I do not own Transformers. This takes place during "War of the Dinobots."
Weeks later, Soundwave was flying towards a city to intercept the Autobots and to discover the Dinobots' weaknesses. Something caught his optic as he looked up and found a dragon-like metallic creature flying above him. The creature appeared to be female in appearance, but before Soundwave can probe its thoughts, it vanished. Unknown creature spotted. Origin: Unknown. Behavior: Unknown thought Soundwave before he landed within an abandoned neighborhood and transformed into his boom box mode and began recording the Autobots' conversation.
"Thanks for letting me tag along, Optimus Prime" said Chip, the handicapped boy genius as he talked with Optimus. "You sighted the meteor, Chip. It's only fair" said Optimus to the boy. "Hey, maybe they will even name it after you. Meteor-Chip-o-roni or something" said Spike Witwicky before a loud rumbling was heard above them. "Ready, it's entering Earth's atmosphere" said Hound. "There, I see it" said Spike as Optimus said "Everyone, take cover!" as the meteor crash-landed.
As the Autobots approached the meteor, a metal dragon appeared on the scene with a seeker femme. The seeker extended some tentacles from her body, and began absorbing energy. "Stay back! We don't know who these creatures are" said Optimus as he carefully approached the femmes. The dragon looked towards Optimus as he said "Hello, my name is Optimus Prime. I mean you no harm. I just want to collect a piece of that fallen meteor so my friend Wheeljack can examine it. We would like to know what types of unknown energies this meteor contains." The dragon looked hard at Optimus, before it swiftly lifted its tail and broke off a chunk for Optimus. It handed the rock to Optimus as it nodded and recoiled its tail. "Thank you" said Optimus as he bowed, and then handed the fragment to Wheeljack. "I can't wait to get to work on this" said Wheeljack as he held the rock fragment.
"Meanwhile, Slag, Grimlock, and Sludge will guard the meteorite against the Decepticons. Under no circumstances are they to attack the dragon or the seeker femme. Autobots, roll out" said Optimus as he and the others transformed and headed towards base.
After about twenty minutes, the seeker and the dragon took off. "So Grandma, how was that energy from the meteorite?" asked Pulse. "It feels…weird. It's causing havoc within my systems" said Berserk as her flight patterns became a little bit unstable. They landed soon, and Berserk rested flat on her back as she rubbed her midsection. She rested on the ground for hours as she rubbed her stomach and groaned. A loud explosion caught their attention, as the femmes looked towards the horizon. "What was that?" groaned Berserk. "I don't know, but whatever it was, I don't think that anything that was near it survived" said Pulse.
Berserk sat up and said "My systems are better now. Whatever was in that meteorite, the energies have subsided. It just took a few hours for my virus to stabilize its energy." "Can you fly now?" asked Pulse. Berserk nodded, as she transformed and Pulse followed her fly across the sky.
Back at the Autobot base, Optimus sat thinking. Whoever those two creatures were, they probably perished if they absorbed that meteorite's energy. He sighed. He wished that he could have known them better on who they were.
"Argh! Watch it, Sparkplug" said Ironhide as the human operated on the Autobot. "What's wrong, the oil too hot?" asked Sparkplug. Laserbeak watched the two from above as she chirped. For the last few weeks, she was very grateful that the Autobots had taken her in, but she still missed her parents dearly. She also missed her siblings a lot (she was very lonely that she had no playmates of her age to play with.)
A loud rumbling shook the base as Ironhide turned his head and said "What the?" He got off the berth, and began monitoring the ground. "What's shaking?" asked Sideswipe as he came in. "Center of the disturbance is over there" said Ironhide as he pointed down the hall. Bumblebee ran down the hallway as Laserbeak followed him. "It's Rumble" said Bumblebee. "Ironhide? Bumblebee? What's going on?" asked Spike as he came in with Sideswipe. "Nothing that a little flare fire can't clear up" said Sideswipe as he aimed at Rumble, but Ravage jumped at him.
