Disclaimers: Hasbro own TFs. I’m just playing chess with them ;)
With thanks to
Stanley Lui and his TF fic “The
chess set, for
the further inspiration though with reapect, I think I chose better players ;)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let’s Play!
CHESS …
The board
is set … The pieces are moving …
Autobots, Transform! … Start your
engines… Roll Out!
King - Optimus Prime (King Optimus? Gods, No …
Doesn’t have the same ring as Prime, now does it? How about King
Prime?
Slag, that’s worse! Wait …
Optimus King? … Now that actually sounds good.
Queen - Ironhide
(The most trusted advisor … Loyal to the King … Blushing … Aww shucks, Prahme…
;)
Knight - Jazz (Makes cool sword moves)
Bishop - Mirage (Likes the serenity and silence of the game)
Rook - Prowl (Loves a game of logic, wits and
strategy)
Pawn - Bumblebee
(Awww poor Bumbles ;)
Bumblebee:
Heh, it’s only a game … Ahh… wait a breem …You don’t think it’ll be like
Wizard’s Chess, do you?
Mirage: I
think it’s gonna be exactly like Wizard’s Chess…
Bumblebee: (Gulps).
Jazz: Chill, Bumbles, we won’t let them get ya. Yo, Man … If I’m like a knight do I get a
sword, or way cooler - a kick ass lightsabre?
(Excitedly) Can I have a blue one? (Makes
lightsabre moves and noises)
Ironhide:
Shht! Quit yer yappin', the
game’s on!
Jazz: (Bows)
Yes, My Queen.
Ironhide: Why
you liddle …
Jazz ducks as Ironhide throws a muffler at him.
Optimus: Play
nice
Ironhide:
(Bows and makes elaborate hand gestures) Yes, Yer Majesty…
Optimus throws a license plate at him and even behind
that mouth plate you can see he’s smiling …:)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Decepticons ATTAAAACK!!!
King - Megatron (King Megatron… Lord Megatron … Overlord
Megatron… Emperor Megatron … Megatron
the
Merciless…Megatron, Supreme Ruler of all
the Universe … Ah! They all Sound good,
but King will do. For now.)
Queen - Soundwave (Who else? ;) … He also likes the logic and
silence btw :) and takes on his role with honour and duty :)
Knight -
Starscream (Wanted to be
King … ;)
Bishop - Shockwave (Really looking forward to a battle of logic, wit and
strategy with Prowl ;)
Rook - Thundercracker (Loves the idea of his own castle ;)
Pawn - Scavenger (Was beyond thrilled even to get to play … He even cried
… Awww … Though Megatron suggested
Starscream for a Pawn, much to the Jet’s
annoyance ;)
Megatron: Come on, it’s not as if I haven’t used him
as a guinea pigatron before…
Starscream:
(Glares at him) Not this time.
I’m too valuable to be-
Soundwave: Silence!
Starscream : (Bows)
Yes, My Queen
Soundwave: (Gives long deathly silent glare …) Off
with his head.
Megatron: (Raises his fusion canon and points it at
Starscream’s head) With pleasure …
Starscream:
Nooooo!! Please … I’m too cute! …
And … and you can’t kill your courageous, trusty knight now can you… (Hopeful)
Megatron:
Trusty?
Soundwave: Courageous?
Thundercracker:
Cute?! (He’s jealous ;)
Megatron prepares to fire.
Starscream:
(Desperate, whimpers…) Well … uh … well who … who’ll watch your back???
Megatron: My
Queen.
Soundwave moves and stands beside him folding arms.
Starscream:
(Desperate still…) Well … uhh
…actually … the game’s about to start,
and you do need a Knight. So there.
What’re you all waiting for? Let’s get on
with it, shall we? Oh, wait … Can I have a lightsabre too? I want a red one.
Megatron: No.
You’ll only use it to deflect MY blasts…
Starscream: (Smiles) Can’t blame a robot for
trying. Now let’s play! I, STARSCREAM, Brave, Loyal and Handsome
Knight of
Cybertron will Triumph!!!!
Megatron:
(Grunts) It’s going to be a loooong Knight …
Jazz: Uhh do you think Screamer knows it’s the King who’s the main player?
Optimus Prime: Never stopped him before…
