Transformers Energon.

♪ Transformers ♪

- [Inferno] Cybertron Cities'

defenses have been weakened

by the relentless att*cks

of the Terrorcons.

But Kicker was able to lasso one

and use it to find

more of the Energon

we so desperately needed.

This gave us the strength to

drive back the Decepticons.

But our good fortune

was only temporary.

It seems our Energon had

been used to restore life

to the Autobots'

greatest foe, Megatron.

- I want all their

Energon immediately!

- [Inferno] Now, as the smoke

from the last battle clears,

the damage inflicted on our

base is nothing compared

to the pain we're

feeling at the sight

of one of our fallen comrades.

- Hot Shot, Hot Shot,

ya gotta wake up.

Please, ya got to, hmm?

(Megatron laughs)

- [Optimus] Megatron.

- (laughs) It's just

like old times, isn't it?

- [Kicker] Ugh, you monster!

- Kicker, don't do it.

(Cyclonus laughs)

(Kicker groans)

(Inferno Grunts)

- [Optimus] Hold your fire!

I know what you're

after, Megatron.

- [Megatron] Ha, well, this

certainly isn't a social visit.

- [Optimus] You

want our Energon.

- [Scorponok] Hmm.

- Then you're going after

Unicron, aren't you?

- Hmm, you know how

much I hate competition.

It has to be done.

(Scorponok laughs)

- You might think

you're powerful,

but you don't stand

a chance against him.

- [Ironhide] I'll take you on!

- [Optimus] Ironhide, this

isn't the time or place.

Look around you.

We are way outnumbered.

We are going to

withdraw and regroup.

(Ironhide groans)

- [Kicker] Optimus,

we gotta do something!

Look what he did to Hot Shot!

- [Optimus] No,

everyone is going back

to Ocean City at once.

Hot Shot too.

- [Ironhide] Hmm?

- [Optimus] His

well-being takes priority

over everything else.

- [Kicker] So we're

just gonna turn and run?

And let these Decepticons

steal our Energon?

- Sir!

- [Optimus] Megatron, if

you're so intent on taking

all our Energon, then you'll

have to go through me first!

- Well, that won't

be much of a fight,

not while I have

this sword with me.

Now would it, Prime?

Well, what are you

waiting for, hmm?

(tense music)

Huh, just as I thought.

I'll let you go this time.

- What?

(Cyclonus laughs)

- [Megatron] But in

return for sparing you,

I expect you to surrender

all your Energon

to me the next time we meet.

- There's no way, never!

- [Kicker] Rats!

- All right, Autobots,

let's withdraw.

(captivating music)

- [Q- ] The great

one is weakening.

I feel him slipping away.

- [Q- ] It's because Megatron

steals the Energon from him!

- [Q- ] Then we must send

a thief to steal it back!

And here he comes, here

he comes, Starscream!

(Qs laugh)

(equipment whirs)

- I really hope Hot Shot's

gonna be okay in there.

- He will, I'll see to it.

The liquified

Energon in this pool

will help restore his armor.

- Really, I thought Autobots

couldn't touch that stuff.

- [Ironhide] Hmm?

- No, it can work like

medicine in small doses.

It depends on how much

and what you use it for.

- [Signal Flare] I was able

to duplicate Megatron's sword

from the scan I took.

I'll be able to

make more very soon.

- [Optimus] Good, how

much time do you need?

- [Signal Flare]

By my calculations,

it will take another day to

get a batch of them ready.

- [Optimus] All right,

when they're done,

have an Omnicon deliver one

of them to each of the cities.

It will help in their defense.

- [Signal Flare] Yes sir.

- [Optimus] We'll use

Megatron's own w*apon

against him if we have to.

- Commander, what

about Demolishor?

- [Optimus] Where

is he now, Jetfire?

- [Jetfire] He's on guard

duty at the outer gate, sir.

- [Optimus] I see, that's fine.

- But he's a Decepticon!

- Ah, they expect me to

stare at the clouds all day.

Is that what it means to be

apart of the Autobot team?

(groans) I'm really starting

to miss the old days.

(tense music)

- [Battle Ravage Unit]

We have the Energon.

- [Divebomb Unit]

From the planet!

- What are you waiting for?

You know what to do with it.

Do you flying half-wits need

a command for everything?

Oh, very well, all

Terrorcons, release now!

The power of Energon

is truly amazing.

- (laughs) I guess you know

what you're talkin' about

'cause it got you back online.

- (laughs) It will take

a lot more than this

to bring Unicron back to life.

And once he's been restored

to his former glory,

I'll manipulate him

into doing all my

dirty work for me.

(Terrorcon screeches)

Hmm?

- [Terrorcon] Your humble

servants, the Terrorcons,

have a gift for you, master.

- Ah!

Ah, the power!

- (laughs) Well, since we

Decepticons can't touch Energon,

this is the perfect way

for you to receive it.

