TRANSFORMERS : DEATH'S HEAD.

**********************************************

Disclaimer :

Death's Head – I do not own Transformers or Death's Head. Mattel, Hasbro, Marvel U.S. and Marvel U.K. have that honour. I own Raiden, Seraphim, Alpha Destroyer, Citadel Supreme and Valkyrie.. Raiden transforms into a fighter, similar in design to the valkyries/veritechs from Macross/Robotech. Seraphim transforms into a F-4 Phantom. Valkyrie transforms into a SAAB 35 Drakken. Alpha Destroyer and Citadel Supreme's vehicle forms will be revealed in following chapters, yes?

Autobot City :

The mighty Autobot City opened fire with all of it's laser cannon and missile emplacements. The catapult launchers rained death upon the Decepticon forces, but they still kept coming. Countless Autobots and Decepticons were destroyed, as Galvatron's plan of Genocide against every Autobot was followed. The binary bonded Autobots and Decepticons fought with ferocity, whilst normal Autobots and Decepticons fought. The Autobots were fighting with guerilla tactics. Autobot City was their base, and more importantly, their home. They knew the best places to lay ambushes against the invaders, but the Decepticons had a battle plan, of sorts, of their own.

Aerial Decepticons flew overhead, dropping bombs wherever the fighting was at it's thickest. But the Autobots fought back. Seraphim led her group against the aerial Decepticons again and again. Six-Shot, in his jet form, chased her.

"Time to die Autobot!"

Six-Shot's cannons spoke and littered the sky around Serephim. She twisted and dove straight for the ground. However, Scourge and Cyclonus were tracking her with their Targetmaster partners. They had drawn a direct bead on her, when Slag and Snarl tackled them. Fracas and Nightstick fell to the ground, as their Decepticon partners fought hand to hand with the two Dinobots.

"Slag punish Scourge."

Slag picked Scourge up and hurled him into the wall. As Scourge hit the wall and fell down to the ground with a thud, Slag transformed into his Triceratops form, and charged. Scourge managed to move, just as Slag hit the wall.

"Damn Dinobot!" Scourge held out his right hand, and Fracas flew into his hand.

Sludge picked up a boulder and threw it at Scourge. A blast from Fracas destroyed the boulder, and Scourge pulled himself to his feet.

"Cyclonus! Transform and take to the air!"

Cyclonus was grappling with Snarl, as he looked at Scourge.

"Blast him!"

Scourge fired Fracas, and the beams hit Snarl in the back. Snarl turned and glared at Scourge, just as Cyclonus fired Nightstick, point blank, into Snarl's back. Snarl staggered and fell down, the blue glow in his eyes faded and died. Sludge hit Cyclonus with such force, the Targetmaster was sent flying through the sky.

Scourge looked at the angry Dinobot, but didn't see Seraphim streaking towards him, Six-Shot right behind her. Seraphim veered right, and Six-Shot slammed into Scourge. Seraphim transformed and landed next to Snarl. Sludge fired his bazooka cannon at Scourge and Six-Shot, then approached Seraphim, who was kneeling next to the fallen Snarl.

"Snarl, fine?"

Seraphim shook her head.

"I'm sorry Sludge. He's gone."

Sludge looked at her, a blank expression on his face. Then, as the information sunk in, grief appeared on his face.

"RRAAAAARRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!" Sludge roared and ran off, blasting shots from his cannon at every Decepticon he saw.

Seraphim sighed, as Slapdash came up to her.

"Seraphim! What happened?"

"Scourge and Cyclonus combined their firepower on Snarl. He's...."

Slapdash nodded.

"Damn these 'Cons. Come on, we need to get moving! Predaking and Computron are heading this way!"

Slapdash transformed and drove off, whilst Seraphim took another look at the fallen Snarl, then transformed and joined the aerial fight.

***************************************************

Meanwhile :

Defensor raised his rifle and fired at Menasor. The joined Stunticons stumbled backwards, then drew it's sword. Defensor fired again, but Menasor deflected the blast.

"PUNY DEFENSOR! DIE!"

Menasor slashed down with his sword, cutting into the Defensor right arm. Defensor retaliated by gripping Menasor's head with his left hand.

"DEFENSOR DEFEAT MENASOR!"

With his immense strength, Defensor ripped Menasor's head off, killing the Motormaster component, and seeding neural feedback damage into the other Stunticons. Defensor stumbled backwards, and was hit from behind by Bruticus. Defensor reverted back into the five Protectobots. Hot Spot glared at Bruticus.

"Damned Combaticons! They're just as annoying as their creator, Starscream!"

Blades ran past Hot Spot.

"Don't worry Hot Spot! We'll send these jokers to the same place Starscream is! The hereafter!!"

Blades transformed and fired two mortar rockets at the giant. Both rockets hit Bruticus in the face.

Bruticus reached up and grabbed Blades.

"BRUTICUS CRUSH BLADES!" The Combaticon monster crushed the Protectobot, killing him instantly.

The remaining Protectobots opened fire at Bruticus, only annoying the giant Decepticon. Sureshot, Crosshairs and Pointblank snuck up, through the wreckage of the city, and were overlooking Bruticus.

"Damn! He got Blades!" Crosshairs snarled.

Poitnblank raised Peacemaker.

"Come on Targetmasters! Let's make the big dummy pay!"

Sureshot smiled and aimed Spoilsport.

"Ok partner, take him out!"

The three Autobot Targetmasters opened fire at Bruticus from behind. Under fire from front and behind, Bruticus snarled and lashed out. His fist slammed into the wall, sending rubble tumbling onto the Protectobots. Hot Spot and Groove leaped away from the falling rubble, whilst Streetwise and First Aid weren't so lucky.