"RAVAGE! BIG SISTER!" cawed Laserbeak as she tackled Ravage as she hugged him again. This caused Rumble to stop his pounding and just stare at his sibling being tackled by a Lazerbeak doppelganger. "Ha ha ha ha!" laughed Rumble before he fell to the ground holding his sides and kicking his feet in the air. "Will somebody please get this crazy bird-bot off of me?" shouted Ravage. "I don't know, Ravage. You make a cute couple with that bird" laughed Rumble. "Caw caw" cawed Decepticon Lazerbeak as he grabbed Sparkplug and flew him out of the volcano. "Let me go! Help!" screamed Sparkplug. Laserbeak took notice of this, and she flew off after Sparkplug. "Let's go, Ravage" called Rumble as the cyber-cat followed him out of the base and to Soundwave.
As Decepticon Lazerbeak flew Sparkplug to the Decepticon base, Laserbeak followed them. He flew in with Sparkplug, as the little femme followed. Decepticon Lazerbeak turned his head, and he saw the little femme next to him. "Who are you?" asked Decepticon Lazerbeak. "My name is Laserbeak" cawed the little femme happily. "No it isn't. My name is Lazerbeak" said Decepticon Lazerbeak. "Then, 'Laserbeak' must be a popular name" said the little femme. Decepticon Lazerbeak growled as he waited for the elevator to open up to Megatron. "Let me go, you big-legged beaked puffin" said Sparkplug as Decepticon Laserbeak held on to him. "Lazerbeak, where are your manners? Let our guest take a seat" said Megatron as he kicked a mechanical chair for Decepticon Lazerbeak to drop Sparkplug in. "Guest, huh? A prisoner is more like it" said Sparkplug. "What's a prisoner?" asked Laserbeak as she flew up to Sparkplug.
"Who is responsible for letting this little pest in?" snarled Megatron in a rage. Just then, Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker came in, with the first two fighting. "Silence, control yourselves" said Megatron. Sparkplug looked around, and then ran for the controls. "One of these might open a door for out of here" said Sparkplug. A mechanical hand reached for Sparkplug, and pushed him back in the chair as Dr. Arkeville said "Don't go yet. I have something that will interest you" as he held up a tiny microchip. "It had better function, doctor, or you may cease functioning" said Megatron. Laserbeak chirped, and then she plucked the chip out of the doctor's hand and ate it. The doctor looked at Laserbeak in shock, then shouted "You stupid bird! That was my microchip! What do you have to say for yourself?" "Do you have any more? It was tasty" said Laserbeak. "You…you…you" snarled Dr. Arkeville before he reached out with his hands and began strangling Laserbeak. What happened next were what the Decepticons' poor audios couldn't handle as the little bird let off the loudest screech ever.
Far above Earth, Star Warrior Soundwave was searching for Laserbeak as he picked up a loud screech on his sensors. He zeroed in on a general area, but before he could get a fix, the screech ended. "Contacting Pulse. This is Soundwave. Contacting Pulse. I may have located the general area where Laserbeak may be on Earth" communicated Soundwave to his granddaughter. "Good. Have you found Mom yet?" asked Pulse. "Negative. I haven't located her. I'll focus on finding Laserbeak before I can try to find your mom" said Soundwave. "Ok. Pulse out" said Pulse.
Back on Earth, Megatron was instructing Thundercracker to make the final touches on the energy pylons. He had Laserbeak in a cage besides him, with her mouth tied with some wire. She looked around helplessly as the Decepticons were putting their final touches on their plan. I wish that Mommy and Daddy were here thought Laserbeak as she began to cry. She cried for a long time, and didn't even notice that the Autobots had arrived on the scene. Laserbeak only began noticing the battle when Optimus and Megatron were fighting by the pylon where her cage was located. "That's the last one you're activating, Megatron" said Optimus as he struggled to hold down Megatron from pushing the button. "Correct. You'll be activating the last one and will be bringing Cybertron here" said Megatron. "As the Earthlings say, 'Fat chance, Fathead'" said Optimus. Laserbeak couldn't help but giggle at what Optimus called Megatron.
"If you don't, you'll be responsible for Cybertron's destruction" said Megatron. "Destruction? But there are still many inhabitants, friends, on Cybertron" said Optimus. "Then make your choice, Optimus Prime" said Megatron as he pointed to the pylon as Optimus approached it. Laserbeak tried to caw, but the wire held her beak tight. "Agh, very well, Megatron. You win" said Optimus sadly as he pressed the button.
