Transformers and Equestria Girls: Robots in Disguise
Friendship Games, Part 7/The Rainbooms Meet The Autobots
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe crowd was cheering for both schools.
“Since the score's tied, the final event will determine the winner of the Friendship Games,” Dean Cadance said.
“Somewhere on campus, a pennant from each school has been hidden. The first team to find their school's flag and bring it back wins,” Vice Principal Luna said, holding the pennants.
“And as soon as our teams are ready, we'll begin,” Dean Cadance said.
Meanwhile, the Rainbooms are feeling exhausted and really let down, due to all of their magic being stolen.
“I don't feel like playing these games anymore,” Fluttershy said.
“But we have to play. This is the last event!” Rainbow Dash said. Rarity scoffed, “It's a little hard to focus with all the magic stealing and portal opening.”
“And I feel awful about what I said to Twilight,” Sunset said, feeling upset.
“Especially since she obviously didn't mean to do all the stuff she did. She's actually really nice,” Fluttershy said, as Sunset facepalmed herself.
“Let's just get through this last event and prove we're not a bunch of cheaters. Then you can go over and apologize,” Applejack said.
Sci-Twi looked sad and nervously uncomfortable about the final event, meaning she didn’t want to hurt the Rainbooms or put them in danger.
“I know I'm asking you to beat a team that isn't playing fair, but Canterlot High must be made to understand that even with magic at their disposal, beating Crystal Prep is simply not an option,” Principal Cinch said.
“What if they grow wings again?” Sugarcoat asked.
“A fair question. Though I believe we can now fight fire with fire,” Principal Cinch said, walking over to Sci-Twi, who motivated her hand to Spike asking him to hide. “I've seen what your device can do, Twilight. Containing magical energy is fine, but have you considered releasing it?”
Sci-Twi was nervous, “But I don't even understand how it works.”
“But you'd like to. And since our opponents have already used it to stay competitive, I see no reason why we shouldn't do the same,” Principal Cinch said. “Unless, of course, you have no interest in Everton. Though, honestly, I think there's more knowledge packed in that little device than any independent study program could offer. So it’s your choice.”
Sci-Twi then looked at her classmates, and then Cinch gently shoved her forward, until as Sci-Twi nervously walked over to the center of the school yard.
Fluttershy pointed at Sci-Twi as she took it off her neck as it was spinning diagonally, as the Rainbooms saw what was happening, including Bumblebee and the Autobots.
“If both teams are ready...”
Spike ran over to try to stop her.
Sci-Twi then touched her device, until she saw all that magic inside before her eyes enchantedly changed color.
“...the last event of the Friendship Games begins...”
Sunset was concerned about what was going to happen.
“Twilight, no!” Spike yelled, trying to stop her. Sci-Twi then opened it.
“Now!”
There was a burst of energy from the device as she opened it up, and both the Rainbooms and Shadowbolts were shocked to see what was happening.


Somewhere far from the school while driving, Optimus and a small team of Autobots were watching. “BY THE ALLSPARK OF CYBERTRON!” Optimus exclaimed.
Sci-Twi struggled, as she tried to break free from the orb of magic, “Heeeeeeeeeelllllllp... meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Uhh! Ahh!”
Sci-Twi suddenly became something else. Her skin changed darker purple, she had a demonic dress with a long tail, fingerless gloves and boots with glowing shoes, and her eyes were glowing with a flaming mask, and her hair was streaked up like a ball of fire, and she had a laser horn on her head, along with a huge pair of demonic archangel wings. She became… Midnight Sparkle!

Principal Cinch cowardly backed away while the Shadowbolts realized what they’ve unleashed, and Spike whimpered as he was scared too.
Midnight Sparkle cackled with evil laughter, and turned to Sunset, “You were right! I didn't understand magic before, but I do now!”
Midnight Sparkle’s horn lit up, and as her eyes lit up as well, she unleashed a beam of energy from her hand, and destroyed the statue, revealing a portal to Equestria.
Sunset was shocked and concerned about what she was seeing, “Equestria!”
Suddenly, the ground cracked with purple cracks and so the students started panicking as more portals of Equestria scared them.
Sunny Flare suddenly saw Principal Cinch running to hide, “Hey! Where are you going?!”
“Anywhere to avoid that... monster! And I suggest you do the same!” Principal Cinch replied, as she ran off to find cover. The five Shadowbolts didn’t know what to do.