Groove saw Streetwise and Groove's fallen, broken bodies.

"Damn Combaticons!" He turned and fire repeatedly at Bruticus.

Bruticus lifted his left foot and stepped on Groove. Hot Spot stood from where he had leaped and fired at the join of Blast-Off and Onslaught. Under precise fire, Blast-Off and Onslaught could no longer maintain their connection, and as a result Bruticus fell apart into the Combaticons.

The Autobot Targetmasters leaped from their hiding spot, firing at the Combaticons as they fell, and landed next to Hot Spot. Crosshairs fired at Onslaught, as Blast-Off and Vortex transformed and took to the air. Powerglide and Swoop chased them, firing their weapons.

Brawl transformed and was about to fire, when he was hit from behind. Brawl faced his opponent.

"Who dares?"

"I dare Brawl! Time to dance!"

A marone Autobot transformed into tank mode and fired at Brawl, as Sureshot fired as well. Brawl's armour, normally strong enough to withstand numerous shots, was weakened from being forced back into himself, from Bruticus. Unable to withstand the fire, he tried to fire upon the other tank, but failed.

After Brawl's destruction, the tank transformed and approached Sureshot.

"Good shooting Tex!"

"Heh, you too Warpath."

Crosshairs, Hot Spot and Pointblank joined them.

Warpath looked at Hot Spot.

"Sorry about..."

"Let's just make the Decepticons pay." Hot Spot said as he transformed and drove off.

Warpath and the Targetmasters transformed and drove after him. Swindle pulled himself out of the fallen rubble and looked around. Onslaught's remains lay in a twisted heap on the ground, and as Swindle stood, he was hit from behind by Seaspray.

"You Decepticons never learn do you!"

Swindle faced Seaspray, bringing his cannon to bear.

Seaspray kicked the cannon out of Swindle's hand and hit him in the face. Swindle fell backwards, and looked at Seaspray.

Seaspray drew his weapon, when Wingspan swooped down and grabbed Seaspray. The Decepticon spy flew high into the sky and then dropped Seaspray. Swindle grabbed his cannon, aimed, and fired. The blast slammed right into Seaspray's chest, blasting deep into the Autobot's chest and rupturing his internal power pump. Seaspray's body exploded in a burst of flames, as Wingspan transformed and landed next to Swindle.

"Piece of cake."

Swindle laughed.

"Yeah, now let's kill us some more Autobots."

Both Swindle and Wingspan transformed and took off.

***************************************************

On the other side of Autobot City :

Ultra Magnus ducked behind a ruined wall, as Weirdwolf and Snapdragon fired. Ultra Magnus hissed to himself.

"Damn Decepticons! Always doing things the hard way!"

"That's the only way they do things! They can't think of anything complicated!" Kup said as he fired at Apeface.

Apeface shrugged off the shots and transformed. He flew directly at the ruined wall, when Dogfight, in robot form, tackled the Decepticon. Both transformers slammed into the ground, Dogfight rolling and coming to a stop, crouched, blasters drawn. Apeface slammed hard into the ground and didn't move. Dogfight fired his blasters at Snapdragon and Weirdwolf, causing both Decepticons to duck.

Ultra Magnus and Kup joined him at firing at the two Decepticons. Weirdwolf growled to Snapdragon.

"We've got to get out of here!"

Snapdragon rolled his optics.

"Gee, I don't know Weirdwolf, it's so fun here!"

Before Weirdwolf could reply, Blitzwing ran up to them, transforming into tank mode and fired. Dogfight leaped into the air, transforming and flying high. Ultra Magnus launched one of his shoulder missiles, which slammed into Blitzwing. Kup looked at him.

"Gotta move!"

Ultra Magnus nodded and ran off with Kup.

Blitzwing transformed into robot mode and sauntered towards the two Headmasters. He laughed as he looked at them.

"Look at the two of you! Cowering in the dirt!"

Snapdragon saw the Autobot drawing a bead on Blitzwing and was about to warn the Triplechanger, but stopped. Instead he said...

"Blitzwing, nice knowing you. Do yourself a favour and look behind you."

Blitzwing laughed and turned around, as the blaster fire ripped his head from his body. Snapdragon and Weirdwolf laughed.

"Nice shot Autobot!" Weirdwolf yelled to the Autobot sniper.

Snapdragon looked at the smoking remains.

"Couldn't of happened to a nicer mech."

Both Decepticons ran off into the ruins as the Autobot sniper took shots at them as they ran.

***************************************************

Elsewhere :

Metroplex was fighting Tripticon, in the lake surrounding Autobot city.

"PATHETIC AUTOBOT! DIE!"

Twin rocket launchers fired from a hidden launcher in Tripticon's arm, which slammed into Metroplex's chest. Metroplex staggered backwards, but also drew his blaster rifle and fired at Tripticon's head. Fortunately for the massive Decepticon, he dodged the blast and fired the twin blasters in his mouth, into Metroplex's face. Metroplex fell backwards into the lake, part of his face destroyed. Tripticon laughed.

"HA, HA, HA, HA, AUTOBOT. TIME TO DIE."

An Autobot shuttle, piloted by remote, slammed into the side of Tripticon's head, breaking the armour, and damaging his internal workings, including his CPU. Tripticon's face wore a blank expression as he fell face first into the lake. Metroplex fired his blaster rifle at Tripticon, making sure the Decepticon wasn't going to stand again.

Metroplex managed to stand and looked back at the city. Laser fire and missile streaked through the air, and for the moment, the Autobots had the advantage with Metroplex.
