Transformers: Darkness of Equestriaby mirageandjazz11ChaptersPrologue Vinyl meet TailgateChapter 1: AttackChapter 2: Lost LightPrologue Vinyl meet TailgateIt was just a normal evening back at Vinyl Scratch's house in Ponyville after a long exhausting day of parties. Jeez, what's with parties these days? They aren't even fun anymore with all the booze and such. No one can even stand up, Vinyl thought to herself. Speaking of parties, she started thinking about a certain.........autobot who really could party. "Blaster" she sighed to herself remembering the big red music loving autobot who even helped upgrade her bass cannon. "No, stop it why can't I just forget about him?!" she screamed in her mind as the painful memories of visiting his statue after he disappeared along with the rest of the transformers started to rush back to her head. After sitting for awhile she got up to find the last thing cybertronian in Equestria on her table. Blaster's gift to her: a pair of walkie-talkies that were meant to be used so that Blaster could talk to her even when he was away. The reason they did not get sucked up into the portal with all the other cybetronian related objects, is because it was mostly made from materials on the planet. Only 2% of the entire thing was alien. Vinyl just stared at it for awhile and fell asleep. *tsk* *Groan* Vinyl opened one eye and curiously looked around the room to find the source of the noise. It went quiet again, so she decided to go back to sleep. " *tsk* IS *bzzzzt* ANYONE THERE? *static* Someone help me.......... Prime! She snapped her eyes open and looked at her walkie-talkies, both were there so why was there someone talking and where did she remember the word Prime from? "Primus I'm leaking over here HELLO!" "Prime...Primus? what words is this po-...wait that's not how a pony sounds like... is that an Autobot?" pressing the button on the talkie she asked: "Um....Hi can you hear me? Are you an Autobot by any chance?" "Yes, of course I am! What do you have a malfunction or something? Ugh Never mind... Sorry anyways please get me Sentinel Prime or Rodimus Prime ASAP. I have been compromised: Bumper and Fastback are dead and the Decepticons have caught me on some weird planet I've never been on before I need backup. I have sent out a beacon so you can track me." "I'm sorry... but I am not an Autobot I am a pony. My name is Vinyl Scratch." "Wait... a pony?! No..... no no no this is not supposed to happen...Oh scrap. I know where I am now. Quick, do you know a unicorn named Twilight Sparkle?" Confused she answered "Yes, but why? And who are you?" "My name is Tailgate, Autobot Bomb Disposal and scout and to answer your first question: if I am right there is going to be another war on Equestria soon and you need to tell her to prepare for Rodi-ARGHHHHHH!" There was nothing there now but static. Vinyl, who was now scared by all of this news and also the abrupt cut off from Tailgate, she did the only thing she could do at this point. She went to Ponyville's library. _________________________________________ Outside Everfree Forest "ARGHHHHHH!" Tailgate screamed as he was stabbed in the back, thrown across the air (landing painfully on his face), and cut off from the pony Vinyl Scratch. Turning around, he looked at his attackers. They were the D.M.P.T: Decepticon Military Patrol Team. Bombshock was the leader: tall green and blue with a massive cannon on his back. Which made sense since he is a tank. Tracer the helicopter, second in command and his attacker. He was dark with blades on his left arm dripping with Tailgate's energon, no face except two yellow eyes. Dropshot, the blue, trigger happy dimwitted demo specialist. Tailgate pulled out his Neutron assault rifle but his weapon randomly exploded. He sat confused for a moment before spotting the last member of the D.M.P.T... Growl, the red, sadistic sniper with his rifle attached to his right arm, staring at him with his red visor while grinning evilly, blaster smoking. "Oh how it pains me to see you so wounded...so weak... Autobot," Growl said before laughing like a hyena. Bombshock, wanting to make this quick, gave Growl a look to make him shut up. "So, Tailgate right? Been awhile. You got any last words? I promise to make it a quick, painless death." Tailgate was about to give an insult before stopping to think how pointless it would be. He was doomed. "Sure, yeah. Where is your master?" he asked. He hoped he could record it into his backup drives. When the autobots find him, they will hopefully find where...Nemesis was. However, Bombshock was not a moron despite stupidity being a common trait in decepticon tanks. "That is not of your concern scrap heap," he spoke drawing a sword, optics glowing crimson. Tailgate in his final moments took time to make a message. "Arcee... I am sorry. Forgive me for going alone on this insane mission." And then there was darkness. ________________________________________ I stared at the corpse of the former Autobot scout and bomb disposal his armor turning from white and blue to a dark grey confirming he was dead and sighed just wishing for the war to be over. "Growl no!" hearing a shot I turning around at the source of the sound I saw Tracer pinning Growl down I also noticed that Growl's blaster was smoking "By Primus Growl is trying to kill me all you ever do?" I asked giving him an annoyed look "Bombshock I promise by the Allspark that one day I will smelt you!" Growl......growled. "Cool story just like the day I become the next Prime Shockimus" I smirked while I taunted him "I don't get it?" Growl acting as stupid as he usually is. "Didn't think you would... Hey