Beast Wars: Transformers plot
The Predacons steal two important gold disks from the planet Cybertron. As a result, a battle erupts between a Predacon ship and a Maximal ship. The Predacon ship's transwarp sends the two ships thousands of years back in time, where they crash into a mysterious planet. The planet turns out to be rich in Energon, an energy source that is dangerous to Transformers if they are exposed to it for too long. Trapped on a primitive planet, the Maximals and the Predacon fight over the precious mineral. A third party, a strong alien race, is not happy with the presence of the Maximals and Predacons and joins the fray.
