01x29 - Desperate

[bunniefuu]

ANNOUNCER:

The w*r between the Autobots

and the Decepticons rages on

as they struggle to retrieve

the prized Minicons.

The side who wins

is the side

that collects the most,

and if the Decepticons

prove victorious,

then Megatron and his corrupt

Minicons control the universe.

The Earth's only chance

for a peaceful cosmos

is for Optimus Prime

and the Autobots

to destroy their enemy.

Now get ready

for a new battle...

( laughing arrogantly )

HOT SHOT:

Hurry Optimus!

( Autobots grunting )

ANNOUNCER:

In our last episode,

Sideways covertly delivered

a message to the Autobots

that the three Minicons

that had been detected,

when combined,

formed the Requiem Blaster,

a w*apon so powerful, it could

turn the tide of the w*r.

KIDS: Whoa!

Something's just

not right, guys!

RAD:

He's not responding!

ANNOUNCER: Our heroes

had found the first Minicon,

but would they be able

to collect the other two

before the Decepticons did?

CARLOS:

Oh, man, he's starting

to creep me out, Rad!

Hey, what'd ya think

you're doing?

H-Hey, wait!

Where ya going?

( gasps )

( dramatic theme playing )

( screaming )

Rad, do something...and quick!

Oh...he's scared.

Hang on.

Are you nuts!

Run for it, Rad!

We're real sorry

for scaring you like that.

We didn't mean to.

Are you all right?

We're not your enemy,

we're your friends!

Ahh!

Ahh!

LEADER- ?

( bleeping sounds )

Holy cow!

See?

Hey, he's just

as freaked out as we are!

And scaring us

was his defense mechanism.

( bleeping sounds )

( laughing arrogantly )

Ahh!

Huh?

( grunting )

( growling softly )

( laughing )

We're not fazing him!

Hot Shot, retreat!

Not yet, Optimus.

Smokescreen,

Skyboom Shield!

I'm already on it!

Guys, I could use

a little help here!

Oh, no!

Things are falling

nicely into place.

( chuckling )

Feast your eyes on the final

battle, gentlemen,

and prepare for our

victory celebration.

( angry snarl )

( grunting )

Hot Shot, hang on!

You're mine!

Unbelievable.

Crush them!

Yes, sir!

Don't worry about me,

I'm fine.

We must hold them back, men!

( in unison ):

Yes, sir!

Hurry, men, take cover

and return fire!

I'll try another

aerial attack.

Oh, boy,

here we go again.

( snarling )

No!

( sighing )

I hate watching this.

I feel so helpless.

Our only hope is that we get

to the Requiem Blaster first.

That's if it really

does exist.

CARLOS: Alexis! Over here!



Huh?

Hey, Alexis,

we found one.

You did?

Okay, we've got to send him

to Optimus, pronto!

Why...



And I mean hurry!

They need him to combine

with the other Minicons

to form the Requiem Blaster.

So did they recover

the other two?

Not yet,

but they will.

Right?

( bleeping sounds )

Hey, what's up

with him!?

RAD: Ah...nothing, he's just

a little scared, that's all.

Don't worry,

we'll protect you, Alexis.

I don't have time for your jokes

Carlos, understand?

Don't you guys realize

the Autobots

are in big trouble?

Must.. keep...focus...

on...attack.

( Cyclonus laughing

maniacally )

The tide has turned

in your favor Megatron.

THRUST: And soon

you shall rule the universe!

Ah!

At long last.

THRUST:

By the way, we've reserved

the final blow for you, sir.

Hmm.

THRUST: Tidal Wave,

begin the final phase!

Transform!

SCAVENGER:

Are you crazy, Hot Shot!

Get down!



But something's going on.

What do you think

they're up to?

Now what's he doing?

( chuckles ):

The power is mine.

The time has come Optimus

to end this game!

Check out Megatron!

Oh, no!

Look, he's going after

Optimus.

DEMOLISHER:

They're behind us.

( laughing triumphantly )

They're everywhere.

Megatron!

Ha!

Adios, my friend.

Not so fast.

No! It looks like

Optimus is hurt!

That's it!

I've got to go help him!

ALEXIS: Red Alert, no, wait!



Huh?

The only way to help

Optimus and the others

is with the Requiem Blaster.

You've just got

to help us

or otherwise Megatron

is going to win.

Oh, please?

Oh, no.

I think he's

afraid to go.

But he's our

last chance, Rad.

Without his help,

this Earth is doomed.

Okay, will you go out there

if I promise to go with you?

And don't worry because

Red Alert will protect us.

You sure?

ALEXIS: Come on!

Let's go!

Quick! We don't have

anytime to waste!

Don't leave me my side

and you'll be safe.

Hey...don't worry...

these guys are real

professionals.

( bleeping sounds )

Launch!

Hey, it's okay.

Yeah, nothing

to worry about...

Ahh!



( exploding sounds nearby )

Carlos!

( Carlos cringing in fear )

Mmp!

RED ALERT:

Okay, check the monitor

and find out where the signals

are coming from.

Right, I'll check it out!

( bleeping sounds )

Oh...oh!

ALEXIS ( over radio ):

Attention all Autobots!

Attention!

Find Red Alert!

He should be there by now

with the Minicon you need!

Oh, good timing,

Red Alert.

