Origin Fanfiction
It's Beast Wars...where tooth, claw, and nail, along with lasers and steel, are what it takes to survive; where a third generation of Cybertronian Warriors in new factions and under different leaders battle for domination of a primative earth-like planet with vast energon supplies, so much that the warriors take on forms of indigenous life to shield their electronic components from the intense radiation of the element; one side bent on conquering the galaxy, the other determined to stop them. However, on this planet they are far from alone. They soon discover that the odd characteristics of this planet are a direct result of an experiment of an alien race more advanced than they could imagine. It's a universe of adventure where nothing is as meets the eye; the Beast Wars have begun and nothing will ever be the same.
Evolutions version1: Written before the Beast Wars television show was released, this story tells of a plan of the original Megatron to create an army and break the alliance using beastform technology. Not very accurate, it shows a way to make the small comic book in the Optimus Primal-Megatron two-pack work.
Evolutions version2: revision of version1 to make it resemble the TV show. It contains the effort to make the original Optimus and Megatron become the leaders on the show. I tried to create a string of stories from this, starting with Transformers: Battles for Cybertron, which turned out to be like what Machine Wars should have been.
The sequel to Evolutions version2. The Autobots, under new leadership, face the threat of a cloned Megatron and Galvatron. With some alterations, Hot Rod becomes Rodimus Prime once more, but will it be enough to stop the twin terrors of Decepticon leaders? The Battles for Cybertron have begun.
Transisions parts 1-3: the most accurate origin of Beast Wars and Machine Wars to date, three completely different stories follow the break up of the alliance 300 years after it began. Best read with The Final Strike preceding it.
In Transisions 1, the Maximals rush to stop a madman from trying to follow in Megatron's footsteps of trying to conquer the galaxy. The Maximal team of misfits must work together to stop the new Megatron and his evil plans.
In Transisions 2, overthrown by his own troops, Megatron's rule ends and the alliance crumbles. Starscream flees to the Autobots. Several Decepticons are redesigned. Optimus and several others are nearly destroyed; the redesigned forms of these Autobots play a part in the dawn of the Machine Wars.
In Transisions 3, Starscream's old spark finds its way to the planet that the old army inhabits. He joins the new Starscream's mind to find himself not very welcome in his powerful new body. Starscream takes command of the Decepticons, and under the new leadership turns Megatron into a raving lunatic, destroying any chance of reuniting with the Autobots. Will the Autobots win the first battles of the Machine Wars and save the new Starscream from his ancient counterpart? Or will Starscream become a lost ally as his old spark slowly retakes his body?
