The Reformatting
Rodeesh looked at Agiel and asked, "You've been very silent, Agiel. Will you tell the Strike team and I that story you've been working on?" Agiel responded, "Fine."
As Galvatron held Honoria Shannon Enigma MacGregor's daughter up in his right hand and the Matrix in the other hand, he gloated over her. He told her, "See, your brave Hot Rod is not here to save you. He has abandoned you."
Honoria replied, in a strangled voice as she was being choked, "Hot Rod would never forget me! You lie!" Suddenly a voice cried, " Put her down!" Honoria was dropped, rather rudely, onto the cold earthen floor. Hot Rod attacked Galvatron and quickly found himself in the same predicament as Honoria had been in a few minutes earlier. Honoria looked around; the only thing in this room that could possibly be used as a weapon was the Matrix itself. Gathering all her courage she grabbed the Matrix and threw it at Galvatron. She missed! Instead of hitting Galvatron, the Matrix hit… Hot Rod! All that Honoria could do was watch as the Matrix enfolded Hot Rod in a blue light. She spoke into her Watch-Com "Kup?"
He responded "Aye, what is it lassie?"
"Kup," she said, "I just threw the Matrix at Hot Rod!" The Matrix finished its task. Hot Rod (at least Honoria thought it was Hot Rod) attacked Galvatron.
Honoria heard the voice of Optimus (Prime, not Primal) saying, "Arise, Rodimus Prime!" But the words were lost on Honoria.
All that she could hear was the sound of her own laughter as she said, "O God! O God! I just threw the Matrix at Hot Rod! By all the gods and their hells! I just reformatted Hot Rod!"
Kup's voice interrupted her reverie, "What did ye say lassie? It sounded like ye had thrown the Matrix at Hot Rod!"
Honoria replied "Well maybe. Maybe… … O! I don't know!" Arcee realized suddenly that Honoria thought that this was a joke. Honoria said, "O! Ye Primus! Now Hot Rod is having a bit of fun pummeling--yes, Hot Rod! Pummeling! --Galvatron!"
Arcee said, "Repeat! O! No! Don't bother to repeat. Apparently we have a new Prime."
Honoria gave a hysterical chuckle and said "Arcee! Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds? I mean Hot Rod the Prime!"
Arcee responded, "Ask him what he's gonna call himself now."
Honoria replied, " I have just thought of his name." Arcee asked "O Really? What is it?"
Honoria replied, " Rodimus Prime."
Arcee replied, "Well at least it's better than Hot Rod the Prime."
Honoria murmured to herself, "Rodi-mouse," and chuckled. When Kup and Arcee came to get them they asked why Honoria threw the Matrix at Hot Rod. She responded, "I was not trying to hit Hot Rod. I was trying to hit Galvatron and get Hot Rod out of a stranglehold but…"
Kup asked, "But what lassie?"
"I missed."