Dropshot!" "Oh yeeees our mighty leader Bombster?" "First of all quit it and two contact the boss tell him we hunted Tailgate, Bumper and Fastback down and terminated them" "Of course anything else?" Dropshot eagerly asked "Tell him its time to spring the trap and when he orders us too we will join the Decpticon Powermasters and Headmasters and destroy Ponyville" I ordered the solider "Really! you mean it I can shoot something now?!" I gave him a smirk "Yes I am serious we can finally begin to destroy the autobots once and for all and also that impostor Galvatron and his forces all under the mighty leadership of Nemesis Prime!" _________________________________________ Chapter 1: AttackLocation: Golden Oak Library, Ponyville, Equestria "It's 5:30! Shops closed!" Twilight announced to everypony who was still in the library. Everypony started to leave except for a couple of ponies who were checking out some books. The last customer was a familiar orange colt, his blue mane gelled back. She smiled at the customer and greeted him. "Hey Flash, you on break?" Smiling back he answered, "Yeah I always get the 7th off unless its urgent. Then I get a week long vacation." "You looking for anything in particular or just came here to visit?" "Both, actually... do you have the...um...well..." "Yes?" Twilight thought it was weird that he was delaying in telling her the title of a book. But she was caught off guard by what he said next. "Do you have the Transformers Encyclopedia series?" Twilight stood there for a moment, not expecting Flash to want to read those documentaries telling the events from five years ago. It also had a bio of every Autobot and Decepticon they knew, and even a few they did not know personally. For example, this bot named Prowl, who was spoken about amongst other Autobots, who was a prick and shares Jazz's place as Optimus Prime's second in command. That's all anypony knew about him. Optimus the Autobot she missed most... No, now is not the time to think about him, Twilight thought, and snapped back to reality. "Yes we do. It's in the back. Spike!" Her assistant dashed downstairs, grabbed a ladder, and went to go find the books. "So, Flash, I'm going to a party Pinkie Pie invited me to. Do you want to come and say hi to everyone?" Twilight asked, blushing. Flash's smiled vanished and said, "Kinda wish I could but I have to go back to work at six and it takes 20 minutes to get to my class. Sorry." Twilight raised an eyebrow. She thought Flash already graduated guard school three years ago. "I thought you said you already graduated. Why are you going to school still?" Suddenly, Flash realized he made it sound like he failed, and that he made Twilight upset, so he gave his explanation. "Yeah, I already passed and became a guard but I'm taking extra classes so I can become a guard at the Canterlot Castle instead of Crystal Castle, and one of the things that is required to know is how to deal with an alien attack. So far, the only attacks that have happened are the two times the Transformers were here, so...uh, yeah. Sorry if I made you upset or anything like that. All the other libraries had all of the copies sold out, so this was the only place left I could get them." Twilight then realized that Flash really was sorry, but before she could talk to him any more, Spike ran up to her holding two big books. "Thank you Spike" the little purple dragon nodded, ran upstairs, and jumped out the window. "Guess he still doesn't like me," Flash said, disappointed that Spike was still hostile towards him. Twilight nodded and also said "Yup, and he still likes to call you 'Brad the Waifu Stealer'." "Twilight, I'm pretty sure I have never taken a....Waifu, or whatever that is." Flash looked annoyed now. "It's a type of slang for wife." "Oh...alright then." "Um...okay so that's Transformers: Fall of Equestria and Equestria's Darkest Hour. Due date is in two weeks," Twilight said, giving him the books. "Thanks. I have to go now. Don't want to be late," he flashed a smile and left the library, leaving Twilight alone so she could finally close the library and start to get ready for Pinkie Pie's party. Then Spike came downstairs. "Is he gone?" Spike questioned. Twilight just gave him a disappointed look "Spike, you should have gotten over this by now." "I don't like him at all," Spike said while he avoided eye contact. "Look, Spike, we aren't in a relationship or anything, okay? So let's just go to Pinkie Pie's party," Twilight said, trying to make Spike understand. "Not yet," Spike muttered under his breath as they left the library to go over to Pinkie Pie's house where she and the rest of her best friends were. On their way they saw somepony running around and panicking while shouting: "Has anypony seen Twilight Sparkle anywhere?" Twilight and Spike went to go see what was wrong when the pony crashed into them. After Twilight recovered, she turned to the pony, and recognized as Vinyl Scratch, more commonly known as DJ Pon-3. They walked up to the still dazed pony. "Hey, are you alright?" Twilight asked the mare. They looked at each other for a moment before Vinyl's eyes widened, and she started panicking. She tried to talk to her but she was too scared to speak. Twilight put her hoof on Vinyl's shoulder and calmly spoke to her. "Okay, just calm down take a deep breath. Hold it for five seconds and breathe out. Tell me what happened." Vinyl did exactly what Twilight told her to do. She told her story of how her radios from the Autobot Blaster picked up another Autobot's distress signal, and how he was cut off, and that she was to pass a message from him to Twilight Sparkle. Twilight