(Act 1: Preparations)
Cynder hissed in delight, landing in the junkyard. A large bag, almost like the body bags used to hold corpses, squirmed as a familiar False Dragon unwillingly truged on behind her, noticably beaten.
"LET ME GO YOU B*TCH! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT FROM ME!?" someone from inside the squirming bag screamed, though the sound was muffled. Cynder scowled, and gave a good punch to the person inside it, stating,
"Shut up before that giant mouth of yours gets you in a worse situation. If you think this is bad, whats keeping me from feeding you to my little pets?"
'Aside from the fact Master Armageddon will kill me if I do so, he still needs her alive.' Cynder added as an after thought. She didn't know what this worthless human could be used for, only that Armageddon needed her. She had been sent on a stealth mission to kidnap her, and was about to get away when Onyste caught up with her.
The battle was one-sided though, Cynder was many times more agile then the weighted-down False Dragon, and easily overcame her. So, she decided to take the false dragon with her as a little something extra for herself. Armageddon allowed her to do what she wanted to the giant lizard, as he had no use of Onyste.
"Hmhmhmhm... Now, to enact the plan my Master has laid down. Initiate assimilation protocal T4S2K6," the dragoness commanded. The division of Aparoids under her control silently obeyed, inserting the nanites into all the machines in the area, significantly shrinking the size of the junkyard. The machines, as if the had a will of their own, assembled in the center of the junkyard, melding themselves together into a mass. This mass quickly took shape, lifting itself up on two legs before forming two arms.
The behemoth machine had no definable head, instead its eye where atop its chest, glaring menacingly. Everything about it was large and bulky. Its arms were thick, and reached the ground with the hands dragging behind. The same was true for its legs, which helped it stand at 50 meters tall, essentially putting it at 'Kaiju' status.
"And now with the Aparoid Golem formed..." Cynder passed to chuckle darkly, "...This planet it doomed."

"Whoa. That big, even for Grimlock." A certain Dinobot commented from nearby.
A few dozen aparoids were suddenly incinerated by a bright orange blast of energy, which swept over a group of them like a wave over a beach. Grimlock emerged from behind one of the remaining junkpiles, blasting away at the parasite menace. He growled, swatting away a group of mortar aparoids as they prepared to shoot him, and he followed up by stomping on a few tanks.
((And now for an old classic!))
On the opposite side of the junkyard, a massive number of aparoids were suddenly vaporized in a burst of green energy. A single, emotionless eye pierced through the smoke, followed by a mechanical cackle.
"NO ONE is assimilating me today, or EVER!"
A large purple robot stomped out of the smoke, spotting the kaiju-sized aparoid.
"damn." He stated.
He then locked onto one of its feet, and raised his cannon-arm. The panels on its sides opened as it drew in energy, then released it in a large blast that punched a hole through the Golem's left ankle.

The Golem groaned, shifting. It turned to the direction the attack had come from, and waited.
"Go and destroy whoever it is." Cynder growled, turning towards Grimlock, "All forces, coordinate firepower in waves from all directions. Randomize as much as possible," the dragoness ordered, flying out from the group and a short distance away, hovering outside of the Junkyard's limits.
Mortar aparoids assembled behind and to the left of Grimlock, unleashing their firepower on the Dinobot. As the robot got ready to swipe them with his tail, beetle Aparoids bombarded the Dinobot's head. Grimlock seemed to growl in anger as mini-tank Aparoids angled their machine guns up from another flank and opened fire on Girmlock.
Meanwhile, the Aparoid Golem roared, lumbering towards the other robot, with a squadron of beetle and carrier Aparoids providing cover. A few soldier aparoids ran up to the Golem, before jumping and latching onto the damaged ankle. Their features fade as their bodies melted to fit into the cracks and wholes, effectively repairing the Aparoid Golem.
As the Aparoid Golem lumbered forth, its eyes flashed, launching paper-thin sheets of energy that slammed into the purple robot, throwing him back. The Golem roared in superiority before marching close enough to stomp on the downed robot.

Shockwave merely laughed again as he shouted,
"Thanks for falling for it, dipsh*t!"
He pulled his cannon-arm up and fired another large blast of energy straight into the Golem's raised foot, nearly ripping its leg in half as it erupted from the aparoid's shoulder, then dissapated. Shockwave tumbled out of the way, stomping on a few aparoids as he unloaded with his wrist-mounted pulse blasters, taking out some of the aerial aparoids. He glanced over at Cynder with his binocular mode of vision, and growled lowly,
"Where do ya think you're going?"
His eye glowed, then unleashed a thin beam of blinding yellow energy that travaled the length of the junkyard, and ripped through one of Cynder's wings, causing the wing-skin to ignite from the sheer heat. He turned back to the Golem and prepared himself for another attack.
Grimlock roared as he bent low and spun in a circle, sweeping the area with his tail and knocking out the bothersome aparoids nearby before firing his oral beam again, knocking out a chunk of the flyers. He stomped on an incoming battalion of soldier aparoids before smashing his head into a bomber aparoid, smashing it into pieces.

