Quoth the Raven
By Festus3 festus3@netins.net
Scene opens on top of a mountain at night, there is green, red and blue lightning streaking the sky, rain is pouring down, the three Titans are standing on top of the ragged cliff in robot mode, next to a huge mess of machinery.
QUAKE: You're sure the Maximal won't be able to regain control?
DARKRAZOR: Yes, I have modified the dull spark to live off of the host spark. (Brutallion signals for Darkrazor and Quake to get into two separate, very large compartments, he is holding one of the drones from the cave they live in, it squirms and writhes and tries to bite his hand, he stuffs it into a smaller center compartment.)
BRUTALLION: The computer will take proper traits and abilities from you two, fuse them into the drone, and also modify the drone into a kind of, uh, technorganic body. (He works on his computer.) I will set up our little friend with the best weapons. You're sure it will be loyal to us? This dull spark is very, very powerful, I don't know why Starscreem had the orb make it so powerful.
DARKRAZOR: I am a queen, it is my drone, hopefully we can duplicate this process afterwards.
BRUTALLION: I chose a drone that had human DNA traits.
DARKRAZOR: Oh, I also thought of a name for our resident species, I believe Xenomorph fits them very well.(She gets into her compartment and closes the door, Quake steps into his, having the bend over, as soon as all of the doors are closed Brutallion brings up two computer chips, he plugs the first one into the computer, Rattrap's face appears on the computer screen.)
RATTRAP: Ah! Where am I!? (Brutallion ignores him and plugs in the second chip, his huge fingers barely able to hold it.) What are you doing!? Ahhh! Ahhhhhhh! (His face fades from the screen and Brutallion gives a chuckle.)
BRUTALLION: Remote computer, activate power siphon. (A long metal bar, tipped with a glowing ball, slides out of the top of the machinery, Brutallion looks at the pile of machinery stacked around the three compartments, he takes an object out of a compartment in his left shoulder, it has an eerie red/black glow.) And last but not least, the dark matter for that extra zing. (He plugs into into the computer as well and hits a large red button in the center, he steps back and waits for a second, the drone is going psycho in it's compartment, ramming itself against the walls, then the lightning strikes, the bright green bolt laces through the sky and connects with the siphon, it twists and weaves in the air, then a blue one connects, then red, the three bolts are twisted together in the night sky, the thick bolt of energy weaves and twists, the drone looks up with its eyeless stare, sensing the raw power.) Incredible! (Darkrazor and Quake are jolted with the energy, then a ball in the top of the drone's compartment begins to glow, the camera goes to a view far above the mountain, a shockwave shoots out across the sky, sweeping over the other mountains, Brutallion is knocked back and almost slides off of the cliff, in front of him brilliant beams of light are shooting out of the machinery, Darkrazor kicks her compartment open and sprints away.)
DARKRAZOR: Slag! This is going to be bad! (She transforms into beast mode and runs and jumps off of the cliff, traveling over a sixty foot rift, she lands on the other side and runs behind a rock.)
BRUTALLION: I can't do that! (Quake beats the door off the front of his compartment and begins running toward Brutallion, all of the machinery is now glowing, white-hot, time seems to freeze, Quake is almost to Brutallion when the machinery blows, the shock from the massive blast sends Brutallion and Quake flying over Darkrazor, as the thirty and twenty-five foot robots travel over her she grabs onto the rock in front of her with all six of her arms, the other two tumble through the sky past the mountain range and crash to the desert below it, Darkrazor looks over the edge of her rock, the second shockwave rips her from her perch, the camera goes to a view high above as the mountains are virtually ripped out of the ground, Quake looks up and sees the mountains shattering, then the sand at the base of the mountains, about three hundred yards in front of them, begins to fly up into the air.)
QUAKE: It's rooting up the entire desert! We're going to get blown further out! (He converts to his beast mode, his giant beaked worm body goes under the sand, Brutallion stands up and looks into the on-coming wall of debris and fire, the ground is ripped out from under him and he flies through the air, Darkrazor is toppling through the air several hundred feet above him and Quake has been ripped out from under the ground, a third shockwave, even bigger than the first two, rips through the sky, eliminating anything left of the mountains, it travels strait up though, not rooting up anymore sand but splitting the monsoon clouds and penetrating the atmosphere, the camera goes back to the Titans, still hurdling through the air along with debris, they finally land, many miles away from the site of their experiment, in a much lighter, white sand, Quake's body has gashes ripped out of it and his beak is split, Darkrazor is missing one of her largest pare of arms and another from her second largest pair of arms, her two smallest arms are completely gone, a large chunk of her head crest is gone and the last three feet of her tail as well, she struggles to lift her head off of the ground as acid mech fluid pours from her wounds.)