The sky opened up, and Cybertron was approaching the Earth. Winds, earthquakes, tidal waves, and other forms of natural disasters occurred as the Earth shook. Laserbeak widened her optics as she flapped her wings around frantically as she panicked at what was going on. "Argh, this is only the beginning" said Megatron "The sum of Earth's magnificent energy will be mine! I have won" before he began laughing. Optimus then bent low and released Laserbeak from her prison as he held her close to his chassis. She trembled in fright as he asked "Have I saved Cybertron only to destroy the Earth?"
Just outside Earth's atmosphere, Star Warrior Soundwave had picked up the pylons for the Space Bridge Pyramid on his equipment. He zoomed in on a spot, and saw the Decepticons fighting the Autobots, and he saw Laserbeak with Optimus. "Pulse? I have located Laserbeak. Get Berserk and Buzzsaw ready for battle. I will send the coordinates of where they are" said Soundwave through the link.
Optimus approached Ironhide and said sadly "My actions my have cost Earth its future." Laserbeak looked up at the Prime and chirped. He looked down at the little bird and stroked her head, saying "And, I may have caused this little sparkling to grow up in a universe dominated by the Decepticons." "You did what you had to do, Prime. What any of us would have done" said Ironhide.
"Now, there will be no power in the universe to resist me" said Megatron. "Decepticon rule forever" laughed Megatron, before a powerful beam of black energy shot down at him. Megatron scrambled to get out of the way. "Pathetic Autobots. Can't they see that we're invincible" snarled Starscream before several bolts of lightning rained down on him. The mysterious dragon flew down from the skies, and began blasting at the Decepticons, causing them to panic. "Autobots, transform and retreat" commanded Optimus as he and the others transformed and drove away as the area was pelted with lightning and black energy. Laserbeak kept on cawing as she was driven away, flapping her arms as if she was frightened. "Mama! Papa!" she cawed repeatedly. The Autobots' retreat did not go unnoticed as Buzzsaw saw the Autobots escape with Laserbeak. He cawed, then flew after them. He wanted to find his sister.
After the Decepticons have retreated, Star Warrior Soundwave looked around, then said "Where is Laserbeak?" Pulse looked around, then asked "Has anybody seen Buzzsaw?" Both seekers looked at Pulse in shock, then looked around. They couldn't find Laserbeak nor Buzzsaw anywhere. Berserk had tears flowing from her optics as she began crying for her lost sparklings. Soundwave placed a servo on his sparkmate's back and said "Don't worry, Berserk. We'll find them soon." First Ravage, then Laserbeak, and now Buzzsaw? How many more sparklings must I lose? I'm the worst sire in the universe thought Soundwave to himself.
"Ironhide, where are you?" asked Optimus as Laserbeak was resting on his seats with her head under her wing. She was quietly mourning for being separated from her parents. "Right on your caboose, Prime, but I can't even see your taillights" said Ironhide. "I can't even see the road. I'm going to reverse the polarity of my windshield to repel all rain and hail molecules" said Optimus. "Roger, I'll hang back" said Ironhide. "Everything is cool with me, Ironhide, long as I have my magnet beams locked on your bumper, I can just lay back and leave the driving to you" said Jazz. "Polarity switch on. Ah, much better" said Optimus. Laserbeak pulled her head out from under her wing and looked outside. "It still looks scary out there" said Laserbeak. "Don't worry, Laserbeak. We'll be at the base before you know it" said Optimus.
Overhead, Buzzsaw was flying and saw a yellow car stop. A human climbed out, and a wheel just seemed to jump out at him. Buzzsaw hovered above them, and saw the human change the tire as he was talking to the car. The car seemed to jack itself up as the human switched the tires. Autobot located thought Buzzsaw as he flew down and landed next to the human. "Spike, look out! It's Buzzsaw!" yelled Bumblebee as Spike turned his head, and saw a bird that was a little bit larger than Laserbeak. Unlike Laserbeak, this one seemed cold and cruel. Its little optics seemed to cut into Spike's soul as it asked "Where is Laserbeak?" Before Spike could answer, the ground began to rumble. "Hey, what's happening? What's that noise?" asked Spike. "Earthquake" exclaimed Bumblebee as the earth began to break apart.
