This is just a one shot I supposed, enjoy ^-^
There I stood, in the doorway of the pit, listening to the chants of the crowd calling my name.
"MEGATRON! MEGATRON!"
Yes, they knew my name well, for I had earned my way into their sparks, and had given them all a promise.
A promise to rise up against the higher class and ensure equality for all Cybertronians, high caste or low. The librarian, Orion Pax, a brother for which I have come to care for deeply has shown much transgression. He will choose his path like myself soon, that I fear will be the last obstacle that may stand in my way. Does he not see what glory I shall bring to this planet? Does he not know of the power he will have? No one here sees but me, and they will soon learn of what I will make of this broken world.
My plans will soon ignite into a blazing Hellfire when the time is right, not even Primus will realize what power I will bring back, and if anyone defies such a magnificent plan, then they shall crumble beneath my feet like defeated rivals in the pit. My will shall be done, but there is one threat that could prevent it all.
Orion Pax.
He is the only one that has gone against my will, questioned my teachings, and hesitate to accept my plans. What trickery will he bring to me in the near future?
No matter, if I am to bring order back to Cybertron, and I know the power will not be given to me so easily, then I must take it from those who abuse it for their own self gain! Yes! I will take it, earn it, like I earned my name! This planet will see new days, better days, but wait…
Why stop at just one planet?
What about the moons?
What about the other planets charted?
What about planets that have yet to be discovered?
What about all the galaxies that we see every time we gaze at the stars? Or even the stars themselves?
The Cybertronian race has been known to be the most powerful race in the universe, now our name is just a mere whisper, a powerless government with no purpose. Oh, shall I change that, for it is my destined path! Dear Primus, I have never felt so alive!
This world, this race, this universe, I will bring you glory! I will bring you freedom! I will rule all!
With such fine scheme in order and my systems sparking with ecstasy at the very thought of such a future, I stepped out into the pit, hearing the chants and screams from my followers of forgotten affliction. Their voices were deafening to me, yet in a way, I heard each and every one of them, listening to their pleas for change, for justice, and glory that I will soon bring to them.
Let my destiny begin…
-Transformers: Exodus…
I wrote this for a contest on Deviantart, but I wanted to put it on here as well. You see, my friend told me I should put more hatred in there towards Optimus (Originally know as the Librarian, Orion Pax) but this was at the brink of war and Megatron thought of Optimus as brother and did not hate him. If you have already read Transformers :Exodus, then you understand.
I hope you enjoyed this, I poured my heart into it so I could get inside his head. I think of Megatron differently now that I read the book, I almost supported his ideas. :/
