Characters:Abominus, Open to all Location: The Rumbledome, Crown City Content Warnings: Excessive showboating Plot Summary: Abominus discovers a new love for humanity
At this point it was Abominus, not the Rumbledome staff, who decided when the main event was finally over. Unfortunately for all the derby contestants, the fans, management, and the physical establishment itself, he was hellbent on going to the break of dawn.
At least everyone watching was getting way more than their money's worth for the evening.
Abominus had simply strolled into town one day, part of what was supposed to be his first 'foray' to Earth, and now here he was. Handing the Rumbledome contestants their afts all tied up neat in a ribbon, over and over again. The best part was that nobody had actually tried to stop him, save for the Rumble Royale contestants that were all supposed to be fighting. They'd taken Abominus as just another challenger. To the big man himself, he really was just another challenger.
"Aaaah-aaaaaaaah, AH!" "Aaaah-aaaaaaaah, AH!"
The worst part was that the crowd was starting to play along. The walking-crime-against-nature was dancing along to the music, flourishing when the beat picked up, pointing to the crowd and everything; and they were LOVING it. Abominus flicked his tail sharply, sending another demolition rig careening into the side of the ring, whipping the audience into a frenzy. Apparently, management's only idea on how to stop him was to send everybody out all at once, which he was completely fine with. Two more contenders collided with his legs while his back was turned towards the crowd, both of them using the weapons they'd welded onto their trucks in a futile attempt to stop him.
"I COME FROM THE LAND OF THE ICE AND SNOW!" "FROM THE MIDNIGHT SUN WHERE THE HOT SPRINGS FLOW!"
Abominus ducked down to look through both of his legs at the drivers, giving them his best winning smile. The Predacon have a howl as he spun around to smash the both of them aside in one swift motion. The wreckage and debris was flowing like oil at this point, and while management hated all the damage he was causing, they didn't seem to mind all the ticket and concession sales.
An amazing demolition derby aside, Abominus was liable to bring down the arena if this kept up. Once again, it wasn't his problem if the building codes weren't up to his standards.
If there was one thing that Grimlock liked about Crown City, it was the Rumbledome. He couldn't always hang out there, but every time he was in the area he made it a point to go. All the smashing and all the fighting! It was just like the days of the Pits of Kaon. Sure he wasn't one of the most well known fighters there, but he'd had his fair share of fights.
And today's crowd sounded quite energized this time!
It took some effort, but the Dinobot managed to sneak a peek at the action, spotting the usual contestants.. but something didn't seem right. One of the contestants looked more like a Dinobot... or something Cybertronian anyway. Grimlock watched as it thrashed all the other contestants, unsure of what to do.
He could go in, but Bumblebee would probably get mad. But if he didn't go in.. people were going to get hurt! What if he went in and caught this guy?
Bee would be proud! Right?
That settled it. Time to open the door and get on the floor. Time to walk the dinosaur.
Shifting into his Dinobot form, Grimlock rushed right on in, his optics taking in his surroundings as the landed on the one thing that was clearly not like the others. He punched a closed fist into an open servo, grinning.
He let loose a bellowing laugh, after having demonstrated his might against such worthy opponents. The sudden vibrations in the ground beneath him sent a sharp shiver up the Predacon's spine, prompting him to slowly turn around to the arena's entrance. The appearance of this particular newcomer sent a shake through Abominus, followed by a toothy grin. There wasn't even the time to form a proper battle strategy; this new challenger was simply too appetizing to waste any more time.
The other competitors no longer existed as far as Abominus was concerned, his predatory instincts having wiped them clean from his mind. He tore off towards Grimlock at a rather high speed for someone of his height and mass. Abominus twisted and warped in such a way that might seem like half-running, half-tripping, yet emerged as having transformed into a massive wolf-like beast.
The massive mass of instinct and metal kicked off of its hind legs and straight toward the Dinobot, leaping through the air with the intent of sinking his massive fangs into the Autobot's shoulders.
Grimlock was ready to rock, charging straight at the other guy who'd had the exact same idea. The Dinobot loved a good fight, and was going to throw everything he had at his new opponent. Losing just wasn't a concept in his mind, especially when he wanted to impress Bumblebee so much!
The Predacon chomped down right into his shoulder upon lunging at him, the Dinobot roaring in pain and frustration. It only stopped the mech in his tracks for a hot second before Grimlock grabbed at his assailant. His servos might have been somewhat smaller in his Dinobot form, but still larger than that of the true original king of beasts. Upon getting a firm enough grip, Grimlock leaned back in an attempt to suplex the Predacon.
"That all you got!?"
Even at the beginnings of this fight, Grimlock could easily think back to all the times he had to fight back in the Pits of Kaon, just laying the smack down on all of his foes. He may not have come out on top every time, but it didn't stop him from trying!
Delicious energon flowed across Abominus's glossa, his reward for landing a well-aimed chomp. He had hoped to tear out a larger chunk of the Autobot too, although they apparently had other plans for him. Abominus's optics widened as he was suddenly hoisted up into the air clean off the ground. The sheer surprise of it all drew his attention away from his grip, letting energon bleed from Grimlock's now toothless shoulder. As he was being manhandled through the air, time seemed to slow down entirely. Abominus began to experience a brand new feeling for the very first time.
Such a wondrous alt-mode! He bet it could exert ten times the pressure that his own lupine jaw could. All that lovely forward momentum it must have while it charged!
*Crack*
Abominus smacked against the ground as Grimlock finally suplexed him, although in reality it only took roughly a half-second. He spit out the energon he'd taken out of his mouth as his body was suddenly compressed far more than it should have been. Dazed, and also partially in love, Abominus produced a big, dumb grin.
He was feeling absolutely magical.
Transforming, Abominus sat, then stood up as if being suplexed by a tyrannosaurus rex hadn't phased him. It had, but not physically. With the biggest smile he replied, "Of course it isn't!" Wasting no time, Abominus proceeded to punch a hole into space-time. His own very special way of retrieving a weapon from subspace. His hand seemed to vanish into a void just sitting a few meters in front of him, until he began to pull something out of it. Abominus pulled the Umbral Blade clean out of subspace, before twirling it over his head to begin slashing away at Grimlock.
