Owner's Description
Synopsis: "Devices and Desires!"
Optimus Prime dreams of a field of Autobot corpses. He is suddenly attacked by a corrosive black substance, which somehow seems familiar. As it eats away his arm, he wakes up to find Kup shaking him. Kup informs him that Grimlock, against orders, left Autobase with a raiding party. (Prime gave those orders because he regards these dreams as warnings of a second menace, and wants no incautious actions taken until it is identified.)
Grimlock and his party have stolen a shuttle from the Cybertronians, the Kiro. They have also stolen some docking codes, and use them to sneak on board Jhiaxus's flagship, the Twilight, which they plan to obliterate with a freaking enormous bomb. They land in the shuttle bay and exit the craft... only to find themselves surrounded by dozens of Cybertronian troops, commanded by Jhiaxus himself. He expected an attack of this sort, and the codes which Grimlock's party used were inadequate. He knocks Grimlock down. Red Alert, angered, raises his weapon, and is cut down by half-a-dozen weapon blasts. Grimlock, realizing the enormity of his error, surrenders. Jhiaxus orders them shipped off to the Liege Maximo.
En route, the prison ship is attacked by another Cybertronian ship, the Sabre. The startled Cybertronian guard comments that all its codes check out... and is then killed by Grimlock, who knows an opportunity when he sees one. The rest of Grimlock's party follow his lead (with Mirage getting killed in the process).
On board the Sabre, Optimus Prime had taken over the ship, but kept the crew alive (for their complete knowledge of the codes). Prime hails the prison ship, to tell them he's beginning docking maneuvers. Grimlock worries that Prime will hand him his shiny metal ass over this catastrophe.
Instead, Optimus Prime puts Grimlock in charge while he himself journeys back to Cybertron. He believes Grimlock has learned from his mistake (which appears to be true), and will think of his soldiers first from now on. Meanwhile, Prime believes he needs to commune with the heart of Cybertron to learn the truth of his visions.
"Tales of Earth Part One"
Meanwhile, Bludgeon is laying waste to Earth using his Warworld battle cruiser. Watching Earth broadcasts, he sees thousands, if not millions, are already dead. Bludgeon then leads a strike force to the surface to give the killing a more personal touch. Just as he is about to strike down some puny fleshlings, however, his weapon is shot from his hand. He is utterly startled to be faced with Megatron and Starscream, both back from the dead... and Megatron wants leadership of the Decepticons back. Now.
Released: December 1993
