Transformers Fractures

[megaplex]

Hi everybody. This is my first fic/post. So without further ado this is my story. It's practically the G1 cartoon until the movie battle between Prime and Bucket head.

PROLOGUE:TRANSPORT TO OBLIVION

“RETREAT! FALL BACK TO THE SHUTTLE!!!” The Decepticon second in command shouted to all the mechs surrounding and listening in on him. “Megatron has fallen!!!” Upon hearing this the Decepticon forces retreated dodging blaster fire as they hurried to their transforming ally near the back of Autobot City.

“S-soundwave, do n-not leave me.”Megatron said weakly to his communications officer.

Being ever faithful he ran over and gently picked up his fallen leader making sure so as not to hurt him anymore while telling Frenzy to retrieve the fusion cannon, setting his leader down as he stepped inside Astrotrain’s shuttle mode staring at the one responsible for the defeat of Megatron...Optimus Prime.
………………………………………………………..

Hot Rod frantically ran over to Optimus helping hold up his leader . “Sir, shouldn't we send Omega or the Aerialbots after them to make sure they're truly finished off?”

“No, for now they will be rudderless without leadership and if I know anything about the Decepticon way, they'll surely infight to detrimental levels”,Optimus responded while standing up straight not letting his wounds affect his posture or voice.

“But what about Ironhide,Prowl, and all the others!? Shouldn't we get vengea-” Kup smacking him for interrupting Primes speech.

“We shall rebuild and mourn our fallen friends. We will not let their losses be in vain but we need to rest and once we're done, I promise...all of you, we will hunt the rest of the Decepticons down and make them sorry.” Prime strongly finished, lightening the somber mood just a bit.
………………………………………………………..

Boredom. Boredom is what's killing Rumble. Not losing or Megatron’s beat down. The thing bothering him is when next time he'll be able punch someone

Astrotrain’s speakers suddenly turned on waking some of the cons who're resting their wounds up. “I need to jettison some weight. Lighten the load or I'll never make it to Cybertron.”

With a flash in his optics, the traitorous Seeker Starscream perked up upon hearing the message, and a smirk covering his face. “Fellow Decepticons. Our transport has requested we lighten our burden. Let us dispose...,” with a long drawn out syllable, “of the less fortunate.” Elation coming from his voice. “Who agrees?!”

“AYE!!” Shouted back by the stronger Decepticons.
“And all opposed?”
“nay” Weakly croaked out by the others.
“Well, that settles it. Out of the ship!” Starscream commanded, they were in his mind, his soldiers to rid the weakness from they're ranks.Starscream during all the excitement walked to a chamber separate chamber housing...Megatron!

“Time for your leave oh glorious leader.” Starscream whispered under his breath.

“wait,” wheezed their leader blindly looking around him. Fear. Fear in the voice of the one who instilled it for so long as the first time in millions of years was quite satisfying for Starscream.
“I still function.”

“Wanna bet?” Starscream said as he picked him up.

“starscream, is that you?”

“Here's a hint.” Tossing him out of the shuttle, and with that the reign of Megatron was finally over, and now? Now was the age of the Maximo Starscream. Maximo. He liked the ring of that.

Oh fantastic! I take it this is going to be an alt-u thing?

I'd say to watch your tenses though - some parts slip into present tense, most of it is past tense (past tense tends to be preferred, I think)

[megaplex]

Thanks. It is an alternate universe story. I have a lot of trouble keeping those two consistent, and it is supposed to be past

Welcome aboard!

An alternate universe movie fic. Very nice, interested to see what you do with this.

I'm glad to be aboard. I have some ideas that I hope you guys will like. I never really see a lot alternate universe G1 cartoon stories but that could be just cause I haven't seen a lot of the TF fandoms deeper levels. I know a lot about the fiction in official stuff but up until now I've never really thought of joining the online community.

[Andy Turnbull]

Being something of an old fart, G1 cartoon based pic used to dominate the landscape, but there's been a bit of a shift away from that over the years.

Always toyed with doing a sequel/continuation to The Rebirth myself. Maybe one day...

[megaplex]

That's cool. I really like the G1 cartoon cause I was raised with it and various others 80's stuff like Ghostbusters, Godzilla(kind of 80's and my favorite film franchise. Might do a tf crossover with it), Gi joe, He-Man, and Silverhaks. I like the wings universe since it continues the shows universe but not the rebirth, not that I don't like the rebirth. Sorry for my long comments. I'm just happy being apart of a community that really love's stuff I love, most of my friends watch anime and the like.

[Pinwig]

Excellent stuff!

Thanks

CHAPTER ONE
Some time later...
WHAM! KLANG! BONK! “Stupid Constructicon. Stealing my rations. Eat fist!!!” Wildrider shouted hurling insult after insult and punch after punch. Decepticons surrounding them as if they were betting on a cyberooster fight.

Mixmaster trying to get off the metal floor of their base “*cough* I haven't done anything. It wa-” KRAK!

“Oh really Mixer?”, picking him up by his head wrapping his hands sound his jaw. “Frag you!!!”

“STOP RIGHT NOW!!!!” Starscream sauntered into the ring. “What is the meaning of this Wildrider?” Pulling him off of Mixmaster. The other constructicons helping Mixmaster up.

“Mixer here stole MY energon rations! I was just...teaching him an important lesson.”

“let me go guys *cough*,” Mixmaster whispered his friends, “I didn't steal anything. You just forgot that you used it all. Slagging fool.”

“Well…,” Starscream interjected, “ The whole reason we have these problems is Ratbat hoarding energon and Shockwave using most of our non hoarded energon on stupid research and missions looking for MEGATRON of all people!”

Almost as soon as he finished a purple form flew into the room, “You're not go blame either Starscream. You constantly wax and buffer yourself for no reason. And I protect, not hoard you simpleton, our LIVELIHOOD. Our fuel...so I can make sure we survive……..FOOL!”

“I need to keep a positive image Ratbat so my troops can see me as a bright beacon of hope for the futur-”

“Actually Starscream,” Misfire cutting him off, “ we don't really see ourselves as your troops we see ourselves as your troops. By the way.”

“As I was saying, I hope to be the inspirational leader you all rally behind in Megatron’s abse-,” *woosh*,”oh what now?!”

The entrance to the room opened up revealing a single eye peering through the dark. “Megatron shall return, it is only logical! And when he does I shall be there to welcome him back. Meanwhile you will be scrap under my heel.”

Starscream turned towards the interruption.“Oh great, Megatron’s lapdog is here now. What're you going to do that's going to help out arguments?”

The purple Con walked out of the shadows. “Yes. You all have problems with each other and obviously don't believe in Megatron returning so the idea was we all go our separate ways. Well split up energon and resources.”

“That's...actually smart. Nice job Shockwave. If we do this I nominate to go to Earth. Ratbat. Do you agree to go with this plan?”

With a hint of hesitation in his voice he agreed, and from there the Decepticons split up. Constructicons, Rainmakers, Astrotrain, and the Seacons staying with him.

Ratbat left with the newest troops in the army to rumoured goldmine of technology and fuel, Nebulos. Weirdwolf through Darkwing, Octane, along with the combiner teams of the Predacons and Terrorcons.

That left Starscream to go to Earth with Skyward and Thundercracker, the Coneheads, “Welcoming Committee”(so called for being the worst security on Cybertron), Combaticons, Stunticons, Blitzwing, and Battlechargers.