listened to Vinyl and was both shocked and frightened. Could Equestria be once again involved with the Autobot and Decpticon war for a third time? After a few moments of taking all the news in, she asked Vinyl if there was anything else. Vinyl nodded and told her the last part of the message. "Tailgate, the Autobot, said to wait for someone. I think he meant an autobot, but he could barely say his name. By the time I lost contact with him, all I heard was "Rodi". But at first, he mistook me as an Autobot and asked to either alert a Sentinel Prime or a Rodimus Prime. So most likely he was trying to say Rodimus." Twilight thought about what Vinyl had said. She had never heard the name, but it felt familiar. "No it can't have to do anything with..." BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM _________________________________________ location: Ponyville, Equestria Stepping out of a portal similar to a space bridge (except with it being red and blazing, it looked more like a gate to Hell) was a giant metal being, one that Equestria has not seen for five years. The being was powerful, tall, and evil looking with its black armor with a long pipe on each shoulder, red glowing lights, and eyes that burned with a menacing dark crimson glow. His name was Nemesis Prime, leader of a new, small, but powerful group of Decepticons. He was not loyal to Galvatron, the new leader of the Decepticon empire, but instead, he and his followers believed that they were the only remaining Decepticons left to destroy the Autobots. Anyone else was a disgrace. Following him out of the portal was a small group of Decepticons, the D.M.P.T, one of the first to join Nemesis Prime's cause. They consisted of Bombshock, the leader, Tracer, the second in command, Dropshot, the demo specialist, and Growl, the team sniper. Then the rest of the strike team came out; the Powermasters and Headmasters. The Powermasters, Dreadwind and Darkwing, were two of the four founding members of this group along with Nemesis Prime himself. They used a rare technology called Energon Power Cores which gave them a tremendous power boost. In the beginning, there were only eight of them. Now there are only five left, but only four of them are on Nemesis's side. They also have the power to combine in jet mode to become Darkwind, a powerful jet that, combined with the two Powermaster's power cores, are extremely dangerous. They are two of his three most trusted lieutenants. The Headmasters, Fangry and Weirdwolf, on the other hand, are the newest members on Nemesis's team. They are the first of a prototype technology that allows any minicon to become the head of a bigger, stronger robot that can feel no pain. Their biggest flaw, however, is the fact that their heads are a major weakness. Nemesis Prime looked at each one of them and nodded. He transformed his arm into a pathblaster, aimed at a building and fired, completely destroying the structure. Watching the remains burn, while ponies ran screaming, terrified at the group of Decepticons, he raised his hand and gave a signal. "DECEPTICONS ATTACK!" _________________________________________ "Don't call me an Autobot or I'll take your face!" Once a member of an elite Autobot military unit, Bombshock committed an act of betrayal that attracted the attention of the Decepticons. Despite this he still has something most Decepticons don't have anymore honor and he respects the enemy and some Autobots still think that he can can one day rejoin them even up to this day. He leads the Military Patrol well, and he doesn't seem to mind that all three of his teammates are plotting against him. They want a fight, and fighting's all he's good at. And when he gets into the heat of battle, even the destruction of his enemies won't stop him. Sometimes, he won't stop fighting until his bombs have blown most of himself apart. Author's Note Unlike JDprime's stories my chapters are going to be shorter in comparison but to make up for it there will be lots of chapters at least enough to have bios for every important character. people that are worried about Flash he is NOT a main character after this chapter he will only appear a few more times Chapter 2: Lost LightSo i have decided to release this chapter because i thought it would do no good laying it around and collecting dust. It is not proofread nor is it even finished this is like about either a quarter or a half of what this chapter was going to be If anyone is interested to continue/pick up this story message me But this will be my last chapter unless someone else wants to finish it. ___________________________________________________________________ Time: 2 Earth hours ago Location: Autobot city, Canada, Earth Five years ago after the Autobots and Decepticons were sucked in the portal on Equestria triggered by the Crystal Heart during the final battle of the Crystal Empire both the Decpticons and the Autobots were transported to the dead Transformers world of Cybertron. Well most of them anyways The Dinobots, the Combaticons, Trypticon's corpse and the other deceased Decepticons remains were nowhere to be found, Autobots Perceptor, Wheeljack, and the Decepticon Shockwave finally deduced that they were teleported to either the past, the future, an alternate dimension or just simply to another part of the universe, either way they would have a very slim chance of seeing them again. The Autobots and Decepticons agreed to have a three year truce and during the time the Decpticons claimed Cybertron while the Autobots were able to find Metroplex and Broadside and build a one time use space bridge using the ancient tech inside of the giants to