“Wow… That was a sad story Optimus. But at least this Megatron was defeated, right?” Twilight asked Optimus who lowered his head and shook it. “Negative Twilight Sparkle. That is only the beginning of my tale. There is FAR more to the story.” He said. Pinkie Pie then ran out of the room only to return with a couple of boxes of tissues. “Then were going to need these.” She said as she handed everypony a box. Optimus nodded and continued his tale.

“It had been two earth years since we had defeated Megatron. In that time, we had joined with the humans in forming a special forces team, codename, N.E.S.T., and our task was to eliminate any and all Decepticons still on earth. We had also managed to gain more Autobot Allies. My Autobots had went to a country named China in search of a rumored Decepticon sighting with N.E.S.T.. The rumor turned out to be true, as a Human construction vehicle transformed into a massive Decepticon with the strength to burst through highways without even flinching. It soon became to much for the Autobots to handle, so N.E.S.T. flew me over the city and deployed me out into the air. As I drove out and transformed into my Robot mode, I radioed my Autobots, telling them I would handle this. I soon made my way to the Decepticon and jumped at him as he destroyed the road I was on. I had managed to damage him as he soon lost control and drove into an abandoned factory. Ironhide and myself walked in to finish the job, and we asked him if he had any last words. What he said surprised us.

‘This is not your planet to rule… The Fallen shall rise again…’

“After hearing this message and terminating the Decepticon, we made our way back to N.E.S.T. headquarters. It was there I was brought in for questioning by the humans, and told relayed the message the Decepticon had told us to them. Soon after asking what that meant and replying with an unknown answer, we found out that the base had been attacked by Decepticons, stealing the Allspark shard that was used to destroy Megatron. I then left the base and radioed Bunblebee, telling him to bring Sam to my position. I met with Sam the next day, who wasnt to happy to leave this place he called college. I informed Sam of our situation, and that the human government had begun to show signs of distrust. I had asked him to come with me, to show that there were still humans that could trust the Autobots, but he declined, saying he wasn’t needed. However, we needed him, more than he knew.

"Sam had soon been kidnapped by the Decepticons as according to Bumblebee, knowledge from the Allspark had gotten into his mind when a sliver of the cube got stuck to his shirt and he had only recently found it. When we stormed where the Decepticons were interrogating Sam, we had made the discovery that the Decepticons had used the Allspark shard to bring Megatron back to life and had rebuilt him. We managed to save Sam and his friends who were with him at the time from the Decepticons and made our way to the forest. However, Megatron had followed in his new alternate mode and blasted at me, separating me and Sam from the rest of the Autobots. Soon, Megatron, and two of his Decepticons had arrived and begun to attack me as I attempted to defend Sam. It was then Megatron had managed to kick me in my face, destroying my battle mask completely. After launching me feet away from them, Megatron laughed and spoke to me,

‘Is the survival of our race not worth the life of one single human?’

"I got on one knee catching my breath and stared Megatron and his Decepticons down, responding,

"‘Youll never stop at one…. ILL TAKE YOU ALL ON!!!’

"I then converted both of my arms into twin swords and charged, slicing through the three Decepticons with everything I had. I managed to cut one of their arms off, using it as a weapon as I managed to knock him back with it, then tossing it aside, I went for the largest one there, and after converting my swords into hooks, managed to rip his entire face in two. I looked around in fear hoping Sam was alright. However, Megatron had snuck up behind me and managed to impale my spark, soon firing right through me, destroying my circuits. As I fell down, I spotted Sam watching the entire time. The last thing I remembered was telling him to run…

"I soon awoke in the middle of the desert, with tarps covering me. I began to stand up, finding Sam there in front of me. I looked down at him, and released it was him who had managed to bring me back. However, before we could rejoice, we were attacked by none other than… The Fallen. He managed to steal something out of my chest, which I soon found it to be the Great Matrix of Leadership. I knew I was the only one who could defeat The Fallen, but I was too weak to go after him. However, it turns out, one of the old ones from the early days of the war, had joined our side and had fought in the battle before my resurrection. He soon gave his life in order for me to use his parts to battle Megatron and The Fallen. Ratchet then had the parts attached to me, giving me the power of flight, as well as a new battle mask. I nodded to my Autobots, and flew off towards one of the pyramids, which I found out had a machine inside it that was gonna be used to destroy the earth’s Sun, and use the remains to create Energon to refuel Cybertron. However, the process would doom the earth as well.

"I managed to shoot at the machine, destroying it as Megatron and The Fallen attacked me. I managed to kick The Fallen off of me and landed, converting my arm into a sword as I battled Megatron, damaging much of him to the point of twisting his arm cannon back on itself, pointing it towards his face, and blasted part of it clean off, before I then used my new flight tech to blast him out of the arena, critically damaged. I then turned my attention towards The Fallen who kicked part of my armor off. I returned the favor by taking his war staff and twisting it around his face, revealing its insides. He tried to escape, but before he could, I reached through his back, grabbing his spark, and pulling it out of him, ending his miserable life.

"The next day, my Autobots and I rode with the humans on one of their aircraft carriers back to their part of the world. I walked over towards Sam and thanked him for saving my life. He replied back, saying you’re welcome, and thanks for believing in him.

"We continued our hunt for the Decepticons for the next two years, and as the Decepticon threat went down, we began to help in human affairs. We soon received word about a project in a country called Russia, and went there with N.E.S.T. team instantly as soon as we heard word about it being alien. Shortly after we arrived, I felt a disturbance in the ground below. I set out to find the cause, only for a massive Cybertronian worm, known as a Driller, to burst out of the abandoned structure attacking me and my Autobots. I transformed instantly, and my new trailer had transformed as well, becoming a battle platform for me as I grabbed a sword and shield from there and gave chase. I soon sliced off one of its tentacles, causing it to drop the item it stole from the building. However, before we could drive it away, the Driller revealed its Master to us, calling me out by name. I knew then and there that one of the Decepticons Bounty Hunters, Shockwave, had arrived to help defeat us once and for all.