“Twilight, you can't do this!” Sunset said.
“Why not?! There's a whole other world right there, and it's just filled with magic!” Midnight Sparkle said, blasting open another portal at the school entrance, blocking the principals’ escape.
“But you're destroying this world to get it!” Sunset said.
“So what? There's more magic there, and I want to understand it all!” Midnight Sparkle said, as she unleashed her full power and created a huge hole with an Equestrian sky.
A few students were screaming, as Sunset dodged the attack and grabbed Sci-Twi’s device.
A student was about to fall into the hole, but Applejack grabbed hold and grunted while pulling her up, “Don't let go!”
More students were screaming as Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity and Rainbow Dash helped a few Crystal Prep and Canterlot High students. Sugarcoat, Sunny Flare, Sour Sweet, Indigo Zap, and Lemon Zest decided to help.
“Hang on!” Rainbow Dash yelled.
“Obviously!” Rarity said, while struggling, before she fell into the hole as her hand slipped, until Indigo Zap and Lemon Zest caught her.
“We got you!” Indigo Zap said, as she and Lemon Zest pulled her and the Crystal Prep students she caught back up.
Sunset saw Sci-Twi’s device humming as the Rainbooms’ magic returned, so she confronted Twilight as an idea popped into her head, “This isn't the way! I know you feel powerful right now, like you can have everything you want! I've been where you are, I've made the same mistake you're making! I put on a crown and, just like you, I was overwhelmed by the magic it contained! I thought it could get me everything I wanted!”
Midnight Sparkle suddenly didn’t care, “Oh, you're wrong. Unlike you, I can have everything I want!”
“No, you can't. Even with all that magic and power, you'll still be alone!” Sunset said, as Optimus Prime and the Autobots were listening. “True magic comes from honesty! Loyalty! Laughter! Generosity! Kindness! I understand you, Twilight, and I want to show you the most important magic of all...”
Sunset then transformed into an angelic version of herself, but she had a white and grayish red dress with a fire shaped skirt, orange boots with orange glowing shoes, white fingerless gloves, jewelry with her sun symbol, and a red stripe on her face, and her hair was all the way up, and she had orange glimmering wings that flittered like a pixie, and a orange laser horn pointing straight. She became… Daydream Shimmer.

“...the Magic of Friendship!”
Midnight Sparkle was shocked about Sunset’s new look, and the Rainbooms were as well. Daydream Shimmer closed all the portals with her orange colored magic, and then she and Midnight Sparkle had a magical fight by blasting beams of magic at each other, while creating an explosive clash that was blindingly powerful.
Midnight Sparkle grunted as she and Daydream Shimmer bashed their lasers together, but Midnight’s was stronger than Daydream’s, as Midnight let out an evil laughter.
The students of both schools were terrified, until Spike looked at the girl, “Twilight!” Midnight Sparkle/Sci-Twi looked down at her puppy’s big eyes, “Spike?”
Daydream Shimmer had the upper hand and defeated Midnight Sparkle by freeing Sci-Twi from within.
“Noooo!”
Daydream Shimmer then looked at Midnight Sparkle, and then offered her hand, “Take my hand, Twilight. Let me show you there's another way... just like someone once did for me.”
Sci-Twi then thought about it, until she took Sunset’s hand and they both returned to normal and then Sci-Twi felt guilty, “I am so sorry... I didn't mean for any of this to happen...”
“I know. None of this was your fault. And going by my own experiences, they'll forgive you,” Sunset said, as Sci-Twi hugged her. Spike barked, and then landed onto Sci-Twi as she giggled while hugging her dog.
Principal Cinch angrily stormed towards Principal Celestia, “Principal Celestia, on behalf of Crystal Prep, I demand that you forfeit the Friendship Games! Clearly, CHS has had unfair advantage for quite some time! And it's certainly obvious that your students have been using magic for their own benefit!”
“I'd like to think that saving the world benefits us all,” Principal Celestia said.
“At least they didn't manipulate Twilight into releasing all the stolen magic and turning into a power-crazed magical creature that tried to rip the world apart just to win a game,” Sugarcoat said.
“Wow! That's a lot to take in when you say it all at once,” Pinkie Pie said.
“That's ridiculous!” Principal Cinch retorted.
“Nope, that's pretty much what happened,” Spike said, as Principal Cinch was freaked out.
