Fate

Diego Garcia, United States Air Force Base.

Midnight

We have just arrived, the toll of the insurgence against the Deceticons have been getting bigger and broader, the results are mixed, humans have a strengh that cannot be measure without contemplating their fragility, many familys have been shattered by the sudden demise of the soldiers that are being brought back in a wooden box, their lives would play as an homage to their anonimous sacrifice…..the real sacriffice.

Oh Jazz, where are you now?I could really used your expertise… I miss Jazz, he was good first litenaunt, capable and strong but never a match for Megatron…we are so few now, so many lost in this senseless war that's been raging for far too long.

Wihout the All Spark we cannot go on, eventually all of us would run out of energon and that would be the end, I understand the desperation of thr Decepticons but we way to archieve a power source can only mean the destruction of the human race, they'll never stop at one.

Earth has yielded some rewards but first to have a new world to protect but the prize we pay has been high…much to high on days like these eres the probabilities seemed endless, by not giving them acceses to out war technology we are telling them we don't trust them..it is true.

Somehow I know someone is trying to copy our techcnology, reverse engennerring wouldn't do the trick, Eistein was smart but his approach is essenatially wrong…energ is endless….harnessing the energy is something else, is even beyond us.

Galloway was probably right, we might have overstayed our wellcome… but to leave the world defenseless? Is that a choice? We need one of them to remind them how important we are to their safe keeping… we need Sam.

Mayor Lennox walks toward the Hangar, he knows everyone is listening…. They never sleep, they just stay there.

-Optimus- The Mayor's voice was clean and clear…..he had nothing to hide, at least not from Optimus.

-Yes, mayor- Optimus replied.

-What..what did the decepticon meant by the "fallen will rise"- Mayor's concerned was genuine.

-I don't know…yet- Optimus lied to the msyor, he didn't like ti but he felt like he had no other choice.

-Do you think we'll get them all?- Mayor's voice was showing some distress.

-They're few and desperate, that makes them dangerous….- Optimus concern was real.

-OK, I'll go home big guy…hopefully tomorrow we'll get better news- The mayor goes away trying to get back to his wife and baby girl.

-Rest, we'll need it- Optimus Prime responded.

-You're Optimus Prime, you never rest- Mayor lennox responded.

Optimus walked towards the outside….his mouthpiece retracting into his original position., he walked very carrefully tying to adjust his weight so it would made the less sound, but in a empty hangar it is quite impossible…the soldiers have gotten used to by now.

"The fallen will rise" the sentence has been burning in his memory for quite some time… something happened many eons ago…. A rogue "prime" than unleashed war upon Cybertron until the death covered the land and our world was lost, I feared that we have brought war upon this world…. At it would be a costly one.

War is upon us, thar much is a fact but the face that this last stand would take is anyone's guess….the humans have a strengh that cannot be measure and it will be tested in the only way possible, we need Sam, we need to remind them that we are not the enemies and in the coming days our alliance must be put to the test…. Must reach Bumblebee…most warn him.

We've kept much from them… but is the price we have payed for the life we've been forced to live, fate rarely call us in the moment of our choosing.

I'm Optimus Prime, leader of the utobots and I now know what must be done.
