Transformers: Genocide
1. New Divide
The F-22 Raptor shot into the skys above Egypt, and the wounded Decepticon leader growled angrily before converting into a Cybertronian aircraft then bolting after Starscream. The two Decepticon's fled the scene while Optimus Prime ripped apart Megatron's fallen mentor. Starscream's scratchy voice soon ripped from Megatron's communication system. "Sir, we have humans coming in from the left and right." Megatron growled again. "Take care of them Starscream. I'm not in my best condition right now." "Yessir." Starscream zipped in response before rolling to the right, scanning for the first jet.

Patrick Koko, a U.S. Air Force Pilot, sped towards Megatron, prepping his jet's machine guns. Suddenly, a F-22 Raptor rolled in front of him, causing him to jerk the control stick to the side. His plane spun wildly for a second but he repositioned it. "Shit...that was close..." He switched on his walkie talkie. "Locus, Erin, get your asses over here." Twin jet's suddenly blasted into Koko's view, machine gun fire raining down on the bulky alien aircraft in front of the Raptor. Koko smiled, but suddenly the Raptor wings began to expand slightly, and two large machine gun turrets emerged, one on each side, both beginning to open fire on Eri and Locus's jets. Patrick Koko quickly fired his machine guns into the Raptor right wing, but Locus's jet caught fire and a scream split through his walkie talkie before Locus's jet was engulfed in flames, and it began to spiral down towards the awaiting earth. But Koko never stopped shooting. If anything, he fired with more intensity for the death of his fallen comrade. Soon enough the Raptor made a rapid descent to the ground. Thinking that he had stopped the villain, Patrick smiled to himself, pleased, before pursuing the other aircrafts. Meanwhile, Starscream converted a few hundred feet before hitting the ground, boiling with anger. He looked into the sky. "Megatron, sir, turn backwards and lure the humans to me." Silence came from the other end. Starscream cursed and looked into the sky. Sure enough, Megatron turned around, jetting in Starscream's direction. Starscream focused, his entire arm changing into a large missile launcher. "Asswhipes." He whispered, partly at the humans, and partly towards Megatron. Patrick Koko and Dennis Locus passed directly over Starscream, not even noticing the large robotic alien. The Decepticon shot two missiles, one after the other. The first connected with the rear end of Koko's plane, ripping off a hunk of metal before exploding, killing Koko instantly. The second drove into the bottom center of Locus's plane, the missile tearing through the steel underbelly, followed by the cockpit, crushing Locus to death. And then, of course, it exploded.
Starscream let his hand transfer back to normal, before Megatron's voice hissed in his ear. "Excellent. Now, let's get back to the warship and off this stinking wretch of a planet." Starscream jumped, transferring into a jet and following Megatron into the sky.

Optimus Prime finished his message, and looked down at Sam Witwicky. The human stood by his side, staring into the calmness of the ocean. Behind them sat Bumblebee, Mikaela sitting on the ground beside him. Ratchet and Ironhide were in the back bickering, Ironhide complaining that he wasn't injured that badly, and Ratchet insisting he was. Arcee had lost two of her counterparts in the previous battle. The Autobots and select humans were on a US Naval Carrier. As Optimus stood, staring into the deep blue sea, the water began to churn. Sam's brow furrowed in confusion. "What is th-" His question was answered as a deep purple and charcoal gray submarine broke the surface. Sam stared at it, warily. Prime noticed a small, almost impossible to see movement in the back of the submarine. A movement he knew all too well. "Sam...Run." Optimus stated. The human turned and sprinted in the opposite direction. As Prime slid out his swords, the submarine leapt into the sky, quickly changing into a long, thin robot with heavily bulked arms and legs. The Decepticon landed on all fours on the ship deck, quickly looking around the ship before charging at Optimus Prime. It leaped, catching the Autobot leader by surprise. From across the deck, Bumblebee sprinted towards the brawlers. The Decepticon opened it's mouth, arms wrapped tightly around Optimus, revealing his long, sharp fangs. Bumblebee's hand whirred in quick circular motions as it transformed into an orange battle axe. He slid behind the attacking Decepticon and swung the axe down hard, straight into one of the armored shoulders of the monster. It turned around. Bumblebee pulled the axe out but the monster was already on him, claws tearing at his metallic flesh, fangs bared. Optimus Prime raised his sword, preparing to bring it down on the attacker.
All of a sudden, a loud gunshot split the air and the Decepticon's head exploded. Bumblebee dropped to one knee, throwing the corpse off of himself. Prime watched the dead Transformer, not sure if it would pop back up or re-grow a head. However, the thing was dead. Prime turned around and looked for the assassin, and his eyes fell to rest on a camouflaged Autobot, standing atop the control tower, who quickly converted into a F-35 Lightning II jet and soared down to Optimus Prime. It reconverted. The Autobot spoke with a husky voice. "You must be Optimus Prime. I've been looking all over this damned planet for you, and imagine my surprise when I find you in battle. In the middle of the water. Do you know how much of this damned planet is covered in water? I'll tell you wha-" Prime cut the Autobot off. "Autobot, what is your name?" The soldier stood straight. "I am Breakaway, sir. I am the fasted Cybertronian ever recorded, sir. I-" Prime stopped him again. "That'll do, Breakaway. Welcome to the Autobots." Optimus turned and began to walk towards the oncoming Autobots, stirred by the noise. Bumblebee's radio searched for transmissions, and he found what he thought were the right words to say. A satanic voice rose from his speakers. "Welcome to hell." Breakaway looked at the yellow Autobot and nodded. "I know...I know."
Ok. I rushed this chapter a bit. I meant for it to be double in length, but I ran out of time. If response to the story is good, I will continue. Otherwise, its going in the hole. Anyway, this thing will be much better than this horrible first chapter. Believe me.
Review please. Negative or positive, constructive criticism, whatever. Just review, and be honest. There will be large scale battles, destruction, and character death. Possible romance, but this is mainly an action story. Dramatic deaths and all that jazz will come along. So, tell me if I should kep going or not in the reviews also.
