Fiction

Kid Stuff Talking Story Books continuity

The Decepticons built their crystal satellite and its launch complex in the jungles of Mato Grosso. This much to Soundwave's dismay, as the jungle humidity had a detrimental effect on his cassette drives. Nobody cared. Once the final piece, a large diamond, had been placed atop the satellite, it was launched into orbit. The Autobots had taken note of their enemy's activities however, so Megatron blew up the launch complex and withdrew with his troops back to base to continue to monitor and control the crystal satellite's mission in safety. Satellite of Doom

The Decepticons' scheme failed and some time later, Megatron and Soundwave returned to the site of the former launch complex, which had been reabsorbed by the jungle. Megatron explained that he intended to obtain the oil underneath the South American jungles. Soundwave complained once more about the area's humidity, but complimented the Decepticon leader on his latest display of ingenuity. Meanwhile, while the local wildlife had been scared off by the arrival of the two giant robots, the local Native Americans had not. One of them, armed with a blowgun and poisoned darts, took a shot at Soundwave, but the dart just bounced off. Megatron and Soundwave were not impressed.

Since the Autobots stopped the Decepticons' plan in Peru, the Decepticons never got far enough to drain so much as a drop of oil from the Mato Grosso area. Storms of Destruction
