[RUMBLING]



[DEMOLISHER GRUNTING]

Hey. What's going on, Megatron?

Why won't you answer me?

[GROANING]

Sir? Megatron?

MEGATRON [THINKING]:

These comets that I

am creating from Unicron

are the answer

to finally destroying Earth

and those annoying Autobots.

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTING CONTINUES]

[THINKING]

I should be in charge

of this mission.

Your strategy was unusual,

Scorponok,

but it seemed to work

in our favor this time.

So you say

you weren't aiming at me,

you were only trying

to make the mobile fortress

fall on our enemies, hmm?

Clever.

TIDAL WAVE: Scorponok.



Huh?

We must push these comets

towards Earth.

Megatron

commands it.

Yes, right.

ALPHA Q :

Ew. I don't believe it.

They mean to drop those

on the Earth.

ALPHA Q :

The planet will be

annihilated for sure.

ALPHA Q :

It could work to our advantage.

ALPHA Q :

We can take our time

collecting the energon.

ALPHA Q :

We'll let the Decepticons

do the work for us.

[ALL LAUGHING]



ALPHA Q : Ew, it's perfect!

[ALARM BEEPING]

Great. First time they leave

me alone in the control room,

and everything goes haywire.

Huh? No way.

Uh-oh, I don't like

the look of that.

SCORPONOK:

Tidal Wave, why don't we use

the warp gate?

The Autobots

are sure to see us.

Megatron believes

this attack

will strike fear

into Optimus Prime.

We will have

the advantage.

Collecting energon

will be much easier.

This had better work.

[ALARM BLARING]

OPTIMUS [OVER RADIO]:

Carlos, did you say

artificial comets?

CARLOS [OVER RADIO]:

Yeah. By my calculations, they

should reach Earth in six hours.

It's gotta be

the Decepticons.

They must want to knock out

the energon grid

before we can get it

online.

Yes, you're probably right.

But don't worry.

We'll just have to work

a little faster

to get the grid

up and running.

All right, Optimus.

If anyone can do it,

I know you guys can.

The energon grid

will form a barrier

that completely covers

the Earth,

and it's going to take more

than a few comets

to break through

its defenses.

I'll stake my reputation

on that.

[LAUGHING]

Don't quit your day job

yet, doctor.

Let's just get it

working first.

INFERNO:

Lunar City is online.

Let's get to Ocean City

on the double.

We don't have any time to waste.

MISHA:

Well, so far, so good.

We're still on schedule.

Yeah,

I hope you guys are ready

to watch the best fireworks

show of your lives today.

Did you say

"fireworks"?

So, what are

fireworks, anyway?

Something big

and flashy.

JONES:

That means there's just

Desert City left now.

Energon level

is at percent.

That's strange?



What's wrong?

The output won't rise.

Inferno, bring up the data

for Desert City's tower.

[THINKING]

Hmm,

everything appears normal.

There must be something

we missed inside the tower.

[MEGATRON LAUGHS]

Once we've destroyed

the Earth,

collect the energon

and bring me

all of the humans' sparks

as well.

I think I'm going to use them

to create a new batch

of soldiers for my army.

But sir, you can't

do that.

Why not?

Well,

the human spark is fragile.

What? Impossible.

Their spark's

not eternal?

One life.

That's all they've got.

[GROWLS]

Bah. Then they really are

poorly designed.

Aw, man, I'm bored.

How long are they gonna

make us wait?

Yeah, where's

the fireworks?

It is taking

a long time.

I'll go see

what I can find out.

Have you figured it out,

Dr. Jones?

There doesn't seem

to be any problem

with the power output.

That means the problem must be

somewhere in the tower,

and it's not showing up

on my screen.

[PANTING]

What's going on?

There's a malfunction somewhere

at the Desert City Tower.

We need all four of the towers

to reach full power

in order for the Energon grid

to work properly, got it? Huh?

KICKER:

How do you expect to figure it

out by standing around?

Hey Optimus,

let me go.

Misha, you ready?

[EXHALES]

You bet.

Kicker.

Don't forget about me--

Whoa!

Stay in radio contact,

Kicker.

I'll be standing by

with a team in outer space

in case there are

any problems, doctor.

Good idea, Optimus.

[♪♪♪]

KICKER:

Jetfire,

can you give us a lift?

JETFIRE:

To Desert City? No problem.

And away we go.

Hey! You might need this.

JETFIRE:

Thanks, Strongarm.

Good luck.

Hey, Strongarm.

Can you help me

out too?

Sure, Ironhide.

[GRUNTS]

Transform.

OMNICON:

Come on, move it.

Found anything?

o, nothing yet.

I'm going to take a look

inside, Kicker.

Okay.

[GASPS]

Sense something?

Maybe, take me to the highest

part of the tower right away.

You got it. Hop on.

Hey, wait for me.

Transform.

Ironhide.

[GASPING, YELPING]

IRONHIDE:

Thanks for the lift,

Jetfire.

How much time do

we have left, Jetfire?

