
I...I...I don't know...
Nightscream takes advantage of Thundercracker's pause to blast him with his sonic pules and rip and tire at him with his claws.
Thundercracker
That's it am out of here!
and with that Thundercracker takes off.
Megatron (shouting)
You cowered! Come back here and finish him!!
Megatron turns towards the now nearly gone city and shots out.
Megatron
Starscream if you fail me too I'll have your' head!
As we see Starscream take off he hear him shot back.
Starscream
Me fail? Never!

end act one
Fad in
Act two
INT_ the Oracle we fad into darkness, but a image fads into existence as we now see we are moving up to it. It's Primal stuck in a wed well the web's creator dangles in front of him... Tarantulas! Tarantulas is looking quiet pleased with him self, he suddenly transforms and with on hand holding on to his "life line" he draws his gun.
Tarantulas
Any last words?
Of course Tarantulas doesn't what and fires of five shots at Primal who quickly recovers. gathering all his strength Primal starts to pull on the web, and as he does a crack appears in four of the web's lines!
Tarantulas
Grrr! so you're strength is greater then I thought ! So it seems I must leave... for now!
With that Tarantulas takes off once again into the darkness at that moment Primal brakes free and jumps to the ground.
Optimus Primal
What's the matter Tarantulas thing were just getting interesting! Optimus Primal Maximize!
now transformed Primal takes off in to the darkness after Tarantulas.
Cut to
further in the oracle we see Tarantulas stop and for some reason start poking around a part of the floor suddenly he's able to pick up part of it! He slithers in and close it, but he leaves it open just a crack enough for him to see out but not enough for someone to see him.... a few minutes later Primal comes waking by, slowly and cautions constantly feeling ahead for more web traps. Tarantulas just watches till Primal is right in front of him he then jumps out at a very surprised Primal. as he jumps he transforms and hits Primal with four direct hits, Primal tries to hit him but he jumps out of the way skillfully but still only manages to not get hit barely. after this he again transforms and scurries in to the darkness.
Optimus Primal (to him self)
You know this is starting to get quit repetitive...
Know am guessing he's unknowingly saying pretty much the same thing your' thinking, but anyway on with the story!
and once again Primal chase after Tarantulas.
Go from Maximal symbol to Autobot symbol
EXT_ DAY: Dinobot is on the verge of firing his optic lasers at Bumblebee who is needless to say VERY scared. He knows that he can't really hurt this guy, just the look of him screams strength, and power.
Bumblebee
What! I have not been spying on you! Really!
Dinobot's eyes dim some what as he walks over to Bumblebee and grabs him.
Dinobot
Oh really? then how did you know I "left" my base with out permission? Hmm?
Bumblebee
The oh how to say this...? Look in your' eyes, before you started to prepare to fire optic lasers at me that is...
Dinobot curious loosens his grip on him. When he suddenly he remembers something Bumblebee said...
Dinobot
Wait! What did you mean by " So did you ran away from your' base too?" Hmmm?
Bumblebee backs away releasing his slip of the tongue may have been one of the stupidest mistake he could have made. but before he can transform and try to make a break for it Dinobot kicks him to the ground and hovers his sword over him threateningly.
Dinobot
Now you tell me he WHOLE story, and it best be the truth...
Bumblebee
Gulp...
Go from Autobot symbol to Maximal symbol
EXT_DAY we the deadly shape of a Decepticon jet flying over head and right beneath it a batish figure underneath the jet unfortunately it didn't notice the jet till it was to late and the bat type figure was bombarded with cluster bombs.
Nightscream
AHHRG! All right who's next for the junk pile?
Starscream
You are!
With that Starscream let's loose a null-ray at Nightscream who loose electrical power in his wings, who promptly plummets to the ground. Starscream then goes in to a nose dive and as he reaches the bottom he transforms and lands in front of Nightscream who looks up transforms, leaps at Starscream blasting him with sonic pules with his claws and fangs out and ready for use.
Nightscream
Eat this Decepticon!
Starscream
Arggg! You pest! I shell crush you in to tin foil for this!
But it was to late Nightscream was upon him clawing at him and slowly sinking his fangs in to him Starscream manages to swat him off, but Nightscream lands skillfully on his feet and lets loose three sonic pulses at Starscream who under all the damage fall's just barely repairable.
Cut to Megatron I on the hill watching the fight as it ends with Nightscream the victor he shakes his fist angrily at the small bot.
