//------------------------------// // Beast Wars(The Ark) // Story: Transformers Prime: Magic of the Dinobots // by Metroid Prime //------------------------------// "Jazz! Where are you? We have 3 minutes to impact" "Copy that Sideswipe in route" the Autobot second in command Jazz made his way down the hallway he was making his way to the bridge to help assist in "landing" . A few Megacycles ago he and the rest of the crew aboard the Ark had awakened from stasis after coming out of yet another space bridge after trying to track down the Allspark and apparently they had been asleep for 10 million years years and shortly after exiting the space bridge they where on a collision course with an unknown planet, Preceptor said they would have a rough landing due to the damage to the Ark but anything was better than floating around in space. the closer they came to the planet, the more the Ark began to shake, Jazz apparently now understood preceptors meaning of "rough landing". Jazz entered the Bridge just in time to see the cloud layer pass before them and solid ground came into view. "Preceptor whats our status?" Jazz asked "The Ark has lost its brakes we can only manage controlled crash" "Then Manage it" "On it" "Jazz I need help steering" Ironhide said "Aww come on Ironhide I thought you where the toughest bot around" "Yeah but I can't hold this forever" "Okay everybody where heading straight for that forest" "Brace yourselves" Jazz said as he assisted Ironhide impact in 5.4.3.2.- ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 50 million years later. "That energy signals getting stronger its coming from that forest " Swoop said The gang had been tracking the energy signal that was detected from a nearby forest northwest of ponyville, they did not know what awaited them but they knew they had to find it before the decepticons did. "So what do you think its gonna be? Energon, Autobots?" Sludge said "Don't know just keep looking" Grimlock said Swoop suddenly stopped in his tracks. "That's strange" "What is?" Orion said "The scanner says that the signal is right here" "But I don't see anything" Snarl said The team began to look around for signs of anything unusual. "There nothing here, are you sure that tracking device is right?" Grimlock said "Of course it is, I made it" Swoop said "Yeah, that gives us hope" Slug said "Hey guys I found something" Orion shouted The buts all converged on Orion's position and found him standing on a metal source slightly covered with dirt. "What is it?" Swoop said Grimlock knelt down and began to brush of the dirt. Reveling the Autobot symbol. "Its the Autobot insignia!" Grimlock said 'Good work Orion" Swoop said Orion flashed a smile. Grimlock put his hand on the hatch and opened the door. "Okay Snarl wait here, maintain dino form until I say so" "Do I have to?" "Yes" "Fine" The three bots and Orion flew down into the hallway landing on solid surface. "Swoop give us some light" Swoop turned on his light and the first thing the group saw was a stasis pod, and in it was Scattershot. ___________________________________________________________________________ Kickback stood on the edge of the cliff the in the distance could be viewing ponyville, and he had a day set out for him. Shockwave said that due to the recent success of the decepticons they where given the day of, the could roam around Equestria as long as they maintain their beast modes which was fine with him, he wanted them to see his scary insect face. "Today, is gonna be a good day hehehehe" ____________________________________________________________________________ Scattershot was still dazed but he was slowly coming to. His optic sensors where just beginning to come online. "Scattershot, you okay?" a voice said When his vision cleared up standing in front of him was the Dinobot Swoop. "Hey the Elite guard Captain lives!" "Swoop, Slug, Grimlock?" he said surprised "What are you guys doing here?" "Waking you up is what where here for" Grimlock said "Along with all the other Autobots in this ship, now are you at full strength?" Scattershot checked his system "Yes" "Good start helping yes by waking up your elite guards while we wake up the others" The Autobots then went to work waking up the their sleeping brethren. Scattershot came upon the pod of his second in command Warpath and preceded to awaken him "Ohh man that was trough landing" Warpath said "My processor is still shaking" "Well make it stop because we need to awaken the rest of the elite guard" Scattershot said The two bots went to work waking the rest of the Ark crew. _____________________________________________________________________ Kickback was using his cloaker to sneak up on an unsuspecting filly. He had it all planned first he would take the pony, string it up and hide it in the forest, finally when the others came to rescue their friend, he would have plenty more heads to add to his growing collection. "By the end of today my head collection will be breath takeingggggg heheheheheh" the Insecticon said with a grin ________________________________________________________________________ By now most of the Autobots had been awakened, namely Elite Guard Caption: Scattershot Elite Guard Second in Command: Warpath Autobot Commander: Jazz Autobot Commander: Ironhide Wreckers: Hot Shot The Aerialbots: Jetfire, Silverbolt, Air Raid, Fireflight, and Skydive Laserproof Sergent Kup Munition Specialist: Fallback Bantor Hound Prowl Blaster Swerve Preceptor Falcatron Bluestreak Autobot scout: Sideswipe The Protectobots: Hot Spot, Streetwise, Blades, Groove, and First Aid And numerous Arm Minicons that where brought aboard the Ark. Everyone was brought to the bridge to decide what to do about our predicament. "So