		    	Broken Fate
--------------------------------------------------------------

	At the spaceport Godmonger stands looking over the base.
The Decepticons had let up long enough for the build bots to finnish 
repairs.  He had gathered his allies in the tower in order to discuss the situation.

	"As I've gathered our enemie's name is Magnatron.  And I'm fairly
certain that he's the same Magnatron as the Decepticon general who's
holding back the pax cybertronia.  I can't explain why they look nothing
alike but I'm sure it's the same one."  Said Godmonger.

	"Perhaps what we're seeing is a disguise.  To hid the truth of his identity."
Suggested Timestream.  "That's what I thought.  BUt it seems strange that he'd 
go through the trouble of changing his appearance and then so easilly give me 
his identity.  It's more like what I saw was his real identity.  And all his life
he's hidden behind a mask."  Godmonger realized he was going off on a tangent
and corrected himself.

	"anyway the point is that it's pointless to accuse him of being the same
Magnatron in front of the council.  He's out to assassinate me.  I know he's hardheaded
and single minded so our biggest advantage is that he won't try to go after any other
leaders untill he gets rid of me."  Said Godmonger.

	"Yes and don't forget that he's also being hunted by assassins himself.
But given his changing identity he won't be an easy target."  Timestream pointed out.

	The build bots stood scratching their heads trying to make sense of what was
being said.

	"I swear to Primus they're all the re incarnation of Grimlock"  Mumbled
Godmonger to himself reffering to the Build bots.

	Deep in Decepticon headquarters.  Magnatron is in his political mode and
preparing to lead.  "Lord Magnatron please reconsider."
Said the enormous robot who stood in the shadows.  "X I must got.  It is time
again I meet before the council.  If I should falter even once they may very well
assume I am no more and ratify the Pax cybertronia.  "But My lord why not
permit me to go with you?  I am known as your bodyguard.  No one would
question my pressence"  X replied.

	"I understand that.  But it is that very reason I'm going alone.
Someone is stalking me.  And I aim to draw him into the open."
Said Magnatron as he stepped through a sliding door.

	Elsewhere below the decepticon base.  The technological surroundings
gave way to solid rock.  In a darkened cave sat Nightwing.  The flickering
of weak overhead lights running on power fed to them from an extension cable
showed her battered body still not repaired from either the battle she had
faced with the build bots or the bitter abuse delivered to her by the angered
Magnatron.  A chain of some unimaginably strong material was wrapped around her
neck and attached to the wall.

	Nearby an underground waterway flowed by.  She stared
at the water in deep thought.  Another Decepticon approached her.
It was Buzzwing.  

	"Lady Nightwing your brother wanted me to ask if you were....."
Buzzwing began but was interupted by a still angry nightwing.  
"Feh, my brother.  Blackwing is as brainwashed by that psudo religious slag
Magnatron spouts as you are.  Why should he care.  He's the one who sold me out
in the first place."   

	"But your brother meant well.  He only thought you were straying from..."
agan Buzzwing was unable to complete a sentance.  "I'm not straying.
Magnatron is the one who's being disloyal to the decepticon cause.  
He's so obsessive that he won't even follow logic.  Get out of my sight
Buzzwing.  Tell Black wing that if he wants to talk he should do it 
face to face.  The coward."  

	Buzzwing held his head down at Nightwing's words and walked away.
After a moment of silence Nightwing smiled and looked out to the water.
"You were listening weren't you."  She said.
"I heard everything.  Is that really how it is now?  This is a sad
day for the Decepticons."  said a voice emanating from the water.	

	"Magnatron and I want the same thing.  If only I remind him
why I joined.  If I can remind him what real planning and leadership
is then we'll be stronger than ever."  Said Nightwing.

	"So you're still going to try and stop the signing yourself."
The voice replied.  "Yes and I think you're power may be more usefull.
I didn't want to reveal you to the other decepticons but now that i think of
it mabey it's better to avoid the chain in command alltogether.  Magnatron
couldn't possibly link this to me.  I have a mission for you.  
Pick an Autobot who's signed the Pax cybertronia.  Hunt him down
and don't stop untill you've scattered his remnants all over Iacon."

