TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Confronting a Decepticon* Okay, that’s it. *Pulls out something*
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Looks over* [Y/N], what’s that in your hand?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Pulled out a Cybertronian-sized grenade and pulls the pin out with between their denta* Catch.
[They tossed it to the Decepticon.]
TFA!Lugnut: *Quickly catches the grenade* Oh…
[The grenade explodes in his faceplate.]
TFA!Lugnut: *Covered in dark ashes and collapses to the ground*
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Looks at them in disapproval* Was that necessary?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Optimus, there is a time and place to pull such a stunt like I just did. All I committed was shutting him up. Too chatty about Megatron.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Still, you didn’t have to do that.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: It was either that or call in an airstrike on him.
Reincarnated Prime to OG Prime, whenever an inconvenience happens:
[NOTE]: Do not ever pull the pin using your teeth. It could cause dental injuries or tooth loss. Especially don’t try this at home.
Canon Optimus Prime: Kind, Responsible (to some degree; depends on continuity), a “Father Figure”; Always seeing Good in everyone, and someone whose presence is by you. Who always puts others first then himself. Would fold you any means necessary.
Reincarnated!Prime (a.k.a. [Y/N] being Optimus Prime): Will fuck shit up if you look at them the wrong way (especially if you’re a Decepticon, a corrupted mech, or a Quintesson). A hardened, tired figure who’s fixing issues based on their TF knowledge. Someone who needs to tone down since the Prime’s spirit is with them 25/8. However, they would never hurt their team, the faction they’re now responsible to lead. Also puts others first, and then themselves. Same thing: would fold you any means necessary, but ten times worse.
(I mean…I did loosely based [Y/N] on Ghost. Since, you need some knowledge in combat to survive in a universe of alien robots feuding against each other.)
That’s the difference between canon O.P. and reincarnated O.P.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Reading through some library books they borrowed* Primus, they even wrote a history book about the 2020s.
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Sitting next to them* Any accurate information from your home?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: There’s little differences but nothing too drastic. “Labubu Fashion”, “Stanley Cup Craze”, and the infamous two numbers.
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Reads over the last part* “6-”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Hushes him* Shhhhh! No. Don’t say it. I’m afraid there’s still Gen Alpha people around in this universe, alive. We cannot trigger their muscle memory.
OG!TFA!O.P.: [Y/N], I’m a spirit. It’s highly unlikely for anyone to hear me.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Vents* Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
OG!TFA!O.P.: “6-7”.
[The Next Morning]
[On the T.V.]
“We interrupt this program to address the sudden resurgence of the infamous, viral trend from what is called the “Worst 20s”, 6-7.”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Glares at him* What did I say, Prime?
OG!TFA!O.P.: “We cannot trigger their muscle memory.”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Mhm…Now we have suffer for months until it dies down. And stays dead.
[A/N]: Forgive me. I apologize for bringing in the portion of brainrot.
Of finding out what all of this is for (what all of this was for)
It's you and me
And everywhere we go, we're leading to an open door
What all of this was for
We've made our mistakes, the good and bad days
But nothing really breaks if I got you
Look at the sky when you go outside
And know there is nothing
To keep me back from you (ah)
I've got dreams
Of finding out what all of this is for
It's you and me (and know there is nothing)
And everywhere we go, we're leading to an open door
To keep me back (keep me back, keep me back)
From you (keep me back, keep me back, keep me back)
To keep me back (keep)
From you (oh, oh)
To keep me back (keep me back, keep me back)
From you (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

“Where am I? Am I…”
???: Welcome, [Y/N].
“Wait, Alpha Trion? How? I thought you were a fictional character where I’m from.”
Alpha Trion: I understand you’re perplexed of the situation. My brothers and sisters are appointing you to break the cycles of errors made by Optimus Prime.
“What? I’m confused. Why are you appointing me? I’m human, literally not qualified for the role. Maybe I’m dreaming all of this…I need to wake up.”
Alpha Trion: That is not possible, [Y/N]. You were in an accident back in your world.
“Accident? I…don’t remember how I died.”
Alpha Trion: You will remember someday, my child. As of now: Primus, the Primes and I chose you to fill in Optimus’ role. To break cycles caused by overlooked issues.
“…Forgive me, but are you hearing yourself? I’m…well, not really human anymore…I don’t think I’m “Prime” material for this kind of responsibility.”
???: Of course you’re “Prime material”. We’ve watched you since the day you were emerged.
“Alchemist? Who else is with us?”
Alchemist: Prima, Solus, even Megatronus. He’s right behind you.
Megatronus: Greetings.
Alchemist: Rarely comes out to greet anyone.
“Huh. So, do I have to replace Optimus or Orion when being reincarnated?”
Alpha Trion: You will be taking over his frame. Their spirits will guide you of the worlds they experience in.
Solus: You’ll get the hang of things, [Y/N]. Plus, it would be fun to see a former human as a Cybertronian.
Alpha Trion: Are you willing to take this opportunity to break the cycles?
“…If it helps me guide my way through this kind of purgatory, I accept.”
Alpha Trion: Okay…Your journey starts now.
[(A/N): Hello! I started a series of the [Reader] being Isekai’d to the TF continuities and becomes Prime himself.]
[Reblogs helps creators and creates for more content]
[SYNOPSIS]: Halloween has finally arrived in the TFA universe, and [Y/N] teaches Optimus about the holiday. Oh, and also confronting his past demons.
[PLATONIC]
[WARNING]: Mild cursing, somewhat canonical violence and knife throwing/stabbing.
[A/N]: 🎃Happy Halloween!💀 Hope you enjoy this special from the TPOTP(S) series.
[MASTERLIST]
[Three days before Halloween officially comes. In the living area, alone was the temporary Prime who has been helping with some appropriate decor for the festivities.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Halloween is one of my favorite holidays back home. The decorations, the costumes, candy and especially the scares.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Why do humans get enjoyment from being scared?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: It’s the adrenaline. The excitement, anticipation. Think like you’re expecting a surprise birthday party planned by loved ones.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Well…We, Cybertronians don’t actually celebrate these kinds of milestones.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Better fix that since I know Sari’s birthday will be coming soon. We should also try dressing up.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Of what? I never actually thought of “disguising” for this holiday.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Maybe something easygoing. How about a “haunted firetruck”? Or Captain America?
OG!TFA!O.P.: Captain America?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I’ll explain that later.
[Then, Halloween finally arrived. Most of the team were at a pumpkin patch to pick up Sari’s pumpkin to carve on it.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Looking up at the spider decoration* Oh, the incident…
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Looks over their shoulder* I…I think we should get going.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Yeah, let’s get the pumpkin and head back to base.
[After purchasing a new pumpkin (the last one was squished by Bulkhead’s servo), the group head back to their base. When Bumblebee, Bulkhead and Sari got fully dressed, they head to the crowded streets for trick-or-treating. Unexpectedly, “Prime” is also tagging along and even dressed up. They were adorned with a paint job resembling the iconic red, white and blue motifs and stars to fit as Captain America.]
TFA!Bumblebee: You actually tagged along, Prime.
TFA!Bulkhead: And dressed up.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Well…I thought it was a good opportunity to learn about this Earth holiday.
[Over the few hours, Sari (dressed up as Optimus) was reassuring both Bumblebee and Bulkhead that Halloween is all about pretending to be somebody else.]
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Looks at [Y/N]* You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Shrugs* Memory lane, nostalgia.
[Then, Bumblebee started freaking out after Sari said trick-or-treat to the first house they stopped at.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Senses a disturbance and looks up* Oh no…
OG!TFA!O.P.: What is it?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Be prepared, Prime. *In fighter mode*
[After walking a few blocks down, Bumblebee was paranoid from seeing sights of a giant arachnid-like creature stalking their every move.]
Sari: Ah, trust me, Bumblebee. There are no giant spiders on this planet.
TFA!Bumblebee: Y’know, maybe it came from some other planet.
TFA!Bulkhead: Huge alien life-form, coming to Earth? You got to be kiddin’. *Laughs a bit* …Oh, right. Us.
[In an ironic twist, Sari gets snatched up in webbing. Bumblebee and Bulkhead didn’t pay attention until she screamed.]
TFA!Bumblebee: Sari!
TFA!Bulkhead: Sari?!
???: Keep away from the girl.
[Costumes off, fighter modes activated. Bumblebee transforms his servo to his stinger tool and aims at the arachnid creature, charges and fires at it. The charge struck the web and Sari fell, Bumblebee catches her on time. The spider-napper was about to escape but gets confronted by Bulkhead’s wrecking ball. It gets surrounded by the Autobots.]
TFA!Bumblebee: Don’t move. *Aims his stringer at it* I want to make sure the big guy sees you this time.