DARKRAZOR: We're, we're miles upon miles into the desert, it'll take forever to get back.
QUAKE: We were already about one hundred miles in, how many more have we been thrown? (He can barely move his beak off of the ground.)
DARKRAZOR: If my calculations are correct, we're about six hundred miles from the edge of the desert. (Brutallion struggles to a sitting position and converts to beast mode, his large body falls to the side.)
BRUTALLION: We'd better let internal repairs work for a while. (The others go out cold, all in stasis lock.)
Scene goes to inside the Maximal base, Whiplash and Dinobot are in robot mode looking over some computer results.
WHIPLASH: This proves it, Pestalance is a clone, the carbonic testing is one-hundred percent.
DINOBOT: But why? Why make someone that looks and acts like Rattrap?
WHIPLASH: He only acts like Rattrap because I used him to activate Pestalance's pod. He has proven himself not to be a Predacon spy, there's just not enough information. (A red light comes down out of the ceiling and Bambard's voice comes in over the intercom.)
BAMBARD: Bambard to any Maximal concerned! I just got a reading on a huge explosion in the desert! (Inside the com room all of the Maximals are in robot mode around the computer.)
DINOBOT: How could we get a reading on something in the desert? It's dozens of miles away. (Whiplash brings up a grid of the mountain range, then an image of the three shockwaves.)
WHIPLASH: Holy slag!
PARRATOR: That's stinkin' huge!
DINOBOT: What could have caused an explosion of that magnitude!? (Whiplash begins scanning trace sediments.)
WHIPLASH: Wow, we got all sorts of unnatural power here, including dark matter. And, (He looks over it again.) oh no, there's evidence of Rattrap's spark. (No one wants to believe it.)
PANTHOR: What sick thing have they done to him? (Dinobot has turned away, his eyes are closed in rage, fists clenched, he whispers to himself.)
DINOBOT: Mark my words, Titans, I will destroy you for this.
Scene goes back to where the mountains used to be, the camera goes among the singed and still white-hot rock, the sky is now cleared of all clouds, then the camera comes up to a glowing orb of light, hanging in the center is a dark form, huddled into a fetal position, the form stirs a bit, the light surrounding it is so blinding you can only make out a silhouette, two large, leathery, dragon-like wings curl from around it, the wings tense and it shoots through the air, the orb of light around it shattering. It travels low over the ground, barely discernible from the shadows, its appearance still a mystery, its speed is incredible, it has already reached the edge of the desert and is traveling through the trees effortlessly, it veers to the right and is lost in the shadows.
Inside the Predacon base, in the bridge of the Phantom, Tarantulus is sitting back in the captain's chair asleep, the camera goes past that room to another where the rest of the Predacons are sitting at a table playing cards, all in robot mode.
TERADUCTILE: Man this is boring. (He leans back in his chair.)
ANACRONDA: Stop whining pansie. (Teraductile leans over the table and begins charging his electric fists.)
TERADUCTILE: What are you gonna do about it legless? (Anacronda brings up his laser rifle and takes aim, everyone around the table begins fighting except for Drone, he has set down his cards and is peering around the cave, he gets up and pulls out his turbine gun, he starts walking away, the others at the table stop and stare at him.)
BOMBSHELL: What's got your antennae in a twist? (Drone holds up his left hand, signaling to be quiet.)
DRONE: We're not alone. (he walks slowly out of the cave and onto the beach, the multiple moons are covered by dark clouds in the night sky.) I can feel something, something dark I remember this. (he closes his eyes and remembers the time when he was in the Maximal base, he was accessing the computers and the lights went off, a face came out of the computer and came at him, back on the beach he is looking around.) You have a body now? (Suddenly there is a scream from somewhere in the sky, it is a horrible screeching noise, Drone looks up, the other Predacons, gathered around the cave exit watch him, he aims his gun up but it is too late, a horrible winged creature, barely visible in the shadows, dives down, Drone lets out a terrifying scream, the monster slams into him and levels out over the sand, traveling straight at the Predacons, they dive to the ground and the dark mass travels over them and into the cave, Drone screams once more and is then silenced somewhere deep down a tunnel, the Predacons get up and run back through the cave to the opening of the dark passage.)
