- [Narrator]
Transformers, Energon.
- Transformers!
(gentle accoustic music)
- Go ahead, you're
clear to enter.
Hmm, who was that?
- Alexis!
- Sally!
(laughing)
- You look great, Sally.
- Well, thank you.
Boy, you know, I
thought I would never
get in here to see you
because of Demolisher standing
guard back at the entrance.
- That reminds me.
We have to round up
everyone for a meeting.
- What?
I thought we'd
have time together.
But I guess you have
tons of VIP work to do.
Oh, that's okay.
Hey, have you seen
my brother around?
- Yeah, sure.
He's around.
And he'll be at the meeting.
- He'll show up,
but I bet he won't listen
to anything you say.
- Huh?
- [Kicker] Oh, man.
I can't believe Dad made
this battle suit for me.
It's like, loaded with
everything I'll ever need.
And it fits perfect.
I'm ready for anything.
(alarm blaring)
(gasp)
- Oh, no!
We must be under attack again!
I got to hurry up and-- ahh!
Oww.
- [Announcer] Attention
all Ocean City residents.
Please assemble
immediately in Sector A.
- Is that it?
- Tidal Wave.
Tidal Wave.
- Look, that's Tidal Wave.
And what happened to him?
- [Hot Shot] I don't
know, but he sounds weird.
- Whoa, check him out!
- Zoom in.
- Tidal Wave.
Tidal Wave.
- They're eating energon.
- That's what it looks like.
- Kicker!
(somber music)
- What you have just witnessed
was the latest satellite
transmission we received
from Cyber City on Mars,
that was att*cked yesterday.
Obviously, those
Transformers were after
our energon, Optimus.
- Go on, Alexis.
- We scanned our database,
and we've deduced that our enemy
is a high-tech pack of
androids called Terrorcons,
but where they come
from precisely,
we still haven't been
able to pinpoint.
- And if that's the case,
then we can assume
their next target
will be the energon
mines here on Earth.
- And you'd be correct, but...
We have a serious problem,
because we're bound by the
Earth Federation Treaty.
Under Section F, it
states that Transformers
shall not take up arms
against other Transformers.
- [Kicker] You can't be serious!
- Huh?
(gasps)
- So what are we supposed to do?
Just sit back and watch?
- Cool it, Kicker.
- Kicker!
- Answer me!
- We have rules we must follow.
And while certain rules
sometimes don't make any sense,
we can't attack unless we
are under a serious threat.
To organize a first
strike as*ault
would clearly be a
violation of our treaty.
Sorry, Kicker.
- Oh, please, give
me a break, Alexis.
Don't you get it?
We're like sitting ducks
here, waiting to get--
Huh?
Hey, would you put
me down, Optimus?
(grunts) Come on, I'm serious!
- [Alexis] Unfortunately,
that leaves us
with only one clear cut option.
To evacuate immediately.
Otherwise, we can't
guarantee the safety
of anyone here on Earth.
- [Kicker] Forget it!
I'm not going anywhere,
'cause Earth is my home!
And I'll take on these
flying creeps myself!
- What's his problem?
- [Optimus] Alexis?
- Huh?
- Don't worry about Kicker.
He can stay behind
with my men and I.
(crowd murmuring)
- [Alexis] But Optimus!
- Trust me.
He'll be safe.
And we need him, because of
his ability to detect energon.
And I promise you, we will
not violate the treaty.
We are here to defend Earth,
not to attack our enemy.
- You're right.
I really doubt anyone
could ever convince Kicker
to leave here, Optimus.
- You know, I think you just
might be right about that.
- Hey, thanks a lot.
And you be careful.
- Right.
And as for you, you
better follow orders!
- You can't make me leave!
What did you say?
- I wonder if the Omnicons
are going to be evacuated.
- Don't worry about
them, Strongarm.
We've got enough
to keep us busy.
Now let's get back to work.
Come on!
- (sighs) I hate being a grunt.
(gentle acoustic music)
- [Kicker] I'm counting
on you to explain
why I'm not leaving
to my mom, Alexis.
- You stay out of
trouble, okay, Kicker?
- Don't worry about me.
Just go!
(wind blowing)
- Oh, man.
It's going to be
weird without them.
- [Ironhide] Okay,
Kicker, listen up.
Optimus gave me very strict
orders to keep an eye on you.
- Ah, give me a break.
- I don't like this any
better than you do, kid.
(phone beeps)
- Hey, are you listening?
- Whatever.
- [Optimus] Attention, men.
We are moving to
Defcon level four.
Repeat, Defcon level four.
We have not verified
the location
or the numbers of enemy troops
about to attack Cybertron City.
We do know they
are after energon.
All humans have been
successfully deployed
to safe shelters
outside the city.
That is all.
(dramatic music)
- [Mika] Did you
hear that, Kicker?
- [Kicker] Yeah, yeah.
But you know what?
I am so tired of speeches, Mika.