[In a surprise, the spider transforms into a figure. Tall, dark and radiates potential danger.]
???: You wouldn’t hurt a helpless female bot, now would you, boys~?
TFA!Bumblebee: Who are you?
TFA!Bulkhead: What are you?
Sari: Duh, she’s a girl.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *In a fighting stance* A venomous monster is all I’m seeing.
???: *Struts over to Bulkhead* My friends call me “Blackarachnia”~
TFA!Bulkhead: *In a daze from her flirtatious manner*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Realization hits them* *Gasps* Bulkhead, get away from her-!
[Too late. Blackarachnia hisses up at him and injects her sharp appendages into his chest plating. High on electric shock, Bulkhead became unconscious and his frame falls back.]
TFA!Bumblebee: Hey! *Runs up with his stinger out and tries to strike Blackarachnia*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: No, wait, Bumblebee!
[He also gets stung by her and passes out.]
Sari: What did you do to them? *Uses her Key to revive Bulkhead first*
[While she tries to fix him, Blackarachnia was about to approach the young kid.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Shoots their grappling claw at the attacker and yanks her away from Sari* Sari, get away from her, now!
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Glares at them* Optimus…So, the rumors are true.
[As Blackarachnia activates her temporary stinger to free herself from the grappling hook, a stray dagger was thrown at her. She blocks the dagger but gets embedded in her other servo.]
TFA!Blackarachnia: Ow! *Looks at the dagger* What the…
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: You chose trick than “treat”. There’s more where that came from.
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Surprised by the dagger throw* Where did that come from?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Mumbles under their tone* Made them when you weren’t looking.
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Pulls out the dagger from her servo and hisses* That was a dirty move. *Shoots at them with Bumblebee’s stinger*
[They dodged the blast by a mere second. Blackarachnia uses her temporary stinger to disconnect the rope from her ankle.]
Sari: Hey! That’s Bumblebee’s thing.
TFA!Blackarachnia: Don’t get your pigtails in a bunch, kid. I’m just borrowing it.
[Before [Y/N] could activate their extinguisher, the compartment was crushed by Blackarachnia’s strengthened grasp.]
TFA!Blackarachnia: Much as you love to give me a face full of foam. *Grabs at their neck and hoist them up against an apartment building*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Getting choked by the assailant*
TFA!Blackarachnia: And yes, Miss. “State The Obvious”, I borrowed the big guy’s strength too-
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Easily yanks off her servo and head-butts her faceplate*
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Groans and hisses in pain* *Backs up and held her faceplate*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Glares at her* That’s for my team, you conniving jerk.
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Hissing while easing the stinging sensation from the head-butt* I don’t remember you being this aggressive. Whatever. *Manages to grab them and throws their frame across the street*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Crashes into another apartment building*
[Sari was rushing over to them, but was quickly snatched up by the enemy’s webbing.]
TFA!Blackarachnia: Change of plans: you’re coming with me.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Quickly recovered* Sari! ‘Nia, you… *Picks up their shield prop and chucks it at her*
[Far in the distance, the durable shield was flown right at Blackarachnia in the back-strut.]
“GAH!”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Itsy Bitsy Bitch…
OG!TFA!O.P.: [Y/N]!!!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: What? She was escaping. Needed a long-range device, too.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Still, that was uncalled for. And Sari was with her.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I’m also worried. Just be glad I didn’t shoot her if you didn’t have weapons built in your frame…Yet.
[Prime and [Y/N] chases after the kidnapper and hopped over each skyscraper and other taller buildings.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N] + OG!TFA!O.P.: Sari/Sari!
Sari: Ooh, you’re in trouble now. My friend, Optimus Prime is gonna take his axe and chop you into itsy-bitsy spider burdens-
[The techno-organic shuts Sari’s mouth up with her webbing.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Saw that happened* You did not just gagged her.
[Blackarachnia climbed up another skyscraper and when she looked back, a pede kicked her faceplate.]
TFA!Blackarachnia: AHH! *Holds her face* Again?! Seriously?!!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Quickly extracts Sari back to them with their remaining grappling claw* *Sets her down and rips off the gag* Are you okay, Sari? Nothing else hurts?
Sari: 👍 *Gasps* Optimus, look out!
[Blackarachnia comes in with some roundhouse kicks. The Prime leader gets back up and tries to punch her, but she blocked the attack and hops back. Axe out, and the fight continues while the creepy-crawler dodges every swing.]
TFA!Blackarachnia: Hahaha! I know all your moves, Optimus. Pure textbook Autobot academy. *Catches their axe*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Swiftly pulls out a combat knife and stabs her in the leg*
[She gasped by the painful jab, barely realizing the situation had flipped.]
OG!TFA!O.P.: Again with the knives.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Sorry, habits.
[Blackarachnia pulls out the knife from her leg while hissing from the wound and then throws a punch at them.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Grabs her fist*
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Surprised by the grab* Ah…?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Glares at her* You play too much, ‘Nia. *Throws her over the other side of the roof*
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Crashes hard* *Groans*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Sari, stay put. And cover your ears. It’s the adults talking now.
Sari: *Nods and covers her ears*
[They steadily stalk over to Blackarachnia as she gets back on her pedes.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Been a long time, Elita-1.
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Looks up at them* You knew?
OG!TFA!O.P.: Elita-1?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I figured. There’s nobody else closer to hating me than you and Sentinel. Back in Aracha 7, you were trapped with those spiders before the both of us could rush back to get you. We couldn’t pick up your Energy Signature because we didn’t know your organic half masked over it. If I’d known, I would’ve-
TFA!Blackarachnia: What? Brought me back to Cybertron to be dismantled and examined on some lab table?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: ‘Nia, let me finish. If I’d known you’re still alive, you could’ve come to me for help when I thought I lost you. We thought you were gone.
Blackarachnia: *Scoffs* You know well how that would end. You’ll report to the Autobot council and they would’ve locked me up, experiment on my…hideous form.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: ‘Nia, I wasn’t talking about those A-graded assholes! I was referring to me, your old friend who should have still gone back to the caves and kept searching for you. Forget about the feuding factions, think of the mech you would’ve turned to. We could have fix this. I could’ve helped you, yet you sided with the ‘Cons, instead.
TFA!Blackarachnia: At least they know where I stand.
[In a split nanoklik, Blackarachnia traps them in her webbing as she hurries over to Sari. Then, she yanked the Key from her neck.]
Sari: Hey! Give that back!
TFA!Blackarachnia: No way, kid. If anything can purge my organic half, it’s this. *Opens up a key hole on her chest compartment*
OG!TFA!O.P.: Blackarachnia, no!
[She inserts the Key and sparks of energy surged around her.]
BOOM!!!
[Waves of power rippled out and crosses over the Detroit city. The night sky turned rotten as organic matter depletes of needed energy. As a horrific realization, that includes humans.]
Sari: *Starts aging rapidly and losing color* What’s…happening…?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: No, Sari! *Manages to rip off the web* ‘Nia, wait!
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Picks up Sari and holds her over the edge of the roof* I’ve already waited, for a thousand stellar-cycles!
[Blackarachnia throws Sari off the building.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]:
SARI!!!
[Rushes over the edge and spots her handing on a flag pole, barely gripping on for dear life. On cue, Bumblebee and Bulkhead arrived to the scene.]
TFA!Bumblebee: We got Sari! Get the spider-bot.
[As Bulkhead threw Bumblebee up in the air, Sari lost her grip and starts falling. The young bot was able to catch her and both landed back on the ground, hard.]
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Groaning in pain and feeling weak* *Lands on her knees* What’s happening?
[A surge of more raw energy rippled out around Blackarachnia.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Your Spark can’t live without your organic half. You need to shut off the Key.
TFA!Blackarachnia: *Barely reaches at the Key in her chest area* I…can’t…
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Quintus Prime would hate seeing this… *Reaches out through the field of energy waves and snags the Key out of her*
[After the Key was extracted, the night sky turned back to normal and greenery and foliage grew back. Alive again.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Helps Blackarachnia standing back up* *Looks down at her with sympathy*
TFA!Blackarachnia: …Leave me alone.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Not this time. You need help. I could’ve helped you in a spark-beat if you would’ve just find me back then.
TFA!Blackarachnia: Stop, Optimus. What could you do to fix… *Points at herself* This? Nobody would help a hybrid of an organic monster and former ‘bot.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I still could’ve tried helping you! Saved you…But… *Glares at her* You almost killed Sari and everyone on this planet for something so selfish on your end. *Activates their axe and masks back on* It’s on sight, “Elita”. *Pushes away and throws the axe her*
[She manages to catch the axe but was punched in the face by [Y/N]. Optics burning in a bright tone of unrecognizable rage, which the former ‘Bot barely noticed. They dodged her swift attacks, some minor scratches from the eight-legged menace on their frame, yet they got the upper hand. They knocked Blackarachnia down to the ground and pinning her with their weight, straddling her.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Struggling a bit to keep her subdued* If you want to blame someone, it’s Sentinel. He’s responsible for coercing us to Aracha 7 back in the academy.
