Massive Cross-over idea.
Posted: Sat Sep 12, 2009 10:48 pm
Ummm... okay I'm brand new here so I don't know if it's okay for me to talk about this sort of thing here or not, since it's not a Beast Wars exclusive idea. But... if this is against the rules... feel free to lock it, mods 
Anyway, the main reason I'm doing a thread about this at all is merely to gain opinions and whatnot. If I do write it I probably won't post it here, but on fanfiction.net.
So yeah, here's the general idea:
A massive crossover, involving Star Trek the Original Series, Beast Wars, and either Generation 1 or Transformers Animated.
Basically, here's the idea: This is a total AU setting, as if the Beast Wars characters and--eh let's just say the TFA characters--co-exist, more or less, and are in a battle over Cybertron. That means that the Autobots and the Maximals co-exist and aide each other, although the Maximals are much smaller than the Autobots. And in the same way, the Decepticons and Predacons co-exist and aide each other.
Now, the Maximals and the Predacons were created as a new line, due to the Autobots and Decepticons coming into more frequent contact with planets that have organic life. So they wanted to create a line of robots that could take on a beast mode and blend in with whatever planet they happen to land on, so they wouldn't be noticed.
But they exist in a sector that is far, far away from any of the Federation planets, or the Klingon Empire or even the Romulan Star Empire, so none of these massive Empires/organizations know anything at all about the Cybertronians or their long war.
But the Cybertronians first come into contact with a colony way out on the outer fringes of the space that the humans know of and have explored. The Decepticons and Predacons devastate the planet in order to test their strength and durability. They leave no survivors, or so they think.
One young woman is still alive, but just barely, when the Maximals find her. But she has internal injuries and her right arm and right leg have been torn off. She's in shock, and only just barely alive. But, having some experience with organics and how they are, ah, built or whatever, a Maximal medic decides to see what he can do for her. So he ends up giving her a Cybertronian arm, a Cybertronian leg, and patching up some of her insides with some circuitry and robotic organics that operate as good subsitutes for what was damaged beyond repair. Plus the medic replaces her damaged skin with robotic skin/armor.
It's touch and go for a while, but the girl eventually recovers and wakes up. It takes her a while to get her bearings and to come out of her daze, but when she does, she freaks when she realizes that she's been made into half-machine, and it will be a long road of adjustment for her.
The Maximals are ready to make her an honorary Maximal if that's what she wants, but... she's still trying to get over the shock and whatnot before she can even think about that sort of thing.
Eventually, word of the destroyed colony gets back to Starfleet. Kirk and the Enterprise get sent out there to investigate, although by the time they get there, there's no one left there. The Predacons and Decepticons are long gone, and the Maximals have taken their new human friend and left for a more secure area themselves.
However, somehow or other, the Enterprise will eventually met the girl and her Maximal companions. And it will be discovered that the girl is, in fact, Spock's cousin from his mother's side of the family. (For those who don't know, Spock is half human.) So I figure that... maybe he could help her adjust somehow, since he knows what it's like to be half alien, so to speak.
That's about all I've got, except to say that, well, this will probably end up dragging Starfleet into involvement in the big war between the Decepticons/Predacons and Maximals/Autobots, whether they like it or not.
Okies, again I really hope this doesn't go against the rules or anything, me posting a plot bunny that deals with a crossover. But I figured I'd do it and hope it's okay.

I actually had it in mind that maybe the girl (I haven't come up with a name for her yet) and some of her Maximal companions go aboard the Enterprise.
I'll just say he never died or something.