- Hmm, yes, that

makes sense to me.

Go, Terrorcons, bring

me more at once.

(Scorponok moans)

- It's working.

- Couldn't you be a

little more gentle?

- You used us, Scorponok.

You should be grateful that

I chose to repair you at all.

- [Scorponok] But I

helped revive Megatron!

- [Tidal Wave] All you

wanted was Megatron's power,

but you were too weak.

- [Scorponok] Wait, I

want to ask you something.

- [Tidal Wave] What is it?

- Megatron could have

destroyed Optimus Prime.

Why would he pass

up a perfect chance

like the one he had

back at the planet?

- [Tidal Wave] Mm, if

you can figure that out,

then maybe I'll begin

to trust you more.

- Uh, I think he

was just afraid.

- [Jetfire] Okay, Kicker,

Strongarm and other Omnicons

like him are

Transformers that travel

across space in

search of Energon.

They mine it and make

it into useful products.

Since they're the only

ones who can handle it

without it causing them harm,

they can be very useful.

Unfortunately, they're

still in search for a place

where they can

practice their craft

without being

harassed or exploited.

Ya understand?

- But Jetfire, why

are the Omnicons

always searching

for Energon anyway?

- [Jetfire] Why, well, let

me ask you the same thing.

Why do you go

searching for Energon?

- 'Cause I know that

it can bring peace.

- [Jetfire] But peace

always comes with a price.

- [Kicker] Uh?

- [Strongarm] Heads

up, comin' through!

(Strongarms grunt)

- [Jetfire] You see,

they're just doing

what they were created to do.

Y'know, sometimes I wish

I was more like 'em,

'cause they seem to know

exactly where they belong.

- Hmm, they know

where they belong.

- Ah, it's just not

the same anymore.

And this insignia used

to mean so much to me.

(alarm buzzes)

Huh, an alert!

- [Strongarm] Optimus!

- Huh?

- The duplicates of Megatron's

sword are now complete.

There was some leftover Energon.

- [Optimus] Ah.

Where's the spacebridge?

- [Strongarm] It's

not above the city.

- It's out on the water.

miles directly

south of Ocean City.

- [Kicker] There's

no Energon out there.

- [Optimus] A trap.

- [Jetfire] I'll

investigate, c'mon, Kicker.

You wanna go with me?

- [Kicker] For sure!

- [Optimus] Wait!

- Huh?

- [Optimus] Stay here, Kicker.

It could be dangerous.

You can give us support

from the control room.

- [Kicker] Oh, no way!

- [Optimus] Take off, Jetfire.

- [Jetfire] Yes sir!

- Hey, what's this all about?

- [Optimus] I don't

want you taking part

in these missions anymore!

- [Kicker] Why?

- Now that he's out there

it's just too big a risk.

- You mean Megatron, don't you?

- There's a danger

that he'll want

to acquire your

special abilities.

If you take part in battle,

he's sure to notice you.

- [Kicker] Hey, I can

take care of myself!

You're just making excuses

because you don't think

you can handle it, do ya?

- Now, listen, I can't guarantee

that I can protect you.

- Optimus?

- Commander, I'll go!

Please, let me go, sir.

Someone has to take

Hot Shot's place.

- All right, but stay close.

Let's go!

- Hey, what about me?

That bites, it's not fair.

- [Optimus] Optimus Prime,

super mode, Powerlinx!

(dramatic music)

Fire- , combine!

Copter- , combine!

Digger- , combine!

Submarine- , combine!

Optimus Prime, super mode!

(spacebridge crackles)

- [Jetfire] There

it is, but no enemy.

Commander, it's all clear.

- [Optimus] I'm

sure it's a trap.

Okay, Ironhide, I'm sending

you as backup, move out!

- [Ironhide] Sir!

(menacing music)

(Starscream laughs)

- (groans) What in the,

I mean, who was that?

(thunder crackles)

(alarm blares)

- All hands on deck.

Another spacebridge

is opening up

one mile directly

north of the city.

(tense music)

- [Optimus] This

is it, get ready.

- [Starscream] Prime...

- [Optimus] Huh? (yells)

- No, commander!

What? (groans)

- [Divebomb Unit] Attack!

- Where are you?

- [Starscream] Right here!

- [Optimus] Huh?

(both grunt)

(w*apon fires)

- [Optimus] Don't go yet.

(Starscream groans)

- [Optimus] Huh?

(Starscream groans)

- Huh?

(intense music)

What, is that Megatron?

- (pants) Hey, you guys,

they're overrunning the city!

- Kicker!

- Huh?

- Now I dunno if

it was Megatron,

but I encountered a mysterious

entity at the spacebridge.

- Hang in there, Jetfire.

Okay, tell me more about

what you saw out there.

(both grunt)

- Come back here!

(both yell)

- Uh, ooh, uh.

- (laughs) Surprised

to see me, Demolishor?

