"It's gaining on us" Rattrap cried
"Then run faster" Rhinox shouted
"Or at least faster than the preds" Rattrap snicked
"Shut up Rodent" Galavar shouted
"make me loser" Rattrap snapped
"Is it just me or are we being corralled?" Cheetor asked making the group all freeze and look around, as they were now inside a stone structure
"What is it?" tarantulas asked as they looked around
"It looks like the gladiatorial arenas on Cybertron" Rhinox muttered. "But why?"
"Greetings" a cold voice said as someone walked out to a balcony. The Maximals stepped back and glared at the figure
"Who is that?" Waspinator asked
"I have no clue" Rhinox frowned.
"Identify yourself!" Galavar shouted
"I am the Harbinger of the chaos bringer, the great Terrorcon hunter, wielder of the Nemesis Spark" the transformer said making Galavar go wide eyed.
'The Nemesis spark, like the one mentioned in that temple?' he though panicking
"I am Scourge" the transformer identified himself.
"It can't be" Optimus Primal aid as he got angry
"What is it Prime?" Rhinox asked
"That's the bot that killed Apelinq" Optimus Primal said
"Indeed I am" Scourge said "and now let me introduced your executioners, FUZORS!" Scourge shouted as the gates on the side opened
"Oh I'm not liking this" Airazor said.
A parade of beasts marched out, the first in was the elephant-orca hybrid, behind him was a Mandril-tiger fusion, then a iguana-dragonfly fusion, a scorpion with a Cobra's head on the end of its tail instead of a stinger, a wolf with eagle wings and claws, an alligator with a tortoise shell, a hawk with the head of a hammerhead shark and a lionfish-hornet fusion.
"More of Shockwave's madness" Rhinox growled
"Galavar, I'm suggesting a truce now" Optimus Primal said
"I agree, and it is Megatron, not Galavar" Megatron replied
"Yeah, yeah" Optimus Primal said.
"LET THE HUNT BEGIN!" Scourge declared.
"Maximals" Optimus Primal shouted "TRANSFORM AND ROAR!"
"PREDACONS TRANSFOMR AND RAMPAGE!" Megatron shouted as they transformed, only to be attacked by the lionfish-hornet
"Lord Megatron" Inferno shouted before the scorpion-cobra bit Inferno on the leg, making poison flow into him, he went down to one knee, the cobra the struck again and again
"INFERNO!" Megatron shouted as he tried to blast the scorpion attacking Inferno, only to be stung by the lionfish-hornet
"This isn't good" Rhinox grunted as the elephant-orca charged at them
"This isn't good" Chettor said as he was chased by the wolf-eagle "I hate dogs!" Cheetor said
"Don't let Steeljaw hear you" Rattrap joked before ducking "I hate these things" the shark-hawk attacked him. Rhinox fired at the other fuzors.
"This isn't getting us anywhere" Tarantulas said firing at the fuzors.
"How did he tame these things" Optimsu Primal asked as he batted the Iguana-dragonfly away before he shot at the Mandrill-tiger.
"watch your back Maximal" Megatron said as he stood back to back with Optimus Primal. A feral scream was heard as the wolf-eagle had ripped off one of Cheetor's arms and threw it aside.
"CHEETOR!" Optimus Primal shouted as another scream was head. Tarantulas' leg guns were ripped off by the alligator-tortoise
"SLAG THIS!" Rattrap shouted as he blew up the wall "THIS WAY!" he shouted.
"MOVE!" Optimus primal shouted
"Inferno stay behind and cover us" Megatron ordered as Inferno limped over to the hole in the wall and fired at the fuzors as the others got away.
"Okay, so those were fuzors" Rhinox said as he looked at Cheetor's arm.
"How could he make something like that?" Cheetor asked
"I have no clue" Optimus Primal said "what about you?" he sneered at Megatron
"There were rumours that Shockwave was working on a way to make transformers with two beast modes, similar to those of the triple-changers. But each experiment was a failure" Tarantulas informed them.