- I guess I'm
tired of them, too.
And that's why I'm staying
behind, just like you.
What do you think?
- No, you can't!
You got to get out
of here right now!
It's way too dangerous!
- [Mika] Don't worry
about me, Kicker.
I'll be all right, really.
(mechanical whirring)
- [Mika] Hello, Kicker?
Are you still there?
Kicker!
- Yeah, yeah, I'm still here.
You just be careful, okay, Mika?
- [Mika] I will, and you too.
- Humans.
Always getting so emotional.
What a complete waste of energy.
And what's even worse?
Optimus assigns me to guard one.
Hmph.
(militaristic music)
- [Ironhide] I should
be fighting the others.
But no.
I should be on Optimus's team.
But no.
I should have the
Spark of Combination
that Primus gave Optimus.
But no!
I got nothing!
But one day, I will.
Nah, who am I kidding?
I'm a low man on the totem
pole around this place.
- Hey, Ironhead, aren't you
supposed to be babysitting me?
(suspenseful music)
(spaceship engine roars)
(crazy laughter)
- Oh boy, I can hardly wait
for the battle to get started.
Will they hit here?
Or here?
Or here?
(crazy laughter)
I'm tingling all over!
(crazy laughter)
(explosions)
- Oh, no.
(Terrorcons whizzing by)
- (yells) Come and get it!
(laser g*ns firing)
(intense music)
- [Optimus] The moon?
I thought for sure their
next target would be Earth.
- Our moon base just
radioed for backup, Optimus.
- Jetfire, can I count on you?
- Yes sir.
Are you sure you have enough
firepower here on Earth?
- I think we'll be fine.
And use the space bridge,
it'll be faster than raising
the city for you to launch.
- Yes sir.
I'm on my way.
- Inferno, you provide cover
for Jetfire while he launches.
Just in case we come under fire.
- Right!
(militaristic music)
- [Kicker] Hey, hold up!
- Um, why did we tag along?
- Why, Ironhide?
- I want to earn my
Combination Spark,
so I can combine
with Hot Shot, sir.
- No!
And that's final,
understand, Ironhide?
I've teamed you up with Kicker.
- But sir!
- [Jetfire] No buts, pal.
You're on babysitting duty,
or don't you think
you can handle that?
- You think I'm a baby
that needs sitting?
Well, I'll show you
what I'm made of.
I'm going with you to
kick some Terrorcon butt!
- Optimus!
- (sighs) I just don't know
what to do with that kid.
Okay, he's all yours, Jetfire.
- You heard the dude!
Let's roll!
(engine roaring)
- All right.
Can't believe I got
that monkey off my back.
- Jetfire!
(grunting)
- And we have liftoff!
(triumphant music)
- [Optimus] All systems
go to elevate Cyber City.
(triumphant music)
- Activate space bridge.
(laser sh**ting)
- Huh?
- Well, it's time
to go, Ironhide.
- Right, sir.
- And if you do a
good job, buddy,
I'll make sure Optimus
knows about it.
- Are you serious, sir?
- Yeah.
- Oh, you don't know how
much I appreciate that, sir.
And I promise, I'll do my best.
- Hey, just relax.
Would you quit calling me sir?
We're moving out, Inferno!
- Roger that.
- [Optimus] Wait.
- Huh?
- I'm expecting something.
- But sir, they're waiting
for us on the moon.
- Never mind.
It's here.
(mechanical whirring)
- Huh?
What?
- [Inferno] You're bringing
the Omnicons with us, Optimus?
- Give me a break.
There's no way I'm going
anywhere near a battle.
- Instead, we brought
your newly processed
energon ships to
give you a boost.
- Serious?
- Don't move.
- Huh?
(energon sh**ting)
- What just happened to me?
(energon sh**ting)
- What's this?
- Those are energon cells.
- Well, let me put it
this way, Hot Shot.
We've just boosted
your power big time.
- (laughs) All right!
- But remember to
use it sparingly,
because it might not last
through an entire battle, 'kay?
- Okay, men.
Let's move out!
(intense music)
(exposions)
- [Jetfire] Yeah, baby!
Bull's eye!
- We got another
bogey at two o'clock.
(beeping)
(expl*si*n)
- [Kicker] And now we
got one on our tail!
Let's shake it, Jetfire!
- [Jetfire] Hang on!
(g*ns firing)
(explosions)
- Way to go, kid.
You're one wicked wingman!
- Yeah, but we can't hold
them off much longer.
Where's Optimus?
(g*ns firing)
(w*apon spins)
- Jetfire!
Incoming!
- [Jetfire] Whoa!
That was a close one.
- Huh?
Dive!
Come on, Jetfire,
get in the game!
(weapons spinning)
- Oh no!
Incoming from all sides!
(expl*si*n)
- Huh?
Sharp let, Jetfire, and
don't try anything fancy.
(beeping)
(expl*si*n)
- [Jetfire] Say goodbye!
