The Energon Pub

chapter 1:just another day

It was just another 'casual' day in detroit, people going about their busy lives even after the damage inflicted onto the city by the decepticons, who for weeks now haven't been active. The autonots led by Optimus prime were relaxing, well most except Optimus who has been watching the monitors and police radar for any signs of decepticons. Bumblebee came up to him asked, "Hey boss-bot, why don't you relax? The decepticons haven't been active since we kicked their skid plates." optimus turned round and answered, "just because their has been no decepticon activity dosent mean we should take a break from our duty protecting Detroit"
"ok, well in that case ill be off prowl has suckered me into going to one of those buildings with ols dusty bones and rocks"
"you mean a mueseum," prowl said emerging from the shodow in the corer of the room.
"And a think we should take the time to learn about the early human civilisations and lifeforms that came before them."
"sure im not interested! I wana go to-"
before bumblebee could finish the police scanner went off reporting that, "several large black robots have been sighted near the detroit geological dig area, they are armed, i repeat they are armed!"
bumblebee gave a sigh of relief that he didnt have to go with prowl but that relief was cut short when optimus said, "I will handle this myself, it's probably the headmaster, should be easy eneogh to handle myself."
with that bumblebee started stomping the ground, wishing he didn't have to go with prowl after he bested him a hundred times in a game called rock paper siccors.



chapter 2:
eight shall stand, one will fall.

optimus had arrived at the geological dig along with ratchet. people were running and screaming while camera bots were closing in on the area of the disturbance.
optimus had stepped forward when a bolt of dark enrergy sent him flying back, the source came from eight figures covered in dark clouds of mist. before optimus could get up onto his feet, a tall figure lanced toward him with a triple bladed weapon, holding it up high when optimus took out his axe and blocked the atack. BUT! his axe cant take the strain much more so he used the rocket booster to slice up through the blade striking the figure in the shest, ripping its armour. when optimus got to his feet he could see green mist coming out from where he struck the figure. before he could do anything, all eight figures dissapeared, nowhere to be seen.
"what do you think they were ratchet?", asked optimus while whiping green vapour off his axe. looking at a large structure embeded into the rockface, with strange sybols and carvings ratchet replied, "Not what they were but rather where they came from, what the geologists uncovered here is some kind of space bridge that must have been set off by there activity, but what baffles me is that i can date it from centries before the first cybertronian space bridges?" ratchet was scratching his head confused until optimus said, " we'll i am quite sure youll figure it out soon but for now lets head back to base, i think all that monitor watching has me wanting to power down for a few nano-clicks."
what optimus didnt realise was that that the source of this need to power down was a small, round green leech thing latched onto his back!

chapter 3:

prowl and bumblebee were at the museum were a new exhibition had recently opened. The exhibition had tablets and strange statues as well as artifacts, all related to the area prime and ratchet had been.
"facinating, these artifacts are related to a civalisation that has long since perished", prowl said fascinated. the main item at the museum that caught his attention was a large wall with symbols and a large outline of a figure that appeared to be robotic or armoured. "Just a bunch of relics, why would anyone want to come here anyway", yawned bumblebee who was not interested in the artifacts on display.

**********************************************************

"I think i should be leader as i am a thinker unlike the rest of you knock-offs!" said one of the starscream clones who had started the argument between the rest of the clones.
"how pathetic a buch of clones squabling like protoforms over an energon snack-oooh can i have one mwahahahahahah",said blitzwing.
"well none of that matters as our temporary leader will be arriveing soon to lead us decepticons to victory until our mighty master returns," answered lugnut starring up at the sky, wonderin g if megatron was still alive.
"well when will he be here?" replied blitzwing.
"soooooooonn!"

chapter 4:
rise of Nemisis

Later that day when the autobots returned to their HQ they had powered down for the night when something was happening to Optimus. The green leech thing had detached and died.
*********************************************
The next day when the autobots awoke Bulkhead had called them to the TV.
"Guys i think you should check this out!", he said. As they gathered around the news reporter was saying, "Last night two thugs were mercilissly killed by an unknown assailent. The only clue the police have is CCTV footage taken around 01.00 am. The footage reveals that it was a 'large black and silver cybertronian', is this a new decepticon or something else! We will have more later on."
"Do you think its a decepticon?",asked Bumblebee looking towards Prime.
Optimus replied, "I dont know? Why would a decepticon attack two human thugs? It dosent make sense?"
The autobots were making their way towards the crime scene when all of a sudden they were attacked by the beings that optimus and ratchet ran into the other day.
"What do you want?",growled Ratchet.
one of the clouded beings replied, "We want to rule this universe, that is what we want. so stay out of our way and nobody will get hurt, MUCH!!"
Optimus herocily answered, "I am sorry but i wont let you as long as there is energon flowing through my circuits, decepticons !"
The being that had attacked optimus replied, " WE ARE NOT these decepticons you speak of, and you will bow to us!"
"NEVER!!!"
Then the autobots watched in shock as Optimus prime was knelling on the ground in pain, his armour changing in not only colour, but shape as well.
When optimus arose he was different! his armour cast in black and silver.
the being replied, "As i was saying we are not decepticons, we are.....MAKUTA!!! And your apparent leader is now under our control........"