Sour Sweet then sweetly spoke up, “Actually, we're all to blame.” She then blamed it on Cinch sourly, “Mostly it was her.”
Principal Cinch then angrily retorted, “Obviously my students have been infected with your magic, but I plan on taking all of this up with the school board!”
“Of course, Principal Cinch,” Principal Celestia said. “I'm sure they would be very absolutely and delightfully interested in hearing your story all about the magical schoolgirls with wings.”
“Oh, and the portals to different dimensions,” Vice Principal Luna commented.
“And don't forget to tell them about the talking dog,” Dean Cadance giggled.
“Because that would never ruin your reputation,” Spike said, as Principal Cinch looked at her students and the Rainbooms smirking at her with confidence.
Cinch then growled in frustration, “Very well, but don’t think this’ll be the last time you’ve ever crossed roads with me, which is what you’ll soon regret!” She then cooled down and walked away.
“Well, I know these Friendship Games haven't been what any of us expected, but given what we've all just been through, I think it's fair to declare us all winners,” Principal Celestia said, as the Wonderbolts and Shadowbolts cheered together.
Dean Cadance saw Sci-Twi walking over to her, “Yes, Twilight?”
Sci-Twi then spoke up, “Dean Cadance, I've been thinking about it and... I'm not so sure now is the time for me to apply to Everton.”
Dean Cadance was surprised, “Really?”
Sci-Twi nodded, “I may know about a lot of things, but friendship isn't really one of them. And I'm definitely not gonna learn more about it by being alone all the time. And it seems the students here at CHS know an awful lot about the subject.”
Dean Cadance and Principal Celestia knew exactly what Sci-Twi was talking about, until Celestia had an idea, “I think it’s a wonderful idea, Dean Cadance. If you’ll follow me to my office, we’ll talk about having Twilight transferred here to Canterlot High, so in the meantime, Sunset, I need you all to look out for her, just as Princess Twilight once did for you. I'm sure I can count on you girls to help her feel at home. Can you do that?”
Sunset nodded, “You sure can, Principal Celestia.” She smiled and Celestia smiled as well before she, Vice Principal Luna, and Dean Cadance walked inside to her office to talk about the transfer.
After Sci-Twi said goodbye and accepted apologies from the Shadowbolts as they wished her good luck, she suddenly found herself surrounded by the Rainbooms, including Sunset.
Rainbow Dash wrapped her arm around Sci-Twi’s neck. “Looks like you’re gonna be one of us now! This’ll be so awesome!”
Rarity then began to chime in, “Just you wait, Twilight darling! I have a whole list of hairstyles and excellent clothing ideas just for you that really match your style!” She giggled and placed a hand gently over her mouth. “Oh, do pardon my generous enthusiasm, darling.”
“Don’t worry, Twilight. With us around, you’ll do just fine,” Sunset said, as Sci-Twi accepted the friendship from her new friends.
Outside the town district near the school, the Combaticons were on their way over, until they were unexpectedly stopped by Starscream, Lugnut, Blitzwing, the three Stunticons Dead End, Wildrider, and Breakdown, Barricade, Demolisher, Cyclonus and Soundwave.
They transformed into robot mode and confronted their commander. “Starscream? What do you want now?” Onslaught asked.
“Why haven’t you found those Earthlings yet?!” Starscream yelled. “We’ve tried, but no sign,” Brawl said. “I have news that Optimus Prime and those accursed Autobots are here on this wretched mudball of a planet,” Starscream said. “The human females have been located, and they’re headed back to the academy building now,” Soundwave said.
“Excellent, Soundwave,” Starscream said. “Decepticons! We attack immediately, but only seize and capture!” The Decepticons then took flight while others drove.
Later on, after a small nature walk, the girls came back to the school so they can meet up with the principals about Sci-Twi’s transfer to CHS, but as they got there, they saw that every student went home, and Crystal Prep got back onto the bus back to school and headed home.
After talking with the principals, the girls got their bags, and then Sunset looked into her journal. “Still no word from Princess Twilight?” Fluttershy asked.
Sunset shook her head, “Not yet. But I think I may have figured out how magic works in this world. We pony up when we're showing the truest part of ourselves. I was so busy waiting for someone else to give me the answers that I gave up looking for them myself. I'm sure there will be more magical problems that pop up in this world, but like Applejack said, Princess Twilight has her own problems to worry about in Equestria. We can't expect her to always be around to help us.”