"Roll for it" called out Spike. "No, I'll fall in" said Bumblebee as his tires were what were keeping him from falling into the earth. "Can you transform?" called out Spike. Bumblebee transformed, but the crack grew wider as he held on for dear life on the ledge. Spike tried to jump, but Buzzsaw gripped his shoulders. "Hey, let me go!" shouted Spike. Bumblebee then looked up and said "Uh-oh! Looks like that we've got more company" as Decepticon Lazerbeak flew above them. Buzzsaw looked up, then let go of Spike as he flew towards his sister's counterpart. "Laserbeak?" asked Buzzsaw. The metal condor flew in closer as Buzzsaw squawked "You're not my sister!" Decepticon Lazerbeak then fired at Buzzsaw, as the little golden condor screamed in pain as his wings got burnt. A bright flash of blue light appeared, before some long tentacles reached out and began strangling Decepticon Lazerbeak. The tentacles then tossed the red condor as far as they could, sending the metal bird screeching into the darkness. A pair of tentacles reached down and wrapped around Bumblebee and pulled him up. He saw that the tentacles belonged to a rather attractive femme seeker.
The metal dragon was with her as it jumped across the crack in the earth's crust, picked up Spike, then jumped back to the seeker. Buzzsaw flapped across the crack, then landed in the seeker's arms, cooing "Mama, mama." The seeker smiled at the little bird as she stroked its head, then looked back at Bumblebee and Spike and asked "Have you seen a bird like this one, only that it is pink and red with two pigtails?" "Yes, yes we have. We have seen the little red and pink bird before" said Spike. "Where?" asked the femme.
Before Spike could answer, Bluestreak, Hound, and Windcharger came by, firing at the femmes. The seeker femme looked at Spike and said "This isn't the last time that we will see each other" before the dragon teleported the trio away. Spike and Bumblebee stood there in shock as Windcharger said "Optimus Prime sent us to find Bumblebee when we lost contact with him." "And it looks as if our timing was perfect. Those Decepticons could have offlined you" said Bluestreak. "I don't think so" said Bumblebee "That seeker femme just saved my life." "That female also asked about Laserbeak" said Sam. This shocked the Autobots as Hound asked "Why did she ask you about Lazerbeak? I saw him getting tossed into the wind by some weird metal cables." Spike shook his head, then said "She was asking about our Laserbeak. I have a hypothesis to believe that female is Laserbeak's mother." Windcharger, Hound, and Bluestreak all looked at each other in shock. It seemed as if Laserbeak wasn't an orphan after all.
Back at base, Optimus and the others watched scenes of the Earth being destroyed for having Cybertron so close to it. "We can't just stand by and watch the destruction of this beautiful planet" said Optimus. "But how can we battle the elements?" asked Ratchet. "We can't, but I know who can" said Wheeljack. "Who?" asked Ratchet as Wheeljack pressed a button. "The Dinobots. They can take more punishment than any of us" said Wheeljack. "Perhaps its worth a try" said Optimus. "All right!" said Wheeljack as he pressed another button to activate them. "Look at the monitor. You must stop these disasters" said Optimus. "Uuugh, me Grimlock not care if whole planet falls apart. Makes no difference to me Grimlock" said Grimlock. "With you on it?" asked Wheeljack. "Hmm, haven't thought of that" sad Grimlock "Dinobots, transform" as the Dinobots transformed.
Elsewhere, Spike was sitting, thinking about his father as Laserbeak sat next to him with her head on his lap. She was thinking of her parents, and how the Autobots took her away before she could reunite with them. Optimus walked up to them and asked "What's that, Spike?" "Oh, hi. Just a wrench. It was my dad's. Why are humans working for Megatron? They're supposed to be on our side" said Spike. "It's puzzling" said Optimus "And we can't deal with human beings as we do with Decepticons." Are all Decepticons bad? Then, is my father bad? Thought Laserbeak as a tear fell from her optic. A rumbling shook the base, as Optimus, Spike, and Laserbeak headed to the control room and Optimus said "Report, Wheeljack!" "Amazing. This volcano is becoming active again" said Wheeljack. "Autobots, transform" said Optimus as the Autobots transformed into their vehicular modes and drove out of the base.
Above the volcano, Star Warrior Soundwave watched it erupt, and he saw Laserbeak down there. Laserbeak he thought as he sent a dark pulse of dark matter into the volcano. The eruption subsided, as Soundwave floated down to the ground. He looked around, and saw Laserbeak in the arms of Optimus. The Autobots noticed a Decepticon symbol on him, as they raised their arms and prepared to fire. Laserbeak squawked, as she flew out of Optimus arms and flew towards Soundwave. "Laserbeak, get back here!" shouted Optimus, but it was too late. Laserbeak was in front of the satellite as she was squawking happily at it. "Could it be…?" asked Spike as he drew up the courage to walk to the strange being.
