Transformers Prime react to Beast Wars: Transformers

Dark Designs

Warpath, Air Raid and Smokescreen cheered.

"That's the way to blam it on the Preda-creeps! Ka-Blam!"

"They're feel that in the morning!"

Ultra Magnus replied "I must say, Commander, we've had situations using the environment against the Cons, this may not be new to us."

"Maybe so, Magnus, but it serves effectively to survive that ambush."

"I'm just glad they made it out in one piece." Ironhide added.

"There's more than one way to skin a cat. So to speak." Rhinox complimented then transformed to Beast Mode. The Maximals soon followed suit. With Primal still injured, Rhinox assumed temporary command.

"No time to waste. Dinobot, lead the way. Rattrap, Cheetor, help Optimus. I'll cover the rear."

The aforementioned Maximals followed orders. 

"Just like Prime when Zeta was out for a while, eh?" Wheeljack commented.

The Autobots but their Supreme Commander snickered or shrugged their shoulders. Prime smiled.

"Well done, old friend." Primal groaned using Cheetor as support. "Steady nerves and quick thinking."

"Comes with the job-description." Rhinox replied.

"No I'm serious. If you ever wanted to, you'd make one prime leader."

"Much like our Bee here. Here's to hoping you'd be the next Prime soon."

"Air Raid!"

"I do agree. He's lead us when Prime's gone." Bulkhead added.

"Not you too, Bulkhead."

"Cheer up, Bee, you're in line to be the next..." Arcee assured.

"Thanks... but I'm gonna stay a warrior for now. Leadership's not something I'm sure of." Bumblebee said.

"Who cares? We'll be looking up to you when the last Prime's out!" Silverbolt added.

Prime nodded. He did leave command to Bumblebee when he sacrificed himself to restore Cybertron.

"Thanks anyway -- but I'll leave that sort of thing to you. I'd rather just tag along behind and smell the flowers.

Back at the rock pile, the Predacons barely dug themselves out.

"The rhinoceros. I do believe I may have underestimated him. Yess. And I could find a use for someone like that." then Megatron barks "Tarantulas!" prompting the tarantula Predacon to go ahead, knowing too well what his leader wants.

While the Maximals are moving on...

"Looks clear. Keep on going -- I'll catch up." Rhinox said... he was now too far behind the Maximals due to his slowness.

Tarantulas was anticipating Rhinox's coming and...

"Look out!" said Arcee.

...caught him in the cyberweb, strong enough to carry his weight. Unable to respond, Rhinox passes out due to the cyberweb's shorting of his systems.

"No..."

"Yes!" Shockwave blankly responded.

Rhinox woke up, tied up in what appears to be a claw of devices surrounding him, looking ready to cut him up if given the chance, and overseen by no other than Megatron.

"The Transmuter. Megacycles in the design, But infinitely well-worth the effort, Maximal, as you are about to discover. Yess."

"Transmutation? Strange. Even I had not resorted to such a method before..."
