Synopsis
Prelude
In the year 2006 Generation 1 Rodimus Prime, Sky Lynx and Ultra Magnus return to Cybertron from the construction of the GM Fan on the planet Namotorp for Perceptor's new power reactor when they are attacked by the Decepticons Astrotrain, Cyclonus and Galvatron. They are all suddenly abducted by a strange beam.
Several hundred years later on Cybertron the Maximals are celebrating the defeat of Megatron with a firework show by Rattrap when Beast Machines Blackarachnia and Silverbolt are abducted by the same beam. In another time Animated Arcee is returning from a mission with the Omega Codes. She is communicating with Red Alert when she is abducted by the beam. Elsewhere Prime Knockout is abducted by the beam.
On the planet GoBitron Thrasher reports to Bikemurder that the power of the creatures they abducted has made transporting them to an exact spot impossible. Bikemurder orders her to have Sporks recover the "accursed knockoffs". Van Guardian appears with Roswell, Rodimus Prime, Ultra Magnus and Blackarachnia to confront Bikemurder about his plans.

Notes
- The GoBits are all clearly based on GoBots characters. Roswell is Path Finder. Van Guardian is Van Guard, Bikemurder is Cy-Kill and Thrasher is Crasher. Also mentioned is Sporks who is probably Spoons and Captain-1 who is probably Leader-1. Thrasher's body is inspired by the 2007 Transformers film toy Fracture.
- The setting with Rodimus Prime is clearly set before the The Transformers episode "Grimlock's New Brain". The setting with Blackarachnia is just after the events of "Endgame Pt. III: Seeds of the Future", the series finale of Beast Machines. The setting with Arcee occures during a flashback in Transformers Animated to her mission during the war, first menitoned in "TransWarped". The setting with Knockout is set at some time in Transformers: Prime after the Decepticons get a sample of the synthetic energon forumla in "Stronger, Faster".
- The GM Fan device and the planet Namotorp (Protoman spelled backwards) and references to the online handles of TFcon organizers.
- Other characters mentioned but not appearing in this story include Generation 1 Bombshell, Perceptor, Skyfire, Skywarp and Thundercracker, Beast Machines Optimus Primal and Rattrap and Animated Ultra Magnus.
