Beast Wars: The Return - 1

SOMEWHERE NEAR EARTH

"Wow its had alot of changes since we left," said Cheetor. "Yes all the continents seem to have split apart," explained Rhinox. "Yes, well we were ordered to return and check on the planet, since recent data shows the planets energy has increased," explained Optimus Primal. Rhinox returned to typying in things on the computer. "Optimus guess whos back," said Rhinox. "Oh no, wheres the others, shouldn't they be helping fight the Preds or something?" asked Cheetor. "The rest of the Maximals are in recharge chambers," replied Optimus. Rhinox was trying so very carefully to steer direct to Earth.

MEANWHILE ONBOARD DARKSYDE

"Megatron, Maximals returning to fleshybot planet," explained Waspinator. "Well then, we shall return to the planet too, and see just what has interested the Maximals so much, yess," ordered Megatron. "Megatron, the Axalon has entered Earths atmosphere, preparing to enter," explained Scorponok. "Yess," said Megatron. The Darksyde entered the atmosphere, and began the descent towards the planet.

SOMEWHERE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF NEW YORK

Jo sat on the couch watching tv, anything a normal 12 year old kid would do. *Appearance - chin length brown curly hair, blue eyes. Wears - black short sleeved shirt, red jacket, blue ripped jeans, red converse and blue cap placed on backwards. Full name: Joseph William Miller. Age: 12. Eye: Blue.* His parents were away for a week on a business trip, so it was Friday at the moment an they wouldn't be back until next Sunday evening. It was Summer holidays, so he didn't need to go to school. He was currently watching 'my gym partners a monkey,' when a strange sound made him look out his living room window. There in the sky, two meteors of some kind, were heading towards New York. One of them went into the city. But the other one seemed to be strangely moving its way towards his house. Jo ran under the dining room table for cover, just in time for the meteor to crash.

The ground shook below him, but his house didn't seem as affected as it would have been. Only a few picture frames had fallen out of place from the tremor. He got out from underneath the table to look out the window. There in his backyard lay something large and strange that he'd never seen before. 'Isn't a metor usually meant to burn up in the atmosphere?' thought Jo. It had crashed deep in the ground, but still covered half the yard in black, smoke emitting from it. Lucky thing there was no other house or car around, or else every nosey being would be there. He wandered off to the back door, and quietly made his way towards the strange object. The closer he got, the less it looked like a meteor. Strange mechanical noises came from it as it opened. 'Ok the meteors opening up?' It stopped opening and a shadowy figure appeared. Jo could make out two red dots, up where the head? would be, resembling eyes. "Uhh, hello?" called Jo. The thing looked down at him and took a few steps forward revealing itself to be, a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Jo took a few steps back. "What the hell?" he murmured. "Greetings fleshling," said the T-Rex. Jo was even more surprised at the fact that it could speak. He backed up until his hand could feel the doorknob, and rushed inside, slamming the door shut behind him. He made sure all the locks in the house were locked, and hid under his bed covers in his room.