Blackarachnia: *Struggling more* You left me behind!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I tried to go back for you! Yet, you disappeared and that asshole threw me under the bus!
Blackarachnia: *Froze a bit* Optimus, you…You rarely accuse anyone, even when they’re actually at fault. You don’t even curse at them.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Maybe because after everything that happened between our Amica bonds, I’ve changed.
[The last words were like an unsettling chill down Blackarachnia’s back-strut. [Y/N] got in position with their axe out, positioned above her faceplate.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I’ll see you in Hell, ‘Nia… *Swings down the blade at her face*
OG!TFA!O.P.: [Y/N], that’s enough!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Stops mid-swing* …Oh, shit…I went too far this time.
[While distracted, Blackarachnia kicks them off and leaps off of the roof, disappearing into the Hallow night.]
OG!TFA!O.P.: This time? [Y/N], what did you do before coming here?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Vents* I can’t tell you yet, Optimus. It’s too personal, remember?
[Everyone returned back to the pumpkin patch late that evening.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Crouches down and hands the Key back* Happy Halloween, Sari. Sorry that this night was a disaster.
Sari: It’s okay, Optimus. *Takes her Key back* You saved everyone tonight. And, saw how awesome you looked when fighting.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Yeah, but don’t replicate the knife-throwing. Okay?
Sari: *Thumbs up* You got it, and… *Holds up her Key* Maybe I should give this thing a rest.
TFA!Bumblebee: *Drives in with his busted tires* Think I could persuade you to use it one more time.
Bulkhead: *Joins in* So, who was that bug-bot lady?
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Borrows his frame again* Someone, I never should’ve left behind…

TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Wakes up gasping and venting to calm down* …Not again.
[Reblogs help creators and creates for more content]
[SYNOPSIS]: [Y/N] faces their biggest challenge, Megatron.
[PLATONIC]
[WARNING]: Semi-Canonical Violence, Ratchet with a gun (for protection and used for a short time), Mild Cursing, and Megatron getting humbled.
[MASTERLIST]
[Weeks passed since fighting Blitzwing and Lugnut, everything seemed calm. With the snow storm already approached to the city, accidents can still happen. Everyone was on high alert for the time being.]
[Optimus/[Y/N]’s Habsuite]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Sketching on a blank datapad*
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Leaning against a wall by them* So, how many were there?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: If it’s about my kill count, I’m not proud of what I did back then. They were mainly enemies, opposing guards of dangerous targets. I had no other choice in those times.
OG!TFA!O.P.: [Y/N], I understand. Every bot I’ve met back on Cybertron has a past they’re not proud of, especially veterans from the Great War. I thought it would be better to open up more about your old career to someone who will listen, like Ratchet when he talked about his time.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Vents calmly* You really know what to say about upbringings like mines.
[Alarms blared around the base and the two quickly left their room.]
TFA!Prowl: Security sensors are picking up increased Decepticon signals. Activity levels are higher than anything we seen on Earth.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I figured this would happen. They’re gonna get ready for an invasion. We need to warn the mayor and other officials for possible emergency evacuations.
[Just then, two toy planes flew over the Autobots.]
TFA!Ratchet: *Startled* Incoming! *Blasts one of the planes with his magnetic pulse*
[The toy burst into plastic shrapnel. Incomes Bumblebee and Sari emerging into the scene holding controllers.]
TFA!Bumblebee: Hey! You made me lose the dog fight!
Sari: Whatcha do that for?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Sari, ‘Bee, we’re on edge now since we just found out the Decepticons are mobilizing for a full-scale assault.
TFA!Bumblebee: And we’re supposed to defend the entire planet, how? I hate to be a downer but five of against all of them? The odds aren’t exactly in our favor.
Sari: Uh, hello? Well, what am I? Invisible? I make six.
TFA!Bulkhead: *Pops an idea* Hey, maybe the Dinobots can help.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Quirks up a brow-ridge* Really?
TFA!Ratchet: *Looks at Bulkhead in confusion*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I thought the Dinobots were destroyed after what happened. Were they?
TFA!Bulkhead: You told me you were gonna tell him. He told me he’s gonna tell you.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Feigning confusion* Tell me what, exactly?
TFA!Bulkhead: Go on. It’s Prime, he’ll understand. *Sneaks away*
[Off scene is when Prowl confessed that the Dinobots are still in operation and are hidden on a private island, away from civilization. After he finished…Nothing. No yelling nor any display of frustration at the sudden revelation.]
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Fuming in anger* YOU STOLE THE DINOBOTS AND TOOK THEM TO AN ISLAND?!?!!!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Ignoring the ringing in their audial sensor* I see. Prowl, Bulkhead, you could have told me this sooner.
TFA!Bulkhead: So, you’re not mad at us?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Oh, I’m mad. You still should have told me about this. It’s obvious insubordination. Disobeying the original task. But, that’s not important now. Everyone is depending on us to protect them from the enemy.
TFA!Bulkhead: Well, maybe it’s not a bad thing. What Prowl did. Oh, we could use it to our advantage. I mean, they kind of owe us.
TFA!Prowl: Bulkhead and I can go to the Dinobots and ask for their help against the Decepticons.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Vents* Okay, but I’m coming with you. To make sure the task is done, accordingly. These kinds of mistakes are something we can’t afford. Too much hangs in the balance to which is why we need to enforce better security measures on every level. I’m afraid there’s no choice for this first act. Sari, your Key.
Sari: What? *Holding her toy plane with the Key stuck on it*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: It’s not safe in your care anymore, Sari. You’re also not safe either if it’s with you. We need to guard it from here on out. After all, it’s not a toy to mess with.
Sari: That’s not fair, it’s mine. The Allspark chose me and I’ve done a pretty good job protecting it so far. *Yanks out her Key from the plane*
[It flew out of her hands as it shoots up in the air and stops. Falling down and hits on top of Ratchet’s helm.]
Sari: Oops. My bad.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I’m sorry, Sari. That proves my point. The situation could endanger us, everyone. It’s not about you, it’s about the future we’re trying to protect. *Crouches down and holds their servo out to her*
Sari: No! *Hides the Key behind her* I’m in charge of the Key. It’s my job, not yours.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Has a solemn expression as they stand back up* Ratchet, take it from her.
TFA!Ratchet: Prime, maybe we could-
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Ratchet, that’s an order. Don’t make this any harder than it should have.
TFA!Ratchet: *Looks defeated* Yes, sir. *Activates his magnet and yanks the Key out of Sari’s grasps* *Has the Key now*
Sari: *Starts tearing up* Why don’t you trust me? I trusted you! *Cries and runs off*
TFA!Bumblebee: Sari! *Glares at Prime* What’s your damage, Prime? Sari’s been helping us since the day we got here. She’s a part of this team.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I’m sorry, there’s no other way to protect her. And, if she got involved with us trying to stop the upcoming attacks, she’ll be a target. A liability.
TFA!Bumblebee: *Stunned by the last comment* Is that so? Considering the fact that we’re stuck on this planet, outnumbered, with no idea how we’re gonna beat an army of Decepticons ready to fry our circuits in any second, I would exactly call you a liability for a leader. I’m gonna find Sari.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Bumblebee, get back here! Bumblebee! Bumblebee!!!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: He can’t hear you, remember? Just let him go. I’m not even gonna contact him to return back since he won’t listen and is trying to comfort Sari.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Are you serious? Since when did insubordination acceptable, [Y/N]? We have a job to do.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: And I know what I’m doing. You’re a team leader, but lack the experience when it comes to trust between teammates. Ratchet, take the Key and head for the ship. We need to protect the Allspark just in case the Decepticons try to make a move. Oh, one last thing. *Hands him some protection*
TFA!Ratchet: *Stares at the self-defense tool* This is a gun.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I know. Ask questions later. Bulkhead, Prowl, show me the Dinobot island.
[The scene cuts to the canon cuts of where Sari was kidnapped by Blackarachnia; Ratchet has to drive off course and away to loose Blitzwing. The Field-Tech even shot the gun given by “Prime” for emergencies, but still somehow lost the Key to the Triple-Changer. Now, the next scene cuts to [Y/N], Bulkhead and Prowl already on Dinobot island to recruit the Dinobots for reinforcements.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Trailing behind Prowl and Bulkhead* Prime, I feel awful from before.