“Maybe I can help, if you’ll give me a chance,” Sci-Twi said. “Of course we’ll accept your help,” Sunset said.
Suddenly, they heard the sound of vehicles approaching.
“Hold on just a second. Ain’t nobody else wonderin’ or noticin’ why those military vehicles are driving with those civilian vehicles?” She asked pointing at the vehicles headed towards them.
“Or why they’re headed straight for us, with fighter jets in the air?!” Rainbow Dash asked.
Suddenly, the military vehicles, fighter jets, and civilian vehicles started to transform into giant robots with distinct features and colors from their vehicle forms, but carried a purple symbol on their shoulders or chest.
Starscream looked down at the seven girls as they sticked together. “Are you the seven ‘magical equine girls’ situated at this educational facility?” He asked, as Sunset stepped forward.
“Yeah?” Sunset replied, as she tried to be brave.
“You have something that belongs to me,” Starscream said. “We have what?!” Rainbow Dash asked.
“The cosmic energy in your bodies! Hand it to me, and we’ll spare your lives!” Starscream commanded.
Blitzwing then formed his crazy face, “But I want to see them pony up! Can I?! Can I?! Can I?!”
“SILENCE, BLITZWING!” Lugnut yelled.
“They want our magic?!” Fluttershy asked while nervously shaking in fear, and hiding behind Applejack. “What do we do?!” Rarity asked.
“RUN!” Sunset and Sci-Twi answered in unison, as the girls screamed and ran for their lives.
“Come back here, you pathetic insects, before I pound you and scramble you into pieces!” Blitzwing called in his angry face.
“We need them alive, you idiot!” Starscream said. “Decepticons, fan out and find them!” The Decepticons then transformed into vehicle mode and spread out to find the girls.
Later on, the girls hid themselves at an abandoned warehouse next to a riverside and a big rail yard guarded by a fence.
As the Decepticons arrived and started looking for the girls, the Rainbooms quietly tried to move without making a sound, but as they safely made another way through, a sound of metal was heard, as Rainbow Dash accidentally bumped into a toolset.
Blitzwing then turned around with his crazy face, “Ooh! Peekaboo! I see you!”
“Run for it!” Sunset said, as they started running.
“You can run, but you can’t hide!” Cyclonus shouted, as he and Demolisher tried to grab them. Soundwave saw them running again, “Laserbeak, Ravage, Rumble, get them!” He then dispatched three of his mini-cons, which were the intelligence droning bird, Laserbeak, the feline saboteur android Ravage, and the humanoid demolition robot, Rumble.



“Get ready to crumble before Rumble, pipsqueaks!” Rumble said, as he went after the girls. Ravage made a snarling sound, and Laserbeak soared through the air.
As the girls ran through the rail yard while the Decepticons kept trying to catch them, they now ended up in a dead end. “We’re trapped! There’s no way out!” Rainbow Dash said, as the girls saw Ravage and Rumble getting closer.
“Looks like you’re out of luck, little ladies!” Rumble said, until a yellow and black hand grabbed him.
Bumblebee then threw Rumble out of the way. Ravage then jumped onto Bumblebee and tried to claw or bite his head off. Bumblebee stung Ravage with his stinger, and then the feline retreated.
Bumblebee then went up to Cyclonus and jumped onto him, stomping the Decepticon on the ground, until he punched Demolisher in the face, causing a slow motion action scene.
Starscream and the other Decepticons appeared, until Lugnut slapped Bumblebee out of the way, and the yellow Autobot landed onto a couple of trains.
“BUMBLEBEE!” Sci-Twi screamed.
“And now, for not complying with cooperation, I’m afraid we’ll have to do this… the harder way after I devour your magical cosmic energy from your pathetic insect bodies!” Starscream said, as he aimed his weapon at the girls.
Suddenly, a truck horn was heard, as Optimus ran into a few Decepticons knocking them over. “What trickery is this?!” Starscream asked.
Optimus then pulled over to the girls and opened one of his side doors, “Get in!”
The girls were shocked that the truck could talk, until Sci-Twi saw the Autobot symbol on Optimus’s trailer. “Come on. Let’s move it,” Sci-Twi said, as she and Sunset got into the truck. “Hey, wait for us!” Rainbow Dash said, as she and the others got in.