The Golem stumbled back, but once more, lesser aparoids latched onto the wound parts of the golem, melding with it to repair its wounds. More arieal aparoids seemed to be entering from the atmosphere, resupplying troops to Cynder's quickly dwindling army.
Speaking of the dragoness, she did not reel in pain from her burning wing. She even shrugged uncaringly, landing to smother the flames on the ground. Cynder took flight again, approaching Shockwave.
"Is that all you have? A little heat? Such a dissapointment. An advanced robot such as yourself should have more then just heat based weaponry," Cynder hissed as the Golem swung his arm, smashing into Shockwave and throwing the robot a good thirty feet away.
The Golem roared again, firing the sheets of laser energy, this time focusing them that the started to cut into Shockwave's armor. Cynder grinned, then lended a hand by launching her Inferno Breath on Shockwave, starting to melt the outermost layer of Shockwave's armor.
Meanwhile, the other aparoids were following Cynder's orders, repeating their previous attacks from different flanks, and staying back enough that they wouldn't get totaled by the Dinobot's tail.

And that's when Cynder noticed her flames were being forced from her maw. The smoke cleared, and Shockwave's chest had opened, drawing the sheets of energy and streams of flame into a glowing green sphere, his eye glowing brighter.
"Actually, my eye-ray is the only heat-based weapon I have. My cannon uses particles of kinetically-charged plasma, while my pulse blasters just use plasma. Speaking of energy, thanks for the boost, bitch."
He swung forward and clawed Cynder across the face before firing several shots from his pulse blasters into her abdomen, then swung around and bashed her in the skull with his cannon-arm. He turned to the Golem and his cannon-arm charged as Shockwave hovered into the air, transforming into... something. The bot then accelerated as he took the form of what appeared to be a satellite, firing off another particle-blast dead into the Golem's eye as he vanished from sight. As soon as he reached the edge of the atmosphere, he deployed solar panels and shifted himself, the sun's rays hitting him full-force.
"Oh yeah... orbital target-practice." He cackled.
Back on Earth, Grimlock was having some trouble. Sure, his metal casing deflected most of the aparoid's shots, but not enough of them. He roared and fired his oral ray at the tanks unloading on him before shifting it into the air, taking out some of the aircraft that dropped off more aparoids.
"Grimlock-not-doing-good." He muttered.

"Feh....I knew you would need some help" A certain human mutters to Grimlock and walks besides him. He stands infront of the DinoBot and looks at the rows of Aparoids.
"Yo...fuglies...." the human yells, "I think its time for you to get your ugly motha F****ing asses out of here. I'm already pissed off now. You just added some more stress to my day." He pulls out his sword and aims it a a group of Aparoids. "Time for you to die."
The human appears behind a small group of Aparoids and the beasts egnite with blood. The human turns to another group of Aparoids and smirks. "This will be fun..." he scoffs.
He rockets forwards and hacks a whole bunch of Aparoids down. One of the monsters appears behind him and he takes a gauntlet that looks like a skull with blades on it and slices the beast in half.

Cynder growled, despising being taken advantage of by anyone except her master. She shook it off, flying over the Golem and grasping it. Beetle Aparoids come to help lift the Golem, and together the behemoth's feet leave the ground, flying towards Grimlock and the new warrior.
As they reach the two of them, Cynder lets go while the beetle aparoids meld to the Golem, repairing it. As it falls, the Golem slams a clenched fist into both the Dinobot and the human, shoving them into the ground. The Golem pulled its fists away, revealing the two of them being imprinted into the ground.
Cynder hovered as the Golem roared, lifting its hands high into the air. it then grabs Grimlock by his neck, hauling the Dinobot out of the hole. Grimlock's face is then repeatedly punched in by the Golem, before being tossed away carelessly. The Golem then moves to crush the human underfoot.

The human clenches his teeth in pain. "Grr...You-re...really PISSING ME OFF!!" He lifts Golm's foot up and moves out from under it.
He appears behind the Golm and yells "Dunkelheit Shards!!" the gauntlet on the humans' arm glows and the blades break off. They go straight through the Golm's body.
Blood flies into the air and the human lands on the ground. "Hmph...." the human grunts. He walks over to Grimlock and glares. A Tyranno...like me... he thinks. The human lifts Grimlock to his feet. "Alright, Tyranno....you might need another Dino to help you..." The human growls. "So, I thought I might help..." The human's body then glows with energy. "COVER ME!! I NEED TO GATHER MY RIATSU!!"

