Chapter 29: Starscream's and Pan's Nightmare

After the Kaiju Wars incident, Pan and Halo decided to take a few days of relaxation. Halo took a trip across America, visiting the most spectaculer sights, honoring the land of the bald eagle. He visits the monument of Lady Liberty on Ellis Island, in New York City. He flew atop her head, and sits down to enjoy the view of the city, remembering the days when he was Godzilla, and the times he met the Z-Fighters and the Autobots. He remembers the day when he first fought against the Kaiju cyborg, Gigan and his accomplice, King Ghidorah. The day when he fought against his evil clone brother, Space Godzilla. The day he fought against his robotic twin, containing the bones of his relative, Mechagodzilla 3. And the day he fought against the space warrior, Monster X, transforming into the warrior dragon, Keizer Ghidorah. "The Universe has many surprises that fascinate me in so many ways. All the Kaiju that try to wreck this world, don't even have the strength to fight me any more. Damn. The one thing that made me for who I am now are the Saiyans. Goku's pretty strong compared to Vegeta. Gohan, Goten, best bros. Trunks and Bulla, they're pretty good. And Pan? The moment she stared into me, I look into those eyes, and they said, 'Dude, I flippin' care.'! Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots are the greatest two. They all showed me that friendship is more important than being the strongest in the Universe. I bet I never even learned that when I was Godzilla; the Kaiju that brought terror on everything or everyone that stood in my way, to being the most powerful. Godzilla, the neutral guardian of Earth. I think, that when Pan and I first met, my Kaiju heart skipped a beat." In the plains on the outskirts of South City, Pan and Optimus took a drive across the road, where he told stories about the oldest of histories on Cybertron, before he was a Prime. "As Megatron's forces ravaged across our planet, I seek the help of our creator, Primus. I told him of the lives taken and the escalation of war, purging all around us. So Primus bestowed the Matrix of Leadership to me, and as of that day, I lead the Autobots to victory, only bring the war upon this planet." "Megatron spilled alot of innocent blood, just to gain control of Cybertron?" "Yes. And that's why we must keep Megatron from getting his hands on the Kaijn; using them as weapons of oblivion, to control the Universe, and destroying your planet." Optimus dropped off Pan at her house. "We'll be there to help, Optimus. Besides, my Grandpa Goku can handle anything." Videl saw Pan out the window and called her in. "Pan! Dinner's ready! Come clean your plates before Goku eats all the food again!" "Okay Mama! See later, Optimus!" "See you tomorrow, Pan." Pan jumped out of her seatbelt, and Optimus drove back to Capsule Corp. The day has past, and our heros and heroins are fast asleep. The Autobots and Dinobots powered down for another day of Kaijin searching. But as our friends doze off to dreamland, Megatron trains, until the comes when he faces Optimus Prime.

On the Nemesis, Megatron trained his ass to the brink, readying for the day where once again, he and Optimus Prime will meet face to face. Starscream watched him for a brief moment, and walked down the hall to his quarters. Knockout saw him from across the hall and followed him. "So Commander Starscream, if you have another one of your atupid elaborate schemes that'll almost get us blown up, smashed into the ground, or have Lord Megatron punish us severely, in any form of his choosing, count me out of it." Starscream kept his optics down the hall to his quarters, ignoring Knockout. "I know you may include me on your schemes or whatever, I'm just saying. I'd rather stay here on the ship, treating the troops wounds, and provide current research in my lab, than be out there on that insect planet, getting us almost killed, and almost having our most powerful and wise Lord Megatron, ripping our heads off and putting them on a pike, cutting our inactive bodies open and spilling our Energon to the floor until our sparks fall into his hands!" As Starscream reached the door of his quarters, he went to a halt and clenched his left hand into a fist. "So, I'll be in here, on the ship, while you manage things down there, ignoring me." Then Starscream punched Knockout in the face. "Then consider yourself 'unpartnered' you asshole!" He stepped into his room, slammed the door, and locked it. He paced across the room, thinking on how to defeat the Z-Fighters and the Autobots, but they never worked in his head, for he underestimated them once and slammed his fist into the wall. "Curse those impudent Saiyans! Curse the Autobots! Damn you Megatron! You've kept us in the dark for two long, keeping us from personally destroying them! I should be leader of the Decepticons! I should be the true heir to the future empire you dreamed of creating!" He jumped up, and landed on his bed. "Why should I take your commands, when you should take mine! Ugh!" He laid on his back and looked on the ceiling where he placed an "All Hail Megatron" poster. He took his Scatter Blaster and shot the poster, burning it into rust. "Heh. You're not the boss of me." He laid his head down on the bed and powered down. He too drifted off into dreamland. His dream was that he was on Cybertron, in the pits of Kaon, and he was the new leader of the Decepticons. He dreapted of Megatron, falling in the hands of him only. He wore a crown and cape and the soldiers cheered, "All hail Starscream!" He laughed in triumph. "Yes! Cheer for your leader! Decepticons, your new ruler has arrived!" His dream was his paradise. On Earth, the Z-Fighters encountered their dreams as well. But for Pan, her dream will soon become a nightmare.

