變形金剛：超能爭霸戰 #32 大綱（上）

Here's the next bit of unseen/unpublished Energon, in outline form, the first half of issue #32's ‘Armageddon Part 1' (the beginning of the end for Energon):
接下來是未發表過的《超能爭霸戰》大綱，32話「世界末日 Part1」（超能爭霸戰的結局開端）的上半部：
Cybertron has become a dark, dangerous and lawless place, and gangs of Decepticons (emboldened by the resurgence of Megatron on Earth) now roam freely, openly, actively looking to re-open old wounds, enflame old hostilities. In sector zero, Dropshot encounters just one such gang, comprised of former Autobot Wheeljack, Skywarp and Thundercracker. Dropshot wants to go about his business, repairing a defective grid switch (part of a network that delivers refined energon across the planet), but Wheeljack and the others are intent on provoking him. Finally, Dropshot loses all pretense of diplomacy and engages weapons systems, ready for a fight. Wheeljack and the other Decepticons appear suddenly afraid… but not of Dropshot. Rising/forming behind Dropshot is the ghost-like Starscream, a deranged creature of pure energon!
賽柏坦變成黑暗、危險的無法之地，霸天虎團夥（因地球上復活的威震天變得有底氣）現在自由地、公開地、積極地流竄，尋找並重新揭開舊傷，點燃對立情緒。在零號扇區，雨擊就遭遇了一隊這樣的團夥，由前汽車人千斤頂、鬧翻天和驚天雷組成。雨擊想去執行自己的工作，修復有缺陷的格狀交換機（這部分網路是用來傳輸精製超能量穿過星球），但是千斤頂和其他人意圖激怒他。最終，雨擊放棄所有外交手段，啟用武器系統，為戰鬥做好準備。千斤頂和其他霸天虎突然面露懼色……但不是因為雨擊。像是紅蜘蛛的鬼魂從雨擊背後升起現形，一個純粹超能量的瘋狂生物！
Dropshot is seized by Starscream and hoisted twitching into the air. Wheeljack, Skywarp and Thundercracker flee in abject terror. Finally, Starscream discards Dropshot (his body almost completely drained of energon). To Starscream's unhinged mind, all Cybertronians are merely “fragments of the eternal flame” that he must extinguish & consume!
雨擊被紅蜘蛛抓住，懸在空中抽搐。千斤頂、鬧翻天和驚天雷在極度驚駭中逃跑。終於，紅蜘蛛丟掉雨擊（他身體的能量幾乎完全枯竭）。對於紅蜘蛛發狂的神智而言，所有塞伯坦人只是「永恆火焰的碎片」而他必須熄滅和吸收他們！
In Avalon's private chambers on Cybertron, the High Councillor communicates (via an interface console) with Alpha Quintesson. Avalon sees a way to remove the threat posed by Over-Run (to the coming ‘Inversion') without raising any suspicion. He has divined a pattern of sorts in Starscream's madness and believes that with suitable prompting/bait this ‘force of nature' can be directed right to Over-Run's door. Alpha Quintesson reports in turn that Unicron is now close to full reactivation, and that, as a consequence, their other rogue element (Optimus Prime) is running out of places to hide.
在阿瓦隆位於塞伯坦的私人辦公室內，最高委員（正透過介面控制台）與阿法Q通訊。阿瓦隆知道一個方法來消除造成威脅的超速（對於正在到來的「翻轉」）而不會引起懷疑。他已經稱得上能預測紅蜘蛛瘋狂的模式，並相信只要適當的引導/誘餌，這股「自然力量」就能對準超速的大門。輪到阿法Q報告，宇宙大帝現在接近完全激活，而且，這意味著，他們的另一名不法分子（擎天柱）即將無處可藏。
Sure enough, deep within Unicron, Optimus Prime is fighting a desperate and losing battle against Unicron's lethal internal defences. And for every bit of damage Prime does to the larger infrastructure, every sector or zone he ‘kills,' thirty others come on line. The only way forward, Prime believes, is to somehow cut off the steady supply of energon that is rapidly restoring Unicron to operational/aware status.
果然，在宇宙大帝內部深處，擎天柱正與宇宙大帝的致命內部防禦殊死對抗並逐漸落敗。擎天柱對較大設施所造成的任何一點損傷，以及他「殺死」任何扇區或區域，都會有其他30個部位來到前線。擎天柱相信，唯一前進的道路就是用某種方法切斷穩定供給的超能量，那些超能量使宇宙大帝急速恢復運行/知覺狀態。
Earth: and Jetfire and Perceptor (combined Street Action Team) gauge the approach of Unicron, calculating 30 earth days until it reaches Cybertronian space. Jetfire wants all Mars base sensors trained on Unicron — as he hopes Prime will try and make contact. Perceptor conjectures that even if Prime is within Unicron (and they only have Megatron's cryptic ‘belly of the beast' message to go on) the chances of him being still alive are infinitesimal. But, above all else, Jetfire “believes” in Optimus Prime.
地球：天火和感知器（由街頭行動小隊合體）測量宇宙大帝的接近，計算出30個地球日就會到達塞伯坦人的宇宙空間。天火要求所有火星基地傳感器朝向宇宙大帝——他希望擎天柱會嘗試並建立聯繫。感知器推測即使擎天柱在宇宙大帝內部（他們只能根據威震天的隱喻「在怪獸的肚子裡」這個訊息來推測）他仍然存活的機率是極度微小。但是，最重要的是，天火「相信」擎天柱。
