From the perspective of: Grimlock
Part of this chapter will be told in parentheses. At these points will indicate when the Dinobots are in vehicle mode, as dinosaurs don't talk.
"Dinobots, charge!" I shouted. I brought out my double-ended mace and smashed through a whole line of drones. "Arggh!" Sludge growled, as he brought out his sword. "Time to smash!" yelled Slag as he used his axe to kill two drones. More kept teleporting in. The Decepticons must really want something Autobot to die today, I thought. Swoop had used his twin swords to destroy four more drones. "Yeah, I am beating you now Snarl!" he shouted. Snarl replied by using his mace to kill another drone. "I think you spoke too soon there partner!" Scorn was using his arm blades to make himself a tornado of death, as he began spinning around to destroy drones. "Slash, I could use some help here!" he asked. "On my way Scorn!" the small fry replied. Using his claws, Slash took out a drone that was about to jump onto Scorn. "Keep fighting Dinobots! Let none survive!" I cried. "Sir, yes, sir." Slag answered. He then jumped over a drone, rammed into it, and then threw at my mace. I then swung, causing it to fly into two more drones, which allowed Scorn to destroy all three with his arm blades. "Very good Grimlock. This coordination and teamwork is exactly what makes the Decepticons shiver at the mention of the Dinobots." Jetfire radioed. "That, and our amazing vehicle modes." Slash added. "Less talking, more smashing!" Sludge interrupted. He stepped on a drone's head, squishing it, while also punching another into the air, allowing him to then stab it with his sword. "Will they ever stop coming?" Swoop asked. "One way to find out." I answered. "Dinobots, TRANSFORM!" "About time!" Snarl exclaimed. WHACHITITACHITACHEETAWOOHCHIK. In front of the drone forces now stood the most formidable beasts to have existed in 66 million years. "RAWRAARRAWARAR!" we cried. (Scorn, lead us off) I ordered. (With pleasure). Scorn then breathed fire from his mouth, melting three drones. He then charged into a roll, slicing four more drones with his sails, and then chomped one up with his teeth. (Destroy at your leisure) I said. Slag then charged in horns at the ready, trampling and piercing as he went. Sludge, although he was the biggest and slowest, had a length advantage, and used his tail to slam drones and also throw them on his spiked sides. Snarl was living wrecking ball. He crashed his way through drone after drone, and used his spiked tail very efficiently. Swoop was a terror in the sky, "swooping" done on enemies and chomping them up. He also used his fire breath to strafe. Slash was able to infiltrate the drone's ranks and began tearing single drones apart with his speed, claws, and teeth. And then of course, there was me. The most fearsome of us all if I do say so myself. "RIAWARAIA" I cried. I stampeded through the drones, breathing fire left and right, and then gobbling up drones in pairs and trios. "Grimlock, they are going to retreat if you, not anyone else, destroy five more drones." Jetfire radioed. (How do you figure?) "Basic Decepticon retreat mentality. I know these things." "RAAAAWAAAAR!" I bellowed. I trampled over one drone with my clawed feet, then tore up two others with my teeth, speared another with my tail, and then burned the fifth to a crisp. All the drones began to back up, clearly terrified. (Did we win?) asked Sludge. KAPEOW! "RAWAIAIRAUARAR!" we cried as we flew skyward. After we hit the ground, I looked up to see an odd sight. Hovering above the drones was a medium sized Cybertronian fighter cruiser. (That ship looks familiar) said Scorn. (How do you not recognize it?) Slag asked rudely. (Lockdown) I muttered. The ship belonged to none other than Megatron's hired help, the most ruthless and successful bounty hunter in the universe, Lockdown. The ship's entrance way extended to reveal the bot himself, along with his cronies, Stinger and Junkheap. "Well, well, well. What do we have here?" said Junkheap. "Looks like Megatron's mindless drones didn't even get one Autobum." Stinger said. "Yes, and it seems those who have decided to stay and fight will become part of my collection once again. "GRRRRR" Slag growled. Before the Dinobots had joined with Optimus' forces, Slag, Swoop, Scorn, and I had been prisoners on Lockdown's ship. When he first came to Earth to receive a bounty on Prowl, Optimus' second-in-command, Optimus went into the ship to see if he could any equipment of use against Lockdown. Instead, he found us. Ohh, the look on Lockdown's face when he saw us charge into him. "It's time that we settle the score boys." he said. Swoop responded with a wind blast with his wings, which sent all but the four most powerful drones into the sky. He then promptly burnt all of them to ash. "RIAARAIARAIW!" Swoop cried. "I don't think it will be that easy boss" said Junkheap. "It will be fine Heap. They're just a bunch of dumb reptiles." Stinger said jokingly. "GRRRRRR" Slash hissed. "Grimlock, while they are busy gloating, move in!" Jetfire radioed. I answered with this: "RAOAOAOOAOOARRR!" I breathed fire at their ship, causing all three to dodge out of the way. "Perfect." I thought to myself. As soon as Lockdown hit the dirt, Slag charged into him, barreling through two houses, and pinning him against the third. I ran towards a drone, who seemed bigger and stronger than most of the others. He proved to be much less. He went down in one tail stab. Stinger was trying to hold off Swoop, but to no avail, as the he flew up and around into the trees beside the road, sending them crashing into Stinger. "Ughh, get these off of me!" Slash had managed to cut off the arms and head of the smaller drone while Sludge had destroyed his opponent by stepping on him. Junkheap had decided to try to tangle with Scorn, which was a bad idea on his part. Within thirty seconds, Scorn had pinned him to the road with his clawed feet. "Get off me you overgrown gatorbot!" Scorn responded with a "RYAYRARYAAOAR!" right in his face. I transformed after a quick smell for any more cons. "Alright, I'm going to help Slag with gun face, Swoop and Scorn you can come with, the rest of you make sure these bozos don't move. When we get back, trash their ship." (Understood, Grimlock) said Slash. I then followed Slag's plow marks that he had made pushing Lockdown into the small wood next to the road. I soon began to hear the sounds of a Cybertronian wrestling match. I quickly hurried through the trees, only to find Slag pinning Lockdown against a tree. "Arrgh! Let me go beast!" Slag responded with a hard head-butt into Lockdown. "Oof!" he cried. "Alright Slag, it's my turn now." I said. "Wait up!" Swoop cried, as he and Scorn hurried in pursuit. Slag backed away from Lockdown. I then put my mace to his forehead. "Here's how this is going to work you overpaid pirate. I am going to knock you out, then knock your two pals out, and then-" "Then what? Let Optimus use his highly renowned torture skills to get some info out of me?" Lockdown interrupted. I then swung my mace, making his body go limp. WHAM! "Exactly." I replied smugly.