In her dream, she was surronded in a spatial dimension, where she faced thousands of weird elements. "This place looks like an old man spat his wise brain all over the place." She saw a flying dragon eye, but was eaten by a tree-eyed fish, and was also eaten by a serpent with six chicken legs. "That is gross. What else is in here?" She saw a door with a grass cube symbol. She opened it and she saw the world of Minecraft. "Okay, this is getting totally crazy." She closed the door and moved on. As she wandered across the dimension, she saw a purple and black door, pulsing an ominous and dark aura. "This wasn't here before." She opened it and became horrified from what was inside. The Earth, purged in fire, skeletons were piled, and on top of it, was a dark figure. He turned to Pan, and spoke in a demonic voice. "Join me or die!" His arm extended and it stretched towards her. Pan closed the door behind her, but the arm broke through. She flew away before it can grab her, and the dark figure chased her across the dimension. As he flew out of the room, dark gas spewed and began to spread across the dimension, turning the weird, but friendly things, into undead Cybertronians; Terrorcons. They growled and snarled, thirsting for Energon. They all followed the figure, chasing Pan. She tried to fly faster, but the figure grew in size and grabbed hold of her. She struggled to get free, but no dice. She asked the figure, struggling in pain. "Who are you?!" The figure spoke. "I am the Chaos Bringer. The destroyer of worlds." The figure began to lose his sillhoette, and his appearance gave Pan a growing fear. It was the being that Grimlock saw in his visions. "I AM UNICRON!" He released her, and the Terrorcons piled on her. She got free and lew in front of the giant. "Get out of my dream!" She used a Ki blast at Unicron's face, but the blast turned into Dark Energon and splattered on her arm when she tried to shield her face. It began to spread all over her body, and it slowly reaches her neck. "What do you want from me?!" Unicron shrunk to human size and raised her head by her chin. "Your soul." The Terrorcons moved on her, and the Dark Energon began to spread up to her face. She screamed in pain and terror.

In Starscream's dream, he was ruler of Cybertron and the Decepticons. there were statues and posters of him, in honor of his glory. "All hail Starscream!" The troops cheered his name, and he sniffed in all the glory. "Yes! All shall bow before me!" Then a figure yelled in the distance of the crowd. "STARSCREAM!" He heard the voice. It was familiar. "Who dares summon me?! I summon those only!" The crowd spread to the two sides of the Kaon arena, forming a huge gap between Starscream, and the figure. It was Megatron, alive and well. "Wha... Megatron?! But you were...!" "I have returned to take what's mine! I challenge you!" Starscream laughed under his breath. "Heh. I guess I can kill you again. Challenge accepted!" He used a Glass Cannon as his weapon, and Megatron used his trusty Riot Cannon. The two Cybertronians fought to the death. For Starscream, it some how became easy. Megatron grew weaker, with every hit he took, and fell to the ground. "Now, the time has come for you to join with the Allspark! DIE!" He threw the tip of his Energon Sword towards Megatron's head, but suddenly, he caught it. "What?!" Megatron broked the sword in two and laughed. As Megatron laughed, Starscream's world began to crumble. Statues turned to rust dust, and posters burst into flames. His followers turned into skeletons and rusted into nothing. "Impossible! I rule this world! I AM LORD STARSCREAM!" He threw a punch on Megatron's head, but it had no effect. He grabbed Starscream's wrist, and turned his hand to rust, making him cry in agony. "AAAAAAAAAAH! NO!" The world he created shattered into a dark dimension, and Megatron grew in size, forming into a demonic creature. Starscream had to transform and fly for his life, but his transformation is blocked some how. "Why can't I...?" He noticed that his hip was rusted, and a part was missing. "My T-Cog!" Megatron lifted his hand and grabbed Starscream. He struggled to get free. He asked, "Why are you doing this to me?!" Megatron replied with an evil response, in a demonic voice. "I WANT YOUR SPARK!" His appearance turned into a newer form, a form you readers are familiar with; a Transformer seen in the 1985 Transformers movie. His canine teeth grew sharper and demonic-like. He laughed as Starscream screamed in pain.

At the same time, both Pan and Starscream awaken, frightened with fear. In her room, Pan got out of her sheets and sat on the edge of her bed. Her feared state made her tear up and said, "What's happening to our Mother Earth? Is everyone I love going to die?" She cried, and the tears that she shed dripped to the floor. On the Nemesis, Starscream lifted off his bed and fell to his knees with fear in his eyes. "No. We're all gonna die. Megatron's gone mad, and he's going to kill us all. All that I hoped to gain, has slipped away!" He slammed his fist to the floor, and yelled to the sky. "AAAAAAAAAAH! MEGATRON!" In the lab of the ship, a large boulder contained a huge amount of Dark Energon crystals. Megatron looked upon the dark matter at close range. "The blood of Unicron, right here on my ship. I shall raise an army of the undead to destroy my enemies." Soundwave approached Megatron with extreme caution, trying not get exposed. "Megatron. Even if can raise the undead with the dark matter, you'll have no way of controlling them." Megatron took a hold of a shard of Dark Energon, and pulled it from the chunk. "If there is no possible way, then only one option remains." He pointed the shard towards his chest. "Megatron! No!" He stabbed himself with it, and it began to spread inside his body. Megatron shook and howled in pain, but instead of dying, the Dark Energon fused his Energon and his spark. Megatron gained a symbiotic link with the blood of Unicron, and power flowed through his veins. "Yes. The power. The absolute power!" He gave a powerful roar that spread from the ship, to the outside, where Optimus heard it from Capsule Corp. He feared of Megatron's return. "The time has come." The return of Megatron, begins on the next chapter of Godzilla Galaxy Wars!