I shoulda have

stayed in bed.

Oh, and Rad and Carlos

are with him.

Why in the world did he

bring those two along?

Oh...

I'll look after things out here.



Scavenger!

You go find Red Alert

and make sure

the kids are safe.

I don't get it.

Don't worry about it.

Just go.

Man, it'd sure be nice

to know what the plan is.

Fe-fi-fo-fum!

I smell wimpy Autobot scum.

I get the distinct

feeling

they're trying to create

some kind of diversion.

Hmm...but what precisely

is their little plan?

Ah!

There it is.

THRUST:

How clever.

Oh, no, you don't!

Hmm!

Ready anytime

you are, Thrust.

Ha! How brave.

But I must warn you,

even on a good day,

you're no match for me.

Besides, what are you trying

to protect that's so precious?

Could it be the w*apon

Sideways was talking about?

Why you!

See?

I told you there was

nothing to worry about.

Optimus Prime,

the time has finally arrived

for you to perish and to end

this petty skirmish.

( Megatron laughing )

ALEXIS: Smokescreen, give

the Skyboom Shield to Optimus!

SMOKESCREEN:

Good thinking, Alexis.

We're ready to launch!

Huh?

( Tidal Wave laughing )

What's the matter, Prime?

Forget to put batteries

in your Skyboom Shield?

Oh, and before I forget,

hand over that Minicon.

( grunting )

No... Optimus...

Hurry Rad, you've got

to find those Minicons.

And quick!

What...are we waiting for?

Come on, Rad!

We're just wastin' time standing

around here doing nothing.

If we don't get

our butts in gear soon,

there won't be any Autobots

left to save!

( expl*si*n nearby )



Huh!

That's it!

Carlos...

The Minicons

just don't like to fight!

What a load

of trash, Rad.

( bleeping sounds )

RAD: Don't you remember?

The Minicons were designed as

laborers to work on Cybertron.

It was only the Decepticons

who wanted them to fight.

That's why the Autobots

loaded them on a ship

and sent them off

into space

To keep them out

of the hands of Megatron.

But now, it seems

the only way we can win

is with the help

of the Minicons.

That's exactly my point!

Sorry, but you can't rush

into this, Carlos.

You can't force them

into battle.

You have to wait until

they are ready to fight

and that's exactly

what we're going to do.

Huh?

RED ALERT: Take cover!

We're under attack!

Hah!

( grunting )

Red Alert's been hit.

( crashing )

Red Alert!

RED ALERT:

S-Stay back!

Please...

Uh!

Huh!

Huh!

( thumping sounds )

Ahh!

Ahh!

Huh!

Huh!

HOT SHOT:

You guys, all right?

RAD: Hot Shot!

Sorry for taking so long,

but I ran into a little trouble

with Cyclonus back there.

Boy, that is one

disturbed Decepticon.

Oh good,

there's the Minicon.

But he's not ready

to fight yet.

I don't know how

to break this to you, Rad,

but we don't have time right now

to convince him to help us.

HOT SHOT:

I don't know how much more

of a pounding Optimus can take.

( Optimus grunting )

HOT SHOT:

What we need now is to find

those two Minicons...and quick!

And then what,

Hot Shot?

What if the other two

don't want to fight either?

( bleeping sounds )



Huh?

Huh?

( weird harmonic

robotic sounds )

( gasping in awe )

What's...that?



( weird sound continues )

That's so bizarre.

He's calling

the other Minicons.

( weird sound continues )

Huh?

( weird sound continues )

Huh?

What the...

( weird sound continues )

What's going on?

( weird sound continues )

Huh?

It...can't be.

Something's happening

to my Star Saber.

The Skyboom Shield is being

drawn towards the Star Saber.

( grunting )

Incredible!

( grunting )

What's going on

out there?

No clue.

The Minicons are alive!

Aww, dude, this is

totally awesome!

Yeah.

( Megatron laughing )

So the Minicons

can communicate.

Then maybe they can tell each

other that Optimus is no more.

( Megatron laughing )

( gasps ):

Another Minicon!

Get off me!

You're not going

anywhere!

You're beginning

to annoy me,

so I'll let you play

by yourself!

Huh?

You're finished

Optimus Prime!

Ahh!

( Optimus screaming )



JETFIRE: Optimus!

Optimus!

( gasping )

I give you credit for

sacrificing yourself,

but the bottom line is,

you're still the sacrifice.

( Jetfire grunting )

Now you must pay

for your choice.

And unfortunately for you,

there is no escape from

the obvious outcome my friend!

( Megatron laughing )

ALEXIS: Oh, no!

Optimus's been hit!

Huh?

CARLOS: Look, Rad!

There he is!

Hey, where ya going?

( weird harmonic

robotic sounds )

( dramatic theme playing )

The Minicons!



They're alive!

Optimus!

( dramatic theme playing )

Where did they come from?

I won't let this happen!

( grunting )

Megatron!

( Autobots gasping in awe )

( dramatic theme playing )

( kids gasping in awe )

( gasping in awe )

RAD:

All this time I thought

that those Minicons

were afraid of fighting.

But I guess I was wrong.

What they were most afraid of

was the power they possessed,

and not using it for anything

but fighting off evil.

Boy...I gotta tell ya,

I sure was glad

to be wrong.
