Transformers Animated - Dark Horizons

I will start this fan-fic tomorrow, I have a main story line and a few synopses but I won't post 'em here. It'll ruin it.
The Story takes place after the events of A Bridge Too Close, it alters slightly from the happy-go-lucky ways of Animated and is more dark and evil.

If you want to kill me, despise me, hate me, and live in an unsightly way…Run, and cling to life, and then some day, when you have the same eyes as I do, come before me.

Transformers Nemesis Series: Episode 1 - Enlist Now
On Cybertron:
Megatron stands high on a perch giving a speech to his army of warriors.
Megatron: My warriors, we have conquered the North East of Cybertron, The Autobot insects will be crushed underneath my foot, prepare for war!
In the crowd three hooded Transformers clutch their cloaks close to them as if to conceal there identities. A Jet flys overhead and stops behind Megatron, transforming he walks forward and looks at Megatron, This guy is huge. Megatron only reaches his knee.
Megatron: This is the future - Transformers created for the soul purpose of War, Thanks to our deceased friend Starscream we know have the power to clone our own army, You may recognise this Transformer as the valiant warrior Jetfire but he is infact his clone, Yes my warriors we have captured the Autobots warrior and clones him into Jetstorm
and his ARMADA!
About 50 jets rise from behind Megatron and Jetstorm Transforms and joins them.
Megatron: Now go forth my Army and conquer Cybertron!
The Armada fly forward and Megatron's Army run forth, Down in the crowd the three hooded transformers stay there and quickly throw off their cloaks, Megatron stands tall on his perch but stumbles as he is hit by three large beams of energy. The Warriors then walk forward and their identity's are revealed, They are the Autobot bounty hunters Arcee, Hot Rod and Springer
Megatron: How dare you come here!
Hot Rod: You promised us money Megatron but Magnus pays better than you
Arcee: Sorry Honey but we're gunna kill you
Megatron walks towards the edge of his perch and laughs
Megatron: Poor little warriors, so valiant in battle yet so cowardly in open combat, Elites - Attack!
3 Transformers spring from behind Megatron and land in front of Hot Rod, Arcee and Springer, The group is comprised of the Bounty Hunters Doubledealer, Runabout and Runamuck.
Doubledealer: Give up Hot Rod, ya can't win
Hot Rod: Look, DD [DoubleD] we're on the same ship here, you work for Megatron and so do w....
Hot Rods sentence is cut short as an arrow enters his chest, he falls back and Arcee catches him.
Arcee: Why the hell did you do that *she looks down at Hot Rod* Why do this?
Doubledealer: Shut up, Bitch *Doubledealer fires a shot at Arcee and hits her directly in the head.
Springer transforms into a Tank and fires a blast at the three Elites, they easily move out of the way but when the dust settles Springer, Hot Rod and Arcee are gone
Doubledealer: Where the hell did they go?
Runamuck: look, up there! *Runamuck points into the sky*
High in the sky Springer is flying away with Hot Rod and Arcee in his cargo hold, Springer has transformed into a Cybertronian hovercraft and has flown off into the Autobot zone.

Just a little teaser for anyone interested

Autobot HQ:
Springer's shadow shimmers over the baron landscape of Cybertron, He grows closer to Autobot HQ and as he does he starts to slowly transform, he lands in the HQ with Hot Rod and Arcee in his hands, A group of Autobots standing in the airlock take a look at Springer, they all run over to help, Arcee is taken away and Hot Rod is hooked up to a case and then he is also taken away. Some time later Springer sits in a de-briefing room, Prowl enters and sits down across the table from Springer, he puts his arms on the table and leans forward.
Prowl: Care to tell me what happened?
Springer: Look, Prowl. I don't wanna talk about it, O.K?
Prowl stands up and walks over to the window behind Springer, he glances over Cybertron
Prowl: It's not alright Springer, you believe that you are invincible, so if you are? Why are Hot Rod and Arcee on the slag heap?
Springer stands up and grabs Prowl by the neck, Prowl smirks
Prowl: That will do nothing for you, Springer you must tell us what has happened.
Springer releases Prowl and jumps out of the window, He transforms into a cybertronian hover craft and flys off into the horizon. Prowl looks down at his communicator and activates it, A 3D hologram of Sentinel Prime's head comes up.
Sentinel Prime: So, did he say what happened?
Prowl: No, he ran off
Sentinel Prime: and you let him? Maybe re-enlisting you in the elite guard was a mistake.
Prowl: Sorry sir, It wont happen again
Sentinel Prime: It better not, Soldier
Prowl closes the com and rips it off his wrist, launching it out of the window.
Cybertron: Mighty Canyon
Two Autobots stand, looking into the canyon
Bulkhead: Its a damn shame.
Bumblebee: yeah, at least he's somewhere better
Bulkhead: *smiles* yeah, both servos in the scrap heap.
Bumblebee: We should leave, Sentinel will be expecting us back soon.