OG!TFA!O.P.: You had to do what’s best for the everyone in the future.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: The future would still have scars. What I did to Sari was unforgivable. I may have been a harden lieutenant and taken out lives in my old life, but I still have humility. How can she forgive us after what we did back there? Even I wouldn’t treat my old team like that. Not even to a child.
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Looks saddened* You have a valid point, [Y/N]. Maybe after this, we’ll need to apologize to her and everyone.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Nods* Yeah, good call on that.
[The three searched every inch of the island and haven’t found signs of the Dinobots yet.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: We covered every inch of the island and no signs of the Dinobots.
TFA!Bulkhead: Maybe they left…
[The ground shook from beneath the three and their attentions draw to the approaching Dinobots.]
TFA!Bulkhead: …Or not.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Just tell them we come in peace.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: That approach may not work, let me try negotiating with them. Dinobots, we came here to ask for your help. We’ll return the favor with anything you need in the future after helping us.
[The Dinobots transform into their bot modes and holding out their weapons.]
TFA!Grimlock: *Holding his sword out* INTRUDERS! Dinobot, destroy!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Prowl, Bulkhead, what did you teach the Dinobots that I’m not aware of?
TFA!Prowl: Let me talk to them. I’ve helped them before. They know me.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Alright, you know them well than me, so be careful.
[Prowl nods and walks up to the trio with cautious steps.]
TFA!Prowl: Grimlock, there is no need to fear us. We helped you defeat Meltdown, remember?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Looks over at Bulkhead* Meltdown?
TFA!Prowl: *Points at them* Truck robot, good. Our friend.
TFA!Grimlock: *Looks at “Prime” with skepticism* Hmm friend? *Looks over at his other Dinobot friends*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Grimlock, evil bots are about to invade this planet and destroy everything in their path. We need to join forces to stop the invasion by fighting together.
TFA!Grimlock: Dinobot’s not any robot to fight. Dinobots destroy robots!
[The Dinobots transform back to their Dino-modes.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: You do realize Dinobots are robots. *Receives a comm with Ratchet and answers* Ratchet?
TFA!Ratchet: “Prime, it’s Ratchet! The Key’s been stolen!”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: WHAT?! How?
TFA!Ratchet: “Couple of Decepticon scum ambushed me on the way to the ship. I tried to fight them off but-”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Did you at least used the firearm I gave you for this exact reason?
TFA!Ratchet: “I did. I need better aiming.”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Okay, just get to the ship and protect the Allspark. We’ll meet you there. *Gets off the comm-link* Bad news, the Decepticons got the Key. We need to roll out.
TFA!Prowl: But, what about the Dinobots?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: We’re on our own.
[Scene cuts to the Dinobots fighting each other. [Y/N], Bulkhead and Prowl follow back to where they came from.]
TFA!Bulkhead: So, Boss-bot, what do we do now?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: We’ll think of something. *Places their servo over where their Spark is* I’ll think of something.
[Then cuts to the Sumdac tower as Bumblebee arrived at the scene. He saw smoke coming from first level and spotting one of the most deadly Decepticons they encountered since the beginning.]
TFA!Bumblebee: *Comms everyone* Autobot alert, Autobot alert! Anybody out there?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Picks up the comm* “Bumblebee, it’s Prime. What’s your status?”
TFA!Bumblebee: Trouble at Sumdac tower. It begins with a Star- and ends with a -scream
[Now, the scene changes to the three in their alt. modes driving quickly.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: That’s just great. Bumblebee, do not engage and wait for backup.
TFA!Bumblebee: “But, Sari could be in danger.”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Mentally scolding themselves* Fuck, I forgot. She’s not in the tower.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Where she is, then?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Starts with Black- and ends with -arachnia.
OG!TFA!O.P.: WHAT?!!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Don’t panic too much. She’s a cunning kid, I know. Believe me when I know how your universe plays out.
[“Prime”, Bulkhead and Prowl arrived at the tower and sees Bumblebee on the edge while spotting Starscream about to shoot him.]
TFA!Prowl: *Wary in his tone* Is that Starscream, with Bumblebee?
TFA!Bulkhead: Guess he didn’t listen to you.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: We need to save him.
[Just then, the tower start glowing red and something crashes up through the top level. Hovering above is none other than the Decepticon warlord, Megatron.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Glares up at him* So, that’s Megatron.
OG!TFA!O.P.: You’re not scared?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Optimus, I may not show my fear but I’m scared shitless nonetheless. No matter how times I have to confront bad guys.
[The lord himself start descending from the tower.]
TFA!Bulkhead: Is that who I think it is?
TFA!Prowl: How is that possible?
[Megatron lands in front of everyone and he glared at the three.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Readies their axe* Megatron…
TFA!Megatron: I don’t have time for civil talks. If you have anything to say, make your time count.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Straightens their backstrut* Last time we faced each other, you blew up from our ship. I know mechs like you don’t go down easily.
TFA!Megatron: Seems your intuition is correct, Autobot.
TFA!Prowl: *Looks at them* You knew he was alive?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I had a hunch and couldn’t prove my suspicion. Everything I learned and unlearn the wrongs of the academy, Megatron doesn’t back down without a fight. *Puts on their mask*
[Bulkhead swings his wrecking ball at Megatron, but the Decepticon leader deflects and severs off the weapon.]
TFA!Bulkhead: *About to pounce at Megatron*
TFA!Megatron: *Blocks and swings at Bulkhead*
[Bulkhead flies off to the side and about to crash in a nearby office building but Prime secretly uses their Vector’s shard to create a portal for him. He lands safely back on the snowy ground.]
TFA!Bulkhead: *Confused* I’m…okay?
TFA!Prowl: *Joins in and leaps up* *Throws his shurikens at Megatron*
TFA!Megatron: *Deflects the shurikens with his sword and charges at him*
[Prowl dodges Megatron’s blade, but damages the column of a highway bridge. There, two children were underneath it, about to be crushed.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Acts quickly by transforming their wheels into roller skates*
[With their axe activated as a booster, they sped through on their wheels. Before the debris could harm the kids, they quickly picked them up and away from the mess. They left them back on the ground, shaking.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: It’s not gonna get any safer around here. Go!
[The kids ran off back to safety, screaming in fear. Scene cuts to Prowl trapped under Megatron’s pede, attempting to wiggle out an escape.]
TFA!Megatron: Don’t think I forgotten how you sliced off this arm. *Points down his sword at Prowl* I’ve been waiting 50 stellar-cycles to pay you back.
[As Megatron was about to plunge his blade down at the ninja-bot, an axe was thrown at the lord’s servos. The sword flew out of his grasp and the thrown weapon was drew back to the user with some grappling cables. The very sword stood on the ground in front of them, reflecting their image by its glaring surface.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Seems you have to wait a little longer.
TFA!Megatron: *Glares at them*
[They extend their axe as the temporary Prime masks up. Activating their rocket-powered axe, they swung with all their might against Megatron. Except in an unforeseeable moment, the warlord was able to block their attack and kicks them off.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Crashes into the ground and sword from earlier*
[Before Megatron can retrieve his blade, cables wrapped around his pedes and he falls over. Yet, it was not durable enough as it snaps off his form with the remaining one held by him. He whips them off and Prime flew cross, crashing into a random building.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Pushes off the debris trapping them* Fuck! That bastard! *Leaps out of the building and lands on the ground*
OG!TFA!O.P.: Any plans for this fight?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I’m thinking… *Sprints at Megatron*
TFA!Megatron: *Kicks them in the chassis and sends them flying*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Crashes into a car* *Unmasks and spit out Pink Energon* Damn… *Mask up and gets back up* I’ll never give up the location to the Allspark, Megatron.
TFA!Megatron: I don’t need you for that, Autobot. *Reveals Sari’s Key wrapped around his digit*
[It beams and projects its energy signal to the Allspark’s location.]
TFA!Megatron: The child’s Key will lead me straight to it.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]/OG!TFA!O.P.: NO!/NO!
[They sprints at Megatron to stop him but was punched in the faceplate with the active Key. Powerful to fall and crash into the ground, lying by their fallen teammates.]
TFA!Megatron: To me, my loyal Decepticons!
[As the remaining Decepticons flew over to Megatron, [Y/N] kept still pretending to still be unconscious.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I have an idea on escaping from them.
OG!TFA!O.P.: It’s Vector’s shard.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Yeah, teleporting away from these nutcases.
[On cue, while Megatron eliminates Starscream after his little declaration of having to suffer for 50 stellar-cycles, the Prime activates their shard and creates subtle portals underneath Bulkhead, Prowl and themselves. They all hurriedly sunk below leading into the Sumdac tower.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Sits up and looks around then at Bulkhead and Prowl* Everyone still conscious?
