Me: Well, here's another update! Enjoy!
Optimus: Last time on 'Cyber Beast Wars…'
"Goodbye, Optimus!" Tarantulas cackled using Blackarachnia's body.
-The Beast Wars are over, Optimus! You…Lose…-
"Megatrooon!" Megaman DS roared with unbridled fury in his and Optimus's voices before the Pod and Planet Buster exploded.
The brig was silent. Sentinel, Akaneko, and Warp collapsed onto the floor and sobbed hystericaly. Tigertron gently held a crying AirRazor in her arms as the others stared at the sight in shock.
"Big Bot…Big Wolf…?" Cheetor gasped.
"Time for this lady to go…" Blackarachnia whispered as she snuck off while Protoryu and Rattrap went to the static-showing computers.
"Come on…Come on…" Rattrap groaned before Protoryu slugged the side of the computers with his fist and made them work, "T'anks…Computer, report!"
-Alien Construct: Destroyed- a computerized voice spoke as the others approached.
"We don't care for that hunk of junk! Where're Optimus and Megawolf?" Rattrap asked.
-Unit: Optimus Primal and Unit: Megawolf…-
"…Destroyed," Anubis confirmed, earning the sounds of cheering from the Predacons.
"You've done it, Megatron!" Skorponok exclaimed before Megatron pushed him away.
"Dude, I am so excited now that thing's gone!" Diego exclaimed as he slapped Megatron's back with a hearty laugh, "Plus, we don't have to deal with that Optimus guy or the wolf-dude! You're…awesome! Wahoo!"
"Yes…I am good, aren't I?" Megatron chuckled before whacking Diego on the head with his T-Rex head, "But we can discuss my brilliance later. Now, there is work that needs to be done."
"What kind of work?" Shocktail asked.
"The Predacon kind; We must defeat the remaining Maximals while they mourn their dear, departed leader. This will be the final battle!"
"Megatron, sir~~~!" Rospark called as he approached, "There's a Quantum Surge heading for the planet~~~!"
"To your station! Quickly!" Megatron ordered before batting Rospark's arms from his lower area, "And you, I put a restraining order on. You're not to come near me within a 5 yard radius."
"I should've been flying that ship…" Cheetor sniffled while he slumped into his seat as Akaneko hugged him while she sat in his lap.
"Monkey-Bot and Wolf-Bot thought they was doing best," Grimlock said, "Me, Grimlock, respect that."
"And they saved the whole planet doing it," AirRazor added.
"But why didn't they eject?" Tigertron pondered before Rattrap slid up to him on his seat.
"Good question! And I jest know who ta ask…" Rattrap agreed as he stood up and took his blaster out at where Blackarachnia once was, "Slag! That sneaky ball of legs took it on the lamb!"
"I'll hunt her down…" Protoryu and Tigertron growled as they turned to Beast Mode.
"You do that and we can work on getting that teme Tarantulas out of her so we can dissect his Spark!" Sentinel growled before a siren went off, "Alert! Quantum Surge detected in Vector 5-9-7!"
"Ohh…Hold it, Stripes! You too, Fire-Spitter!" Rattrap exclaimed.
"Yeah. We've got a bigger problem…" Shock gulped.
Sirens blared as the area shook. The light flickered on and off at a rapid pace while the Maximals got into their positions. The MaxiNavis went to work on their abilities except Warp and Truth who sat down at one computer, helping as much as they could in their own way. Duke activated the shields and set them at full power. Shock focused all his energy into the ship and made sure it stay fully charged. Sentinel activated the security system and sat at one computer to help.
"Exterior shield at maximum!" Duke called before going out to check on the Prisoner Bay.
"We've got power fluctuations all over the board! They won't hold!" AirRazor called.
"Then make dem hold!" Rattrap snapped, "Optimus and Megawolf didn't blow themselves up jest so we can gets slagged by space junk!"
"Impact in 5…4…3…2…" Tigertron counted down.
