Episode 5: No Escape

"This whole species is such a disappointment" **A purple Cybertronian said holding Cliffjumper by the neck** "I'll give you one more chance tell me where it is Autobot." **Cliffjumper couldn't respond...**

***20 MINUTES EARLIER***

**Pheonix and Cliffjumper are still practicing their aim as Hotrod and Ultra Magnus just finished their training, they go cool off and look at some scenery to talk about Hotrod's power and potential**

"So Pheonix, will you ever decide to tour Cybertron?" **Cliffjumper asked as he nailed the targets. bullseye!** "Yeah ofcou-"

***BOOM***

**The ground echoes and shakes** "ENEMY FORCES BREACHED, THIS IS NOT A DRILL. I REPEAT, ENEMY FORCES HAVE BREACHED THE BASE GRAB YOUR WEAPONS AND GET READY TO DEFEND THIS BASE! TARGET IS AT THE BASE OF THE MOUNTAIN" **An announcer said on the comms** "Move out Pheonix! Come with me." **Cliffjumper said as she followed him to a place where they could activate set traps, but as they got into the room they saw a Purple Decepticon walking up the summit slowly** "The hell... Who is that, that's a Cybertronian?!" **Pheonix said slightly in shock, she thought all Decepticons were ridden off Earth...** "I'm thinking the same as you don't worry, but it's only one of 'em, we got this! Shoot that bucket on the right I got the left, it will activate an avalanche." **Pheonix proceeds with orders as they both shoot two large buckets and drop explosions onto the mountainside. The explosions create a large avalanche, Skids and Mudflap arrive as this happens, and the avalanche gets to the Cybertronian, and they can't tell what happens... Everything below got covered in more and more snow... Skids and Mudflap excitedly fist bump then transform and start driving down the hill.** "Wait you two! Don't be so reckless! slow down!" **Cliffjumper ordered, the twins played it off as a joke and raced down faster, they get to the spot where the Cybertronian should be buried, and they both clapped and high-fived each other until the Cybertronian emerges... out of what was the avalanche and shoots his cannon at Mudflap.** "BROTHER NO!!!" **Skids says as he tries to push him out of the way...**

***BOOM***

**Parts are flying all over, cords and energon spill all over Skids as he looks at... Mudflap terrified... Mudflap's whole upper body is gone as his Cybertronian guts hang loose, Skids gets to his knees holding what remains in his hands as the Decepticon walks closer to Skids, Cliffjumper and Pheonix shoot at the intruder but it's like their bullets barely affect him. He gets to Skids and rips the top of his head off and rips his hand into his chest pulling out his spark and feeding it to Skids.** "Now you can taste your own fear Autobot" **He says as he pushes the lifeless bot to the ground and resumes walking towards the base** "What the hell is this thing?!" **Pheonix says terrified** "Come on Pheonix we gotta go! Jump in my hand!" **As Cliffjumper commands this she does it, other soldiers run to the front gate and shoot at the Decepticon, they all get wiped out with a single beam from his fusion cannon, he then throws a grenade and after it explodes Cliffjumper is seen running away with Pheonix as the base starts collapsing** "Cliff watch out!!!" **Cliffjumper tries to move out of the way but debris catches his legs and he falls over, Pheonix falls out his hands sliding across the ground. The Decepticon is still slowly making his way to them** "Pheonix... G-go get out of here!" **Cliffjumper says as he tries to get the debris off him. Pheonix let's a few tears out as she begins running, the Decepticon makes his way to Cliffjumper and throws the rubble aside** "No more running, no more hiding" **He says coldly** "Who the hell are you?" **Cliffjumper says as he tries to get up** "Your worst nightmare" **As Cliffjumper hears that a chill goes down his spine as the Decepticon grabs him by the chest plate** "Now tell me where the weapon is." **The Decepticon commanded as Cliffjumper spat in his face** "Alright then, let's see, would you like it quick or slow..." **There's a pause** "Doesn't matter, I've chosen already" **The Decepticon then staps his hand into Cliffjumper's throat and rips his voicebox out, and crushes it. He uses his other hand to grab Cliffjumper by the neck and holds him in the air** "I'll give you one more chance tell me where it is Autobot." **Cliffjumper can't answer back...** "I kind of forgot you needed what I destroyed, you're useless to me now" **The Decepticon throws him to the ground then grabs his legs and arms, and rips him in two...** "Cliffjumper!!!" **Ultra Magnus yells as he arrives, along with Hotrod by his side** "Sorry was he important?" **The Decepticon said with true hints of curiosity** "Cliff..." **Ultra Magnus says as he stares at his fallen comrade, one more Autobot shows up, Boom.** "Get down y'all!" **Boom said kicking falling debris away, the Decepticon jumped after Boom...** "Boom watch out!" **Ultra Magnus said as he jumped in the way and his hands mixed with the Decepticons, the Decepticon didn't budge. Instead, he flung Ultra Magnus into the ground, Hotrod jumped in the way and punched the Decepticon, which caused him to stumble back some.** "Who the hell are you!?" **Hotrod said standing in front of Ultra Magnus as Boom stood beside him, both ready to fight.** "I must have forgotten my introduction, apologies. I am Tarn, Decepticon warlord, I'm here for what you've all taken, give it to me." **Ultra Magnus stood up shaking his head** "That weapon don't belong to you all anymore, you'll have to take it from us instead." **Tarn laughs and begins walking towards them** "3 vs 1 still isn't enough but shoot your shot Autobots, it's your own funeral after all." **After that he bolted towards Ultra Magnus as Boom lit up the ground in an explosion, which stopped Tarn for half a second. Hotrod then quickly and swiftly moved behind Tarn as they rushed from behind and in front. Hotrod and Magnus went in for a punch but Tarn jumped last second and they hit each other. Tarn jumped off their shoulders and went into the air pointing his fusion cannon at them charging it up, as he charged it Ultra Magnus equipped his shield and shortly after, the beam collided with the shield denting it some.** "Quite a powerful blast "purple" guy." **Hotrod said as Boom snuck behind Tarn and went in for the kill. Tarn caught Boom's sword then stabs Boom through the stomach with it and brings the sword up splitting him in two. Hotrod stood there shocked at the sight of Boom... Ultra Magnus began taking off some armor plates...