As Demolisher kneeled down to see the girls in the truck as they panicked, Optimus honked his horn and drove while Demolisher was trying to stop the Autobot leader from escaping, until Optimus activated his trailer’s laser bullet turret and shot red lasers at Demolisher’s face, before the Decepticon fell over, and Optimus drove on top of the Decepticon while the girls saw the wheel and shifting gears were automatically changing directions as Optimus was driving himself.
“Whoa! Cool!” Rainbow Dash said, as the robot truck landed onto normal ground and drove the girls off to a safer location, but suddenly, a huge robot combined with 5 vehicles which looked like the Combaticons, which was named Bruticus, destroyed the bridge with his fist, and suddenly, Optimus Prime and the girls were trapped in the river surrounded by debris and rubble.
“Here’s something to keep you cozy, Autobot scum!” Blitzwing said, as he aimed his cannons at a metal tower and piled more debris onto Optimus, until the girls were trapped underneath the pillar, and tried to stay upwards and kept breathing so they wouldn’t drown and die.
Before Blitzwing could fire again, a ground bridge portal opened, and out came Bulkhead, Ironhide, Windblade, Jetfire, and Jazz.
“Mind if we join the fun?” Jazz asked, as the Autobots and Decepticons began fighting.
Optimus emerged from the rubble, until he heard a voice. “Help! HELP!”
He saw the girls calling for help since they were trapped in water under a metal tower, and coughing from the smoke of fire and gasping for air.
“We can't get out!” Sunset yelled, as she and the other girls kept coughing and gasping. “Somebody! Save us!” Rainbow Dash yelled.
Optimus then swam over to them. Sci-Twi coughed, “Hurry! The fire! It's coming closer!”
Optimus then tried lifting the tower, but he couldn’t, “Ugh! Ugh! I can't lift it! Too… heavy!” He then reached his arm carefully underneath, “Grab onto me! Keep your heads above water!”
Suddenly, Optimus used his sword and made an exit for the girls. “Hurry! Climb onto my shoulders!” They all got onto his shoulders and held onto some of his parts.
“Catch this, OP!” Jazz’s voice called out, as he tossed a grappling harpoon at Optimus, and then he caught it before Jazz reeled him in like a fishing rod.
Optimus transformed back into vehicle mode and let the girls inside, until Rarity pulled out some blankets and towels, which were still usable.
“Autobots, hold them off while I get the girls to safety!” Optimus ordered, as they all complied and held off the Decepticons while Optimus escaped with the girls inside.
“Starscream, Optimus Prime has the human females with him, and he’s escaping!” Barricade said. “Some plan you had!” Dead End said. “Shut up and keep firing!” Starscream said, as the fight continued.
Later on, the Autobots had the advantage, before the Decepticons were outnumbered by amounts of firepower. “This is a waste of time! Decepticons, retreat!” Starscream yelled as he and the Decepticons returned to the Nemesis after transforming into vehicle mode, while the ones who rode on the ground took their escape through a ground bridge.
The Autobots then went through their ground bridge and returned to base so they can wait for Optimus there.
“Ratchet, set up the patch kit. Bumblebee’s a little bit crippled from the fight,” Bulkhead said, helping the yellow Autobot to the medical bay. “Easy now, Bumblebee. Just hold still,” Ratchet said, as he started fixing Bumblebee. Bumblebee thanked Ratchet and the others for the help once again with thankful bleeps.
“So what happened out there?” Arcee asked.
“Well, we ran into Starscream and some of Megatron’s old lackeys. Looks like Scream’s now calling the shots, since Megatron’s not around,” Bulkhead said. “We almost had them on the run,” Ironhide said.
“Well, just be glad you’re all in one piece,” Wheeljack said.
“Where’s Optimus?” Arcee asked, with a hand on her hip.
“He’s on his way over, with those seven females Bumblebee’s told us about,” Jazz said. “Plus, now’s a good time to get to meet them.”
30 minutes later…
Optimus was driving down the road from across town towards the forest, and towards the canyon side, while the girls were inside the truck either feeling bored, scared, or just sleeping.
“Why are we in the canyon?” Sunset asked. “You’ll see soon enough,” Optimus replied, until he arrived at a huge mountain. Suddenly, mechanical doors opened through the mountain, revealing a drive through tunnel, and then as Optimus entered the interior, it was a hidden bunker made with human and Cybertronian technology, and whatever was left from the Ark.
The girls had amazed reactions about how well it was built, and then Optimus stopped driving and let them out including Spike, before he transformed into robot mode.