Outside, the Quantum Surge shot out at them. The land rumbled around them and caused a few rock to land on the Axalon and fall off, making Cheetor fall out of his seat. Nearby, AirRazor was knocked back by a small explosion on her monitor. Soon, nearly everyone was knocked out of their seats by the shakes. Small beams of light ripped through the ship without damaging it. Cheetor, Rattrap, Grimlock, Protoryu, Bumblebee, Snowstalker, and AirRazor screamed out in agony as their bodies erupted in light. In the Medical Bay, Dinobot, Rhinox, and Roll screamed as their bodies were hit with the light, glowing. The bodies of Inferno and Tarantulas glowed inside the Prison Bay while Bifrost cried out in agony from the light hitting him. Duke grunted as he collapsed in the Prisoner Bay, his armor slowly changing with the light engulfing him…
The Darksyde rumbled and began to fall apart even more than it already had from the Planet Destroyer. Megatron screamed as he fell off his seat and onto the floor. The other Predacons were lucky they were not in the same room as him due to half of it being filled with lava. They were all at other parts of the base, making sure the shield held. The light erupted through the Darksyde, encasing Megatron, Dinoshout, Terrorsaur, Diego, and Skorponok in the light. Megatron collapsed to his knees. The PredNavis except on the ship screamed out as their bodies were encased in the light.
"Wh-What is happening to me?" Megatron screamed in agony until he passed out.
The surge soon passed. Blackarachnia groaned as she slowly came to. She looked around to see she was still on the Axalon.
"What hit me…?"
'The Quantum Surge…It must have knocked everyone on the ship Off-Line…' Tarantulas said, 'You must reach my body before the Maximals revive!'
"Anything to get you out of my head!" Blackarachnia growled as she walked off.
In the brig, various wires were exposed and sparked every now and then. A few pieces of the structure were scattered about. Tigertron was the first awaken.
"Ohhh…" Tigertron groaned before he saw Waspinator slowly get up, "Waspinator…Are you damaged?"
"Negative, Tiger-Bot," Waspinator replied, "Except for zzzpeech azzz uzzzual."
"I wouldn't care to go through that again," Tigertron said as he slowly rose while holding the left side of his head.
"Same here…" Akaneko whined as she got up, "…The others!"
"Hey…Lookin' fer me?" a voice asked.
"By the Matix…" Tigertron gasped.
The three turned and gawked. Standing before them was a figure that resembled Rattrap, but his structure was of a crimson and bronze metal on his back. He had bronze and silver rat head-like shoulder guards, metal arms, legs, and face with blue added. He had Rattrap's visible 'brain,' but orange now, and his buckteeth. Over his left chest plate was a brown armor.
"What? What's wit you three?" Rattrap asked as he motioned to his lower area, "My gear box hangin' out or somthin'?"
"Jumpin' gyros! What happened to you?" Cheetor's voice gasped.
They all turned to see Cheetor…or what looked like him. He still had yellow and cheetah spots on him, but they were on his chest, upper arms, back, and side of his waist. His hands were halves of a silver cheetah head with red optics and metallic green ears. His upper legs, lower area, and stomach were all metallic green. The lower half of his legs were silver. His face had reshaped a bit as well. It now had a green face and a yellow scuff of hair on his chin. His helmet was gold and emerald with an emerald in the center of the forehead that had the Maximal symbol in it.
"You should talk, Cheetor!" Protoryu growled.
"Dragon-Bot, too!" Grimlock added.
They turned to see Grimlock and Protoryu had changed as well. Protoryu still had his glasses and hair, but his head was reshaped with a dragon theme to it, having three white spikes on each side and one red spike on the top. He had a white torso with a black and white orb in the center resembling his NaviMark along with two red ones near the shoulders with gold near the sides of his waist. He wore red shoulder guards and his upper arms and legs were black while the armor below them was red. His hands were clawed and black with dragon claws on the backs on his wrists pointing towards the head. He had a wing-shaped blade extending from his knees with a blue jewel on the knees. He also had two large red and black wings with gold horns. Grimlock was now a T-Rex with a bronze head and feet. On his sides were rocket-like engines while his entire body-sans his arms, upper legs, and tail were all silver, the rest was topaz with his tail having a silver tip with a topaz claw at the end. He let out a powerful roar and blew his normal flames, although they were now blue.
