"Tarantulas, are you trying to make a fool of me?" Megatron asked Tarantulas

"No I am not, even look at the screen,"

Megatron and the rest of the Predicons looked at the screen, and sure enough, there were pony's everywhere, not only that but they were speaking English, lived in houses, had strange colours, and most strange of them all, some of them had horns or wings. Megatron got a sudden smirk on his face.

"Tarantulas these ponies will work perfectly for your machine, how about finding eight of them?"

Tarantulas turned on the scanners, and after 10 minutes eight images appeared on the screen, six mares and two stallions.

"Predicons go out and find those eight ponies!" Megatron ordered and the seven Predicon went into their beast mode and went out of the ship to find the ponies.

Applejack and her older brother Big Macintosh were apple bucking, while their younger sister Apple Bloom was following them and picking up the apples that were left over. Meanwhile Quickstrike and Rampage were further in the woods looking at the three ponies.

"There they are, I can't to slag them, slightly," Quickstrike said, remembering that they had to capture them for Tarantulas' machine.

"I wonder what kind of sound the small one will make," Rampage said, his lust to kill coming into full bloom.

"You can do that, while I get the two we need, Quickstrike, terrorize!"

"Rampage, Terrorize!"

The two Predicons yelled and transformed into their robot mode. They ran towards the three ponies and readied their weapons.

Apple Jack and Big Macintosh were sweating from the work they were doing.

"You know Big Mac, sometimes I wonder if anything normal will happen to Ponyville," Apple Jack said to her older brother, who just gave a small nod. Apple Jack was going to say something else, but was interrupted when a tree behind them exploded.

"What in the hay just happened!" Apple Jack shouted. Looking in fro of her stood two metal creatures, one was short, had some green and yellow colour, and had a viper for a right hand, beside him was a huge red metal creature with a gun.

"I missed," said the red creature.

"Well partner we got their attention, now let's slag them!" the short creature shouted and fired beams out of the viper on its right arm. Big Macintosh and Apple Jack hid behind a tree with their little sister.

"Apple Bloom, get to the house and warn Granny Smith!" Apple Jack yelled.

"But what about you and Big Mac!"

"We'll be fine, just warn her!" Apple Bloom looked at her sister and brother, and with a slight nod, she ran off. Apple Jack looked at her brother and gave a smirk.

"I helped defeat Nightmare Moon, Discord, and a whole herd of Changelings, I think that you and I can beat these things,"

"Eeyup,"

The two ponies got out of cover and charged at the two creatures, dodging their attack. Apple Jack was charging at the short creature, and Big Macintosh was charging at the red creature.

Apple Jack ran right up to the short creature and bucked it, but was surprised to see that the creature just stumbled backwards a bit and didn't even have a dent in it.

"I have to admit that was quite the kick you have," the creature said and Apple Jack just stood in shock.

Big Macintosh was charging at the red creature at full speed, but all the red creature did was stand in its spot and laugh.

"So you play it like that? Okay then!" the red creature said and ran towards the red stallion. Big Macintosh narrowed his eyes as the red creature came closer. The two hit and the red stallion was sent flying backwards into a tree. Big Macintosh got up and pain and shock, no creature could be that strong. He heard a scream and turned around to see that Apple Jack was knocked out, he ran to his sister but was hit by a green beam and fell to the ground unconscious. The red creature picked up Big Macintosh and the short creature picked up Apple jack.

"Boss Bot, we got two of them," Quickstrike said in his comlink.

"Excellent, take them to the base and put them into one of the pods," the voice on the other said.

"Whatever you say Boss Bot," Quickstrike said and he and Rampage walked off to the base.

Rainbow Dash was flying around the outskirts of Ponyville, she had no weather duties, and she didn't feel like napping.

Some distance away, Waspinator was looking at Rainbow Dash and talking to himself.

"Waspinator hopes that Rainbow Pony Bot won't blow Waspinator to scraps, Waspinator Terrorize!" Waspinator yelled and went into his robot mode and flew towards Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash was getting tired and saw a stray cloud to lie on, but when she got close the cloud, a projectile flew right by her and hit the cloud, making it explode. Looking at where it came from, she saw a flying green metal creature.

"What the Hay are you!"

"Waspinator name is Waspinator, and Waspinator will get Rainbow Pony Bot,"

Rainbow Dash, looked at the creature with confusion, she never heard a creature talk like that, or call anypony something like that.