"How would you know?" Rattrap asked
"Because I was a student of Shockwave, and he's more disastrous experiments gave birth to some innovations, chief among them being your beloved Dinobots" Tarantulas chuckled
"Too bad you're armless" Rattrap shouted as he pointed his blaster at him The other cons pointed their weapons at the Maximlas
"Maximals, stand down" Optimus Primal said
"This is going to be a tough fight" Airazor said as she landed on a tree "But what is the Nemesis spark?"
"Think of it as the opposite of the Matrix of Leadership. It was created by Unicron much like the Matrix was created by Primus. It was said to have been given to the most cruellest of Unicorn's herald. Scourge the chief hunter of the Terrorcons" Optimus explained. He came to Eukaris before and was barely fought off, we lost a lot of good warriors that day including the successor of Lio Convoy: Apelinq" Optimus explained.
"So, that is what happened to Apelinq, I was curious" Megatron said
"Shut up Galavar, I have a feeling you are behind Scourge's reactivation judging from what he said" Optimus Primal growled
"Fine, when I released the other three Predacons from their confinement there was mention of a Nemesis Spark, but I didn't think it would be true" Megatron told him
"Well our injured says otherwise. Now you listen and listen good Galavar! Until off this planet and back on Earth where the rest of our forces are you and those with you are going to follow MY orders, no if and or buts!" Optimus growled. "Now have Tarantulas deal with your wounded"
"Don't tell me what to" Megatron started, only to be shut up by Optimus who snarled "Fine, Tarantulas deal with our injured"
"I'm the only one of us injured" Tarantulas complained re-installing his leg gun.
"Well done my pets," Scourge said as Inferno was dragged before him "Too bad you only brought me one" he said
"The royalty will" Inferno wheezed as energon leaked from his wounds. Scourge laughed and smirked.
"Oh I know he will, I'm counting on it. In fact you're going to help me bring him out" Scourge said
"Never" Inferno defied him. Gathering as much energon as he could in his mouth, he spat it out in Scourge's eye. Making the Terrorcon stamp on his leg and used his scythe like blade to cut off Inferno's arm, making the predacon howl in pain
"Noctorro" Scourge called making a Bat-bull Fuzor come forward "Take this to lure out the prey" he said giving it the arm, which upon accepting it flew off with it, and once it was outside the walls of the arena started to leak energon to make a trial to the arena where the ones Scourge was hunting would follow it back.
"So tell me Primal, what if I wanted to get Inferno back?" Megatron asked
"Then we plan and then try and rescue him"
"If he isn't dead" Rattrap sneered.
"Watch it rat" Terrorsaur scowled as they all pointed guns at each other. Optimus sighed and looked at Megatron, who was pointing a gun at him
"Do you mind?" Optimus asked
"Tell yours to lower their" Megatron scowled.
"Rattrap" Optimus sighed "Stand down"
"WHAT!" Rattrap exclaimed.
"Just do it" Optimus Primal said, the Maximals standing down and putting their weapons away. "Rhinox, what are the chances of Inferno being alive?" their leader quietly asked. Rhinox frowned before he looked at his leader
"There's a chance. But I'm not sure if he would still be alive by the time we get there" Rhinox replied. Cheetor sniffed the air and frowned
"What is Cat bot doing?" Waspinator asked before they heard something hit the ground hard. They all looked at the what was dropped.
"NO!" Megatron growled and fired at the Fuzor, most of them barely missing him "DAMN THAT FUZOR!" he shouted
"This way" Cheetor said as he frowned
"What pussycat?" Rattrap asked
"There's an energon trail!" Cheetor pointed out "maybe we can follow it back to arena and save Inferno"
"While those fragging Fuzors are there?" Terrosaur asked
"And not to mention Scourge, it's almost like you're asking to be offlined Cheetor" Rhinoix said
"No, we go" Megatron roared
"I hate to say it but, we have to" Optimus said
"WHAT!" they all exclaimed
"I think beating Scourge is the way back home" Optimus told them
"You are nuts!" Rattrap exclaimed "You want us to go back there for a second round, just on the off chance we'll be sent HOME!"
"I agree with the rodent" Tarantulas sad
"Come on Rattrap, how often has Optimus stared us wrong?" Cheetor asked
"Plenty of times" Rattrap snorted.