Just another small teaser, just an introduction to all our old favourites and expanding on the new characters

If you want to kill me, despise me, hate me, and live in an unsightly way…Run, and cling to life, and then some day, when you have the same eyes as I do, come before me.

Autobot HQ: Intensive Care Unit
Arcee lays on a iron stretcher with wires attached to her, A Scanner floats above of her, scanning her body for any damage. The Scanner floats away from her and Transforms, Ironhide Walks in
Ironhide: how is she, she was in pretty bad shape when she got here. They say that she's as good as dead
Perceptor: I never give up on a patient.
Ironhide: listen you! Arcee needs to die, She is an evil bounty hunter. She'll probably re-join with Hot Rod and Springer to continue, they could even kill Sentinel Prime!
Perceptor: So, you haven't heard the news?
Ironhide: What......news?
Perceptor: Its not really my place to say, Sir
Ironhide: I am your superior, you have no choice but to tell me.
Ironhide knocks Perceptor to the floor and aims a gun at him, he smiles
Ironhide: Such a shame that a medic should die. Well, not really
He shoots at Perceptor and hits him directly in the arm, taking it clean off and shutting Perceptor down.
Ironhide: Now, Lil'Lady!
Ironhide: Its your time *he smirks at Arcee's body and walks over*
Perceptor grabs Ironhides leg
Perceptor: noooooooo.
Ironhide looks down and aims his gun at perceptor's head
Ironhide: Such heroic nonsense
Ironhide fires a shot and kills Perceptor, he fires so hard that it blasts through the floor and Perceptors lifeless body falls to the next floor, shortly followed by an explosion.
Ironhide: Well, that was annoying.
He looks up and aims his gun at Arcee but she's disappeared.
Ironhide: FUCK!
He slams the stretcher with his fists, creating deep indents in the Iron.

Cybertron control room:
Ultra Magnus sits on a chair, high above all the other Autobots.
Ultra Magnus: Its a shame about the death of our Hunter but I can't deal with that at the moment
Sentinel Prime rolls his eyes and looks up at Magnus
Sentinel Prime: Sir?
Ultra Magnus: Well, With rumours of a Decpeticon army
Sentinel Prime: They are fake
Ultra Magnus stares into space as if he's questioning this
Ultra Magnus: You are right Sentinel, Dis-credit ALL rumours of a 'Con army, I mean everything, Imprison anyone who refuses to stop spreading the rumours
Sentinel smiles evilly and Nods at Magnus's command
Sentinel Prime: I would love to do it?
Ultra Magnus looks down at Sentinel
Sentinel Prime: I mean....what.......ahh, I've got nothing
Sentinel walks out of the room and Ultra Magnus looks at his fellow autobots.
Ultra Magnus: Well, Meanwhile we need to track down that latest where-abouts of the Dinobots, and yes, I've heard the rumours that they've become 'Cons but I assure you all that there is no way that's possible.
A Autobot looks disbelievingly at Magnus and looks down at his feet
Hound: You O.K. Trailbreaker?
Trailbreaker: Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little distracted
Hound: Hmmm
Hounds looks back at his monitor and looks at his screen, he stumbles back and looks at his screen horrified
The Screen shows 10 transformers fighting. Ultra Magnus looks at Hound and then stares at the screen, the screen floats towards Magnus
Trailbreaker: What's on that screen?
Ultra Magnus: It's nothing, get back to work
The Screen shows the 5 Dinobots fighting 5 Constructicons. Ultra Magnus stares at the screen
Ultra Magnus: Hound was importing a virus into the system, Take him away!
Prowl and Jazz step forward and grab hound, they drag him away by his hands and Hound screams to Trailbreaker about what he saw
Trailbreaker: what are you saying? [In his mind: Hound was dragged away for knowing the truth, I can't risk that if I'm gunna bring down the Elite Guard]