travel to Earth they appealed to the Humans of the planet by offering them protection, technology, knowledge and in return they were allowed to establish 3 bases on the planet which are made from the three Autobot titans Metroplex, Omega Supreme who has been knocked into stasis due to dark energon poisoning, and Broadside. The Iacon : Broadside converted into a mobile base in Africa. Omega District: Omega supreme converted into a tower which doubles as a space shuttle and is guarded by a giant tank, it is located on Earth's moon. Autobot City: Metroplex's city form which has been moved to Canada and is also the main Autobot base while a fraction of Metroplex's mind was moved into a shell which was named Scamper. The Autobots tried to prepare themselves for the battles they knew were coming once the truce ended but alas it was not to be easy the Decepticons made a surprise attack by sneaking to Autobot City via stealing and killing the crew of an energon transport ship. All but one of the ship's crew were killed the survivor a young Elite Guard recruit named Smokescreen who had faked death by tricking the Decepticons with a unique device he was gifted with known as the phase shiftier which granted him the ability to pass through solid objects and vice-versa. The battle started against the Autobots favor and by the end of the first day more then half of the bots stationed there were killed though it was not a total lost as the Autobots communication specialist Blaster was able to sent out a message to the the Moon base which upon receiving the Autobot leader Optimus Prime led reinforcements to retake Autobot city and confronted the Decepticon leader Megatron for a final battle for the unfortunately final time while Optimus was able to severely damage Megatron to the point where the Decepticons were forced to retreat he was like wise put into critical condition and shortly after the battle he died of his wounds but not before naming one of his oldest friends Sentinel Minor the new leader. Sentinel accepting this responsibility took over the mantle of Prime he led the Autobots to Cybertron to help defend the planet from a menace known as Unicron and a Decepticon named Galvatron who claimed to be the new Leader of the Decepticons in the ensuring chaos Sentinel lost the Matrix of Leadership and it was then another Prime was revealed in the Autobot known as Hotrod who used the Matrix to destroy Unicron and bring Cybertron back to life and became Rodimus Prime. After the battle the Autobots were finally able to retake Cybertron and send the Decepticons into retreat on Mars. After their victory the Matrix split in two and both Rodimus and Sentinel took a half and dedicated themselves to rebuild Cybertron for Optimus Prime and all of the fallen Autobots. ___________________________________________________________________ " That's the last one sir! " said Bulkhead the head of the Autobot construction team as the last block was placed, a group of Autobots and Humans starred at awe at the finished Autobot city museum among them was Rodimus Prime one of the two current Autobot leaders. " Nice job Bulkhead you and your team did a great job now visiting humans can come here if they want to know anything about us " Rodimus turned towards the bot beside him his mentor Ultra Magnus " What do you think Mags? " The blue older bot inspected the museum for a moment and turned back to him " Why here and not in some Human city like New York? " Ultra Magnus asked " Because its a more joyful experience to actually witness us walking around then pictures. " " I suppose so but they are in a greater risk due to possible Decepticon attacks and also the fact we could step on them." " That's why we have guard rails and paths to avoid such a thing from happening plus we have not even seen the Decepticons since we kicked their tailpipes out of Cybertron you should lighten up and not be so focused on the worst sometime Mags! " Ultra Magnus's only response was a sigh as he transformed and went to the command bridge while Rodimus followed shortly behind as they got to the bridge they took notice of a conversation between a few of the Autobot Elite Guard " Have you been able to track Crosscut and Roadbuster's ship Hotshot? " " No I'm sorry Dion sir I just can't their gone I'm sorry! " " Hotshot can you please stop apologizing for everything that's not your fault? " The rookie elite guardsmen nodded nervously and got back to work while Dion the Head Instructor of the Elite Guard approached Rodimus and Magnus with a few Guard members including senior officer Prowl, the chatty as ever Bluestreak, escape artist Getaway, theoretician Skids, and another rookie known as Smokescreen " Hey Roddy how goes the tourist attraction any one get squished yet? " piped Bluestreak as he smirked Rodimus rolled his optics replying " Well for your information Bluestreak it actually went well...and don't call me Roddy. " " Whatever you say Rodster " Bluestreak replied Rodimus ignored his insult and turned to Dion " Does Sentinel need anything? " Dion nodded " Yeah in fact he told me to get you so go report to the command bridge he has a mission for you see you later " " Your not coming? " Ultra Magnus asked " Nah I got to monitor Hotshot over there and help find Crosscut and Roadbuster their ship vanished when they went on some mission Sentinel gave them. " Rodimus acknowledged him and the small group went ahead to the bridge on the way there they were greeted by other Autobots and when they finally got to the main command station Rodimus told everyone to wait there as he got closer he saw Sentinel arguing with his adviser Chromedome