Hot Shot's girl: This is during the episode Megatron's raid, but you know me I changed it a bit :)
Megatron can't be back . . . can he? wondered Hot Shot. That would explain how all the decepticons attacking us, but how can he be back? . . . for some strange reason I knew deep down in my spark that he was still alive. The bot never dies.
Then as Megatron came out of the portal before Hot Shot he knew it was true.
I was right, thought Hot Shot. I hate it when I'm right.
Megatron then came down and began shooting everything and everyone. Even though Megatron was stronger than him Hot Shot wasn't going to give up without a fight. Megatron seemed to be after their energon . . . but why did he need it? The battle didn't go on for long as all were killed.
Hot Shot found he was that last one standing, but he still fought even though it was hopeless. he had sent out a distress signal to Optimus, but even he couldn't get there that fast. Hot Shot was surrounded by the decepticons.
"Heh, heh, give it up autobot," giggled Cyclonus.
"You're gonna pay Cyclonus!" growled Hot Shot throwing his blaster to the ground.
Megatron then came with his blaster raised to Hot Shot. He pointed it straight at Hot Shot's head and readied to fire. He then took a good long look at Hot Shot and then lowered his weapon.
"Wait . . . I remember you," he said coming closer to Hot Shot.
Hot Shot was backed against a cliff so he had nowhere to go.
"Stay back Megatron!" said Hot Shot looking for a way to escape the decepticons.
"Hot Shot," smiled Megatron. "I remember you. You were the one who tried to tell me about Unicron. You were quite brave in coming alone to meet me . . . I admired that."
Megatron then began to circle Hot Shot. He looked Hot Shot up and down and grinned as he said-
"Tell me Hot Shot. Why do you still work under Prime, hm?"
"Don't even try Megatron!" growled Hot Shot. "MY allegiance is to Optimus Prime and Optimus alone!"
"Really?" smirked Megatron.
He then looked at his hands and they then began to glow a bright green. Hot Shot didn't like the looks of it and knew it couldn't be good.
"W-what's that?" asked Hot Shot almost afrid to know.
"You see when I was trapped within Unicron I found that I could fuse the darkness of my spark with any bot and they will become my servant forever," Megatron grinned evily at Hot Shot.
"NO!" cried Hot Shot. "You can't do that to me!!"
"Watch me!" shouted Megatron running at Hot Shot.
But then Hot Shot used the cliff to push off against as he kicked Megatron away and then tried to make a break for it, but the other decepticons caught Hot Shot and held him while Megatron came to him with his fists glowing.
"No . . . NO!!" cried Hot Shot his mind going back to Unicron's torture years.
He knew what the pain would feel like. He knew how much it would hurt. He knew too much.
"Ha, ha, that's right. Hold him down boys," laughed Megatron as he came to Hot Shot.
Megatron then placed his hand up to Hot Shot's spark and whispered in Hot Shot's audio receivers before he did anything-
"Welcome to the decepticons . . . Hot Shot."
Before Hot Shot could say anything Megatron thrust the darkness of his own spark into Hot Shot's making him cry out a horrible scream. Hot Shot had pain upon his spark before, but he had been out of torture to long and now his spark had gotten used to relaxing and not being hurt and so the sudden pain caught him off guard and forced his memories of his torture years to play in his mainframe like some sick horror movie that gave all nightmares to who watched it. Hot Shot did not wish to feel this pain ever again. Then, as Megatron continued to thrust his dark spark into Hot Shot, he saw something that caught hold of him in a quick moment and he had not exspected on seeing . . . Unicron.
"UNICRON?!" he said releasing Hot Shot.
Hot Shot stood their gasping in pain as Megatron just gazed at him saying-
"He carries the spark of Unicron!"
"What?!" cried Cyclonus. "I thought we got rid of him for good. We have to kill him then if we want to be rid of Unicron."
"Destroy Unicron!" shouted Tidal wave.
"Yes, but first," smiled Megatron taking his sword out. "Not before I give him the torture he deserves!"
Hot Shot then looked at Meagtron and saw him coming to him with his sword.
"NO!" gasped Hot Shot.
But it was too late. Megatron had sliced his arm clear off. Hot Shot fell to the ground in pain. His optics failing him.
Megatron then stood over him with his sword pointed striaght at Hot Shot's spark.
"No . . . please," gasped Hot Shot his voice light. "Why are you doing this?"
"Take this Unicron!" he said stabbing down.
But then a portal opened before them stopping Megatron from killing Hot Shot. It was the autobots.
"Well, looks like Prime will make it after all," grinned Megatron.
The autobots exited the portal and found the city wipped clean of any inhabitants. All their men were gone. Kicker was with them as well and couldn't believe what he was sing. How could a single decepticon do this?
"Where is Hot Shot?" asked Kicker as he looked around for them.
Then as Ironhide looked around he saw them.
"Hot Shot?" he started wondering if it was him. "HOT SHOT!"
Ironhide saw his hero being held by the evil leader of the decepticons . . . Megatron. All looked and saw that Hot Shot wasn't online. In fact he wasn't in that good of a condition either. As Optimus saw this he only grew angry.