Megatron I
If you want any thing done these days you have to do it your' self! I'll show him the might of the Decepticons he has reckoned with!
With that Megatron takes off into the sky after Nightscream speaking of which...
cut to
Nightscream is starching after beating Starscream, he then looks up at the sky and transforms
Nightscream
I am NOT in the beast condition I better get out of here before more blasts from the past show up!
With that Nightscream takes to the air not seeing that Megatron is right behind him aiming his fusion cannon...
fad out
end act two
fad in
start act three.
INT_DAY inside the Oracle we deal with the continuing battle between Primal and Tarantulas as we fad in to darkness we see Primal waking along in robot mode with his gun drawn each step he takes seems to be carefully considered, before he takes it. In the Darkness we see a set of eight eyes watching his every move very carefully. Primal is just about to take anther step when he feels a web in front of him, he automatically takes a step to the right instead, unfortunately it seems that's were the REAL trap was laid, and he quickly finds him self in a net made with three layers of Tarantulas' special web! And in the darkness we see the eight eyes blink and hear an evil snicker as Tarantulas moves out of hiding in beast mode.
Tarantulas
Tarantulas Terrorize! What's the matter Primal? Am I to clever for you?
With that the evil spider takes out his gun cracks a crooked smile aims and releases a barrage of fire on the helpless Maximal, who can do nothing but get hit. After twenty hits Tarantulas puts his gun away and walks over to Primal and hits him four times.
Optimus Primal
Pretty tough when am all tied up? huh why don't you let me go and see if you have such an easy time than?
Tarantulas
Do I look stupid Primal? You just took twenty shots with out going down to emergency level, to untie you would be a death trap... at least right now...
At this Tarantulas takes out his gun and fires five more shots at Primal.
Optimus Primal's internal computer
Warning! Only one system remains undamaged!
hearing this all Tarantulas smirks as he puts his gun away and brings out a cutter and begins to advance on Primal.
Tarantulas
What's the matter "great" Primal? feeling under the weather?
Optimus Primal
None of your' business.
But Primal's remark goes unheard by Tarantulas who is now on top of him. Tarantulas takes the cutter and skillfully begins to cut open Primal's chest reveling his spark.
Optimus Primal
Ahhhh!
Tarantulas
Heee. Tarantulas beast mode!
Tarantulas in beast mode starts to spine some web he then Transforms takes the web and rapes it around Primal's spark, and begins to tug it out.
Optimus Primal
Ahhhrg!
Tarantulas
Since you seem to have a habit of coming back from the dead I think I'll just tie your spark up and stick in here!
With that Tarantulas gives one finally tug and pulls the spark loose as Primal's body shuts down. With that Tarantulas throws the spark in a random direction, because his spark wasn't extinguished and it's in the Oracle it can still speak.
Optimus Primal's spark
damn you Tarantulas!
A few miles away Primal's spark slows to a stop suddenly two walls appear on ether end of it and two sub webs shot out of the one's holding the spark and attach them selves to the walls. The last thing Primal hears is a recording Tarantulas put in his web.
Tarantulas' recording
Well this is good by dear Primal to bad you'll be stuck here for ever well am busy remaking Cybertron! Mhahahah!
Optimus Primal's spark
You won't get away with this Tarantulas!
But Primal's word went unheard by the crafty spider, who had all ready left the Oracle.
Go from Maximal symbol to Autobot symbol
EXT_DAY Dinobot is siting on a rock looking dull unemotional as Bumblebee explains to him why he left the other Autobots, looking quit nerves. We join them as he is finishing up.
Bumblebee
So that's why I left.
Dinobot
Buh! You non-warriors are all the same no discipline!
At this remark Bumblebee gets quit angry and walks over to Dinobot his larger then human from towering over Dinobot.
Bumblebee
Look who's talking! I don't see you at least explaining why you left! Hmm?
Confronted with this Dinobot backs down a little but quickly regains it and steps up to the to coin a saying "gentle giant" and starts to push him down after he succeeds he walks up to Bumblebee's face and looks him right in the eye.
Dinobot
Are you implying I am not honorable? For if you are....
but before Dinobot can finish what he's saying a shot goes racing by his face.
????
Dram missed!
Dinobot stands back up and turns angrily to see who said that...
Next time: Nightscream tries to evade the deadly wrath of Megaton! What will become of Primal? and more!
