Transformers Roleplaying Part-5 The road to new beginning.

[IMT Guyver]

"Am i the leader destined to be the one who let cybertron be destroyed along with the Earth i have to do this inorder to save us all, so i'll meet you there ok"

Warmaker opens Com-link... to Darklight and transmits. Do not know…only time will tell… but once we all arrive on earth, I need you to come with Starscream and me. I explain more on the journey.... End Transmission

[Starscream_85]

"I know about Warp. I am afraid he is on the side of the Shadowcons and may never come back. We may have to kill him, it pains me too. I love him like Screamer, but I cannot allow him to continue this horrible thing. I will go to Starscream when he rises and we can both have a spark to spark." I shook my head. Poor Screamer.....

[Lithium]

*Lithium gave a gasp as something strange suddenly crashed into her. Everything went dark and before her stood Primus himself. Megatron stood on his left, Optimus stood on his right. Primus and Megatron stayed silent as Optimus walked to towards her, carrying a large cybertronian sword.
He looked into her optics and said, "Lithium, I don't know how long I'll be in the void but now that you're back online I need to know that you're safe."
He handed her the sword and took her blades away.
"Use this sword. I know you have been trained in long-sword combat. All those nights Ironhide used to train you in secret, I was hiding ... watching. If anybot's as capable of using this sword as I am, it's you." He smiles warmly and embraces her. "I don't know if I'll ever leave here, my love, but you'll be the first bot to know if I return. You must fight the shadowcons. They're not up to any good! Don't let them get to you! Help Darklight out in any way possible! Do you understand me?"
Lithium went numb. She would never have imagined anything like this would happen.
"Yes, of course ... But, how will any of us be able to do this without you? You're the one that kept us going!" She exclaimed.
Optimus sighed and Lithium did something she never thought she'd ever do. She kissed him with all the passion in her spark. It seemed to last a lifetime and yet they both wished it would last longer.
"I can't do this without knowing that sooner or later you're gonna be there by my side!" Lithium said.
"We will be together again, Lithium. I just don't know when ... " Optimus replied.
They held hands and after a moment everything went dark again. As light started to reappear and Lithium woke up again, she heard Optimus whisper in her ear, "No bonds could keep me from you're side."
Lithium got up and realized she was in some kind of control centre.
"Where am I?" She said to herself.*

*While in the void I decided that I needed to do something more. I was gonna head back to Earth. It was time to take back the planet that has home longer than recorded time.
I called out to Deepstryke and Skyfury to come to my side, when they did I laid out our new plans. We then grouped together and warped back to Earth, this time heading to an Isolated area of Death Valley. There we began to rebuild the new Shadowcon base of command. While building the base I made sure that the base had a built in cloaking device that masked its location from any unwanted visitors. I also made sure that we had new leverage. Upon finishing the base we brought back Megatron and Optimus Prime from the void. They had received stasis cuff before reentering and were placed in holding cells made of Tyrinium alloy that is a rare metal stronger than any known Cybertronian metal. Leaving the two former leaders to glear at us, I then left not wanting to discuss anything with my warriors in front of them. We went up to the control room. I then said,*

“It is almost time, we will take this planet as ours and no one will stop us…But first I need to get an old friend here.” I said then opened a com link to Skywarp and said, “Skywarp, I need you back on earth follow my signal and warp here at once. We have work to do.” I said with a wicked glear in my optics that made the others look at each other.


*OOC* the new shadowcon base has a cloaking devise over it.

*Lithium hears a voice in her mind and recognizes it as Optimus's, "Lithium, I have been imprisoned in a shadowcon base. Alert Darksaber!"*

Perceptor "just a few more modifications and i'm all done Darklight"

"In memory of my friend i am no longer to be know by that name i am now DARKSABER leader of the Autobots and i have decided i will scan a truck and trailer to honour Optimus Prime aswell the power of two great leaders accumulates into one Autobot an no Shadow will stop me from bringing peace to the galaxy" Darksaber says

*Lithium turns around, startled. She walks over to Perceptor and Darksaber.
"General Darksaber, something just happened to me and you need to know about it," she says, pulling out Optimus's sword to show them. She tells them everything that just happened. She also gave them Optimus and Megatron's coordinates.*
We have to do something and fast! That's my love out there and I'm not going to let him die!