Isaac Sumdac: *Enters into the lobby area* Oh, this is all my fault.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Professor, you had nothing to do with this.
Isaac: But, I did. I rebuilt Megatron.
[The Professor starts explaining how 50 years ago, he found Megatron’s head that crashed by his farm home and reverse engineered his robotic technology to create his own automatons.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Let me get this straight: You created your entire robotic empire based on our worst enemy?
TFA!Bulkhead: You had Megatron all this time, and you never told us?!
Isaac: He tricked me! He told me he was your friend, that he couldn’t face you in his damaged state, but I should keep his existence a secret.
TFA!Prowl: And you trusted him?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: None of that matters now. We need to protect the Allspark from Megatron and his ‘Cons.
TFA!Bulkhead: How… *His kibble shifting from behind* …I’m so banged up I couldn’t even transform into a trash heap.
TFA!Prowl: And without Sari’s Key to repair us, we don’t stand a chance one Decepticon, let alone three.
Isaac: *Thought for a moment* …Sari’s Key, there may be some residual energy in my lab equipment.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Alright, it’s worth a shot. Let’s get Bumblebee down from the roof. I’m sure he could use a jump start, too.
OG!TFA!O.P.: I just hope Ratchet could hold off the Decepticons until we get there.
[Following up, everyone leads up to the lab (damaged and blasted open by Megatron’s revival) and Professor Sumdac starts the repairs right away. Bumblebee was also let back inside from Tempe rooftop.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Secretly lend some of their energy into the equipment*
OG!TFA!O.P.: What are you doing?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Lending some of my Prime powers. They may be fighters, but not built to withstand tense situations. Hopefully it’s not too powerful for them to combust during mid battle.
OG!TFA!O.P.: It better not. We need more to stop the Decepticons from getting their hands on the Allspark.
[It was their turn to be repaired and upgraded with the residual energy in the equipment.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Hooked up with wires and cable to be fixed*
Isaac: That’s the last of it.
[They get unhooked from the equipment.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Flexes their servo* That should do it. At least we’re back on our stabilizing servos.
TFA!Prowl: We weren’t exactly Autobot Academy material to begin with.
TFA!Bulkhead: Guess we really are just repair bots seen as liabilities.
TFA!Bumblebee: Whatcha expect from a bunch of undisciplined, insubordinate, malfunctions anyway?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Vents calmly* Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Prowl…I’m sorry. For everything that happened back in the base. I was more concerned about everyone’s safety that I went out of line and didn’t consider how everyone in the team would feel about the plan from earlier. Sari is never a liability and never was, she was an asset to the team. To us. If it’s alright, maybe teach this academy bot how to repair a few friendships? *Holding their servo out*
[One by one, each teammate cup their servo over Prime’s as they’re on better terms now and silently accepted the apology. Then suddenly, Ratchet comms them.]
TFA!Ratchet: “Prime, Ratchet. Three Decepticons on our tail.”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Comms back* Ratchet, do not engage. Repeat, do not engage. We need to lead the Decepticons off the planet first and keep Earth out of the crossfire.
TFA!Ratchet: “Copy that, Prime. Over and out.” *Gets off the comm-link*
Isaac: Let me come with you.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Professor, it’s too dangerous.
Isaac: But I insist. I am the one responsible for unleashing Megatron in the first place. There must be something I can do.
[Prowl and Bulkhead are suspicious about the Professor now since learning of Megatron’s resurrection, but also worried how he would help them.]
TFA!Bulkhead: How’s he gonna fight Megatron?
TFA!Bumblebee: And what about Sari?
[Gush of wind blasted in their faceplates.]
Sari: What about me? *Standing in front of everyone*
[Their ship has entered the scene hovering in front of the open area of the lab.]
Sari: If you think I’m letting you hear-heads out of my sight, you’re nuts. And I don’t mean the kind that come with bolts.
[Rumble shook beneath their pedes as the Decepticons came back and shoot energy beams and missiles at the tower.]
TFA!Ratchet: No time to argue! Decepticons in targeting range!
[Both Sari and her father were hurriedly picked up and everyone hops on the ship. They flew off and up to the skies attempting to lead the Decepticons away from Earth’s atmosphere. Atlas, the three ‘Cons follow them behind and shot more ammunition at them.]
TFA!Ratchet: Everybody, hold on tight. *Activates extra boost power to the thrusters*
[Everyone flew back from the impact.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Catches Sari and Isaac before slamming against a wall* AH!
Sari & Isaac: Oof!
Isaac: Oh dear, this is all my fault.
Sari: What? It’s not like you built Megatron in your lab or anything…YOU BUILT MEGATRON IN YOUR LAB?!
TFA!Ratchet: On the bright side, now I don’t feel so bad about losing your Key.
[More missiles hit the ship and it starts falling down.]
Repulsion System: Failure
Navigation System: Failure
Stabilizer System: Failure
TFA!Bumblebee: Does that thing ever report any good news? *Falls back*
TFA!Ratchet: Prime, I think we may have to revise that “Lead Them Off Planet” strategy.
[They continue falling and only stabilized to crash into a mountain. The ship is now stuck on a mountain side.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Blinks open their optics* Oh, damn…Is everyone in one piece?
[After reassurances from everyone, a blast rocked their ship.]
TFA!Bulkhead: Not for long.
[The three Decepticons (in their alt. modes) followed them and still blasting at the ship to get the Allspark.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Looks at Sari and her father* Stay with the ship. We’ll hold off the Decepticons as long as we can.
Sari: *Looks at her dad* And then what?
[Already, Team Prime is outside ready to fight with much of their abilities.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: If we go down, we go down fighting, together. And I can’t think of a better band of Autobots I’ve be proud of fighting along side.
TFA!Bumblebee: Not even the Cybertron Elite Guard? ‘Cause I sure wouldn’t mind having them here now.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Autobots, we must protect the Allspark at all cost! *Masks up*
[The battle begins. Each of the teammates chose who they can handle: Bulkhead tackles Lugnut down from the sky while Ratchet, Bumblebee and Prowl strategize to overtake Blitzwing. This leads to Prime fighting Megatron on their own.]
TFA!Megatron: *Shoots at them in his alt. mode*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Somersaults and dodges the blasts* *Body flops onto the snowy ground*
TFA!Megatron: And now nothing can stop me from reaching the Allspark… *As he about to fly off*
[Shot out is the grappling claw and wraps around Megatron’s tail boom.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Not on my watch! *Follows him to the ship*
[As Megatron heads toward the ship, they pull out their axe (as it activates) and throws it straight into one of Megatron’s vents. Gasping in pain while the two fall from the sky and the warlord managed to save himself but Prime crashes down.]
TFA!Megatron: You are merely a distraction, Autobot. As are your pathetic Autobot friends. *Begins transforming back in his root mode*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Already up and charges at Megatron*
[Sari was in the room with the Allspark and hears commotion from outside. Then, crashing in the side is Megatron and Prime fighting.]
TFA!Megatron: Our struggle ends where it began, Autobot-
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Punches hard in his midsection area*
TFA!Megatron: *Felt that punch and…ow* …Ah.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Do you ever shut up when fighting?
TFA!Megatron: *Kicks them off*
[Prime shoots at their grappling claws at Megatron but he catches the ropes and wraps them around the little Prime, too tight to escape.]
TFA!Megatron: This time, the Allspark is mine.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Scrunches up their faceplate* God damn…When was the last time you freshened up? Your intake stinks of old fuel.
TFA!Megatron: *Little annoyed* Are you mocking me, Autobot?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Just humbling you, asshole.
TFA!Megatron: *Less phased* How crude…
[Then, Prime disappears from Megatron’s hold. Liege Maximo’s shard was activated and used as a tool for distraction. They waited up on the ceiling until ambushing Megatron down and kicks him in the faceplate.]
TFA!Megatron: *Stumbles back* You…How?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I’m not spilling anything. And… *Reveals Sari’s Key in their hold* You’re too focused on trying to get the Allspark that you should’ve killed me-!
[Megatron rams into them, loosing the Key but Sari manages to catch it back in her hands.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Grabbing at Megatron’s neck cables*
TFA!Megatron: *Confused by the action* What are you doing?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Trying to strangle you to your deactivation.
TFA!Megatron: *Very annoyed* This is very ridiculous of you, Autobot. *Smacks them to the side*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Crashes into a wall*
Sari: *Blocks in Megatron’s way*
TFA!Megatron: *Grabs the Key from her grasp and pushes her to the side*
Sari: *Falls over* Ow!
TFA!Megatron: *Uses the Key to open the case to the Allspark* I’ve waited 4 million stellar-cycles for this... *Picks up the Allspark* With the power of the Allspark, I will reclaim Cybertron for all Decepticon kind.