Not much. In approximately

five hours,

the artificial comets

will reach the Earth.

Okay, say we're late,

and the energon grid

isn't complete.

Then what will happen?

Then the planet

will be destroyed.

[GASPS]

[MEGATRON LAUGHING]

Hey,

what's so funny?

[CONTINUES LAUGHING]

The Autobots

are starting to panic.

I can sense their fear

and confusion. Ha-ha-ha!

He's become blinded by

his own power.

Ha-ha-ha-- Huh?

What's that?

Uh, nothing.

Are you sure?

You know, if I want to,

Demolisher,

I can read your mind.

Uh, yes, well, I was thinking

about something, sir.

It will be good

to destroy Optimus Prime.

I'm so looking forward to it.

[LAUGHING]

Jetfire,

how's Kicker doing down there?

Kicker and Ironhide

are examining the interior

of the Desert City tower

right now.

Where's Inferno?

He's on his way

to the moon.

If the energon grid

doesn't work,

we'll have to use Lunar City

as our front line.

Gotcha, Optimus.

If the grid can't stop

those artificial comets,

we'll have to defend the Earth

ourselves.

Do you understand?



Yes, sir.

Hey, Jetfire, think you can

handle the pressure?

Hey, I know I can.

You just worry

about yourself.

Hey, take it easy.

We're on

the same side.

ALPHA Q :

Do you think they can

protect the planet?

ALPHA Q :

Impossible. No, no,

not possible.

ALPHA Q :

There is a chance.

ALPHA Q :

Either way...

[ALPHA Q , , & GASP]

...the energon is ours.

[♪♪♪]

IRONHIDE:

Okay, hang on, Kicker.

I'm gonna lower you down now.

[MACHINERY WHIRRING]

[GASPS]

Hey, hold that light steady!

IRONHIDE:

Whoa! Sorry.

[KICKER GRUNTS]



Hey, Kicker?

Yeah?

If we don't fix this,

then that's it.

That's what?

It's all over for us.

Well, we all gotta go

sometime, Ironhide.

IRONHIDE:

How can you humans live

knowing you have only

a limited lifespan?

I mean, why do you bother

fighting so hard to survive?

It just doesn't make

any sense to me.

It's called being alive,

and believe me, it's worth it.

Huh?

KICKER:

There's no point

in just giving up.

Every human spirit is kind

of like a spark of light

that you want to see burn

as long as it possibly can.

IRONHIDE:

Uh, I don't get it.

KICKER:

I know it's much

for your mainframe to handle.

Not funny.

Hey!



IRONHIDE: Yeah, yeah, I know,

keep the light steady.

No, shine it

that way again.

Hurry.

Hm?

[GRUNTS]



No!

Ironhide! Hold your fire!



Huh?

Are you trying to put a hole

in the tower or something?

ALPHA Q :

You mustn't sh**t at them,

Blackout.

What?

Huh? But I didn't

say anything, Kicker.

[GASPS]

Alpha Q.

[♪♪♪]

ALPHA Q :

Blackout, I don't

want you to retaliate.

Put your weapons away.

Rest now.

Let me listen to what

the two intruders were saying.

Hey, Kicker, if we don't

fix this, then that's it.

It's all over for us.

How can you humans even live

when you know you only have

a limited lifespan?

It's called being alive,

and believe me, it's worth it.

[GROWLS]

There's no point

in just giving up.

Every human spirit is kind of

like a spark of light

that you want to see burn

as long as it possibly can.

Uh, I don't get it.

KICKER:

I know it's much

for your mainframe to handle.

IRONHIDE:

Not funny.

[♪♪♪]

[WHISPERING]

Misha, I think

we've found the problem.

Two Terrorcons have

infiltrated the tower.

They've att*cked us, but they're

just sitting still now.

They're on the west wall

of the tower,

meters down from the top.

MISHA [OVER RADIO]:

Okay. Skyblast is

gonna go check it out.

Kicker,

take a look down there.

[GASPS]

What happened?

It looks like

there was a battle here.

A battle?

Yeah,

that explains a lot.

So that's the reason

the grid's not working.

We can't get there in time.

You'll have to handle it.

KICKER:

I got it.

Tell Optimus to stand by.

This could be a close one.

Don't worry,

he already knows.

Good luck out there, Kicker.

CARLOS [OVER RADIO]:

The artificial comets

are passing Mars,

and they're starting to

pick up speed.

Oh, this

is just great!

Now what do we do?

Optimus Prime.

Powerlink.

[♪♪♪]

Fire One, combine.

Copter Two, combine.

Digger Three, combine.

Submarine Four.

Optimus Prime

Powerlink complete.

Roll out.

We'll have to put ourselves

between the Earth

and those comets.

You can count on us, sir.

We'll hold them off

until the energon grid

starts working.

I just hope they can get

that thing online real soon.

It's up to Kicker now.

Get ready.

Here they come.

[♪♪♪]

Don't use your w*apon

anymore.

Uh, yeah. Okay.

We don't want

to startle them.

Okay, so, what

are we gonna do?

Get down.

What?

