Author's Note: The Transformers are owned by Hasbro and Takara. I am just borrowing them for a while. Rev is my own original creation. If you want to use him email me at rlp85@msn.com for permission to use him. I'll probably let you. I just want to be notified so I can read a fic you put him in.
================================================================
On Earth, Rev and the Dinobots were really bored. There had been no sign of Decepticon activity since Optimus and the others went to Cybertron.
"Me Grimlock bored."
"Me Swoop bored too."
"I know. I am too." said Rev. "But Prime told us to stay here and guard the Space Bridge."
"Why can't Dinobots bash Decepticons?" asked Grimlock.
"I wish we could have gone too, but Prime said no." said Rev.
All of a sudden out of nowhere, a lot of jet drones attacked.
"We're severely outnumbered." said Rev. "Transform and get out of here."
"Dinobots no run away. Dinobots bash brains." said Grimlock. "Dinobots, transform." The Dinobots then transformed and attacked the jet drones.
"I'm gonna regret this." said Rev as he pulled out his blaster and joined the fight.
The fight was long and tiring. The Dinobots were dominant for a while, but eventually the numbers game caught up with them. Rev and the Dinobots were captured and taken to Cybertron over the Space Bridge.
On Cybertron, Wheeljack had been brought from the Decepticon base and was put in the same cell as Inferno, Seaspray, Huffer, and Tracks.
"I'm glad to see you guys are alright." said Wheeljack.
"We're really banged up though." said Huffer. "Can you help us?"
"I'll see what I can do."
After several hours Wheeljack was able to make minimal repairs to his friends with what few scraps were available.
"Thanks Wheeljack." said Tracks.
"It was no problem at all. Actually, it was because I didn't have that much to work with."
"We're a lot better than we were before you got here." said Inferno.
In the Decepticon Headquarters, Megatron was delighted with what he saw.
"Excellent. My drones have worn down the Autobots so much that they are almost out of energy. We are very close to achieving victory. Can you feel it Soundwave?"
"Yes, Megatron."
"I say we destroy them now while we have the chance." said Starscream.
"Patience Starscream." said Megatron. "The Autobots will be out of energy very soon. And when they are, we will strike and conquer Cybertron."
Optimus and his troops were sitting outside the Decepticon base. They had decided it was time to strike.
"What's the plan?" asked Ironhide.
"There is only one thing we can do." said Optimus. "We have to attack the Decepticons head on. We are dangerously low on energy and if we don't win this one, we will lose Cybertron."
"We also have to worry about the drones." said Jazz. "It's worrying me that we haven't seen them at all."
"I agree." said Optimus. "I believe the only function for them was to drain our energy. Now that they have done that, Megatron has probably destroyed them to make weapons for his soldiers. But for now, we must fight for Cybertron. Autobots, attack."
The Autobots bashed down the door and began the offense. They were in for a surprise though. Tank drones were waiting for them. The drones began to shoot at the Autobots.
In Megatron's command center they could hear the fight.
"What is going on, Shockwave?" asked Megatron.
"We are under attack."
"From whom?"
"Autobots."
"Excellent. We no longer have to find the Autobots to eliminate them. They have come to us looking for death. Decepticons, get ready to attack. We shall finish them off when they have been weakened more than they currently are."
"Megatron." said Soundwave.
"Yes, Soundwave."
"Scanners show there are still Autobots at the Space Bridge. What course of action shall we take?"
"Constructicons, go through the Space Bridge and attack the Autobots who stayed behind."
"Yes, Megatron." said Scrapper. "Constructicons, transform."
The six robots changed into their construction equipment modes and entered the Space Bridge and were transported to Earth.
On earth, Rev saw the Space Bridge open.
"Hey, Dinobots, they're back."
"Really?" asked Grimlock. "Why so soon?"
"Good question?" Rev then got his answer. In front of him were the Constructicons.
"Dinobots, we got Decepticons. Get ready for battle."