"Oh…" AirRazor groaned.
"AirRa…" Tigertron began before gasped, his entire face turning red from a blush.
AirRazor had a white belly while her somewhat large chest and slender hips, straight down to her blue shoe-like pointed feet, were a metallic gold, the left breast silver. Her upper arms and shoulders were a metallic blue while her lower arms and hands were metallic gold with metallic blue bird claws. Her wings were now white with red ends. At the backs was a metallic blue and silver rocket engines on where the wings began. Her head had the same soft optics, blue she now wore a metallic gold facemask and her head was metallic read.
"What?" AirRazor asked before noticing her hands, "Well…This is interesting."
"Oneechan, you're pretty!" Snowstalker, now resembling a White Tiger-version of Cheetor's new form, exclaimed as she ran over and hugged her.
"Snowstalker?" Tigertron gawked.
"Where izzz Bumble-Bot?" Waspinator asked.
"Right here…" Bumblebee groaned as he got up.
He had reformatted as well. His torso now had a black and metallic gold Bee head with the gold parts being its mandibles and antennae with the 'tongue' black with a blue jewel in it over his lower region. His upper arms and upper legs with pitch black. His lower arms and legs were metallic gold. His bee anus was a metallic gold and black with four clear-blue insect wings. His head was normal, but now had insect eye-like pilot goggles on his forehead. The ones with new forms looked at each other and said the same thing in unison.
"What the slaggin' Pit happened to us?" they exclaimed before Sentinel held up a mirror to show their reflections.
"Hey…I'm…gorgeous!" Rattrap awed.
"Oh wow!" Snowstalker exclaimed, "I look like Cheetor-niisan!"
"Me, Grimlock, like…" Grimlock roared, "Grimlock: Maximize!"
Grimlock let out a roar as his body shifted. His lower body opened up like wings and went up to his upper body. The upper body split and converted into shoulder guards, his robot hands emerging from them. His tail popped off and attached to his right arm, making it a sword. His head molded into his torso and his normal head popped out, now having a gold crown with the Maximal Symbol on the front. His sword-tail ignited in flames Until Sentinel activated the Fire System and put it out.
"Is this…me?" AirRazor pondered before turning to Tigertron with Snowstalker, "How do we look?"
"Uh…" Tigertron stuttered as he just stared at her.
"…" Grimlock waved a hand over his face, "Me, Grimlock, think you broke him, Tiger-Bot."
"Ultra gear! This is sweet!" Cheetor exclaimed.
"Wow…" Akaneko purred as she pressed herself against his side, "I'm a lucky feline then…"
"Why?" Cheetor asked.
"Oh you silly…" Akaneko giggled as she swooned a bit.
"Hm…" Protoryu examined himself, "For some reason…I feel stronger than ever in this form."
"The surge must have mutated your super-structures," Warp gasped.
"What do they look like in Beast Mode?" Truth asked in Sentinel's arms.
"…Beast Mode!" those with a new form roared.
Cheetor changed into a metallic Cheetah with his lower body and hind legs being the same as his Robot Mode's colors, his upper body was a metallic gold with silver legs and green paws with a silver cheetah head, now with red optics and green ears. The sides of his body now had metal plates on them with the Cyber Planet Key Port on both sides of his head. Snowstalker was the same, except she was a metallic green and silver with black tiger stripes.
Rattrap changed into a metallic rat. He had a long silver tail with a flat red end and small metal feet, the elbows of his front legs now having bronze and metallic red wheels. His hind legs were large bronze wheels with a metallic red trim. His upper body was a metallic red with his head a bronze/silver fusion with green optics. His lower half was bronze.
