Narrator: The battlefield has shifted. The Autobots and Decepticons are racing through space to face the greatest evil the Transformers have ever encountered. They have entered… the Unicron Battles.

Narrator: As the Decepticons make their way back home, Galvatron is preparing for his biggest battle ever. The Decepticon ships are ready for action. And Galvatron, armed with the Skyboom shield, the Star Saber and the Requiem Blaster, knows that the victor will control the universe.

Galvatron: Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh… Let’s go!

Decepticons: Aaaaahh!

Galvatron: Throw me the Requiem Blaster!

Demolishor: Here!

Galvatron: Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! All right, men. Let’s dispose of the small fries first. Fire at will!

Thrust: Spread out, and don’t let a single one get away. This is where the battle begins and ends, gentlemen!

Wheeljack: You got it!

Starscream: Up there, Thrust.

Thrust: Get them, Starscream! Can’t you see I’m a little busy here?

Starscream: I can’t believe this has come to this.

Thrust: What are you talking about?

Starscream: You know… The Mini-Cons becoming heroes!

Thrust: You’ve lost it!

Galvatron: This is the limit… The limit of my patience.

Starscream: Galvatron will end up getting all of the the glory.

Thrust: Heh, heh, heh, hahahaha… Let him lead the way into battle, Starscream. And with any luck, the Autobots will knock him off. Haha. Take a look around you, my friend. If you remain calm and follow my orders like a good soldier, in no time, the universe will be ours!

Hot Shot: Engineering! Isn’t it fixed yet? We gotta warp outta here!

Red Alert: I’m on it!

Hoist: What for? The engine’s completely fried.

Red Alert: Enough whining, Hoist. Now let’s pick up the pace and finish this. Understand?

Hoist: Yeah, yeah.

Carlos: Aw, so what’s taking them so long? We’re like sitting ducks here.

Billy: He’s right. The Decepticons could attack at any minute.

Rad: Hey. There’s really no point in getting upset about it, guys.

Alexis: Rad’s right. Let’s not panic.

Fred: I just wish — they’d get the kitchen up and running again.

Rad: (VO) We were all worried about the other Mini-Cons that were being held prisoner aboard the Decepticon ship.

Optimus: Blurr, have you had a chance to approximate our landing co-ordinates when we arrive at Cybertron?

Blurr: Yes, sir. According to my latest calculations, the most severe fighting will be in the north polar region. It looks like we’re behind schedule already. We should land there and go straight into battle.

Hot Shot: Yeah, all right! I can hardly wait to kick some Decepti-butt!

Optimus: No, it’s too obvious.

Hot Shot: Huh?

Optimus: Galvatron will be expecting us there. Change co-ordinates to the south at 0502 degrees.

Hot Shot: But Optimus! That’s in the middle of nowhere.

Optimus: We can’t take any chances, Hot Shot. When we land, we’ll assess the situation. Blurr, activate engines, lock co-ordinates and warp speed.

Blurr: Engines engaged and set to warp, sir.

Carlos: Whoa! So that’s planet Cybertron.

Alexis: It looks deserted.

Rad: Oh, I thought it was at war.

High Wire: Enemy of the Mini-Cons!

Alexis: What is it, High Wire? What’s wrong?

Sureshock: Will destroy space!

Carlos: They’re freaking out! But how come?

Rad: Hey, where are you guys going?

Carlos: Yeah…

Alexis: Hey, dudes!

Hot Shot: Hey, did you just hear something, Jetfire?

Jetfire: Oh no… Optimus, sir! The Mini-Cons are headed for the jettison chamber.

Rad: I think they went this way!

Alexis: Wait, wait up!

Carlos: C’mon! Open up these doors!

Hot Shot: What in the heck are they doing?

Blurr: No clue, but I say we follow them.

Billy: Ya gotta help us!

Hot Shot: What’s up, guys?

Billy: Carlos just bailed outta the ship!

Carlos: Okay, I’ve got a job to do.

Rad: Hey, Carlos! Have you gone nuts?

Carlos: Hey! I can’t just sit and do nothing! Whoaaa! Hey! Hey, Sureshock! Come back! Aaaahh! Hey, what’s going on? Uggghh! Aaah! Help me! Ugh! Ah, it’s you, Blurr.

Blurr: You got it.

Carlos: Hey, ya mind explaining what’s going on out here?

Alexis: It looks like the Mini-Cons are forming some kind of shield.

Hot Shot: Why would they do that?

Jetfire: Good question. Maybe they sensed danger. Even worse, maybe they sensed the Decepticons.

Optimus: Keep them in visual contact!

Alexis: Hey, wait a sec. It’s Unicron. That must be it.

Carlos: Listen up! Come back here right now!

Optimus: No, Carlos. It’s not safe. Get back to the ship. We’ll handle this.

High Wire: Unicron is frightening.

Optimus: High Wire, Grindor, Sureshock, what are you trying to tell me?

Sideways: Heh, heh, heh, ha, ha.

Optimus: Who’s there?!

Sideways: Curse those Mini-Cons! Spoiling my surprise.

Optimus: Sideways!

