Transformers: Fall of Equestria

by JDPrime22


Meeting The Royalty

Lost.

The Decepticons have lost in a major battle with the Autobots in this cursed forest. Deep in an abandoned cave, was the badly injured Megatron and his evil Decepticons. Megatron was never in so much pain; he had lost an arm and got stabbed in the abdomen. The Decepticon Blast Off was doing his best to heal his wounded master.

Megatron winced in pain yet again as his wiring in his arm was being tampered with. His arm had to be re-attached at once. Blast Off was trying his hardest but Megatron wouldn't ease up on him.

"Careful you fool. You might destroy all the components in my arm socket!" Megatron said.

"Sorry Megatron.......why were you easily beaten? You're our master, you can't fall so easily." Blast Off said.

"How would you like to face Optimus Prime and Grimlock at the same exact time?" Megatron asked him.

"I wouldn't." Blast Off admitted.

"That's what I thought. OW!!!" Megatron yelled as Blast Off began working on his abdomen areas, putting the wiring and circuitry back in.

Megatron was beginning to feel dizzy and his optics was going dark. He was never in so much pain before, usually the over shields would begin repairing him but something wasn’t right here. Demolisher and Barricade came to his side. He looked over to see the Decepticon tank smirking.

"What are you smiling about, Demolisher?!" Megatron asked.

"You're dying Megatron, and when you do, I will be the new leader of the Decepticons." Demolisher calmly said knowing Megatron can't do anything to him in this state.

"You will never be the leader of the Decepticons! I will not die!" Megatron yelled but moaned in agony as his circuits were being torn out in place of new ones.

"Are you sure about that oh mighty leader?" Barricade asked smiling insanely.

Megatron didn't know what to think.

As the horrible surgery kept on going, Megatron heard footsteps coming inside the cave.

"Who....is...that?" Megatron could barely talk.

"It's.....It's..." Brawl said as he pointed his gun at the unknown person. Megatron couldn't see who it was.

"Hello fellow Decepticons, I bring you no harm, but I do bring you information involving our mighty and powerful master."

That voice, Megatron recognized it immediately. Starscream.

"Show yourself....coward." Megatron stuttered.

The rest of the Decepticons raised their weapons and prepared to fire but Starscream put up both hands. "I have information on how to heal Megatron you fools; you would be wise not to hurt me!" Starscream yelled.

"Lower your weapons Decepticons." Megatron wheezed. The Decepticons obeyed. Starscream smirked as he walked closer to Megatron. Megatron looked at him.

"How can I be healed?" Megatron asked.

"I will only tell you if you take the hit off me." Starscream said.

"What hit?!" Megatron yelled.

"You wanted to kill me; you thought it was my fault that we got sent to this cursed planet, so I want you to simply say that I, Starscream, will have his rightful place as the sky commander of the Decepticons." Starscream explained.

Megatron thought about this for a moment and looked at his torn apart insides. "Okay Starscream, you are part of the Decepticon ranks yet again." Megatron scowled.

Starscream chuckled and got closer to Megatron. He began, "Simple surgery cannot save you Megatron, and instead I have found a new powerful artifact that has the power to do just that."

"Powerful....artifact?" Megatron repeated Starscream’s words.

"Artifacts to be precise," Starscream corrected himself, "they are called The Elements of Harmony, and they’re extremely powerful and located in the capitol of this world."

"What is this world called.....Starscream?" Megatron asked.

"It is called Equestria." Starscream answered.

"I see..." Soundwave began. The Decepticons looked at the communications officer. "Equestria, as in equine, which is another expression for horse or pony." Soundwave explained.

Megatron looked at Starscream again. "Starscream...." Megatron wheezed. Starscream looked at his fallen master. "To prove yourself worthy to me again, you must collect these Elements of Harmony and bring them to me." Megatron told him.

Starscream bowed and said, "I will not fail you, lord Megatron!"

"Take as many Decepticons as you please......do NOT fail me Starscream!" Megatron threatened and laid back down.

Starscream looked at the massive group of Decepticons and pointed out the ones he wanted to take. "Thundercracker, Skywarp, Swindle, Vortex, Brawl, Onslaught, Blast Off, and Soundwave, you are all to come with me, I will be your commander!" Starscream said.

"Oh great…" Swindle groaned.

"Get going Starscream! I don't have much time!" Megatron threatened.

"Time is of the essence, we wouldn't want our leader to die now would we?" Starscream smirked.

"I hate your jokes so much Starscream, now go!!!" Megatron roared and lay back down.

Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp, Vortex, and Blast Off transformed into their flying modes and flew out of the cave and into the skies. Swindle, Brawl, Onslaught, and Soundwave transformed and followed the flyers on the ground. As Starscream left, Megatron laid his head back down and remembered how much he hated Starscream.

The painful memories returned.
________________________________________

Megatron was in his prime, he was so strong and so powerful, and no Autobot or Decepticon could stand in his way of total victory of Cybertron. But this day was extra special.

