END GAME Part Two: THE BADLANDS

On the outlands of Haven, the Badlands are surging to life.

Megatronus stands with his brother Alpha Trion, the two as different as night and day. The picture of calm, the thinner Trion stands behind the bulwark that is his more physically inclined sibling, massive tome in hand. Optics and biolights aglow with concentration, he stands vulnerable and distracted as clawed shadows rage on either side of them both. Some come within arms-reach before they - and swaths of their fellows - are cut down by Megatronus' blade, pieces trailing burning cinders and ash.

The Prime Guardian of Entropy moves like a wraith, the shadows no match for his flame and fury - if it were not for the sheer numbers they have, replacing the fallen, the outcome of the battle would have already been assured.

Alpha Trion seems unfazed, the glowing gaze flicking briefly toward the camera with only a nod.

"I am a bit busy concentrating at the moment, but I think I've managed to establish a link to the network. Megatronus, if you'd please issue the call..."

Alpha Trion said, seemingly without moving; voice gone eerie and electronic as he used his various talents to call out, even while overseeing the field of battle. Faint, holographic icons can be seen flitting in front of his optics, across a map of the local area. Icons position themselves like pieces on a chess board, and the closest mark is obviously of Megatronus as he tears through the ranks of pawns.

"Marked of Megatronus, of Alpha Trion, and Liege Maximo - join us now on the field of battle! Our boundaries are besieged!"

Megatronus roared out, turning away from the fight long enough to address the camera.

"Come! Let us see what you are made of at long last! You will hold the line, or all shall Fall!"

Behind him, Alpha Trion gestured to the map, giving locations along the North and Western sides of Haven that needed the most attention, and sending coordinate pings through the network along with them.

"Report to any of these coordinates if you can join in the fight," he says to the camera, before turning back to Megatronus.

"Onyx has the Southern field well covered. The surge on the west flank is closing in on the Haven. We must move."

He then frowned, helm cocking slowly. The map hologram flickered rapidly as though searching for- and failing to find- something.

"...And where is Liege? He is not guarding his quadrant."

Megatronus snarled, a swing of his blade wreathing the area in flame.

"Liege! What's taking you so long?!"

The camera abruptly cuts out as as the two Primes teleport off.


Either Prime may be encountered on the field of battle.  Fight, hold the line, and buy time for the other groups!  The final battle is at hand!

"Skywarp! No! It's me! IT'S ME!"

It's no use. The purple jet dogs and dances around him, easily giving chase or teleporting to cut him off, shots tauntingly JUST missing him. And then the real taunts start - Weakling! Autobot sympathizer! Traitor! TRAITOR!

Thundercracker falters, pleading to no avail. And then his wingmate is joined by others.

Slipstream. Fracas. "White" Megatron. Swoop. Drill Boy. Even Barricade, impossibly - apparently he's gained flight mods. Crow and Teddie and Kay are clinging to his wings. A wisp of darkness slips through a crack under his canopy, and Four is ravaging the controls in his cockpit.

Help . . . oh, Primus, no . . . PLEASE!

When the forms of the monsters had changed, Lea just scowled. Some of the forms they took he recognized. Some he didn't. He'd be willing to admit that Luxord surprised him a little, but even that fell flat. Luxord was never that aggressive, and was more interested in games than destruction, unlike this doppleganger.

So Unicron was taking a page out of Zexion's book, was he? Whatever; Lea wasn't fooled. And continued to slice and burn through the suddenly less monstrous-looking monsters.

It seemed that someone was fooled though. Lea heard Thundercracker before he saw him, as usual. Except this time, it wasn't one of his signature sonic booms, but instead cries for help. The monsters in familiar forms were harrying the blue jet, trying to drive him to the ground.

"Thundercracker!", Lea yelled, hoping his voice would carry over wind and the noises of combat enough to be heard. "Don't let them fool you! It's a trick!" Lea launched a ball of fire at one of the larger robot-form creatures attacking the blue jet.
