Beast Wars*Over Humans
Episode Two: Dances with Predacons
....................................................................................................................
.................................................................................................................... Yes, part 2 of my really messed up BW fic. I still hope someone reads this and likes it, though. Enjoy and donÕt bite me about grammar or format - I write using PLEANTY of returns and spaces. Its only my computerÕs stupid uploading problem. Well, keep reading my romantic fic of CheetorÕs new girl ** Oh, and it gets a little more sappy at the end even though this is short.
....................................................................................................................
.................................................................................................................... [Cheetor is walking down the halls, newly polished and looking very handsome {if robots can be any more handsome}^_^]
Cheetor[holding flowers]: I hope she likes these.
[He walks up to her chambers, which is already open]
Jenna[singing inside to her CD player]: YouÕve already won me over, in spite of me. And donÕt be alarmed if I fall head over feat. And donÕt be suprised if I love you. . . Cheetor! What are doing?
Cheetor: Hi! What was that?
Jenna: What?
Cheetor: This: [He replays her singing]
Jenna: Oh! That?! I was singing!
Cheetor: It was beautiful. What were you doing with your body?
Jenna: ThatÕs called dancing. Here, IÕll show you how. Oh! You better transform. [He transforms out of beast mode]
Cheetor: Now what?
[She takes his hands and places them around her waist. She puts her arms around his neck]
Cheetor: Are we hugging or dancing.
Jenna: WeÕre dancing, silly. Only you just have sway back and forth. Like this. No! You lead! Guys always lead. Cheetor: What is this for?
Jenna: Oh! You go to dances, and all you do is this, that is, with music. This is slow dancing. Fast dancing you just make it up.
Cheetor: Hey! WouldnÕt it be a nice idea to have our own dance. The Maximal Dance!
Jenna: Maybe. . . [She spys the flowers behind his back] What are those? Cheetor: Oh! I almost forgot! These are for you!
Jenna: Thank you, Cheetor! TheyÕre beautiful! [She kisses his cheek] Are these uh, daylilies?
Cheetor: IÕm not sure. They looked pretty, so I got them for you. I guess you could say they reminded me of you.
[Jenna blushes as she puts them in a vas next to her bed]
Jenna: You know, Cheetor, I havenÕt got myself a good look at a Predacon yet...
[sirens go off]
Cheetor: Well, it wonÕt be long now. Come on.
.................................................................................................................... Cheetor: WhatÕs up, Bigbot?
Optimus: Predacons attacking the base.
[They look to the viewing screen]
Megatron: All we want is the human. Hand it over and weÕll have nothing to fight about.
Cheetor: Yeah right! WeÕll have plenty to fight for. [He stands next to Jenna and puts his hand around her shoulder] DonÕt worry, Jenna. We wonÕt just give you up so easily.
Rattrap: I said it before and I will say it agian; WeÕre all gonna die!
Jenna: Do you have to look on the bright side?
Optimus: Come on! We need to be out there! TheyÕre hitting us pretty hard. [A blast makes the base shake]
Jenna: I forgot! You donÕt have a sheild.
Optimus: No. Firepower is our shield. For now. Come on, weÕll need everyoneÕs help. Jenna, you have to stay inside, though. I donÕt want to risk you getting caught in the line of fire or worse. . . Jenna: ThatÕs fine with me! IÕll stay here and work on a sheild.
Cheetor: I thought you said you wanted to see a Pred?
Jenna: The horror films can wait, flyboy! You need a sheild!
Optimus: Good luck.
Jenna: You too. [She salutes him with two fingers before running to the gate computer]
....................................................................................................................
**Meanwhile, Outside the Base amid the shots and fires**
Megatron: Predacons! Capture the human! Little damage to it as possible! If it dies, youÕll all pay with your sparks!
Inferno: You wanted to see me personally, Magesty?
Megatron: Yes. Take airflight. Get into the base. When youÕre inside. . . [starts whispering commands to him]
....................................................................................................................
**Inside**
Jenna: Ugh! I hate wires! How many can there be? DonÕt these stupid snakes have color codes?
Rinox: Sorry, they donÕt, and there are six hundred, seventy eight of them. Good luck on that sheild. [He runs off to join in the fight]
Jenna: Oh, man! Jenna! Relax! I can do this. . . ....................................................................................................................
**Outside on the Maximal Side**
Rattrap: I sure hope she gets that sheild up.
Optimus: Me, too.
Black Arachnia: Trust me! SheÕll get it up. SheÕs probably almost done by now.
....................................................................................................................
**Back inside**
[JennaÕs in the middle of a disaster. Wires are everywhere and so are sparks and fuses]
Jenna: Okay. All I need is something to keep these two things together and then...[the entire whole thing falls apart, creating burst and small explosions around Jenna] In the words of R. Trap; WeÕre all gonna die!
....................................................................................................................
**Outside**
[Inferno flies skyward above the MaximalÕs sight, coming down silently behind them, able to sneak into the base]
Inferno: Now to see to the human.
....................................................................................................................
Jenna: I got it! Finally! Now all I need is another small source of energy. Oh, uh, um? Oh, crap. . .
Inferno [He pops out and grabbs her]: Gottcha!
Jenna:[screaming] Eew! Get off me! Let go! Cheetor! Help! HELP!
[Cheetor, hearing Jenna]
Cheetor: Jenna![runs towards the base]
Optimus: Cheetor! Wait! [He stands up away from his hiding place to divert the fire away from Cheetor and towards him, giving Cheetor leave to save Jenna]
....................................................................................................................
**Back inside**
Jenna: Get off of me, Creep!
