love it! also interested to see how far you take this hatred terrorsoar and dynobot have for each other. keep it up -Jazz
Chapter 2 Part 7 2:7 _The Maximals regroup in the main room after the Predacons retreat._ Optimus Primal: It seems a lot has happened since I went into the CR chamber. Poggletrap: Well, for starters we’ve got ah Pred on our team now. Optimus Primal: Great we’ll take all the help we can get. Dynobot: I am not here to help you take down the Predacons, but it seems you and I share a common enemy in Terrorsaor. Rattleox: Sounds like help to me. Poggletrap: WHAT? Just like that?! He’s in just like that? I had to spend years getting my star cruisers license, then go through training and he gets to just walk in? _The group simply ignores Poggletrap._ Optimus Primal: What was Spindulas after us for? Gryketor: He was trying to resurrect Megatron, with OUR sparks. Optimus Primal: WHAT?! Gryketor: You can ask him yourself. With the help of Dynobot we were able to… Poggletrap: Ahemmm…. Gryketor: AND Poggletrap we were able to capture him. _The group walk into where Spindulas WAS being held._ Poggletrap: But, he was JUST here. They rescued him ALREADY? sheesh. Dynobot: It seems as though Megatoran's plan is further in motion than previously anticipated. They NEED him to perform the spark transfer. Optimus Primal: Where could they have gotten another, if not from us? Gryketor: Maybe from a stasis pod that fell? Optimus Primal: Well that’s just prime. _Spindulas’s lair; Spindulas has Scrofanok pinned down to a stretcher. He is humming a tune while preparing his equipment when Scrofanok comes to._ Scrofanok: What are you doing? Spindulas: (Sigh) I need a spark. _He flips open an energon blade._ Scrofanok: I ORDER YOU TO RELEASE ME! Spindulas: Hehehehahahaha, I’m ganna enjoy this I think. _Scrofanok, quickly realizes he’s not going to be able to order himself out of this situation._ Scrofank: NO nonononononono! Spindulas: The Maximals were much braver about this than you. HEHEHEHE. _Spindulas begins cutting through Scrofanok._ Scrofanok: NOooo AAAHHHRRGGGGHH _On the Darksyde_ Retrax: Hey Injector ...Where’s Scrofanok? Injector: I dunno’, but I’m glad I’m not him. Megatoran’s ganna give it to him bad taking so much time to plant that virus.
Primal seems a little flat about Dynobot helping the Maximals, but Spindulas and Scrofanok's exchange is priceless. Great stuff, Rob. - Alty
That gets addressed later on dont you worry, not that i think you are. Also i think what Rattleox said kinda summed it up. Enemy of an Enemy is a friend at this point for them. Also am glad everyone thought that poor Scrofanok getting his spark ripped out was funny! You guys are sick...
Chapter 3 Part 1 3:1 Gryketor: So what do we do now Big Bot? Optimus Primal: If what Dynobot is telling us is true, then we need to find Megatron before they resurrect him. Meaning we need to get into the Darksyde. Dynobot can you lead Poggletrap and Gryketor to the Darksyde? Poggletrap: Wait a sec! You all might trust this Pred, but back on Cybertron I saw firsthand what ALL Predacons were capable of doing Once a Pred always a Pred, I don’t trust him with MY life. Optimus Primal: Frankly, Poggletrap, I don’t care what you think. Right now the only thing I care about is stopping Megatoran. Gryketor will be there to back you up if need be. _At the Darksyde Megatoran, who is aggravated by the sting of failures by his subordinates, calculates his next move._ Megatoran: Blast! My second in command has gone missing, Spindulas has been gone since we arrive at this planets, so now I am stuck with Terrorsoar and ..you two. Computer: <Stasis Pod Detected> Megatoran: A change of luck. Computer calculate most likely landing spot. Computer: <Grid Alpha 4> Megatoran: Ah, right in the neighborhood. Retrax, Injector I will join you in the apprehension of this pod. I cannot afford any more failures. _On the Axalon Rattleox and Optimus Primal are also alerted of the stasis pod._ Optimus: Where’s the most probable landing spot? Rattleox: grid Alpha 4 Optimus Primal: <Primal to Gryketor a stasis pod landed in grid Alpha 4.> Dynobot: That is right near the location of the Darksyde. We are close. Optimus Primal: That pod is our number one priority; secure it before you infiltrate the Darksyde. _Gryketor, Poggletrap and Dynobot watch as the pod flies over head and crash lands in the distance. They arrive at the sight of the pod, however the Predacon have already began to reprogram it. The Maximals watch from cover._ Gryketor: Slag the Predacons are already here. Dynobot: With Megatoran Retrax and Injector at the pod that will leave the Darksyde relatively undefended. Gryketor: But, Optimus wants that pod. Poggletrap: Yeah, and I ain’t in the mood to be taking orders from no Predacons. Gryketor: Dynobot’s right Megatoran has already secured the pod if we don’t infiltrate the Darksyde now we risk failing both missions. _At the Pod Megatoran, Retrax, and Injector all huddle around the pod._ Retrax: Has it been activated already? Megatoran: No, it hasn’t. Injector: That’s what you thought about the last one. Megatoran: Shut up you imbecile this one will be different. _He pulls out a computer chip, opens up the Pod’s computer and inserts it into the mainframe._ No more incompetence, No more treachery. He will be the perfect solider. Pod computer: Scanning for suitable life forms……Scanning complete. _The Pod slowly opens._ Megatoran: Yesssss, YESSSS!
