Cybertron, a planet full of robotic beings called Cybertronians or as some like to call them Transformers. There planet was torn apart by a war between two factions. Autobots and Decpticons, these were the two fighting factions. The two leaders of the faction were named Optimus prime and Megatron. Optimus fought for freedom and to save there planet, while Megatron sought out to control the planet and to bring order by tyranny. Because of the war, there planet was dying and the one thing that could save there planet was sent off world during the war. The troops in each faction weren't all prepared for this war and some weren't even warriors before the war, well, most of them. But the war on cybertron wasn't always a thing, there was once a time when things were peaceful...for the most part. A time when there was very little fighting through the planet...except within kaons gladiatorial arena.
Cybertron, somewhere close to Kaons arena before the war
Cybertronians were walking through the streets while some had taken to the sky's and the rest on wheels. But a large majority of them all were heading towards kaons gladiatorial arena because today was gonna be a grand match. Two mighty and powerful gladiators were gonna fight today and only one would be victorious. It was barbaric but it was still loved by many, though some ended up being dragged to it, one of them in particular was a pink femme who appeared to be dragged by a light blue/teal femme." Come on Arcee! It will be fun!" Said the light blue femme who was basically dragging her friend with her to the arena.
Arcee sighs a bit. She was just a teacher and didn't normally go to places like this to see bots fighting. She looked at her friend moonracer." Moonracer, I don't normally go to koan to watch some bots fight, what makes you think I'll enjoy it when being dragged here?" She asked.

Moonracer smiles a bit as she puts an arm around her friend." Because this is gonna be the match before the match of cybertrons top two gladiators." She said a bit excited. She was into stuff like this.
She rolled her eyes a bit while smiling a tad as she walked with her friend towards the large arena." Okay that does sound interesting, but who's fighting tonight?" She asked as they both make it into the arena and make there way to there seats.
Moonracer had thought about telling her but on the other hand, she could just let her found out on her own. She eventually decided to smile a bit as she looked at her." Wait and see." She said as she seats down in her seat.
She chuckled a bit as she sits down." Alright fine, don't tell me." She said as she then turns her attention down at the center of the arena. The whole arena was full of excitement, no one could wait from the match to begin.
Two large gates open and two large gladiators come out of them. As the two came out, an announcer spoke so she can give the names of the fighters." Today will be a grand match! Two fighters who both have a total of 98 victories will be fighting today and the winner will move onto the final round which will commence after one Deca-cycle." The crowds cheer loudly upon hearing this. They all were excited and couldn't wait for the fighting to start.
"At one end of the arena, we have the beast with claws that can tear anyone apart, Scorpinok!" At the mention of his name, he smirked and waved at the crowds who cheered at him, full of confidence. He and his opponent have fought many times outside of the arena, though it all ended in ties because someone would ruin it and they'd be forced to stop, well not this time since there in a gladiatorial arena.

"And at the other end we have the king of savageness and anger, Grimlock!" The crowds cheered louder than they did for Scorpinok and that made him pissed and jealous.
Grimlock hardly reacted to this and only cared about scraping his opponent permanently since he has been waiting for a chance like this for awhile now, and he wants all of cybertron to know who is the strongest." Let's get this over with." He said.
/Grimlock-Idw Autocracy trilogy appearance
Moonracer smiles a bit as she looked down at the warriors from her seat." Look at them. There so big, right Arcee?...Arcee?" Her friend didn't say a word, so she had to look over at her and see why she hadn't said a word, though when she did look at her, she was very surprised.
Arcee stared at grimlock, not saying a word as she watched him charged at Scorpinok. She had a smile on her face as she watched him. She must admit, he looks rather handsome and there's just something to him that is attracting her. As she kept watching the intense match, She suddenly felt someone tap her shoulder and saw that it was moonracer who had a grin on her face." What?" She asked.
"Arcee, do you like that big strong gladiator?" She asked with a mischievous grin, trying to embarrass her friend a bit.