*Meanwhile, Optimus turns to Megatron.
"How did things ever get this way?" He sighed. "Am I the only one that misses the way Cybertron used to be?"*

megatron: as well as i prime

[megatron42]

firehawk this is astrotrain... bringing soundwave back to earth
acknowledge

[Starscreamisthebest]

Starscream's lips mutter this: "Skywarp, you are in a hell of trouble, my friend."...Skywarp answered back with such vocal force pressure it will probably expand Starscream's shell of a skull to the point of near explosion:

"My brother, why do come to Earth to meet your inevitable doom? And yet, you bring your other soul mates along with you. Flee now, for I do not want to see the day when you perish at my feet. You recklessly fly towards a certain death. Do you not know of the hordes of Shadowcons on Earth? We have a hidden laboratory and have programmed drones to assemble them, ha, ha, ha. It would be like the living coming to fight the dead. As you will most certainly be not only out numbered, but out powered as well. I want to save you this humility Starscream...for a soldier of your rank and stature should know better....and live to fight another day!"

(Still in recharge) Starscream listens as Skywarp responds. Unwavered, he responds one more time.
"Skywarp, you are a fool. You cannot dissuade me from anything. Hordes of Shadowcons, i don't care. We will BRING YOU DOWN. You can laugh now, but after this is done and over with, I will be the one laughing. I will fight you another day, because obviously i'm in deep space and will not get to Earth until tomorrow. Word you sentences better. You were my friend and ally. Now i just see that you are a power-gathering traitor. That sounds like me, sure. But you're more than that, in ways I cannot explain. So, you moving slagheap, next time we meet...you better be prepared."

Warmaker walks in, see Starscream laying down recharging, leans forward, and says. "Still the some old Scream hey trying to recharge to get more power...only joking with you there on that one... Long time no see need help do you? Ha-ha, I have been looking high and low for you since... you did not come a see me after my arrival aboard Nemesis. I know you where going to, and yes I was showing off again and Once we get to earth I need you to come with me and I will contact darklight to come as well".

Starscream, after finishing retorting back to Skywarp, hears Warmaker's voice in his head. He had completely forgotten about seeing Warmaker, but that was understandable with the other things going around in his head. Those thoughts were now gone. Skywarp's words had made up his mind. His processors cooled down and his energy recharged, he onlined his optics as the diode cables disconnected with a hiss. Sitting up with now clear, focused optics he saw Warmaker on the other side of the small room. Standing up tall, he looked the other Decepticon right in the optics.
"I apologize for not coming to see you when you arrived. My mind was in other places. I'm glad you got on the ship with no trouble. Yes, i will go with you when we arrive. But please excuse me for a moment so i can go put the rest of the crew in order." Starscream said. Then he nodded his head slightly and left the room. His face got serious.

"I know about Warp. I am afraid he is on the side of the Shadowcons and may never come back. We may have to kill him, it pains me too. I love him like Screamer, but I cannot allow him to continue this horrible thing. I will go to Starscream when he rises and we can both have a spark to spark." I shook my head. Poor Screamer.....

Starscream walks into the command room of the Nemesis once again, shouting out orders as he does so.
"Okay, Decepticons, listen up! Thundercracker, look out for the Autobot ship on the radar. Reflector, slow down the ship and see if the Autobots can catch up to us. When they catch up to us, we will meet up with them. Why?"

"What I'm about to say now is a mission debriefing of sorts. I will say this only once. The mechs we are up against are called Shadowcons. They are powerful mechs, most likely more powerful than us. They can taint your spark and make you what they call 'whole'. It is a brain-washing kind of thing. When engaging this enemy, do not let them near your spark chamber, as they grab it to make you whole, and always look behind you in case another Shadowcon is there. They are also very hard to track, as they can cloak themselves and their energy signatures. Their leader, Shadow, has stolen and now possesses the Heart of Cybertron. Our mission objective is to stop them at all costs. The only catch is that since they are strong, the Autobots and ourselves need to team up together against the Shadowcons. You got that?" Starscream finished, looking around the room.
"I hope you do. After the Autobots catch up, we will speed up again and will arrive at Earth very shortly. So anyone who needs to recharge, the time is probably now." he finished and watched as everyone set to their own tasks either going to the recharge chambers or working the ship controls. Catching a look in Thundercracker's optics, Starscream blinked and walked over to his brother-in-arms and sat across from him.
"Do you need to talk to me, TC?" he asked, looking at him.