- Megatron,

so then it's true,

you really are alive.

- Move over,

Demolishor, he's mine.

- No, no, wait, Ironhide.

- I'm gonna get

revenge for Hot Shot.

- [Demolishor] Oh, don't do it!

You're no match for him.

- Let go, don't you

understand I have to do this?

- Why?

- Because that rat Megatron

almost destroyed

my friend Hot Shot.

(thunder crackles)

- Sorry, I didn't

even know that.

(Ironhide grunts)

- [Demolishor] Ooh.

- (groans) Why'd ya hit me?

- I'm tired of hiding what

I am, sorry, Ironhide.

- What are you

doing, Demolishor?

- Uh, I'm yours, Megatron.

- Prove your loyalty by

opening up this fortress.

- Uh.

- [Megatron] Open the door

that you've been guarding

for the Autobots.

- [Demolishor] Huh?

- No, please don't,

don't, Demolishor.

- So what's the matter?

Forget whose side you're on?

- Oh.

- No, Demolishor,

don't listen to him.

(grunting)

Huh?

(thrilling music)

(both yell)

- Oh, I wish he'd stay still!

- [Kicker] On your

right, Optimus!

(Optimus grunts)

- [Optimus] Huh, he's gone!

- He disappeared!

That thing what was it?

- [Optimus] Not sure,

where's Megatron?

- [Kicker] With Demolishor.

- What?

- You're taking your

time, Demolishor,

and you're really starting

to test my patience.

- No, don't do it.

(groans) Don't do

it, Demolishor.

- (laughs) Aren't you tired

of taking orders

from those Autobots?

- Oh!

- Listen closely, turn

and face me, Demolishor.

Now, raise your

weapons and fire at me.

- Oh.

(tense music)

But I can't, Megatron.

- Do it, I'm your enemy now.

Go ahead and fire

on me, do it now!

- But I can't! (groans)

- Come on, you're an Autobot

now, and I'm the enemy!

- No!

(Ironhide groans)

- Oh, don't be so

pathetic, Demolishor.

It's really quite simple.

Just go ahead and

squeeze the trigger.

Come on, do it!

- No, I can't,

Megatron, I can't do it!

(screams)

- No, he blew it open!

- [Terrocon] Terrorcons, attack!

- There, that wasn't

so bad, was it?

Oh, and just a word

of advice, Demolishor,

if you want to see the future,

remember whose side you're on.

- I am a Decepticon.

- (laughs) All right,

we're going to take

all the Energon they have

and destroy this city.

- [Optimus] Not so fast,

you're not going anywhere.

- (chuckles) You're too late.

- [Kicker] Oh no, now

I know where I belong.

(Terrorcons growl)

- [Inferno] Terrorcons

are inside the fortress.

I can hear them.

Come on, I'm ready for ya!

(expl*si*n booms)

(w*apon fires)

(Cyclonus laugh)

- [Jetfire] Ironhide,

let's Powerlinx.

- [Ironhide] Okay!

- [Kicker] Huh, holy cow!

- [Terrorcon] Hunt the Energon.

Let nothing stand in your way.

- Kicker!

- Huh?

- Catch this!

- [Kicker] Now we're talkin'!

(grunts)

(metal clangs)

(expl*si*n booms)

(weapons fire)

(Terrorcons growl)

(Hot Shot groans)

(Ironhide groans)

- [Ironhide] Hot Shot!

- Looks like you

could use a hand.

(Optimus groans)

- This time my blade won't miss!

(Optimus pants)

- [Kicker] Optimus, here ya go!

(Optimus grunts)

- Huh, that's my sword!

How did you make a copy of it?

- It's just

something our friends

the Omnicons made using Energon,

and it's every bit as

strong as your sword.

And that means our

strength is about equal.

- We'll see about that, Prime!

(both groans)

- Whoa, that's incredible!

- (laughs) You'll never

beat me, Optimus Prime.

- [Cyclonus] Megatron!

- [Megatron] Huh?

- Outta the way, traitor,

or I'll run you through.

(Inferno grunts)

- [Kicker] This time we got

'em right where we want 'em.

- [Cyclonus] Oh no.

- Hmm, I've got one

more trick up my sleeve.

(uneasy music)

- [Optimus] Huh?

- This is specially

treated Energon

I've been saving for a

moment just like this.

(Kicker grunts)

- Don't go with

them, Demolishor.

It doesn't have to be like this.

- [Megatron] I'll

be back, Optimus,

and next time, I'm

taking all your Energon!

- [Kicker] Megatron

got away again!

- [Optimus] He knows

when he's been beat.

But it's too bad Demolishor

decided to go with him.

I thought that we could

show him that there is

a more peaceful way of living

than what Megatron believes.

It's unfortunate, I guess

he just couldn't break free

from all those years

of programming.

Well, maybe that

old saying is true,

once a Decepticon,

always a Decepticon.
