The TV Shall Be Shared By All!
by Odeena Sabnach
*As the story begins, all the Beast Warriors, except for Rhinox, are just sitting around outside in the control room, which is now decorated as a regular living room, and doing nothing*
Cheetor: *yawns* Booooooring!!
Rattrap: Man dis stinks! Life is no good without cable TV!
Dinobot: For once I agree, vermin.
Cheetor: Waaaa, I want MTV!!!! *starts crying*
Black Arachnia: And I will never know how my soap ended... if Marsha got married to Jim instead of Mark, and if Laura finally found out that...
Skorpinok: Alright already with the soap stuff, ya're making me sick!
Terrosaur: *grins* Well I guess we all know WHO broke the TV set a megacycle ago...
*everybody gives Rattrap and Dinobot an evil look*
Rattrap/Dinobot: He started it!
Rattrap: Shut up Chopperface!
Dinobot: Do not force me to squash you vermin!
Rattrap: Ya know what yer mama was so ugly dat she'd get arrested for terrorism if she'd have shown her face in public widout a protection mask!
Dinobot: Why you-
Optimus: Alright knock it off you two! You see, it started exactly the same when you two broke the TV set.
Rattrap: Heh heh... actually it was Dino-Butt who blasted da slagin' thing.
Dinobot: I was chasing YOU vermin!
Rattrap: Oh yeah? Well dat proves yer nothing more than a sick slagin'...
Optimus: Enough! Right now it doesn't matter WHO started the fight, what DOES matter is that you are BOTH guilty and I don't wanna hear another word, got that?
Depth Charge: *in low voice* You know I still don't understand what are all the preds doing in OUR base.
Cheetor: *sigh* Well, since we nuked their base and Optimus is so dang noble, he simply invited them to stay with us for a while.
Depth Charge: *obviously sarcastic* How cute.
Optimus: I heard that! If you must know, Megatron would've done the same. Right, Megs?
Rattrap/Cheetor: Megs?!
Megatron: Yeeeessss, of course. *under his breath* NOT!
*Suddenly Rhinox bursts in, carrying a huge box*
Tarantulas: Hey, what's that?
Rhinox: *smiles* Guess!
Tarantulas: Um... a weird stasis pod.
Rhinox: Nope!
Rattrap: A new... er, computer-thingy?
Rhinox: Close...
Terrosaur: I know! It's a huge metal box!
Rhinox: Yes, but what's inside...?
Optimus: Give us a clue, will you?
Megatron: Yeeesss, a clue would be welcome.
Rhinox: Well it starts with 'T'.
Dinobot: A tank?
Rhinox: No.
Black Arachnia: Toothpaste for everyone?
Rhinox: *rolls eyes* No.
Rampage: Tigatron?
Tigatron: Hey!
Rhinox: *exasperated* Come on guys, what's that ONE thing you couldn't possibly live without?
Black Arachnia: Tarantulas?
Rattrap: No, stupid, that's what YOU can't live without.
Silverbolt: *gives him the evil look* Watch it!
Waspinator: Wazzzzpinator knowzzzz! TV!!!
*Everyone shoots him*
Waspinator: Why univerze hatez Wazzzzpinator? *goes into stasis lock*
Rhinox: But... but it IS a TV!
Everyone: Really? Alright! *various cheers*
*Rhinox opens the box and takes out a big-screen TV*
Rhinox: Surprise! And here's the remote, too. *takes out the remote control*
Black Arachnia: Back off everybody, my soap is about to start!
Cheetor: No way, I wanna watch the Backstreet Boys Special weekend on MTV!
Rattrap: In yer dreams kiddo! Rocky 10 is on! *grabs the remote, Dinobot starts chasing him*
Dinobot: Get the slag back here vermin!
Tarantulas: I'll catch him!! *throws a stasis-web at Rattrap, but misses and catches Rampage instead*
Rampage: Aaargh! *goes offline*
Tarantulas: Oops.
Rattrap: Look out! *bumps into Tarantulas, dropping the remote* Oh slag!
Black Arachnia: *catches the remote* Yes!
Quickstrike: Oh no ya don't!
Rattrap: Get her!!!
Dinobot: Agreed, vermin.
Black Arachnia: Take this you fools! *manages to trap Quickstrike, Rattrap, Dinobot and Megatron in a stasis web*
Inferno: You dare threatening the royalty! BURRRRNNN, traitor!
Silverbolt: Let my lady alone! *shoots Inferno, who goes offline*
Cheetor: Gotcha! *grabs the remote and runs away laughing his head off*
Depth Charge: Gimme that! *starts after Cheetor*
Skorpinok: I'll stop him! *shoots a missile at Cheetor*
Terrosaur: No, idiot, you'll trash the...
*KABOOM!*
*Tiny pieces of Cheetor everywhere!*
*The remote is now nothing more than a smoking pile of slag*
Terrosaur: Now look what you did! *shoots Skorpinok*
Skorpinok: Bwahahaha! *dodges*
Terrosaur: SLAG!!! *accidentally shoots the TV, which goes kaboom*
Everyone: Oh, no!
Waspinator: *who is now fixed* Uh-oh, Bird-Bot did a bad thing! *Everyone shoots him* Why Wazzzzpinator get blown up all the time?… *goes into stasis lock again*
Rhinox: *after an embarrassing moments of silence* Well... um, time for the regular Maximal-Predacon fight!
Optimus: OK, but before that there's something I really want to do.
Megatron: Primal is right, yeeesss.
*Optimus and Megatron shoot Terrosaur*
Optimus: Alright, now let's go outside and start fighting.
Everyone: OK!
Rattrap: We're all gonna die.
Everyone: Shut up, Rattrap!