TRANSQUITO: Wha-what just, happened? (Anacronda and Teraductile step in front and begin walking down the dark tunnel, Teraductile hits his fists together, they spark and give off an electric light that reveals the path in front of them.)
ANACRONDA: Drone? You okay? (He and Teraductile are followed by the others into the the tunnel, the roof is only a few feet above their heads, they arrive at a place where the path splits in eight ways, making a circle of tunnels in the center, Batteram sets one of his guns down pointing at the tunnel they came out of.)
BOMBSHELL: What now? (Teraductile raises a finger to silence him, Anacronda points down a tunnel, a few yards in lies Drone's turbine gun.)
TRANSQUITO: I don't like this. (They start to walk, Anacronda stops Bombshell.)
ANACRONDA: You stay behind, if you hear anything get out as fast as you can and get Tarantulus. (He stands in the center of the cross-roads as the others go down the tunnel, Teraductile comes around a corner and sees a crumpled heap on the ground, Anacronda aims his gun, he walks up and carefully rolls it over.) Ahh! (It is Drone, there is a hole in his forehead, his chest has been brutally ripped open, the rest of his body has been slashed repeatedly.)
TRANSQUITO: What would do this!?
TERADUCTILE: I don't know, start dragging him back to the CR pod, we'll go back in. (Back at the eight-way intersection Bombshell is nervously pointing his wrist gun around, there is a sound from one of the tunnels, he whirls and looks down it, the camera is facing him, behind him you see a shadow move on the ceiling, he freezes, then looks up, there is the crack sound of a whip and all goes black, then two metallic thuds. Transquite is dragging Drone's mangled body through the tunnel, he gets to the intersection and trips over something.)
TRANSQUITO: What the- (He picks up a round object.) Ahhhhhhh! (It is Bombshell's head, laying next to him on the ground is the body, Transquito scrambles to his feet and looks for the gun, it's gone, he hears the noise of a gun charging and turns around, a shot travels through the air and through his chest plate, in the tunnel the remaining four are walking cautiously when they hear the laser fire.)
ANACRONDA: What was that!? (They turn around a transmetal form comes moving down the tunnel at them very fast, when it reaches them the dark creature lets the body go and glides over them into the darkness, Transquitoe's body knocks them over.)
CHAMELEOTRON: Let's get out of here! (Teraductile stands up and faces them, his back in the direction of the tunnel the creature went down.)
TERADUCTILE: You aren't running away! We're going to stay and fight this thing! (suddenly two black hands come down on his shoulders and two more around his waist, a bony, chain-like tail, resembling the Xenomorph's except it is double razored, explodes from his chest, the other three back up slowly in horror, then run in panic. Teraductile's limp body falls to the ground, the light from his hands disappearing, leaving the creature a dark shadow as it hangs in the air, its wings flapping silently. At the intersection Anacronda leaps over the bodies into one tunnel, Chameleotron runs into another, Batteram stops, transforms to beast mode and begins using his echo-location, he heads down one tunnel.)
BATTERAM: I better be right! (The camera shows Anacronda's eyes as he runs down a pitch black tunnel, he hears wings flapping and whips around, he starts firing his rifle like crazy, his gun overheats, he drops it to the ground, in the dim light from the super-heated metal he sees a dark spidery form with leathery wings move through the air and take him backwards, he screams and looks up, he can feel the weight of the creature on top of him, he opens his eyes and sees a mouth much like the Xenomorph drones, it opens revealing the second mouth inside, his scream echoes down the tunnel, Chameleotron hears it and freezes.)
CHAMELEOTRON: You're not getting me! Beast mode! (He goes to beast mode,) Quake! (His chameleon body stretches and blobs out, taking the shape of Quake's huge, beaked worm beast mode, his body barely fits in the tunnel, the sides press in against him.) Try me now! (He starts pushing himself through the tunnel, since he is blind he can only hear an almost silent beating of wings, the creature shoots through the darkness, Chameleotron opens his beak and extends the three tongue/mouths from his mouth, the creature rams headlong into his mouth and down his throat, shredding his insides, it explodes out of the back and Chameleotron goes out cold. Batteram is going through tunnel after tunnel when he finally finds the one that goes back into the cave, he transforms at the hallway that leads into the head of the Phantom, he sprints down it.)
BATTERAM: Tarantulus! There's something in the caves! (He punches a red button and an alarm sounds, he begins sprinting down the hallway, red light flashing over the white, a door opens at the end Tarantulus steps out of the bridge, rubbing his eyes.)