"Well if want to get me, you have to catch me," Rainbow Dash said and flew off; the green creature flew after Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash smirked as the green creature fired at her, but all the shots were dodged. The green creature was losing its patience that was when it got an idea. It fired its projectile at Rainbow Dash, but when she dodged it, the creature fired lasers out of its eyes and the lasers hit Rainbow Dash in the head, knocking her out. The creature caught the unconscious Rainbow Dash, but before it could fly off, the creature felt a tap on its shoulder and turned around to see a blue Pegasus looking at it with daggers in the Pegasus's eye.

"May I ask what you are doing to the pony that saved my pie?"

"Waspinator can't answer, till Blue Pony Bot tell Waspinator who Blue Pony Bot is,"

"My name is Soarin, and I am going to kick your flan..." the Pegasus named Soarin started to say but was cut off when a blast hit the back of Soarin's head and the green creature caught him.

Waspinator was confused, sure the other pony he needed was knocked out so he didn't have to do anything, but he didn't know who did it. He saw Inferno flying some meters away with his blaster barrel smoking.

"Royalty, two of the ponies have been captured, Waspinator will bring them to base," Inferno said into his comlink.

"Good work, tell Waspinator to put those ponies into the machine,"

"As you command my queen," Inferno turned off the comlink and told Waspinator the orders, Waspinator nodded and flew towards the base.

Fluttershy was in her garden taking care of all the animals, but in a tree Blackaracnia was watching the yellow pony doing her work.

"This will be easier than I expected, but it will be less work for me," Blackaracnia said and a trap out of her blue web for the yellow Pegasus pony to get trapped in.

Fluttershy was flying low to the ground, smiling as she made all the small animals happy, but her happiness faded away as a thing of blue webs went around her and pulled her up to the top of the trees, there she saw a giant Black Widow spider crawl up to her and bite her, injecting the yellow pony with venom. Fluttershy's eye lids drooped till she was fast asleep.

"That was an easy mission, but still I have to carry her to the base, Blackaracnia, Terrorize!" Blackaracnia shouted and went into robot mode, she went onto her comlink to tell Megatron about the success, and was given the order to take the pony to the machine.

Pinkie Pie was in the outskirts of Ponyville, looking for something to do. She didn't have anypony to prank, and all of her friends were busy. Above the pink pony Inferno was flying over her ready to take the shot.

"The royalty wants this pony, and he will have it," Inferno took the shot, but it was off and he missed, but still caused an explosion. Pinkie Pie looked up to see the ant Predicon and smiled.

"Hey did you see that cool explosion, it was like "Boom" but you probably saw it from up there," Inferno landed in front of Pinkie Pie, who gasped at the sight of him.

"Wow, what are you some sort of metal creature from space, creatures that have ant peices on their bodies, wow you have sharp teeth, and you have a really fat flank,"

Inferno looked at the pink pony with confusion, this pony was way too happy, and way to annoying, so to save his hearing optics he punch the pink pony in the head and she was knocked out. Inferno picked up the unconscious pony and flew off to the base.

Rarity was walking to Sweet Apple Acres with her sister Sweetie Bell, because this was another day of Rarity's little sister and her friends trying to get their Cutie Marks. Not far away, Tarantulas was watching the two.

"So it looks like the marshmallow pony and the small pony are off to go someplace with no protection, well they will learn their mistake, Tarantulas, Terrorize!" Tarantulas yelled and went into robot mode, and ran to the two.

Sweetie Bell was telling Rarity how she and her friends will get their Cutie Marks, Rarity nodded not really listening, then something caught her eyes, a small yellow filly was running towards them. Rarity recognized that is was Apple Jacks little sister, Apple Bloom, but for some odd reason she was crying.

"Apple Bloom, what's wrong?" Rarity asked as the small yellow filly came to a stop.

"Rarity, you got to help, Apple Jack and Big Macintosh have been kidnapped," Apple Bloom said in between sobs.

"Who kidnapped them Apple Bloom!"

"It was a short green creature with a cobra for a right arm, and a big red creature,"

"You must mean Quickstrike and Rampage little filly," an unknown voice said, the three ponies turned towards the voice and saw a metal creature that had what looked like metallic spider pieces. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Bell hid behind a tree and Rarity was standing her ground.

'Who are you and what have you done to Apple Jack and Big Macintosh!" Rarity yelled as her horn glow blue, Tarantulas looked at the horn with curiosity.

"My name is Tarantulas, and tell me, what does the glow of your horn mean?"

"It means this!" Rarity yelled and used her magic to throw a rock at Tarantulas, who brought out a gun and shot the rock, making it explode. The three ponies stared in disbelief and fear.

"That was a clever trick, but now I must show you mine," Tarantulas took out a different gun and shot at Rarity, the Marshmallow pony was hit by it, and went to the ground unconscious.