	In the council tower at the base Magnatron entered.
He stepped through a white marble lobby and into a circular room of
steel.  He stood in the center of a large metal disk which began to ascend up a long
shaft.  

	For awhile all was quiet except for the hum of machines that pulled this
rather sizable elevator toward the sky.  Then it sounded.  The sound of
a bullet loading into its chamber.  Magnatron glanced over his shoulder to
find a somewhat smaller robot behind him.  "Impressive assassin.  
I didn't even hear you approach.  Too bad you picked a noisy weapon."
Said Magnatron.  "Don't try to resist Magnatron.  I am assassinating
you by order of the Autobot/Decepticon peace council.  You can't be
allowed to continue this war any longer."  Said the would be
assassin who's body was short sporting a large jet and two wings from his back.
 "Bah what war.  We're already in a ceasefire.  What I aim for is to stop
the subjugation of my people and their decendants.  You autobots and your maximal
offspring are not to be trusted."  Said Magnatron.

	"It's too late now Magnatron.  You won't stop peace."
The assassin said.  "What's your name assassin?"  Asked Magnatron.
"It's Shinden.  and now that you know my name..."  "Stop that nonsense.
You're a poor excuse for an assassin.  You spent too much time talking already.
The fact is if you were going to shoot me you would have by now.  You've alredy
convinced yourself you won't have to pull the trigger."
Magnatron said grinning.

	Shinden stepped back for a moment giving Magnatron a chance to escape.
he did by dropping to his hands and sweeping his feet under the would be
assassin.  Shinden dropped to the ground and Magnatron was quickly on top of him
squeezing the unfortunate robot's head in his fingers.

	Having satisfactorally deformed Shinden's head Magnatron lifted him and
waited a moment.  The elevator having halted Magnatron Threw shinden through the
metal door and sent him crashing into the council meeting room.  Magnatron with
a grin on his face directed their attention to the ailing Shinden.
"Is that your idea of fair politics?  Well I'm still alive and as long as my spark
beats Pax cybertronia will not be ratified."  Said Magnatron with a mix of anger
and confidence as Shinden returned to his feet and transformed into a strange looking
jet fighter and shot off through the window to Primus knows where.

	Elsewhere Timestream traveled with Godmonger toward the council tower.
"You don't need to wait for me Timestream Go ahead to the tower."
Said Godmonger.  Timestream nodded.  He still had a hard time remembering
that in recent years he actually came to hold a higher rank than Godmonger
due to his scientific exploits in the production of the Transwarp drive.
Even if it was the same exploit that caused Neo convoy to be lost in
time.  

	Timestream transformed himself into Vehicle mode.  A shining silver
Delorean.  He sped down the streets and quickly dissapeared from the sight
of the much slower Godmonger.

	Slowly the high reaching tower in which the Autobot/Deceptiocon
council met was coming into view.  Alongside the road on which 
Timestream traveled was a flowing river.  A strange reminder of
What cybertron once was.

	Timestream for a moment thought he noticed a strange movement in
the water but shrugged it off.  Then again the same movement but more obvious
this time before subsiding.  "Fish?"  THought Timestream to himself.

	Then the river shot up in a towering wave splashing onto the street.
Timestream transformed and lept back as the source of this movement became clear.
Above the surface of the water was visable the deck of a submarine.

	Timestream looked in confusion as the parascome directed toward him.
Quckly transforming back to vehicle mode Timestream sped away down the street
as The sub gave chase on the parallell riverway and let loose a torpedo into the water.

	As the torpedo drew close to the speeding Timestream it lept
from the water and began to follow him down the street.

	Closer and closer the projectile drew.  Seeing an opportunity to
escape Timestream made a sharp ninety degree turn tires squeeling the 
whole way.  The torpedo continued on a streight path away from 
Timestream and exploded in the middle of the road.  

	Continuing on his detour Timestream put as much distance as he
could between himself and the river.  Son a loud thud followed by the cruch
of breaking pavement could be heard.  The sub had transformed into 
an enormous decepticon.  "THESE GUYS JUST KEEP GETTING BIGGER!"
Timestream exclaimed without slowing in the least.

