The army was growing faster than expected. Two of guards watched as more Terrorcons we born from the factory. The assembly line crowded with yet to be assembled Terrorcons. The slaves worked vigorously to try and work as hard and as fast as possible to please their overlords who kept a close view from a short distance. Any who opposed them would be sent straight to the pool. A large hole filled with orange water. The discoloration of the pool was due to the gallons of mech fluids that had been spilt inside from the many mechanic victims of the Quintossons.
In their courts all were innocent, than they were fed to the vicious Sharkticons that lay and wait in the depths of the pool.
"Work faster!" Cried the whip master as he swung his tentacle around like a whip. "Or you'll be made acquaintances with the Sharkticons!"
The frightened slaves pushed their limbs faster at the threat.
From a dark room he watched as his army, his plan, was taking shape.
"How beautiful is it." Said one face, than it's head spun around reveiling a second. "Yes. Such beautiful fear and destruction."
The leader of the Quintossons laughed maniacally as his four faces spun around in chorus channeling an eerie echo throughout the building.
Optimus Prime looked out onto Icon. Memories of when he fought life and limb to defend this city from the Decepticons. With Megatron gone and peace restored Optimus began to wonder what other threats might be out there waiting to take their chance.
Some might have called his paranoid or even a tight wad, but not matter the case, all those years of civil war had taught him one thing very clearly; danger comes from unexpected places...and often.
His steps echoed through Autobot HQ's halls. 10 years of peace had graced the surface of Cybertron and none thought it would ever end. That the worse was behind them and it was all down hill from here.
Prime was oblivious to his surroundings as he walked on.
Hot shot was looking around for his commander when he bumped into him in the hall.
"Um, Sir!" Hot shot replied startled.
Optimus looked up after being startled out of his deep thoughts.
"Oh! Sorry, Hot shot. I wasn't paying attention." Prime confessed.
Hot shot nodded.
"I see. Well, I've been looking all over for you." Hot shot told his commanding officer.
"Really? What for?" Optimus inquired.
"It's about those security plans you sent to the council." Hot shot answered.
Optimus would have raised his eyes brow if he had any.
"What did they say?" Optimus asked half knowing the reply.
"They said, 'they'll come in handy next time we have a war'. Sorry rime, but you know they are right." Hot Shot told his Commander.
Optimus started to walk on and Hot shot followed and continued, "Sir, please. I mean I understand you're being careful, but we're not battling the Decepticons anymore."
"No, Hot Shot. You're right we aren't." Prime nodded.
Hot shot starred at his commander.
"But if we completely let out guard down I can guarantee we will regret it." Prime informed. "If the council does not feel the same way there is nothing more I can do."
"Aw c'mon cap! Don't be such a downer! You're a hero!" Hot shot said with a smile as he clapped Prime on the shoulder. "You liberated the Minicons and defeated Megatron. It's like everything you say you'll do comes true!"
Prime couldn't help but smile at his friend's optimism.
"True, but that doesn't excuse the facts." Optimus said as they continued down the corridor.
Scorponok stomped down the hall of the factory and stopped at a door with two Terrocon guards at each side of it. They immediately stepped aside for Scorponok.
"You summoned me Alpha Q?" He asked after he had entered the room and the door had closed behind him.
"Yes, we did!" The Quintosson hissed. "Our terrorcon scouts have found a planet abundant with Energon. It resides in SOL galaxy."
"Do you wish that I confirm the presence of energon?" Scorponok asked his master.
"No need. The inhabitance of the planet have discovered it and are using it for their own uses." Alpha Q said as he switched heads.
"I will assemble a fleet of Terrorcons to dispatch immediately for the planet." Scorponok said determined. " That Energon is as good as ours."
"Do not disappoint us Scorponok. You know what happens when we are displeased." Alpha Q said evilly.
"Yes!" Scorponok answered nervously.
With a salute Scorponok left the room to gather a fleet of Terrocons for the invasion that was to come.
Scorponok gather together his Generals; Ravage, Divebomb and Cruellock.
Each one of the Generals had 30 of his troops at his disposal for this mission.
"What's our mission?" Ravage asked.
"We are to secure a planet, ripe with Energon, for invasion." Scorponok answered as they continued through the hanger towards their ship.
"Oh goody. Death, destruction, and carnage!" Cruellock cheered viciously as he rubbed his claws together in anticipation.
They stood watch as their fleet marched into the war ship.
Soon they were ready to take off to the unsuspecting planet.
The sand piles near the factory were great for motor biking and Kicker was having the time of his young life. His bike sent sand flying in every direction. Kicker sped down the sand mountain till he reached the bottom where her revved the engine and took off down the path through the construction grounds. The 14 year old zoomed by construction workers who were actually mining the Energon out of the site near Jones Inc.
Kicker's dad was weird enough being himself but now he was the head of a multi-billion dollar industry. He'd gone from a scientist to a millionaire in a week. Of course Kicker wasn't complaining. He got a new Motorbike and he got a new wardrobe.
His white leather jacket and Red T-shirt were covered with dust from the sand hill, but the speed he was going blew most of it off.
He rounded a bend and screeched to a stop. An extremely tall black man with a build to match stood in the middle of the path; arms crossed, and looking at Kicker like a mom would to her kid who just did something naughty.
"What do you think your doing kid?" The man asked raising an eyebrow.