"However, that battle was not to happen that day. Shockwave then retreated with his Driller, leaving the object they had taken from the building behind. I located the object and realized it belonged to an old Autobot Space Craft from long ago. We returned to N.E.S.T. with the piece of the Space Craft, to question why we were not told that Russia had this part, as we were promised to know all info that the humans knew about us. It turned out that this was something that was beyond top secret that the only humans who did know were sworn to never tell it to anyone, human, or Autobot. Thankfully, one of the humans did decide to tell us. This one was actually one of the humans who first explored the Space Craft. It turned out this Autobot Space Craft was the ARK, a craft carrying a special cargo that would of helped us win the war back on Cybertron, along with its creator, Sentinel Prime.

"We soon undertook a mission to head towards the earth’s moon, as that was where the ARK had crash landed years ago. Myself and Ratchet arrived there, where we soon located the ARK and broke into it. We were able to find five pillars, the technology that Sentinel had made, as well as Sentinel himself, in a hibernation like state as he had ran out of energon.

"We brought Sentinel Prime back to earth with us, where I soon took the Matrix of Leadership and placed it inside his Spark, returning him to us. However, Sentinel attacked me out of defense not knowing where he was or what was happening. We managed to calm him down and explain to him what has happened in the time he down. After he scanned himself a new Alternate form for earth, Sentinel and I journeyed to the middle of nowhere so he could see the planet to which we now called home. I soon tried to return leadership to Sentinel by handing him the Matrix, but he refused, being that he was on unfamiliar territory now, while me and my Autobots had been here for years. Thus, I became his leader.

"We soon found out that there were more than five pillars that were on the moon. There were hundreds of thousands of them, removed from the ship, as was found out by Sam. It turned out the Decepticons had removed the pillars from the ARK until further orders. However, what didn’t make sense was why did they remove the pillars and not Sentinel, as he was the only one who could use the pillars… until we remembered that Sentinel was offline during that time and needed to be brought back. Sentinel soon revealed that he knew the Decepticons raided the ARK, as he had struck a deal… with Megatron. Without warning, Sentinel struck down Ironhide, killing him with Cosmic Rust. He then raided N.E.S.T. and took back the remaining five pillars. I arrived too late and came to the wreckage of what was left of Sentinel’s attack. Unable to believe Sentinel would do this, I tracked him down, only to watch as Sentinel used the pillars to open a space bridge to the moon, allowing hundreds of Decepticons to jump through and terrorize earth. I battled Sentinel for a few minutes, before he got the upper hand on me. But he spared me, telling me I would see the errors of my ways.

"Sentinel soon sent a message out to all of earth, saying that they do not wish to harm them, only to take elements from earth to rebuild their home planet of Cybertron, and would only follow the peace terms if my Autobots and I were banned from the planet. The humans agreed to his terms, and soon we were heading towards an Autobot Spaceship that arrived a few months after the defeat of the Fallen, carrying a team of Autobots called The Wreckers, a trio of Autobots who have no problem fighting Decepticons, going as far as to rip them apart without a care. I met with Sam there, who began asking me if we had a plan to return to earth with more troops. However, I sensed that the Decepticons were using Sam to get info out of us. I told him we had no plan. I turned and walked towards the ship, telling Bumblebee to say his good byes to his old friend. We soon boarded the ship and launched into space. However, we hid away in the ships rockets as they detached from it, falling back towards earth.

"We made our way towards the city of Chicago where the Decepticons were setting up base to bring Cybertron to earth. The Decepticons wanted to raid earth for elements to rebuild our home. However, they only needed one element, one only found there… Humans. We made our way into the city, only for Shockwave’s Driller to attack us, causing me to lose my trailer. The Wreckers begun to distract it as I made my way towards my trailer, as it contained my personal Flight Tech Armor. I grabbed my armor and went air born, just in time as the Driller was taking down a building full of humans. I began blasting it to pieces as the humans escaped the building. However, I soon crashed into some construction equipment, getting tangled up. I hung there as the Wreckers made their way up to me to break me loose. They soon freed me, just in time as My Autobots were about to be executed by the Decepticons. I flew down there, blasting the Decepticons to molten slag, eventually morphing my arms into swords as I sliced their limps and heads off, eventually making my way towards Shockwave as I punched my way through his face, ripping out his one eye.

"However, Sentinel attacked me as Bumblebee destroyed the main pillar, closing the space bridge as Cybertron was destroyed. Sentinel and I fought our way towards a bridge as he once again gained the upper hand, soon ripping my entire arm off. However, before he could land the final blow, Megatron came out of nowhere, blasting Sentinel. Megatron then turned to me and asked where I would be without him… frowning, I told him it was time to find out as I activated my battle mask. I then grabbed one of my weapons I fought Sentinel with, knocking Megatron’s shotgun away as I plunged it deep into his head, yanking both the weapon and his head out, ending his life at last. I then grabbed Megatron’s shotgun and turned towards Sentinel, who was begging for mercy, and begun to explain why he had to betray the Autobots. I simply told him he never betrayed us… He betrayed himself. I then pulled the trigger, blasting his spark, then his face, ending his rotten life. I then turned to the humans as they approached the remains, as I told them that no matter what, we would never abandon this planet and its people…
