Before time began, there was the Cube. We know not where it comes from, only that it holds the power to create worlds and fill them with life. That was how our race was born. For a time, we lived in harmony, but like all great power, some wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war - a war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death, and the Cube was lost to the far reaches of space. We scattered across the galaxy, hoping to find it and rebuild our home, searching every star, every world. And just when all hope seemed lost, message of a new discovery drew us to an unknown planet called... EQUESTRIA.
But we were already too late...
In terms of MLP continuity, the story takes place before, during, and after the events in the episode, The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone.
In terms of Transformers continuity, even though it is unrelated to any of the universes, it does borrow elements from several timelines (most importantly, the Aligned continuity).
Also, both MLP and Transformers are owned by Hasbro.
Awesome!

Glad you've enjoyed it so far.
9548461
you kidding me? I'm a big fan of transformers
9548987
Well, duh!
Your name is clearly inspired by an extremely popular Autobot whose solo film finally brought some dignity to the franchise on the big screen.
9549037
oh right
Great work on this chapter. But what could Decepticons be looking for?
9549642
The same thing they were looking for in the first live-action movie.
9550085
Oh right, silly me.
A story with the title of a great song and the chapters being named after said song's lyrics. My dreams have officially come true.
9552093
Glad you're pleased.
9552483
Doom Slayer gives you thumb's up.
9553183
I really appreciate that.
9554539
You're welcome.
RIP Chester Bennington.
9555387
Agreed.
Nice way to start a story with a bang!
9561218
Well, if there is one useful thing I learned from watching Michael Bay movies is that audiences instantly get hooked on a story with a good amount of destruction in the beginning.
Awesome!
9581512
Yeah, you already said that.
9581614
I know
Optimus looks terrible
9582368
I use the designs from the videogame Transformers: War for Cybertron.
It takes place during the final chapters of the great civil war between Autobots and Decepticons, and before both sides travel to Earth.
Basically, this is what Optimus looks like before he scans a semi truck on Earth and since there are no cars or trucks in Equestria, I thought it would be best to use these designs for the story.
Also, would you instead prefer this design from the sequel game Transformers: Fall of Cybertron?

9582440
Ah. Then it makes sense.
9582945
So, which design do you like more?
The one from WFC or the one from FOC?
9583651
The first works
9583802
Got it.
As in the Cosmic Cube? I wasn't aware this was a Marvel Comics crossover.
Awesome!!!
9602959
Good one!
9603094
Thank you again.
9603486
yeah
Optimus is here!
9602959
Looks we'll have to also protect it from Thanos as well.
Don't know the guy you have voicing Rachet but to me the guy that played Weyoun is theperfect fit.
9606730
You might recognize Fred Tatasciore from these roles:
- Mario Auditore in Assassin’s Creed II
- Bane, Solomon Grundy, and Swamp Thing in Injustice games
- The Incredible Hulk in The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and Hulk vs. Wolverine
- Cable in the Deadpool videogame
Also, while I do think that the guy you mentioned is the perfect Ratchet voice, I’m planning to utilize him in another story.
9606365
Hmmm, I think I just found a great pitch for the next Death Battle:
THANOS vs. MEGATRON!
9606843
Doesn't help sorry. Never played those games.
9606980
Alright.
Looks like I’ll be using Weyoun’s voice for this story as well.
9606310
At last, there is hope, after all.
9606879
Fuck yes.
9606980
Okay, here is another potentially good voice actor for Ratchet:
Garry Chalk (the voice of Prince Rutherford in MLP and Optimus Primal in Beast Wars)
What do you think?
9627959
Nope. Jeffery Combs is just too good.
9628059
Fine.
I’ll use HIS voice, then.
Side Note: The next chapter will be released on May 26 and will feature an awesome fight scene.
9628595
Cool
Viewing from the front page, this seems like a brilliant investment. Plus, I can sing as chapters are released so...
9657012
Thank you for your appreciation of my hard work. It really means a lot.
Fun Fact: I originally planned to release this chapter on May 26, but then decided to add some additional stuff to it.
It returns. At long last.
9662972
Sorry for the delay.
I had a lot on my plate lately.
9663571
That's alright.
Well, you're doing g better than the first few chapters. Keep going.