Be quiet and get down.



[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTING]

What are you doing?

This is what they want...

Energon.

You see?

I hope you're right.

Kicker, wait! Stop!

What is it?

Whoa, they can't move.

Maybe

he can't fly anymore.

So what now?

IRONHIDE:

Hey, where are you going?

[GRUNTS]

We've got them

where we want them.

[GROANS]

Ironhide!

[GRUNTING]

I can handle it...

It was nothing,

okay, Kicker?

Just sit tight and stay

out of the line of fire.

[GRUNTING]



Hey!

JONES [OVER RADIO]:

Any news from

the Desert City tower?

Those comets are entering

Earth's atmosphere.

We've got to get the grid

online now.

Please hang on.

Kicker's almost done.

[ALARM BLARING]



He's got to hurry.

We know that!

Ha! Let 'em rip!

[GRUNTS]

[GROWLS]

[♪♪♪]

Incoming!

All a*tillery, open fire!

Blast them with

everything you've got.

Man,

we're barely making a mark.

Don't give up.

We've got to protect

planet Earth.

ALPHA Q :

Soon the Earth

will be destroyed,

and the energon will be ours.

[CHUCKLES]

Well,

here it goes.

Maybe this

will calm them down.

[GRUNTS]

So, what are you trying

to do?

I'm giving them energon.

That's why they came

to the tower.

They're desperate.

Hm?

They're not that different

from you, Ironhide.

They just need a little help.

Hm? This human...

Interesting.

Huh? Optimus?

What's wrong?



Look up there.

[♪♪♪]

It can't be.

Is that Rodimus?

Huh?



What was that?

Megatron, sir, one of

the comets has been destroyed.

It must be the work

of Alpha Q.

Bring the other two in,

and we'll drive them

to the planet's surface.

Let nothing

get in the way.

Move out.

Take cover behind the comets,

then destroy our enemies.

Yes, Megatron.

[♪♪♪]

Whoa!

That's amazing.

It's the power

of energon.

I don't think these two

will bother us anymore.

Misha, we're all set.

[♪♪♪]

Here come the other two.

Where did Rodimus

disappear to?

Hot Shot, would you

keep quiet and keep blasting?

Yeah, all right.

They're moving too fast.

Oh, man,

we'll never stop them.

Oh, yes, we will.

If we use the power of energon,

we can do it.

[YELLS]

Let's go for it.

[BOTH GRUNTING]

Can't quit.

Gotta stop them.

Gotta stop them.

[GRUNTING]

[MEGATRON LAUGHS]

MEGATRON:

Hang on, Optimus,

if you dare...

[LAUGHS]

[GRUNTS]

[OPTIMUS GRUNTS]

JONES [OVER RADIO]:

Optimus,

get away from there now.

Huh?

Hot Shot, Jetfire.

Let's get out of here.

But what about

the Earth?

It'll be destroyed.

No, look! It's the grid!

[♪♪♪]

What is that?

A barrier around

the Earth...

Ha! Very impressive.

[GROANS]

Must retreat.

[SIGHS]

Good work, Kicker.

You did it.

Fireworks!

I told you,

it'd be a great show.

Kicker, it's just like

you said, it's beautiful.

Yeah... Fireworks.

[GASPS]



IRONHIDE: What's wrong, Kicker?

Did one of the Decepticons

break through the grid?

KICKER:

No... It's a ship,

but I don't know

where it's from.

IRONHIDE:

Are you sure

it's not the enemy?

KICKER:

Yeah. Just relax, Ironhide.

I see...

[SCREECHES]



[SCREECHES]

That ship has come

to pick these two up.

[CHUCKLES]

[♪♪♪]

Hey!

That ship's from Cybertron.

You're right.

Shouldn't we find out

who's flying it?

I say,

let them go.

But we don't know

who that is.

No, but I know

it's a friend.

Someone who's been

looking out for us.

But who?

I don't know,

but he's helped before.

Might be Rodimus.

Nah, you're talking

gibberish again.

It can't be Rodimus, no way.

Ah, can it.

Oh, yeah?

Well, I put a homing device on

one of those Terrorcons.

Now we'll be able to track

exactly where

that ship is taking them.

[BEEPING]

Huh?

Huh?

I guess that'll teach you

to tell me

to keep quiet, partner.

Ha! I got you good.

[LAUGHS]

Ow! Cut that out!

[CHUCKLES]

That's his way of saying

good job.

IRONHIDE:

Yeah? Well, he's got a funny way

of giving a compliment.

ALPHA Q :

Why did we help the Autobots?

ALPHA Q :

It's Rodimus. He's responsible.

ALPHA Q :

How did he control

the Terrorcons? Hmm?

ALPHA Q :

We lost an entire squadron

because of his meddling.

ALPHA Q :

First, we want to destroy

the Earth, then we protect it?

ALPHA Q :

Tell us why? Why?

ALPHA Q :

The energon is like a chain

that binds the Autobots

and Decepticons.

All of it will be ours

if we find the weakest link.

And I believe I've found it.