[Megatron opens up his Spark chamber, revealing his Spark.]
TFA!Megatron: But, not before I lay waste to the miserable world that held me captive for so long… *Inserts the Allspark in his chamber*
[His chamber starts glowing bright, successfully emerging the artifact in his system. Before Megatron could leave, he fell down. Surges of electrical pulses paralyzed him as Sari’s Key drop from his frame.]
Isaac: I’ve spend 50 years reverse engineering your robotic technology. I know how to disrupt your equilibrium sensors. Your Achille’s heel, if you will.
TFA!Megatron: *Glares down at the professor* Your work is clever, human, but far too superficial. Armor plating and servo-mechanics, you know nothing of a Spark of the core of all Cybertronians. *Gets back up*
[Before Megatron could crush Professor Sumdac by his “Achille’s Heel”, Prime leaps at him. Away from the professor. The Allspark becomes triggered and blasts them off.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Blasts back against the wall* AAAHHHH!!!
TFA!Megatron: You appointed yourself as protector of the Allspark, yet you have no content of its true power.
Sari: Optimus! *Throws her Key at them*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Grabs it* You want power? *Punches into his Spark and jams the Key into the Allspark* Have it, jerk!
TFA!Megatron: *Screams in pain*
[The Allspark shatters into pieces. Megatron is engulfed with immerse energy and the Prime kicks off from the wall. Sari smashes a button to open up the hangar outside.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Tell Unicron I said “Hello”. *Kicks him out of the ship*
[After Megatron was kicked out of the ship, he turned into a ball of energy and creating a blinding beacon in the mountain area then explodes. Everything starts settling down and both Sari and Prime sat on the edge of the open hangar.]
Sari: Did you…destroy the Allspark?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Energy cannot be destroyed or be created. It seems the relic was dissipated. Meaning, your Key is the most powerful Cybertronian artifact in existence. *Lowers the Key down back to Sari* It’s best to be kept safe away from mere Cybertronians.
Sari: *Stares at it with certainty*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: There must be a good reason the Allspark chose you, Sari…Oh, by the way, don’t repeat the curse word I yelled at Megatron.
Sari: Got it, I promise.
[A minute later, Sari began repairing everyone with her Key as the sun sets.]
Sari: *Finishes fixing up Ratchet* There, good as new.
TFA!Ratchet: *Helps placing Sari back on the ground* No sign of the Decepticons. But, I doubt we seen the last of them.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: You all fought like true warriors, true Autobots today. I’m proud of you all, each and every one of you. I don’t have other words to describe your bravery.
TFA!Bumblebee: Go on, tell us! We can take it.
Sari: Umm…Has anybody seen my dad?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Optics widened in fear* Oh no…
[The Autobots started a quick search around the city, in hope they would find Professor Sumdac.]
[Optimus/[Y/N]’s Habsuite]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: We have make some space for Sari. Her dad disappeared and…Ugh! I should’ve prevented this from happening.
OG!TFA!O.P.: [Y/N], it wasn’t your fault. You had to stop Megatron from accessing full power of the Allspark.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: And look what happened. Now, we need to be guardians for an 8 year old. In the meantime, we also have to track down where Professor Sumdac is. He could be held hostage by now.
OG!TFA!O.P.: …You knew what you’re talking about. Because I remember exactly that you know this universe and how everything works. Is Professor Sumdac taken somewhere as a hostage?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Yes, I can’t lie about that. Except, I’m responsible for holding this information since nobody else knows except us. They’ll accuse me of being a Decepticon spy.
OG!TFA!O.P.: Then you better take responsibility if this leaks out. I can’t take the fall.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I know. What’s important now is helping Sari for the time being.
[Bonus Content]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Okay, here is the material of caring for a human child. They need food, water, stimulation and education while needing emotional support.
TFA!Ratchet: Where did you get all of this information on raising “organic protoforms”?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Uhhh…Parenting blogs…I just looked into it to help Sari get settled down until we can find her father.
TFA!Bumblebee: And I thought you already know how to care for organics. Kids are easy to care for.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Me? Yes. You four? Better study and use the knowledge for her sakes.
TFA!Prowl: Seems you act like one’s guardian for little beings.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Well, that happens when you’re my team and I’m responsible for all of you.

Man the tfone edition of the path of the primes is gonna be fun because fixing. That is going to be a sisyphean effort on reader's part XD
Hello! I’m the writer of the TF series, The Path of the Prime(s).
You have no idea how much restraint the [Reader] would need to hold back from almost killing the main antagonists.
So, it may take a while to write for the TF One continuity. However, you can assume right as the [Reader] would attempt to fix the problems, but have to comply with Sentinel’s reign of power since they can’t afford to stand out as a “suspect of interest” due to their current position as a cogless miner. They even can’t afford to drag Orion’s friends in the mess.
Especially D-16, who is loyal to the figure. Though, we know he’ll find out the truth eventually when they need to progress the storyline.
Plus, needing to convince the original Orion Pax, who would also act as their spirit guide, TF One Sentinel is a fraud. A poser. Someone who was never worthy of the Prime title in the first place.
They’ll even question some inconstancies of the fake Prime’s leadership. Like…
“If he was worthy of earning the title, how come Energon didn’t resume flowing throughout Cybertron?”
“Because the Matrix of Leadership was lost when the Thirteen Primes left to fight against the Quintessons.”
“Then, shouldn’t the artifact able to be revealed to the one who’s deemed worthy to hold responsibility? We know for a fact, the Matrix should be witnessed by many optics of Cybertron.”
“…You do have a point. But, if we find it, we can show Sentinel and help everyone.”
“I know, but Pax, everything you lived throughout your life until now, it’s all a conspiracy. I know too well about them.”
It’s gonna be weird to see your fellow miner talking to himself.
The worst part of trying to fix the issues in that continuity/universe would probably have to be the [Reader] needing to act like the Orion Pax everyone knew. It would still be a struggle to them since they know the story and has strong (negative) feelings about the propaganda Sentinel spread around Iacon.
I think the worst part of trying to act like Orion or any of the O.P. variants is maintaining the relationships with everyone he connected with.
D-16 may become suspicious of his own best friend since returning from the Archives…
[SYNOPSIS]: This is the one of the rare times Optimus/[Y/N] goes savage on a certain big-chinned douche.
[PLATONIC]
[WARNING]: Human cursing, Sentinel slander, some Elite Guard slander, OG TFA!Optimus just exhausted from [Y/N]’s methods of getting back at the jerks who ruined his life.
[(A/N)]: This fic is based at the beginning of Season 2.
[MASTERLIST]
[After the battle against the Decepticons, Team Prime are now cleaning and rebuilding the damages left behind.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *In their alt. mode* Everyone is afraid of us since the battle. We need to rebuild their trust with us after fixing everything.
OG!TFA!O.P.: I understand, [Y/N]. We’ll think of a way.
[Beeping erupted from the outside of a concrete slab, blocking the drivers.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: One moment, everyone. *Transforms back in their robot mode and carefully lifts the slab* up*
[When they picked up the debris, drivers were already driving back. Driven away from their presence.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Steaming motherboard, we really need to rebuild trust with everyone. They were afraid of me.
TFA!Ratchet: Can ya blame them? After all, we trashed half their city.
TFA!Prowl: I believe the Decepticons did most of the trashing.
TFA!Bulkhead: *Sits down* I liked it better when we were heroes.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: We’re still heroes, Bulkhead. It may take time to remind the citizens that we’re good. Let’s get back to work.
TFA!Ratchet: Hey, where’s Bumblebee? Isn’t he supposed to be helping, too?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Most likely with Sari. She’s still affected by the last battle and with her father missing, somebody needs to be by her side.
TFA!Ratchet: You really care about that kid.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: It’s nothing. She’s part of the team and really needs more help than ever.
[Out of nowhere, a blinding object appeared across the clear skies. Detroit News already addressing the sudden presence of an unidentified object from space, heading straight to downtown Detroit.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Furrows their brow-ridges* Oh, great.
OG!TFA!O.P.: What is it now, [Y/N]? More trouble?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: More than trouble.
[Enter Bumblebee and Sari running to the team.]
TFA!Bumblebee: Did you guys see that?
TFA!Ratchet: *Turns his attention at the two* It’s kind of hard to miss.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Turns to the direction of the flying object* We better look into it. Transform and roll out.
[Everyone transforms into their alt. modes and head over to the location where it could have been landed. At the front view shows a large space craft, bigger than The Orion ship.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Of course, it had to be them.
OG!TFA!O.P.: You’re sounding more agitated than before.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I have a bone to pick with someone since childhood.
[As Team Prime arrives at the site, the Detroit Police Department and Captain Fanzone are already working on securing the area, in case of potential threat.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Transforms back to bot mode* Captain Fanzone, have your men stand down. Let my team and I handle this.