"He he. Hi ya, Mury!" Kicker laughed nervously. Other workers around them stopped what they were doing to watch.
"You know you can't be riding that thing in this area, Kicker!" Mury told the boy sternly.
Mury walked over to the boy, grabbed a hand full of the back collar, and lifted his clear off the bike and set him down.
The men around them whispered their 'awes' to each other.
"You go see your dad, Kid. He's been calling for you all mourning." Mury pushed Kicker to get him going. Kicker turned around and tossed a $5 bill at Mury.
"Make sure my bike makes it back, Ok?" Kicker asked.
Mury put the bill in his shirt pocket and signaled his answer with a salute.
Kicker ran down the path to the entrance of the site. He ran out of the gate and down the sidewalk and into the main building. He had to go 15 floors before he reached his dad's office.
When he reached his dad's office the secretary was on the phone, but motioned for him to go on in.
He opened the double doors and walked into a spacious room with bookshelves lining one half of the room and the other with filings and pots of plants. At the far end near the window, was Hid dad's desk. The desk was made of dark ebony wood and there were files messily spread out covering most of the wood.
The chair was spun to face the window and Kicker could hear that his father was on the phone.
"Ok, John. I'll have the next shipment get to you as soon as possible." With that Kicker's dad spun his chair around and hung up the phone. After rubbing the tension from his face and taking a breath of renewal Kick's dad, Dr. Jones, faced his son with a smile.
"Well Jr., what can I do you for?" He asked.
"Mury told me you were calling for me." Kicker told his father.
"Oh yes!" Kicker's father got up out of his chair, walked around his desk, and put his arm around his son' shoulder. "Remember when you came to me a few weeks ago asking for a part time job?"
"Yeah." Kicker nodded as His father steered him out of his office and down the hall.
"Well I didn't think you'd be able to handle an office job and I was convinced you weren't looking into mining as a career choice, but I think I found something perfect for you to do!" Dr. Jones walked into a room on the end of the hall. It appeared to be a lab of some kind.
A young girl was standing near what looked like a battle suit.
"Kicker, This is Misha, head of the Energon research department." Dr. Jones introduced them. The two young people shook hands and waited for Dr. Jones to finish. "Kicker this is Jones Inc.'s latest project as a result of Energon."
"What does it do?" Kicker asked as he examined the suit.
"This suit was designed for police officials." Misha explained. "It runs on energon, of course. It has a wrist radio or com-link. There's a mini computer in the right wristband. The computer has infer-red scanners and is self heating, thanks to thermal technology."
Kicker whistled his 'awe'ment.
"Impressive, eh?" Dr. Jones commented.
Kicker nodded, "But what does this have to do with my new job?"
"Kicker, I want you to help test it." His father replied amused.
"You mean you want me to be the Ginny pig?" kicker asked a bit shocked.
"In a way, yes." Misha answered. "You see our last Ginny Pig-I mean tester passed away."
Kicker looked appalled.
"Oh no! He died of a heart attack, not the suit!" Misha explained hastily.
Kicker relaxed a bit, "But still. What are you testing?"
"The suits durability and reliability of the suit in certain types of conditions." Misha explained.
"How much does it pay?" Kicker asked skeptically.
"Ten fifty an hour." Dr. Jones said.
Kicker's eyes almost fell out of their sockets.
"Sweet! I'll do it." Kicker said happily.
For the next few weeks Kicker ran test on the suit. He'd come in after school and run through endurance tests like running on a treadmill. The tests began to become more painful as the weeks drew on. The suit was designed for battle so it had to be bullet proof, and crack proof. In the past month Kicker had been shot punched and rolled into the ocean numerous times, but he didn't mind as much as you'd think. He was not only getting to something that he loved, he was getting paid for it. He got to take a bullet. How many of his friends could say that? And Chris thought his broken leg was cool!
Plus he got t work with Misha. Not only was she smart and funny, but also she was pretty. It would seem to be inevitable to some under these conditions the two would start to get closer.
The army floated in the vastness of space waiting for their signal. They could smell the energon dripping from the planet. This mud ball was so concentrated with it some terrrorcon began to wonder if the entire planet was nothing but Energon.
The three generals stood in front as they watched the planet circle in its orbit. It was so easy it seemed suspicious. Surly a planet so ripe with this precious source would have some sort of barrier, but no. Nothing prevented them from simply attacking the planet and taking what they wanted. Well except Scorponok. He was such an airhead he wanted to wait for their indicial target to be at a specific point in its orbit for them to attack.
"This is stupid." Ravage hissed.
Divebomb squwaked in agreement. "Why haven't we begun our decent to the planet?"
"Because commander wishes it." Cruellock snorted.
Ravage echoed Cruellock's snort.
"What a waste." Ravage mused.
Diveboamb turned annoyed to his fellow General.
"What are you spouting now?" He squawked.
Ravage continued gazing at the planet.
"Our orders were to take the energon and destroy the planet, affirmative?" He inquired.
"So?" The two other said together in equal annoyance.
"This is heavily populated planet." Ravage scoffed. "These beings could be good slaves."
Divebomb smacked Ravage in the back of the head.
"What a stupid notion." He barked.
Cruellock chuckled at the comedy of the act.
"You starting to go soft Ravage?" He asked.
Ravage growled at the Dino.
"All right Femmes ready yourselves." Scorponok bellowed.
