Chapter eight
"What?!" Shouted Ginrai "you want me to join you? Did you leave your CPU in the waste disposal unit? I'll never join the decepticons!"
"Why?" said scourge "because I don't fit with the autobot philosophy on how things should be?"
"You don't respect the sanctity of life!"
"Because I will crush one of primes humans without a second thought? Don't give me that crap! Do humans treat their lower life forms any better than I do? They step on bugs they hunt wild animals for sport! They even go as far as drowning unwanted baby kittens!" snapped Scourge
"What's a kitten?" said Ginrai.
Scourge looked at Ginrai and pulled out a holo-cube. "Here take a look at those little creatures"
Ginrai gasped, "they're, they're so cute! And humans drown them?"
"Yes." said scourge "but we're straying here Ginrai" scourge grabbed Ginrai suddenly
"This is what I saw when I scanned every human airwave for 5 minutes it was a totally random scan," said scourge "don't resist Ginrai your going to see it anyway"
Ginrai screamed in pain as images filtered into his mind.
Koji sat at home reading his magazine when he saw his communicator, the one given to him by optimus prime was on. He flipped it up and gasped as he saw scourge holding an autobot by the head and the autobot screaming the autobot looked a lot like optimus prime.
Koji grabbed the communicator "whatever scourge's doing fight it!"
"But the horror!" gasped Ginrai "The murders the wars the beatings! How can humans be so cruel to one another!"
"It happens human beings can be destructive," replied Koji "but try to find the positive things humans do! Isn't worth wading through all that crap?"
Ginrai screamed once more and fell to the ground on his knees scourge knelt forward. "Do you see Ginrai? Do you see what prime couldn't see?"
The starglider
Jazz was talking to crosshairs, siren, and sureshot. "We need that defence grid up guys! Just because Ginrai isn't here doesn't mean we slack off!"
"Hey man it means exactly that, we don't have to do squat!" said sureshot "and what are you going to do go running to mommy highbrow?"
"Besides what's going to happen?" Said siren "the decepticons come knocking on our door?"
"Trust me that a'nt gonna happen" said Crosshairs in is characteristic laid back drawl
"Look guys it---" began jazz "what is it getaway?"
"The decepticons are on their way here!"
Jazz, sureshot and siren looked at crosshairs
"Well I have been wrong on one or two occasions." said crosshairs as he jumped into action
"Oh now you guys start working on the shield!" snapped jazz cursing as he rushed to help them
Tokyo
Ginrai stood slowly
"Your good scourge." began Ginrai "you use truth to get your points across. For the only way to get to me is through the truth. You showed me this world and all its ugliness and laid me low but then a child called out to me, he told me to look beyond the horror and find the beauty and I did. I heard the first cry of a human child. I heard the laughter of children playing. I saw a man who had lost a limb rescuing a child. They are reasons not to destroy humanity!"
"One child's cry stops you from seeing my point of view? How very.. Prime -like" sighed scourge
"Yes like I said if it wasn't for Koji."
"Did you say Koji?" Said scourge tensing
"Yes it was Koji who pushed me to look further," replied Ginrai
"Outdone. by that brat.. Argh!" Roared scourge. "It should have been so easy! you weren't corrupted by human society like prime was and if you could have been made to see things from my point of view, even if you didn't join the cons, I would have had the moral victory. Oh well ill have to settle for the physical victory the destruction of the starglider base, your crew, and the head of optimus primes brother on a platter."
The starglider
Jazz turned to Artfire "get the signal out we need to get Ginrai back here!" Artfire nodded and rushed off, Jazz turned and looked at the shield it wouldn't last for much longer.
Highbrow rushed forward "I've laid down a mine field out there it will slow down any ground based con, and brainstorm put up some remote aerial gun drones how you handling the other defences?"
"The field wont hold for much longer," said jazz "but the main cannons are positioned and ready" Highbrow nodded and cocked his gun "well boys it looks like we're going to experience a real war see you at the finish?"
Tokyo
"What do you mean scourge?" said Ginrai
"Oh, while you're here my decepticons are descending on your base en-mass they're going to crush your crew like human fly's "
"No!" Said Ginrai turning away only to come face to face with a familiar face he went flying as the new arrival punched him in the face
"Hi little Ginrai remember me?"
