"Impossible! A form like mine! A dragon no less! This is... impossible! I can't comprehend it well enough..." Predaking stuttered out of shock. "Primal is right... they will need to finish the Beast Wars as quickly as possible. Omega Scion! If you please!"

"Very well... in three...two... one..."

Everyone kept their traps shut for the next viewing.

Somewhere far in the universe, two unknown alien entities converge and convene amongst themselves, where they both held Tigatron and Airazor afloat and in stasis, yet their Sparks are out of their bodies.

"That's Tigatron and Airazor!" Warpath pointed out.

"And it looks like those things have them in some kind of stasis lock...with their Sparks out of their bodies." Ironhide pointed out.

"What are they going to do with them?" Elita asked.

"That, Elita, is not for us to debate. Let us watch closely." Prime said.

"There has been a serious disruption in the time flow. Location: nexus Earth."

"Impossible. That nexus is closed, the experiment has been terminated."

"The nexus is gone, but the danger still exists."

"If we are to restore the damage to the time flow, we must send a new agent."

The aliens turn to the inert bodies of both Tigatron and Airazor, but before the audience can find out, a flash gleams over their optics.

The audience shielded their optics, confused.

"That aside, the whole nexus thing they talked about proves they're the aliens behind that probe, the floating island, that doomsday weapon that nearly torched the Earth, the alien plant thing that turned to a ship, all involved in the Beast Wars. Yet still, we still don't know who are they called!" Ratchet recounted.

"That is correct: We've known their technologies far beyond ours, yet we do not know their identities. But since they have said that they will send an agent to deal with the 'time flow', presumably Megatron, it may involve Tigatron and Airazor... or someone else." Prime replied.

"Well, whatever it is, it's likely to punish the Predacons for using  their tech just to get the advantage over the Maximals yet we have all seen how that went by." Ultra Magnus added.

"Enough debating. Let's just watch this." Megatron cuts off.

Aboard the Darksyde, Megatron bangs the gavel multiple times. "Let the trial commence!" he barked.

The younglings of the audience laughed, chuckled and snickered at the sight of the future Megatron wearing a wig.

"Wh-what the heck is that thing on his head?! It looks ridiculous!" Smokescreen laughed.

"I know, right?! It's weird!" Bumblebee laughed.

"If I do recall, human judges wear those things while on trial." Knockout laughed as well.

"Boy, I bet Pred-Megs is CERTAINLY lacking in the hair department." Most of the audience, mostly Ratchet, laughed at Cliffjumper's joke.

Quickstrike laid before in restraints, now under custody for his collaboration with Tarantulas.

"Waspinator will speak for the defense." Megatron pointed to Waspinator.

"If I do recall, cowpoke bug there teamed up with Tarantulas into turning on the future Megatron." Barricade pointed out.

"I'd like to see how'd he'd hee-hawwed outta this." Breakdown commented.

"Waspinator likes defense." he gleefully spouted. "A little more defense and maybe Waspinator not get blown up all the time."

"Looks like this is my last round-up." Quickstrike muttered.

"Two-head throw Megatron into lava pit. Megatron angry, think Two-head traitor, want to slag Two-head. Waspinator down with that!" he pointed out obviously.

"Why, my descendant should promote you to the office of the obvious, because you've recalled exactly what happened that made him into this!" Megatron commented.

"Defense take a rest." Megatron dismissed. "Ahh, brilliant as always, yes." then he turned to his minions "Predacons, your verdict?"

Both Rampage and Dinobot, the bots who were holding Quickstrike to ensure he did not flee, aimed their hand cannons at him, terrifying the Fuzor.

"Anything to say before sentence is carried out?" Megatron spat out threateningly.

"I... I know I done you wrong, boss." Quickstrike admitted. "Gimme another chance. I... I swear I'll make it up to ya!"

"And why would he do that?" Brawl asked.

"Quickstrike's a fool, but like Scorponok, he certainly does follow whoever he thinks is the better bot." Vortex clarified.

"Who are you and what have you done with the real Vortex?" asked Swindle.

"Back off Swindle! I just need to adjust to what's going on." he defended.

"We're gonna need more of that of you, Vortex." Onslaught commented.

"Very well." Megatron then interrogated. "Tell me why Tarantulas tried to destroy the Ark."

"I... I plain don't know!" Quickstrike replied.

"You have been Tarantulas' accomplice and yet you do not know his true plan?" Skyquake questioned.

