Hello readers! This is a personal challenge that I have given myself. I decided to do an a-z type story set in the Transformers universe. Every chapter will be different and there will be no general connection, unless I explain to you otherwise. I wanted to do more that 26 chapters so this is my first chapter for the letter A for the moment. All of these chapters will be set in either the movies, Transformers GI or Transformers Prime, because those are the ones I know. Sorry if I upset anybody by not having a wider variety. Please feel free to read and review and give me so tips on how I am doing with the characters. Writing Transformers is still a little new to me and I don't really want get death threats from hard core fans. enjoy! ;)

This chapter is set in the movies and it happens just shortly after the events in the first movie. Optimus is compemplating the All Spark after it has been destroyed.

All spark

"Before time began there was the cube. We know not where it comes from only that it has the power to create worlds and fill them with life. This is how our race was born. For a time we lived in harmony. But like all great power, some wanted it for good others for evil. And so began the war. A war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death, and the Cube was lost to the far reaches of space. We scattered across the galaxy, hoping to find it and rebuild our home. Searching every star, every world. And just when all hope seemed lost, message of a new discovery drew us to an unknown planet called…earth. But we were already too late."

Even though the autobots were silent in their recharge, their leader, Optimus Prime, was still very much awake and thinking about the recent events. It saddened him that the All Spark was destroyed after all these years of searching. They were so close to achieving their peace when it was plucked away by Megatron's very spark and burned with it, all thanks to a human. Optimus was not angry at all by what his new friend Samuel did. He did it for the right reasons and he saved Optimus as well as his planet. The boy had courage and was just one example of the many strong forces that existed in this world.

Optimus knew that he could have ended autobots and tyranny would rule if he had destroyed the All Spark with his own spark. He knew that if he couldn't defeat Megatron than the Cube must be destroyed before he could take it into his claws. Optimus was willing to give his life for this planet even before he truly began to understand it.

"A necessary sacrifice to bring peace to this planet. We cannot let the humans pay for our mistakes."

He had been right and they all knew it too. He wasn't going to let anyone else pay for this war. He had to protect the people of earth from being destroyed. At the same time though, the planet was consumed by many different wars in all different places. There might be a time when the autobots could stop their own wars, but now was not the time to discuss that. They had to be alert and looking for any signs of the enemies return. Starscream had gone missing and there were plenty more of Megatron's soldiers waiting in the stars.

"You left me no choice brother."

Thinking about Megatron brought pain in his spark. Megatron had been the older brother and always looked after him, but when Megatron began the war Optimus was on his own. He desperately wished he could have save his spark from the destruction of the All Spark, but everything had happened to fast and all too soon Megatron's optics went dim. The only peace he had was that Optimus was Megatron's final sight and that he heard those words in his final moments.

In the end it all came down to that Cube. It could be large or small, powerful or weak, and yet they all searched hungrily for it. At this point, Optimus wasn't sure to either hate it or just be done with it. It was just another reason the war began. Why Cybertron was nothing more than a globe of scrap metal. Why the earth had been endangered for so many years without even knowing it. Why the autobots and decepticons would never be the same. His thoughts grew weary and Optimus began to tire of it. He decided to just accept what had happened and move on with life…and earth.

"With the All Spark gone we cannot return life to our planet, but fate has yielded its reward. A new world to call home. We live among its people now hiding in plain sight, but watching over them in secret, waiting, protecting. I have witnessed their capacity for courage and though we may be worlds apart, like us, there's more to them than meets the eye. I am Optimus Prime and I send this message to any surviving autobots taking refuge among the stars. We are here. We are waiting."
