Before time began, there was the Cube. We know not where it comes from, only that it holds the power to create worlds and fill them with life. That 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.

Cybertron was burning, the once beautiful planet was being destroyed by the eternal war between Autobots and Decepticons. The eternal struggle that has gone on for millions of years was taking its toll on the planet. All hope was fading in the Autobots sparks, with Sentinel Prime gone all eyes turned to the last Prime, Optimus. The Cybertronian was the world's strongest warrior and the greatest leader that has ever been created. But even leaders have weaknesses.

"Elita, we must go!" Optimus shouted to a fellow Autobot. It was a female, its trilithium body was sleek and curved to show its femininity. This femme was Elita- 1, the second in command in the Autobots army, second to Optimus Prime and his Sparkmate. It is said that the great creator Primus gifted Cybertronians with a gift that would bring light to the world. In human terms, Sparkmates are soulmates, two beings born with the same heartbeat, their very souls are intertwined.

"No Optimus, I must protect the Allspark!" she shouted back as she cleaved a Decepticon in half, the Decepticons had found the Allspark and were relentless in their pursuit of it. "There is no other option, the Allspark must be taken off the planet!"

"I will not let you be the one to take it!" Optimus growled angrily as she threw a Decepticon away from him so he could shoot it in the face.

"There is no other way!" she ripped the spark out of a Decepticon that was about to backstab her mate "I must do this" she turned Optimus around once there was a break in the endless wave of Decepticons. "we will be together again" she smiled and pressed her forehead to him, their sparks jolted at the touch.

"Please, don't do this" Optimus pleaded desperately, though he knew it would not change his beloved's mind.

"I must my love…there is no one else" she turned her head slightly and pressed against him harder "be strong Optimus, lead our people" she pushed away and ran towards the cargo hold. Optimus watched her run for only a short moment before more Decepticons arrived. If she was not going to listen then he would make sure no one would get near her.

"Optimus!" a dark and sinister voice roared towards the last Prime. Turning around, Optimus glared at his old friend, Megatron, leader of the Decepticons.

"It is too late Megatron, the Allspark is gone!" the Decepticon leader roared angrily.

"Never, I will get my hands on the Allspark and with it, I will destroy every Autobot!" the two clashed viciously, trading blows and shooting every piece of metal they could see.

"It is too late!" Optimus repeated as he saw the ship containing Elita- 1 rising from the bay.

Megatron turned around and looked at the retreating ship "no! the Allspark! Starscream, stop that ship!"

"NO!" Optimus screamed as he saw Megatron's right-hand man fly through the air and attack the ship "ELITA!" he screamed as he saw part of the ship explode, it flew off into space but blew up once out of the planet's atmosphere. He felt his spark flare in pain. His Sparkmate was gone.

"No!" Megatron roared angrily, he pushed Optimus away from him and ran into the hangar. He would follow the ship to wherever it landed and retrieve the Allspark himself.

Optimus allowed anger to take over himself, it was better than the agonizing pain he felt over the loss of his beloved. With a mighty roar, he destroyed all Decepticons that attacked him.

On that day he vowed that no one else would feel the pain he felt, no one else would lose someone to the damnable war. He would be the leader his people needed.

Elita- 1 managed to get into a pod when she saw Starscream flying towards her, just as the missile hit the ship she managed to eject and put in the coordinates to a planet that no Decepticon has ever been on.

A place called Earth. It was there that she was found by the humans and hidden in a bunker of thick concrete for thousands of years.

Thousand Years later

Eli Witwicky, adopted daughter of Judy and Ron groaned loudly as she heard Judy shouting at Sam to get ready for school. The lovely woman's voice could break the sound barrier it was that high pitched when she was annoyed. Don't think that Eli hated Judy, no she loved the woman very much but when it was 5 in the morning and Eli was trying to sleep…well, you can understand the annoyance the woman had with the matriarch of the Witwicky family.

"Every morning…" Eli muttered to herself, there was no point going back to sleep now, Judy would continue to yell all day when she gets riled up, and Sam has a habit of making her irritated. With another groan, she rolled out of bed and onto the floor to start her routine. 20 pushups, 10 sit ups, 10 crunches, 15 squats, 25-star jumps, and 4 minutes of planking. She enjoyed keeping in shape but it was also for her job, she got a job as a personal trainer and gymnast teacher. It was a very fulfilling life for her even if it was simple.

Once her routine was done she jogged downstairs and joined her family for breakfast "I have a client near the school this morning so I can drive Sam to school if you want?" she asked Judy and Ron.

"That would be great" Ron replied, "it would give me more time to work on the path."

"I really don't want him on your motorcycle," Judy said with a deep frown, she was a worrywart and a helicopter parent "what if you crash, both of you could die!"

"Judy, he'll be fine, you know how well I drive and he's been on my bike plenty of times."

"Mom, being taken to school by Eli makes me look cooler, don't you want me to be cool?" Sam chimed in, he always felt embarrassed when being taken to school by Ron. Everyone had a car and every time Ron took him to school they would tease him about it. When Eli drove him they ignored him for her and if they spoke to him it was usually to ask if Eli was single. His sister was attractive, even he could admit that. She had tanned skin, curves for days, pastel pink hair and bright blue eyes and a tattoo of her name on her arm. Throw in a motorcycle and she became a dude magnet.

"Don't worry about her, she snuck behind my back and drank an entire cup of coffee?" Ron said with a sigh, he was the one that had to deal with her for the whole day.

"Oh, makes sense" Eli giggled and drank her tea whilst she waited for Sam to be ready.