Grimlock is the leader of the Autobot specialist team known as the Dinobots. All the Dinobots have unique qualities to their dinosaur modes, making them different than the original type and they all can breathe fire when in their dinosaur forms. They all also have brown and gray coloring and are larger than average Cybertronians. Grimlock is one of Optimus' most trusted advisors, although they can be at each other's throats from time to time. Grimlock values strength above all else when it comes to waging war. Tactical analysis has never gotten him anywhere. Grimlock also values compassion and emotional strength, true to his Autobot core. He uses a double-ended Cybertronian mace, perfect for taking out droves of enemies. Grimlock also has a tremendous amount of respect for Optimus and Jetfire, as they both try to help thee not so civilized Dinobots get used to their surroundings. Grimlock transforms into a Cybertronian Tyrannosaurus Rex, with two small curved horns coming from his head. His main foe is Rampage, a member of the Constructicons.
Bio-Subject: Sludge
Sludge is a big lumbering force of Autobot power. While he isn't very smart and seems to step a lot of important equipment, Sludge is very kind and gentle at heart. When he is on the battlefield though he is an immovable juggernaut of Dinobot might. Sludge is the biggest of all the Dinobots, and has a sort of human biker look in robot mode. He wields an extendable Cybertronian broadsword, which becomes his long tail in dinosaur mode. Sludge transforms into a Cybertronian Apatosaurus with four large spikes that protrude from the sides of his back. Sludge's archrival is Scavenger, a member of the Constructicons.
Bio-Subject: Slag
Slag hates everything to do with Decepticons. If he could, he would charge right into their HQ and burn every single one of them to smoking wreck. But he can't, so he does the next best thing in his mind, which is being an unstoppable engine of Dinobot destruction. Slag is the most aggressive of all the Dinobots and he charges into battle head first, literally. His weapon in robot mode is a Cybertronian flail, perfect for his destructive nature. Slag transforms into a Cybertronian Triceratops, with a row of spikes running along his back. His main rival is Scrapper, a member of the Constructicons.
Bio-Subject: Swoop
Swoop is the only aerial member of the Dinobots, and he is very proud of that fact. Another quality that he is proud of is the fact that he is the friendliest of all of his fellow team members. Swoop has a knack for being a diplomat between the Autobots and Dinobots when they come to blows, and that is the reason why he lets Bumblebee ride on him, as they get along quite well. Swoop uses two Cybertronian curvy long swords in robot mode, so he can get enemies on both sides of him when he performs a diving attack. He transforms into a Cybertronian Pteranodon, with four thin tails coming from his rear, giving him a dragon-like appearance. His main enemy is Dirt Boss, a member of the Constructicons.
Bio-Subject: Snarl
Snarl's personality is very much like Slag, meaning that he has a very visible dislike for all things Decepticon. He is also the most gung-ho and mouthy of all the Dinobots, making him a perfect mount for Hound. Snarl is one of the most bulky of the Dinobots, and he prefers to use his hands more than his double-bladed axe, his main weapon of choice. Snarl can also use his fins that he has on his back to charge up for more strength in battle, using them like solar panels. He transforms into a Cybertronian Stegosaurus, with the end of his tail having two rows of spikes run around it. His main enemy is Payload, a member of the Constructicons.
Bio-Subject: Scorn
Scorn is the most fast-thinking of the Dinobots, meaning that he is also trying to come up with new styles for combat. Scorn also is the one Dinobot who spends 80% of his time in dinosaur mode, as he prefers it to walking as a normal Cybertronian. Scorn's main weapons are two arm blades, which form two of his dinosaur mode sails. Scorn transforms into a Cybertronian Spinosaurus, with three sails instead of one. He doesn't just use his mouth to fight in that mode either. He often just rolls over Decepticons, crushing them with his massive body or slicing them with his sails. His main enemy is Hightower, a member of the Constructicons.
Bio-Subject: Slash
Slash is the smallest and smartest of the Dinobots. His robot is also different from the others, as his dinosaur mode claws function as his hands and feet. This also means that they function as his weapons of choice, giving even more time to slice up unknowing Decepticons. Slash using his brains to also take advantage of his speed and agility, making a good combatant in many types of scenarios. Slash transforms into a Cybertronian Utahraptor, with blue-tinted scales that are on his body to look like feathers, similarly to Velociraptors. He is archenemy is Hook, a member of the Constructicons.