"I think I have a way to fight them off" Rhinox smirked making everyone listen.
"Royalty" Inferno weakly said as he heard the stomps of Megatron. Scourge heard his and whistled making the Fuzors alert and ready to rip the beast wars fighters apart. Out of nowhere Terrorsaur and Airazor in their beast modes swooped the Fuzors . Scourge was confused when Megatron rushed in and bit down on the Mandrill-tiger , throwing it against the wall. Rhinox charged in and impaled the bat-bull before he knocked away the Elephant whale.
"TAKE THIS!" Cheetor roared as he slashed the wolf-eagle
"Clever, using your beast modes" Scourge smirked
"Yeah it is" Optimus Primal said as he threw the Hawk-shark to Megatron, who bit down and threw it at Waspinator using his stinger as a dagger and pierce wing joint, grounding it. Rattrap and Tartnulas scurried in and tried to free Inferno
"This isn't good, he's leaking too much energon!" Tarantulas panicked
"Then we better hurry" Rattrap said only to have the Lionfish Hornet fire stingers at them
"Oh no" Tarantulas panicked before he shot a web out, grounding it. "Hurry rodent!"
"I'm hurrying, I'm hurrying" Rattrap frowned annoyed.
"How much longer?" Rhinox asked as he was holding off the Elephant-whale.
"Soon Rhinox" Rattrap said as the Elephant-whale was knocked into the hornet-lionfish
"GOT HIM!" Tarantulas said
"Let's go" Megatron said before a blast of energy exploded near him.
"This has been fun" Scourge said as he got off his throne and whistled making the Fuzor retreat into cages. "But this hunt is losing its stimulation" Scourge scowled "And that means I must quickly bring it to an end" he said as he entered the arena and deployed his scythe and plasma cannon
"Think you can take us?" Cheetor asked "Its nine against 1!"
"I like those odds" Scourge chuckled.
"Oh man, I have a bad feeling we're all going to die" Rattrap said
"For once I agree" Optimus said as a wave of orange energy flowed over them. Sensing something was wrong Optimus looked at Scourge "Optimus Primal Maximize!" he shouted only to feel pain as it felt like his body was torn apart. "I can't transform" he panted
"That was an anti-transformation wave; preventing you to transform " Scourge laughed as he picked up Rattrap and flung him into a wall, then slashed Rhinox along his back. Megatron grabbed onto Scourge's arm, only to have Scourge dislocated the lower jaw and punched him in the head making the purple dinosaur let go, followed up by a kick in the gut. Waspinator flew in at him, using his claw appendage, grabbed the wasp and slammed him into the ground before ripping the wings off him and throwing him to the side
"Oh not good" Cheetor ran around him, only to be fired at, knocking him off. Tarantulas attempted to bind Scourge with his webbing, which did nothing as it was broken easily and then had his legs pulled off slowly.
"GIVE ME A REAL CHALLENGE!" Scourge shouted before a rock was hurled into his face and he was tackled. Optimus Primal, the grabbed another rock and used it as a tool to try and blunt the scythe. Grabbing him with his claws Scourge threw him off, only to have Optimus roll back onto his feet. The gorilla Maximal then charged at Scourge, who swung his scythe at Optimise Primal, who slid under it, grabbed a third rock and threw it at the Terrocon, only to see it being sliced in half. "Finally" Scourge laughed before he punched Optimus in the face and stomped on one of his knee struts.
"ARGH!" Optimus shouted in pain as Scourge walked around them. A dark chuckle flowed out of his mouth as he watched the down transformers, all of which were locked in Beast Mode. Optimus tried to move away. "You think you can get away, then think again" Scourge laughed before he raised his scythe like armblade up and was about to end Primal's life when a bright green light shone over them. 'What is this? Scourge asked confused as the beast transformers were lifted up by the same light, forming a ring, and in the middle of the ring stood a large blue Cybertronian like figure.
"No!" Scourge panicked as he stepped back afraid. "It can't be!" he shouted.
"Maximals, Predacons. You fought valiantly, and now I, Primus shall reward you with a new power. Strong enough to fight the darkness of Unicorn" the figure said.
