-Optimus Prime opening monologue-
Earth, a planet like one we once called come, a planet that was consumed by darkness.
Cybertron is now nothing but a memory. Now the war that caused Cybertron to be obliterated has been brought to Earth. The war that had waged for light-years and eons. The war between the Autobots, who wanted nothing more than peace, and the Decepticons who had a vision of themselves enslaving every single species in the galaxy and ruling them under a merciless dictatorship.
The war has taken a toll on the humans that inhabit this planet we have taken refuge on. They have helped us take down our enemies ever since we made a pact with them. But we can only wonder how long it will be until they lose their faith in us to protect them from the shadows.
But before the war destroyed Cybertron, there was one hope we had to end it for good. The Pure Code, a virus that gives anyone who is injected with it, the power to revive the dead. We were going to use it to revive Primus, the Autobot who gave his life to give us a peaceful home and that way he would destroy his brother, Unicron, the original Decepticon. One who's ideas of tyranny spread across the universe like a plague.
Primus had gone into permanent hyper-sleep because of what Unicron had done to him in the first battle that made the war. Primus turned back into his planet form to give us a home, and he remained like that forever. Unicron did the same and took to the stars, plotting for the perfect scheme to take over the Galaxy as we know it.
The Pure Code was launched into space, in the hopes that the Decepticons would never get their hands on it. Little did we know that the Code had been flying around the farthest reaches of space for millions of years. Then, finally, the code landed on Earth in the year 2004, the year a special little girl was born.
A woman was lying in bed looking deathly ill. Her husband walked into the room and placed a hand on her stomach. The woman was nine months pregnant, and the baby was two weeks away. He walked away with tears in his eyes, he knew his wife would die soon, and the baby along with her. He went outside on the porch and got down on his knees, then he placed his hands together.
"Dear Lord,
Please send me something. Anything to help my wife and my child survive. Please, I don't want to lose them so soon.
In your name, Amen" he prayed. He then looked up to the sky to see a bright light. The light came from something that was falling down to Earth's atmosphere faster than the speed of light. The meteor crashed ten feet away from where the house was. He ran to the crash site and found a medium sized canister with the top and bottom caps being made of metal while the entire tube was covered in glass. Inside were two glowing green crystals that were twisted in the shape of DNA, with tiny little light green glowing rods that made it look a lot like DNA, with alien markings on the metal caps, and the crystals.
"What is this?" the man wondered to himself. The next day, he took it to the chemical labs he worked at and analyzed it well. He looked to see it ate cancer cells. He looked up to the ceiling.
"You ARE up there" he whispered. The man looked to his left and right and took the unknown chemical back home with him and crushed the crystals into tiny little pieces and injected them into his wife's IV bag.
After a while, she was feeling better, and the baby was ready to be born. They didn't go to the hospital, they decided it would be better if the baby were to be born at their home. On March 17th, 2004, they were blessed with a beautiful baby girl. They named her... Edith.
But this story did not have a happy ending, Edith's mother died during birth. The only words she could mutter out were the words; "I love you, Edith" then she died. The father could not bare to look at the baby as his daughter, because he thought her birth killed his wife. He left her on the doorsteps of an Orphanage called 'Miss Hattie's Home for Girls', wrapped in a pink blanket with a flash card with the words; "My name is Edith" in black marker. When her father left, Edith was crying until the caretaker of the orphanage took her in. but little did her father know, that whatever he found that saved his wife was passed down to Earth, it was in her blood, and would carry it throughout the rest of her life.
Transformers: Armageddon
(Flash forward to 2014, ten years later)
(Location: Cape Canaveral Air Force Center in Florida. 11:13 PM)
There were people on computers looking to see an Su-35 fighter jet on their radar, approaching the base.
"Colonel, sir. I've got an unidentified Su-35 entering our airspace" said one female worker on the main computer. The Colonel then looked to someone else.
"Did you get through to them by radio yet?" he asked. The other person nodded and handed the Colonel a headset.
"Unidentified Su-35, you are in restricted US Military airspace. Please identify yourself and proceed to fly out of the area" the Colonel said. The pilot didn't listen and continued to fly towards the base.
"Sir, it's preparing to land here" the female said.
"Let's give them a warm welcome then" the Colonel replied.
A few minutes later, everyone was waiting at the walk-way where the planes would land and the rogue fighter jet landed in front of them.
"Su-35 pilot, power down your plane now, and step out of the aircraft or we will not hesitate to shoot you down" the female said, taking the Colonel's place on the headset. The plane's engines powered down and the wings folded upward by themselves. The pilot in the cockpit disappeared into pixels, it was a hologram.
"Hold your fire, but be prepared to shoot" said one soldier. The plane then began twisting and turning. The plane was now a giant robot with two twin Gatling guns on it's arms, one on the left and one on the right. The wings were on it's back, the cockpit window was in the very center of it's chest, the engines were on it's back, in front of the wings, the helmet that covered it's head was like a Pharaoh's crown, and it's eyes were red.
"Oh my God" one soldier muttered. All soldiers fired at it, but the bullets had no affect on it. The robot fired laser bullets from it's twin Gatling guns and blew up buildings, tanks, helicopters, planes, and towers.
"Fire! Fire!" one soldier shouted at a tank. The tank launched a missile at the robot, but the robot shot at the missile and made it blow up. The robot then pulled out a sword with an orange glowing blade. And sliced the tank in half with it. One soldier saw that it was now walking towards the main hangar where the main computer also was. It sliced off the roof and placed it's hand on the main computer terminal.
"Cut the hardline! It's going after the main hard drive!" the one female technician shouted as she saw that the computers were glitching and random files kept getting pulled up.
"I need a key! It's locked!" one male technician shouted. The female took an ax from the 'Fire Emergency' chest and cut the hardlines for good. But it was too late, the robot got what it wanted from the computers, and it resided in it's body.
"This place has no use now that it has failed in getting what I wanted" the robot said aloud. All the soldiers that were still alive heard it and looked as the Gatling gun on it's left arm was raised and fired a missile. Once it hit the main reactor, the explosion was big enough to consume the whole air-base and none were left alive. The robot then turned back into it's Su-35 mode and took off.
On the ground of the base were corpses of the soldiers that died fighting the robot. One of them was holding a camera with the acronym AVL on the side.
Meanwhile, underwater, the Anti-Villain league, or AVL for short saw the robot attack the air base.
"This is unlike anything we've encountered before" said one employee.
"Maybe we should take a more tactical and more violent approach when we face this enemy?" suggested one of the other employees requested.
"No, we need to know all we can before we can try to take it down" said the league's director, Silas Ramsbottom.
"I'll send Gru and Agent Wilde to look into this. But wait until the next attack so we can be sure that whatever this thing is is truly a threat to us" Ramsbottom said to one female employee.
"Yes sir, fully understood" she said before walking away.
"Did we get a copy of the files that thing took from the base's main computer?" Ramsbottom asked a technician.
"It's taking an awful long time. Whatever that thing is, it didn't just take files from the computer, it planted a virus in the system at the same time" said the technician.
"Why?" he asked.
"It must have wanted to make sure no one would want to meddle with whatever it was planning to do with those files" he said. Ramsbottom banged his fist on his desk and growled angrily.
"I'll still have Gru and Wilde look into it, but we'll still wait until this thing decides to attack again" Ramsbottom said to make sure that despite the virus and the files being stolen, they would keep Gru and Lucy Wilde posted.
