RAD:
From out of nowhere,
two giant mechanical beings
appeared in the desert.
Bitter enemies
from an ancient time.
Now their feud has begun again.
Earth is the new battleground.
How do I know all this?
I was there.
My name's Rad.
And little did I,
or my two friends,
Carlos and Alexis, know,
but we were about
to play a major role
in this battle's outcome.

( rumbling )
Well, I guess
we're trapped in here.
It looks like
the exit's sealed.
( whimpers ):
Mommy!
BILLY:
Hey, take it easy.
We'll find a way out.
Come on. Pull yourself together.
( suspenseful theme playing )
( grunting )
I want the Mini-Cons.
Mini-Cons?
Huh?
( beeping )
Come on, Alexis.
We've gotta get out of here.
( both gasp )
( dramatic theme playing )
What? What is that?
( gasps then screams )
( grunting )
( gasps )
( grunts )
Carlos!
( screaming )
Huh?
Huh?
( suspenseful theme playing )
( all grunt )
It's a showdown.
Come on. Follow me.
( beeps )
( gasps )
( dramatic theme playing )

RAD: Run for it, Alexis!
Come on,
let's head for the cave.
( all panting )
( grunting )
( Demolisher grunting )
( Demolisher groaning )
Hmph. What a weakling.
Huh?
( Megatron grunting )
Give it up, Megatron!
I'll be back.
Huh?
Hey, where'd they go?
OPTIMUS:
Autobots! Front and center.
Yes, sir.
Are you all right, sir?
Yes, but we're all
in great danger.
We can't let Megatron
get hold of the Mini-Cons.
I know. They're using
Short Warp equipment.
So they must have a base
set up somewhere near here.
( dramatic theme playing )
They're up there.
Hmm.
( snoring )
( gasps )
CYCLONUS:
Welcome back, Megatron.
I trust your mission
was a success.
Uh-- Huh?
Sir, were you able
to get the Mini-Cons?
Uh...
Mm...
Oh.
MEGATRON:
Quiet, you incompetent fool!
Starscream,
you scanned the planet.
Did you detect
the Mini-Con ship anywhere?
Well, perhaps it was destroyed.
Maybe Cyclonus would have
better luck finding it.
Sir, allow me.
I just know
I'll be able to pinpoint
the Mini-Con's
exact location.
I would be greatly honored
if you'd let me.
Very well. Go ahead then.
Oh, thank you.
I won't let you down, Megatron.
You had better not.
If you do, I'll have you
dismantled for scrap.
Then I'll launch what's left
of you straight into the sun.
Understand?
Uh-huh.
You had better get to work.
Oh.
I think we'll be safe
down in here.
Don't count on it.
Hey, what do you mean?
Alexis?
Rad, it's so obvious.
Those robots are definitely
gonna come looking for us.
They will? But what do
they want with us anyway?
It's him they're after.
Aw, come on, dude.
They don't want me.
( gasps )
( beeping )
Not you.
Huh?
It's that little robot
there.
That's what they want.
You really think so?
I'm pretty sure of it.
Are those other robots
after you?
( beeping )
Hmm.
RAD:
I think he likes you, Alexis.
So do you understand
what he's saying?
I haven't got a clue.
( Mini-Con beeping )
Hey, now where's he going?
Hey! Come back!
Huh? What kind of cave
is this?
( door whirring )
Ah! We'll be trapped
in here.
( beeping )
If we can't get out of here,
then they can't get in.
What? Well, it's true,
isn't it, Alexis?
Sure,
but we're still trapped.
Our mechanical amigo
wouldn't lead us into danger.
He's on our side,
remember?
( beeping )
I hope you're right.
( dramatic theme playing )
( gasps )
Aw! A spaceship!
ALEXIS:
Hey, Carlos! Wait for us!
RAD:
This is what he's been trying
to tell us all along.
So he really is
from outer space.
I bet he came
from some distant galaxy
a long time ago
to escape those big robots.
Maybe they used
small robots like him
to increase their power
or something.
His ship must have
crash-landed on Earth,
and now
they've tracked him down.
Wow. You think so?
That's the only reason
I can think of
why those big robots
would come after him.
Let's see if I can get
some more info
from this ship's computer.
( beeps )
Rad, What is that?
RAD:
It's, uh, Megatron.
It says here he's leader
of the Decepticons.
He's the one we saw
fighting in the desert today.
( Mini-Con beeping )
RAD:
That's Optimus Prime,
leader of the Autobots.
ALEXIS:
Yeah, I remember him.
He tried to help us.
( Mini-Con beeping )
Autobots.
Huh?
Their goal is peace
in the universe for everyone.
Autobots?
Mini-Cons.
You are hiding from me.
But I will find you.
Hmm?
( beeping )
CARLOS:
What's gotten into him?
( Mini-Con beeping )
Something's wrong.
He's going haywire. Look.
( whirring )
Huh?
What is it?
( dramatic theme playing )
( beeping )
Huh?
Hmm?
Of course.
( gasps )
Are there more of them
out there?
Ah!
Hi, little fella.
( buzzing )
Hey, guess what.
He understands me.
He does. He really does.
Are you sure? This one's
not reacting to anything I say.
Aw, his batteries must be low.
Maybe he needs to be recharged
or something.
What's this?
( chuckles )
I've found one.
A Mini-Con was right
under my nose the whole time.
( grunting )
Oh, it's perfect.
And it's my old Mini-Con.
Leader One.
( Megatron laughs )
It's so good
to see you again.
Oh, the things
I have in store for you.