Soundwave watched the human approach him as the Autobots held their fire, but still had their weapons locked on to the satellite. "Hello, are you Laserbeak's mother?" he asked. Soundwave had this annoyed look on his faceplates as he snarled "I'm a mech!" "He's my daddy!" chirped Laserbeak happily. The Autobots just stood there in shock. That thing was Laserbeak's sire? "I hope that the Dinobots only do half as well" said Wheeljack to himself as the other mechs approached Soundwave.
It was a very awkward introduction, since there was a Soundwave in their universe on the Decepticon's side. Soundwave sighed, then said "Call me Soundblaster then." The Autobots got him to the base, but were still cautious of him since he had the Decepticon mark on him. Later, Optimus was talking with Wheeljack, Ironhide, and Soundblaster as he said "I'm not certain, but we must not let the boy find out" as Spike Witwicky walked in. "Find out what?" asked Spike. Optimus looked down and said "Spike, we have information that Sparkplug has been taken to Cybertron." "Dad? On Cybertron?" asked Spike "Optimus Prime, let me take Skyfire. We'll get him back!" "It's too dangerous. I can't let you do that, Spike" said Optimus. Soundblaster looked down at Spike and said "If one of the Autobots can come with me, he can lead me around Cybertron to look for this 'Sparkplug' as I can protect Spike." "No way! You're a good-for-nothing 'Con who will offline the Autobot that goes with you" said Ironhide as he pointed a digit at Soundblaster. Soundblaster sighed, then said "I promise that I mean no harm. If Laserbeak trusts you Autobots, then I trust you as well." "At least Soundblaster here wants to help me save Dad. If we can find Dad, we can learn what hold Megatron has over him, and the other Earth people" said Spike. "Makes sense to me" said Wheeljack "I'll go with Spike." "Me too" said Bumblebee. "You can count me in" said Skyfire. "Please, Optimus Prime" said Spike. "Very well" he said as the Autobots cheered.
Spike, Ironhide, Wheeljack, Bumblebee, Brawn, and Trailbreaker all boarded Skyfire, then the gigantic seeker flew off into the sky with Soundblaster following after him in Nighthawk mode. They quickly made it to Cybertron, and the seeker landed and let everybody out. Soundblaster transformed back into robot mode as Spike looked around and said "Wow. It sure is different." "That's funny. To me, it's just home" said Bumblebee. "Well, at least the both of you still have home planets. My home was destroyed a long time ago" said Soundblaster. "I'm sorry to hear that, Soundblaster" said Bumblebee. The three walked around, as Bumblebee noticed a laser. "Spike, that light beam" said Bumblebee, but it was too late. Spike had already fallen into Shockwave's trap, and he slid down into Cybertron's depths. "I'm coming with ya!" called out Bumblebee as he jumped down into the hole. Brawn followed after the two, as Soundblaster scanned its depths.
"Hmm…there must be an entrance to down there" said Soundblaster. Just then, Wheeljack had received a comm link from Brawn. "Wheeljack, come in. Do you read me, Wheeljack?" asked Brawn. "This is Wheeljack, where are you?" asked Wheeljack. "We're in the Decepticon lab. We found out how the humans are being controlled" said Brawn, before the link was cut short. Wheeljack looked at the others and said "It looks like Spike and the others are in trouble." "I found the entrance!" exclaimed Soundblaster as he overrode the lock to the door. Skyfire, Trailbreaker, and Wheeljack raced after Soundblaster as the two hurried to find Spike, Bumblebee, and Brawn. Soundblaster kept on scanning the area, until he detected Bumblebee and Brawn behind a door with several Decepticons.
Skyfire blasted down the door as he stepped in and said "Can anybody join the party, or do we need an invitation" as he, Trailbreaker, Wheeljack, and Soundblaster entered the room. "You will not interfere!" shouted Shockwave as he fired his laser at them. Skyfire dodged, then returned fire, hitting Shockwave. "Am I glad to see you" said Spike as he smiled. "We figured that you might be getting lonesome" said Wheeljack as the others fought the Decepticons. "You guys move out after I do a little housecleaning here" said Skyfire as he blasted his gun at the Decepticons. "It's been too long since I last had a good battle myself" said Soundblaster as he returned fire at the Decepticons with his sonic cannon. "Roger" said Wheeljack at he transformed "Jump in Spike." "I'm right behind you" said Trailbreaker.