"Constructicons, unite." said Scrapper. The Constructicons began the transformation to become Devastator. Scrapper and Mixmaster became the legs. Long Haul became the lower torso. Hook became the upper torso. Bonecrusher and Scavenger transformed into the legs. The head appeared and Devastator was alive.
"Dinobots, transform." said Grimlock. The Dinobots transformed into their dinosaur forms and began to defend against Devastator.
Slag and Sludge tackled Devastator down to the ground. Swoop fired his missiles, landing a direct hit. When the smoke cleared from the blast, Devastator was standing up undamaged.
"That should have worked." said Rev. "We must be low on energy. I suggest we retreat."
"Dinobots no retreat." said Grimlock.
"Then what do we do?"
"We fight Decepticons."
"I don't have a better idea. So I guess all we can do is stand our ground." Rev transformed to become an SUV and drove for Devastator. Rev launched himself off some rocks acting as a ramp and hit Devastator right in the head causing the combiner to fall. Devastator merely got up and lifted Rev into the air and threw him into the side of a cliff.
"Prepare for extermination." said Devastator as he grabbed Snarl and threw him into the Space Bridge. Snarl was then sent to Cybertron.
Grimlock and Sludge used their fire breath on Devastator, but after a few seconds the fire turned into smoke.
Devastator bashed their heads together and threw them into the Space Bridge. Sludge and Grimlock were headed for Cybertron.
Slag tried to body slam Devastator and Swoop tried to dive-bomb him. Devastator dodged them, causing the two Dinobots to crash into the Space Bridge. They were then transported to Cybertron.
Devastator then disassembled himself into the individual Constructicons.
"Scrapper to Megatron."
"Report, Scrapper."
"We have taken care of the Dinobots. We are ready to return to Cybertron."
"Very good." In the background, Scrapper could hear Shockwave.
"Megatron, that only accounts for five of the Autobots. Scanners showed six Autobots."
"Scrapper, where is the other Autobot?"
"We'll find him."
"Do not return to Cybertron until you do or there will consequences."
"We found him." said Hook. "He's in the side of the mountain. He is not functioning."
"Very well. Constructicons, return to Cybertron." said Megatron. The Constructicons then entered the Space Bridge and were transported to Cybertron.
As soon as the Constructicons disappeared, Rev brought his circuits back on line and transformed.
"I have to warn Optimus." he said. He then transformed and sped off toward the base.
On Cybertron, Megatron was watching his drones wear out the Autobots.
"Just a few more minutes. The Autobots still have energy in their weapons."
"I am tired of waiting, Megatron." said Starscream.
"Very well, Starscream. I grow tired of watching the drones. I need more excitement. Seekers, attack the Autobots." Starscream, Skywarp, Thundercracker, Dirge, Ramjet, and Thrust transformed and flew off to intercept the Autobots.
At the battle scene, the Autobots were not doing very well.
"Optimus, my blaster's out of power." said Ironhide.
"So is mine." said Kup.
Several other Autobots had the same problem: Jazz, Cliffjumper, Sideswipe, Hot Rod, Blurr, and Brawn.
"What are we going to do now?" asked Ultra Magnus.
"We need to retreat and find our missing friends. Autobots, transform and roll out."
"Not so fast, Prime." said Starscream. "Decepticons, attack."
The Seekers transformed and began their attack. The Autobots transformed and began to drive away. They made their way to Iacon where they ran into the Dinobots.
"Grimlock, why are you and the other Dinobots here on Cybertron?" asked Optimus.
"Dinobots get attacked by Devastator." said Grimlock.
"Where's Rev?"
"Me Grimlock not know."
"Die, Autobots!" said Starscream as he began to fire on the Autobots. The Autobots made their way inside the building and were able to avoid the Decepticon jets.
Many of the Autobots started to transform to their robot modes but were unable to because of their lack of energy. Blaster tried to cheer himself up with some music but ended up pleasing everyone else when he could not play.
"We're too low on energy to continue fighting." said Ultra Magnus.