[She tries kicking him, but is unsuccessfull in doing anything but discourage him]
Inferno: Magesty orders me to bring you to him.
Cheetor[running up to them]: Not while IÕm still on-line!
Jenna: Cheetor!
[Cheetor attacks Inferno and hits him into stacislock.
Jenna[turning to the dead-looking machine of Inferno]: You know, there are more civilized ways of asking me out than that! [She turns back to Cheetor and smiles]
Cheetor: What can they say? Megatron doesnÕt get out much.
Jenna: By the look of it, neither does his minions. Oh! Shute! I forgot about the system! Cheetor! Run to my room and get my small CD player.
Cheetor: The one with cheetah spots on it?
Jenna: Yes! Hurry! And get a twisty as well!
....................................................................................................................
**A few moments later**
Cheetor: HereÕs the CD player and the twisty. WhatÕs the twisty for?
Jenna: My hair! I canÕt think without it up and out of my face!
Cheetor: Then whatÕs the CD player for? Listening to while you work?!
Jenna: Power, silly! It should be enough for now. There! ....................................................................................................................
[A visible sheild goes up between the Maximals and the Predacons]
Silverbolt: She did it! She actually did it!
Black Arachnia: Told you so!
Optimus: Come on, letÕs go inside. This battleÕs over.
....................................................................................................................
**On the other side of the river**
Megatron: No. No! NO! How could this happen? Not only do they have the human, but now they have a shield! Waspinator: Wazpinator zinks Megatron iz angry.
[Megatron throws Waspinator into the sheild and flies away]
....................................................................................................................
**Inside**
[The troups come parading into the control deck, all happy and ready to celebrate]
Rinox[looking around]: WhereÕs Jenna?
Jenna: Down here! [They look under the panel and find Jenna laying beside the computer, looking a complete reck. Cheetor is beside her, dabbing her forehead]
Optimus[trying to hide his laugh at her predicament]: Are you. . . okay? Jenna: Yes. Nothing a warm bath canÕt take away. And a nap! Oh my gawd! Do you know how many freakinÕ WIRES there are here?!!
[Everyone starts laughing]
Cheetor[trying to help Jenna up]: Come on! Well, now that youÕve seen a Pred, what do you think?
Jenna: You robots have some really freaky characters on your hands! I mean, the wasp referrs to himself in the third person! And the ant thinks he lives in a real colony! I estimate that they share about two brains between them!
Optimus: ThatÕs the Predacons for you!
[Everyone laughs again]
....................................................................................................................
**On the control Deck**JennaÕs CD player, hooked up to the sheild is playing music constantly**The lights are dim and almost everyone is dancing or talking, having a good time**
[On the dance floor]
Cheetor: May I have this dance? [He bows while transforming out of beast mode]
Jenna: Of coarse! I could never turn down my hero.
Cheetor[blushing*can robots blush?*]: IÕm no hero.
Jenna: YouÕre mine. [They start dancing and Cheetor pulls her closer to him as she says this]
[Silverbolt and Black Arachnia are dancing as well. Optimus and Rinox are talking in a corner and Rattrap is being a sourpuss. Jenna spys Rattrap and motions Cheetor to look]
Cheetor: Oh, donÕt worry. HeÕs always like that.
Jenna: IÕll see about that!
[She walks up to him and crosses her arms]
Jenna: DonÕt you wanna dance?
Rattrap: ArenÕt you dancinÕ with Spots?
Cheetor: Go on, Rattrap. IÕll have plenty of time to dance with her. Rattrap: Oh, alright.
[They start dancing and Rattrap actually starts to look like heÕs having fun*isnÕt that a surprise*]
....................................................................................................................
Rinox[whispering]: I know. IÕm not sure about it either, but theyÕre just friends. And even if there is anything, itÕs just puppy love. TheyÕre just kids, remember.
Optimus: I sense that itÕs more than just puppy love, Rinox. Both of them will be seriously hurt if she stays with us any longer.
Rinox: But look at her! SheÕs even softening up old Rattrap! She makes us feel more like a team. Maybe even more like a family.
Optimus: I have to agree. SheÕs been a blessing. To all of us. ItÕll be sad when she has to leave.
....................................................................................................................
[Cheetor and Jenna are dancing slow again]
Cheetor: Is Earth4 anything like this earth?
Jenna: No. This earth is peaceful and untouched. Earth4 is very populated and very crowded. One big city. I love this Earth. Its so beautiful. IÕd say it was peaceful, but todayÕs events threw that out the window. IÕm glad I came, though.
Cheetor: So am I. LetÕs go outside.
Jenna: Okay. The next songÕs boring anyways.
[They walk outside and lay on the rocks beside each other, gazing at the stars through the sheild]
Cheetor: If you found another way to leave, other than your ship, would you go?
Jenna: I donÕt know. I have nowhere to go. Cheetor[making eye contact with her]: You could come with me, to Cybertron. Jenna: IÕd like that. Hey, look! A shooting star! LetÕs make a wish!
Cheetor: You know what, the last time I saw one, I made a wish on it. Actually it wasnÕt a shooting star. It was you coming down in your ship. I guess wishes do come true.
[Jenna holds CheetorÕs head with her hand and he bends down slowly to kiss her]
Optimus[yelling from inside]: Come inside, you two! ItÕs cold! You want your circuits froze?
Jenna[laughing]: Optimus! Ever heard of privacy?
Cheetor[laughing]: Come on. . .
[She keeps a hold of his hand as they walk back inside]
Jenna: Tonight is perfect.
Cheetor: I agree.
