It was pitch black. No one and nothing can be seen, no sun, no moon. All that can be heard are the echoing and muffled sounds of explosions, gun fire and Cybertronians screaming in pride and pain.
"Hound! Hound!" A muffled Crosshairs screamed and continued to scream the unconscious Autobot Commando's name. Hound's optics would slowly open changing his vision from pitch black and revealing the war going on around him. Explosions going off, the sounds of his comrades dying from gunfire and even saw a few Autobot soldiers fly out of sight from the impact of the explosions. In front of him was Crosshairs attempting to get Hound.
"Hound! Hound, can you hear me?" Crosshairs asked.
"Ugh! Whaa….Cross…..Cro…..Cr….Crosshairs?" Hound said trying to get up and speak.
"Oh thank Primus!" Crosshairs said in relief.
"Now I can transfer to my bossy tone!" Crosshairs said to himself.
"Now…..GET UP YOU BIG DUMB BULKHEAD!" Crosshairs said yelling at Hound's face. Hound starts to slowly get up knocking the mini-gun that was resting on his abdomen off of him. He would get up trying to stand still as he nearly fell back down. What he gazed upon was truly disturbing, an entire battalion of Autobots and Decepticons mercilessly being killed. Optimus, Ratchet and Leadfoot were in front taking out multiple Decepticon soldiers and Heavy Iron Sentries while Sideswipe, Drift and Bumblebee were taking injured bots to cover.
"Well what are you waiting for huh?" Crosshairs asked in confusion as he picked up his Sub-machine guns ready for battle but noticed Hound paralyzed and staring at the battlefield.
"Grab your gun and fire! You're supposed to be in front of everyone else anyway, you're the goddamn muscle!" Crosshairs yelled at Hound. Hound eventually got over the sight of the massacre and grabbed his gun.
"Come and get some Decepticon Punks!" Hound said as he charged off to battle.
"HELL YEAH!" Hound screamed as he fired his mini-gun at the Decepticons mowing them down one by one.
"Oh that's my Lugnut!" Crosshairs said to himself in pride acting as if he was the one who helped Hound regain his sanity.
"Wheeljack! Jolt! Are those weapons of yours ready?" Crosshairs looked behind where Kaon stood and was on the verge of collapsing from the damage it's sustaining. Inside were Wheeljack and Jolt bringing their newly designed weapons to aid the Autobots in their battle against the Decepticons.
"Jolt is bringing them this way!" Wheeljack replied back to Crosshairs as Jolt ran outside with a container full of explosive, rocket launchers, shotguns and other sort of weapons. Some of the Autobot soldiers quickly grabbed them and some were killed before they can even use them or as soon as they grabbed the weapons.
"Wheeljack get out of there the building is collapsing!" Crosshairs yelled at Wheeljack warning him to get out.
"I'm coming!" Wheeljack yelled but soon stopped as he heard the muffled screams of Brains inside the walls of Kaon.
"Help Me!" Brains yelled inside the walls of Kaon.
"Brains?" Wheeljack said hearing the injured mini-con.
"Somebody help me, I'm dying here!" Brains said as he running low on energon.
"Hold on Brains I'm coming!" Wheeljack said as he ran back into the building to get Brains. Wheeljack would proceed to scan each side of the wall for energon signs and eventually finds Brains who is still missing his leg and was on the verge of dying. Wheeljack punches a whole through the wall and grabs Brains.
"Wheeljack! Thank Primus you are still inside!" Brains said as he was happy to see someone rescue him.
"No Problem, oh and speaking off which the building about to collapse!" Wheeljack said to Brains.
"Well then let's get out of here!" Brains yelled as Wheeljack ran off the join the battle with Brains still in his hand.
"Wait what off the Space Bridge?" Wheeljack asked as he stopped in his tracks and looked back inside at the fully activated space bridge.
"It will be fine it's indestructible but we aren't!" Brains said to Wheeljack as they went outside. Wheeljack would place Brains to rest in a safe area while Wheeljack grabbed his weapon and fired at the Decepticons.
"Annihilate the Autobots! LET NOTHING STAND IN YOUR WAY!" Starscream said ordering the Decepticons to attack. The Seekers along with Nitro and Mindwipe would proceed to transform into their Interstellar Jet Forms and fly close to the Autobots dropping bombs on them taking them out one by one.
"Wheeljack look out!" Dino yelled as The Seekers were air-bombing the Autobots. Dino would proceed to run straight to Wheeljack and push him aside.
"Are you alright?" Dino asked as he and Wheeljack got up after the impact.
"I'm fine!" Wheeljack said as he placed his hand on Dino's soldier as a sign of gratitude.
"Get Back!" Wheeljack yelled as he pushed Dino away and fired at Nitro. Nitro would transform out of his jet form and pounce on Wheeljack.
"Hello Wheeljack!" Nitro said as he walked with Wheeljack in a circle making eye contact and aiming his weapons at him.
"Well if it isn't Nitro! Shockwave's little lab rat!" Wheeljack said insulting Nitro.
"Shockwave has a magnificent mind compared to you Autobot! I'm proud to work alongside him!" Nitro said explaining how much he respects the one-eyed mad scientist.
"Too bad he treats you like shit!" Wheeljack said.
"Take that back Autobot Scum!" Nitro said as he ran straight into Wheeljack and attacked him with his mounted axe. Wheeljack would deflect it using his energon spear.