Sideways: After all you’ve been through, I’m amazed you still remember me, Optimus.

High Wire: Unicron will destroy.

Sideways: If you mindless miniscule Mini-Cons don’t get outta my sight immediately, I’ll turn you all into space dust! Be warned…

Galvatron: What is going on out there?

Thrust: Those irritating Autobots must’ve caught up with us! Uh, just as you predicted, Galvatron-sir.

Galvatron: You’re right, Thrust! I did! Those imbeciles. Optimus is marching right into the palm of my hand, where I will crush him. I thought this was going to be more of a challenge for me. But even my arch-rival turns out to be a weakling. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha…

Starscream: (Thinking) I won’t allow you to have all the glory!

Rad: You’re safe!

Carlos: Yeah, and mission accomplished.

Alexis: Ohohoh! We were all worried! Huh? Who’s out there?

Rad: Alexis was thinking it might be Unicron.

Hot Shot: You’re saying Sideways was out there?

Optimus: I am, Hot Shot. But that’s not who the Mini-Cons are warning us about. Our real enemy lies even further beyond Sideways and that’s why they want to protect us.

Jetfire: Who could that be?

Optimus: It’s Unicron, and he’s heading straight for us. Sideswipe, what’s the situation on Cybertron?

Sideswipe: It appears all communication with the planet is cut off.

Hoist: Optimus-sir, I volunteer to go on ahead and scope out the situation.

Scavenger: We’ll all go.

Optimus: No, men!

Hot Shot: What do you mean, Optimus? It would be a surprise attack.

Optimus: Not a good idea. Listen, if we all attack from the same direction, we’ll be too big of a target. We’ve got to plan our assault.

Hot Shot & Blurr: Second unit, launch!

Scavenger: Attention! Is there anyone who can hear the sound of my voice?

Hoist: Ugh. Man, this place is a disaster.

Hot Shot: We come in peace! Optimus Prime has returned to liberate those who choose to live freely on Cybertron.

Optimus: Can anyone hear me? Jetfire, I think it’s best we split up and search for any survivors.

Jetfire: That’s if there are any. It looks like the Decepticons did a pretty thorough job here.

Optimus: What?

Galvatron: Hahahahahaha! Welcome to Cybertron! It’s so nice of you to join us. At least now we’ll be able to bury you on your home planet, Optimus Prime! Hahahaha!

[Transition]

Galvatron: Attack!

Demolishor: Aaaahh!

Cyclonus: Hahahaha! Oh yeah! Hahahaha!

Thrust: Hahaha. Isn’t this the perfect vantage point to watch the carnage below?

Starscream: Even the sound of your voice makes me sick, Thrust!

Thrust: Be that as it may, Starscream. But remember, you and I are allies to the end.

Jetfire: Optimus, you knew this was an ambush!

Optimus: Axalon ship, this is Optimus. Can you read me? Over.

Sideswipe: Roger that. We copy, sir.

Optimus: Listen carefully. Watch Overload. Understand?

Sideswipe: What? But then the ship will be open to attack!

Optimus: Trust me. They’re not after the ship. Your duty right now is to protect the humans and the Mini-Cons, Sideswipe. We’ll go after Galvatron from down here.

Sideswipe: Yeah, but Optimus-sir! What am I supposed to protect the Mini-Cons with?

Red Alert: Just do as you’re told and don’t ask questions, Sideswipe.

Sideswipe: Th-that’s insane!

Red Alert: That’s an order! You understand?

Sideswipe: Yes. Yessir.

Carlos: Aw, man. I feel so useless.

Fred: I’m getting hungry.

Alexis: Are there any Mini-Cons left on Cybertron?

Optimus: Optimus, super mode! Transform! Overload, powerlink! I’ll hold them off. You lead a party and check for survivors.

Jetfire: You got it, Optimus.

Hot Shot: Haha! All right! Watching all those kung-fu movies sure paid off!

Blurr: And who said television wasn’t educational, hey, Hot Shot?

Hoist: It’s time to slam a little Decepti-scum!

Scavenger: Excuse me, but you’re in my way! Attention! Any survivors? Help destroy the Decepticons! Heh, heh, heh, heh…

Hot Shot: Would you look at that? Awesome!

Blurr: So there were survivors after all.

Optimus: Excellent!

Jetfire: Looks like we’re back in business!

Rad: Wow! They were all hiding!

Alexis: It looks like they’re all not afraid of anything anymore. Especially now since the Autobots showed up.

Carlos: Huh? Oh no!

Alexis: Huh? What’s wrong, Carlos?

Carlos: Hey, what happened to our Mini-Cons, guys?

Kids: Huh?!

Carlos: Look! Over there! Just where do you think you’re going, anyway? You’re saying you want to help the Autobots fight? But it’s too dangerous!

Rad: Hey, wait, Carlos.

Carlos: Uh, Rad? Would you mind not interrupting here?

Rad: Maybe we should let ’em go.

Carlos: Fine! See if I care! You happy now, Rad?

Alexis: Carlos, I agree with Rad.

Carlos: Aw, not you too, Alexis!