Moonracer was successful of course as this caused her to be a blushing mess...somehow." N-No! Shut up!" She said as she then looked away from her friend, not wanting to admit to anything or give her the satisfaction of being right.
Moonracer chuckled a bit and then had an idea." Oh my primus! Grimlocks losing!" She said as she pointed down at the arena where the two fighters are fighting.
Arcee quickly looked over, hoping what her friend had said was from and thankfully she was. Grimlock had managed to send Scorpinok flying into a wall. She looks back at her friend and saw her smiling and this makes her sigh a bit." Let's just watch the match." She said, wanting to change the subject.
Back to the match, Scorpinok was pissed. He was losing this match and he hated losing. He yelled as he charges at Grimlock, going to ram right into him to ram him into a wall. That is his plan anyway. As he got closer he saw that Grimlock was holding his ground and thought the savage brute full of rage was frozen with fear. This makes him smirk and cocky as he kept going and is about to ram right into him." What's wrong grimlock? Scared your fighting someone stronger than you?" He was close to ramming into Grimlock, but this was exactly what Grimlock had wanted.
Grimlock tanks the hit, keeping his ground and his feet in the ground. He then grabs Scorpinoks arm and then flips him over his shoulder and into the ground hard. Grimlock then steps on his chest hard, holding him down as he gripped Scorpinoks arm. He then tore it right off, tossing it to the side like it was nothing. Scorpinoks painfully scream's could be heard as Grimlock then tore the other arm right off. A lot of the crowds cheer at this and kept going as Grimlock lifted up Scopinok with one arm and looked at the crowd." NO ONES STRONGER THAN GRIMLOCK!" He shouted. That made the whole stadium go crazy and cheer for his victory. He then drops Scorpinok and ignored the groans that came from him.
Someone was cheering a lot more than some and that was Arcee, though the match was a bit gruesome, everyone stilled enjoyed it. Moonracer noticed her friend's excitement and decided to tease her a bit." Bet you wish you could congratulate the big bot in person?" She said in a teasing tone.
"I uh...um." She was at a lost for words. She wouldn't mind meeting the big bot and congratulating him on his victory, but she didn't want to admit it, thankfully someone next to her spoke up, but what they had to say wasn't so good.
It was a mech and he scoffed a bit." Please, why would you wanna go and meet with a savage like him when you could meet a bot like me. If fact, why don't we head back to my place right now?~" He asked as he got uncomfortable close to her.
/Douchebag mech-Foc npc
She tried to push him away but he refused to." No! I'm not going anywhere with you creep!" She said as she was gets up and was about to leave, but then the mech grabs her arm tightly.
"Your not going anywhere!~" he said with a grin as he tried to pull her close to himself.
Moonracer got up and was about to punch the bot away from her friend, but she stops when she saw a large figure out of the corner of her optics. She gasped a bit when she saw who it was.
The mech grins a bit but then noticed a large shadow was covering him and the pink femme. He slowly turns and then was immediately grabbed by the throat and lifted high up. He felt his neck started to get crushed. He was full of fear and terror when he saw who it was.
Arcee was relieved someone stepped in and stopped that bot. She looked to see who it was who had helped her and gasped a bit. It was Grimlock and he looks mad.
Grimlock had saw what that mech was doing just as he was about to head back through the doors. He wasn't gonna let something like this slide. He slowly looked down at Arcee. He assumes she's to scared of him to talk so he doesn't say anything yet, he's used to it. He turns his attention back to the bot he has by the throat. He brought the bot in close as he growls a bit" Leave. Now." He said as he then throws him down into the arena hard, the bot appeared to not be moving for awhile till a groan was heard from him. Looks like he was very lucky to be alive...unfortunately.
The surrounding area that saw this clapped, cheered, and laughed a bit. The arena was starting to clear out since the match was over and there will be no more today.Grimlock could care less for there cheers. He turned his attention back to Arcee who was staring at him." Next time, fight back." he said as he was about to leave, but then he heard her spoke up.
