Dart awoke with a groan, his body aching. His head felt like for hammers hit it at the same time. He rubbed his head, giving another groan, the feeling of warm metal meeting him. His vision, blurry at first, tried to make out objects.

"Oh, by the Spark..." Dart muttered, giving a growl of pain as he did so.

He grabbed his staff next to him, giving a shake of his head. His brain was full of muddled thoughts, and his memory had been fuzzy. What happened to him? And why did he feel so...big?

Dart disregarded the last thought, remembering how tall he was in the first place. His chest ached, making him gasp in pain, then he looked around, seeing the shapes of trees.

He got up, shaking some stone off of his body. How it got there was beyond him. He looked around, seeing the trees were...smaller than he was used to. They only stood up to his knees, the tallest trees did. He looked back, seeing a broken statue of, what looked like...Grimlock?

"Hey guys?" He called out, looking around. He tried to walk, his legs straining a little, giving a groan of pain. "Guys, this isn't funny."

He kept walking, shaking his head, trying to clear the blurriness. He started to lean against a stone pillar, before it started to tip over, breaking instantly.

Dart moved just in time, giving a snort of confusion. That thing must've been solid stone, and he tipped it over with no problems whatsoever. He gave a groan of pain, walking forward, stumbling a little.

"Guys? Mary? I fell for your little prank, now come out and show yourselves!"

He looked at his hands, before noticing something; a green glow on them. He started to stumble towards a pond, before looking in. The reflection that stared back freaked him back. His armor looked much more realistic than before, some Cybertronian writing on some of the pieces.

His eyes glowed, looking more robotic, glowing a soft forest green. He looked over himself, the armor feeling lighter, almost like it was a part of his body now. He opened his mouth to talk, only to see his helmet open in multiple places where his mouth would be.

"Oh my God!" He yelled falling backwards, He crushed quite a few trees on the way down, grabbing at his face. "What happened to me?"

He looked at his mace, seeing parts move under his arms. He felt the dirt, finding it strange he could still feel it through the metal. He looked around, before cupping his hands, pooling some water, before he realized it was a small lake.

'Okay, if this water is real, when it hits my face, I should wake up.' Dart thought to himself, before splashing some water onto his face. When nothing happened, he tried several times, before dunking his head into the water.

He sighed in anoyance, backing away from the small lake. He perked up when he heard a scream, slowly getting up. He started to walk towards the sound, moving better, getting used to his new size.

Maybe if he helped this person out, they'll be able to help him change back. He didn't recognize this place anyway, they might know something he doesn't know.

He kept walking, seeing a small cottage...well, small now. He kept walking, seeing a woman with...angel wings? Her hair was pink, and she was wearing a green sweater. She wore blue pants, her soft, baby blue eyes staring in terror of what was in front of her. Her wings were a light yellow, flaring out in terror.

In front of her was a...Decepticon? It stood only up to his knee, but the cannon on his arm was enough to give him a clue. Purple lights moved from body parts, his dark purple armor showing. His red eyes were glowing, though a mask was covering where his mouth would be.

The Decepticon aimed his weapon, before he slammed his mace like staff onto the ground. That caught his attention, making him look up, trailing up his legs. Dart gave a rumbling growl, glaring at him.

He aimed his cannon, before Dart grabbed the Decepticon with one hand, then grabbed the other half with the other hand. He quickly pulled, ripping the poor Decepticon in half, then threw both halves into the forest behind him.

Dart then looked at the woman, who's name was Fluttershy, and kneeled down to her level, saying "I am sorry you had to see that."

She just fell over, making the sound of a goat bleeting, fainting on the floor.

Dart gave a nervous chuckle, before looking towards the town. He growled loudly, then started walking towards the town, glaring at some Decepticons.

One of them scrambled to get away, before the other started firing at him. Dart brought his arm up, in a feeble attempt to protect himself. When he felt no pain, he looked up to see a metal shield come out of his arm, blocking the blasts easily.

He gave a smile, then charged forward, slamming his staff into the Decepticon's chest, impaling him easily. He then kicked off the body, hitting the escaping Decepticon in the back.

"Oh, this is going to be fun." He said to himself, before stepping the two Decepticons, giving a happy chuckle.

Something burned his back, making him look back, hitting the attacker with his staff, slamming the Decepticon into the ground. Blue Energon circled around the bodies, Dart walking forward, not noticing the crowd gathering behind him.

He kept walking, before he saw a squad of Decepticons, them aiming at a group of small children. Dart gave a primal roar, then charged, the small children started crying at the Decepticons, before noticing the large, metal man heading towards them. It slammed its mace into one of the Decepticons, stepping on another, and punching a third at the same time.

The Decepticons started firing, trying to bring down the large Dinobot. It roared loudly, the shots seemingly not affecting it. It gave out a bellow, the large knight slamming another Decepticon into the ground. He kicked on away, making it lie next to the children.

Dart growled loudly, stabbing another Decepticon with the sharp end of his staff. The one he knocked away got back up, looking at the children, then Dart.

"Stop!" This stopped the large Dinobot, seeing the Decepticon aim its cannon at the children. "Stop it or I obliterate these small organics and-"

The staff slammed into the Decepticons chest, killing it instantly. Dart just threw it, saving the children, giving a victorious roar in the air. He walked towards the metallic corpse, pulling the staff out. He started to walk towards the center of the town, the crowd growing more behind him.
