Chapter 6: Desertion of the Dinobots

The fire was spreading from the barn as the Autobots charged into fire to dig out their fallen comrade when a white and red being threw debris off of him and stumbled out of the flames.

"Celestia, Shockwave, ambush." the massive Autobot says, tipping over as his red visor goes black.

"Jetfire, hold on lad!" Kup says as he and Hot Rod caught him, laying him down gently.

"When did old Jetfire get here?" Springer says coming to Kup's side.

"I really don't know kid." Kup says looking down at the air guardian.

"Megatron, the prisoner is awake." Soundwave says.

"Wake her fully." Megatron says from the shadows as he attaches his fusion cannon.

"Understood." Soundwave says as he turns towards the princess of the day. and firing his voltage gun.

Celestia doesn't cry out in pain but instead continues to stand. Her legs shake under her as she spreads he wings and screams once more, falling to the dirt.

"Enough Soundwave." Megatron says kneeling down to the fallen alicorn.

"Wh, what do you want?" Celestia says while she lays on the ground, her legs twitch from the electric weapon.

"All in good time Celestia, all in good time." Megatron says now satisfied with her response to her capture.

"Secure her to the wall" Megatron says pointing to a wall where she will be out of the way.

"As you command Megatron." Soundwave says as he pushes a button on his chest, "Ratbat, Frenzy, Laserbeak, Buzzsaw, eject, operation detainment."

The four minicons fly out of his chest, Frenzy lands as the three others transform and hover in the air.

"Heh, this is for Rumble pony!" Frenzy says as he punches Celestia many times and breaks her wings, ending the physical torment by grabing her horn and slamming her face to the ground.

The four minicons transfer the beaten alicorn to the wall and secure her to it with iron chains.

"Return" Soundwave says, forcing his minicons to transform back to cassettes and flying back to there master.

"Now I want to know everything about your magic organic, everything!" Megatron growls.

"I won't tell you anything." Celestia states as she turns around as best she can.

"Soundwave, torture her until she submits or dies, if all else fails we can abduct another." Megatron says as he leaves his most trusted officer to his orders.

"Prowl, do you think they will be okay out there?" Luna asks the Autobot while he studies the many stain glass windows.

"I'm positive that they will be fine, there are few Decepticon who can handle a fight with Jetfire." Prowl says looking at a image of six ponies shooting another with beams of energy.

"I hope that thou are right." Luna says looking out the balcony and towards the sky.

"Grimlock, what are you doing?" Ultra Magnus yells as he runs to catch up with the Dinobots.

"Leaving to hunt the Decepticons." Grimlock says but doesn't stop.

"But we need you here if they attack again." Magnus says as he comes up to the side of the Dinobot commander.

"They aren't interested in us if they haven't already attacked." Grimlock says as they near the edge of the debris from the ships crash.

"You can't just storm off after them, we need a strategy!" Magnus yells grabbing the Dinobots arm.

Grimlock spins around and grabs Ultra Magnus by the head, "Me Grimlock have own strategy, me Grimlock crush them all!" he yells as he throws Magnus aside and transforms into a T-Rex.

"Grimlock!" Magnus yells as the Dinobots all transform and run into the forest.

"Mighty Megatron!" Starscream says as Megatron is instructing the Constructicons on what he wants built for his new base.

"What is it Starscream?" Megatron says, turning to face his Air Commander.

"Perhaps we should rethink our strategy here, the ponies are not going to surrender their knowledge and we won't learn how to use it for energon if we kill them all." Starscream says.

Megatron shoots him, "We will do it how I want to do it! Question me again and I will hit something vital!" Megatron sneers as he turns back to the Constructicons who laugh at the fallen seeker.

"I tire of your insolence Megatron, your quest for power at the extent of others is over." Starscream mutters to himself as he turns and flies away, leaving his Decepticon insignia behind.

"Hey Blur!" Hot Rod says from his perch on a rather large rock.

Blur looks at his friend.

"How did you get here? I thought you stayed with Magnus." Hot Rod says as he watches the ponies rebuild the barn with help from Springer.