"I-I don't know how, I'm just a teacher." She finally spoke to him for the first time he's been right in front of her. She was a bit nervous to talk to him but when she realized that this might be the only moment she'd probably get to see him in person, she knew she had to speak up.
Grimlock turns back to her and stares at her for awhile. He was silent for awhile and it was intimidating. But when he spoke up, what he said would be surprising." We will train. Meet me at Maccadams." He said as he left.
Once he was gone, moonracer puts a hand on Arcees shoulder with a smile." Looks like you just got a date." She teased with a smile. But she noticed Arcee didn't say a word, so she looked at her friends face and saw her smiling a bit. She laughed a bit." A bit Awestruck? Does that mean you think he's gonna be your conjunx endura?" She asked.
Hearing that immediately snapped Arcee out." What?! No! We haven't been on a date, besides, he just gonna be showing me how to defend myself and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't like a femme like me." She said as she and moonracer left the arena.
While they talked, down in the waiting room where most of the gladiators would be at to prepare for a match, they were all talking about what had happened. The most angriest bot here helped out someone and from what they all heard, he's gonna be training a femme. But they all got quite the moment Grimlock came walking through, heading towards the exit.Once he left he would head off to macadams to meet up with Arcee.
Later at Macadams bar
Macadams was a favorite spot on cybertron where most Cybertronians went to relax and have a drink. The owner of the place Macadams was a kind sparked fellow who took care of the bar and the customers who came in. But there was one rule in the bar...No fighting. No one has broken that rule though some would wonder what would happened if someone had broken that rule, but those thoughts wouldn't last since all the stories about Mac. And because of a certain bot that comes around sometimes and is not to be messed with.
/Macadam- Cyberverse mixed with idw
Speaking Macadams, he was currently cleaning a mug while listening to cybertrons most talkative Cybertronian to ever exist...other than cybertrons most fastest cybertronian of course. The bot was a a bit shorter than most bots, had a white and red color scheme going on." Oh come on Mac! You gotta give me some tips on opening a bar. I know it wouldn't be as good as yours but maybe it can be close with a little bit of your help? Come on, what do you say?" Asked the bot as he was sitting in a chair by the bar, looking at Macadam.
Mac simply laughed a bit as he puts down the glass next to a much larger glass he had already finished." You don't need my help swerve. You already run your own bar nicely on the los-oops, almost gave it away." He said, having stopped himself.
Swerve just tilted his head a bit, confused by what he had just said, but then shrugs it off and goes back to drinking. He noticed the two glass Mac had cleaned and started to fill up." Did someone order some drinks while I wasn't looking? Oh wait, did someone send you a secret message? Or maybe you read someone's mind here?" He kept talking and talking, thankfully though, he stops talking when he heard the doors open.
He and almost everyone else looked over and saw that it was a pink femme. This place doesn't get many femmes but there are a decent amount from time to time. Arcee looked around a bit as she walked over to the bar table where swerve and Mac were. Before she could say anything, Mac placed down a regular mug." On the house Arcee." Said Mac with a smile as he grabs a new mug to clean
Arcee was greatly confused for a few reasons. One, why was this bot giving her a free drink, and two, how did he know her name." Wait, how did yo-"
"Oh that's just the way Mac is. He knows anyones name the moment they walk into this place. It's like some sort of super power of his or something. Or maybe he can see the future, if so then that make some rumors about him true. Then ag-" That would have gone on for awhile if it weren't for the doors opening rather loudly. This caused everyone to look and saw that it was the big bot of anger himself, Grimlock. He had to duck under the door a bit to fit since he was taller than the door.
The whole bar was silent as Grimlock walked over to where Arcee,Mac, and swerve were. Macadams smiles a bit as he hands Grimlock the large glass." Right on time my friend."He said with a smile.