"Seems Tarantulas doesn't trust him enough to let him know what he really intended to do with the Ark." Dreadwing added.

"But I do know that dang spider double-crossed both of us." Quickstrike offered "I... I'd be happy to track him down for ya... and... and kick his keister!"

"'Dang spider'..." Megatron spat out with venom, especially in regards to Tarantulas' betrayal. He then replied to Quickstrike "I applaud your good intentions. But we are through being lenient with traitors!"

"As do all who betray the Renegatrons!" Starscream smirked.

"YES! Execute that traitor for casting the demi-god to the fiery chasm!" Thunderblast shouted.

Before long, the Darksyde's computer alerted [Priority alert. Priority alert.]

"Hold your fire!" Megatron ordered, prompting Rampage and Dinobot to stand down.

[Alien signal detected: approaching planet.]

"The aliens return to Earth? What could they do next, may I wonder?" Shockwave asked.

"Their agent, perhaps. That signal must be the arrival of their new minion." Skyquake answered.

Meanwhile, Tarantulas cursed in his lair "Blast Megatron! He's ruined my plans! And those of the Tripredacus Council as well!"

[Alert. Alien energy signature detected vector 9-3-7.]

"So, those meddling aliens return. How fortunate." Tarantulas saracastically commented.

[Impact with base in 4 cycles.]

"Battle stations!"

"Hehehe, the aliens have returned to punish the Predacons for using technologies without their permission and tampering with the timeline where we have come. Not to mention, he has my Spark as well." Megatron pointed out bitterly.

The Predacons scrambled to their posts, but Inferno asks "What of the traitor, Royalty?

"I have decided to spare him. For now." Megatron declares, releasing Quickstrike from his restraints.

"Thanks, boss! Ya won't be sorry!" Quickstrike gratefully said.

"Yes, well, if I am... you will be sorri-er." Megatron replied mocking Quickstrike's accent then ordered "Now get to your post!"

They complied.

"I'm sure he wouldn't be much sorrier than that." Knockout quipped.

"Nooo, he wouldn't." Megatron quipped.

Elsewhere, the Maximals catch wind of the alien signature en route to Earth.

"Well, if it's not a comet, what is it?" Rattrap asked.

"Something I thought we'd never see again." Rhinox then opened his communications "Rhinox to Optimus."

"Wait, that alien signature is heading to the Darksyde. Megatron must have stirred up much trouble to earn the ire of these aliens." 

"Given what we've seen, Perceptor, that's not a surprise." Bumblebee said.

Back to the Darksyde...

[Impact with base in 1.4 cycles.]

"All guns, open fire!" Megatron ordered, as every of the Darksyde's defenses immediately fire at the alien presence, but it did nothing to halt the alien's arrival.

"These aliens sure did build their tech to last better than we Cybertronians could." Ironhide pointed out.

"Our fire is having no effect!" Dinobot notified, but the Predacons began to witness their systems under heavy disruption.

[Alien radiation: discharging. All primary circuits affected. External shields: failing.]

"So not only is it immune to gunfire, but it can elicit radiations that can disrupt even high-tech systems by absorbing the power that sustains the systems, similar to what the humans call a electromagnetic pulse. Intriguing." Knockout commented.

"NO! Not now!" Megatron cursed.

The Darksyde's perimeter defenses felt the power of the alien radiation and eventually shut down due to loss of power.

"With the alien presence underway, they are certain to lose the Darksyde." Bulkhead pointed out obviously.

Without anything else the Predacons have to stop the comet, the latter begins descent to Earth undisputed.

"Royalty! It will destroy the colony!" Inferno notified.

"Oh, Megatron, what should we do? What should we do?" Waspinator asked panickingly.

"For your incessant whining, Waspinator, your orders are to remain in the base and hope the alien agent show you mercy." Megatron ordered sarcastically.

"Abandon base. Abandon base!" Megatron begrudginly ordered, as he and his minions evacuated from the Darksyde just as the comet then crashes down on the Darksyde, obliterating the Predacon ship to a smoking crater.

The audience looked in deep shock. Was that the aliens could do?

"Hold a minute, you! The future Megatron had issued an order evacuation. The Beast Wars may not end entirely just because the Predacons have lost their base!" Predaking interrupted.

"But it doesn't mean that Tigatron and Airazor have returned to Earth.... could be someone else." Ultra Magnus pointed out.