Chapter 3 part 2 3:2 _Just outside the perminter of the Darksyde Poggletrap, Gryketor, and Dynobot discuss their plan to get into the Predacon ship._ Gryketor: Okay, Dynobot you know the ship. Where’s our best bet for the data? Dynobot: The computer mainframe is located in the rear of the ship. Gryketor: Okay we’ll keep a watch while you get the data. _Poggletrap walks off towards the Darksyde._ _At the pod the Predacons watch as a large terabyte exits._ Megatoran: Yesss! Welcome to the Predacon army my dear… Inferno: INVADERS TO THE COLONY!!! _Inferno attacks and easily disposes of Retrax and Injector and sets his sights on Megatoran whom he bites. Megatoran is unimpressed with this game and flings him off._ Megatoran: Colony? I will bring you to a bigger better colony and I will be your new leader. Inferno: A better colony? _ Megatoran blasts the pod._ Megatoran: Yes now you have no choice. Join OUR colony or parish. _At the Darksyde Poggletrap is scurrying through the vents looking for the mainframe. Through a screen in the vents he finds it._ _Outside of the Darksyde while doing surveillance Dynobot spots Terrorsoar patrolling._ Dynobot: Wait here. _He charges from behind his rocky cover._ Gryketor: Wait Dyno….Gryketor to Poggletrap. Poggletrap: <What is it?> Gryketor: Have you found Megatrons location yet? Poggletrap: No, I haven’t that okay with you? Gryketor:Well, I think Dynobot just compromised our mission. Poggletrap: <Oh well THERE’S a surprise.> _Dynobot runs to Terrorsoar and stops._ Terrorsoar: I once thought that you and I wanted the same thing. But now I realize you are weak. Weaker than the Maximals you have joined. I thought you were willing to do WHAT EVER IT TOOK for Predacon superiority. Dynobot: The slaughter of defenseless Cybertronians? There is no honor in that. That is not the cost of victory. Terrorsoar: NOW you wish to protect the weak? Tell me where is it that you stand? _A battle ensues._ Poggletrap: Poggletrap to Gryketor. There’s nothing here on Megatron, but there was data logs about the Huffer Dynobot was talking about. Gryketor: Great, now get out of there before Terrorsoar alerts the other Predacons. _Gryketor runs over to Dynobot and Terrorsoar, who are still fighting, and takes aim._ Dynobot: Do NOT fire your weapon! This is my battle to win or lose. _Using this opportunity Terrorsoar delivers a crippling blow to Dynobot and then turns his attention to Gryketor. Who is hesitantly scared to fire his blaster because of the sheer intimidation of Terrorsoar. Terrorsoar takes the gun from him and grabs his throat. _ Poggletrap: I wouldn’t recommend that. Not if you want to keep that pretty little mug of yours intact._Poggletrap cocks his blaster_ Drop him. _Terrorsoar complies._ _ Poggletrap and Gryketor slowly move back to Dynobot as he gets up._ Terrorsaor: Your friends won’t always be here to protect you.
Thanks, now heres some unwanted, unnecessary thinking on my part for them. I thought that in order for them to have a long standing feud i needed there to be a reason that needed some explanation. However they were once both Predacons so that reason couldnt be a COMPLETE fundamental difference. I think that little difference of who should be killed for a cause is enough that it could set Terrorsoar off, especially seeing as he is extremely ruthless and almost insecure with anyone else being a better fighter than him.
