Miko sighed as she felt two hands grab hers. She looked at her sides and saw Jack and Raf holding her hands,

"She's going to be alright, right?"

Jack nodded, 

"Yes, she will be,"

Arcee crossed her arms, 

"She is tough, don't worry,"

Miko nodded, 

"Yeah...she is,"

Raf smiled, 

"Hey, she did say she got us gifts!"

That made everyone turn to the younger boy as they realized that he was right, 

"Where are they?"

Ratchet sighed, 

"She would not tell me the location of where she did her work,"

They heard a set of wheels and turned to see a small toy car speeding up to them. Raf crouched down and picked up the car, 

"Maybe this is it. Where is the controller?"

"Hey now, I don't need no stinky controller!"

Everyone gasped, and Raf dropped the car.

"Ow! Don't drop me!"

The car transformed to show a small robotic phoenix.

Miko squealed, 

"OH MY GOD! YOU ARE SO COOL!"

The phoenix laughed, 

"I know I am, as did my creator,"

Jack laughed, 

"Maze created you to keep us out of trouble?"

The phoenix nodded, 

"Yes, well...more specifically, Miko."

Miko gasped, 

"Hey!"

The small Phoenix simply flapped her wings in response, 

"I have an important recording that Maze wanted me to share with everyone, including the Autobots,"

Ratchet nodded, 

"We are all listening,"

Phoenix nodded and set herself down on the table as everyone crowded around the small robot. Phoenix opened her mouth, and Mazikeen appeared in a projection from her mouth. Mazikeen smiled at the Robot, 

"Hey, everyone. If you are watching this recording, that means that my lil gift was given. Don't worry, she's not Cybertronian, just very fucking awesome. She's pretty similar to the robot I made for my baby brother, Sammy. But, she can transform into a car to make it easier to hide her. I know Miko is always trying to run into fights, so since I'm no longer there to make sure she doesn't get herself killed, I gave you all a mini-protector. This lil Phoenix has a stun gun equipped in her talons, Phoenix gave me the idea of a stun gun, I made sure it would be able to stun Cybertronians as well. Her name has not been given yet. I wanted you kids to name her yourself. I'll wait twenty seconds for you to name her,"

Miko immediately shouted, 

"AMBER!"

Jack and Raf gave her a look, and Jack laughed, 

"You have been waiting for this moment,"

Miko nodded proudly, 

"Frag, yeah!"

"Okay, I can only imagine Miko shouting a name at the top of her lungs. I left this message because I owe you guys an explanation. For some context, I'm leaving this message right after finding out that Unicron is awake, I snuck away for a sec to do this as quick as possible. I saw my Best friend, or Amica Endura partner, Barricade. That's his name. I know that you guys all think he's a Decepticon, but in my universe, he's neutral now. Anyways. I have his mark, and he has mine. It was the same mark the entire time since we established the bond. But, after I was teleported here, my mark on him changed. He told me the mark's meaning, but everyone over there is confused about it, too. I knew right after hearing about Unicron what it meant. He has the mark of the Heralf of Primus on his chassis, right where his old one for me was. Which I figured means that I am the Herald of Primus. He, for whatever reason, has chosen me as his champion once again. Well, not really once again, he really needs to start using his words a lil bit. Way back when I first met you guys, the Autobots, it was because of the AllSpark-"

"The what?"

"Quiet Miko!"

"Dam-"

"The AllSpark is an ancient relic to the Cybertronians. It is said to have the knowledge and power of Primus and Cybertron. The life of Cybertronians themselves. We found the AllSpark, it was in a cube, I am not sure if it is the same for this Universe or not. My team and I, along with my baby brother and his girlfriend, fought the Decepticons and Megatron to secure the AllSpark. But, Megatron and Optimus were fighting pretty bad. My baby brother was in the middle of it, and Optimus asked him to use the AllSpark cube to make a big boom by putting it in his spark chambers, which would offline him, Megatron, and maybe others. I took the cube from Sammy's hands and flew it straight to Megatron. I shoved it into his chassis, and it offlined him. But, I was also thrown back by the power too. Then I teleported away to my other home that I used with my friend. His wife found me and brought me back to the others and the Autobots. I returned, and after I was healed, I got my first vision of Primus. Buddy really gave me the chills at first, but he's pretty much a father or grandfather figure right now as I've known him for like four years. He's chill I guess, just been quiet since the last battle where Optimus finally offlined Megatron again. Anyways. Primus told me something very important in that first vision. I have the power of the AllSpark in me. I don't have the knowledge, that was in my brother's brain until it went away after the second big fight with the Cons. I can technically offline any Cybertronian, but that's too much energy. I can sometimes put them in a stasis. I am trying to work on creating a Cybertronian, I have a son I called Tex, he was originally Ratchet's data-pad but after getting a mini electrical zap by Jolt, I was able to create him. But he doesn't have a spark, and I have yet to try to make another one because I'm scared I won't be able to. That's my story. I'm sorry I won't be able to answer your questions. I'm not sure if I'm still alive or not, but I hope none of you blame yourself if I am. Especially you, Mister Optimus Prime. Lessen your load, and relax every now and then. I swear you are stiffer in this universe than mine and I didn't know that was possible. Heavy the burden of the Prime, I guess. But I have faith that I am alive, I have too much spite to die by Unicron's hand, or servo. Goodbye, Team Prime,"