over the missing ship. " I told you we should of sent them with backup " " And I told you Chromedome that we would've attracted Galvatron's attention and the Decepticons would have attacked that planet. " " Well we probably attracted that freak anyways and we promised we would never go to that planet again and bothered them. " " Never stopped Optimus from going there again " " That was different they had no idea they would end up there for a second time " " We have been signing truces with the other planets why not this one? " " You weren't there Sentinel you wouldn't understand " " You were not there either Chromedome. " Rodimus decided to speak up and when Sentinel noticed him he waved Chromdome off telling him to talk about it later Chromedome gave Sentinel a glare as he left the room as the two Primes stood there alone Sentinel decided to break the silence. " So Rodimus I assume everything went well for the new museum? " Yes Sir everything is coming across smoothly. " " Please Rodimus no need for formalities call me Sentinel " " Yes Si-I mean Sentinel anyways you need me for a mission " " Affirmative as you know already I had sent Crosscut on a mission to go sign a treaty with a nearby planet i sent Roadbuster with him but they just vanished without a trace " Sentinel explained in a tone that suggested he was not telling the whole story. " So you think the Cons got them? " Rodimus questioned Sentinel nodded with a worried face " Maybe but Roadbuster is one of the best pilots I know if they got him they can get anyone so it's really hard to decide if I should send you or not but I believe you may know this planet. " Sentinel went to the holo board and put up a holographic map of the milky way he zoomed on a specific planet and at first Rodimus just looked at it dumbfound but his jaw dropped when the planet's name showed up Equestria " By the Thirteen this can not be why would they disappear there? " " I don't know Rodimus but that is not the only thing that's up with this planet I also received a message this morning from someone." " Do you know who it was or what he wanted? " " Who he is no he was in the shadows the entire time during the video but he referenced himself as Nemesis for what he wants yes but you should see the video yourself. " Sentinel pressed a button on the holo board and the rooms lights dimmed as the entire wall was replaced by a video with a dark shape and all Rodimus could see was two crimson optics and then there was a voice that one could mistake for death itself. " Hello false Primes my name is Nemesis the true leader of the Decepticons we have been operating in secret for 2 years now since the Decepticons have started to fall but I have since begun to rebuild the empire to its former glory! " Rodimus smirked " Someone sure has problem with Galvs " Nemesis continued" You might be wondering why I have contacted you well here is the deal I want you to come here to Equestria or do you want the Equines and your Autobot negotiators to end like these three spys? " If Rodimus could throw up he would as Nemesis moved out of the way and behind him hanging from the ceiling like a hunter's trophies were the lifeless forms of Bumper, Fastback and much to his horror Tailgate and beside them pinned to the wall beaten and wounded were the still living Crosscut and Roadbuster. ___________________________________________________________________ Rodimus Prime: While still headstrong and stubborn like he was before he seems to suffer from a severe lack of confidence, often doubting his own decisions and expressing distress over his position as an Autobot leader. Of course, much of this comes from comparisons with his former commander Optimus Prime—and let's face it, shoes-to-be-filled just don't get much bigger than that.
Prologue Vinyl meet TailgateIt was just a normal evening back at Vinyl Scratch's house in Ponyville after a long exhausting day of parties. Jeez, what's with parties these days? They aren't even fun anymore with all the booze and such. No one can even stand up, Vinyl thought to herself.

Tailgate screamed as he was stabbed in the back, thrown across the air (landing painfully on his face), and cut off from the pony Vinyl Scratch. Turning around, he looked at his attackers. They were the D.M.P.T: Decepticon Military Patrol Team. Bombshock was the leader: tall green and blue with a massive cannon on his back. Which made sense since he is a tank. Tracer the helicopter, second in command and his attacker. He was dark with blades on his left arm dripping with Tailgate's energon, no face except two yellow eyes.

"Yeah, I already passed and became a guard but I'm taking extra classes so I can become a guard at the Canterlot Castle instead of Crystal Castle, and one of the things that is required to know is how to deal with an alien attack. So far, the only attacks that have happened are the two times the Transformers were here, so...uh, yeah. Sorry if I made you upset or anything like that. All the other libraries had all of the copies sold out, so this was the only place left I could get them." Twilight then realized that Flash really was sorry, but before she could talk to him any more, Spike ran up to her holding two big books. "Thank you Spike" the little purple dragon nodded, ran upstairs, and jumped out the window. "Guess he still doesn't like me," Flash said, disappointed that Spike was still hostile towards him. Twilight nodded and also said "Yup, and he still likes to call you 'Brad the Waifu Stealer'." "Twilight, I'm pretty sure I have never taken a....Waifu, or whatever that is." Flash looked annoyed now. "It's a type of slang for wife." "Oh...alright