Fred. We made it.
We got out
of the rotten cave.
( sighs )
Um, Billy?
Hmm?
Look. What's that?
Aah!
BILLY:
Oh, it's nothing.
Just a giant footprint!
( both scream )
( soft dramatic theme playing )
Huh? What's up?
Hey, looks like the juice
is back on.

Check this out.

( beeping )
Oh!
ALEXIS:
These little robots
totally rock.
CARLOS:
Yeah, I get the feeling
they're going to come in handy.
RAD:
Hey, let's take them
for a test drive.
MEGATRON:
How do you explain this?
CYCLONUS:
I can't, sir.
You were unable
to locate this Mini-Con
when it was right here
all along,
and you don't even have
an excuse?
( whimpering )
Sir, it's my circuits.
They've been overloaded
lately.
Shut your mouth,
you worthless piece of junk!
You're so lucky.
I should melt you down.
Oh, I'm so tempted.
But I need you right now.
And do you know why?
The Mini-Cons!
Uh...
I promise
I won't fail you again, sir.
No, you won't.
( snickering )
MEGATRON:
What's so funny, Starscream?
Um, I'm sorry, sir.
Observe the power
of this Mini-Con.
This should inspire you
to work harder.
Go ahead.
( whirring )
( gasps, screams )
( grunts )
( Megatron laughs )
MEGATRON:
Now do you understand?
( Megatron continues
laughing )
DEMOLISHER:
Megatron!
Huh?
DEMOLISHER:
Uh, sir, uh,
what happened in here?
MEGATRON:
Demolisher! What do you
have to report?
DEMOLISHER:
Uh, yes, sir.
It appears two more Mini-Cons
have awoken down on Earth.
I have pinpointed
their location.
Hmm. Two more.
Cyclonus, you will lead
our recovery team.
Uh-- Sir!
What?
What is that?
Sir,
what have you done here?
MEGATRON:
I've modified your designs
when you switch to vehicle mode.
And once we have
the other Mini-Cons,
you'll be even more powerful.
Hmm.
OPTIMUS:
No sign of the Decepticons yet,
but I'd better run
a thorough scan just in case.

RAD:

Hey, guys!
Aren't these Mini-Cons

Hey! Check that out!
I never knew Alexis
was such a speed demon.
Oh, yeah? Well, you want
to see her eat my dust?
Go for it!

Wow! The Autobots
saved our lives.
Hey, they might need my help
while they're here on Earth.
If they do,
I'm ready to return the favor.
You were looked
a little rusty, Hot Shot.
Would you give me a break?
I'm still getting warmed up.
