Fiction

Animated cartoon

Space bridge 687-030 was involved in a battle somewhere in outer space. There, the Autobot Team Athenia, composed of Rodimus Prime, Hot Shot, Red Alert, Brawn, and Ironhide, battled the likes of Team Chaar, composed of Strika, Spittor, Cyclonus, Blackout, and Oil Slick for control of the space bridge.

Cyclonus emerged in his jet mode out of a cloud of dust and created a huge gust of wind that lifted Ironhide, Brawn, and Hot Shot off their feet. Strika and Oil Slick headed for the fallen triad, but Ironhide activated his titanium armor as Strika fired plasma blasts from her turrets. Brawn used this time to pick up a huge chunk of rock from the ground and threw it at Strika. It almost hit Oil Slick, who briefly got shaken. Strika then fired at Hot Shot, who activated his flamethrowers to destroy some of the plasma blasts. However, one was able to escape his flames of fury, and badly injured his leg.

His leg broken, he called for a medic. Red Alert arrived on the scene, x-rayed his lower leg, then said she would need to amputate it. Just as Hot Shot asked for a second opinion, Spittor used his many mechanical tongues to grab hold of Red Alert. She was then upchucked, covered in orange explosive slime, towards Brawn and Ironhide. The resulting explosion knocked all three of them out, and Strika and Oil Slick moved in for the kill.

Rodimus saw the damage, and contacted Ultra Magnus while being divebombed by Cyclonus. However, Ultra Magnus and his team aboard the Steelhaven were occupied as well and unable to give them help.

Strika was about to crush the fallen Autobots under her fist, but Rodimus was able to fire two arrows at her just in time. Brawn and Ironhide transformed and fell back, but Oil Slick released some, er, oil slick, and caused the duo to slide. Cyclonus transformed and smashed the ground with his twin swords, lifting Brawn and Ironhide up into the sky. Spittor ambushed Rodimus, but the Autobot was able to arrow two of his tentacles to the ground. Rodimus looked up, only to see the brute Blackout, who transformed and created a shockwave that knocked Rodimus back and deactivated the space bridge. Strika insulted Blackout, then commanded him to reactivate the space bridge. Blackout apologized, then reactivated the space bridge. Strika ordered Cyclonus and Oil Slick to wrap up Hot Shot, Ironhide, and Brawn, then to free Spittor. Rodimus tried to retaliate, but Oil Slick tossed a vial of Cosmic Rust solution, and froze Rodimus right in his tracks.

Strika contacted Shockwave that they have taken the space bridge and requested access codes to his location, but he informed her that no one was to make a move until Megatron and his own team arrived on Cybertron. Strika was concerned, saying that he was supposed to be there megacycles ago...

Sometime later, the Steelhaven arrived to finally answer Rodimus’s distress signal. Strika relished the chance to fight the Elite Guard, but Team Charr was taken aback when Megatron announced a galaxy-wide cease and desist order. Strika expressed disbelief, but when Megatron threatened retribution towards any Decepticons who disobeyed his command, Strika reluctantly led a retreat from the space-bridge.TransWarped
