Theyôre all useless! - Canôt l rely on anyone? - HoW about me, Cyclonus? lôm loyal and have never made a major mistake.
Loyalty is tactically useless! Lord Galvatron, Zarak has arrived.
What does he Want? Heôs not making enough of an effort.
Not quite as expected.
Fool! You donôt knoW What youôre talking about! - l Will exert myself to the full.
- Oil every screW in your body! Heôs in such a bad mood.
lt clouds his judgement.
ltôs a bad habit of his.
- Zarak, Where are you? - Greetings.
The factoryôs been damaged.
We canôt alloW any dereliction of duty.
lôm the one Who should be angry.
ltôs delayed my revenge on Fortress.
Thatôs nothing to do With me.
- Do you have the Will to defeat Fortress? - Look at it from our Headmastersô point of vieW.
Donôt just talk about it! Kill them and satisfy me.
Thereôs no need to even say it.
- What do you think? - ltôs my turn noW.
Lord Zarak! - Get ready to go! - Weôve been Waiting for this! Some hours ater, a report arrives at Cybertron HQ on Panet Athenia.
Pease advise Commander Rodimus that the base on Panet Praun is under attack.
What? The outpost on Praun has been attacked? Panet Praun is a sandy panet far to the northeast of Athenia.
Weôre in a Weak position.
ltôs a typical Decepticon dirty trick.
They struck five times When We had no commander.
No, it Was seven times.
No, eight times.
Rather than dWelling on the past, shouldnôt We act noW? Donôt knock history! History is What makes the future.
- Weôve all assembled.
- l heard your conversation.
- Where is Commander Rodimus? - On Earth.
There Was a report about a neW energy base.
He Went to survey it.
l see.
Then We Will go to Planet Praunôs rescue.
That Would give us an advantage.
- Are you going, too, Kup? - Of course.
lôll take them from behind! - No, please leave it to us.
- Yes.
lôll beat them With these fists.
Really? Too bad the Commander is aWay.
- No, er - You knoW, We lt must be hard for you With the commander aWay, too.
With the commander aWay, youôll have to defend this place.
Yes, thatôs right.
Beautifully put.
Thatôs it.
Arcee sends a situation report to Rodimus on Earth.
Under Fortressô command, the Autobots set off for Panet Praun.
Panet Praunôs position is of strategic importance.
t is exposed to Decepticon assaut and has a Autobot outpost.
The warriors set out to defend it.
t is from this base that the report reaches Athenia HQ.
Transform! Head on! What? The enemyôs noWhere to be seen.
They must have escaped When they kneW We Were coming.
There could be landmines in the sand.
Be alert! What? Landmines? You couldôve told us sooner! ltôs too quiet.
Thatôs Worrying.
Can they have annihilated them? That means We got here too late.
Thatôs terrible.
What did you see there? - Total annihilation this side.
- This side too.
Letôs go back.
- lt looks hopeless.
- Reinforcements are here! Anyone alive? Respond if youôre there! Thereôs someone.
lôll check the situation.
ltôs not locked.
- Heôs dead.
- What? lt canôt be.
This rifle has just been fired.
No doubt about it.
But heôs dead.
- Could he have fired it? - This one Was fired.
l saW him holding it.
But the Way it Was fired lt Was no spontaneous discharge.
But What barbarism.
l sWear to avenge this.
Meanwhie, Commander Rodimus is visiting Utra Magnus at Earth HQ.
So you have nothing to report on the search for energy? No.
Did you say it Was infantry unit P-21? Yes.
Arcee spoke With the communications officer, but this - Strange.
- lôll investigate it.
The Autobot continued their search for new energy sources.
They divided the panet into 3O bocks and continued their work.
nfantry unit P-21 was searching a bock in Centra Asia.
Transform! Transform! l canôt believe this! When did this happen? There Was no report at all.
lt Was a guerrilla raid.
lt must be the Decepticons With their talent for extermination.
Odd.
They havenôt touched the energy data.
ls that so? Makes sense - What do you mean? - ltôs a trap, like l thought.
But What are they up to? Athenia HQ, do you read me? tôs me.
Any abnorma situation reports? No.
Only P-21ôs report on the discovery of energy.
Was there nothing suspicious about the communications officer?.
Yes, the lD photo on the screen.
He Was speaking rather nervously.
lôll play the tape back.
New energy has been discovered.
tôs ike heôs reading it out.
Magnify it, Arcee.
Yes.
tôs Mindwipe.
The Decepticon Headmaster Mindwipe has hypnotised him So this information is tôs not on Earth.