Captain Fanzone: *Laughs sarcastically* Or what? So you can wreck other half of the city? I don’t think so.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Captain, this is beyond your experience in the field. Let us handle this.
[Then, as pressurized air hissed. A hatch opens and everyone is in high alert, suspecting for anything. A ramp unfolds for the mysterious visits to reveal themselves, members of the Elite Guard.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Aw shit. Ultra Douche and his SIC, Douche Jr.
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Gawks at them* [Y/N]!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Come on. You know these two are the reason for your current situation. At least Jazz is here to lighten up the mood.
Captain Fanzone: Ah…Robots. Why did it had to be robots?
[Team Prime stride over in front of the members, all in a single-filed line. Everyone saluted to the them, except [Y/N] since they know the Elite Guard’s authority is not what the leader respected.]
TFA!Ratchet: *Looks over at them and whispers* Prime, why aren’t ya saluting to them?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I have reasons, Ratchet.
[Then quickly, Ultra Magnus commanded Jazz to put down a force-shield to separate the human law enforcement and wandering citizens from everyone. Sari comes into the scene to catch up with the team.]
TFA!Jazz: *Looks closely* You sure that’s necessary, commander? I like to get a closer look.
TFA!Sentinel: You might feel different when the slime they spew out melts through your armor plating that rots your circuits from the inside.
TFA!Jazz: *Hesitant now* Really?
OG!TFA!O.P.: [Y/N], try to remain calm. He’s just like that.
TFA!Sentinel: Have some experience with organics and believe me. Nothing good can come from contact. Isn’t that right, Optimus?
[Then, something snap within the acting leader failing at their stoic poise.]
OG!TFA!O.P.: Oh no.
TFA!Bumblebee: *Shivers* Does anyone feel cold about now?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Fumes and explodes* Hold the slag up!
[The sudden outburst froze everyone in place.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: That’s misinformation you’re spreading around, Sentinel. Jazz, humans don’t spew out any slime or bodily fluids voluntarily. He’s just fear-baiting you from learning about other life-forms outside of Cybertron all because he’s lacking experience in the field.
TFA!Jazz: *Little relieved* Really? A’ight, I trust your call since you guys were here longer.
TFA!Sentinel: *Offended by another authority* Hey! That’s out of line!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Out of line like that big-ass chin of yours.
[Everyone around the two gasps and some laughed at the comeback. Bumblebee and Bulkhead wheeze at the burn, Prowl smirks a bit and Ratchet was surprisingly pleased and chortle from their witty response. Even Jazz tries to not laugh at the sudden reflect of the insult.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: And another thing that’s out of line here is you and the Elite Guard coming to Earth without notifying us. We didn’t expect you three to drop by and cause trouble with the city’s locals.
TFA!Sentinel: Watch that tone of yours, Optimus. Do you even remember who are you dealing with?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I remember who I’m dealing with, just not as important as back then. We only deal with other higher authorities or threats. Even with Decepticons, we treated them as important while they infest this planet, alone.
TFA!Sentinel: Decepticons? On this forsaken mud ball? Optimus, you must really want to prove you have what it takes to be a “hero”. Even though you never had it in your programming to begin with. From what I see, there’s no proof of ‘Cons anywhere.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Oh, you want proof? There are many Detroit citizens who watched us saving the city every day. Why don’t you ask them to see evidence of us kicking ‘Con ass? Or is your galactic xenophobia gonna act up?
TFA!Sentinel: Why you…
[The two glare at each other with such intensity, but the commander steps in to prevent any more damage.]
TFA!Ultra Magnus: That is enough! Jazz, put down the shield.
TFA!Jazz: *Activates the force-shield with a controller*
[After the shield was placed down, Sari was still outside and banging against the field.]
Sari: Hey, what’s the big idea?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Turns back at her* Oh scrap! Sari!
Sari: Optimus, what’s going on?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Sari, everything’s going to be okay. We’ll be out soon. Just hang tight, stay close with Captain Fanzone until we return back out. You understand?
Sari: *Nods* Just be careful.
[Everyone starts boarding into the ship.]
TFA!Ultra Magnus: Sentinel Prime, decontaminate Optimus Prime and his crew.
TFA!Sentinel: *Smirking arrogantly* With pleasure.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Holds everyone back and stand down* Ultra Magnus, sir, with all due “respect”, shouldn’t you at least scan everybody instead of wasting resources on no-based claims of biohazards or any potential pathogens?
TFA!Sentinel: *Gawks at them* Sir, you can’t possibly listen to that consideration.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I’m considering you should start with my suggestion since you and the Elite Guard clearly lack of proper protocol. Didn’t the academy mentioned this in one of the classes?
TFA!Ultra Magnus: Well, you may have a point of preserving our resources. Might as well do the scans. Sentinel, scan everybody and report back if they need of decontamination.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Sees Sentinel's soured expression* Don’t think I didn’t see that look on your face, Sentinel. You just wanna humiliate my team and I just because we’re “maintenance bots”.
TFA!Sentinel: *Backs up from them* Don't feel cocky yet, Optimus.
[Further inside the ship, Sentinel starts scanning the team and [Y/N] while wearing a displeased expression on his faceplate. Tolerating the Magnus’ orders. Then, results came in and every member is in the clear, no need for decontaminating. Now, everyone is gathered at the front of the commander himself at the main console.]
TFA!Ultra Magnus: We’ve wasted enough time and valuable resources tracking down these stragglers. So if it’s all the same to you, we’ll just retrieve the Allspark, and be on our way.
[Members of the crew looked at each other with worry and hesitate to report about the artifact.]
TFA!Bumblebee: Yeah, a-ab-bout the Allspark…Funny story…It kind of…Sort of…
TFA!Bulkhead: *Cuts in* Blew up!
[The three Elite Guardsmen looked at them in horror.]
TFA!Ultra Magnus: What? The Allspark is destroyed?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Not exactly. The Allspark is practically energy, which it cannot be destroyed or be created. Meaning when it shattered and disperse, it couldn’t just disappear.
TFA!Sentinel: Oh, you made some big time blunder in your day, Optimus. But this one tops them off.
TFA!Ratchet: *Defends them* He’s a slagging hero for keeping it from Megatron and the Decepticons!
TFA!Sentinel: Stand down, rust-bucket. Your boss is a lot of things but hero isn’t one of them. *Steps forward to TFA!O.P.![Y/N]* We did a sweep of the entire planet. Not one trace of Decepticon energy signatures.
TFA!Bumblebee: *Jumps in the conversation* That’s ‘cause we kicked their sorry solenoids.
TFA!Sentinel: You expect us to believe that a bunch of glitched-detailed flunkies could defeat Megatron?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: I did kicked his faceplate and tried to choke the bastard.
[Then Sentinel continues being a cocky dickhead, still not believing the claims of actual Decepticons on Earth.]
TFA!Sentinel: But, where’s your proof?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Ask the Detroit citizens. They should have video evidence of Decepticons attacking the city.
TFA!Sentinel: Yeaaaah…no. Then, show me one shred of evidence that the Allspark wasn’t completely destroyed on your watch.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Okay, bet.
TFA!Sentinel: *Scoffs* And you know what’s that’s worth, don’t we?
[Bulkhead and Bumblebee turn to their leader.]
TFA!Bulkhead: Come on, boss-bot. Why don’t you stand up for yourself?
TFA!Sentinel: *Smirks arrogantly* Because he knows his place.
TFA!Bulkhead: *Burst in anger* HOW ‘BOUT I PUT YOU IN YOUR PLACE?!! *Lunges at Sentinel and about to punch him*
[Jazz and the Prime team held back their respective teammates.]
TFA!Prowl: Bulkhead, no!
TFA!Bumblebee: Woah easy, big guy!
TFA!Ratchet: This cyber-clown isn’t worth it.
TFA!Ultra Magnus: *Brings down his hammer* Stand down, all of you! These are serious charges and will be investigated. Optimus Prime, show us where this supposed Decepticon battle took place. Your crew will remain here with Jazz until this matter is settled.
TFA!Sentinel: As you know... *Salutes him* I scanned some typical Earth vehicles, sir, so we won't attract attention to ourselves.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Not for long, "smart-ass".
TFA!Ultra Magnus: Good work, Sentinel Prime. Transform.
[Ultra Magnus and Sentinel transform into their Earth-based vehicles; a snow plow truck and a 8-wheeled military HEMTT missile truck. Team Prime just looks at them in astonishment and also seeming unenthusiastic.]
TFA!Bumblebee: *Looks up at Bulkhead* Oh yeah. No one's gonna notice that.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Silently judging them with furrowed brow ridges* ...