TARANTULUS: What sick joke are you guys pulling? (He sees Batteram running at him, but what really catches his attention is the thing speeding through the hall behind Batteram, Tarantulus turns and goes back into the bridge, the camera goes to a view of the side of the door inside the bridge Tarantulus's back is pressed against the wall, he hears Batteram running, Batteram is in mid-run, half-way through the door, when he is roughly jerked back, his arms and legs flailing in front him as the creature rips him backwards. Tarantulus tenses up even more and listens, silence, he whirls and aims his gun down the hallway, nothing, he backs up into the center of the bridge, he turns and looks out into the dark night sky, it is pitch black, he walks up to the view port, lightning strikes outside, silhouetting a terrible form, wings outstretched, it leaps off, circles the sky and heads full speed for the transperisteel.) Ahhhh! (He starts firing at the transperisteel, the shots travel through, the creature dodges them easily, wraps its wings around itself and rams through the glass, Tarantulus backs against the wall, the creature, wings still drawn around itself, jumps up onto the table, it unfurls its wings revealing itself in full glory.) Aaaaaaahh!
(It has arms that resemble the Xenomorphs, except thinner and sleeker, where it's legs should be it also has arms, this set of arms is longer and thicker, its torso also resembles the Xenomorph drone except for some extra details, it is slightly shorter but the outstanding detail is the gaping mouth in its chest, ridged with teeth, inside it are three long tongue/mouths, resembling the ones Quake has except smaller, it has a roughly fifteen foot wingspan although its body is only five feet from head to toe, its head also resembles a streamlined version of the Xenomorph, starting out rounded and ending in an almost shark-fin shape, the second mouth, inside its first mouth, sits waiting behind the first set of razor-shark teeth, a four foot, bony tail, tipped with double razors, is flailing behind it. Tarantulus takes in the horrific site and presses further against the wall, the creature raises its head and lets out a screech that could shatter glass, lighting strikes behind it, the creature pumps its wings once and then tucks them in, heading straight for Tarantulus like a torpedo.) Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Scene goes into the Maximal base a little later, Dinobot comes into the room where the rest of the Maximals are waiting, all are in robot mode.
DINOBOT: The Amazons are heading out to the desert to investigate since their base is closest. (Dinobot doesn't seem to feel any better.)
PANTHOR: If anyone can handle what the Titans whip up, it's them. (The monitor lights up and Whiplash looks at the computer, puzzled.)
WHIPLASH: The Amazons. (he brings up an image on the monitor, Shellshock, in robot mode is huddled behind a computer looking into her wrist communicator.)
DINOBOT: I thought you'd already left. (The young Maximal has a terrified look on her face.)
SHELLSHOCK: Something, something attacked us! I-I-I don't know what it was! It was fast! I ducked back into the base, I don't know how long until it notices me.
DINOBOT: What attacked you!?
SHELLSHOCK: I don't know, it was, it was horrible, it just attacked out of nowhere! I'll leave the scanners and surveillance on, I know it'll find me soon. (She turns on all of the cameras and scanners, there are various images in and outside of the small hole dug into the ground that is the Amazon base, an airborne camera even shows a view far above their plateau.)
BAMBARD: You can still get out Shellshock! (On one of the monitors the dark creature passes quickly by the camera and enters the hatch to Shellshock's position.) Get out! (Shellshock comes out from behind her hiding place and takes a large energy mini-gun from the wall, she sees the ladder moving slightly and starts firing like crazy, the flow of projectiles begins cutting through the dirt wall, the Maximals watch as the creature flies swiftly down the ladder, tucking its wings in and bounding across the floor, it dodges the shots with amazing speed.) Nooooooooooooooooooooo! (Shellshock is hit by the creature and flies back against the wall, the Maximals watch as the creature wraps its wings around her, Bambard turns away, Dinobot puts a hand on his shoulder.)
DINOBOT: We'll get this thing, somehow. (Whiplash is working like mad on the computer, he scans everything, the creature's composition, energy center and DNA, then the creature stops, it drops the stasis locked body of Shellshock and turns to the main viewing camera, it looks for a moment with its eyeless stare, then screeches and lunges, the camera goes out, the creature flies out of the hole and into the night sky, the airborne camera shows it heading in the direction of the Maximal base.)
WHIPLASH: I don't know what this thing is, it's a transformer, yet organic, that seems to be its beast mode but I can't access a robot mode, it has a spark, but vital systems of a living creature, its body is composed of a mixture of organic, technologic, and dark-matter, (He looks at the camera.) and it's heading straight for us!