"Unicron, Primus?" Optimus Primal asked before he felt energy flow through him 'Is this the power of the Matrix?' Optimus asked as a wave of energy turned his entire body into metal, he felt stronger. He landed on the ground and took in his new visage which was his body and head was metallic blue, and his arms and legs silver. "Incredible" he said before the rest of his Maximals landed, which one had the same new metal look as Optimus.
"Jumping Gyros" Cheetor said now having a metallic silver, blue and gold body "What is this?"
"I'm not sure spots, but I like it" a now brown, silver and pink Rattrap said
"I think we need to get to the lab" Rhinox said being silver and aqua. Airazor landed showing her white and lavender look. Scourge was now worried as he took a step back
"Oh my, I like this" Megatron said as he walked out now bronze and purple. Waspinator was dark green and red, Terrorsaur was now purple and tarantulas was navy and pink.
"So a new colour scheme is not going to help you again me" Scourge sneered.
"Then why are you scared?" Optimus Primal asked as he took a step forward.
"Yeah" Rattrap asked before he looked behind him to see the Mandril-Tiger fuzor looking at him. Rattrap gulped before he felt something different as his feet curled up and became wheels. "Um?" he asked before he sped away at the fuzor, driving under it; making the Fuzor look confused before he looked under it, only to have its head under by Rattrap's tail.
"You don't think" Rhinox said before he focus and had tracks appear and drive off.
"Vehicle modes?" Megatron asked as he activated his flight mode and lifted into the air
"I think I can do that" Waspinator snidely said as he shifted to wasp more before coming a jet
"What are we going to turn into?" Airazor asked
"I don't know" Terrorsaur shrugged before Scourge fired at them, Roaring Optimus lunged at Scourge, before he shifted to look like a hoverboard was coming from his legs.
"Not bad" he smirked as he grabbed Scourge by the face and slammed him into the ground and flew along, dragging the hunter through the floor of his arena. Then he flew up into the air,
"No, no how?" Scourge asked before Optimus landed and transformed into his new robot form, his snarl was fierce before he grabbed Scourge's mask.
"Give me your face" he shouted ripping off the mask.
"Move Primal!" Megatron ordered before he pulled out his beast mode's tail and charged it up
"YOU WILL NOT STOP ME!" Scourge declared.
"Think again" Optimus Primal declared as his backpack flipped forward as the handles of his maces extended into barrels "Everyone Transform!"
"YOU GOT IT!" they shouted as they switched to robot mode, and brought out their weapons.
"On our mark" Megatron shouted as they all aimed
"FIRE!" they shouted unleashed a massive barrage at the hunter, who took the full brunt of it before he crashed to one knee.
"No, I will not be beaten" her growled.
"Oh you will, and you will not beat us ever again, and we won't stop not TILL ALL ARE ONE!" Optimus Primal shouted as green energy built up around his fist, once it was overflowing with power. "So long Scourge" Optimsu shouted as he shoved his fist through the body of Scourge, making him go offline.
"Impressive Primal, very impressive" Megatron said before all Predacon guns were aimed at the new Maximals "But now there is just one more thing to do, your destruction" Megatron said before he was smashed in the face by one of Optimus Primal's maces.
"Think again, you metallic fossil" Optimus Primal shouted
"Lord Megatron" Terrorsaur said as he turned his wings into a boomerang and was about to throw it at Cheetor when Rhinox's horn became a knife and was swung at the Predacon
"Die Maximal!" Tarantulas, using his buzzsaw Rattrap used his whip to pull Tarantulas' feet out from under him.
"Over here bug boy" Airazor called out, slashing at Waspinator.
"This is not good Megatron" Tarantulas said
"No, they are just as powerful as us" Megatron growled before a bright light washed over all of them.
"Here we go again" Optimus Primal said.