The girls went upstairs to see the Autobots’ faces closely, and then looked at Optimus.
“It appears Soundwave discovered your magical cosmic energy signature from your bodies like we did. Which means they’re plotting something,” Optimus said.
“But what do they want with us and our magic anyway? All we did was pony up unexpectedly, since our magic shows our true traits of friendship,” Sunset said.
“I wish I had an answer for you, but I don’t,” Optimus said.
“Excuse me,” Sci-Twi said. “This kinda happened by accident like a few times. All I wanted was to learn about their magic and how it works, but when Principal Cinch blackmailed me to participate in the Friendship Games if I were to apply to the Everton Independent Study Program, she then forced me to unleash it, changing me into Midnight Sparkle, that she-demon you might’ve seen.”
“And after Celestia, our principal of the school we go to, and Crystal Prep’s faculty head, Dean Cadance transferred her over to CHS, we just wanted to relax from those magical mishaps. We never wanted to start a war,” Sunset said.
“Please, don’t blame yourself,” Optimus said. “None of this was your fault. Like you said, it was only an accident, but only before we received the same readings from your magical energy source coming from your school. We had no choice but to watch over you in secret.”
“So, you’re not here to hurt us?” Fluttershy asked.
“Pfft! Please!” Ratchet scoffed.
Rarity gasped in shock with a scoff, “Beg your pardon?!”
“Easy, Ratchet. Let’s not get them startled or offended,” Optimus said.
“Maybe it’s time we introduced ourselves,” Sunset said. “I’m Sunset Shimmer, and where I’m from is a place called Equestria, where three races of ponies inhabit together. This journal I have is where I write to a friend of ours, who’s also a princess. Her name is Princess Twilight Sparkle, but this one is this world’s Twilight.”
“I’m Twilight Sparkle, like Sunset said, but I’m also new on the team,” Sci-Twi said.
“I’m Pinkie Pie!” she exclaimed excitedly. “I’m the party planning expert in CHS, and expert at baking cakes and pies!” Bulkhead suddenly chuckled.
“I am Rarity, professional fashionista of the group. War isn’t really my thing, so I’d appreciate it if your warfare didn’t ruin my gorgeous and fabulous dresses,” The other girls groaned.
“I’ll finish it off, y’all. Name’s Applejack. I help run an apple orchard farm. The one with the rainbow colored hair is Rainbow Dash, our school’s sports captain and professional athlete, and the one hiding behind everyone else is Fluttershy, who loves all the little critters in the world.” Applejack explained, as Rainbow Dash nodded, and Fluttershy nervously waved at Optimus. “Hi,” she shyly said.
“So, what are you guys anyway?” Rainbow Dash asked.
“My name is Optimus Prime. We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron, also known as Autobots,” he said. “You already know my scout and reconnaissance officer, Bumblebee.”
“Yeah, we do,” Sci-Twi said. “Thank you for what you did back there,” Fluttershy said. “You were pretty awesome,” Sunset said, as Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes with a smirk.
Bumblebee accepted their expressing gratitude with bleeps, and gave them a nod.
“I am Ratchet, Autobot medical officer,” he said. “As you can see, Bumblebee’s vocal processors were damaged in battle during the war. I’m still working on him though.”
“Name’s Bulkhead, former member of the wreckers,” the green Autobot said, introducing himself.
“Call me Arcee, Autobot soldier and recon officer,” she said.
“Name’s Ironhide, Autobot weapons and combat specialist trooper,” he said. “And whatever happens to all of ya I can handle!”
“Name’s Jazz. Autobot trooper and a self-titled Autobot with a groovy taste of victory, justice and freedom. Ya dig?” he said, as Rainbow Dash winked at him. “Wow! I kinda like this one!”
“I’m Smokescreen, Elite Guard trooper and an Autobot warrior meant for speed and action!” he said.
“I’m Windblade, the Autobots’ stealth expert and master of the cyber ninja clan,” she said.
“Call me Scattershot, computer work expert,” he said.
“I’m Wheeljack, the Autobots’ technology expert and tactical engineer, but for short, I’m an inventor of advanced technological science,” he said.
“I’m Prowl, the patrol and law enforcement officer of the Autobots,” the police car robot said.
“I’m Jetfire, sky support officer, and these two beside me are Air Raid, Skydive and Silverbolt, and we’re called Aerialbots, an elite flight strike team of the Autobots,” the big jet robot said, and introduced Air Raid, Skydive and Silverbolt, who were at both sides of him.