Grimlock nodded, not understanding what he was talking about. He glared at the Golem and fired off his oral blast repeatedly, hitting it in the eye before charging forward at top speed and ramming his bulk into the construct's shin, then whipped around and slammed his tail into its ankle before biting a chunk out and spitting it to the side.
He backed up and fired a blast at Cynder, just because he didn't trust her. He glared at the machine, then transformed into his robot form and took to the air. His sword appeared in his hand as he latched onto the Golem and started stabbing it in the eye repeatedly, occasionally stomping on it.
"You done yet? Me not able to do this forever!" Grimlock yelled.
*****
Meanwhile, from orbit, Shockwave was now a birght golden light, even brighter at the end of his cannon. He cackled maniacally as he prepared to fire...
"And the best part is, the only ones who know where I am is that stupid dragon, thanks to thse jamming signals!"

Grimlock felt his leg being gripped just before the Golem tugged him off just as he pulled out his sword for another strike. It smashed him against the ground twice, before slamming him into Kaosu.
Cynder shook the stars from her head after getting struck by the Oral Ray, deciding to lay low, she digged a tunnel into the ground, hiding herself.
-------------------------------------------------
In orbit, Shockwave was struck by three magic flares.
"Wrong. You can't hide from me, robot." Armageddon, in Bankai state, snarled. "Plus, I'm sure you have a hard time absorbing magic." the demon remarked, firing off five more flares. He was standing because he manipulated the air to form a sort of platform for himself, and he didn't really need to breathe, so lack of oxygen won't be a problem.

((Ah ha!! You figured him out Azure....>.>))
Kaosu stood up and dusted himself off. He feels the Riatsu in his body flare up. "Hmph...ITS TIME!! RESURRECTION!!" He roars. Kaosu's body is engulfed in black flames with a red outline.
Inside of the flames, two eyes and a toothy mouth can be seen. The face smiles evily and then roars. The flames then burst appart and reveal a gigantic Tyrannosaurus Rex. It growls in anger and a fog exits his mouth.
"TIRANO DESATRANCADO!!!
Tirano roars at the golm and charges at him. He grabs the golm by the arm in his jaws and actually lifts the beast off the ground. Tirano swings the Golm around then tosses him into a group of Apariods, crushing them.
"ALRIGHT!! SHOWTIME!!"

Grimlock stood up and brushed himself off, sparking in a few places.
"Big bug-bot jerk." He muttered.
He looked at Kaosu and 'blinked', then returned to the fight by whipping out his blaster and firing a rocket at the Golem's eye, followed by a barrage of energy blasts into the damaged structure before any aparoids could repair it. He 'punted' a mortar aparoid away before charging forward and slamming his blade into the already damaged eye socket, batting away any aparoids trying to repair it.
((All aparoid bosses had weakpoints! I'm just guessing!))

(OOC: And you guessed correctly. If the Golem doesn't regenerate after a few more attacks, it could very well collaspe.)
The Golem was damaged, but its lack of a nervous system prevented it from crying out in pain.
The ground quaked, and three 'capsules' erupted from the ground. They were mechanical, but the held the clear hint of infection. The three capsules then sprouted two legs each, hauling themselves the rest of the way out of the ground before angling themselves horizontally, the ends opening up into four-jawed mouths.
(OOC: Shive, you should know what these things are.)
As the Golem rose, it batted away Grimlock. Two of the Capsule aparoids jumped, landing on the Golem's shoulders. They began to fuse with the Golem, but the didn't lose their features, meaning this wouldn't heal the Golem. After a few seconds, the Golem had 'upgraded' with a pair of shoulder cannons.
(OOC: 'Course, now you've got to hit the capslues' weak points too to finish off the Golem.)
The twin cannons opened, firing a pair of CPC-level beams, one at Grimlock, the other at Kaosu. As the beams ended, the cannons then spewed out ready orbs with clear 'wings.' These orbs floated over to Kaosu and attached to his hide, before exploding with the force of hand grenades.
The Golem roared as the remaining Capsule aparoid fired a weaker beam from its 'maw' at Grimlock. And from her hiding spot, Cynder chuckled.
"They don't know that the Golem can keep adding onto itself to increase its durability!"

((I think I can manage... *evil grin*))
Grimlock roared as he brandished his blaster, firing a rocket into one of the cannons as it opened. It flashed red as explosions erupted from the inside, and Grimlock mentally grinned.
"Me find weak point! Whoo!"
He rushed forward and slammed his fist into the Golem's leg, using it to crawl up it, occasionally stabbing it with his blade. He finally reached the left cannon and pried the end open, firing into it with his blaser and using his other arm to keep the 'mouth' open. He fired off a few more shots until the things exploded, knocking him back down to the ground. He threw his arms in the air and took to the skies, firing off blaster shots like no tommorow.
*****
Back in orbit, Shockwave merely replied,
"Probably true. But I'm not here for you."
He shifted to his original position, and the prongs at the end of the cannon spread apart. A final flash of light erupted from the end, and Shockwave fired a massive blast of yellow-green energy, after locking onto the Golem's location...
"My job's done." Shockwave muttered.
He folded his wings in and plummeted back to Earth, following the beam.
((Beam will hit in my next post))