	Unfortunately The large bot's giant stride made Timestream's
speed of little advantage.  Sacrificing speed for agillity Timestream transformed
to robot mode and ducked into an alley.

	Timestream quickly found himself at a dead end.  "what a
disgusting irony" he thought to himself.  Thankfull it seemed that The narrow
alleyway was too small for the mammoth Decepticon to fit through.

	With no immediate means of escape timestream looked on as the big 
Decepticon struggled to reach him.  Timestream decided this might be
a good point to launch a counter offensive.  Drawing a pair of rifles
Timestream let fly with a series of laser blasts that seemed to do very
little in the way of damage.  Timestream continued to send his barage on
bit by bit the big warrior stumbled back.

	"Whew.  Take that you out dated energon guzzler"  Said Timestream
boastfully.  The big decepticon didn't take the boast lightly
and in response lowered his shoulder mounted rocket launcers
toward Timestream.  "Oh slag."  Timestream said, his voice now quivering with
fear.

	Thankfully for Timestream another attack blasted The big bot
back down halting his attempt at a killing blow.

	Rushing in was an autobot much smaller than the Decepticon 
but still quite a bit larger than Timestream.

	This autobot was solid yellow much like the build bots.
He rushed in and jumped into the air giving a flying kick to the decepticon
behemoth's chest sending him crashing back down.  

	"A lot of autobots put in a lot of hard work to build this city.
We don't apreciate you're kind tearing it up."  Said the yellow Autobot.

	A moment later Godmonger drove in and began his assault without even
transforming.  First he let fly into the Decepticon with his gattling guns.
Then raised the large ICBM on his trailer.  But rather than fire it the
missile split open still attached to the trailer revealing a cluster
store of numerous smaller rockets.  

	Godmonger launched his compliment at the big Decepticon.
Rahter than face the onslought any further the big warrior
jumped into the air and as all decepticons do flew
away to parts unknown.

	Timestream emerged from the alley looking at the yellow autobot
as Godmonger transformed into robot mode.

	"Who are you?"  asked Time stream.  "Oh Big build thank Primus
you showed up.  Those lazy slaggars of yours need some real help."
Said Godmonger.  "You know this autobot Godmonger?"  Asked
Timestream.  "Of course he does.  I'm Big Build.  I guess you're
talking about my build bots aren't you."  Said the yellow Autobot.

	"Oh Timestream I haven't introduced you to him yet have I.
This is Big Build.  He's the build bot's foreman.  He's the one who maintains
the city."  Godmonger answered.  "Yup.  and don't forget I'm also working
on Cybertropolis."  Big Build said boastfully.

	"We could really use your help.  The Build bots are helping us to fight
off the new wave of Decepticon attacks.  Do you think you could?"
Asked Godmonger.  "Sorry no can do good buddy.  I got a lot of work
to do as it is.  The new cybertron won't build its self.  But tell those slaggers
that if they don't fill out twenty more cycles of work they're not getting paid."
Said Big build jokingly before transforming into a construction vehicle, which
apppeared to be a backhoe on one end and a bulldozer on the other
and drove off toward the nearest construction zone.

	Hours later at the end of the day.  Deep underground The big Decepticon
stood in front of the still boud Nightwing.  "It's allright Fathom.  You did your best.
Perhaps I got my point across to Magnatron."  She said.

	"That you did scheaming Fembot.  Even when I bind you you manage to sneak behind
my back.  A valluable asset."  Magnatron said entering the cavern.
He approached Nightwing and punched her in the cheek knocking her on her side.

	"Fathom on gut reaction swung his gargantuan fist down toward
Magnatron.  Magnatron raised one hand catching the fist and halting it with 
what seemed little effort.  "Nightwing I have looked into the eyes of my
assassin.  It seems my time is growing short and Someone must take my place
to stop the Pax Cybertronia when I am gone.  You've shown the innitiative.
If you will follow my lead.  And if you will strive to become a better
commander You can re join my ranks."  Said Magnatron as he broke the 
chain about Nightwing's neck.

	Magnatron began to leave then turned his head back to speak.
"Report to the repair bay and get yourself fixed.  and bring your friend."
