Hello everyone and welcome to another edition
of TFWire .com's War Stories, Episode 7. I'm
your host, Steve Slash Megatron. Today I'm reading
a story by Opticron Primal. The story is called
City of Ruin. boom a thunderous blast heard on
the east side of the city of tranquillity debris
falling like meteorites from the sky the streets
were bare of life for the inhabitants had been
evacuated before the evil could get to it first
the army tried to contain them but there was
nothing they could do this is it their war and
interfering would be fatal from the blast area
a black g m c four by four top kick Skids around
the curb and races towards the cutoff point of
the city the army had marked so no bystander
would be caught in the fight. As the truck raced
closer, it started shifting and changing, soon
becoming upright. Legs formed, then the torso,
the arms and cannons, and then finally the head.
When it reached the cutoff point, the truck was
gone, and in its place stood a huge robot with
cannons on each forearm. from the soldiers that
stood near the point a boy walked forward he
looked like an ordinary teenager wearing a brown
sweater dirty jeans and worn sneakers he looked
up at the robot without fear sam everyone made
it out okay the bot asked yeah don't worry about
us ironhide go and stick it to those creeps he
said with a smile on his face will do the bot
ironhide said as he changed transformed back
to his previous form of a pickup you'd better
get back that blast came from brawl and if that
vermin finds out you humans are here before he
finished he sped away knowing that sam had a
good idea what he was going to say the enemy
spoken of brawl was creeping his way through
the deserted streets of tranquillity turning
his gun towards every opening to be cautious
brawl had taken the form of an army tank when
he arrived on earth it was no ordinary tank it
had missile pods and machine -gun turrets mounted
on different areas of its body and scanning it
made brawl a one -bot wrecking crew as he slowly
trundled through the streets and around curbs
he heard tires screeching towards him in the
distance he saw a silver figure speeding in his
direction the figure was another vehicle a pontiac
solstice its silver paint glimmering in the sun
its tires screeching on the blacktop road when
the sports car was in a mile of brawl it started
transforming the same way as ironhide had only
faster the robot formed was small but fast as
lightning he had a visor covering half of his
face with an antenna sticking out on each side
of his head he had three pronged hands with small
spikes on each finger suddenly his right hand
morphed into a futuristic looking gun as he charged
in brawl's direction preparing for battle brawl
also transformed but into a large menacing robot
twice the size of the pontiac robot he had three
razor -sharp bladed hands and guns that would
make the military quiver brawl stood his ground
as the other robot sped closer so he sneered
The first move has been made. He prepared himself
for battle. The Pontiac robot came within one
city block of Brawl and leapt into the air all
the while yelling, This ends here, Decepticon!
