Transformers: TransWarp
Episode V
"Tactics"
By God Fire Convoy
The room was dark, only the sound of metal scraping against metal was heard as the two opponents shuffled around to their spots. After a moments pause, a surge of energy crackled through the room, flashing like lightning as the two blades of a plasma energy beam saber was ignited, the once dark room now glowing with dancing light. A moment after, another crackling sound echoed throughout the simulator room as another plasma beam was ignited, the room flushing with a mixture between a pure white and a bright green color. Grimus took a step forward, twirling his double bladed staff over his head before resting it in his extended arm in his trademark battle pose.
Magnum Convoy's bright blue optics flashed as bright as the plasma signaling to Grimus that he was ready.
Grimus nodded as he twirled the blades once again, swinging at magnum from his right. Magnum Convoy's battle computer, now engaged, sensed the movement and forced his joints to quickly bring his saber over down from over his shoulder, the blades colliding at an equal force, sparks flying as the plasma collides.
Magnum pulled back his saber before quickly slashing towards grimus' legs from his right, Grimus, suddenly spins around, and meets the blade with one of his own, his head turned towards magnum as his back faced magnum, holding the blade there for a second before swinging around meeting magnums blade again. They collided for but a nanoclick before grimus spun back to face magnum, bringing the far end of his staff in an uppercut fashion. Magnum quickly responded and slashed down at the beam, his optics watching grimus' every move, predicting it as any other good soldier would.
For that moment grimus pushed magnums blade up over his head and did a 90- degree turn, swinging his blade up for magnums head. Magnum, knowing he couldn't block an attack like that, suddenly kneeled down, dodging the blade, sparks showering his massive body.
Magnum quickly stood up as Grimus slashed at him from one side, Magnum quickly stood sideways and brought the beam in front of him, the plasma intermixing for a second before grimus quickly turned and brought the other end of his staff, driving it towards magnum's back. Magnum quickly took a step forward and swung his blade behind him, blocking grimus' well-trained attack. Grimus snarled as he swung around back the direction he came, forcing magnum to once again swing his saber down to block.
Grimus quickly hopped away from magnum, twirling his blades around in the air as he spun to face magnum convoy.
Magnum suddenly leaped towards Grimus, swinging the blade to the right from his left shoulder, grimus' turning his body so he could manage to bring his own blade behind him, crackling like wild beasts, the plasma met, as grimus swung his saber forwards which caused magnum to unexpectedly do the same.
Magnum Convoy quickly recovered as he spun his saber once before slashing at grimus at about chest height, grimus bringing his saber up, not having enough time to block with the blade, had to force a block with the hilt of his staff. Sparks flew as the plasma energy slowly melted away the alloy, Grimus, stepping back before he could cut through.
Magnum chuckled a few times as the fierce duel continued for megacycles before one last move which seized the fight.
Magnum ducked to dodge Grimus' attack, in that moment, Magnum quickly performed a spin kick on the ground, knocking Grimus off balance, sending him crashing to the ground. Magnum quickly stood and spun around to face Grimus as he pointed his blade at Grimus' faceplate.
"The duel is mine, my friend.." Magnum said as he held the beam saber steady to the covert agents face.
"Yeah…" Grimus muttered.
"Just remember, we're tied now." Grimus chuckled as he stood up to his feet and disengaged his own sabers.
Magnum did the same as the lights quickly flickered on, revealing the vast yet dull simulation room.
"It was a good duel. One of our longer ones I might point out as well." Magnum stated as he held his hand out to Grimus.
Grimus took Magnum's hand in his and shook it a few times before responding, "Yeah, it most certainly was. You must've been practicing eh?" he chuckled.
Magnum laughed with him. "I might have a little."
The two of them laughed as they walked out of the simulator and down the hall.
"Thanks for the good time Magnum. We'll have to do it again once I get back from 'Operation: Knightfall."
"It was no problem. Now go rest, you leave in just a few megacycles." Nodded Magnum as they split up in a forked hallway.
Magnum opened the secret compartment on his left waist where he held his beam saber. He slipped it in as the small hatch closed.
Meanwhile, back aboard the battleship 'Prometheus,' a happy crewman contacted Plasmacron.
"M'lord. This is Centro of the transwarp repair team 011. We're glad to report that the Prometheus now has its transwarp engines back online. We're ready to proceed with phase 2 of 'Operation: Overlord." He said cheerfully into the COM link.
Plasmacron's single optic, much like the infamous Soundwave's, gave a flash at the news. "Excellent work. It seems you lucked out, this time." He said as he switched off the COM, turning to NAV control.
"Take us into transwarp. Course: Cybertron…"
"As you wish sir." The obedient crewman responded as we switch scenes back the Decepticon Covert Navy's secret base hidden on the barren planet of Charr, a medium sized, unmarked silver shuttled streaked down from space towards the base.
"This is Grimus to Xero. Requesting permission to land. Authorization code: zero, ten, alpha, beta."
"This is Xero. Authorization code accepted. Welcome to the future Grimus.." the voice over the COM spoke as the two gigantic doors of the base opened for the small shuttle.
The shuttle gracefully glided and docked inside. A moment after the shuttle's sub-light engines cooled, the entry way to the shuttle hissed open as Grimus steadily walked down it greeting a welcoming party.
"Commander Xero has been expecting you Grimus. This way." A small chrome droid waved as he escorted Grimus to the command center where Xero and the other chosen Decepticons awaited him.
"Welcome aboard 'Operation: Knightfall' Grimus." Xero nodded as he showed him to a seat which lie next to him.
"Now…Onto business. You all were called here to begin your mission. The Knightfall is awaiting her crew in our secret hangar bay below the surface. All the controls are extremely simple, even a maintenance droid could operate this powerful ship so you should have no trouble getting her off the ground." Xero paused for a moment as he stood up. "This way, its time you all met Knightfall." Xero's optics flared happily as he led the others through the long, curving halls of the DCN's secret complex. The stopped at a dead end as a pair of giant steel doors slid open, revealing the elevator to the secret hangar bay.
"Only our finest know of this secret hangar. And of course the mechanics." He waved them all in as he got in also. He layed his hand atop a small pad as it quickly scanned his palm and energy signature. The speakers let out a quick 'ting' noise as the doors slid to a close just before the elevator dropped several stories underneath the complex. The elevator whizzes by as we quickly change scenes to show Magnum Convoy standing inside Iacon Harbor, looking over the final phases of the repair sequence on the Axalon- II.
We slowly fade to show the gigantic Tyrannicon ship orbit the lone planet of Cybertron. The ship began to fade in and out of view as the cloaking system was deployed. The moment the ship became visible several small shuttles suddenly spread from the ship like missile fire towards the planets' surface. We enter the bridge of the ship as Plasmacron observed over his viewscreens.
"Excellent. Now those cybertronians will never know what hit them." He chuckled before turning towards Dinox.
"Target Moonbase 1 with our main cannons and fire when ready. Its time to show the council of elders and all the other inhabitants that this is no ordinary war they'll be staging." Plasmacron began to laugh as we quickly zoom to an exterior view of the ship. A high pitch screaming noise filled the emptiness of space as several locations on the Prometheus' hull began to glow an eerie green…