(OOC: Oh my god. That was the longest, motivational-like post i've ever made. Can i go collapse now?)

[Skywarp]

(Still in recharge) Starscream listens as Skywarp responds. Unwavered, he responds one more time.
"Skywarp, you are a fool. You cannot dissuade me from anything. Hordes of Shadowcons, i don't care. We will BRING YOU DOWN. You can laugh now, but after this is done and over with, I will be the one laughing. I will fight you another day, because obviously i'm in deep space and will not get to Earth until tomorrow. Word you sentences better. You were my friend and ally. Now i just see that you are a power-gathering traitor. That sounds like me, sure. But you're more than that, in ways I cannot explain. So, you moving slagheap, next time we meet...you better be prepared."

*Skywarp heard Starscream's voice via his newly enhanced mental telepathy, not via the com-link Starscream was trying to contact him on as he had no use for such primitive devices now that he was a Shadowcon and could tap into the Nexus. After listening intently, hoping to hear that Starscream had come to his senses, the message that followed not only infuriated Skywarp but also made him swear to himself to keep Starscream's head as a trophy after they were foolish enough to come anyway.*

"Such poetic nonsense! You are living a pipe dream if you think you can lead your troops into the hornet's nest here on Earth otherwise known as the Hive. As that fool Megatron once said, "You couldn't lead antroids to a picnic!" And if you're willing to wash your hands of me now, then I've already forgotten you. I was prepared to offer you salvation and spare you your life. As for a power-gathering traitor....well you have written the book on that one, now haven't you? No matter the day you arrive, prepare for it as you would your funeral because all will be the same. And as far as the last laugh goes, we will see, it will be hard to laugh when you're face down in a pool of your own energon with your spark ripped out and burried. All the trash talking in the world won't boost your confidence, nor will it boost the morale of your troops. Because if I can see the fear inside of you millions of light years away, I know the ones closest to you can feel it as well."

*Skywarp breaks free from the Nexus and sends out a team of a dozen Shadowcons to start setting up perimeter "booby traps," and then he warps up to the control center and tests out the force field generator. This is a dual-layered force field. With the innermost shell being made of inpenetrable polycarbonite based compound and the outershell made of a tirrifium alloy one of the hardest, most resistant metals in the galaxy. Marveling at Nightshade's genius, Skywarp checks the power generator's efficiency and watches the surveillance monitors from inside.*

(OOC: Will check back later tonight)

[nightshade]

*I walked up behind Skywarp and said,*
"You have appapted well to using the Nexis, very good. You should check the monitors and see what Megatron and Prime are up to, they are not off line. I went and checked on them and they were brooding. When I went in they both looked up at me. I don't trust either of them and neither should you. I will be preparing myself for whats ahead, I will be in my quarters if you need me." I said and turned and walked out leaving him to tend to the monitors.

[megatron42]

as astrotrain laned the doors opened up... and soundwave emerged
my optics widened i said am i seeing things, soundwave is that you??
yes firehawk it's me i'm not longer a tape deck

[Skywarp]

*I walked up behind Skywarp and said,*
"You have appapted well to using the Nexis, very good. You should check the monitors and see what Megatron and Prime are up to, they are not off line. I went and checked on them and they were brooding. When I went in they both looked up at me. I don't trust either of them and neither should you. I will be preparing myself for whats ahead, I will be in my quarters if you need me." I said and turned and walked out leaving him to tend to the monitors.

*Skywarp turned around and seen his commander...*

"Yes, I have always been a fast learner, just never given the opportunity under Megatron's rule. I have both of them on monitor #3 and while I respect both of them as warriors, nothing appears to be out of the ordinary for now. They look bored and complacent, hopeless almost."...*Nightshade gives a nod of approval, states her current objectives, then walks off*..."Affirmative, Commander. I will contact you if anything unusual comes up." *Skywarp does a 360 degree scanner sweep of the compound area (range 200 miles). Next, he engages the compound cloaking feature, which also inhibits any form of tracking its coordinates. And finally, he engages the invisible force field, and sets the alarm system.

