Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. Got stuck on Netflix (Sabrina*Satan Dark*) and Gaming (Vampyr).

(Megatron POV)

"Orion, have you made progress with project Iacon?" I asked checking up on Orion, as Ashe rests with Soundwave. Soundwave was still distraught, but he is getting over it.

"It seems, I am a bit rustier than I thought." Orion said back, "Might that having anything to do with the nature of your after hours research? Did I fail to mention that we would be tracking your activities." I said walking over to his station and had brought up the other tab. Once it came up, Orion had sung like earth's canary.

"Why does history portray me siding with the Autobots aggressors? And why did Starscream call me a Prime? I must know, Who am I?!" Orion said asking questions and wanting answers. I didn't know Starscream had called him Prime. Looks like Starscream and I will need to have a talk later. 

"You are my Clerk, now get back to work and decode that database." I said a little to angerly. Orion looked taken back, "No. I rather erase my findings than make them available for your questionable use." Orion said as pressed a button and did so. 

He erased his findings.

Orion walked away, and I could only chuckle. Making him turn around, I pressed a button and it brought up what Orion thought was erased. "Did you really think we wouldn't be tracking and documenting every iota of your invaluable research." I asked, and Soundwave soon came in. Ashe wasn't with him, so Ashe must have been passed to someone else's care.

Soundwave brought up Cybertron and details next to it. "One of our sentries were activated on Cybertron?" I asked Soundwave, "You told me our planet was dead." Orion then spoke up. "That is besides the point. Guards! You will finish project Iacon by the time I return, or I will carve out your spark before your very eyes." I threatened. Everything was falling apart. I made my way to the main deck.

"The activity log indicates my space bridge was set for Cybertron, and remains open. The only possible reason the Auto-bots take such a risk would be to restore their precious Optimus Prime." I said, planning how this might go.

I decided to ground bridge and take down the auto-bots myself. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"If they chew through Vector Sigma before the matrix fully reloads-"

"So, Vector Sigma is more than legend." I said walking out of the ground bridge Soundwave opened. "You Auto-bots have gone to impressive lengths to recover your leader. Be assured, I shall never underestimate you again." I said. There was only three of them. The scout, bumblebee. The wrecker, Bulkhead. And the Medic, Ratchet.

"Now, I assume the one called Arcee will be stepping through that portal, with the reloaded Matrix of Leadership in hand." I said, as Ratchet moved in front of the space bridge portal, "We hold the space bridge at all costs." Ratchet said as the scout and wreaker got out their blasters.

I ducked under the blasts and swung my left hand into the wreaker's gut sending him flying a good while away, then grabbing the medic by his head and throwing him against the wall. The scout then pelted me with blasts, but I swiftly got to him, grabbed him and slammed against the ground. Sparking flying off as the metal of the scout scraped the metal platform, as he then bounced off and away. 

I brought out my blade, ready to attack the scout but the medic had rushed me from my left side, I rolled him, grabbed him and threw him against one of the metal pillars. "Your going down, bucket head!" The wreaker said rushing me from behind, grabbing me as the impact toppled us over the side of the platform and down onto the cave floor.

There was a small power struggle but I won quick, grabbed him by his wrist and tossed him. The Medic and Scout were already down, and now the wreaker was out for the count with the rest of them.

I looked at the portal, the space bridge still open of course. I moved to stand in front a while away from it. I was ready for Arcee to come through. I ready' d my blade.

"Come on Arcee, So that I might end the lineage of the primes for all time." I said anxiously waiting for the fight. "I can not allow that to happen, Megatron." Orion spoke up. I turned to see him step out of a ground bridge. This well stacked tower is crumbling, and all it took was a misplaced word.

"And why should you care, Orion Pax? You are no prime." I said, trying to fix this already broken tower. "That may be true, or yet another deception, but this much I do know. My sympathies lie with the Auto-bots and you are not one of us." Orion... no...Optimus said taking out his blades. 

He ran at me, our blades clashing. The tower has fallen. I thought for once things could change... but now it can't... I used my free hand to punch Optimus in the gut.

"Your spark might be in the right place Orion." I said as he fell to his knees. I then hit his helm for him to land on his stomach. "But you have much to learn before you can hope to ever again stand your ground against me. A moment sadly which will never come." I said raising my blade to finish things... 

once and for all...

I wish it didn't have to end this way...

I heard the engine, I felt the full on tackle...

Arcee came out of the Space bridge and hit me so hard from behind I flew over Optimus and landed hard on my stomach.

 I finally caught Arcee and slammed her against one for the metal pillars. "How nice of you to join our little reunion, now if you please. The Matrix." I said growling out the last part, but in the midst of battle with Arcee, the human boy Jack had given Optimus his memories back.

I threw Arcee to the ground, and rushed over to Optimus and Jack, going to try and stop the process but the Medic had woken up and intercepted... but I just batted him away like the fly he was in one fell swoop.

Even so... It was too late.

"NO!" I yelled bringing my blade down upon him, but he stopped the attack with his hands.

"Megatron. Begone." Optimus said freeing one hand and decking me in the face. In my state I knew I didn't stand a chance. The tower I built for us to be friends again. For things to change. It was all ruins now. A thing of the past that he will forever think of as a deception...

He beat me and one impact slammed me against the cave wall. I landed on my stomach as I heard the other Auto-Bots getting up. I didn't care for the conversation he was making.

I climbed back up onto the metal platform, all of the bots were firing at me. They were escaping through their own ground bridge. I rushed over my own blaster firing back, Optimus was the last to go through.

I couldn't help but scream. That scream was nothing more to other ears a roar. I lost an old friend once again...

Why do they leave in the end?

Will Ashe Leave Me As Well?