then." "Um...okay so that's Transformers: Fall of Equestria and Equestria's Darkest Hour. Due date is in two weeks," Twilight said, giving him the books. "Thanks. I have to go now. Don't want to be late," he flashed a smile and left the library, leaving Twilight alone so she could finally close the library and start to get ready for Pinkie Pie's party. Then Spike came downstairs. "Is he gone?" Spike questioned. Twilight just gave him a disappointed look "Spike, you should have gotten over this by now." "I don't like him at all," Spike said while he avoided eye contact. "Look, Spike, we aren't in a relationship or anything, okay? So let's just go to Pinkie Pie's party," Twilight said, trying to make Spike understand. "Not yet," Spike muttered under his breath as they left the library to go over to Pinkie Pie's house where she and the rest of her best friends were. On their way they saw somepony running around and panicking while shouting: "Has anypony seen Twilight Sparkle anywhere?" Twilight and Spike went to go see what was wrong when the pony crashed into them. After Twilight recovered, she turned to the pony, and recognized as Vinyl Scratch, more commonly known as DJ Pon-3. They walked up to the still dazed pony. "Hey, are you alright?" Twilight asked the mare. They looked at each other for a moment before Vinyl's eyes widened, and she started panicking. She tried to talk to her but she was too scared to speak. Twilight put her hoof on Vinyl's shoulder and calmly spoke to her. "Okay, just calm down take a deep breath. Hold it for five seconds and breathe out. Tell me what happened." Vinyl did exactly what Twilight told her to do. She told her story of how her radios from the Autobot Blaster picked up another Autobot's distress signal, and how he was cut off, and that she was to pass a message from him to Twilight Sparkle. Twilight listened to Vinyl and was both shocked and frightened. Could Equestria be once again involved with the Autobot and Decpticon war for a third time? After a few moments of taking all the news in, she asked Vinyl if there was anything else. Vinyl nodded and told her the last part of the message. "Tailgate, the Autobot, said to wait for someone. I think he meant an autobot, but he could barely say his name. By the time I lost contact with him, all I heard was "Rodi". But at first, he mistook me as an Autobot and asked to either alert a Sentinel Prime or a Rodimus Prime. So most likely he was trying to say Rodimus." Twilight thought about what Vinyl had said. She had never heard the name, but it felt familiar. "No it can't have to do anything with..." BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM _________________________________________ location: Ponyville, Equestria Stepping out of a portal similar to a space bridge (except with it being red and blazing, it looked more like a gate to Hell) was a giant metal being, one that Equestria has not seen for five years. The being was powerful, tall, and evil looking with its black armor with a long pipe on each shoulder, red glowing lights, and eyes that burned with a menacing dark crimson glow. His name was Nemesis Prime, leader of a new, small, but powerful group of Decepticons. He was not loyal to Galvatron, the new leader of the Decepticon empire, but instead, he and his followers believed that they were the only remaining Decepticons left to destroy the Autobots. Anyone else was a disgrace. Following him out of the portal was a small group of Decepticons, the D.M.P.T, one of the first to join Nemesis Prime's cause. They consisted of Bombshock, the leader, Tracer, the second in command, Dropshot, the demo specialist, and Growl, the team sniper. Then the rest of the strike team came out; the Powermasters and Headmasters. The Powermasters, Dreadwind and Darkwing, were two of the four founding members of this group along with Nemesis Prime himself. They used a rare technology called Energon Power Cores which gave them a tremendous power boost. In the beginning, there were only eight of them. Now there are only five left, but only four of them are on Nemesis's side. They also have the power to combine in jet mode to become Darkwind, a powerful jet that, combined with the two Powermaster's power cores, are extremely dangerous. They are two of his three most trusted lieutenants. The Headmasters, Fangry and Weirdwolf, on the other hand, are the newest members on Nemesis's team. They are the first of a prototype technology that allows any minicon to become the head of a bigger, stronger robot that can feel no pain. Their biggest flaw, however, is the fact that their heads are a major weakness. Nemesis Prime looked at each one of them and nodded. He transformed his arm into a pathblaster, aimed at a building and fired, completely destroying the structure. Watching the remains burn, while ponies ran screaming, terrified at the group of Decepticons, he raised his hand and gave a signal. "DECEPTICONS ATTACK!" _________________________________________ "Don't call me an Autobot or I'll take your face!" Once a member of an elite Autobot military unit, Bombshock committed an act of betrayal that attracted the attention of the Decepticons. Despite this he still has something most Decepticons don't have anymore honor and he respects the enemy and some Autobots still think that he can can one day rejoin them even up to this day. He leads the Military Patrol well, and he doesn't seem to mind that all three of his teammates are plotting against him. They want a fight, and fighting's all he's good at. And when he gets into the heat of battle, even the destruction of his enemies won't stop him. Sometimes, he won't stop fighting until his bombs have blown most of himself apart. Author's Note Unlike JDprime's stories my chapters are going to be shorter in comparison but to make up for it there will be lots of chapters at least enough to have bios for every important character. people that are worried about Flash he is NOT a main character after this chapter he will only appear a few more times