DINOBOT: Is that thing? (He doesn't want to finish the sentence.)
WHIPLASH: Rattrap's spark is in there, but dormant, it is almost like it's a host, holy slag, I don't believe it! (The others look at him.) There's traces of human organics! (Everyone is taken off gaurd by the observation.) It must be a glitch. (Dinobot brings up a grid on the center table, a three dimensional image of their base.)
DINOBOT: If we can't kill this thing, we'll have to catch it, this section of the ship is big and organized very nicely, we should be able to trap it somewhere.
WHIPLASH: I'll try to find something that can counter dark-matter.
BOOMERANG: That crazy koala'll be here soon.
DINOBOT: Then this is the plan. (They lean over the table and he starts pointing out places on the grid.)
Scene goes to a little later, above the canopy of the jungle sails the creature, heading straight for the Maximal base embedded in the side of the mountain face, inside the base everyone is scrambling to their positions, Dinobot and Whiplash are in the engine fusion room, no longer of any use but sheer magnetic field, both in robot mode, Whiplash hands him a small gun with a blue missile on the tip.
WHIPLASH: This is in case we can't catch it. (Dinobot takes the object remorsefully, they watch the cameras as the creature enters the open cargo bay, it reaches the door and swoops back to ram into it, there is a metallic clanging as the creature shatters the already weakened metal.)
DINOBOT: Suddenly there came a tapping, as of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. (Whiplash looks at him in confusion, the creature whizzes by several cameras. In his hallway, Parrator is ready to go, an alarm goes off in his sector, signaling the creature's approach, he watches, waits, then runs down the hallway, the creature close behind him, he dives through a door and Bambard closes it, he converts to beast mode and begins running on his powerful yet nimble legs, the creature is hot on his tail, Bambard is a few feet away from the next door, Panthor hits the button and the door begins to close, Bambard slides under the door and Panthor converts to beast mode and begins executing the same routine, in the engine room Dinobot and Whiplash are watching the plan carry out.)
WHIPLASH: Will it work?
DINOBOT: I don't like the alternative. (Parrator closes a door as Panthor slides under he begins sprinting down the hall when he realizes he isn't being chased, he pulls out his beak gun and whirls around.)
PARRATOR: Guys! Guys!? Where is it! (Whiplash goes to infrared and looks at a 3-D image, there is a Maximal insignia, and a red dot, Whiplash's voice comes in over the intercom.)
WHIPLASH: It's right behind you! (Parrator freezes, feeling hot breath on his shoulder, two hands grab his shoulders and two more hold his waist, the creature hacks both of his arms off and turns him around, bringing Parrator's head closer to the gaping mouth in its chest, the three tongue/mouths extend and head for Parrator's face, Dinobot turns away from the screen as Parrator screams in terror. Panthor's voice comes in over the intercom.)
PANTHOR: What's going on!? (Dinobot presses a button, his voice is choked with anger.)
DINOBOT: Parrator is down, proceed with the plan. (Panthor and Bambard look at each other, then split up.)
WHIPLASH: I'll go out there and help them! (He draws his light saber and saw/shield and runs out of the door, closing it after he leaves. Dinobot looks over the wall of surveillance equipment, he sees the three Maximals getting into their next position, he turns then looks back over every monitor.)
DINOBOT: It's gone! (He looks at the infrared, there is a red dot right next to a Maximal insignia, moving with it, he looks on the camera Bambard is walking slowly down the hallway. In the hallway Bambard walks carefully, razor sharp antler hands ready, Dinobot's voice comes in over the intercom.) Bambard, don't, move. (Bambard freezes in terror, he slowly looks behind him, then in front of him, he hears a click above him in the ceiling.)
BAMBARD: Ahhhhhh! (He lets out a scream of rage, pulls his gun out and fires like crazy into the ceiling, the camera zooms in on his feet, four sets of black fingers come through the grating and grip it, its tail shoots up out of the floor, Bambard jumps back, the razor edge barely missing his face, the creature starts cutting away the metal floor so it can attack, Bambard turns and starts running, the whole time firing behind him, he rounds a corner and the creature bursts out of the floor, screeching, it half jumps and half flies through the hall, bouncing off the wall on the corner. In the engine room Dinobot is watching.)
DINOBOT: I can't do anything here! (As he watches Bambard run he gets more and more tense. In the hallway Bambard rounds a corner, the creature rounds the corner and is close-lined by a black and blue metal arm joined with an orange and black transmetal arm, it skitters to the floor, Panthor's arm is broken from the impact and Boomerang's is ripped completely off.)
