Week 2 The Transfoamers vs Beckerman's Backyardigan's: Beeyatches

The Transfoamers Are: Goldfinger, Movie Jolt, Movie Sideswipe, The Fallen, and Transformers 1,2,3,4, and 5.

The Backyardigans Are: Black Widow Shark, Sharkticons #3 and #8, Abe Sapien, Mer-Man, Skrull #15, Belle, SkullCruncher & Grax.


20.000 feet above sea level.

Goldfinger wonders aloud,
free falling high above the ocean his words are ripped from the air before reaching the ears of anyone, "Did we really need to do a HALO Jump into battle today? I mean... it sounded cool at the time, but now I'm not so sure, these robots don't look very seaworthy..."

Transformers 1 through 5 are all hoping they have the correct programming for a sea battle.

10,000 feet above sea level.

The Fallen is trying to remember what HALO stood for again.. He thinks it's High Altitude Low Opening but he's not positive... And how "low" exactly was goldfinger talking when they thought of this.

5.000 feet above sea level.


Sideswipe and Jolt begin to worry. Especially Jolt.

2500 feet above sea level.

Transformer #1 begins to transform. two through five follow suit.

2000 feet above sea level.

Transformer 1 has turned into a sizable Pontoon Boat as he looks for Goldfinger but can not find him. Just before he begins to panic Goldfinger falls into view and boards the boat.

Transformer 1 wonders where Goldfinger's parachute is... he guesses that goldfinger had planned to ride him down all along.

1900 feet above sea level.

Transformer 2 has turned into a golf cart. #3 has turned into a Rascal Electric Mobility scooter. and #4 has turned into a John Deer tractor. #5 has turned into a 1971 ford pinto.

1000 Feet above sea level.

The team opens their chutes. The harnesses hold. Except for one. The Fallen lives up to his name and smacks the water hard, plummetting directly into the ocean and sinking rapidly.

Touchdown.

Goldfinger and the pontoon boat float gracefully to a safe water landing. Sideswipe realizes he is far too dense to swim in the ocean moments before he lands. He transforms into his vehicle form... Unfortunately sideswipe has never been suited for either the air or the water... he looks awesome as a Lamborghini Murcielago even if it is filling rapidly with sea-water.

It's a good thing he doesn't need to breathe.

Transformer #5 hits the water bumper first. Immediately exploding on contact with the water. Even a robotic Ford Pinto is unsafe at any speed.

100 feet below sea level.

The Backyardigans lay in wait.

Most of them spend the majority of their time under water so survival is not an issue. Belle and Abe Sapien are both treading water at the surface watching the ill fated Transfoamers hit the water one by one.

"Ah Crap" says Abe grabbing belle and trying to swim away quickly. They manage to avoid Jolt hitting them when he lands, unfortunately Jolt is an Electric Car...

The water causes him to short circuit which kills Belle instantly and Severely injures Abe who is a little more resilient than your average human. The shock also nukes transformers 2-4 disabling their electronics and causing them to float to the sea floor where the sharkticons feed on them greedily. Jolt is also completely helpless when the sharkticons turn their attentions to him.

12001 feet below sea level.

The Fallen touches down on the sea floor, thinking that he will quickly launch an attack on the Backyardigans from below. However Mer-Man has other ideas. Mer-man has enlisted the help of several near by Giant Squid and they attack, Tearing the fallen limb from limb. The sharkticons will eat well today.

During his descent Sideswipe gets the drop on Mer-Man as he is pre-occupied watching the sharkticons play with their food... His rear tire catches Mer-Man's head and he guns the engine, sucking merman's finned cranium into the wheel well and snapping his neck.

Hearing Mer-Man's gargling screams, The Sharkticons abandon their meal and turn their attention towards sideswipe. They make quick work of him, Tearing off his doors first, and then his tires one by one.

Back to Sea Level.

Abe Sapien has regained consciousness, He awakes just in time to stop Black Widow Shark and Skullcruncher who were preparing to attack the pontoon boat transformer from under the water.

"Wait" he motioned to them. They both looked confused and Abe responded with another hand gesture and a look that simply said "Trust me."

The Pontoon boat was beginning to panic again.
"Goldfinger, what are we going to do?!" he said.

"Well," replied Goldfinger, who was fiddling with a device with a timer. His chin ridges were beginning to show... "I'd suggest making peace with robot jesus, or whoever you robots pray to.."

"The Pontoon boat began to change back into a robot to fight the Skrull imposter who had replaced Goldfinger during their descent. But he had already taken off, riding away on the backs of the two sharkticons as if they were water skis.

"So long Sucker!" Shouted the now fully transformed Skrull.. Transformer #1 still can't believe what's happening when the lifeless body of Goldfinger floats to the surface his parachute undeployed. The skrull explosive turns the poor transformer into pieces that not even the sharkticons will bother eating.

Beckerman's Backyardigans: Beeyatches are Victorious!
The Backyardigans have lost Mer-Man and Belle.
The entire Transfoamers team now resides in Davy Jones' Locker.

Edit: There was a missing passage in the original draft regarding the fate of transformer #5... it has now been added in.

Nice match Goof, nothing like starting robots that are not Sharkitcons in the water.