Amber stopped the projection as everyone was shocked and silent. Optimus sighed, 

"To carry that burden. Mazikeen has proven once again how strong she is for a human. We must have hope that she will return for a visit,"

Bulkhead sighed, 

"And Jackie comes back,"

They turned to the Wheeljack's alt-mode, which had not moved one inch since he left with Pheonix and Samantha. Arcee patted Bulkhead's shoulder, 

"Wheeljack always comes back,"

Bulkhead smiled and nodded, 

"He does,"

Alexandra sighed as she sat down right next to Optimus's holo-form, 

"Hey,"

Optimus smiled at her, 

"Hello, what's on your mind?"

"Sophie just texted me in a panic. Sides and Sunstreaker passed out. We have to go meet them by the Medical Bay,"

Optimus frowned and immediately turned off his holo-form and picked her up gently in his servo, 

"Something else is wrong, you do remember that I can sense your emotions,"

Alexandra chuckled softly and nodded, 

"I'm worried about Maze. I miss her so much...I...I never really got to talk to her after the fight. We have been busy the entire time-"

"And you regret it,"

Alexandra nodded, 

"Y-Yeah...a lot. If Sunstreaker and Sides are in pain...doesn't that mean-"

Optimus softly put a digit on her back to comfort her, 

"Alexa, in the years that I have known Mazikeen. She has shown resilience beyond any other human. She will be alright,"

Alexandra sighed and hugged his digit, 

"I really hope so, Optimus,"

Optimus smiled at her, 

"Close your eyes, relax. That is what you always tell me when I am stressed,"

Alexandra laughed and nodded, 

"Alright, you got a point,"

Optimus smirked, 

"Of course I do,"

"Hey! You aren't supposed to get cocky on me now,"

Optimus chuckled softly and smiled at her, 

"Apologies, Alexa, now rest,"

Alexandra sighed but did as her sparkmate asked her.

Alexandra gasped as she opened her eyes and saw a metal world, 

"Cybertron,"

She heard a soft chuckle behind her and turned to see a man she had never seen before, 

"Who are you?"

The man smiled softly at her, 

"I have been told that you are good at guessing. I have a gift for you,"

Alexandra frowned, 

"A gift?"

The man nodded, 

"The Sparkmate of a Prime. Not only just a Prime but the last one. Optimus Prime. I would pretend to be surprised that his sparkmate is a human being, but I am not one to question. For I have chosen a human to be my champion,"

Alexandra's eyes widened, 

"Primus,"

Primus smiled and nodded his head, 

"Yes, I am, Alexandra Witwicky."

"Is my cousin alright?"

Primus sighed and put his hand on her shoulder, 

"I apologize, Alexandra. Mazikeen is strong, but she grows weaker every Earth minute. You must join in the journey that three will embark on to save her. I give you my blessing, the blessing of Primus. You have an ability that will become known when you arrive here,"

Alexandra frowned, 

"Here?"

Primus nodded, 

"The only hope that Mazikeen has now, is within Vector Sigma. You must journey with Wheeljack, Phoenix, and a human by the name of Jack Darby. The Wizard, Samantha will take two of you back to the Universe that was just traveled. Be careful, Alexandra, and remember who you are,"

Alexandra felt something change within her. She felt empowered for a split second before it faded, 

"Wait, what power?"

Primus smiled at her, 

"You will find out soon enough. Goodbye, Alexandra, may we meet again,"

Alexandra shot up in Optimus's servo, and he frowned at the panicked expression on her face, 

"Alexa?"