"I know, old friend," said Optimus, "but we have to continue to fight for our home. We can not allow the Decepticons to win."
"What if we run out of energy during the battle?"
"We will face that path when we run into it."
Just then, a small repair corridor door open. The Autobots trained their weapons to the door only to find Wheeljack, Inferno, Seaspray, Huffer, and Tracks. The Autobots quickly put away their weapons.
"How did you guys escape from the Decepticons?" asked Jazz.
"We ambushed the guard and grabbed his keycard." said Wheeljack. "Is everyone here?"
"All of us except for Rev." said Hound. "He's still on Earth."
"Rev to Optimus Prime. Do you read me?"
"Yes, I hear you, Rev. Where are you?"
"I'm at the base. What's going on?"
"We are dangerously low on energy. We are about to take a stand against the Decepticons."
"What do you want me to do?"
"Stay put. If we do not make it back you will have to think of a way to defend the Earth against the Decepticons."
"I understand, Prime." With that, Rev ended the communication and the Autobots were left to defend Cybertron.
Outside, Starscream and the Seekers were pounding the walls of Iacon.
"Come out and fight us." said Starscream as he launched another round of missiles at the Autobot's command center.
"Autobots, there is only one thing we can do now. Transform and roll out." said Prime. The Autobots drove out to face the Seekers.
When the Autobots opened the doors, they were greeted by a barrage of missiles.
Jazz started to blast out some music, causing Starscream to lose control and hit a wall.
"Looks like ol' Screamer got lost in the beat of those funky sounds." said Jazz.
"Kup, let's give them a demolition derby." said Hot Rod.
"You lead, they fall." Hot Rod and Kup drove into an access pit while Dirge and Ramjet followed them. Hot Rod and Kup drove circles around the jets. They then jumped of the pits and the jets followed. The jets had become so dizzy they crashed into each other.
Shots from Ironhide, Springer, and Sideswipe brought down Skywarp, Thundercracker, and Thrust.
"Very impressive. Prime." said a voice that came from nowhere. "I hope you can take on more than six jets." It was Megatron. "Decepticons, attack." Megatron transformed into his gun mode and was caught by Soundwave.
The Decepticons began the assault. The attack was fast and hard. Within a few minutes, the Autobots began to lose power in their weapons.
"What are we going to do now, Prime?" asked Brawn.
"Autobots, stand your ground."
The Autobot combiner teams tried to combine, but they were too low on power. The Decepticon combiners transformed and attacked the Autobots. The Dinobots tried to stop Menasor, but were quickly beat down.
The other Decepticons quickly gained the upper hand over the Autobots. The Autobots quickly became overpowered and overwhelmed. They had been backed into an area where a good number of shuttles were held.
Devastator grabbed Blurr and Sunstreaker and threw them against a shuttle.
"Face it, Prime. You Autobots are too weak to continue this fight. Surrender and I may consider sparing you from meeting eternity for a while." said Megatron.
"Stick your promises up your exhaust pipe, Megatron. We're not finished yet."
"So be it." Megatron began to fire at Prime. He landed several good shots. All of the Decepticons were firing at the Autobots. Eventually, Optimus had to make a call.
"Autobots, board the shuttle."
"What?" asked Jazz. "Why?"
"We must do it. We must live to fight another day."
"We were waiting for you to say retreat."
"Let's get out of here." said Ironhide. The Autobots baorded the shuttle and took their positions.
"Prowl, Jazz, get us out of here." said Prime.
"Where to?" asked Prowl.
"To Earth."
Prowl entered the coordinates for Earth, then he and Jazz fired the engines and took off for earth.
In space, the Autobots were devastated.
"We've lost." said Huffer.
"What are we going to do now?" asked Gears.
"For the moment, we can not do anything." said Prime. "We must head for Earth and try to gather more energy. The Decepticons know we are weak at the moment. We must hurry and replenish ourselves because the Decepticons may try to take over Earth at any time. We can not allow that to happen."
