The Lazy Eyebrow

I was going through old files today cleaning up my hard drive, and found this script I wrote late at night 7 years ago after a particularly rough day. I had forgotten entirely about it, and sorta wish in retrospect I had at least attempted to bring it to reality. Oh well. Feel free to read it if you have the time

===============================

[opens on a wide shot of Oregon mountain range. in the distance you hear tires screeching and an engine screaming]

[cut to a multiple consecutive shots of drift driving through a narrow back road on a downhill. footage almost resembles clips of Initial D]

[eventually you hear sirens, and see flashing lights. Drift pulls over]

[transformation sound is heard followed by prowl walking in from camera right. Drift then transforms as well]

Drift - Come on.... What now?

Prowl - Drift, I've told you before, you can't be driving like that here. What if a real officer had seen you and tried doing an actual traffic stop?

Drift - well then I'd pull over, just like i did, but do the whole holo-projection thing Hound showed me

Prowl - it's not that simple! Like they're going to ask for pieces of ID, when your silly projection can't hand those over, they're going to fine you at best, tow you at worst. And what then?

Drift - Does it matter?

Prowl - Of course it matters. Because if you get impounded, you're breaking another law by escaping. Optimus told us to respect their law system, to lay low, and not draw too much attention to ourselves while we wait for the Decepticons to make their next move

Drift - Can you blame me though? I'm bored out of my mind! Optimus said wait for the next move, but it's been 80 cycles and we haven't heard the slightest blip. What did I even do so wrong that you felt the need to ruin my drive?

Prowl - For starters, you're driving on the wrong side of the road.

Drift - I am not!

Prowl - yes you are!

Drift - No, I was told the steering wheel goes on the inside if the road in regards to which lane. The alt mode i picked is right hand drive, so i go on the left lane.

Prowl - That's not-......In this par-.......fine. the second thing you're doing is driving recklessly. You should not be sideways in the corners, you could really hurt someone.

Drift - my name isn't just for laughs

Prowl - [sigh] Finally, you're speeding. The speed limit posted here is 60, and I've clocked you doing 95 in some of these stretches

Drift - Ok now that's a lie! Let me see that radar of yours. It's gotta be broken.

Prowl - it most certainly is not, I'll bring it up for you.....see? Everything's working in....

[Prowls radar starts beeping]

[Without a word prowl transforms and drives off]

Drift - hey, wait, where you going?!

[Transforms and follows]

[Eventually comes to a rock face with nearby abandoned train tracks]

Drift - So are you going to tell me what's up? Or....

Prowl - Radar picked up an energon trace

Drift - In this rockface?

Prowl - Evidently

Drift - Huh, so maybe my being out here isn't as bad as you're making it out to be

Prowl - I don't know. Still could be

Drift - Do you ever just....relax? Or is the world always serious and militant and by the book?

Prowl - There's a reason why I'm the military strategist Drift. I take my job very seriously. I know your history, I'm glad you're an Autobot now, but would it kill you to take things seriously sometimes instead of insisting on doing things your own way? We don't need a loner, we need a team player

Drift - Fine. Point taken. So now what? We start digging?

Prowl - No, protocol in this case is to head back to the ark and get backup.

Drift - But whoever it is in there could be dying!

Prowl - And whoever it is in there could be a Decepticon for all we know. We get backup.

Drift - Come on, there's two of us, and one signal. A really weak signal at that. Surely if it's something bad the two of us could take it

Prowl - [looking at his communicator] Scrap. No signal. I'm going to drive back to base. I want you to stand guard and make sure no one else comes snooping.

Drift - Yeah alright, fine.

[Prowl transforms and drives off]

[Drift stands awkwardly alone]

[Drift does another scan, and finds the signal is slightly weaker]

Drift - Forget it, I'm not waiting around to see whether you die when I have the power to save whatever you are

[Drift starts smashing rocks, and digging away the rubble. Eventually coming across a massive industrial era steam locomotive in rough shape]

Drift - Man you have definitely been in here a while. What happened to you?

[Continues digging out rubble until all cleared away, then runs another scan]

Drift - You really are on your last legs of energy. Though considering you've been buried here for probably close to 90 planet cycles, I guess that's not all too surprising..... I don't see a faction anywhere on you....i guess that means you're a neutral? I can definitely respect that.

[Checks scanner again, signal is still fading]

Drift - I hope prowl gets back here soon. I don't know how much longer you're going to last

[Looks outside, not seeing anyone]

Drift - well..... maybe one energon cube wouldn't hurt...

[Produces one micro cube from a storage area in his arm, and hooks it up to locomotive. Signal begins to stabilize

Drift - There. see? Not sure why Prowl had to be such a stickler. Now I can just wait here knowing you're not about to pass out on me.

[Locomotive begins to slowly transform]

Drift - great. Oh well. Better pretend to be the welcome party. Bah weep gra nah weep ninny bong!

? - [in a distorted slitghtly garbled voice]....ugh.......

Drift - greetings fellow Cybertronian!

? - ......where......am I?

Drift - you're on a planet called Earth. The humans call this place Oregano, or something like that. I can't be bothered learning about this side of the planet. Much rather the other side. They have these really neat mountains in Japan, roads like you've never-

? - you talk too much

Drift - ...sorry......I uh.............how did you get here?

? - i don't.......remem.....ber..... another energon cube might..........jog the drives

Drift - I uh.....I don't know if i should. I've been told to wait for backup

? - Why?

Drift - [sigh] Protocol. Apparently...........Which i think is stupid! like clearly you're no threat! I don't know why- you know what? forget it! Here are my last 5. I don't see a faction on you, I don't see any harm

Dark figure takes all 5 and consumes them. His voice sounding more like it should

? - now that's more like it

Drift - ....odd

? - what is?

Drift - your voice, it sounds nearly identical to someone i know

? - And who might that be?

Drift - Just this red and blue truck who I apparently take orders from.....what uh.... what's your name? I don't think I've asked yet

? - Prime

Drift - what........

[Drift turns on shoulder headlights and shines them at black figure. sees what appears to be a black gold and teal steam punk Optimus, gearing up weapons

Drift - who- who are you?!

NP - I am Nemesis Prime. The Scourge of Cybertron

[Fight ensues between Gen Drift and Custom HoS Nemesis Prime based on this test footage found in a pinned comment. After a lengthy battle, Drift decides to switch to his katana, after using the last of his energon to deal a fatal blow, a weak nemesis reboots, removes the katana from his chest and adds it to his arsenal. he staggers outside and sees a convoy of autobots across the mountain range heading in his direction. He scans optimus and assumes a CoE alt mode [Earthrise Nemesis Prime], and drives off scanning for Megatron's signal]

I finally got around to this, but I was right, agent knight needed tan bits to represent the vehicle interior, not Hasselhoff jeans. This (to me) makes it feel much more like KITT vs Agent Knight

I've been saying for years in my videos that G1 Toy Hot Rod looks like a Saturn SC1. Apparently someone with a heck of a lot more money than I do agreed hahaha (I have no idea who's car this is, but would absolutely love to know)

This is EXACTLY what I've been saying a mainline Megatron should be for years. G1 looking Megatron, with no tank kibble that turns into an alright tank

Honestly I wish we could go back in time and just change Megatron into a tank from the getgo, it makes way more sense for the decepticon leader than just "oh he turns into someone's target master"
