I severely underestimated Metroplex and his people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHow soon can we begin evacuations?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWithin the mega-cycle.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cExcellent! Keep up the good work!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWill do!\u201d Megatron then headed off to meet with the rest of the Decepticons in christening the new Decepticon ship. He hopped onto a teleporter pad and was beamed into the ship\u2019s bridge. It was certainly more spacious than the <em>Nemesis<\/em>. Thundercracker, Shockwave, Strika, Waspinator, and Ransack stood by. Megatron then took up a bottle of Engex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDecepticons, we lost a magnificent ship,\u201d he began, \u201cbut we gained a new one. However, much like our previous one, this ship is more than engines and weapons and computers. It\u2019s our home as we journey through the stars and fight against Starscream\u2019s forces. If we treat it right, it will always take us home. With that,\u201d he raised the bottle, \u201cI hereby christen this ship DWS-4120-A, the newest ship to carry the name\u2026<em>Nemesis<\/em>!\u201d He smashed the bottle on the wall and it broke. Everyone clapped after that. Just then, Ravage came onto the bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLord Megatron, the Space Bridge is complete,\u201d he reported. Thundercracker whistled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat was fast,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAre the evacuation ships being boarded?\u201d asked Megatron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey were already boarded while the Space Bridge was being rebuilt, my Lord,\u201d replied Ravage. \u201cWe\u2019re ready to go at your discretion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHas Optimus been informed?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMetroplex already reported the news to him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026Then it\u2019s time to stop stalling and evacuate Cybertron. I trust we know the first planet?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGigantion, because it\u2019s the closest.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGood. Set the Space Bridge for Gigantion.\u201d Ravage saluted, then gave the necessary orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The massive starships housing Cybertronian refugees hovered in the air as the Space Bridge opened a portal to Gigantion. The first three were waved through. Once all three went through the portal, it closed as the coordinates changed to Velocitron. The portal reopened and four ships went through. The coordinates were then changed to Animatros and allowed four ships through, then three to Nebulos, and the last two were set for Mobius. As the last two went through, the Cybertronian fleet, led by the <em>Ark<\/em> and the new <em>Nemesis<\/em>, were set to follow them when\u2026 \u201cOptimus!\u201d called Cliffjumper on the <em>Ark<\/em>. \u201cUp in the sky!\u201d A golden cloud of light was approaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTornedron!\u201d whispered Optimus in fear. Just then, Galen appeared on the <em>Ark<\/em>\u2019s bridge via a teleport beam. \u201cGalen, wha-?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat wasn\u2019t me!\u201d yelped Galen. \u201cFortress did that!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Metrotitans are hailing the fleet!\u201d called Prowl. \u201cAudio only!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPut it through!\u201d The four Metrotitans then appeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGalen, if you\u2019re receiving this,\u201d began Fortress, \u201cit means I don\u2019t want you to come with me on this as it\u2019s a suicide mission.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith Tornedron in our sights, we can\u2019t allow any of you to die at Tornedron\u2019s whim,\u201d continued Scorponok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOnce the fleet is through, we\u2019re closing it so we can fight Tornedron head on,\u201d supplied Metroplex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re aware that we can\u2019t destroy him,\u201d rumbled Trypticon, \u201cbut we CAN slow him down so you all can make your case to the Galactic Council.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGalen, live well and keep your fellow Nebulans safe,\u201d wished Fortress. \u201cYou honored Cerebros and I with your friendship.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cQuickmix, it is my honor and privilege to name you the new Megalo Convoy,\u201d bid Metroplex. \u201cLead our planet wisely.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDecepticons, I know our relationship was rocky,\u201d continued Scorponok, \u201cbut being small DID give me a new perspective. To you, my fellow Predacons, I wish you success in your new partnership with the Maximals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd Lord Megatron, if you\u2019re thinking of telling me to come with you,\u201d finished Trypticon, \u201cI\u2019m sorry, but I must disobey. I was foolish enough to follow Starscream\u2019s orders, so I must atone. Lead the Decepticons well.\u201d The call then ended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Metroplex keyed in a command on his massive wrist computer and the Cybertronian fleet then went through the portal on automatic. Once they were through, the portal shut down and the Metrotitans looked to the sky. \u201cNever thought I\u2019d be fighting side-by-side with Autobots,\u201d muttered Trypticon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat about side-by-side with fellow Metrotitans?\u201d asked Metroplex. Trypticon looked to his Autobot rival, then smiled as much as his lizard-like mouth would allow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYeah, I can work with that.\u201d Tornedron then hovered over the Metrotitans and the face of a corporeal Vok appeared in the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhere are your people?!\u201d demanded Tornedron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBeyond your reach!\u201d snarled Scorponok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNothing is beyond Tornedron\u2019s reach!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTornedron!\u201d called Fortress. \u201cI demand that you leave this planet and surrender to us immediately!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou cannot make demands of ME!\u201d Tornedron then shrank down and made itself into the image of a massive, winged-lizard the size of a Metrotitan! The Metrotitans then pulled out their Cyber Keys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNever thought I\u2019d use this again,\u201d muttered Metroplex. He then looked to his comrades, then they flicked their Keys to the sky and summoned energy from their Sparks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCYBER KEY POWER!\u201d they all shouted as they fired their energies into the Keys. The Keys then entered the slots on their backsides, then turned, unlocking their arsenals. Fortress raised his hands so the guns tucked away in his hips could swing out. Scorponok\u2019s tail stinger and shoulder weapons leveled themselves at Tornedron, Metroplex\u2019s shoulders deployed twin-barreled guns, and a set of shoulder cannons swung up from Trypticon\u2019s back while a massive cannon sprouted from between his optics. They all leveled their guns at Tornedron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFIRE!\u201d shouted Fortress Maximus. The four fired their weapons, but Tornedron simply absorbed the energy and grew bigger. It then grabbed the four in one clawed fist and drained them of their energy, thus extinguishing their Sparks. It then released its grip and the four Metrotitans fell, offline and gunmetal-gray. Tornedron then smirked as it looked at the corpses. It returned to its cloud form just as Unicron appeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTermination sequence has-\u201d Tornedron was then assaulted with a mental attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFOOL!\u201d roared Unicron. \u201cYOU LET THEM ESCAPE! THE METROTITANS WERE NOTHING MORE THAN A DISTRACTION!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cENOUGH!\u201d boomed a voice. Tornedron\u2019s torture then stopped, and it recovered as Unicron pointed his maw at the equator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo, you\u2019ve finally awakened, Primus!\u201d he growled. As the voice spoke, lights from inside Cybertron\u2019s Sonic Canyons glowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYes, I am awake,\u201d replied the voice, Primus. \u201cAnd Starscream and his fellows are still within the area. Vector Sigma has informed the Transformers of our combined past, so we must go to Voksphere.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am still unable to consume Voksphere!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTornedron will, once we alter him a bit.\u201d Starscream\u2019s War-world then appeared between all three beings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy Lords, if we are to achieve any victory,\u201d he called over the comms, \u201cwe MUST destroy the Transformers! They\u2019re sure to gather allies!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTornedron will follow you to them,\u201d ordered Primus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRendezvous with us once they are gone,\u201d commanded Unicron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAt once, My Lords,\u201d replied Starscream. The War-world and Tornedron then headed off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cScorponok, how go the Space Bridge repairs?\u201d Megatron asked the Metrotitan. \u201cSwimmingly, my Lord, especially with the Gigantians\u2019 help.