PANTHOR: Ah! (Bambard stops and looks back, Boomerang falls back against the wall.) Keep going kid! (Bambard runs around the corner, Panthor looks to where the creature was laying, it's gone, he looks behind himself, so is Boomerang.) Come on! You want me!? Come and get me! (He takes his gun out and throws it to the ground, he looks around the dark corridor, then the creature comes out of nowhere, ramming him off his feet, Dinobot watches.)
DINOBOT: Brave warrior. (He looks at a map of the base.) Whiplash, Bambard, you still have to get it here. (Bambard jumps out behind the creature in beast mode and runs at it, the creature jumps and Bambard barrels past and keeps going, the creature begins pursuing him down a hallway. In another part Whiplash is ready to close a door, Bambard comes around the corner and runs past, Whiplash closes the door and runs to the side. Inside the door Bambard converts to robot and starts walking down the hallway, the creature ignores Whiplash and travels headlong through the door, Bambard turns and sees the dark creature tackle him, he looks up, the second mouth is twitching inside the creature's first.)
BAMBARD: Ah! (Whiplash stops, the door in front of him is the one into the engine room, he turns around and sees the creature waiting at the end of the hallway, hunched over. Whiplash turns on his saw shield and raises his light saber, the two scorpion tails at his shoulders twitch and tense up, the rattlesnake head/neck sticking out of his back and over his head opens its mouth and rears back, preparing to strike.)
WHIPLASH: Who's got the best blades here!? (Whiplash runs at the creature, he starts slashing and striking, his body is a blur as he travels at the monster, it flies up and hovers, it prepares its claws and tail.) Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! (He and the creature collide, claw against sword, tail to tail, the creature slashes the ceiling and a panel falls down on Whiplash. The creature looks down at him, his head and arm are the only thing sticking out from under the panel, it picks up Whiplash's saw/shield and turns it on, Whiplash watches helplessly as the spinning dilophosaurus frill approaches his neck. Dinobot slams the monitor in the engine room, he hears the creature ramming the door.)
DINOBOT: Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before. (The sound stops, Dinobot walks up to the door, draws one of his swords and his gun, and opens the door, peering out into the empty, dark hallway.) Here I opened wide the door; darkness there, and nothing more. (He goes back into the engine room and closes the door, the small gun with the blue missile still connected to his side, he looks around the dark room, complete silence, then, the ceiling explodes above him and moonlight pours in, the monster swoops in and lands on a beam about fifteen feet off the floor, above Dinobot, it sits there staring at Dinobot while the moonlight casts eerie shadows of it at the Maximal's feet.) And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming, And the lamplight o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor. (The creature continues to watch him and lets out a slight hiss.) Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou, art sure no craven, Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the Nightly shore- Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore! (The creature ignores the quote and lets out a scream that could shatter glass.) So then, a simple name for such a brutal creature, Scream.
(Scream, a fitting name since that is the reaction caused by glancing this monster, it looks down at Dinobot, who is edging closer to a control panel. Dinobot dives for the computer and hits a button, there is a mechanical whirring sound as the engines begin to charge the plasma relays. Dinobot holds onto a support beam, Scream is sucked, by the magnetic energy, back past Dinobot and slams into the engines, wracked with electricity and plasma radiation, he spreads his four arms wide and begins to glow a strange red color, Scream digs his claws into the core and begins to draw the energy out, he jumps off and lands on the ground, glowing with energy.) I didn't know you could do that. (Scream slices through the air, in an instant he pins Dinobot against a computer, he lowers his face to Dinobot's, Scream opens his mouth and the second mouth inside twitches, Scream lifts one of his hands and types on the computer, Dinobot slides the released hand close to the anti-dark-matter gun at his waist, Scream then presses a button that commands the computer to read his typing out loud.)
COMPUTER: Quoth the Raven, (Dinobot pulls the gun and puts it right into the gaping rift of a mouth in the creature's chest, Scream looks down at the gun inside his chest-mouth, Dinobot speaks the last part for the computer.)
DINOBOT: NEVERMORE! (Dinobot fires the anti-dark-matter missile into Scream, it sends the vile creature flying through the sky and out of the hole in the roof, the force is so great that the creature keeps traveling, he rolls into a ball and forms a bright shield around himself, he continues to travel through space and crashes on the largest moon. Dinobot slumps down to the ground and drops the gun.) Forgive me, Rattrap.