The Autobots drove out as Shockwave shouted "Stop them!" Primus, does he remind me of the Predacons when I fought their descendants all those millions of years ago thought Soundblaster as he blasted Shockwave. Soundwave then pressed a button as he said "Alert! Alert! Autobots escaping." Soundblaster just stared at Soundwave as he said "You really need to rescan your mode so those buttons can be in a different place." Soundwave just glared at him, before a fistfight broke out between the two. "Observation: this is coming from a Cybertronian who has his robot mode as a flower?" "I am not a flower!" shouted Soundblaster as he gave a good punch to Soundwave in the jaw. Shockwave just stared at Skyfire and said "Just how you Autobots lasted this long, I can never logically process."
A stray shot from Soundblaster opened a large hole in the wall, and Skyfire transformed and flew off. "We'll continue this fight another day" said Soundblaster as he transformed and followed Skyfire.
They soon met up with the other Autobots, and were driving when one of the sentinel machines detected movement and aimed at the Autobots. "Wheeljack, look out!" shouted Spike. The Autobots dodged the laser fire, before a few Cybertronian seekers came after the Autobots. "Uh-oh, trouble upstairs" said Wheeljack as the seekers circled around and tried to fire at them, as Skyfire flew up and said "That's my specialty." Soundblaster said nothing as he continued to follow the Autobots, before a few drones followed them. "More watchdogs on our tail, Wheeljack" said Spike as he saw the cars driving after them. "We've got to lose them! My workshop is just ahead" said Wheeljack as the Autobots drove on. "I'm on it" said Soundblaster as he ejected a few clouds of dark matter to confuse the drones.
The Autobots quickly made it to Wheeljack's lab as Wheeljack said "We've made it!" "Neat layout, Wheeljack" said Trailbreaker. They transformed, and Wheeljack got to the lock as he said "All the comforts of home, if you like living in an auto-robotic factory." Well, at least it's better than living in the Decepticon barracks. Those lower-class warriors can be so gross thought Soundblaster as he followed the Autobots inside the lab. "Wow" said Spike "I bet that you could work miracles here." "I'm going to need to, if I can figure out how the Decepticons control your dad" said Wheeljack. "I, um, found this little knick-knack at Decepticon headquarters. A computer disk with their mind-control program" said Bumblebee. Seriously, the Decepticons haven't invented flash drives yet? How far behind are the inhabitants of this planet? Come to think of it, I don't even know what year it is on Earth thought Soundblaster as Wheeljack began looking at the contents of the disk.
"Mind control, of course; A hypnotic-chip with mind-control properties. Diabolical" said Wheeljack as he looked at the data.
Much later, Wheeljack was filling in Optimus of what was going on Cybertron. "We had a run-in with Shockwave, Prime, and couldn't rescue Sparkplug. But we were able to figure out how the Decepticons controlled the Earth slaves" said Wheeljack. "That's good news" said Optimus "You have any plan to counter-act their work?" "Let's just say that we're on to something that looks like a winner" said Wheeljack. "If it works" said Brawn. "We'll field-test it when we take another crack at rescuing Sparkplug" said Wheeljack.
Back at Shockwave's lab, Spike was running around, searching for his father. It didn't take long for him to run into Shockwave. "We've been expecting you" said Shockwave. He picked up Spike and asked "Where are your Autobot friends?" "Where is my father?" shouted Spike. "Here" said Sparkplug "Tell him what he wants to know, Spike. Be one of us." "Yes, where are the Autobots?" asked Shockwave again. "Well, one of them is right here" said Soundblaster as he dropped down from the ceiling and stared at Shockwave in the faceplates. "So, where are the others?" asked Shockwave. "Right behind you, Shockwave" said Trailbreaker. "And we've brought a present" said Wheeljack. He pressed a button on it, which caused Sparkplug to return to normal. Sparkplug looked around and said "Huh? Where? What am I doing?" He then got one look at Soundblaster and shouted "And what is that thing?"