"How can I forget you motormaster you and your brothers were prime's biggest rival back in the day I should have known you would have fallen in with this scum after you incarceration" replied Ginrai rubbing his jaw
"Ah yes." said motormaster "prison was enlightening but lets talk about the present and what im going to do to you."
Cybertron
A predacon walked down a hall. He entered a large room and steered up at the three warriors looking at him
"What is it Tripidactus?" said the predacon
"You are no doubt aware of the autobots recent troubles with the decepticon known as scourge are you not?"
"Yes I know of the trouble that Megatron's only decent creations have caused," replied the predacon
"Good we want you to take a force and go to earth." Said the three warriors in unison
"Why?" replied the predacon
"The autobots are too busy and wont know what we're up to if you can forge a tentative alliance with these decepticons we can fortify a launch pad to stage our conquest of cybertron from"
"So join scourge on earth? I have the feeling he won't like partners."
"No just form an alliance that way he won't interfere with your mission in fact he may aid you." said the three warriors known as Tripidactus
"As you command Tripidactus," replied the predacon
"Good." Said Tripidactus "and Cryotek?"
"Yes Tripidactus?"
"Don't fail us or you'll join Galvatron decorating our chamber." Cryotek looked at the body of Galvatron hanging from the ceiling
"I won't fail," said Cryotek
As he left the room he didn't see a small robotic bird perched on a pillar filming everything it took of and flew away. Moments later it flew into a building and perched on Soundwave's arm
"So the predacons are attempting to take advantage of the unrest, " he said. "I must alert shockwave at once."
Ginrai went skidding across the street "your pretty strong motormaster let me respond in kind.Ginrai, super transform!"
Motormaster shook his head "why do autobots always telegraph their moves?" he watched as Ginrai's trailer rushed forward "oh great don't tell me. he really has got a super form!"
"Well motormaster you now face super Ginrai!" He punched motormaster who went sailing through the air.
Scourge laughed "impressive Ginrai but its not enough cause now you face.me!"
Scourge rushed forward and shoulder-barged Ginrai. Ginrai fell back then flipped over
"He's strong, extremely strong even in my super form this is going to be a struggle" thought Ginrai. He concentrated refocused his strength and attacked if he couldn't get scourge down for long enough for him to enter the space bridge he wouldn't be able to aid his crew
Scourge literally spun out of the way of Ginrai's charge and kicked him from behind "Really Ginrai! Even sideburn wouldn't have fallen for that move!"
Ginrai shook himself of charged again but this time he leapt through the air somersaulting scourge looked up and was suddenly ripped of his feet as Ginrai's caught scourges head between his legs and hurricanrana'd him
Scourge bounced up "you attacked me with a wrestling move? You actually managed to floor me with a wrestling move!"
Ginrai laughed "what's the matter scourge you don't like wrestling?"
"No its not that." said scourge darting forward "its just. I've always wanted to do this!" he kicked Ginrai in the lower chest area then grabbed him and spun him round. And upside down "For the record Ginrai, this is a tombstone."
Koji watched the battle on TV he gasped this Ginrai was losing he needed help. Koji grabbed his communicator "is there anybody out there? Ginrai needs help!"
Suddenly a face appeared on screen "did you say Ginrai Koji?"
The starglider
"The shield is down!" yelled Starscream "prepare to attack!"
"Im picking up mines" yelled blitzwing.
"Decepticons! Take to the air!" As the aerial decepticons lifted off they came under attack from the remote drones Starscream motioned for the decepticons to pull back "dreadwind darkwing, predators clear a path!"
The five jets took to the air and unleashed a massive missile barrage
Jazz gasped "oh great that lasted long! prepare to fire the main cannons! We only have limited manoeuvrability and they will pick our cannons off given half the chance!"
Sureshot was firing at skywarp and didn't notice Cattila stalking him Suddenly Cattila pounced and razor sharp fangs tore through Sureshot's side he screamed as he fell to the ground where carnivac and Cattila immediately set upon him
"Hang on buddy!" yelled crosshairs as he transformed and rammed into carnivac he grabbed his wounded friend, the decepticons had really done a number on him they had severed a leg and had literally tore chunks out of him. Most of his outer plating was missing. Suddenly crosshairs was thrown off his feet by a blast he turned and saw blitzwing taking aim he said a prayer to primus and levelled his gun at the approaching decepticon tank.