3:3 _ Spindulas is wandering through a thick jungle part of the super-continent. He comes to a clearing with the rotting husk of the G1 Soundwave._ Spindulas: Hehehehe… _He crawls up onto Soundwave, opens up the cassette deck, and climbs inside._ Spindulas: Terrorize! _Spindulas looks around at the rotting internals._ Spindulas: Much better condition than I could have hoped for. _ He takes out equipment, begins to splice wires, and plugs them into various hardware. He takes out Scrofanok’s spark, which is housed in a glass tube, and plugs that into the hardware. Soundwave’s internals light up as Spindulas exits._ _The Axalon; Poggletrap Gryketor and Dynobot enter through the elevator._ Poggletrap: If you ever put me and my comrades in danger again, I’ll…. _Optimus notices the argument and walks over to litigate._ Optimus Primal: Poggletrap calm down what happened? Poggletrap: Your Pred friend nearly got us killed and almost compromised our mission. _Optimus looks at Dynobot._ Optimus Primal: Is this true? _Dynobot who is unwavered answers._ Dynobot: I do not have to explain myself to you. _Optimus Primal slams his fist on the wall next to Dynobots head._ Optimus Primal: Yes you do! I can’t put my men in harms way because of you and your vendettas. Dynobot: You were aware of my intentions when I was asked to join this team. Optimus Primal: And I guess I made a mistake, so until you are committed to OUR cause you are no longer welcome here. _Dynobot gives Primal a cold stare and leaves down the elevators. Primal looks at Poggletrap and notices he is smirking._ Optimus Primal: Weather you like it or not you and Dynobot were on the same team and you turned your back on him… Poggletrap: He was and will never be a Maximal…and maybe if the squad leader could control his squad I wouldn’t have to. Optimus Primal: That’s enough Poggletrap it’s over. _Poggletrap gets right up in front of Optimus Primal._ Poggletrap: Oh now IM the bad guy? YOU were the one that let the Pred-A-Con in the Maximals. In case you forgot ‘Fearless Leader’ they are the enemy! Optimus Primal: You are dismissed, Poggletrap! Poggletrap: I’ll be in my quarters! _Poggletrap, walks off down the hall. Optimus Primal turns to Gryketor._ Primal: As my second in command, Gryketor, I need you to take command. I chose you because you have all the qualities a leader needs. You are strong, passionate, and intelligent. While we were just exploring I know the role was minimal. But, now I need you. If you can’t handle it, I understand. Gryketor: No, I can handle it, but what about Dynobot? Optimus Primal: He’s not going back to the Predacons. He just needs to clear his head. He’ll be back. _ On the Darksyde Inferno, Retrax, and Injector are mulling about when the base alarms go off._ Verrrt Verrt Computer: Intruder detected. _Megatoran pulls up security video on screen, but sees nothing._ Megatoran: Inferno take Retrax and Injector and find our intruder. Inferno: Yes royalty _Inferno salutes Megatoran and turns to Retax and Injector._ The Royalty has commanded us I will lead, you shall follow! _Inferno flies away, Injector turns to Retrax._ Injector: And I thought Scrofanok was bad. _They too leave the room._ Megatoran:::sigh:: Incompetence. _Laughter can then be heard from the darkness of the ceiling._ Spindulas: Hehehehehehehhahahahah _Spindulas descends down a web in front of Megatoran._ Spindulas: I’m home! Hehehehe- _Megatoran back hands Spindulas sending him to the ground. Megatoran gets off his throne and steps on the thorax of Spindulas._ Megatoran: Treacherous spider how dare you mock me. Spindulas: All these harsh words and your weapons are not even pointed at me. Hehehehehe you need me. Megatoran: Ohhh and why’s that? Spindulas: Because you and I both know that you are on your heals. Retrax and Injector aren’t the warriors you thought they’d be and Terrorsoar fights his own, personal, battles. Dynobot, wellll, we know his story. Heheheehe _Megatoran pushes down as he laughs._ hehe-ack Megatoran: No more deception no more treachery. Betray me again and you’ll wish you were never brought online. Spindulas: I am your humble servant oh mighty….Megatoran.
Another wonderful chapter, Rob. The interaction between the characters really shines here, and I love it! - Alty