"Hold the conclusions, Autobots. We haven't seen this alien agent yet." Prime mediated.

The Maximals bore witness to the event of the destruction of the Predacons base.

"Looks like the Beast Wars are over...for the Preds!" Rattrap cheered in celebration, yet his comrades were not returning the favor "Hey, what's wrong with you bots? We should be celebrating! That flaming hunk of space junk just solved all of our problems!"

"Little too early to celebrate, vermin." Knockout commented.

"Not for you, or for the Maximals, grand-nephew." Arcee stated. "But it must be for the aliens."

"That's no comet. It's power reading are off the scale. And they're alien." Rhinox assessed via analysis.

"They're back. Just like Tarantulas always said they'd be." Blackarachnia said grimly.

Meanwhile, the Predacons look in shock and despair at the loss of their base, having barely escaped the explosion that saw them survive in the ruins of the Darksyde.

"THE COLONY!" Inferno yelled in horror.

Up above seems to be a white and purple figure reassembling a bit of Silverbolt, but made differently. What distinguished him is the fact that he had wings similar to Airazor's and a feline helmeted face much like Tigatron. On his left a shoulder pad similar to Tigatron's Beast Form and on his shoulders decorated with Airazor's talons. He flew menacingly towards the Predacons, where he speaks "I am Tigerhawk, emissary of the Vok." upon identifying Megatron.

"No...." Air Raid despaired.

"It's not Tigatron and Airazor... it's a fusion of both of them combined!" Bumblebee said.

"The Vok... now we know the identities of these aliens." said Prime. "They, who experiment with Earth eons before the human race sees it's evolution..."

"Tigerhawk... now that's a cool name." Cliffjumper smirked.

"Your form's changed, but I know you Megatron. The Vok charge you with the willful disruption of time and space. Surrender to me, immediately. Violence will not be tolerated." Tigerhawk demanded.

"Megatrons do not surrender. We conquer. Predacons, attack!"

The incensed Predacons immediately fire at Tigerhawk.

"Bad idea Pred-Megs. You don't know who you're messing with." Jazz stated.

Tigerhawk shielded himself from the gunfire and retaliated by raising energies from the sky, creating a tornado that catches Waspinator, Quickstrike and Inferno in it's raging vortex.

"At least this time Waspinator has company!" he moaned.

Now their face was of awe...

"Holy Primus!" Bulkhead jaw-dropped.

"No scrap, Bulkhead." Wheeljack agreed.

"The Vok must have granted Tigerhawk enormous powers we thought were only possible in fictions. We were wrong... the power they wield is enormous, cosmic. It-it may even rival Unicron!" Ratchet stuttered.

"Definitely, but I fear that may not be all what Tigerhawk can do, old friend." Prime added.

Tigatron unfurled a rocket launcher from his right arm and fired, eliminating Rampage and Dinobot as well in a huge explosion.

"It's power is awesome." Megatron admitted bitterly.

The Maximals witnessed Tigerhawk easily dispatching the Predacons like insects.

"Man, oh man! Whatever he is, he's making circuit salad out of the Preds!" Rattrap commented. "So now can we par-tay?" he requested as he prepared his gun.

"Could they now? They brought party favors!" stated Cliffjumper.

"On the bright side, Tigerhawk is Maximal, he has the Maximal symbol in his chest. Yet the Vok control him, so he may not recognize his comrades at first." Ultra Magnus stated.

Primal commanded "Rhinox, call Cheetor at his coordinates and tell him NOT to engage until I get there."

The Maximals looked at Primal in confusion as Rhinox prepared to hail Cheetor.

"I just hope I'm in time."

"Wait a moment... Am... am I missin' the interface here?! You're jumping in to HELP Mega-jerk?!" Rattrap asked.

"Oddly enough that does make sense. Since the future Megatron has our Megatron's Spark, destroying him outright will be the same time storm that nearly wiped the Maximals out. The Vok are making a mistake." Perceptor pointed out.

"Megatron is carrying the spark of the original Megatron." Primal said. "If he's destroyed there'll be a time storm which could wipe out Cybertron as we know it."

"And when that flying tabby finishes with my old pals, where do you think he's coming next?" Blackarachnia asks.

"Just when things are finally looking up..." Rattrap groused, realizing that Tigerhawk may not be at their side at all "We're all gonna die."