Mindwipe would fly searching for an Autobot close by and spots Sideswipe killing a few Decepticon soldiers. The greedy Decepticon would take advantage of this and pounces on Sideswipe.
"You will obey my every command!" Mindwipe said as he began hypnotizing Sideswipe.
"SIDESWIPE!" Optimus yelled as he noticed Sideswipe being hypnotized by Mindwipe.
"Go kill Starscream! Have your Revenge!" Mindwipe said as he gave the hypnotized Sideswipe a task to complete. Optimus would run after Mindwipe scaring him off and yells at Sideswipe trying to make him snap out of Mindwipe's control.
"Sideswipe! Stop! No!" Optimus yelled at the Hypnotized Sideswipe.
"Yes! Kill Megatron's second in command! It will benefit both of us!" Mindwipe said as he watched Sideswipe run after Starscream who was firing at the Autobot soldiers. Starscream would notice this and order the Enforcers to stop Sideswipe.
"Enforcers! Stop Him!" Starscream ordered the Stockade, Barricade and Berserker to stop Sideswipe from getting near Starscream.
"Bumblebee! Help Sideswipe!" Optimus ordered Bumblebee who transformed and drove after Sideswipe. Sideswipe would proceed to fire at Barricade and Berserker knocking them out and only Stockade is able to dodge his bullets and pounces on Sideswipe and plans on executing him.
"Say hello to your brother for me!" Stockade said as he aimed his gun and Sideswipe was motionless unable to do anything else while still hypnotized. As Stockade prepares to finish him off, his head is blown off by Bumblebee who in doing so avenges Cliffjumper and himself. Bumblebee would come near Sideswipe and snap his fingers trying to make his former teacher snap out of it.
"Huh What? Thanks Bumblebee!" Sideswipe said as he thanked Bumblebee for snapping him out of his mind control.
"SLAG IT!" Mindwipe said to himself in anger and disappointment. Sideswipe and Bumblebee would proceed to get back to the Autobot side of the battlefield and as they retreat back. Hound notices that a few Decepticon soldiers managed to make it into the space bridge.
"Boss!" Hound yelled trying to Optimus Prime's attention.
"The Decepticons are getting inside the Space Bridge!" Hound said to Optimus who immediately turned around and in shock saw them entering it.
"Hound get Crosshairs and Drift and fight off the Decepticons! Make sure no more will enter!" Optimus gave Hound orders to keep the Decepticons away from the space bridge.
"You got it Boss! Let's Go!" Hound said as he along with Crosshairs and Drift ran straight to the Space Bridge to defend it.
"Commander Starscream! A few Decepticon soldiers successfully made into the Space bridge!" Thrust informed Starscream of the soldiers that made it in.
"Excellent!" Starscream said.
"Contact Onslaught, Mohawk, Barricade, Berserker, Brawl, Blackout, Bonecrusher, Nitro and Mindwipe! Tell them that they must enter the Space Bridge immediately and I will join them as soon as possible!" Starscream said ordering Thrust to contact the mentioned Decepticons.
"Yes Commander!" Thrust said and as he is about to contact them, he is shot and killed by Autobot gunfire.
"Dammit! I guess I have to do it myself!" Starscream said to himself in annoyance.
"Starscream to Onslaught, Mohawk, Barricade, Berserker, Brawl, Blackout, Bonecrusher, Nitro and Mindwipe head to the Space Bridge immediately! I repeat head to the Space Bridge immediately!" Starscream contacted the mentioned Decepticon officers. Mindwipe, Blackout, Brawl, Onslaught, Moahwk and Bonecrusher immediately began heading straight for the Space Bridge while Barricade and Berserker went later and as of right now were mourning the loss of their fallen comrade Stockade.
"Well Wheeljack! I'm saddened to say that we will have to finish this some other day!" Nitro said in disappointed as he flew away leaving Wheeljack on the ground.
"Soundwave! Come with me to the Space Bridge and order your Mini-cons to set up explosives on the Command center before we enter!" Starscream ordered Soundwave.
"Affirmative!" Soundwave said as he downloaded the new mission objective to his mini-cons who immediately began setting off explosives on the command center.
"Have they done their job?" Starscream asked.
"Affirmative!" Soundwave replied.
"Well then let's head to Earth!" Starscream said as he flew straight for the Space Bridge with Soundwave following him.
"Optimus!" Ratchet yelled as he pointed at Starscream and Soundwave.
"NO!" Optimus said in shock.
"Hound get out of there! Starscream is on his way!" Optimus contacted Hound, Crosshairs and Drift informing them that Starscream is headed to their location.
"Thanks for the warning Boss! I'll slit his throat for you!" Hound replied back.
"No Hound don't! Starscream is too powerful!" Optimus yelled back to Hound but the Autobot commando ignored him.
"Alright Starscream! It's just you and me!" Hound said as he pulled out his knife and got into a striking position.
"Um Hound!" Crosshairs said pointing at the other Decepticons coming their way.
"Oh Scrap!" Hound said as he along with Drift and Crosshairs are pushed away by Brawl who is the first to enter.
"NO! Autobots head to the Space Bridge!" Optimus said ordering his Autobots to attack Starscream.
Starscream is the last Decepticon to enter the Space Bridge and as he starts to enter the Space Bridge he triggers the explosives.
"Goodbye…..Autobots!" Starscream said as he set off the explosives and entered the Space Bridge. Optimus would look up at the top of the command center as explosions go off and the building starts to tear apart and collapse crushing the Autobots and Optimus.