Protoryu turned into a twin-headed dragon. Grimlock turned back into a metal T-Rex. AirRazor's hand turned into her feet as he legs slid into her body, hidden under a metal back. Her wings were the same while her tail feathers were fused into one with a red end and a white majority. He head was pure white with blue optics surrounded by red and yellow. Bumblebee turned into a metallic gold and black bumblebee.
"Now that's gorgeous!" Cheetor grinned at his reflection.
"I'll say…" Akaneko purred in her Beast Mode, nuzzling her head under the metal cheetah's head.
"Ha! I'm a rat wit wheels!" Rattrap exclaimed as his wheels replaced his feet and twin engine pipes appeared above his rear end.
"Hey…I don't need to call out my Cyber Planet Key to have my jets!" Cheetor exclaimed as the silver parts of his waist extended to reveal his jets.
"Me, Grimlock, don't get engines," the T-Rex said as his feet turned into skates and the engines on his lower body faced outwards.
"Oh my…" AirRazor gasped as the blue parts on her wings turned into floatation devices and her legs folded into her body.
"Yay! I can fly now!" Snowstalker squealed as she gained the same jets as Cheetor did.
"Hmm…Now this is cool," Bumblebee said as his legs went into his body, his wings turning into jet-like formation, and his tongue emerged as a cockpit of sorts.
"…" Protoryu simply nodded as his body shifted into a racecar-like form.
Suddenly, the jets on Grimlock and Snowstalker ignited. Both tried to stop, but began to fly all around the room, screaming. Bumblebee and AirRazor tried to chase, but their forms just rammed into a wall and their heads got stuck, making Waspinator fall over laughing with Shock. The two then flew and nearly hit Rattrap, who drove out of the way at the last second, hitting a CR Chamber and flipping onto his back. Protoryu, Grimlock, Cheetor, and Snowstalker ended up in a large pile.
"Dis…Is goin' ta take some getting' use to…" Rattrap moaned as his tail hit him in the face.
"What the slag?" Dinobot exclaimed.
Dinobot was now a metallic blue Utahraptor with silver blades emerging from his body. He had gold items on his sides with a triangle at the ends. His legs were bulkier and had treads on the backs of the upper parts of his legs and metallic blue and black wheels for his upper elbows. The lower parts of his legs folded into the upper parts as they shifted to form treads as his arms turned into the smaller wheels. The gold parts covered his neck and head, revealing a slot for his scarlet optics and the end being a drill. He drove around a little with his drill spinning. He made a few holes before transforming. He resembled his original form, except his legs now had the gold over them as leg armor with normal clawed hands and lower arms emerging from the bulkier upper arms. His helmet now had a visor that could go over his red optics. He looked over at Roll, moaning in pain as she rested. She was now a metallic pink and black fox with jade-green optics and a metallic green tail tip and metallic gold tail. In the CR Chamber, Rhinox saw in his Stasis Nap Megaman DS cursing Megatron's name before they and the Planet Destroyer exploded. In the center of the explosion, two energy forms of Megawolf and Optimus flew off for parts unknown, revealing Optimus's Spark and Megaman's NaviMark.
"Get up!" Dinobot snarled as he forced the container open and awoke Rhinox.
"Oh…" the rhino Transformer groaned before seeing himself in a mirror.
His face was orange, yet still remained the same. His normal bulky appearance seemed to have replaced some of it with a muscular chest with a green jewel just above his left chest, which was orange and metallic gray. His arms were black and metallic gray along with his legs, which had metallic light-blue and metallic gray versions of his chainguns. He shifted into B east Mode and noticed his body was mainly metallic light-blue with black, and metallic-gray. The back of his hind legs had treads and the back of his front legs had skis. The skis went over his feet and his hind lower legs went into the hind upper legs, letting them go down and turn into the treads. He drove around a bit before changing into Robot Mode.
"What the Inferno?" Rhinox pondered.
"Uh…You guys okay in 'ere?" Rattrap asked before he noticed the new forms they all, minus the still-fainted Rhythm, had, "Uh…You guys too?"