"Rarity!" Sweetie Bell yelled and ran to her big sister.

"Not so fast filly, or I will do something worse to you," Tarantulas said, and Sweetie Bell backed away. Tarantulas went over to Rarity and picked up her body.

"Little fillies, tell the other ponies that the Predicons are here," after saying that Tarantulas went into his beast mode and drove off, leaving Apple Bloom and Sweetie Bell shaking and crying.

Twilight Sparkle was walking from Zecora's house and was walking back to Ponyville, little did she know that the Predicon Leader, Megatron, was watching her.

"Well, time to get that pony yes, Megatron, Terrorize!" Megatron yelled and went into his robot mode, he hovered a few meters in the air and began to fire at Twilight Sparkle.

Twilight Sparkle heard some bangs and saw some purple beams come towards her, she teleported away from the shots and reappeared a few meters away. She looked around to see where the beams came from and saw Megatron looking at her with a smirk.

"That is quite the power you have, yes, and that power will be with the Predicons soon," Megatron said and once again fired at the purple unicorn. Twilight Sparkle dodged and teleported away from the shots, but was tired out after doing it for 10 minutes, one of the beams hit a branch and the branch broke off hitting Twilight Sparkles head knocking her out.

Twilight Sparkle woke up and saw herself in a glass tube, she looked to her around to see that her friends were also in glass tubes and awake.

"Twilight, thank Celestia that you are alright, listen can you use your magic to get out," Apple Jack said, Twilight Sparkle nodded and her horn began to glow purple, but she was hit by a electric circuit, she went to the ground in pain and panted.

"I wouldn't do that Twilight Sparkle,"

Twilight Sparkle turned her head to the sound and saw Megatron standing there with six other creatures.

"How did you know my name?"

"I had Tarantulas do some research on you eight so we know who you all are, Apple Jack, Rainbow Dash, Big Macintosh, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Soarin,"

"Okay what is your name?"

"I am Megatron, leader of the Predicons, and with me are Waspinator, Rampage, Tarantulas, Blackaracnia, Inferno, and Quickstrike,"

"Wait why is Soarin here?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"I was suppose to give you a seasons pass to all the Wonderbolt air shows, but I was captured," Soarin said, now Rainbow Dash normally would be excited by this, but right now she was angry at the fact that these Predicons are keeping her in a glass tube.

"What are you going to do with us Megatron?" Twilight Sparkle asked.

"we are going to turn you into Predicons, you will have the ability to transform from beast to robot," Megatron said, making the ponies gasp.

"You just can't do that!" Rainbow Dash yelled. Megatron laughed at the rainbow Pegasus.

"Well I am, Tarantulas, start the machine!"

Tarantulas nodded and started the machine, the eight ponies grew scared and suddenly felt blue electrical currents go into their bodies. They fell to the ground screaming in pain, they could feel themselves get heavier as they stopped breathing, but to their surprise they didn't have to, it was like their lungs disappeared. They felt their hearts beat slower and slower, until there was nothing left. The machine stopped and the glass tubes opened. The eight ponies stood up and saw Megatron laugh in delight.

"Welcome my new Predico..."

"Warning eight Maximals are in the base,"

Megatron stopped laughing when he heard the ships AI, how could there be eight Maximals in the ship, unless.

"Tarantulas, what chip is in the machine?" Megatron asked viciously. Tarantulas presses a button to see a compartment open to see a Maximal chip.

"It's a Maximal chip, but don't worry as long as they don't say their names and say Maximize, we will be alright," Tarantulas said in a panic, realizing to late that he told the eight ponies what to do. Rainbow Dash looked at the Predicons and smiled.

"Thanks for the tip, Rainbow Dash, Maximize!"

"Apple Jack, Maximize!"

"Twilight Sparkle, Maximize!"

"Rarity, Maximize!"

"Pinkie Pie, Maximize!"

"Fluttershy, Maximize!"

"Soarin, Maximize!"

"Big Macintosh, Maximize!"

After saying the code words, the eight ponies went into their robot modes, the Predicons had faces of fear and shock.

"Now how about we teach you a lesson," Twilight Sparkle said and took out a small blaster, the other seven ponies took out their guns and pointed them at the Predicons and fired, a huge explsion happened and the seven Predicons were on the ground in pieces. The eight ponies walked out of the base.

"Well that was satisfying!" Rainbow Dash said, smiling.

"Yeah, but one problem, how do we turn back?" Soarin asked, and the eight ponies stopped in their tracks.

"I don't know?" Twilight Sparkle said.