Chapter 2: Lost LightSo i have decided to release this chapter because i thought it would do no good laying it around and collecting dust. It is not proofread nor is it even finished this is like about either a quarter or a half of what this chapter was going to be If anyone is interested to continue/pick up this story message me But this will be my last chapter unless someone else wants to finish it. ___________________________________________________________________ Time: 2 Earth hours ago Location: Autobot city, Canada, Earth Five years ago after the Autobots and Decepticons were sucked in the portal on Equestria triggered by the Crystal Heart during the final battle of the Crystal Empire both the Decpticons and the Autobots were transported to the dead Transformers world of Cybertron. Well most of them anyways The Dinobots, the Combaticons, Trypticon's corpse and the other deceased Decepticons remains were nowhere to be found, Autobots Perceptor, Wheeljack, and the Decepticon Shockwave finally deduced that they were teleported to either the past, the future, an alternate dimension or just simply to another part of the universe, either way they would have a very slim chance of seeing them again. The Autobots and Decepticons agreed to have a three year truce and during the time the Decpticons claimed Cybertron while the Autobots were able to find Metroplex and Broadside and build a one time use space bridge using the ancient tech inside of the giants to travel to Earth they appealed to the Humans of the planet by offering them protection, technology, knowledge and in return they were allowed to establish 3 bases on the planet which are made from the three Autobot titans Metroplex, Omega Supreme who has been knocked into stasis due to dark energon poisoning, and Broadside. The Iacon : Broadside converted into a mobile base in Africa. Omega District: Omega supreme converted into a tower which doubles as a space shuttle and is guarded by a giant tank, it is located on Earth's moon. Autobot City: Metroplex's city form which has been moved to Canada and is also the main Autobot base while a fraction of Metroplex's mind was moved into a shell which was named Scamper. The Autobots tried to prepare themselves for the battles they knew were coming once the truce ended but alas it was not to be easy the Decepticons made a surprise attack by sneaking to Autobot City via stealing and killing the crew of an energon transport ship. All but one of the ship's crew were killed the survivor a young Elite Guard recruit named Smokescreen who had faked death by tricking the Decepticons with a unique device he was gifted with known as the phase shiftier which granted him the ability to pass through solid objects and vice-versa. The battle started against the Autobots favor and by the end of the first day more then half of the bots stationed there were killed though it was not a total lost as the Autobots communication specialist Blaster was able to sent out a message to the the Moon base which upon receiving the Autobot leader Optimus Prime led reinforcements to retake Autobot city and confronted the Decepticon leader Megatron for a final battle for the unfortunately final time while Optimus was able to severely damage Megatron to the point where the Decepticons were forced to retreat he was like wise put into critical condition and shortly after the battle he died of his wounds but not before naming one of his oldest friends Sentinel Minor the new leader. Sentinel accepting this responsibility took over the mantle of Prime he led the Autobots to Cybertron to help defend the planet from a menace known as Unicron and a Decepticon named Galvatron who claimed to be the new Leader of the Decepticons in the ensuring chaos Sentinel lost the Matrix of Leadership and it was then another Prime was revealed in the Autobot known as Hotrod who used the Matrix to destroy Unicron and bring Cybertron back to life and became Rodimus Prime. After the battle the Autobots were finally able to retake Cybertron and send the Decepticons into retreat on Mars. After their victory the Matrix split in two and both Rodimus and Sentinel took a half and dedicated themselves to rebuild Cybertron for Optimus Prime and all of the fallen Autobots. ___________________________________________________________________ " That's the last one sir! " said Bulkhead the head of the Autobot construction team as the last block was placed, a group of Autobots and Humans starred at awe at the finished Autobot city museum among them was Rodimus Prime one of the two current Autobot leaders. " Nice job Bulkhead you and your team did a great job now visiting humans can come here if they want to know anything about us " Rodimus turned towards the bot beside him his mentor Ultra Magnus " What do you think Mags? " The blue older bot inspected the museum for a moment and turned back to him " Why here and not in some Human city like New York? " Ultra Magnus asked " Because its a more joyful experience to actually witness us walking around then pictures. " " I suppose so but they are in a greater risk due to possible Decepticon attacks and also the fact we could step on them." " That's why we have guard rails and paths to avoid such a thing from happening plus