"Because the Vok has effectively controlled Tigerhawk, he may not be able to recognize the Maximals at large. They are likely to blame for this for destroying their technology, so when he's done with the Predacons, Tigerhawk will likely punish the Maximals as well." Ratchet commented.

"Primus give the Vok mercy..." muttered Sideswipe.

"Wait, does that mean Tigerhawk is sent to destroy Megatron?!" asked Barricade.

"That'll be the same event that killed Optimus Prime, as his descendant stated." Shockwave pointed out.

"Megatron, I give you a final chance. Surrender, or be terminated." Tigerhawk demanded.

"I give you... No chance at all!" Megatron refused and transformed, breathing fire at Tigerhawk, but the latter dodged the breathing cone of flames as he transformed as well, engaging in a aerial wrestling match with the Predacon lord.

Cheetor quickly arrived to the scene, wondering "Gallopin' galaxies, what's going on?"

"Something you have no part on." said a familiar voice.

"Look out, Cheetor!" Warpath yelled.

Tarantulas eventually sprang out from cover and fired a cyber-web at Cheetor, knocking him out.

"Tartantulas... of course he may want to exploit the Vok's cosmic powers for himself." muttered Jetfire.

"That depends what's he planning for Tigerhawk, Jet." Silverbolt pointed out.

After biting each other, Megatron kicks Tigerhawk off him.

"Let the power of the Vok end this!" Tigerhawk called.

"This is my world now. You have no place in it!" Megatron taunted as he charged towards Tigerhawk, yet the latter circumvented his charging approach by flying around and over him and unleashed his built in miniguns at Megatron in a raging salvo of gunfire, eliminating the Predacon lord temporarily.

"HAHAHAHA! ALWAYS GO FOR THE KA-BLAM TO BEAT THE CONS!" Warpath complimented.

"So much for the mighty Megatron." Tarantulas sneered. "Now it's my..." just as he prepared a bug, he hears then sees Primal flying overhead "Optimus..." he cackled "This should prove interesting."

"Interesting much, yet I don't think Tigerhawk would be much lenient to judgement upon the Maximals. Unlike the Predacons." stated Onslaught.

"That's quite farfetched, Onslaught. The birdie-cat just swept the future Predacons like cyber-bugs." pointed out Breakdown.

"Let's just see what the Vok may speak of the Maximals themselves." Shockwave interrupted.

"I am Optimus Primal, leader of the Maximals. I mean you no harm." Primal introduced himself to Tigerhawk upon arriving on the same level as his.

"The Vok know you well, Optimus Primal." Tigerhawk replied firmly. "We'll speak when my primary programming is completed."

"I cannot let you destroy Megatron!" Primal interrupted.

"His disruption of time and space must end before the damage grows greater." Tigerhawk affirmed.

"Destroy him, and you'll only make things worse!"

"Interference will not be tolerated." Tigerhawk then raised lightning on the ground between him and Primal to keep him away for further interloping between him and his mission. It sent Primal falling to the chasm.

Prime gasped.

"Did he just sent Primal to the lava?!" Arcee asked.

"Likely for getting in his way, Arcee." Cliffjumper replied.

"A curious species." Tigerhawk muttered. Just as he was about to finish Megatron off, Tarantulas' bugs latch upon him where they deliver many electric shocks, weakening the Vok agent.

"Now, you're mine!" Tarantulas converged upon the out cold Tigerhawk.

Starscream wondered. "Hmmm, he proves too powerful to be reasoned or dissuaded. Perhaps Tarantulas has an ulterior motive for wanting him..."

That frightened the Renegatrons and the Autobots.

"Whatever you mean by that, Starscream..." Predaking snarled. "...it will not end well for either the Maximals and the fools that make a mockery of the Predacon name."

Cheetor awakened as the cyber-web passes, but two Sparks converge on his mind, sending him in an elucid state where he awakens in a vision.

"Where am I?" But he saw two Sparks reassembling his missing comrades. "Tigatron! Airazor! You're back!"

As they combine together, Cheetor protested "No, wait!" then he awakened from his vision "Must have been a... huh?" he gazed upon the light of the combined Sparks. "That's no dream!" he concluded, then he followed the light. Literally.

While Primal breaks out of the way of the ground he was buried under.

"It seems the Sparks of both Tigatron and Airazor has found it's way out of the clutches of the Vok. It's likely to guide Cheetor to presumably where Tigerhawk had been taken prisoner. To Tarantulas' lair."

"Knowing Tarantulas, he may have his personal