"IZUKU!" Kendo shouted as she raced over to him, tackling him in a big hug. "you jerk, I though you weren't going to come back!" she cried
"I'm okay Itsuka, I really am" Izuku said
"HEY DEKU!" Bakugo shouted "GET BACK OVER HERE AND HELP US!" he shouted
"I'm Coming" He said
"What's happening?" Kendo asked
"I'm sorry but we got to help unload our mothers" he smiled as he ran over as Kirishima and Shoji were helping Mrs Koda down. The quiet boy running over and hugging her, knowing she was safe
"Oh hang on, 1-B over here! Kendo shouted as he class mates were running over and helping their mothers down, upon which they all dragged their children into hugs.
"I'm glad you're okay mum" Izuku said before the big rig detached from his trailed
"is that?" Kendo asked as the truck had transformed into Optimus Prime
"This is wher you wanted to be dropped off?" Optimus Prime asked
"It is" Izuku smiled
"Thank you very much" Inko bowed.
"It is my pleasure" Optimus Prime smiled before a V-10 Osprey touched down, and out of it was a team of Sector Seven soldiers,
"INKO!" Hisashi shouted
"Oh Hisashi" Inko hugged her husband
"REI!" Endeavour shouted as he rushed over to her, panicky in his voice as he got to her
"Enji" Rei gasped, before he embraced her shocking everyone as the rest of the husbands appeared.
"Where are the other Maixmals?" Hiashsai asked
"We're" Izuku started when suddenly the white light appeared, out of which the five new powered up Maximals walked out "No way, what happened to you?"
"Let's just say it was an adventure." Rattrap said.
Later on at the Maximal's base Optimus Primal looked out at the sunset lit forest, a frown on his face
"Are you alright?" Optimus Prime asked
"I'm just trying to make sense of these new 'Transmetal' form that Primus gave us" Optimus Primal frowned
"I see, it is good to see you again" Optimus Prime nodded
"Indeed, I never thought this world would see another war of Transformers" Optimus Primal sighed
"As long as there are those like Megatron and Galavar then any wars we face will be fought over the galaxy" Optimus Prime said
"I'm just worried about what is going to happen next" Optimus Primal said
"I as well" Optimus said.
G'day Guys Grizz here, and man was a jam packed chapter that was with Fuzors and Transmetals arriving setting the scene for Season 2 next years some time. Now I knew I wanted to do them, but I couldn't quite fit them in until I figured why not use them in the finales, which lead to the thought of hey if I'm doing Fuzors why don't I bring in the Transmetals which was one of the coolest things in Beast Wars. Then came a new problem who was going to be the big bad of the final chapter...hm...that was tricky.
See I had intended to use the episode of Transformers Armada where they got the power ups and that meant Nemesis Prime, but that would be an out right copy, so what then...Oh I got the idea: Scourge from Rise of the Beasts. He just fit, he was a hunter meaning he would use the Fuzors as pets to hunt the Maximals and Predacons, he was a dark reflection of Optimus Prime and he was just right!
Now the Fuzors used in this chapters were: Torca the elephant-orca, Bantor Mandril-tiger fusion, Sky-Shadow a iguana-dragonfly fusion, Quickstrike the scorpion with a Cobra's head on the end of its tail instead of a stinger, Silverbolt a wolf with eagle wings and claws, Terrorgator the alligator with a tortoise shell, Air Hammer the hawk with the head of a hammerhead shark and Injector the lionfish-hornet fusion. Now then what's next
Meanwhile somewhere deep in the Amazon rainforest, a pod dropped from the sky, the window of it was cracked and over top the entire thing was a large red 'X' painted over top. The pod slowly opened up as the storm started to increase in ferocity. The protoform held inside the pod broke out and looked around, its green eyes taking in the location
"Beautiful, remind me of home" he said before the pod shot him with a beam, turning him into a massive purple chrome crab. "Interesting" he said as he looked in the surface of the pod, seeing his reflection, bringing a name to mind. "They will regret the day they imprisoned me and stripped me of my name, so until I remember it I shall take up the designation they gave me" he said "Maximal X!" he shouted as lightning cracked over head.
Oh that is going to be fun to bring in the beast Wars version of Rampage, which means Depth Charge as well. So look forward to that! Now then I would like to thank Mrotrax, Sakumon16, Gamerlover41592 and AnimeMasterDub for reviewing, thanks to those who followed and favourited this fic, and thank you to those who just read it now and in the future.
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside.