“It’s nice to meet you all,” Sunset said. “So… why are you here?”
“We’re here to protect your planet from total annihilation,” Optimus replied. “The ones who tried to harm you are called Decepticons. We must stop them before they conquer your world and destroy your cities as well.”
“So, why else are they here?” Sunset asked.
“A fair question, Sunset,” Optimus said. “In terms they’re here because our planet is uninhabitable, ravaged by centuries of civil war.”
“Why were you fighting a war?” Fluttershy nervously asked.
“Foremost, over complete control of our world’s supply of Energon, the fuel and lifeblood of all Autobots and Decepticons alike,” he replied, as he tapped a side of his head and then started playing a blue hologram from his optics that hit the empty ground near where the Rainbooms were standing, while the others stood back so Optimus could start the story.

Optimus then showed them a view of a holographic planet coming from the ground. The entire planet was made of metal, with lots of lights illuminating the endless cities. The planet was somehow covered by circuit board printed rivers of a strange blue liquid or energy that was glowing in the surface of the planet, but it was how it looked today before they evacuated the planet, and showed all the Autobots and Decepticons fighting by shooting red and purple lasers, along with missiles causing explosions. The girls began to think that must be Cybertron, home world of the Autobots and Decepticons.
“Our civilizations have lived in peace for centuries, but some of us wanted more. The war raged on until it swallowed our once mighty cities. The combat was fierce and endured for centuries. In the beginning, I fought alongside one whom I considered a brother. But in war, ideals can be corrupted. And it was thus, while corrupted by power… that Megatron lost his way,” Optimus said, showing the girls a picture of what Megatron looked like, which scared them.
Pinkie Pie fake yawned, “Is there gonna be a quiz?”
“So, what does Megatron, or any of this, have to do with us?” Sunset asked.
“Megatron hasn’t been seen or heard from since the last time. But if his return was imminent, meaning if he even survived, as I fear, it could be catastrophic,” Optimus said.
“Well, of there’s anything you need, you can count on us! Because we’re not afraid to get our hands dirty on anything!” Rainbow Dash said, as the girls made agreeable comments.
“I appreciate your enthusiasm, Rainbow Dash, but this is our battle, and we must see it through ourselves,” Optimus said.
“But me and Twilight are the ones responsible for the magical mishaps. With our Equestrian magic, we can help you stand up to the Decepticons,” Sunset said.
“So please let us help you!” Sci-Twi said.
“I told you before. This is our battle, and I will not endanger any more innocent human lives,” Optimus said.
“Oh, come now, Optimus darling, you could at least give us a chance. Because I’m not going to risk getting my expensive outfits, including my $110 suede purple leather boots dirty, plus I can come up with the right outfits for us!” Rarity commented.
“I have to agree with Rarity on this one. We did save Canterlot High from being brainwashed by the sirens, and helped Twilight transfer here,” Applejack said.
“I guess I’d be okay with helping out others,” Fluttershy nervously said.
“So, please let us try!” Rainbow Dash said.
“Plus, we know more about this planet than you do! And we can teach you about human cultures,” Sunset said.
“Hmm… maybe you can help us,” Optimus said. “Very well. If you’re going to fight alongside us, you’ll need some personal protection.”
“I know just how to do that!” Rarity said, as she giggled with giddiness. “Allow me to assist with that, little lady,” Wheeljack said. “Oh, Wheeljack, you’re such a gentleman. Thank you ever so much, darling,” Rarity said.
“Anytime,” Wheeljack said. “Optimus, we promise we’ll be the help you deserve,” Sunset said.
“I understand, and as leader of the Autobots, I accept your decision,” Optimus said, as the girls cheered happily.
Meanwhile, back on the Nemesis, Soundwave started getting a transmission, as he approached Starscream.
“Those transmissions are emanating from deep space. I would hate to waste the Energon… unless you are absolutely certain,” Starscream said, as Soundwave nodded. “Affirmative.”
Starscream grunted, “Then lock on to those transmissions’ coordinates and activate the space bridge!”
A Vehicon computer worker typed in on a computer, and it accessed the Cons’ space bridge, and as it opened up into a green vortex, it showed something flying from it, revealing a silver and purple alien jet plane with a purple cannon on top, until it transformed into robot mode, revealing Megatron, the Decepticon leader!
“DECEPTICONS! I have returned!”
