Episode I
A FEW MONTHS PASS SINCE THE PREVIOUS EPISODE'S EVENTS

-the Wreakers are back inside their bunker, when Sandstorm rushes in-

Sandstorm: Guys! I just got word from up top! You won't believe this!

Wheeljack: What's that?

Sandstorm: Long story short...we're getting an TANK!

Wheeljack: Sweet!

Sandstorm: I know, right? Now we can kick some serious Maverick butt on the front lines! Hopefully.

Wheeljack: Sounds like my kind of fun.

Sandstorm: Same here bud.

Wheeljack: We should get to wreckin' soon!

Sandstorm: Hey, where are the others?

Wheeljack: They're training. Some of them are on a scout patrol with the Hunters. Hope all goes well.

Sandstorm: Ah.

Wheeljack: We better check in.

Sandstorm: Right, right, let's do it.

LATER....

Sari: (checking up her ammunition and weaponry)

Sandstorm: -from the hall outside- I didn't get all the specifics, but let's hope that we can actually see it.

Sari: (eavesdrops suddenly)

Sandstorm: Should be big enough for all of us, and I even heard that they're using something like Supra-Force Metal for the ammo!

Wheeljack: So when do we head out, chief?

Slash Beast: Your equipment should be in hanger 17, stall 3. Your deployment plan will be preloaded, but do not proceed until your entire crew is present.

Wheeljack: Whatever.

Sandstorm: Got it, boss. Let's go mate.

Wheeljack: Right! (runs off)

Sari:.....(goes to check on Double)

Sandstorm: -heads to the hanger with Wheeljack- I think the boss said number 3...

Wheeljack: There we are.

Sandstorm: Ah, not bad! This thing looks like it can eat shots for breakfast!

Wheeljack: Can't wait to take out Maverick trash with this!

Sandstorm: The others better get their tin cans back here soon!

Sari: (walks in) Hey!

Sandstorm: Um, hi?

Sari: When do you think we're ready?

Sandstorm: Wait...are you assigned to this tank too?

Sari: Well sort of. I'm just moderating and testing, but the Colonel said I will if needed.

Sandstorm: I see... Well we were told that we're not to move out yet til the others get back... So whenever they get here we'll be rolling out.

Sari: I'm just worried whether or not Double will be able to help out.

Wheeljack: Uhh.....(awkward face)

Sandstorm: Err... -equally awkward face-

Sari: What?

Sandstorm: Pardon us for...not having the best reaction... That bot nearly scrapped us over...

Sari: Maybe, but he's changed. He's realized what he did was wrong and wants to be one of us...and with me.

Sandstorm: Um, yeah okay... That's fine... Pretty sure we've got it covered though, just need the rest of our boys to show up.

Sari: Alright then....(leaves)

Sandstorm: Alright... I'd like to say I'm drivin' this thing, but we should probably wait for the boss.

Wheeljack: Mhm....

Sandstorm: Scrap, they sure are taking their time...

Slash Beast: (walks in) Alright gang. It's time to suit up!

Sandstorm: Roger!

Slash Beast: We will all head out in our tanks and begin blowing every Mav to bits!

Sandstorm: Yes sir! Where's our crew?

Slash Beast: (points behind himself)

Sandstorm: Oh. Got it.

Slash Beast: We getting more Maximals as well for our trip.

Spinner Bardock: Bring it on! I can take 'em!

Wheeljack: Well, quite the crowd.

Slash Beast: Let's roll out!

Sandstorm: Rodger!

(the platoon rolls out to battle)

Sandstorm: WHOO-HOO! Drivin' is amazin'!

Wheeljack: Let's see how these babies do!

Sandstorm: Yeah! Them Mavs are gonna have another thing comin' to them!

Spinner Bardock: YEE-HAWW!!

-suddenly, an allied tank is sent soaring overhead, crashing on the other side and explodes-

Sandstorm: Whoa! What was that?!

Slash Beast: Not grand, I'll say that.....

-they come across a large area of destroyed tanks from both sides, some having Reploid body parts from the wreaks-

Spinner Bardock: Oh my god.....

Wheeljack: I know, kid. It's tough to look at.

-a Sigma tank draws close, and brings the cannons to bear on them-

Slash Beast: Take cover, then counter!

Sandstorm: Where?! -starts backing on instinct-

Slash Beast: (points to some building rubble) There, quickly!

Wheeljack: (looks up) We got company from the air!

Slash Beast: Let's see how well these babies do against air fleets.....FIRE!!!!

Sandstorm: -starts flooring it towards the rubble-

-the Sigma tank starts firing at the tank, blasting the side of it-

Sandstorm: GAH!

Spinner Bardock: What do we do?!

-the tank gets blasted again, a small fire blooms inside the tank-

Sandstorm: W-we're on fire!

Wheeljack: This ain't goin' well. Anyone got a way to put this out?

Sandstorm: Uhh.. -looks around frantically- Do we got an extinguisher around in here somewhere?

Slash Beast: Over at the other side. The fire's getting hotter!

Sandstorm: -grabs it and douses the flames-

-the tank gets hit again-

Slash Beast: GAAAH!! One more hit like that and we're history!
