"... Of Cheese!"
by SolarBlaze(HDW)

Rattrap carefully walked up to Optimus, who was working on something that had gone wrong with the main computer.

"'Ey dere, Optimus. Er...um..."

"Yes? What is it, Rattrap?"

"Is dere um... is dere somethin' ya need me ta do?"

"Not at the moment. Why?"

Rattrap became uneasy.

"Umm. No reason. S-so dere's nothin' ya need me ta do right now?"

Optimus answered Rattrap without looking away from what he was doing.

"No, there's nothing I can think of. Just do something."

"Okay, if you're sure. I'm goin' ta... um...go fer a walk or somethin' like dat."

"Whatever. That's fine."

Rattrap made his way to the lift. When he got off the lift, he started running for his intended destination. Not long after Rattrap left, Optimus finally finished what he was working on.

"Okay, now that's done."

It wasn't until then that he realized what Rattrap was really getting at.

"Rattrap? No, he couldn't have."

"Rattrap couldn't have done what?"

Optimus turned around to see Rhinox walk through the door. Optimus sighed and shook his head.

"He's gone after Megatron's cheese again."

Cheetor was walking by and overheard their conversation.
"What?! RT is after Meg's cheese, again!"

"Yes. Again. I don't understand why it's that important since we fuel up on energon"

"It's just a part of his beast mode, Optimus."

"I know that's what it is, Rhinox, but something still bothers me. Why would Megatron make such a big deal out of it? Maybe there's something about this cheese that Rattrap knows about that we don't."

"Hey, Big Bot, what does cheese taste like anyway?"

"I don't know. I've never had it. Have you, Rhinox?"

"No. The only time I've seen it is when Rattrap has it."

"Well, what is it made of?"

"I don't know how it is made. The only thing I know for sure is that it’s edible. And, if Megatron is concerned about making it, you may have a point, Optimus."

Dinobot, who picked up some of the conversation, irritably walked by and mumbled something about Maximal incompetence before leaving the base to go on patrol. Optimus continued the discussion.

“Maybe it’s nothing but Megatron is known for having his schemes. Either way, we will get to the bottom of this. One way or another.”

_______________________________________________________________________
The purple liquid swirled around the resting form of the Predacon tyrant as he was taking his regular bath. Of course, that infamous rubber duck of his was floating listlessly around the tank as one might expect. Between dealing with his Predacon troops and formulating plans for the Maximals' inevitable doom, this was one of the few moments that Megatron got any peace. That is, until Scorpinox called in through the com-link.

"Megatron! Rattrap is attempting to steal the cheese again and the defenses aren't holding him back!"

Megatron chuckled. "Then let the vermin take it."

"B-but Megatron. I thought we were going to prevent him from stealing it again."

"No. Not this time. Our dear Tarantulas has prepared something special for Rattrap, yesssss. Let the rat take the cheese but don't make it look too easy."

"Yes, Megatron."

Megatron leaned back against the tub and chuckled.

“Yes, I do believe this will be the last we hear of the Vermin.”

________________________________________________________________________
Dinobot grumbled to himself as he walked along a dry, desert-like plain.

“These Maximals are fools,” he thought to himself.

“How in the world could these Maximals expect to defeat Megatron when they cannot even focus on meaningful tasks? Instead of worrying about that Vermin's problems, they could have been devising ways to defeat Megatron. Have I made the right choice in siding with the Maximals? Or should I return to my Predacon heritage?”

Dinobot shivered with disgust when his thoughts rested on Megatron.

“No. I will never come crawling back to that fool Megatron!”

And as far as Dinobot knew, the Predacons were just as involved in this Rattrap/ cheese issue.

Dinobot clinched his scaly fist.

“Perhaps it is time to take matters into my own hands,” Dinobot said as he ran towards the Predacon base.

________________________________________________________________________
Rattrap sat on a rock with his feet propped up in the middle of the jungle. He was intensely studying the results of his recent visit to the Darkside, this time managing to steal two wheels of cheese instead of one.

“Let's see, now. Which one will I eat now an' which one should I save fer later? Swiss sounds good, but...eh, maybe da chedda is betta.”

As Rattrap pondered this, Optimus' voice came through his comlink.

“Rattrap to base.”

“What does he want now?” said Rattrap before answering his comlink. “Yea, what is it, Fearless Leader?”

“Rattrap, I need you to report to base immediately.”

Rattrap sighed. “Okay, I'm comin'.”

________________________________________________________________________
Tarantulas burst into the room. He looked a combination of both frantic and angry. In one hand he held a small glass test tube and in the other he dragged a sniveling Waspinator.

“Megatron!!”

Megatron, being disturbed from having a peaceful bath time yet again, glared at the spider and gave a warning growl before responding.

“Yessss…”

Tarantulas took a step forward and threw the pitiful Waspinator before Megatron.

“This fool has ruined everything! I’ve discovered that he has mixed some chemicals into the formula that would have eliminated Rattrap. Our plans to at last be rid of that Vermin are gone!”

“W-Wazpinator could not help it. Wazpinator get bored then zee pretty colorz. Lotz of pretty colorz! Blue and red and green and purp…”

“Silence you fool!” Megatron said. The look on his face said that he had had just about enough of the incompetence of his troops. Waspinator gulped. However, Megatron calmed down and kept his composure.

“Tarantulas, what is the effect of the formula now?”


“The formula is very unstable. There is a possibility that the infected cheese may still destroy the rat but there is also a chance that it may give him tremendous power. Either that or it could make him insane. Teeheehee. But the rat stole two wheels of cheese. Both of them had some of the formula on them, but there is no way of telling what effect they might have on Rattrap!” Tarantulas angrily stared at Waspinator.

“Wazpinator zorry.”

“Are you certain that this concoction has not infected the rest of our cheese, Tarantulas?”

“I am sure, Megatron, and even if it does become infected, it has no effect on Predacons.”

“Excellent, yesss. But, we must not take our chances on the Vermin,” Megatron said as he activated his comlink. “Megatron to Inferno!”

Inferno, who was busy worshiping his “Megatron Is The Queen” picture, answered quickly.

“Yes, Megatron?”
v
“Inferno, I need you to retrieve the cheese from that Vermin immediately!”

“As you command, my Queen!”

________________________________________________________________________
Slowly he approached the corner of a hallway. So far the base had been unusually quiet; not completely devoid of activity altogether but still not as active as he had hoped. It made him uneasy. He carefully peered around the corner, ready to pull his sword out at moments notice. No one was present so he made his way to the storage room smoothly. Since the Maximals were too preoccupied to be of any use towards the downfall of Megatron, Dinobot decided to at least “borrow” a few things from the Predicons to help the Maximals regain their true focus in this war.