As Megatron stood at his control post, he waited patiently for Starscream to return with his special prize. Megatron stared out the window of his throne room with several Decepticon soldiers behind him. All of a sudden, a loud roar of cheers filled his hearing processors.

Megatron turned around to see Starscream walking right for him, laughing at what he had captured. The Decepticon soldiers were cheering and clapping from Starscream’s prize.

“HAHAHA!!!” Starscream laughed and stopped in front of Megatron. “Megatron, look what I found.”

Laserbeak squawked from Soundwave’s shoulder as Brawl and Onslaught pushed down the body of the Autobot leader at Megatron’s feet. Megatron turned around and smiled deviously.

“Optimus ‘Prime’. That is what they call you now isn’t it?” Megatron asked.

“Megatron…” Optimus spat out as he pushed to the ground by the two Combaticons.

Starscream smirked at his master and said, “Funny, isn’t it, Megatron? How easily I defeated the one adversary you couldn’t.”

“Silence..!” Megatron shouted and shot Starscream with his cannon which sent him crashing to the ground behind Optimus.
Onslaught and Brawl backed away as Optimus’ hands were chained to the ground by the blue energy couplets.

“It didn’t have to come to this…” Optimus said as Megatron approached.

Megatron gloated as he approached, “This is what you chose, Prime, when you defied me! All of this is your doing!”

Two Autobot soldiers were being held captive and watched in horror as Megatron was about to finish off their leader. “Optimus!” An Autobot soldier shouted before Megatron shot him, killing him instantly.

Optimus saw as his Autobot brother was killed viciously. “Megatron, stop!” Optimus Prime shouted.

Megatron turned back to Prime and said, “I’ll stop…when all of you are dead!” Megatron finished off the last captive Autobot with one blast.

“This is needless; all we want is to leave!” Optimus shouted until Megatron smacked him with the back of his right hand, silencing the last Prime.

Megatron turned back towards his control post and walked calmly back. He looked at a group of soldiers and said, “Charge up the Warp Cannon. Wipe their precious Ark off the face of Cybertron!”

“Yes sir!” A Decepticon soldier said and began the Warp Cannon on one of the computers.

Megatron turned back to Optimus Prime and shouted, “No one leaves without my permission!”

Optimus stood back up and glared at his hated rival, “I wasn’t asking.”

Megatron scowled at how resilient Optimus was to him.

“Always defiant to the end aren’t you, Prime! At every turn you have thwarted my efforts to save this planet! To return it to its former glory!”

Megatron didn’t even notice the large Autobot city lumbering behind him.

“No more! This day it all ends, Prime! Once and for all!” Megatron finished as his command post suddenly began to shake.
“Megatron, look out!” Soundwave shouted and ran away.

Metroplex ripped the roof off of Megatron’s command post and looked down at Optimus Prime. Megatron shot several blasts from his cannon at the mighty Autobot city but it did little damage.

“Stop running you fools! Stand and fight!” Megatron shouted at his retreating Decepticon soldiers and continued to fire.

Metroplex lifted up his massive fist and brought it down on Megatron, crushing him! Optimus’ chains were broken and he watched in awe as Metroplex crushed Megatron again and again.

Megatron lifted up his cannon and fired one more shot before meeting Metroplex’s fist.

The Decepticon leader lay in the ruins of the command post and barely looked up to see Metroplex crush him again.

And what a surprise….Metroplex crushed him one more time.

The Decepticon command post was decimated. As Metroplex slowly raised his fist, Starscream, Soundwave, Onslaught, and Brawl walked forward to see Optimus glaring at them.

“Leave. NOW.” Optimus threatened.

Starscream glared at Optimus Prime but suddenly looked down to see Megatron’s destroyed hand sticking out of the tattered ground. Starscream looked back up at the mighty Metroplex. Starscream did the math.

“Decepticons, Megatron has perished, betrayed by his foolish pride.” Starscream said.

Soundwave, Onslaught, and Brawl stared at Starscream as he continued.

“I, Starscream, am your leader now!” Starscream took one last look at Optimus Prime who glared right back. “Decepticons, return to base!”

With that, Starscream transformed and flew away. Onslaught and Brawl retreated behind Starscream while Soundwave stayed where he was. Soundwave couldn’t believe it, his master….was gone.

With one final look, Soundwave turned away and retreated.

Little did Starscream know…..that Megatron had listened to every word he had said.
________________________________________

Megatron wheezed in pain after reliving those horrid moments of tragedy. Yes, he hated Starscream with all that he was, but now….Starscream was his only hope of survival.


In the night sky, Skywarp flew by Starscream and said nervously, "Hehe, no hard feelings right Starscream?"

"Ohhh, none what so ever." Starscream said with venom dripping from his voice.

The nine Decepticons traveled through or above the forest, on the hunt for The Elements of Harmony.

The large group of Autobots, ponies, dragon, and Royal Guard had passed Ponyville without being noticed.

It was still night, but the moon was getting lower, it was to be day very soon. Rarity was lagging behind; she didn't get any sleep at all. Applejack shook her head to keep herself awake, Rainbow yawned constantly, Fluttershy was already asleep and Bumblebee carried her in his hands, it was quite adorable and Bumblebee couldn't help but smile. Pinkie wasn't tired at all, and hopped the entire way.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders were sent to their homes right when they got to Ponyville. Hopefully, they will have learned their lesson.