we have not even seen the Decepticons since we kicked their tailpipes out of Cybertron you should lighten up and not be so focused on the worst sometime Mags! " Ultra Magnus's only response was a sigh as he transformed and went to the command bridge while Rodimus followed shortly behind as they got to the bridge they took notice of a conversation between a few of the Autobot Elite Guard " Have you been able to track Crosscut and Roadbuster's ship Hotshot? " " No I'm sorry Dion sir I just can't their gone I'm sorry! " " Hotshot can you please stop apologizing for everything that's not your fault? " The rookie elite guardsmen nodded nervously and got back to work while Dion the Head Instructor of the Elite Guard approached Rodimus and Magnus with a few Guard members including senior officer Prowl, the chatty as ever Bluestreak, escape artist Getaway, theoretician Skids, and another rookie known as Smokescreen " Hey Roddy how goes the tourist attraction any one get squished yet? " piped Bluestreak as he smirked Rodimus rolled his optics replying " Well for your information Bluestreak it actually went well...and don't call me Roddy. " " Whatever you say Rodster " Bluestreak replied Rodimus ignored his insult and turned to Dion " Does Sentinel need anything? " Dion nodded " Yeah in fact he told me to get you so go report to the command bridge he has a mission for you see you later " " Your not coming? " Ultra Magnus asked " Nah I got to monitor Hotshot over there and help find Crosscut and Roadbuster their ship vanished when they went on some mission Sentinel gave them. " Rodimus acknowledged him and the small group went ahead to the bridge on the way there they were greeted by other Autobots and when they finally got to the main command station Rodimus told everyone to wait there as he got closer he saw Sentinel arguing with his adviser Chromedome over the missing ship. " I told you we should of sent them with backup " " And I told you Chromedome that we would've attracted Galvatron's attention and the Decepticons would have attacked that planet. " " Well we probably attracted that freak anyways and we promised we would never go to that planet again and bothered them. " " Never stopped Optimus from going there again " " That was different they had no idea they would end up there for a second time " " We have been signing truces with the other planets why not this one? " " You weren't there Sentinel you wouldn't understand " " You were not there either Chromedome. " Rodimus decided to speak up and when Sentinel noticed him he waved Chromdome off telling him to talk about it later Chromedome gave Sentinel a glare as he left the room as the two Primes stood there alone Sentinel decided to break the silence. " So Rodimus I assume everything went well for the new museum? " Yes Sir everything is coming across smoothly. " " Please Rodimus no need for formalities call me Sentinel " " Yes Si-I mean Sentinel anyways you need me for a mission " " Affirmative as you know already I had sent Crosscut on a mission to go sign a treaty with a nearby planet i sent Roadbuster with him but they just vanished without a trace " Sentinel explained in a tone that suggested he was not telling the whole story. " So you think the Cons got them? " Rodimus questioned Sentinel nodded with a worried face " Maybe but Roadbuster is one of the best pilots I know if they got him they can get anyone so it's really hard to decide if I should send you or not but I believe you may know this planet. " Sentinel went to the holo board and put up a holographic map of the milky way he zoomed on a specific planet and at first Rodimus just looked at it dumbfound but his jaw dropped when the planet's name showed up Equestria " By the Thirteen this can not be why would they disappear there? " " I don't know Rodimus but that is not the only thing that's up with this planet I also received a message this morning from someone." " Do you know who it was or what he wanted? " " Who he is no he was in the shadows the entire time during the video but he referenced himself as Nemesis for what he wants yes but you should see the video yourself. " Sentinel pressed a button on the holo board and the rooms lights dimmed as the entire wall was replaced by a video with a dark shape and all Rodimus could see was two crimson optics and then there was a voice that one could mistake for death itself. " Hello false Primes my name is Nemesis the true leader of the Decepticons we have been operating in secret for 2 years now since the Decepticons have started to fall but I have since begun to rebuild the empire to its former glory! " Rodimus smirked " Someone sure has problem with Galvs " Nemesis continued" You might be wondering why I have contacted you well here is the deal I want you to come here to Equestria or do you want the Equines and your Autobot negotiators to end like these three spys? " If Rodimus could throw up he would as Nemesis moved out of the way and behind him hanging from the ceiling like a hunter's trophies were the lifeless forms of Bumper, Fastback and much to his horror Tailgate and beside them pinned to the wall beaten and wounded were the still living Crosscut and Roadbuster. ___________________________________________________________________ Rodimus Prime: While still headstrong and stubborn like he was before he seems to suffer from a severe lack of confidence, often doubting his own decisions and expressing distress over his position as an Autobot leader. Of course, much of this comes from comparisons with his former commander Optimus Prime—and let's face it, shoes-to-be-filled just don't get much bigger than that.