[Starscream_85]

*sighs and turns to Screamer*

"Yea..we need to talk somewhere alone. What I have to say is important and I want to have your undivided attention when I do."

[Starscreamisthebest]

*sighs and turns to Screamer*

"Yea..we need to talk somewhere alone. What I have to say is important and I want to have your undivided attention when I do."

Starscream sighs. "Very well." He glances down at Streak. "And do NOT follow us. I mean it." he says sternly. Starscream glances at the mechs doing their tasks a moment more, then he and TC exit the room and walk down the hallway. They enter a deserted room and close the door. Starscream sits down on one of the chairs, motioning for TC to sit in the one across from him.
"So...what do we need to talk about?" he asks calmly.

"Such poetic nonsense! You are living a pipe dream if you think you can lead your troops into the hornet's nest here on Earth otherwise known as the Hive. As that fool Megatron once said, "You couldn't lead antroids to a picnic!" And if you're willing to wash your hands of me now, then I've already forgotten you. I was prepared to offer you salvation and spare you your life. As for a power-gathering traitor....well you have written the book on that one, now haven't you? No matter the day you arrive, prepare for it as you would your funeral because all will be the same. And as far as the last laugh goes, we will see, it will be hard to laugh when you're face down in a pool of your own energon with your spark ripped out and burried. All the trash talking in the world won't boost your confidence, nor will it boost the morale of your troops. Because if I can see the fear inside of you millions of light years away, I know the ones closest to you can feel it as well."

Before TC could say anything, Skywarp's angry voice filled Starscream's head and he winced sharply as new threats and statements flooded his processors. Trying to shake away his words, he succeeded mostly but the statement 'I can see the fear inside of you millions of light years away' stayed, making him a little uncertain. He knew TC would have noticed his facial expressions change, but he looked at his brother-in-arms anyway, waiting for him to respond.

(OOC: Gotta sleep, guys. I'll check on the progress in the morning. )

[Starscream_85]

"Screamer, what is it? What's wrong?!" I quickly rushed over to his side.

[Shadow]

Back at Shadowcon HQ Shadow called for a gathering of the most senior Shadowcons. Specter, Chaos, Havoc, Warzone, Nightshade, Nightfire and even Skywarp. "Shadowcons!!! This is Shadow... I am calling a meeting in the reconstruction chamber. All senior Shadowcons report at once. Nightshade... bring Skywarp as well." Shadow stood tall and with determination as they all started to pile into the reconstrution chamber. To one side Firestarter and Backdraft were in their recharging chambers as they were fully opperational once more but recharging from the reconstructive prosses of their battle wounds. In the center of the room on one of the reconstruction tables laied Optimus prime. "As you can all see here... Shadow pointed to the table, is the great and not so powerfull Prime!!! Prime was awake but very low on energy and almost to the point of complete stases lock. "Even I Shadow am not so evil that I would let an icon, a symbol of power such as Prime waist away much as our former master Unicron would have done with us...Shadow looked over at Nightfire as if meaning that as he would never have let it happen again and would have died to stop Unicron from letting her waist away. She nodded back as if taking the hint and gave a second nod for him to countinue...So I will do the best thing I can think of for our lost brother Prime!! Shadow stepped up to Prime and plased his had over Prime's chest. Shadow's hand began to glow and it slowly sunk into the chestplate of the Autobot leader. The hand dropped lower and lower and Prime went limp. After a few seconds Shadow and Prime alike began to glow with a black/blue aura. Then Prime's body turned dark. His eyes opened and Shadow removed his hand. The locking clamps on the table let go and he sat up, his eyes glowed red and Shadow stepped to his side. " Behold!! Nemesis Prime!!! If the Autobots want their leader back then they can have him. Nemesis Prime!!! Your ex-friend Utramagnus is here and wants to do you harm. I give you Armorhide and what ever soldier drones you want to find and take his Spark."