"I snuck out an followed you guys, it was no fun at the ship, no fun, no fun at all." Blur says.

"Okay then." Hot Rod says, giving the blue transformer a bit more space.

"Celestia!" Jetfire yells as his visor turns back on blue.

"Whoa big guy, hold still!" Kup yells pushing Jetfire back down as Twilight lands back on top of him where she had been.

"Where is she?" Jetfire says rubbing his head.

"Who?" Kup asks but before Jetfire could say another word Twilight started shouting.

"What do you mean where is Celestia, was she with you before you fell out of the sky?" Twilight says getting in his face.

"Shockwave must have taken her." Jetfire says as he gets up and checks himself, "Who repaired me?"

"Myself and Miss Twilight did." Kup says as he too stands back up.

"What do you mean Shockwave took her, is she in danger?" Twilight says in a panic as her friends come into the clearing with the barn fully raised.

"If Shockwave has her then we must find her." Hot Rod says, joining into the conversation.

"Agreed." Jetfire says as he jumps back into the air and transforms into his jet mode.

"We'll search too!" Cosmos yells as he too transforms and flies in a different direction than Jetfire.

Springer also flies off in his helicopter mode as Kup, Blur, Arcee, and Hot Rod run into the woods, leaving the ponies behind and completely astonished at how fast their new friends could vanish from sight given their size.

"Girls, we have to find out what happened!" Twilight says, turning to her friends.

"Ah fer one agree, but first ah gotta get this here filly to bed Twi." Applejack says, looking at her little sister who is passed out and laying against a tree with her two friends and Spike.

"And I must get Sweetie Bell to bed as well darling." Rarity says walking over to her sister and slinging her across her back.

"I'll take Scootaloo home" Fluttershy says walking out of the clearing with a half asleep Scootaloo.

"I do suppose I should get Spike back to the Castle, but first I am going to write a letter to Princess Luna." Twilight says a she looks to Rainbow Dash, "Would you mind delivering it?"

"No problem Twi, I'll get it to Canterlot faster than you can say Crisis!" Rainbow Dash says as she does a loop.

"Thank you, hey do you know where Pinkie went?" Twilight says as she looks bout the clearing for their pink party pony friend.

"No clue, get that letter done and I'll get it delivered!" Rainbow says after looking around a bit.

Deep in the woods the Dinobots roam, looking for their prey, unbeknownst to them that they are being watched.

"OOOOHHHHHHHHH, you guys are different." a high pitched voice says from nowhere.

"Huh, who said that?" Grimlock yells, snorting flames from his snout.

"Oh its just me." the same high pitched voice says to the Dinobots.

"Me Salg say it sounds like beryllium baloney." Slag says in his Triceratops mode.

"Snarl say cesium salami." Snarl replies.

"Knock it off before I scrap you both, I'm still mad at you two for the incident on the ship!" Grimlock yells as he blows flames their way.

"OOOHHHHHH, confrontation!" that high pitch voice echos around them.

"Show yourself!" Grimlock yells.

"Oh, okay." a pony says as she falls down from a tree and onto Grimlocks head. The pony is wearing a ninja suite but her blue eyes, pink cotton candy likemane, and matching tail are visible, as well as a katana and pack of throwing stars. "Hi I'm Pinkie Pie, do you know who Shockwave is? He took our princess who brings the sun and we really need her back."

Grimlock quickly transforms and catches the pony in his hand, "I don't know anything about a princess, but if you are against Shockwave than I think we can help eachother out." He says as he opens his hand to reveal nothing.

"Oh, I'm up here siiiiiiilllllllllyyyyyyy." Pinkie Pie says from his shoulder.

"Wait, but, never mind. Which way to Shockwave?" Grimlock sputters, the other Dinobots also had transformed and had looks of complete confusion on their faces.

"Oh Shocky, he went that way!" Pinkie says pointing her hoof in the direction of the ponynapper.

"You heard our little friend Dinobots, charge!" Grimlock yells as he runs at full speed in the direction of the Decepticons his fellow Dinobots following him.