Shockwave looked at Soundblaster and said "It's a malfunction that likes to make himself look like one of your Earth flowers." "I am not a flower!" shouted Soundblaster "And, you're the one to talk! The last time I saw a chassis that big was when I was with my sparkmate!" "Well, if you really must know, I was a femme at one point, but thanks to an accident from that maniac Wheeljack, I'm a mech!" shouted Shockwave. Soundblaster had this look of horror on his faceplates and said "Ok, that's more information than I needed to know."
Suddenly, Shockwave was hit in the back by Trailbreaker, as the Autobots and humans made their escape. "Seriously, Trailbreaker, you couldn't have hit Shockwave earlier before he described to me that accident?" asked Soundblaster. "After them!" shouted Shockwave as some of his seekers ran after the Autobots. "I'll get the door" said Brawn as he ran through the door. Has this guy ever heard of security access numbers? Wondered Soundblaster as the Autobots continued their escape.
They made it outside as Skyfire flew above them, as lasers fired at them. "Skyfire, things are getting hot down here" said Wheeljack to the gigantic seeker. "Then lets cool them off" said Skyfire as he blasted at the laser gun sentries. He landed, then said "All aboard" as the Autobots got on. He then flew off into the sky, as Soundblaster followed him.
They flew for a while, until they saw the Autobots fighting the Decepticons. Skyfire flew in low to assist in the battle, as Soundblaster followed him. Soundblaster watched the battle, and saw Wheeljack use his new device to release the Earth people from their mind control. When they were far enough, Soundblaster aimed his sonic cannon at the Decepticons. Skywarp and several of the others were hurt badly from the blast. Megatron then transformed into his gun mode and aimed at both Skyfire and Soundblaster. Soundblaster screamed from being hit, as he nose-dived into the Earth. "Owwww…and I thought that I got hit enough during the Beast Wars" said Soundblaster as he transformed from his Nighthawk mode into his robot mode.
He stumbled as he tried to walk in the dense jungle before a rumbling caught his attention. Soundblaster looked up, and saw a massive tidal wave heading towards the island. Great, I crash-land, and now I have to stop a tidal wave. Seriously, is this planet such a death trap? Thought Soundblaster before he transformed back into his Nighthawk mode and flew towards the wave. He unleashed a massive wall of dark energy and sent it towards the wave. The two walls met head-on, canceling each other out.
Exhausted, Soundblaster turned around and headed back towards the island. Thundercracker was busy fighting Ironhide when he saw Soundblaster approach them. "Megatron's left without us with that thing" said Thundercracker before he transformed and fled the scene, followed by the other Decepticons. "We're coming too!" boomed Skywarp as he followed his trine member. Soundblaster landed on the beach roughly as he panted. With all the dark matter and dark energy that he was using lately, it was placing a toll on his systems.
"We've got to get Cybertron out of the Earth's orbit, or it'll create another tidal wave" said Optimus. Spike thought for a moment, and then he said "I have an idea. I know how to knock Cybertron out of its orbit." "But that's impossible. It'll take the equivalent of ten billion astro-liters of energy" said Prowl. "How can you find that much energy around here? I depleted most of mine over the last few hours" said Soundblaster. "The energon cubes on Megatron's starship!" exclaimed Optimus as he aimed at the ship (along with the rest of the Autobots.) They blasted Megatron's ship, which blew up, and sent Cybertron flying back to its original position from whence it came from. The Autobots cheered as Soundblaster was trying to figure out how such an explosion can send Cybertron flying out of its orbit.
"Aw, shucks. I was hoping to try out my boogie board on the next tidal wave" said Bumblebee. "Me too, little buddy. Me too" said Brawn as he placed a hand on Bumblebee's shoulder. Soundblaster sighed, then floated over to Bumblebee and Brawn as he extended his tentacles and said "Listen, I know that you two can't surf on normal Earth waves, but if you want, I can help you water ski."
"Whee, this is fun!" exclaimed Bumblebee as he hung on to Soundblaster's tentacle as Brawn and a few of the others were pulled on the Star Warrior's tentacles as they headed back to base. "Don't get used to it" Soundblaster said as he pulled the Autobots back home.
Author's note: To explain on why Shockwave has such a large chassis, I chose to make him part female at one point (how can you explain a mech with a chassis that large? Seriously, what were the cartoonists and toy-makers thinking when they made Shockwave a boy and give him a chassis that large?)