Rad: We’ve gotta remember they’re not human. And they’re programmed to help — especially the Autobots.

Carlos: But these guys are like best friends to us! How would you feel if they got destroyed in battle? Huh? No way! Hey, you guys, open up!

Rad: Let them go, Carlos. There’s nothing you can do now. Remember, they’re fighting for their freedom, and I can’t blame them for wanting to help out.

Carlos: You’re right.

[Commercial]

Galvatron: Ready or not, here I come, Optimus Prime!

Optimus: Galvatron!

Galvatron: That was very impressive the way you called out everyone to battle. Sadly, you don’t have near enough resources to win.

Optimus: Enough!

Galvatron: What — do you mean?

Optimus: This war transcends far beyond us, Galvatron. A force is coming and you and I alone cannot stop it.

Galvatron: You’re not making any sense.

Optimus: All I know is Sideways had something to do with this. And according to the Mini-Cons, our true enemy goes by the name of Unicron.

Galvatron: Ha! You’re just buying time before I dismantle you piece by piece.

Optimus: I’m not lying!

Galvatron: Nice try, Prime.

Optimus: Huh?

Galvatron: Aaaah! Ugh! You fool! I never thought I’d see the day when you — Prime — would begin to lie!

Optimus: That day will never come, Galvatron. I speak only the truth! See for yourself.

Jetfire: What’s going on?

Optimus: Doesn’t that prove it? That force up there is so powerful the only way to defeat it is to combine our forces.

Galvatron: Another elaborate trick, eh? Well, I’m not falling for it.

Optimus: How can I get this through that thick mainframe of yours?!

Galvatron: Now what?

Thrust: Hahahahaha… The plan is finally coming together. Soon there will be no challenge to us! Hahahahaha!…

Starscream: Have you completely lost your mind, Thrust?!

Thrust: …Hahahaha!…

Starscream: He’s mad. He’s not making any sense!

Thrust: …Hahahah — aaahh, what?! Oh no! What is that?!

Rad: Hey guys, look! It’s the Mini-Cons! Check it out! I’ve never seen anything so incredible!

Kids: [Cheer on Mini-Cons]

Carlos: Hey look, they’re getting sucked into that black hole.

Alexis: Oh no.

Rad: Maybe that’s where they’re headed for, guys. And there’s more coming.

Alexis: Hhh!

Cyclonus: I can’t get anywhere with all this — ugh — useless junk getting in my way!

Jetfire: Would you like a little cheese with your whine?!

Cyclonus: It’s raining in space? Whuwhuwhoa!

Jetfire: Who’s doing this?

Mini-Cons: Stop the fighting. Stop the fighting.

Scavenger: Looks like someone likes you.

Generic Decepticon: Uh, huh… Uh, huh.

Hot Shot: The Mini-Cons are doing this!

Optimus: You see, Galvatron? The Mini-Cons are trying to protect us.

Galvatron: Yes, I see quite clearly. Interesting ploy, but it doesn’t fool me in the least, Optimus Prime.

Rad: Look! The Mini-Cons are overpowering the forcefield!

Demolishor: Galvatron! Come in, sir! Can you read me?

Galvatron: What is it now?

Demolishor: This is so bizarre. Whatever was attacking us is in full retreat. And it’s because the Mini-Cons forced them back, sir!

Galvatron: I still don’t believe you, Prime. Not in the least. Men, retreat!

Optimus: Huh? Autobots, back to the ship! I wasn’t expecting this so soon.

Thrust: Hmm… I wonder why they backed down. I suppose those moronic Mini-Cons didn’t help when they gave away the element of surprise.

Starscream: I suppose.

Thrust: Well, we better follow our great leader’s order and head back.

Sideways: You Mini-Cons will pay for this… And it won’t be pretty! Hahahahaha! Hahahaha!

Carlos: Aw, dudes, that was sweet!

Rad: Just goes to show you, even the little guys can win the big one.

Optimus: You’re right, Rad. If it wasn’t for the Mini-Cons, things might’ve turned out a lot different.

High Wire: Unicron is frightening.

Rad: Huh?!

High Wire: Unicron will destroy.

Grindor: Will destroy space.

Carlos: Ah, what do you mean by that?

Alexis: Grindor says they’ll protect us.

Rad: Does that mean they’re coming back for more, Optimus?

Optimus: I wish I could say no, Rad. But the Mini-Cons are right. It’s not just the Decepticons anymore. Now Unicron has joined the battle for the universe.

Galvatron: Bah! Who cares about Unicron, anyway? Doesn’t he know who I am?

Demolishor: But Galvatron-sir… What if — what if Unicron decides to come back?

Galvatron: I cannot believe you fell for that one, Demolishor. You are a fool. Unicron doesn’t exist, it’s just an Autobot trick! Now, listen carefully to me. Delete Unicron from that pea-sized brain and let’s concentrate on destroying Optimus Prime!

Thrust: (Thinking) Oh, dear Galvatron, you are making this easier than I ever imagined. Once Unicron’s power’s fully awakened, the master plan will be fulfilled once and for all! Hahahahaha!