Grimlock just stares at him and then lifts his drink to his face and then his mouth plate folded down and then started to drink the Energon. Once he puts down the mug, he looks at Mac." Thanks." He said.
Macadams smiles and nods." Of course. Oh and the backs ready for Arcees training. I'd recommend going easy on her before pushing her limits." He said as he pushes a button under his bar counter and then a door close to the bar opens.
Grimlock headed over to the door while Arcee slowly followed him from behind, but before that, she turned and looks at Macadam." Thank you." She said with a small smile as she then went back to following Grimlock.
Mac smiles a bit as he then watched the door close." Those two are made for each and are in my top three ships." He said casually as he then went back to cleaning while Swerve was just so confused at what the bot was saying, but chooses to ignore it and drown himself in some good grade Energon.
In the back room...
Grimlock lead Arcee to another door and then taps a few buttons and then walks in once the door had open. She of course followed him and was amazed by what she had seen. The room was very large and it had weapons, training dummy's, and some crates full of Energon." Woah, what is this place?" She asked.
Grimlock growls a bit as he sets up a few dummies." Training room." He said as he then looks at her, crossing his arms a bit.
Arcee looked at the dummy and then back at Grimlock." When does my training begin?" She asked as she then looked back at the dummy's.
"Now." He said. This was the first day of many days that Arcee would receive training from the big bot while he himself trained a bit as well. Over time they would hang out more and more, getting to know one and other. Many people have saw this and talked about it and spreader rumors. Most were sweet and harmless but others were very terrible and really pissed of Grimlock who had found out about the rumors, as did Arcee but she didn't care. They would continue to hang out and train together. As time went on, there relationship changed a bit and the two had grown quite close to each other which had shocked everyone. Well, almost everyone. But they weren't in a romantic relationship...not yet anyway.
Kaon- The Final match...
Today was the day that the final match to decide who will be Kaons new gladiator champion. The original one had left for reasons the public doesn't know about and no one knows about his current whereabouts. Getting ready for his match, Grimlock was thinking of what he would do once he won, he doesn't think he will win, he knows that he will win.He would probably continue to keep on fighting gladiators his whole life, but as he thought about this, Arcee came to mind and with that some words he wanted to tell her. He quickly shakes his head, growling to himself as he did this. He can't focus on that right now, but as he was about to focus on something else, Arcee walked in with a smile on her face." Hey there Grim." She said with a smile.
Grimlock looked at her as he got up." Arcee, what are you doing here?" He asked as he walked over to her, looking down at her, wondering why she was here and how it was odd timing she was here just as he was thinking about her.
Arcee looked a bit nervous for some reason, as if she wanted to say something." W-Well I wanted to wish you luck and to tell you something important." She said as she rubs her arm a bit,
Grimlock was about to say that now is not a good time, but then a lingering thought crept into his mind. Perhaps now was the moment he tells her." Arcee, there's something I need to tell you as well." He said.
Arcee hopes it is what she thinks it is. She stares up at him, reaching towards his hand and holds it." What is it Grim?"
He held her hand gently as he looks her in the optics as his battle mask folded down." Arcee, for some time now. I have...had this feeling in my spark I'd never experienced or thought I would. But that changed because of you." With each word he spoke, there faces got closer and closer, there metal lips almost meeting.
"Same here. Ever since I met you, my life has changed and I became more happy, because of you." She said as she was close to kissing him. She stops holding his hand and reaches her arms around his neck and holds onto him.
There metal lips were inches from touching."Arcee, I...I love you." There lips touched and it was incredibly for both of them. Finally, the two are together, they are finally conjunx endura. The moment felt like it could last forever, but it couldn't sadly. A alarm went off, indicating that it was time for the gladiators to get ready to fight.
Grimlock growls in anger as he pulled away from Arcee and his battle mask folds up." Of course." He said. He wishes he had more time but he knew if he wanted to be the champion then he would have to get going.