Prime stood up and connected a com-link to another fellow ex-Autobot now Shadowcon, Armorhide... "Armorhide, meet me with a squad of drones. It looks like you and I have to welcome a few old friends back to Earth. And Im sure you will want to great your old frind and brother Ironhide as im sure he is with Ultramagnus looking fore me." Armorhide connected back through the com-link as Nemesis Primes's eyes lit up with a red fury of hate..."This is Armorhide here. If this is the will of the Shadows then so be it. I will meet up with you and a combat force and am eager to show my brother Ironhide the way of the Shadow or take his spark for not seeing the truth in the false ways he now lives." Shadow once again looked at Prime and Prime turned and walked out of the chamber to meet up with Armorhide to go out and show Ultramagnus and Ironhide the truth behind their false ways.

[nightshade]

*Hearing Shadows request, I got Skywarp, and the two pf us went into the reconstruction chamber. upon entering I saw that Shadow had Optimus on a table. I watched intently as he caused him to turn into Nemisis Prime. I then glanced over at Skywarp, who was just staring. I turned back and watched as he left. I then looked at Shadow then the others.*

[IMT Guyver]

Starscream sighs. "Very well." He glances down at Streak. "And do NOT follow us. I mean it." he says sternly. Starscream glances at the mechs doing their tasks a moment more, then he and TC exit the room and walk down the hallway. They enter a deserted room and close the door. Starscream sits down on one of the chairs, motioning for TC to sit in the one across from him.
"So...what do we need to talk about?" he asks calmly.

Warmaker walks out of the charging chamber and starts walking around Nemesis and see TC and Starscream walk off and counties looking for a place to meditate as he walks around the corner as Streak runs into Warmaker. Warmaker says, “what the slag…You look like you are in a hurry but can you help me? I’m looking for a quiet place to meditate in and gather my thoughts...” Streak replies “no must find….” “No Need to… I heared Screamer ask you not the follow him, but you can help me if you wish. I know I look big and scary begin a new face around here but I want hurt you. Me and Starscream go back a long time, I’m sure he want mind you helping me” steak looks up and nodes his head to say yes “Follow meet… this out…. Come on hurry up this way” streak says as they move around nemesis until steak stop and points to a room. “I think that room should do fine you…. You will be pleased yes?” Warmaker stands there a moment, looks around, and says, “Looks like a holding cell to me but yes it will do fine…. I understand you do not trust me and this way you can keep an eye on me as well. I like the way you think whats your name anyway”.“Streak” Warmaker walks into the room and turns a 360 in the centre of the room and kneels and nodes his head for streak to close the doors and says “This will do fine you have an enough security in hear to watch and record every thing I say and do and you can feel safe”. Lifts his head and smiles.

[IMT Guyver]

Warmaker shuts down close enough to stases lock and thinks to himself. I hate doing this…. *I wonder if I still can… connect to Nightshade and see what she sees from this Distance… He tries many many times until his last a temp. The imagers are blurry and faint at best but Warmaker can, just work out someone or something has there hand in prime’s chest in the centre of the room on a table and says “Nightshade”.* Then the connection brakes.

[IMT Guyver]

Warmaker boots back up to full power and stands up and starts punching the tirrifium alloy door calling out “Streak….Streak are you still there? If you open the door, I must see Starscream. Are you there I have something to tell you all” Streak sees dents forming on the door as Warmaker punches it and slowly opens the small panel on the door and sees warmakers silver eyes flash black and back to silver. Warmaker stops punching the door as Streak open's the panel and says "don’t be scared Streak I’m not going to hurt you or anyone on this ship.... I would like to tell you what’s going on but first i must speak with Starscream.... I promises you i'm not going to hurt anyone. You can be there when i tell Starscream what i need to tell him so please inform him i need to speak to him a.s.a.p"

[nightshade]

Warmaker shuts down close enough to stases lock and thinks to himself. I hate doing this…. I wonder if I still can… connect to Nightshade and see what she sees from this Distance… He tries many many times until his last a temp. The imagers are blurry and faint at best but Warmaker can, just work out someone or something has there hand in prime’s chest in the centre of the room on a table and says “Nightshade”. Then the connection brakes.

*After watching Nemisis Prime leave, I grew quiet and in thought as I was thinking of the sudden feeling of someone watching through my eyes, feeling the intrusion I broke contact by blocking all thoughts. I grew cold and distant for a moment, but long enough for the others to notice.*

[megatron42]

soundwave dispatch lazerbeak and findout more on nemesis prime...
i'm going to retreave megatron... as you wish firehawk, i watch lazerbeak fly off
now to get megatron, i fly off with his homing devise i'm able to find him
astrotrain get here NOW i said

[Starscreamisthebest]

"Screamer, what is it? What's wrong?!" I quickly rushed over to his side.