"Say good night autobot," snarled blitzwing
Suddenly blitzwing was sent spinning as hardhead rammed him in the side
"Get to cover" roared hardhead "ill deal with blitzwing!"
Jazz rushed to help crosshairs get sureshot inside he saw highbrow hefting a very large device "Highbrow what's that?" He asked
"It's our last defence." replied highbrow coming into clear view
Jazz gasped as he realised what it was Nightbeat took one look and also gasped
"That's the antimatter reactor, you can't be serious!" shouted Nightbeat.
"Im very serious. Our mission is to protect the earth from decepticons, if we can't stop them they will run riot over the earth. And if we're to fall here today im taking all those cons with us." said highbrow
Tokyo
Scourge grabbed Ginrai by an arm and yanked tearing Ginrai's arm clean off Ginrai stifled a scream of pain and fell back "he was way out of his depth!" He thought to himself
"No scream?" Said scourge "good. I like that in opponents it shows character!" scourge ran forward and grabbed Ginrai flinging him across the street
Ginrai went headfirst through a building he could take much more his systems were starting to fail he struggled up to see scourge charging towards him as scourge swung the sword of fury Ginrai darted to the side scourge let go of the sword with one hand and slammed an elbow into Ginrai's back. Ginrai felt his servos go off line as he smashed into the ground.
"Its over Ginrai" said scourge bringing his sword down to sever Ginrai's head but something stopped him he looked at his arm to see someone was holding him he turned to his left to see motormaster unconscious on the floor he turned to his right and looked at Ginrai's last minute saviour.
"Ultra Magnus?! Weren't you on cybertron?"
"No scourge I wasn't. I've been on this earth all this time and I only just heard of your return to earth. And when Koji told me that-" Ultra Magnus fell back as scourge head butted him and somersaulted away
"Well it looks like I have two of optimus prime's siblings to kill!" he said readying himself to charge
"But then you have to deal with us as well!" said a voice scourge turned round to see a bunch of trains and cars
"Who the?"
"We're Ultra Magnus's soldiers and I really don't think you got the strength to take us all on at once"
"Where the abyss did all these autobots come from! Bah!" snapped Scourge he grabbed motormaster "it seems you and Ginrai live for today but don't worry ill be back Magnus, and your friends cant protect you twenty four seven. Oh and Koji, you cant protect Koji as well can you?" Scourge disappeared laughing manically
Starscream blew up another cannon "this is getting too easy!"
"Well Starscream try this on for size." highbrow walked out with the reactor
"Its anti-matter" gasped carnivac jumping back
"Surely you're not that insane autobot?!" Snapped Starscream
"Oh yes I am if you don retreat right now ill overload this reactor and boom! You know the rest " said highbrow
Cyclonus transformed and turned to Starscream. "I know highbrow from my academy days he doesn't bluff. Might I suggest a tactical withdrawal?"
"Astrotrain!" Shouted Starscream "transform and get us out of here!"
Astrotrain transformed and the decepticons rushed inside carrying their wounded
"This isn't over autobot, not by a long shot!" said Starscream as he entered Astrotrain
The train drove a short way off and disappeared. Highbrow sunk to the floor and sighed, suddenly he heard cheering.
"All right we did it!"
"The decepticons are retreating!"
"Highbrow you da man!"
Highbrow smiled stood up then turned to survey the damage the starglider was wrecked beyond repair he saw at least 3 autobots badly damaged but they were all alive
Suddenly he heard a gasp he turned to see Ultra Magnus and a group of transformers in his arms hung Ginrai.
Minerva drove through town where was all the humans why was she picking up a high techno organic residue she stepped out of her car body and looked around she heard a moaning coming an ally she gasped at what she saw it was people only horribly mutated people she gasped and stepped back as they walked towards her the flesh hanging off their bodies
"Oooookay! What's wrong with this picture?" she gasped
To be continued.
"What?!" Shouted Ginrai "you want me to join you? Did you leave your CPU in the waste disposal unit? I'll never join the decepticons!"
"Why?" said scourge "because I don't fit with the autobot philosophy on how things should be?"