TFA!Sentinel: *Feeling their gaze* What? Jealous?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: No, just..."Barely noticeable".
[Outside of the ship, the shield is down and the ramp is open. Prime came out first, much of relief for the Detroit Police and the bystanders waiting for their protectors.]
Sari: Look! Prime's okay.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Walking down the ramp* It's alright! They're on our side. *Transforms*
[Prime leads Ultra Magnus and Sentinel off to the site of the previous batte, though a certain snow plow mobile clumsily bumps and crashes into vehicles that should have been avoidable down the path.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Are you for real?
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Also in his vehicle mode* [Y/N], we promised not to take things too far, especially beating Sentinel up.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Prime, you have the patience of a saint. I don't. I'm even willing to call an airstrike on him.
[The three drove over the highway of the city.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Here on Earth, we drive on the right side of the street. However, different driving rules and laws all depend which state or country you're in.
TFA!Sentinel: *Cuts in between Prime and Ultra Magnus* Ultra Magnus is not interested in the opinions of a scrub. *Tries to outdrive them*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Hey! *Moves in front of Sentinel* Even though you're "guests" here, follow the rules before somebody gets hurt.
TFA!Sentinel: *Drives around them* I don't need to hear whatever scrap you put out. *Speeds up*
[Sentinel drove straight ahead and ran over some barricades, some destroyed in the process. However, at the end, the bridge road was unfinished and he leaped off.]
TFA!Sentinel: AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! *Crashes down against a pillar*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Dumbass motherfucker...I told him so.
[Hours later: Prime, Ultra Magnus and Sentinel arrived at Dinobot Island and stopped at the shores.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Alright, before we continue, there are rules to traveling further into the island.
TFA!Ultra Magnus: What would these rules be, Optimus?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]:
Be quiet as possible since there are life-forms here that can kill you.
Stay with a guide... *Points at themselves* ...and don't get lost.
If I hear somebody bitching during the excursion, we're turning back around. *Looks at Sentinel*
TFA!Sentinel: *Offended* I don't "bitch" about anything, whatever that means.
TFA!Ultra Magnus: Well, you have a tendency of forming complaints.
TFA!Sentinel: They're formal opinions.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N] & TFA!Ultra Magnus: *Looks at each other as a silent mutual agreement about Sentinel’s complaining*
TFA!Sentinel: I saw that!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Let’s get going and remember the rules I laid out.
[Then, the three proceed to follow into the island's forest-infested area. Silently walking down a path.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Quietly* The ship is right up ahead. Remember, try to be quiet as to not draw unwanted attention.
TFA!Sentinel: *Sarcastic* Ooooh afraid there might be some big bad Decepticons lurking in the bushes?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Glares back at him* What did I say? This is a only warning I'm giving you if your attitude continues, we're turning back.
TFA!Sentinel: *Now quietly speaks* Sheesh, sorry...Is it Decepticons?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Not Decepeticons. Dinobots.
[Unfortunately, through the rustling tall grass, the Dinobots leap out of their hiding spots. On guard and readied to start fighting.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Backs U.M. & Sentinel behind them* They’ll leave us alone if we don’t provoke them.
TFA!Sentinel: I don’t need some Elite Guard wash-up telling me how to handle “primitive technology”.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Sentinel, these Dinobots aren’t as primitive as you assumed. They’re capable of thinking and still destructive to ruin your day.
TFA!Sentinel: I don’t recall asking you.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]/OG!TFA!O.P.: Oh, frag/fuck…
[Then, the Dinobots transform into their alt. modes and started attacking Sentinel for acting hostile towards them.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Ultra Magnus, may we continue the search? Sentinel Prime seems to be handling the fight accordingly.
TFA!Ultra Magnus: *Raises a brow ridge at them* …
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Vents* Fine, we’ll help him.
[After Ultra Magnus activates his Hammer, he slams the weapon down to the ground. Electrical currents startled the Dinobots, reverting them back to their Dino forms and retreat into the thick forest. Then, a distress signal reached to the Prime.]
TFA!Ratchet: “Prime! We’re at the Sumdac Robot Plant and we’re gonna need backup!”
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Copy that, Ratchet. I’m on my way. *Transforms and rolls out*
TFA!Ultra Magnus & TFA!Sentinel: *Transforms and follows behind [Y/N]*
[They travel back to the city and hurried over to the robot plant, surrounded by Sumdac's robotic law enforcers. Prowl fell as the rogue police-bots circled around his form.]
OG!TFA!O.P.: Prowl needs help.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: On it! *Throws their axe at the direction*
[It spins and slices through the bots that were about to shoot Prowl. The axe redirects back to [Y/N] as they caught it mid-air.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Mind if I cut in? *Helps Prowl stand back up*
TFA!Ultra Magnus: *Crushes some police-bots behind them with his vehicle mode*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Oh, thanks, commander.
[More rogue drones roll out of the plant, surrounding the Elite Guards and Team Prime. Everyone destroy as many as they could but more kept coming out.]
TFA!Ratchet: It's no use! No matter how many we destroy, they just keep coming!
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: We need to shut down that assembly line.
Sari: *Running towards them* I'll do it, with my Key.
[They leap in and shield Sari away from the incoming police drones.]
Sari: As long as this company's name is "Sumdac", it's my responsiblity.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Okay. Bulkhead, Ratchet, Bumblebee, distract the drones while Prowl and I help Sari sneak inside the loading dock. *Transforms*
[Sari gets inside of them and drive off with Prowl in his motorcycle form.]
TFA!Jazz: Might if I join ya? *Transforms and drives behind them*
[The assembly line continues functioning and building drones, [Y/N], Prowl and Jazz rush inside to find the controls. Drones in front and back block their path.]
TFA!Jazz: Go! We'll hold them off here. *Pulls out his nunchakus*
[Prowl and Jazz destroy the drones while [Y/N] helps Sari down to teh panel.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Hurry! Use the Key!
Sari: *Inserts her Key into the control panel*
[The assembly line shuts down, stopping production.]
Sari: And that is why the company name is "Sumdac".
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Oh, thank Primus.
Sari: *Tries to pull out the Key* My Key, it's stuck. I can't get it out.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Let me try. *Pinches on it and tries to pull out* Oh, it's really stuck. The panel is gonna overload.
[Sentinel came and pushes [Y/N] away.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Almost trips* What was that for?!
TFA!Sentinel: I think you've done enough, Optimus. I'll make sure you're tried for high treason for destroying the Allspark. Now come with me. *Grabs their servo*
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Smacks him off* Now's not the best time to select my punishment, I need to help Sari.
TFA!Sentinel: That wasn't a request. That's a direct order, Optimus.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Silently infuriated and clenches their fists* ...Sari, cover your ears.
Sari: *Covers her ears*
TFA!Prowl: Oh no...
TFA!Jazz: Should we cover our audial sensors?
TFA!Sentinel: Now why-
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Glares coldly at Sentinel*
TFA!Sentinel: *Feels shivers down his backstrut* Optimus…?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Mask up and staring down at Sentinel* Stop being a total jackass and let us fix the mess! You know nothing when it comes to solving issues like this, or discuss at an appropriate time.
[They pull out their axe and chops off the control panel. Inside revealed to be an Allspark fragment attached to Sari's Key, responsible for causing the police drones to become defiant of its programming.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Catches Sari from falling* *Grabs the shard and shoves it into Sentinel's chassis* Here. This is evidence that the Allspark never disappeared. Either give it to Magnus or shove it up in your hard-drive.
[They push past Sentinel as they carry Sari out with Prowl and Jazz following behind them. Before leaving the plant, they look back at Sentinel.]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: By the way, it's Optimus Prime. I earned that rank. *Optics shun with unrecognizable fury*
[After the shard was given to Ultra Magnus, he inspects the piece and confirmed it was one of the remnants of the Allspark. Clearing parts of statement that Team Prime did what was best during the last battle. Sentinel tried to disregard the Prime as a "liar" but the Magnus dismisses the claim and reminded the other Prime of the qualities of a true leader of one's team.]
[Bonus Content]
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: *Typing down on their personal computer*
OG!TFA!O.P.: What are you doing this time?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Typing out records for Sari since she’s considered nonexistent. Can’t believe Isaac didn’t file them out.
OG!TFA!O.P.: You do realize it’s considered "identity fraud".
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: It’s fine. I’ve done it plenty of times back home when I need to do undercover ops.
OG!TFA!O.P.: How many times?
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Enough times that even CIA didn’t notice.
OG!TFA!O.P.: *Stares at them* …I don’t know what else you did back then.
TFA!O.P.![Y/N]: Two words: Infiltration and sabotage. I’m more on infiltrating, but it’s fun sabotaging enemy defenses.