"Where's Optimus?" Rhinox asked.
"Gone…Trans-Warp explosion…" Rattrap sighed sadly.
"Tell me what happened…all of it!"
Blackarachnia tapped her foot as she waited for the door to open. When it finally went up, she entered the Prison Chambers. She looked around and saw three cells-which were actually circles with laser beams surrounding the prisoner-were active.
"Yo! Blackarachnia!"
The spider turned to one of the cells and gasped. Inside the cell was a NetNavi with Bifrost's PredMark. She was roughly eighteen with an ample figure. She had a tuff of sea-green hair sticking out of the front of her helmet, almost as if it was a part of it. She had deep, water-blue eyes, and a white jumpsuit. She wore a blue armor-like bikini with a blue and gold jacket. She wore long blue gloves with gold rings ending at near her shoulders with white gloves. Her long blue heeled-boots had gold rings just above the calf and near her hips. The heels and the tip of the boot-heels were white. Her helmet was blue and white with four fin-like parts sticking out and pointing to the ground. On her back was a long white pole with a red spear on the end, holding a blue jewel in the center.
"Bifrost?"
"Fairy Leviathan now, Blackie," the girl giggled with a wink.
'Interesting…That Quantum Wave caused hi…I mean her…to change and evolve. Along with my body and the body of Inferno…' Tarantulas noted, seeing his body as a cube with bits of violet, black, and gold, before turning off the shield.
"Oh thank evil," Leviathan stretched, "So…We take them both or what?"
"We're just taking the stupid one," Blackarachnia replied.
"…So which one?"
"Tarantulas's body."
"Ohh…! Got it!" Leviathan giggled before picking the box up with one hand and about to walk off.
"Hold it," a voice said.
The two turned to see a figure emerge from the shadows, dropping Duke's broken helmet. The figure was a boy around 16 in a black jumpsuit. He wore a black jacket with yellow pockets and yellow ring around the neckline that had no sleeves and ended at his waist. He wore a white belt with a strange device in a holster. He wore red and yellow gauntlets and boots. He took out the device and one side opened to form a green sword of energy. He wore a black helmet with red, gold, and white spikes on it and deep green eyes.
"Who are you, sexy?" Leviathan asked, hearts in her eyes.
"Zero," the figure replied, "Formerly 'Duke.' Now neither of you are leaving, understand?"
"Aw…Couldn't you be lenient just one time?" Leviathan asked seductively.
"No."
"Aw…Sorry than, sexy," Leviathan winked before Zero was encased in ice, "Shall we?"
As the two left, they didn't notice Inferno's body repair itself. Inferno finished after a few cycles and saw himself in the ice Zero was in. He was taller, he could tell. His arms now had drills form hands that segmented into three claws. On the backs of his metallic orange upper arms were six metal ant legs. His shoulders and upper legs were a metallic red whole his body was a metallic green. The rest of his body except for his metallic orange back was a dark purple. His head had a goatee now with yellow optics. Three green jewels shined on his forehead with silver horns.
"I must return to the royalty!"
He transformed into a metallic orange and metallic red ant with silver legs. He walked off.
"Oh…My cranium…" Terrorsaur groaned as he slowly rose, "Huh?"
He looked in a mirror nearby. From what he saw at a few flashes of sparks from a nearby visible wire made his orange optics widen. He screamed and ran into a figure with a red visor.
"Hey! Watch it!" Skorponok's voice emanated from the figure.
"No time! Look!" Terrorsaur argued as he showed Skorponok a mirror and made them both scream and run off, hitting two figures.
"You imbeciles!" Dinoshout roared from the figure Terrorsaur ran into.
"Wahoo! That was awesome!" Diego's voice laughed form the other figure as they walked into the main chamber, only to see the shaded figure of Megatron, but different.
"What happened to you, Megatron?" Terrorsaur asked.
"I've changed…for the better, yes…" Megatron replied, his red optics glowing maliciously.
