Decepticon Origins: Shockwave and Blitzwing

On the robotic planet Cybertron, tension is rising within the Autobot government, as a group of rebels called the Decepticons begin to form. However, the traditions of the Cybertronian society continue. Most especially, the entertainment; gladiatorial battles within enormous arenas all over the planet. The story focuses in an arena in the city of Tarn, which had fighters with bizarre appearances that fans couldn't get enough of and a special ranking system, dependent on the praise each fighter has. We turn to an intellectual bot by the name of Blitzwing, who's multiple faces and triple changer abilities made him a fan favorite. His praise from the fans meant he was soon to be given the title "Champion", the fighter with so much praise for his victories, he will get special treatment compared to the other fighters. But when a new, younger bot is forged and tossed into the pit, Blitzwing seems to have the opportunity to gain something better than bloodshed.