(explosions)
- [Kicker] Looks like
we've got backup!
(zapping)
- [Optimus] Jetfire,
Kicker, give me an update.
- They've found the energon!
- [Jetfire] Optimus, we'll
handle the perimeter.
You head down and see if
you can save the energon.
- [Optimus] I'm on it.
(zapping)
(intense music)
- [Optimus] Hot Shot!
Ironhide!
Time to transform!
- Yes sir!
- Yes sir!
- Optimus Prime, transform!
(upbeat techno music)
- Hot Shot, transform!
- Ironhide, transform!
- They've taken a
serious beating, sir.
Huh?
(eerie techno music)
(small explosions)
- Aw man, that was close!
(g*n firing)
- They just keep on coming!
- Okay, men.
The energon mine
should be just ahead.
- I'll go, sir.
Cover me!
- All right, Ironhide,
but remember,
don't rely too heavily
on your energon.
And be careful!
- Yes sir!
(g*ns firing)
(panting)
- Give me your best shot,
you useless Terrorcons!
You can't stop me!
(screams)
Okay, maybe I take that back.
(intense music)
- This is it.
Boy, what a mess.
Hm?
This has got to be
the elevator shaft.
(grunts)
Well, I guess it's now or never.
(yells)
(beams crashing)
(Terrorcon roars)
- Sorry, boys, but
you're trespassing!
Hey!
Another step and
you get blasted!
(yelling)
Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!
(yells)
(expl*si*n)
- Huh?
Hot Shot!
I've used all my energon.
- I'm tapped too, sir.
This doesn't look good.
Optimus!
It's Jetfire and Kicker!
- [Kicker] Hey, guys!
Doesn't look like there's
too many of them out here.
- What about below the surface?
- No clue.
But I'm going to find out.
- Right behind you.
(yells)
- You pint-sized pains
are getting on my nerves!
And even if I'm out of
energon, you're going down!
Now, who wants a
piece of me, huh?
- What the?
No, Ironhide!
Don't do it!
Don't touch it!
- Huh?
(screams)
- That was dumb.
He knows he can't handle
energon before it's refined.
Ironhide!
(expl*si*n)
(suspenseful music)
- Ironhide!
Are you all right?
- What?
Yeah, he's fine, thanks to me.
- (sighs) That's a relief.
(Terrorcons growling)
- I got 'em!
You're not going
anywhere, creeps!
- Ironhide, are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine, Hot Shot.
I just had a little accident.
(gasp)
(Terrorcons growling)
- Huh?
Oh no!
They're coming out
of the woodwork!
(g*ns firing)
- Aw, man!
They got away.
(zapping)
- Transform!
(hatch opening)
- Just hang in there,
okay, Ironhide?
- It's all my fault
we lost the battle.
- It's nobody's fault.
Now get that through
your head, understand?
- Thanks, Hot Shot, but I
know I screwed up the mission,
and I can't help but blame-
- Aw, would you
chill out already?
- How could I have
been such an idiot
and touched the
energon like that
without even thinking first?
- Yeah, well, you work that out.
- [Optimus] Kicker!
- What?
- I ordered you to
team up with Ironhide.
Or did you forget that?
- Aw, give me a break.
- If you want to
ignore my orders,
then I have no choice but to
send you back to your mother.
- You wouldn't!
- Try me.
- Okay, partners, I'll
go talk to him then.
- So, how's it going, big guy?
- Did you just kick me, huh?
How'd you like it
- You got a problem with that?
if I kicked you back?
(growling)
- Well it looks like
you're back to normal.
- You're going to pay for this!
(laughing)
- Okay, I've had just
about enough of you, kid!
(Ironhide and Kicker yelling)
- [Optimus] Well,
it looks like things
are back to normal again.
- [Demolisher] So, Optimus,
what happened on the moon?
- Huh?
- If I were you Demolisher,
I'd show a little more
respect to your leader.
- Sorry, but you're still
Autobots to me, Jetfire.
Cyclonus was
working on the moon.
What's his status, Optimus?
- We never saw him.
- What?
Serious?
You mean to say there was no
trace of him or Tidal Wave?
- To be honest, we
never had a chance
to search for them, Demolisher.
- No way.
We've got to go back.
- Hang on a minute.
- What is it, sir?
- Nothing.
- [Alpha Q] So, what is it
that Optimus Prime is thinking?
A penny for your
thought, Autobot.
I think I know!
Maybe he's starting
to smell the stench
of a great Decepticon
army rising from the ashes
to challenge his authority!
(maniacal laughter)
But do not let me
get ahead of myself.
He still has a new
enemy to deal with.
An enemy so powerful it
will make the Decepticons
look like mere
children's playthings.
(growl)
Allow me to introduce you
to your new adversary,
Optimus Prime.
An entity so powerful, you
won't know what hit you!
Oh, joy!
I can hardly wait for
the games to begin!
