1 Transformers: TransWarp

Season 2

Episode III

"Hungry Nights"



A small area of Cybertropolis lit up as blaster fire exploded from the escaping Autobots weapons.

"Don't let up, we have to get these guys to a CR chamber!" Blitz said as she aimed her blaster at one of the Tyrannicon drones heads, she grinned as she pulled the trigger, a beam of light slitting its head right off its servos.

"Come on!"

Chaox, the flatbed responsible for transporting the two injured, put things into high gear as he drove straight on through a wall of battle drones, their fire scorching his midnight blue armor as he knocked them over like pins in a bowling alley.

"The path is clear, let's roll!" Shouted Blitz as she let off a few more shots.

The others let one last round of firepower shower upon the drones as they ran off after Chaox.



"M...My future?" Questioned Magnum as he gathered the rest of his strength, pushing the Tyrannicon backwards giving him enough time to gain some distance between them.

"What are you talking about?"

The two Tyrannicons laughed lowly.

"We are your future because we are you. Over a billion stellar cycles in the future, we are the force to be reckoned with, reckoned with…"

"You guys are from the future??"

"Exactly, exactly…"

"Then why come and exterminate Cybertron and its inhabitants if you are our descendants?"

"The point is, we are not your descendants, descendants…"

Hidrax began to be angered by this meaningless conversation between the Autobot and his brother, he raised his arm and two jet-black missiles revealed themselves from within a hatch…

"I tire of these games Autobot. DIE!"

The missiles shot off out of their holsters as they collided with Magnum's body.



"What in Primus name is that?!?" Shouted Chaox as he came to a screeching stop, a gigantic fireball exploding into the air along with countless debris reflected off his dark windshield as Blitz and the others looked up and watched their peoples homes shatter under the force of an unknown enemy.

"These scrap-piles have gone far enough…"

A moment later, a rather large white piece of debris crashed in front of them. Wrenched, dented, and smoked, they found the Autobot symbol and the seal of the CNF scraped across its surface…

Blitz kneeled down and touched the steaming piece of debris. At first she thought it belonged to home, but after she ran across the CNF seal she knew where it had came from…

She picked it up and looked at it, sparking wires dangling underneath as she dropped it on the ground. She screamed, eternally frightened after she noticed the initials etched into the armor. Her hand slipped up over her mouth as she took a few steps backwards, stumbling over another piece; part of an arm.

Everyone was silent. Blitz turned around and ran off, the others just watched her leave feeling it was best for her to be alone…



The two Tyrannicon brothers laughed as they observed the scrap pile in front of them; they had eliminated the Admiral.

"I was beginning to tire of his 'goody goody' speeches already, already. Let us find more prey, more prey."

The two Tyrannicons transformed into two hideous insect-like forms.

"And now… We feast…"

The two wry, razor pointed forms jumped atop what was left of the Autobot. They lifted their heads, their 'mouths' opening two show two very long and narrow points.

They dove into their meal.



Balance boosters fired from the front of the silver shuttle as Double Agent Grimus tried to at least make this landing one capable of causing minimal damage to his surroundings and himself.

"Come on you Decepticon piece of junk!" He growled angrily as he worked the controls as best as he could.

The metal planet suddenly rushed up like a tidal wave to greet the shuttle as it bounced along the surface, pieces flying off like they were only held on with glue, stripping the shuttle until the inner frame of the cockpit remained.



That…That couldn't have been him…

Numerous thoughts much like that one raced through her mind as she lie there on the floor, her head buried deep in her arms.

But…That was his seal…

She turned around and picked up a piece of metal, throwing it against the wall to see it shatter.

It couldn't have been him!

Magnum…it couldn't have been you…

Her optics closed as she threw herself to the ground again, letting her tears run free from her…



"You…you guys really think that was Magnum?" Chaox asked lowly…

"Apparently she did. I don't see what the big fuss is, everybody dies. I guess it was just 'Maggys' turn to be pushin' up daisies."

Cliffjumper turned around and grabbed Xeratran by the neck.

"I've had just about all I can take from you. Magnum was a dear friend of hers and mine. Show some respect you lowlife."

Cliffjumper huffed as he threw him to the ground, unholstering his blaster to point it at Xeratran's forehead.

"Do you want to be next?"

"Guys, knock it off. Just let it go. I'm sure it was just a shard of armor or something, he probably escaped the blast, you know how much of a big hero Magnum's gotta be right"

Cliffjumper slowly eased back.

"That still doesn't change how I feel for this jerk. Come on, lets find Blitz and get out of here, maybe we can find some more info on Magnum. Why don't you go talk to her Cyclone? She seems to like you best out of the group."

Cyclone looked over at Cliffjumper with a questioned look.

"Me?"

"Yeah. Go talk to her, try to convince her that everything's ok. You know, all that kind of stuff."

"Oh. Alright then, I guess."

Cyclone shrugged and began to walk off to where she was. A few minutes later he was pushing aside some scrap that just so happened to lock her in an abandoned hangar.

"Blitz?" He cried out to her, hoping he'd get some kind of an answer.

All he heard was silence in the hangar, but he knew she had to be in here, he could sense it.

"Blitz, I know you're broken by finding part of Magnum at your feet…" It was just as hard for him to choke out the words as for her to feel the pain that wrenched her spark.

"Ya know, the guys think that maybe Magnum made it out ok. I mean, he IS the Admiral of the CNF. If anyone could've made out of a blast like that its Magnum. That's why I think we should keep going. I mean, you don't want to let those two guys out there die do you? And if we get them somewhere they can be fixed and hopefully you could see Magnum again."

He continued to talk along the similar modes of dialogue as he searched the hangar.

A moment later a few shards of junk fell off of a small mound as he found her sitting in a corner crying with her knees folded up against her chest.

"Blitz.."

Cyclone held out a hand towards her, praying that she'd at least take it.

Blitz lifted her head and looked over at his extended hand.

"You're right Cyclone. We've got to get those guys somewhere."

She sniffed as she wiped away a few tears from her optics, taking his hand.

Cyclone gave a slight smile of relief as he pulled her up to stand.

"Come on Blitz."

Blitz looked over and gave a smile before leaning in and placing an unsuspecting kiss on his cheek.

"You're a real friend Cyclone. Thanks."



Internal fluids dripped off of Hidrax's 'mouth' as the two of them stood over the now decomposed Magnum Prime. A moment later, as quick as a flash of light, the Tyrannicons were atop the highest nearby building, their red insect eyes glowing furiously.

"Tonight, we have not only one but two feasts, two feasts… Let the hunt begin, begin…"

The two said in unison as they stared down at Blitz and Cyclone with hungry eyes.