"…And I guess we all woke up as…Transmetals…" Rattrap spoke.
"Transmetals?" TwinFox repeated, "I like it."
"Does Roll know what happened to Megawolf?" Rhinox asked.
"No. She's still in Stasis, remember?" Rhythm replied.
"A definite improve, though in your case it is not difficult," Dinobot scoffed.
"Ohhh…I knew we should-a left you Off-Line, Lizard Butt!" Rattrap snapped, earning a growl from Dinobot until Rhinox stopped him.
"Stand down, Dinobot."
"By what right do you command me?" Dinobot growled, "With Optimus gone, I should be…"
He never finished since Rhinox grasped him by the throat. He slowly lifted the bot into the air, making him dangle on his legs. He brought the Transmetal Raptor close to his face.
"I'm in a baaad mood…Understand?" Rhinox growled.
"Uh-huh…" Dinobot squeaked before he was dropped.
The other Maximals agreed to not tick off the Transmetal Rhino for a bit…especially since he had a sword and two chainguns. Outside, Blackarachnia tossed out Tarantulas's Transmetal Body from the ventilation system. The PredNavi and Predacon got out.
'Careful, widow!'
"Easy with the name-calling, Ugly, or I'll self-destruct and slag us both!"
The two girls jumped down from the exits. They began to look around at the devestation caused by the Planet Buster. Fairy Leviathan let out a long whistle.
"Things have changed around here…" Blackarachnia examined.
"The more things change, the more they stay the same," a voice said before AirRazor got her with a fist.
"Looks like Rattrap was right…" Tigertron examined as he held Leviathan at gunpoint.
"Grrr…" the black widow growled as AirRazor aimed the missiles in her arms at the arachnid.
"Go on, spider; make a move. Make my day…" AirRazor ordered before a blast knocked the two Maximals away.
"The queen will be pleased to know I am going to capture one of the Maximals," Inferno chuckled as he entered the Medical Bay, "Hm?"
He looked around. Not a single Maximal in it. He heard a feral growl in a corner before dark-green optics shined in it. He gulped before something grabbed him and dragged him into the shadows, screaming. His head suddenly moved closer to his anus and six wheels emerged from the anus, his moved head revealing two drills. They began to spin and Inferno managed to get out of its grip and drill to the outside. Rhythm walked in a few minutes later to see Roll still in Stasis on the bed and a hole in the floor.
"What was that?" Rhinox pondered.
"Sounded like AirRazor and Tigertron jest found the spider," Protoryu growled.
"Rattrap, Cheetor, Protoryu, Bumblebee, Waspinator, Grimlock, Dinobot; go out there," Rhinox ordered, "The rest of us will try to repair the defenses. And where is Duke?"
"Here…" the black and red figure replied, shivering, as he walked in, "A-a-a-and it's Z-Zero now!"
"Whoa…" Warp awed with a faint blush.
"Megatron! Am I glad to see…" Blackarachnia began before the Transmetal Megatron slapped her with the back of his hand, nearby the Transmetal Terrosaur grinned.
"Trecherous spider!" Megatron spat as he aimed his tail blaster at the spider, "Did you really think that I didn't know what you planned?"
"Not a good idea."
"And why is that?"
"While Optimus and Megawolf's parts are floating around in space, the other Maximals are fully functional except for that Roll femme," Blackarachnia explained, "What's more is that nearly all their members are now Transmetal."
"Transmetal?" Megatron repeated.
"Hear it in the ventilations shafts."
"Ah…You are a clever one…" Megatron growled as he pulled the black widow to his face, "But betray me again, and you shall wish you never came On-Line. Do you understand?"
"I…Understand."
"And where is Bifrost?" Terrorsaur asked.
"Here. And it's Fairy Leviathan now," the former crocodile replied as she walked over.
"Whoa…Frag, you still a male?"
"Female, you jerk," Leviathan scowled before kicking the Pred between the legs before they all hid as the Transmetal picked to go outside emerged from the elevator.
