Oh man, I have been wanting to write a story crossing Transformers with RWBY for a long time now and I've finally done it. I hope everyone likes the story, cause I sure as heck am having fun writing it. I do just want to say that I decided to go for the Autobots from the War for Cybetron videogames by Full Moon studio, felt like it was a good starting off point and I just love the designs.
Now enjoy and please leave a review if you can.
Chapter 1: Crash landing
-Outer space-
A charred planet, peppered with craters from the fallen debris of its moon floating above. Fragments from the cratered section float nearby, still within the moon's gravitational pull as a portal opens up in the void, followed by a concussive boom. A large orange ship with red emblems on the hull that look like a robotic face floats in space as the portal closes. Parts of it sparking with damage, smoke coming from holes in the hull and scars of a great battle cover the ship. The crew inside the bridge move groggily.
"Ahh my circuits..won't stop shaking" says Ironhide as he slowly stands holding his head in his hands. "Damn Cons"
"Easy Ironhide" says Ratchet as the medic helps him up. "And follow the light with your optics". He shines a light in Ironhide's eyes before having his hand pushed away by the Autobot's second in command.
"I'm fine Ratchet, nothing a bit of energon can't fix"
"Can't be to careful Ironhide, we did do a rushed jump through the space bridge after all"
"That's the understatement of the cycle. But where on Cybertron did we end up?"
"I'm not entirely sure" says Wheeljack as he types away at the console bringing up space charts. "Telatran one?"
The ship's computer whirrs into life.
"SECTOR OF SPACE IS UNKNOWN, I AM DETECTING NUMEROUS BREACHES IN THE ARKS HULL AND DAMAGE IN OTHER SECTORS. ITS EXCEEDS 50% AND WE'RE LOW ON ENERGON"
"Scrap, the Cons really did a number on the Ark. I'm surprised it's not more"
A tall Autobot stands up in front of them, with a red upper body and blue low half. "Let us be thankful for small miracles Wheeljack. But time is of the essence. Ratchet tend to any wounded in the medbay"
Ratchet salutes "On it Optimus" He runs out of the bridge.
"Ironhide lead the repairs see if you can patch up the hull as best as you can"
"Roger that Optimus!" He follows Ratchet.
"May Primus protect you old friend. Wheeljack, do we have enough energon to land on the planet?" Optimus asks the engineer.
"Looks like it Optimus" he checks the energon levels "But I can't guarantee a soft landing, although we will try"
"It's better then nothing Wheeljack" says a red Autobot with a scope on his left shoulder "But I must say the planet looks stunning. What could have caused it's moon to fracture like it has? And what is that large blue surface covering most it?" He strokes his chin
"Let's just hope we never find out Perceptor" says Bumblebee in his chair nearby "I'm detecting life forms down on the planet's surface Optimus, but not much"
Optimus folds his arms and ponders.
"As soon as the repairs are made. Wheeljack, Perceptor take us in and do what you can"
Both Autobots salute and focus on their consoles as Bumblebee turns to their leader. "Think the Decepticons will find us, Optimus?"
"I cannot say Bumblebee, for now let's focus on repairing the Ark. Turn off all non critical systems to conserve what energon we have"
Bumblebee nods and gets to work.
-On Remnant-
A woman with pale skin and a blue dress watches the night sky, with a cup of tea in hand. Standing on her porch.
"What a beautiful night...if only you were here to watch it with me Ozma" she sighs and sips her tea.
Shooting stars fill the sky as she watches, but one is bigger than the rest as it flies through the atmosphere. Leaving a red trail behind it.
"Oh? Must be another piece of the moon. Even after 200 hundred years, pieces still fall to the surface. I will admit this one is much bigger than some that have fallen"
The woman watches closely then heads back into her simple home.
-The Ark-
Wheeljack and Perceptor grip their control pieces tightly as the whole ship vibrates from the atmospheric entry. Then it stops, but the ship still hurtles towards the surface as snow and wind hits the bridge.
"All hands brace for impact! It's going to be a rough landing!" says Wheeljack
"You can say that again Wheeljack! I thought you said you could land this ship!" shouts Ironhide.
"I said we would try Ironhide! Let's see you give it a go!"
A mountain comes into view in front of the Ark, getting closer with every second as Perceptor turns to Bumblebee and Prowl.
"Put whatever is left in the shields, Autobots! Maybe it can soften the landing!"
They both start typing away quickly as the Ark's shields come to life, forming around the ship as it crashes into the mountain with a thunderous boom. Carving through its face like a knife as rocks, dust and snow go flying from the impact. The entire ship pierces the rock face, the shields still holding as the momentum from the fall keeps The Ark going till it ends up in a caven large enough to house it and finally grinds to a halt as the shields fall.
Inside, Autobots lay everywhere, against walls, consoles, and the floor. Wherever they were during the crash, all of them locked into stasis from the impact. Except for Optimus who sits in his chair on the bridge.
"Telatran oneā¦..status?"
"ARK HAS SUFFERED MINIMAL DAMAGE OPTIMUS. ALL OF THE CREW HAVE GONE INTO STATIS FROM THE IMPACT"
"I see...I can feel it...happening to me too" He tries to move but can't as his vision becomes darker.
"I CAN DELIVER AN ENERGON SHOCK THAT WILL WAKE THE AUTOBOTS, OPTIMUS BUT IT WILL TAKE TIME TO SAVE UP ENOUGH POWER. DELIVERY DATE IS UNKNOWN, I WILL CONSERVE EMERGON TILL SUFFICIENT LEVELS ARE REACHED"
"Thank you...till all...are one"
Optimus' vision goes dark as he enters stasis mode and the ship becomes darker, each section shutting down to conserve power until just Telatran one is operating.
"TILL ALL ARE ONE".
