The Journey into Vector Sigma Part 2

Leave a reply

Summary: The Decepticons embark upon a perilous journey into the core of Cybertron, determined to save their home planet from a great Reset – but will they succeed in stopping Thunderwing and the destructive menace that has been unleashed?

This is the second in a three-parter, Episodes 6 – 8 of the series Rise of the Decepticons. To avoid spoilers, please make sure that you have read Part 1 (Episode 6), FIRST!

Without giving anything away, this episode was difficult for me to write in some parts, but it does contain a lot of interesting battles and turn of events. Sentinel Prime was especially fun though because it seems that he is becoming a little wiser, a little more responsible, I feel. Of course, when the future of your home planet and the life of every mech on it is at stake, you have to do whatever you can to help prevent a catastrophe – even if it means working side-by-side with the Decepticons to help defeat a mutual enemy. Or two.

In this episode, the strength and courage of the Decepticons is tested to the limit. Megatron, Sentinel Prime, and the Decepticon seekers meet their match with an enemy that is far more powerful than any mech on Cybertron has ever encountered before. Megatron, in particular, is the only one with a chance to be able to defeat it, but will he prevail? You’ll have to read the story to find out.

I do enjoy Nacelle’s quirkiness and how this episode sets him up to become the very unlikely hero, but you will have to wait for Episode 8 to find out exactly how that all pans out.

The Journey into Vector Sigma Part 1

Leave a reply

Summary: When the Key to Vector Sigma is stolen by Thunderwing, the Decepticons set out on a mission to find him.

This is the first in a three-parter, Episodes 6 – 8 of the series Rise of the Decepticons. The title, The Journey into Vector Sigma, alludes to the events that will unfold in parts 2 and 3, but this first part is focused more on the adventures leading up to those events. This episode could have been titled The Key to Vector Sigma just as well.

Without giving too much away, the journey begins when Thunderwing steals the fabled Key from a museum in Iacon, leaving death and destruction in his wake. The story steadily picks up pace and hopefully by the end of part 1 has left the reader (you) wanting to continue reading on to part 2. There are several canonical references that have been reimagined for the Heroic Decepticons Universe, including a rebooting, if you will, of many G1 characters and their histories, from both the cartoon and the comics verse.

As with typical action/adventure, “made-for-TV” cartoon episodes, this one is no different – it contains fast-paced action, one-liners, drama, suspense, surprises, and big explosions, and is written specifically for a general audience.

Episode 6 introduces a slew of new characters that are mentioned for the first time in the Heroic Decepticons Universe including Thunderwing, as well as the insufferable Nacelle (who you can’t help but feel sorry for, the poor sap). It also sees the return of others including Optronix, Hot Rod and the cadets, and Alphia Trion. As a side story, this episode is a turning point for Optronix in particular, which (without giving away any spoilers) will become more important as time goes on.

Transformers: Heroes Chapter Summaries

Synopsis: A century ago, the eons-old war between the Autobots and the Decepticons suddenly and inexplicably came to an end. Since then, many have gone their separate ways, whilst others still hold onto the bitter memories of war. Now, as Autobots and Neutrals join forces in a new directive to capture every Decepticon still left alive, it appears that the Autobots will finally get their chance to even the score, and defeat their enemies once and for all. But when they become the target of seemingly random, yet terrifying attacks, some begin to realize that the enemy may be much closer to home than anyone could have ever imagined.

Inspired by, well, the axed Heroes, and also Lost. Not the story lines or characters (it’s not a Crossover) but in the way those shows are presented, with particular emphasis on suspense, action, drama, and the inclusion of character flash backs/back stories, all while revealing the final plot and final revelation bit by bit – and, not to mention, a huge cast (as in Lost)! I really enjoyed those shows so I thought I’d try my hand at a similar writing style for this Transformers story. So far, I think it’s working out pretty well.

It’s an ongoing saga, aimed at an adult audience. It is in-depth and complex (and long). It aims to explore the motivations and intricacies surrounding the ongoing conflict between the Autobots (and, more recently, the Alliance – a collaboration between Autobots and Neutrals) and the Decepticons. I may organize it later on into a number of Arcs, to make it easier to read or follow before it gets impossibly long.