"Terrorsaur: Open Fire!" Megatron ordered as Terrorsaur flew over them and fired.
"Incoming!" Cheetor exclaimed before they all jumped out of the way with Snowstalker going over the cliff.
"Slaggart!" Dinobot snarled before shooting Terrorsaur out of the sky with his lasers.
"Eek! Ah…uh…Beast Mode!" Snowstalker screamed.
She shifted into Beast Mode and activated her jets. She whooped as she began to fly around. She quickly landed back with the others and Maximized.
"Blackarachnia, take the cats," Megatron ordered.
'Forget the Maximals! Get my body out of here!' Tarantulas snapped silently.
"No way…You-ugh!-heard what…Megatron said!" Blackarachnia grunted.
'Do it!' Tarantulas snapped.
"Blackarachnia, fire! Fire!" Megatron roared as AirRazor and Tigertron slowly got up before Blackarachnia left with Tarantulas's body and Leviathan on her back, "How dare you…!"
"For the royalty!" Inferno cackled as he charged at the Maximals.
Dinobot turned and shot his eye lasers at the Pred. The ant ducked and was about to drill into Dinobot when Zero sliced them off. He then grabbed the ant and threw him over to the Predacons. Megatron began to fire upon them as Terrorsaur had an air fight with AirRazor, Cheetor, and Snowstalker. Rattrap blocked the lasers with a hubcap shield from his armor.
"Skid this action…Megajerk's got himself some kind of, uh, nutty facelift!" Rattrap exclaimed.
"He look like me, Grimlock," the T-Rex Transmetal growled, "But me, Grimlock, king!"
"Then we shall see, Grimlock, yes…" Megatron replied, "Beast Mode!"
"Beast Mode!" Grimlock roared.
Both went into Beast Mode. The two engaged their engines and wheels while glaring at each other. Rattrap smirked.
"Oh…So ya wanna play Chicken, huh?" Rattrap asked as he jumped on Grimlock's back, "Okay. Let's play! Psst, King-Stupid, listen to dis…"
"…Me, Grimlock, like…" Grimlock nodded before the two charged at each other.
"Now, fools, feel my power!" Megatron declared.
The two got closer as Rattrap moved his way to Grimlock's tail. He switch to Beast Mode and engaged his wheels while grabbing onto his tail. Rattrap straightened his own tail so it was parallel to the ground. Grimlock skidded to a halt while turning so that Megatron tripped on Rattrap's tail. The T-Rex Transmetal skidded away a few meters and hit a rock. The two Maximals transformed and faced Megatron.
"Power, you got…" Grimlock began.
"Brains is another story," Rattrap finished.
"Megatron: Terrorize!" the T-Rex roared before transforming.
"Oh no…" Rattrap paled before he and the other Maximals on the land hid behind a few boulders as Megatron open fired, "Aw…Give me a break!"
His reply came in the form of Terrorsaur. He rammed into Megatron after AirRazor had blasted him out of the sky. The flying Maximals landed and transformed. Everyone took out their weapons and aimed at them.
"I believe it is time for a tactical retreat," Megatron growled, "Beast Mode!"
Four rockets appeared on Inferno's back once his metallic orange armor opened. Megatron engaged his engines and the three flew off. The remaining Maximals, minus Roll and Soraookami-who was in his former shared room with Megawolf, whining-, jumped down. Rattrap shook some nuts out of his head.
"Everyone alright?" Rhythm asked.
"Yeah, yeah. Not nothing a hot oil bath won't cure. But if you ask me, the Beast Wars just got a whole lot weirder," Rattrap replied as he watched the Preds retreat.
A heavy rain struck down upon the land, lightning flashing and thunder crackling like fireworks. In a nearby area, four Pods were damaged slightly. One came On-Line.
-Scanning for LifeForms. All systems unable to comply…- the Pod's voice crackled before a shaking metal hand ripped out of the top of one Pod.
Me: I know you're hating me right now, but next chapter may surprise you.
