Disclaimer – I don't own Transformers and or Evangelion, can't state that any more simply

A/N As I mentioned in the Authors Note on More Than Meets the Eye, here is my Eva/TF 2007 crossover. This story will take place 7 years after the movie. There will be some features that will be different from the TF 2007 Movie story to account for 2nd Impact and such. There will be more Autobots and Deceptions than featured in the movie, though I will only use the official movie continuum designs that have already been approved and/or are concepts as of now. And I have a few WILD ideas for this fic, so if an idea seems weird just wait about another chapter to see it through.

Transfiguration

Chapter 1 (prologue)

Rise Optimus Prime

Preface

Before time began, there was... the Cube. We knew not where it came from, only that it held the power to create worlds and fill them with life.

That was 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.

The Decepticons, led by Megatron followed the Allspark to Earth…and we followed the Decepticons.

I am Optimus Prime, supreme leader of an autonomous robotic species from the planet Cybertron; we followed the Decepticons to earth hoping to retrieve the Allspark before Megatron.

We nearly failed.

To prevent the Allspark from falling into his hand we were forced to destroy it, thus dooming Cybertron, only a small shard remained.

With the Allspark gone, we could not return life to our planet. But fate had yielded its reward, a new planet to call home, to understand and explore.

With the immediate threat of the Decepticons gone, we decided to venture out into the world, the see what it offered. Little did we know…

…it had only truly begun.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

2009, Japan

After the Autobots had established their HQ they had set about exploring the new planet on which they dwelled. Other Autobots had responded to Prime's message and begun the journey to Earth. Femme Autobot Arcee had rejoined the group as had Payload, Dropkick and Longarm. Also joining the group was Bumblebee's twin Cliffjumper.

The Autobots knew many of the Decepticons had survived the battle for the Allspark, but without Megatron and the Allspark they had no clear objective and went into hiding, but still caused some trouble from time to time…

…like now.

In the country of Japan, the quiet countryside, a battle raged between two titanic robotic beings from the planet Cybertron.

On one of his rare sojourns into the wide world Optimus Prime had be ambushed by Starscreem. Normally this would be no problem but the Decepticon had taken the initiative and attacked as prime was headed away from him, causing serious damage.

"So the mighty Prime is at my mercy, well you shall receive none fool"

"Nether shall you"

"Huh"

Before Starscreem could react prime armed his weapon, turned and fired. The round slammed into the Decepticon's chest and shattered the cockpits canopy.

"Lucky, Autobot, not next time"

Before price could react, the seeker Decepticon transformed into its fighter mode and blasted him again before he flew off.

Prime lay motionless for a while. Finally he gathered enough strength to sit up and look around. The field he was in had been destroyed. Such beauty destroyed for no apparent reason, the Autobot leader shook his head. He knew he wouldn't be able to move on his own, so he sent a signal to Ratchet at Autobot HQ. He knew they would arrive within moments. He laid back to wait until a small whimpering sound from the trees caught his attention.

Knowing he couldn't walk, he slowly scooted over to the sound of the noise. His Spark shrank at the sight of a 9 year old boy lying in a pool of his own blood, apparently a victim of one of Starscreem's stray rounds.

"Optimus"

He turned his head to see Ratchet, Ironhide and Cliffjumper making their way toward him. He turned back to the young boy and gently lifted him, his scanners could see the boy was about to die.

"Ratchet you must help him first, his life is closer to fading that my own"

Ratchet was doubtful they could save him as both he and prime were fading fast. The only prayed to Primus he could save Optimus.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Deep inside the Earth, a Spark stirred.

It had spent the past 10,000 years inside this planet, remaking it as its own, having arrived on this fertile ground inside the Allspark. It know both prime and the boy were necessary for the future, but it couldn't save them both as they were…but together, perhaps there was still a way. He focused his energies on the remaining piece of the Allspark prime had kept in his possession and fed his own power into it. He couldn't save them as they were, but he could remake them.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Just as the other Autobots were about to reach prime they froze, the shard of the Allspark Prime had kept was now glowing, and floating in front of him and the human. Ratchet's sensors picked up the energies from the shard immediately.

"By primus, the Allspark"

Suddenly the area was covered in a flash of bright light. As it receded and the other Autobots sensors came back online they were amazed. Prime lay on the ground, his damage healed, the young boy was gone and the Allspark shard still floated above Prime. They watched as it dissolved into ash and floated away on the wind. It was then that ratchet noticed what had truly occurred, the boy wasn't gone; a quick scan confirmed what he thought. Somehow the shard had fused the two, fusing the boy and Prime's sparks and had used the boy's dieing body as an energy source. It was remarkable; though what this would do to prime he could only guess. The medic turned to the other two.

