You see, you have the formula to create Synthetic Energon, but we don\u2019t know where it is. We fear that your\u2026initiation has erased the formula from your mind, but we believe it\u2019s in some form of external data storage. Giving us the formula will be most valuable to us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd what\u2019s in it for me if I do?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhy, the honor of being the first of us to destroy the Autobots and their allies, especially your former friends!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDestruction\u2026yep! Destruction is always good!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI thought you would enjoy that pros-\u201d the lights then flickered, and the screen went dead. Megatron then tried to key in a few commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIs something wrong?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere must be a malfunction in main power!\u201d grunted Megatron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGee, hope it\u2019s under warranty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026Why don\u2019t you go see if the repair teams need help and find out how long this will take, hm?\u201d Megatron had already had enough of Override\u2019s snide remarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAll right, I\u2019ll get off your chassis. Override, HIGHTAIL!\u201d Override transformed and sped off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Knock-out and Scorponok were trying to deduce the problem so they could fix it. They heard someone transform and saw Override saunter into the room. \u201cBig M wants to know how long this is gonna take,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWell, tell him not to get his software in a snarl!\u201d growled Scorponok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe need to figure out what the slagging problem is, first!\u201d said Knock-out. He then pulled a panel off the wall and yelped. \u201cHey! Shouldn\u2019t there be a redactor modem here?!\u201d Scorponok looked at what Knock-out was pointing out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHey, yeah! There SHOULD!\u201d he confirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNo!\u201d breathed Override, sarcasm dripping from her voice. \u201cYou shock me, Scorponok!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMake yourself useful,\u201d hissed Knock-out, \u201cand find another redactor modem! It\u2019s a yellow microchip that should fit the hole here!\u201d Override sauntered off and left Scorponok and Knock-out to discuss how such a vital component was missing. As she walked, she pulled out the microchip Knock-out described from her subspace pocket, then crushed it. She then saw a tall stack of containers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHey! Boys! Think it\u2019s over here?!\u201d As they looked, Override pushed a container on the bottom, making the stack wobble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHey, hey, HEY!\u201d protested Scorponok as he and Knock-out walked to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWill you be careful?!\u201d supplied Knock-out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOh, I\u2019m being REAL careful!\u201d purred Override. \u201cSee, I\u2019m on THIS side and it\u2019s all gonna fall\u2026THAT WAY!\u201d She shoved the stack towards the two mechs! They tried to get away, but Scorponok\u2019s tail was buried first, then the rest of him. His claw tripped up Knock-out, knocking him to the ground and burying him as well. Override chuckled as she left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWHAT DID YOU TWO IDIOTS DO?!\u201d Megatron demanded of the unconscious Scorponok and Knock-out as he and Waspinator investigated the \u201caccident\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIdiotzzz do not rezzzpond,\u201d reported Waspinator. \u201cIdiotzzz are comatozzze.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGet them to the nearest CR chamber!\u201d ordered Megatron. Waspinator then started dragging them to the CR Chamber, grumbling once Megatron was out of earshot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRandom zzzoldier blowzzz up, Wazzzpinator zzzalvage! Wazzzpinator blowzzz up, NOBODY zzzalvage! Why univerzzze hate Wazzzpinator?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>When he found it, Waspinator dumped Scorponok and Knock-out into the CR chamber. \u201cZZZeriouzzzly, doezzz no one care about Wazzzpinator?! \u2026Okay, Wazzzpinator being unfair. Wazzzpinator DOEZZZ have friend in Terrorzzzaur. At leazzzt HE zzzalvage Wazzzpinator when Wazzzpinator blowzzz up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou do it way too often, for my taste,\u201d screeched Terrorsaur as he walked up to him. \u201cStill, you do the same for me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHey, Terrorzzzaur. How\u2019zzz trickzzz?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s good so far, just a little on edge. Call me paranoid, but I don\u2019t trust Override.\u201d Waspinator then thought about what Megatron told him earlier before the salvage operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMegatron DID zzzend her to help ZZZcorponok and Knock-out. \u2026You think-?\u201d Waspinator\u2019s question was interrupted by something swinging into his backside, scooping up Terrorsaur, and slamming them both into a wall! When it released them, they started flying into each other and into walls in a dazed fashion. All the while, Override smirked as she got some amusement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHeads up!\u201d she called before she left. Unbeknownst to her, Eggman and Morgaine were watching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo, that\u2019s the game, eh?\u201d chuckled Eggman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis might be our chance!\u201d replied Morgaine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Waspinator and Terrorsaur flew into and around the bridge in a crazed manner. \u201cPhazzze Fi-Fi-Five complete!\u201d called Waspinator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s time for Phase Six!\u201d cheered Terrorsaur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWaspinator! Terrorsaur!\u201d shouted Megatron. \u201cWhat are you two babbling about?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWazzzpinator?! Terrorzzzaur?!\u201d buzzed Waspinator. \u201cNegative-Negative-Negative! I am ZZZixzzzhot, Dezzzepticon Phazzze ZZZixer!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd you will address me as Gigatron, Master of the Cutter Beam!\u201d screeched Terrorsaur. Shockwave had to duck as she tried to puzzle out what was going on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026Sixshot? Gigatron?\u201d she asked. \u201cSixshot was a Xitran survivor and Six-changer. Gigatron also had ten modes. They\u2019re both offline, though.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThen it\u2019s clear,\u201d muttered Megatron, \u201cthat Waspinator and Terrorsaur are wacko.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWacko?!\u201d buzzed Waspinator. \u201cNo, Wonko! Wonko the ZZZane!\u201d He then proceeded to punch himself in the head, proving Megatron\u2019s statement as well as making him grimace, not sure how to process this whole incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Override sped through the corridors of the ship in alt-mode. She then came to a junction and stopped to try and decide which way to go next. Just then, Morgaine and Eggman appeared on opposite sides of her. \u201cWell, well, well!\u201d chuckled Eggman, \u201cmy dear, look who it is!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur most loyal friend!\u201d purred Morgaine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026Is that supposed to mean something?\u201d asked Override.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOh, don\u2019t even attempt to lie here, lady!\u201d snarled Eggman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re trying to destabilize this operation,\u201d continued Morgaine, \u201cso you can overthrow Megatron and take over! Well, know this;\u2026we like this plan!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo, here\u2019s the deal: you and us as equal partners!\u201d suggested Eggman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026No, HERE\u2019S the deal!\u201d Override then transformed and grabbed the two humans, tightening her grip to grab their attention. \u201cYou\u2019re gonna keep your big mouths shut and do EXACTLY what I tell you! One false move and you\u2019re a new delicacy: Fleshling Caviar! GET IT?!\u201d She then dropped them to the floor. They groaned in pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGot it!\u201d replied Eggman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGood!\u201d Override then stormed off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Megatron brought the security cameras online to try and figure out what was going on. The camera then caught Tarantulas twitching in a web! \u201cWhat in-?!\u201d yelped Megatron. He then got a medical reading. \u201cPoisoned?!\u201d That did it! His face went as red as his optics as he grabbed a radio and activated ship-wide comms. \u201cWHAT\u2019S GOING ON AROUND HERE?!\u201d he bellowed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Megatron gave Override a tour of the base, they entered the bridge. \u201cNice little setup you got here, Chief,\u201d chuckled Override. \u201cI think I\u2019m gonna feel right at home!\u201d \u201cI hate to have to cut the tour short,\u201d remarked Megatron, \u201cbut we have business to discuss.