Ultra Magnus's private conference room:
6 Transformers sit around a desk, in the middle is a holographic picture of the 9 main deceptcons and their statistics
Vector Prime: So, Its true The Decepticons are back
Ultra Magnus: I have chosen to keep it secret from Cybertron
Alpha Trion: Is that wise?
Ultra Magnus: Should word get out of a Decepticon army, panic would grip our planet
Vector Prime: Your decisions seem flawed Magnus. I disagree with your decision
Ultra Magnus looks around and sighs
Sentinel Prime: I think Magnus is too old for this Job
Magnus stands up violently
Ultra Magnus: How dare you!
Sentinel Prime: I would like to vote for his immediate stand-down as Supreme Commander
Ultra Magnus slumps back into his chair
Ultra Magnus: You can't be serious
Sentinel: Oh but I am!
Vector Prime: I second the motion, a vote will be held. I say we should, all in favour say Aye, all opposed Nae
Sentinel Prime: Aye!
Alpha Trion: Aye
Longarm Prime: Nae
Landmine Major: Aye
Ultra Magnus looks disbelievingly at the group
Ultra Magnus: I have served you ALL for hundreds of megacycles and you kick me out like I'm trash!
Sentinel Prime: Yeah, that's the gist of it
Ultra Magnus: FINE! I shall dismiss myself from your presence.
Ultra Magnus walks down the corridor and looks down sadly at his Elite Guard Badge witch he quickly rips off and holds it in his hand, ripping it apart.
Back in the conference room.
Sentinel Prime: I appoint myself as Supreme commander
Longarm Prime: I should be Prime, after all I contribute the most to cybertronian society
Vector Prime: I agree with Longarm.
Sentinel Prime: I wish this didn't have to happen.

Great Canyon:
Bumblebee: So Bulkhead, what next?
Bulkhead: I have no idea, we visit this place every second day and we never learn anything.
Bumblebee: I wonder why its always burning?
Bulkhead: Some say its Primus others say Unicron
Bumblebee: What a load of slag
Bulkhead: you may believe so but others say differently
A transformer approaches them from behind, he taps Bulkhead on the back
Bulkhead: huh?
The figure launches himself up and kicks Bulkhead round the face, making Bulkhead stumble and fall. Bumblebee puts his stingers together but they are cut by a Ninja Star.
Bumblebee: Why are you doing this
The figure steps forward and picks Bumblebee up by the neck
Prowl: I'm sorry, old friend
Prowl proceeds to throw Bumblebee into the Fires of Cybertron
Bulkhead stands up and launches his mace for Bumblebee to grab.
Bulkhead: Hang in there bee, I'm gunna save ya!
Prowl: I'm sorry
Prowl kicks Bulkhead off of the Canyon and Bumblebee falls with him
Prowl grabs a list from his Armour, it has 4 names listed on it. He crosses two of them out
Prowl: Its a damn shame, we where once all friends.
Another transformer appears on a lone rock in the middle of the canyon, he raises a Axe and a turbo feature enables him to fly at Prowl with unreal speed. Prowl jumps at the last minute and evades the Transformer
Prowl: I don't understand, I killed you.
Transformer: Yes, I guess you did but then again. I'm not who you think I am.
The transformers launches his Axe again and Prowl narrowly evades it
Prowl: I don't have time to play any more
Prowl kicks the Transformer round the head, The transformer looks but doesn't see Prowl anywhere. He looks above himself and sees Prowl using his thrusters to fly off
Nemesis Prime: I will KILL you, PROOOOOOOOOWL!

So far, a good story. You mind checking my fan fiction out? Its called Transformers: Matrix Chronicles.

Do you like it or is this shameless advertising?

I'm joking
I will check it out and thanks

XD No, I'm serious (in all seriousness). Its a great story, loving how Hot Rod is brought into the story. Very creative, using a G1 story-style with animated characters...very nice