"We must get Prime back and quickly"

Ironhide turned to the group medic as they pulled prime back toward their high speed shuttle Cliffjumper had brought with him.

"What happened here Ratchet?"

As they laid their leader down inside and headed to the controls Ratchet looked over to Ironhide.

"A miracle or Primus' intervention"

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Elita-one sat next to the stasis chamber in which lay her mate Optimus Prime. She and prime had been mates long before Megatron's revolt and attempt to seize the Allspark.

She had just returned from the Far Reaches, where she and many other Femme Transformers had run to escape Megatron's purges.

She had just come to earth along with 3 others Femmes responding to Optimus' message, only to find him in stasis.

Ratchet had explained the situation to her; she had not left his side since. She wondered just how different he would be now, would he remember her.

He had been awake twice prior to her arrival. Ratchet had explained what they knew so far to him the last time he had awakened from stasis. Prime also explained that while he was in stasis he had been having what humans call dreams. He believed these were the memories of the human whose spark had joined with his own, they were slowly becoming one, and soon there would be no difference between them. The 1st time he had awakened he seemed confused, even frightened until Bumblebee had entered the Repair station.

Elita watched as Primes optics flickered back to life. She ran her hand over the metal of the side of his head.

"Welcome back"

Primes optics focused on her.

"So I have rejoined the Matrix"

Elita shook her head.

"You're not dead Optimus, though it is flattering to think you'd want to see me when you get there"

Prime sat up. Elita placed her hand between his shoulders.

"Do you remember anything?"

Prime nodded.

"Everything, memories from the both of us have been poring through my processor could you do something for me Elita"

"Anything Optimus"

"Could you find out more about who he was, I know some things but they are through the eyes of a human child. It's hard to fight these human emotions; they're so different from our own"

Elita placed her hand on her mates shoulder.
"I can't even begin to process what you're going through, but I'll stand with you, just like always"

Prime placed his hand on hers.

"Thank you"

Elita nodded.

"Always, ratchet said he wants you to take it easy for a while till your use to this. Also you have a few upgrades it seems"

"Upgrades?"

"Yes, your frame and external armor have increased in strength, your main weapon is much stronger and your holographic systems have been revamped as well. You have little detachable holo-generators inside each wrist. Once you activate them they'll detach and allow you to control the hologram from a distance"

Prime nodded and looked to the small 3 inch spheres mounted just barely visible behind his hands.

"That will be useful, what of the Allspark shard"

"According to ratchet it disintegrated"

Prime nodded sullenly, and then turned thoughtful.

"I suppose the boy is not gone is he"

Elita shook her head.

"No I suppose not, he's part of you now, your Sparks are fully integrated"

Prime agreed.

"As much as I am him as well, I had always said we should attempt to understand the humans, I suppose there is no better way"

His mate agreed.

"Maybe you should take over, actually live his life, the two of you have become one now so by rights it is YOUR life to live if you choose"

Optimus dropped deep into thought for a moment, and then nodded.

"I suppose you are right, it amazes me that I was chosen as leader and yet you show more wisdom at times than I do"

Elita chuckled a bit, or what humans would define as one. She then slid next to prime and rested her head on his armored shoulder.

"Primus gifted us Femme's with intimate knowledge of matters of the Spark and family, the rest is up to you"

Prime reach around and pulled the Femme closer. The pair just sat in comfortable silence fro a moment until Elita asked.

"What was his name?"

Prime was silent for a moment, and then answered.

"Shinji, his name was Shinji Ikari; I suppose it's partially my name now as well"

Elita nodded but stayed silent, neither spoke for a while, just taking comfort in the presence of the other.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

2.9 miles below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean, at the deepest reaches of the Laurentian Abyss, a large shape began to stir from the mud, its mechanical humanoid body slowly reformatting. It stood to its full height and looked around. Fallen warriors littered the mud near it. It shifted and changed into an aircraft like shape and collected each of them one at a time and deposited them on the beach of a small nearby island that was carved from the sea floor by the tidal waves of second impact. It stood among its fallen, watching as their mechanical bodies regenerated. In rage it threw its head back and roared.

PRIME!!!!!!

A/N yeah I know I started another fic, but I did like the idea of turning Shinji into a transformer but realized it didn't work in More Than Meets The Eye so I built a fic around that. The reason to use the movie as the basis was that I like the G1 era and as I had already used that once I decided to use this. Plus it has so much that could be done with its open end. And imagine Misato and everyone else's reaction when they realize the 3rd child is in fact the 29 foot, 150 million year old, Autonomous robotic life-form from an alien planet!

Oh and I figured you would all want to know, I'm still working on my fics. I'll be updating their status on my profile soon so be watching.

Till 2