The walk to Canterlot was very quiet; all except Pinkie who kept asking the Autobots to transform and take her for a ride. The Autobots tried their best to ignore her. Twilight looked over at Optimus again and saw that he was limping.

"Oh no, Optimus, are you okay?!" Twilight asked.

Optimus touched his leg and saw that it was static with circuitry coming out along with liquid Energon. Optimus groaned in pain. "I'll be fine for now, just got to.....ignore it." Optimus said.

"No you're injured; we'll get you help right away when we get to Canterlot." Twilight finished with a smile. Optimus felt happier now that this pony cared so much about him and his team.

Shining Armor awoke on the back of Applejack. He shook his head to regain his senses.

"Oh my aching..." Shining began.

"OH Shiny you're awake!" Twilight walked by him and nuzzled her brother.

"What happened?" Shining asked.

"You got attacked by a Decepticon, but Optimus saved your life." Twilight said and smiled at Optimus.

Shining looked up at Prime, Optimus nodded and continued to walk. "Oh, thank you Optimus, I owe you my life." Shining told him.

"You don't owe me anything, the Decepticons attacked you, and it was my sworn duty to protect every living thing from their wrath." Optimus Prime explained.

"Wow." Twilight felt even more respect for Optimus than before.

Bumblebee looked down at the sleeping pony in his hands; Fluttershy's silent breaths were barely heard as her tiny chest went up and down. Bumblebee felt warm inside, how this pony could make Bumblebee's worn-torn spark warm up, he didn't know.

The rest of the walk was quiet, after a few hours, the sun came up and the Autobots, ponies, dragon, and Royal Guard had arrived at Canterlot. Shining Armor got off of Applejack's back and walked by himself slightly limping.

The front gates were closed; two Royal Guard stepped up and saw the massive giants in front of them. They panicked but suddenly saw Shining Armor putting his hoof up. "It is alright Guards! They're friendly; we're here to see Princess Celestia, royal business." Shining Armor explained.

The Guards backed up in fear and opened the gates. The Autobots walked past them and some waved to the Guards. The walk through Canterlot was just what the Mane 6 had expected; fear. All the up-tight ponies were terrified as the Autobots calmly walked through the city. Optimus paid them no heed and continued to lead the Autobots; of course the ponies led the way.

After a few minutes of walking, they had arrived to the royal grounds. Shining Armor waved at his Royal Guards to go away, they did and soon it was just the Mane 6, Spike, Shining Armor, and the Autobots.

Shining gulped and walked in Celestia’s throne room first. The Autobots shuffled nervously, not knowing what to expect. Twilight saw this and acted quickly. "Don't worry Autobots, the Princess is very nice and very fair, she will understand you're not a threat to this world." Twilight said smiling.

"Yeah, you saved our lives after all!" Rainbow Dash said.

"And saved mah sister." Applejack smiled.

"Oh yes, you are all very nice, the Princess will just love you!" Rarity gushed.

"Yeah…" Fluttershy quietly agreed and yawned from just awakening.

"Celestia is the nicest Princess ever! You guys will be just fine!" Pinkie Pie told them.

Just then, the doors busted open and hundreds of Royal Guard spilled out with spears raised. They circled the Autobots and pointed the spears at them. "Hooves up where we can see them!" A Royal Guard shouted.

"Hooves?" Jetfire whispered to Wheeljack. Wheeljack shrugged not knowing what it was either.

Optimus quickly thought that hooves must mean hands in this world. So Optimus Prime raised his hands in the air making him not a threat. The Autobots saw their leader do this and did the exact same thing. All the Autobots had the hands in the air except for Sideswipe who laid on the ground unconscious.

Similar to Sideswipe, but with a stubborn attitude, Grimlock and the Dinobots didn’t raise their hands as well.

"You will never make me raise my hands, organics!" Grimlock shouted. The Guards backed up but continued to hold their spears.

"Yes, yes! No!!! I agree!!!" Slug said glaring at the Guards.

Optimus turned to the Dinobots, "Grimlock, Slug, Snarl, and Swoop, put your hands in the air now! We can't be seen as a threat to this world!" Optimus ordered.

The Dinobots groaned and slowly raised their hands. The six mares were very stunned to see the Royal Guard acting this way. Celestia wouldn't do this to innocent creatures, what did Shining Armor tell her?

Ironhide chuckled and leaned down to Twilight a little, he said, "Hehe, Celestia obviously thinks we are not a threat to this world."

Twilight didn't say anything and moved where the Royal Guard wanted her and her friends to go, behind the Autobots as they were forced inside the royal room of Celestia. Hound picked up Sideswipe this time and followed the rest of the team.

As the Autobots were being forced to walk down the long hallway with hands in the air, Jazz nudged Prime and said, "What do we do, Optimus?"

Optimus answered not even looking at him.

"We will wait and see, old friend."