Arcee giggles a bit." Go and fight. After that we can talk more and head to Mac's." She said as she left to go and find her seat so she can witness the match.
Grimlock headed off to the gates and awaits for them to open. Once they do, he heads out into the arena and the crowds cheer.
The announcer smiles as she stares down at the arena." Today is gonna be a grand match folks! Whoever wins this will become the Champion of the gladiatorial arena of kaon! At one end of the arena, we have the king of savageness and anger, Grimlock!"
The crowds cheered loudly for the gladiator, but there cheers meant nothing to him, well, except a few, one of them is Arcee of course. He stares at his opponent, Grimlock knew that he would end up fighting...him.
Grimlocks opponent was a tall looking bot and everyone about him was screaming psycho. From his creepy and eerie appearance to his creepy lips." And at the other end, we have the psycho bot of pain and torture...Overlord!" She shouted.
/ Overlord-Idw
Most of the crowds cheer for overlord while a very large amount doesn't. This doesn't affect him at all, in fact it makes him grin. The reason he was doing this was because he was thinking of all the many ways he could kill these insignificant weak fools. But before he even attempt these thoughts, he must become kaons champion and get revenge on a particular bot who has bested him Time and time again in the past, but first he must kill grimlock. And to that he had to get in his head first." Ah Grimlock, I have heard much about you and your rage." He said with a smirk as he pulled out a hammer.
Grimlock growls as he stomps towards at him, picking up more speed." You ain't heard nothing yet!" Grimlock yelled as he charges at him, full speed with his sword out. Both warriors slam there weapons against the others, the moment there weapons hit each other, a shockwave was created and it sent them both back a bit, but both weapons were destroyed because of this.
This makes Overlord laugh as he drops the handle of the now broken hammer." No more weapons, just our fis-" Grimlock slammed his fist into overlords face and started to repeatable punch him.
"You talk to much!" He yelled as he kept on wailing a series of punches on overlord, but then after a few more hits, Overlord caught the fist and smirked a bit as he wipes the Energon leaking from his lips, though more came gushing out after he did that but he ignores it.
Overlord knees Grimlock in the stomach and the forced Grimlock onto his knee, holding his stomach. Using this opportunity, Overlord kicked Grimlock right in the face, knocking him down.
Grimlocks face is a bit damaged, he growls as he started to get back up, only for Overlord to step on Grimlocks chest, keeping him down as overlord started to punch him, laughing as he does this.
Grimlock was struggling to move, he was slowly losing consciousness with each hit. Was this the end for him...no it was not. As he was getting beaten, he saw someone in the stands, it was Arcee. The only Cybertronian he ever loved. Seeing her screaming out to him, worrying for him, was pushing him to get him and tear overlord apart.
Overlord stares down at him." Looks like I'm the strongest Grimlock." He said in a mocking tone. Overlord then brings down his fist again, but grimlock had caught it and crushed Overlords fist.
Overlord steps off grimlock, holding his arm in pain, he has just made a bit mistake. Grimlock gets up and yelled as he kicked him down and slams his foot down onto him, breaking and damaging Overlords chest badly. Grimlock then yelled as he grabs both of Overlords arm and yanked them right off, Causing the now armless bot to scream in pain. The loss of much Energon forced him into a stasis like state.
Grimlock drops the arms and then gets his foot off him, just to kick him away a bit, he then looks at the crowd, mainly at Arcee." NO ONES STRONGER THAN GRIMLOCK!!" He yelled and the whole stadium cheers loudly.
Arcee was had her hands on her mouth, smiling a bit while crying a bit, she is so happy Grimlock won and is alive. She immediately jumps down to the arena, ignoring everything as she runs up to him and hugs him tightly." You did it! I knew you could!" She said
Grimlock says no words as he hugs her back." Thank you for believing in me." He said as he held her close. He was damaged quite a bit, but nothing a few repairs can't fix. He then picks her up and holds her in his arms as he walks away as the crowds kept cheering.