Starscream winced slightly again. "It's Skywarp. He keeps trying to dissuade me from leading you to Earth. Now it's just harsh words that he knows affects my processors like a sword in your back." he pinched the bridge of his nose. "He knows that I want to put him offline. I'm afraid he wants to do the same." He took a sharp intake of breath as a headache started to creep into his train of thought.

“Streak….Streak are you still there? If you are open the door I must see Starscream. Are you there I have something to tell you all” Streak sees dents forming on the door as Warmaker punches it and slowly opens the small panel on the door and sees warmakers silver eyes flash black and back to silver.

Streak opened the door fully and Warmaker stepped out. "Something to tell us all?" she asked. "Yeah...you can see Starscream, but i'm pretty sure him and TC are still having their private conversation." she said, looking up at the taller mech.

[IMT Guyver]

“Thank you Streak" Warmaker place's his hand on her head once again. "Take me to Starscream and TC they both are going to want to hear this". Streak and warmake arrive where Starscream and TC are talking. streak says "knock first" Warmaker pushers open the door to the room where Starscream and Tc are talking and says "long time not see got to say like the new look I remember the old you back on Cybertron Starscream. So you have final taken over Megatron rule and got your own Army now… where was I….yes that’s it… While I was close to stases lock, so I couldmeditate. I tried to connect with nightshade and I was about to stop trying on my last attempt I connected for a very short time and sore something or someone putting there hand in Prime and changed him some how. I heard that his name is now nemesis prime and but the sounds of a name like that its not going to be a good thing. Yes I know you have questions all I can say is all will be explained after we meet up with darklight once we arrive on earth old friend trust me that’s all I ask of you.” Warmaker said

[Shadow]

OOC... ok I just want to clear up a few things. 1st the Shadowcons are now bots as this is the form we took on that would best fit and would be our best way to survive. In our past we were called the Shadows and we were just a mass of shadow like vapor. we still use the ability to shift from a solid(bot form) to a vapor or liquid state of our past selfs. Also to megatron: I know you want to get Megatron back but its not possable. He is captive for one, his energon sig is way to low for him to be detected, and the D-cons will get him back in due time... trust me. With bots like Prime and Megatron I would never do anything that would cause them to be killed off so please dont think im going to do that. As for prime now being Nemesis Prime... I did this to have a way for Prime to be used again in the rp and cause some conflict with the new leader Darklight of the Autobots. Either he will have to kill Prime and keep his role of leadership or find a way to chang him back and once again give up leadership to Prime. As for our Base... at this time it can not be found and again this will change at some point as soon as I find a way to draw Megatron back into the fray.

[Nightfire]

back in the reconstruction chamber Nightfire was standing next to Nightshade when she got a feeling that something or someone was trying to reach out to Nightshade. Nightfire closed her optics and saw that another bot was trying to see through Nightshade. Nightfire's aigus circut around her head glowed with a light bright purple/gold light and she reach over to Nightshade and linked with her sisters mind. " I dont know who you are and why you look apon us through my sister but it will not be as long as I am at my sister's side. I will not sit by and let another spy through my sister's mind. Hold still sis, this will hurt just a bit." Nightfire started chanting something in a tone that was not heard by the others in a very long time. Nightfire sent a small shock into her sister and it was sent through space and time into the mind of the bot that had been looking through Nightshade. The shock hit the other bot and was just strong enough to break the connection that it had with Nightshade. Nightfire looked back over to Nightshade and said... You will not have to worry my sister I will always be at your side and if this intruder that has looked through you to spy on us wants to come, thin I will take great pride in showing him the ways of his foolery. THIS WARMAKER WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO LOOK THROUGH US AS LONG AS I STAND BY YOUR SIDES!!!!

[Shadow]

Shadow looked over as Nightshade seemed to be caught off guard by something and looked over at Skywarp. Then Nightfire stepped up and did something to Nightshade as she chanted something not heard in thousands of years. "Sister Nightfire... what seems to be the problem? You used the Shadow ritual of blocking. Who or what has made a grave mistake in trying to see through Nightshades eyes?"
