[b]Sometime later in a secret cave complex that may or may not have previously existed:[/b]

"Well thank Primus we managed to timeskip away from the Titans and set up our base otherwise I'm not sure today would have ended." Brainwave says while plugging in the last of the computer systems. "Stealth Field online, at last. Now we can get to work."

"Don't you think you should have warned Rastun communication with his people may not be possible?"

"Eh, let him figure it out the hard way. I'm not here to hold his hand. I'm sure once he does he'll contact us. Now let's see how far the nanites I left behind have wormed their way into the Titans systems. Alright, some tech has managed to infect the bases main computer. Time to see what we have he... well that sounds kinda excessive but I can't say I'll miss him"

Megatron's curiosity piqued by Brainwave's comment. "Oh, I assume something interesting has happened while we were busy doing other things."

"Yes..." Laughing slightly as he continued "That idiot that attacked us at the exit of the city... someone dropped, they dropped a mountain on him!"

"HAHAHAHAHA, that's the most hilarious thing I've heard in ages! I want whoever did that to be my new Rampage, yes!"

Stopping for a moment Brainwave looked to Megatron with a questioning look. "You want a replacement for you psycho pet crab? Yeah, that's not happening." Turning back to the computer he delved deeper into the Titans records. Discovering how the Earth Federation and Zeon ran into the Autobots and Decepticons in the middle of their war and all parties picked their sides and continued the war as usual. Eventually the Earth Federation and Autobots won but after the war ended terrorist cells of Zeon and Decepticon remnants dropped a space colony on Earth prompting the creation of the Titans who quickly turned into barbaric overlords in the name of keeping the peace. It got so bad members from all factions, unofficially of course, joined together to fight the monstrous tactics of the Titans which seems kinda hypocritical of the Decepticons involved because they'd gladly be doing the same if the situation was reversed.

It was immediately obvious to Brainwave the groups formed to fight the Titans, the AUEG and Karaba, were the best bet to keep the Titans distracted so they could do their jobs. There was only one problem with that plan... "So I feel the need to ask you what your intentions are with the Decepticons trapped in these anomalies?"

Giving Brainwave an ominous glace and smirking Megatron replies "You'll just have to wait and see won't you?"

"You know, maybe someday the rest of you primitives will realize cooperation will yield much greater results than war does."

"Well why don't you go tell the Maximals that?" 

Brainwave laughed the suggestion off. "Oh come now, it should be obvious I don't agree with the politics in your universe. On either side. For us Autobots and Decepticons stand as equals as it should be. But it's not our place to force enlightenment on your people. However if you were really shrewd you'd use what I said to your advantage. In the end what I think of these silly little wars you all manage to have isn't important. Only stopping Unicron is and I will work with whoever helps get that done. Can you say the same?"

Reflecting on what the Transtech was saying Megatron was begrudging force to agree. The wars of the past don't matter right now because if Unicron isn't stopped everything will be destroyed. "I'll go along with you on this until Unicron is stopped. After that I make no promises."

"Good, now we can begin to undermine the Titans. I'm sure you'll enjoy this part. After all these sorts of situations are why I brought you along."

The excitement on Megatron's face would be obvious to anyone. "Exactly how far are you willing to let me go on this?"

"I have no issues making sacrifices when the situations calls for them. Mindless brutality on the other hand is stupid. I'll come up with the new weapons for them, you come up with your "special" battle plans. Avoid civilian casualties though. We don't need more people coming after us."

Megatron was barely able to contain his laughter. "This will be more fun than steamrolling those idiots." 

If the Titans were annoyed with their first encounter with the duo they were soon going to hate them. But ultimately this was a problem they brought on themselves for a multitude of reasons. And so the plotting began in earnest and soon the war would escalate.