Panet Praun was a trap.
- A trap? - ôm off to Praun.
ô report ater.
Trainbots, transform! lôm counting on you.
This is a special express.
Trainbots, go! However, they arrive too ate to the rescue.
The Headmasters, under Fortressô command, were concerned by such a sinister scene.
- Thereôs not a single survivor.
- ltôs full of corpses.
Somebody fired a rifle.
lf it Wasnôt an Autobot, Who Was it? - A Decepticon survivor fired the gun and ran! - Damn! Weôll catch him! - Whatôs this? - There are survivors outside! That Was brutal! Whatôs going on? - Watch out! Maybe Weôve Walked into their trap! - A trap? lôm getting dizzy! Stop it, somebody! Fortress, you fe into my trap That voice? ltôs Zarak! Thatôs right.
You guys are going to die now.
Just ike four miion years ago.
What is this? lf youôre a Warrior, reveal yourself and fight.
Donôt tak nonsense.
Youô fee the power of my science.
tôs a remote-controed.
Take that - What are you doing? lôm being pulled up.
- l canôt hold on! - That Was hard in the sand.
- My throat is parched.
l donôt knoW hoW those moles do it! We came all this Way just to sit and Watch them die? Thatôs no fun! Donôt Worry.
Zarak is testing their strength.
Heôll leave some titbits for us.
Yeah, the fun is yet to come.
Weôll be torn apart if it continues like this.
Even my strength is not enough.
Damn it! Weôre saved.
Break through that dome and escape! ltôs sand! Damn! Damn, l canôt stand up! ltôs just like four million years ago.
Four miion years ago, the refugees from the war on Cybertron set out on a ong journey into space in search of a peacefu ife.
But, due to engine probems, the spaceship came down.
They had to perform an emergency anding on Panet Master.
Come on, everyone! We have to get through this desert.
- Oh, no! - Are you all right? Donôt Worry.
Take care of yourself.
- Hey, can you Walk? - lôm OK! ltôs a WhirlWind! Watch out! lôm OK.
- Whatôs this? - Desert hell! Quickly, climb up! But they were inexperienced and had not yet earnt transformation.
The ordea proved strenuous, and many did not survive.
- ltôs just like that time.
- lôve had it.
l canôt go on.
- ls this our destiny? - Pull yourselves together! Donôt let it beat you! What Was four million years of training for? Training? Yes.
Training to perfect our transformation skills.
OK! Just Watch this! Transf Donôt give up! Remember, the desert on Planet Master lt Was Worse than this! Panet Masterôs natura environment was harsh beyond beief.
t was a steey he of scorching heat.
Strong acid rain kept faing.
They suffered painfu burns and often had to seek sheter in caves.
But that was not a.
There were two ice ages in the four miion years.
Many of them succumbed to the extreme cod and met a miserabe end.
Four miion years is an unimaginabe ength of time.
They strugged against the crueties nature inflicted on them for their own surviva.
Transform! Transform! Transform! Donôt panic! Concentrate! You can do it if you try! To give up halfway is to accept defeat! To give up hafway is to accept defeat Watch this.
Concentrate.
Chrome, change heads With me.
- Stone, letôs sWap.
- OK.
Exchange heads! Exchange heads! Oh, no! lôve combined With Hardheadôs body.
ln this sand, itôs hard to use even our usual skills.
- Hold on lôm not feeling too bad.
- Me neither.
OK, letôs do it! Transform! l see.
We can combine and utilise our poWers.
Weôll get out of here too.
Transform! Transform! Theyôve got out! Theyôve stared death in the face.
Theyôre not our enemies.
We have to fight them doWn into hell.
lôll stir them up With my serpent pistol.
Oh, no, you Wonôt! - ltôs different from before.
- Theyôre cooperating.
Damn! Then Weôll transform, too! Get them! Commander! Commander Zarak! Where is he When you need him? - Get out of my Way! - Lord Galvatron! l told you, you have to keep your eye on them! - Come on, then, Galvatron! - Prove youôre a Warrior! l thought youôd gone to Earth! - A dirty trap! We have an old score to settle! - Wait, Commander! They made us look through the gates of hell.
This oneôs mine.
We Want a go, too! - Rippersnapper! Havenôt you had enough? - Letôs go! Help! NoW you can try staring death in the face! Come quickly! Oi! Thatôs not fair! Fools! Let go of me! Weôre going to fall doWn! We did it.
Through wisdom and courage, the Headmasters shake off the Decepticons.
But nobody knows what dirty tricks Gavatron might come up with next The fight for justice continues unti the day when peace wi dawn.