"And there we have it folks! Kaons new Champion!" The announcer spoke loudly. In that one moment, everything was great and perfect...but these moments can't last forever sadly.
A couple stellar cycles later...
Many structures and buildings were destroyed and on fire, many bodies were lying around, many of the bodies had a red logo on there bodies somewhere, these were the Autobots, while the rest had a purple logo, these were the Decepticons. The war has begun on the planet.
Currently Driving out of kaon was a few survivors and neutrals. In the lead of them all was Arcee and Grimlock, both neutrals as well. As they were leading survivors out, some Con flyers spotted them and opened fire from above.
"We got incoming fire Grim! Everyone, full throttle! Shouted Arcee as she speeds up along with the survivors.
Grimlock didn't and instead transformed and skids against the road as he grabs a piece of rubble and uses as a shield to block the attacks. Once he does this, He growls in anger as he then spotted a bunch of ground troops coming towards him. Arcee had transformed and walked over to him as she saw this." We got a lot more coming! Arcee, go with the others and get them somewhere safe. I will keep them from going after you all." He said as he doesn't look at her.
Arcee couldn't believe what she was hearing." What?! No! I'm not leaving you behind!" She said as she pulled out a gun, about to shoot at the cons but Grimlock stops her. He holds her hand as he stares down at her.
"I can buy you all time, but I can't do that if your here. I don't wanna risk you getting hurt, I don't want to lose you. So please...Go." He said as he stares into her optics as his battle mask folds down.
Arcee stares at him, knowing he's right. She leaps up and holds onto his neck tightly. She then kisses him deeply as he holds onto her. She soon pulled away." Promise me you will come back to me."
He nods a bit." I will do whatever it takes to get back to you Arcee. I promise." He said as he puts her down gently and then his battle mask folds back up.
She nods and then transforms and drives off, leaving her conjunx endura behind...
Grimlock watches her leave and then once she was out of sight, he turns around and sees the Ground troops charging at him. He growls a bit as he then yelled and charges at them, no hesitation or fear. Before any killing could be done, a voice spoke up." Stop!" Spoke a mighty voice. The Decepticons stop moving immediately, and make way for...Him.
Grimlock had also stopped, wanting to know who said that. The moment the cons moved out of the way, he had a feeling he knew who it was and grimlock was right, it was who he thought it was." Megatron."
((Megatron-Foc mixed with Idw
It was indeed Lord megatron, leader of the Decepticons and the old gladiator champion. He had left before grimlock had a chance at fighting him for his title. Megatron stares at him, as if searching for something." I see you haven't been poisoned by the Autobots words yet. Good." He said as he walked over to him and puts a hand on his shoulder.
Grimlock just stares at him for a bit, looking down a bit as he then growls a bit." What do you want Megatron?" He asked as he waits for him to answer so he can ether fight him, kill him, or leave.
Megatron moved his hand away and started to walk towards his troops, his back faced to Grimlock." I want you to fight for me. This war will soon be over after I change you into cybertrons most deadly weapon. What do you say?" He asked, awaiting his answer.
Grimlock growls a bit as he pulled out his sword." I will never help you megatron!" He yelled as he goes to attack him, but then, he is shocked so much some how and ends up falling to the ground. He groans a bit as he was barely conscious as he looks around a bit and saw a device on his shoulder where Megs had put his hand on.
"I wasn't going to take no for an answer...take him to shockwave and tell him he will have the perfect candidate for project beast." Said Megatron as he walked away, but before he did that he activated the device again to zap Grimlock.
The last thought on Grimlocks mind was that he might never see Arcee again, but it was then replaced with a new thought, his promise to her. He made her a promise and he will fight for no matter how long it takes to get back to her. That was his final thought before falling into stasis and being dragged off by the Cons.
/I'm basically doing my own version of the transformers timeline and because of that I can put in whatever characters I want at any time lol.
