	At the ''[[Graviton (Classics)\|Graviton]]'', [[Depth Charge (BW)\|Depth Charge]] has the computer lock on the coordinates of [[Origin Matrix]], and tells it to inform the others that he's gone hunting for it. Blasting off, Depth Charge finds a hatch, and descends down it into an underground chamber. Unfortunately, Depth Charge activates the security systems when he reaches the bottom, bringing numerous turrets online and ready to fire. Back at the ''Graviton'', [[Prowl (G1)\|Prowl]] has managed to come up with an alternative source of energy: organic food. Pleased, [[Ultra Magnus (G1)\|Ultra Mammoth]] prepares to move out to Depth Charge's location. [[Silverbolt (G1)\|Silverbolt]] is still worried about what [[Megatron (G1)\|Megatron]] plans to do with the energy purifier his troops stole. Mammoth shares his concerns, but the Origin Matrix takes priority.

	Back at the chamber, Depth Charge has managed to take out most of the turrets. Unfortunately, as he takes out two more, the finale turret manages to clip him, and prepares to blast him in the head. Depth Charge is saved, however, when Ultra Mammoth takes it out with his cannon; Mammoth admonishes the extra-dimensional Maximal for going off on his own, much to Depth Charge's chagrin. Heading forward, the Maximals are soon confronted by strange bio-mechanical bat-like creatures, who attack them. Depth Charge tells Mammoth to head forward while he and the others keep the bats busy, as only a leader can recover the Matrix. Reluctantly pushing forward, Ultra Mammoth finds the Origin Matrix, and is confronted by a seemingly-familiar face: [[Primus]]! The construct explains that he is not Ultra Mammoth's god; rather, it is based on a figure of authority from his memory banks. The hologram proceeds to explain that this planet is part of "the Experiment," studying the chaos that this universe is based on. Mammoth pleads with the construct to give him the Matrix so he can restore order to this world; the construct tells him that chaos is the natural order of this universe...but the Matrix does not hail from this world, and only it can decide if Mammoth is worthy...

	==Synopsis==		==Synopsis==
	[[Depth Charge (BW)~~#Beast Wars: Uprising~~\|Depth Charge]] has the computer ~~get a fix~~ on the ~~location~~ of ~~the~~ [[Origin Matrix]] and ~~leaves a message for~~ the ~~other [[Maximal]]~~s ~~before leaving the ship~~. ~~Heading to the coordinates~~, he finds a hatch ~~in the ground~~, ~~opens~~ it ~~and jumps in~~, ~~only to find himself in~~ the ~~middle of a chamber with a fairly hefty~~ security ~~system aiming guns at him. Meanwhile~~, ~~the other Maximals have returned to their ship~~ and ~~found a solution~~ to ~~their energy purifier problem—they can simply eat food~~. ~~Though~~ [[Prowl (G1)~~/Marvel Comics continuity~~\|Prowl]] ~~is worried about the fate~~ of ~~their missing purifier~~, ~~the Maximals~~ move out to ~~assist~~ Depth Charge. ~~Unfortunately they're being spied on by~~ [[~~Seawing~~ (G1)\|~~Seawing~~]]~~, who notifies~~ [[Megatron (G1)~~/Marvel Comics continuity~~\|Megatron]].		At the ''[[Graviton (Classics)\|Graviton]]'', [[Depth Charge (BW)\|Depth Charge]] has the computer lock on the coordinates of [[Origin Matrix]], and tells it to inform the others that he's gone hunting for it. Blasting off, Depth Charge finds a hatch, and descends down it into an underground chamber. Unfortunately, Depth Charge activates the security systems when he reaches the bottom, bringing numerous turrets online and ready to fire. Back at the ''Graviton'', [[Prowl (G1)\|Prowl]] has managed to come up with an alternative source of energy: organic food. Pleased, [[Ultra Magnus (G1)\|Ultra Mammoth]] prepares to move out to Depth Charge's location. [[Silverbolt (G1)\|Silverbolt]] is still worried about what [[Megatron (G1)\|Megatron]] plans to do with the energy purifier his troops stole. Mammoth shares his concerns, but the Origin Matrix takes priority. As they move out, however, the spying [[Seawing (G1)\|Seawing]] transmits their conversation to Megatron, who has him return to base in preparation for their attack...

	~~The Maximals reach~~ Depth Charge ~~in time~~ to ~~save him from~~ the ~~rogue security system~~. ~~They~~ blast the ~~last of the guns~~, ~~but~~ when ~~they move into~~ the ~~next chamber~~, ~~they~~'~~re promptly attacked by a cloud of bats~~. ~~Urged on~~ by ~~the others~~, ~~[[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity\|Ultra Magnus]] leaves~~ them to ~~fight~~ the bats ~~and goes into~~ the ~~next room where he indeed~~ finds ~~a matrix floating in light. As he approaches it~~, a ~~hologram of~~ [[Primus]] ~~appears~~ to ~~dispense enigmatic exposition and inform Magnus~~ that the ~~[[Origin~~ Matrix\|Matrix~~]] will~~ decide if he is worthy to ~~wield it~~. ~~Apparently~~ the ~~Matrix approves of him~~, ~~as he returns~~ to the ~~others~~ and uses it to scare off the ~~bats~~. ~~Moments later there~~'~~s a rumbling sound~~ and the ~~roof explodes~~ to reveal [[Gigastorm Armor\|~~a giant saurian mech~~]] ~~being piloted by~~ Megatron.		Back at the chamber, Depth Charge has managed to take out most of the turrets. Unfortunately, as he takes out two more, the finale turret manages to clip him, and prepares to blast him in the head. Depth Charge is saved, however, when Ultra Mammoth takes it out with his cannon; Mammoth admonishes the extra-dimensional Maximal for going off on his own, much to Depth Charge's chagrin. Heading forward, the Maximals are soon confronted by strange bio-mechanical bat-like creatures, who attack them. Depth Charge tells Mammoth to head forward while he and the others keep the bats busy, as only a leader can recover the Matrix. Reluctantly pushing forward, Ultra Mammoth finds the Origin Matrix, and is confronted by a seemingly-familiar face: [[Primus]]! The construct explains that he is not Ultra Mammoth's god; rather, it is based on a figure of authority from his memory banks. The hologram proceeds to explain that this planet is part of "the Experiment," studying the chaos that this universe is based on. Mammoth pleads with the construct to give him the Matrix so he can restore order to this world; the construct tells him that chaos is the natural order of this universe...but the Matrix does not hail from this world, and only it can decide if Mammoth is worthy...

			The Maximals are soon surrounded by the creatures, who have shifted into humanoid form, ready to destroy the intruders. Fortunately for the Maximals, Mammoth has managed to recover the Origin Matrix, and uses its light to scare off the creatures. The threats aren't over yet, however; the ground begins to rumble, and the ceiling to the chamber is vaporized, reveal the Predacons led by Megatron, encased in a [[Gigastorm Armor\|massive, reptilian mecha]]. Megatron demands that they hand the Matrix over, or be annihilated!