first of all how did you and your team get here Grimlock?" Ironhide asked "We crashed here shortly after you guys left Cybertron" "Well its a good thing we crashed here as well or else we could have been here until something else woke us up" Swerve said "So what where you guys doing in this corner of the galaxy?" Orion asked Swerve looked down to see a strange small creature at his feet. "AAHH what is that thing?" Swerve asked jumping back "Its okay Swerve its friendly" Swoop said picking Orion up "Their called ponies and their quite friendly, this ones called a Pegasus his name is Orion Comet" "Its nice to meet you Orion, I'm Jazz" "So these are the lifeforms on this planet?" Fallback asked "Yeah their are three kinds" Snarl said "Earth Ponies, Pegasus, and Unicorns" "The Earth ponies have no powers, the Pegasus can fly, while unicorns can uses magic" "Really? Only decedents of the original prime of magic can use magic" Preceptor said "Cybertronians can use magic?!" Orion asked "Only decedents of the Nova Prime can, since Nova Prime was the first Prime to use magic only his children can use magic" Bluestreak said "Unfortunately the art of magic has been lost over the millenia ever since science has been our means of everyday life" Air Raid said "Now is not the time to dwell in the past guys" Scattershot said "We must look to the future and find a way to get the Ark up and running" "No ones answered my question yet" Orion said "Okay little guy, I'll tell you" Orion turned his attention to a white Autobot "Since Grimlocks curious about why where here I guess we should all tell you" Prowl started "After we jumping from planet to planet tracking down the Allspark" Jazz said "You guys where tracking the Allspark!?" Swoop said "Yeah Optimus was using the Matrix the track its energy signal" Sideswipe said "We jumped from Velecitron the Junkion via space bridge" Bluestreak said "Whats a space bridge?" "Its a machine that can open portals through time and space, transporting us to any location in the Galaxy or the one next to use" "Speaking of which where is Optimus?" Snarl asked Ironhide met his eyes with Grimlock. "I'm am curious, where is Optimus Prime?" "After we went through a malfunctioning space bridge Optimus along with Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Cliffjumper and Ratchet where Outside and where sent to some random location in this galaxy, we have not heard from them since" "Ohh" Grimlock said Even though they had a rivalry Grimlock knew that Optimus carried the Matrix of Leadership, and that he was supp to bring it back to Cybertron one day to fully restore it, so the fact that his fate was unknown did not set well. "So you guys really think the Allspark could be in this sector?" Sludge said "It could very well be on this planet!" Kup responded "Well lets put that on the to do list because even if it is on this planet, its useless since the Ark is half buried in dirt and out of fuel" Silverbolt pointed out "Not a problem this planet is packing RED energon" Swoop said "Did you say red energon? As in the energon that makes you super fast red energon?" Jetfire asked "Yes, theirs enough of this stuff to get us of this planet in two seconds" Swoop said "Okay I think I know what we should do, first we collect the energon, then we see if the Allspark is on this world, and finally get of this planet" Hound said "Okay but well need a leader" Jazz said "I nominate Grimlock" All optics where on the bot who made the suggestion, Scattershot "Why Grimlock? He should be the least Likely Candidate" Sideswipe said "Because he came out here to find us and went through the trouble of waking us all up" "And besides Grimlocks on his way to becoming a Prime" Amalgamous Prime said "Really when did that happen?" Ironhide said "When you guys left Cybertron" Even though Ironhide had known this member of thirteen for only a cycle he trusted his judgement, and Grimlock did go through all the work of waking them. "Alright I agree" Ironhide said proudly "Me too" Jazz said With both Autobot commanders in agreement their was no argue about who was now in command of the Autobots on Arion. "Okay boss whats the plan?" "Okay, first of all" Grimlock began "These ponies are not ready to behold us, so maintain vehicle form when outside the Ark, Second of all we need to start getting the Arks systems back online, thirdly we need to start transferring the red energon supply to the engines, better now then later, and finally we need to find clues as to whether the Allspark is on this planet" "Okay sounds like a plan to me" Hot Shot said "Any objections? No? then Roll Out!" The Autobots went to their stations and went to work repairing the Ark Kickback was about to sneak up on a pony when He had to call. "What is it Shockwave?" "Get back to the ship their something I need you all to see" "Fine!" A few minutes later. "What is this thing we have to see?" All the cons where in the bridge as their attention was turned to the monitor. Their was a white object in space being pursued by a larger purple meteor, nearing the planet. "What are those things?" Sharpshot asked "I don't know but the white one is emanating life signals while the meteor is inseminating Dark energon" Shockwave said "When while they get here?" Scrapper asked "Three days time" "So why did you call us here then" Kickback asked "To warn you all about this event which will soon come to pass, something doesn't rob me right about the dark energon meteor" _________________________________________________________________ Space The being comprised of Dark energon followed the spaceship to his intended destination "I must not allow those Primes to reach the planet and foil my plans" The robot said "Thunderwing promise's it"