Alexandra shook her head, 

"I need to get to the Medical Bay now!"

Optimus nodded, immediately transformed into his alt-mode, and sped off to the Medical Bay. He transformed when he got there and was confused by how many people were there,

"What is going on?"

Arcee crossed her arms, 

"We aren't being let in, Ratchet and Jolt have the place on lockdown,"

Smokescreen nodded, 

"Yeah, I barely got Tex and Eddie in,"

Alexandra frowned, 

"Is Tex alright?"

Chromia frowned, 

"Something is wrong, and they won't tell us what happened. Ironhide and I barely dragged Sunstreaker and Sideswipe in before getting shoved back outside,"

Ironhide grunted, 

"Yeah, Samantha was let in, though, so I don't know what happened,"

Will glared at the door, 

"I wasn't even let in, and technically, I can override the door,"

Optimus sighed, 

"Okay, everyone calm down, I will speak with Ratchet,"

He walked up to the door and knocked on it, 

"Ratchet, open the door,"

He heard shuffling, and the door opened abruptly, and he was pulled in before it was closed again. Optimus frowned in confusion, but his optics widened when he saw the small group huddling around Mazikeen, 

"Mazikeen,"

Alexandra immediately jumped out of his servo and landed on the bed before running to her cousin, 

"Maze!"

Eddie grabbed her before she could reach her, 

"Alexa, stop,"

Alexandra felt her heart break as she realized something was wrong with her, 

"What's wrong? What happened to her?"

A man sighed and looked at her, 

"You are her cousin?"

Alexandra narrowed her eyes at him, 

"Yeah, who are you?"

He smiled at her softly, 

"Wheeljack, I was her temp guardian over at the other Universe,"

Alexandra's eyes widened in recognition, 

"You can help her,"

Wheeljack frowned in confusion, 

"How did you-"

"Primus spoke to me. He said that we could help Maze if we went to this place called Vector Sigma,"

Optimus frowned, 

"When did Primus speak to you?"

Alexandra blushed, 

"When I was asleep like a few minutes ago,"

Wheeljack frowned, 

"Huh...that's when I was speaking to him,"

"You know what we need to do?"

Wheeljack nodded, 

"Yes, we must go back to my Universe,"

Ratchet sighed and crossed his arms, 

"I don't like this plan,"

Wheeljack rolled his eyes, 

"Yes, yes, I know you don't. Jeese, you sound like my Ratchet,"

Ratchet narrowed his optics at him, 

"You should listen to him,"

Wheeljack sighed, 

"Yeah, yeah. Now, are we ready to go?"

Samantha sighed, 

"I'm rested enough, but I'll be tired when we get back to your universe, so don't expect our journey back to be within the hour,"

Wheeljack shrugged, 

"I'm just hoping it doesn't take a day,"

Optimus sighed, 

"Vector Sigma's location is hidden by a key, a key that was destroyed eons ago,"

Wheeljack smirked, 

"Maybe in this universe, but our Optimus has the key. He gave it to one of our human friends before we went to fight Unicron,"

Optimus's optics widened, 

"Unicron?"

Wheeljack nodded and pointed to Ratchet, 

"Doc over there can explain the story. We gotta go now if we hope to get Maze back,"

Phoenix nodded, 

"Let's go,"

Jazz grumbled, 

"I definitely don't like this,"

He was holding Tex in his servos as the small Cybertronian recharged. Eddie sighed, 

"You can't bring me with you, right?"

Samantha frowned, 

"I wish, but the spell is not made for that many people. I can only take three people,"

Phoenix patted Eddie's shoulder, 

"Not to worry, I will watch over everyone,"

Eddie sighed, 

"Just make sure you get Maz back to us,"

Alexandra nodded, 

"I won't let my cousin down,"

Optimus sighed and knelt down in front of the bed, and looked at Alexandra, 

"Alexa, please be careful,"

Alexandra smiled and kissed his cheek, 

"Don't worry, Optimus, I'll return and bring my cousin back,"

Optimus nodded, 

"Alright,"

Phoenix flew over to Alexandra and quickly wrapped herself around her,

"I have Phoenix, I'll be fine,"

Optimus nodded, 

"I have faith,"

"Me too,"

Jazz sighed as he watched them huddle around Samantha. They were gone as soon as he blinked. Optimus put a servo on Jazz's shoulder, 

"They will be fine,"

Jazz looked down at Mazikeen, 

"I need her to be,"

Optimus nodded, 

"As do I, we all do,"