The look on Optimus' face was familiar to Megatron, but where he has seen it before was a little blurry to him. He only remembered seeing it when they were in Unicron, but why he couldn't remember.
"Megatron put Hot Shot down. Your fight is with me!" said Optimus trying to stay calm.
Megatron just grinned as he looked down at Hot Shot and thought-
I'll just kill him another day. Cursed autobots always come at the wrong time.
Megatron then threw Hot Shot to the ground between them. Ironhide and Kicker ran to see if Hot Shot was okay, but he wasn't moving. They got so mad that they had to be stopped from fighting Megatron themselves. Optmus had to tell them no.
"But Optimus, look what they did to Hot Shot!!" cried Kicker.
"I know what he did to Hot Shot Kicker," said Optimus trying to withhold his anger. "But right now Hot Shot's well being is above all else. If we fight Megatron and lose then he will die. We need to get him back to Ocean city."
All knew Optimus was right and so all backed down, even though some didn't want to. Megatron then demanded all their energon and Optimus agreed only if they could return to base. Megatron allowed them to, but warned them if they didn't give their energon. So they left back to Ocean city.
There they tried their best to heal Hot Shot. He would be fine. They easily healed his severed arm. Hot Shot was still unconscious though and Optimus decided he's rather fight Megatron then give his energon.
Alpha Q found out about Megatron trying to kill the holder of Unicron's spark and so decided to take things into his own hands since his horsemen weren't doing anything. His terrorcons and battle ravange drones were stolen and his horsemen were off looking for Hot Shot and so he decided to make his own servant from pure energon. It would take all he had and his body would not be complete because of the lack of energon. They revived an old decepticon named . . . Starscream.
"What . . . where am I . . . who am I?" he asked as his ghostly form came into view.
"You are in Unicron and your name is Starscream," he said.
Starscream then gazed at his body and found he was incomplete. He found that he could only turn whole for a short moment in time.
"We had not the enough amount of energon to restore your full body, but this form allows you to go through any object you wish," said Alpha Q. "You are our servant now and I tell you to go and destroy the autobot leader Optimus Prime and the decepticon leader Megatron."
When he had said the name Megatron Starscream had recognized it, but he couldn't remember why.
"I . . . recognize that name . . . Who is it, or who was it?" asked Starscream.
"He was in your past life Starscream, but he is now your enemy and you will destroy your enemy," orgered Alpha Q.
"Yes, my master," bowed Starscream as he vanished and sought his enemies.
Megatron came for his energon like he said he would and as Optimus fought an unsepected bot came and joined them. It was Starscream, but none had fully seen him. Soon, as they battled, Starscream vanished and was seen no more. Megatron's raid was soon stopped as the omnicons came and gave all duplicates of Megatron's sword.
"Err, I will return Optimus Prime!" growled Megatron. "I will have that energon!"
He then left and so did the rest of the decepticons. Hot Shot had not waken up yet, but he was doing well. As Hot Shot slept Optimus just waited for him to wake up he knew he would soon. As he gazed at him he heard an alarming voice ring in his audio receptores-
"Do you know why I tried to kill him Prime?"
Optimus jumped to his feet and turned to see . . .
"Megatron?!" gasped Optimus as he gazed at the evil ruler. "What are you doing here?!"
"To warn you," said Megatron.
"Warn me . . . warn me of what?!" asked Optimus his optics narrowing.
"Of him!" said Megatron as he pointed as Hot Shot sleeping peacefully in his bed.
"What?!" gasped Optimus as he gazed at his son.
"He is both our enemies . . . he weilds the spark of Unicron!" said Megatron.
"NO!" said Optimus coming near his son.
"You know Optimus . . . I can't remember, but there was something important about him to you . . . but because I've been gone too long I can't remember," smiled Megatron.
Optimus was silent as Megatron tried to figure this out, but then Optimus had enough and wanted Megatron out and away from Hot Shot.
"Alpha Q tried to keep this secret from me, but I'm smarter than he thinks," smiled Megatron gazing at Hot Shot so vulnrable to attack.
He then looked at Optimus and straightened and said-
"You better kill him quick 'cause they'll be coming for him soon."
"Who?!" asked Optimus wanting to know who was after Hot Shot.
"Unicron's horsemen," said Megatron. "So hurry and kill him and if you want to you can make it quick and painless."
"You can't espect me to do that!" spat Optimus.
"Then I will," said Megatron plainly.
Optimus then stepped before Hot Shot letting Megatron know he'd have to get through him first if he wanted to do so. Megatron just grinned and shook his head a bit. He then glanced one last time at Hot Shot and then at Optimus and said-
"When he gets better. If he does know how to use Unicron's power then he should be fun to kill."
Megatron then left and Optimus slowly sat back down trying to comprehend what Megatron had just said about Hot Shot. It couldn't be true. Hot Shot couldn't hold the spark of Unicron. Optimus then remembered when he found Hot Shot that he said Unicron had done something to him, and he had his hand placed over his spark.
