A transformers Beast war story.

Optimus Primal is caring for a young bot, but is said that he can't be with him, he can't raise him. Primal doesn't know what to do...

"Whoa..." Primal runs around the base. He starts laughing. He tries to stop the little one. He runs after him, laughing, playing along with the young bot. He sees the young one hiding under the table. He stops, he really needs some rest, how can the young bot, have so much energy. He takes a deep breath. "Where are you little guy?' He says playfully. "Where did you go?"

It was silence, he is wondering if the young one has escape. He checks under the table, he sees the young one cuddle up. He is trying to hid. Primal smiles, "I think I found you"

The young bot squeals. Primal gently holds him. He hugs him close.

"Hey little guy" Primal says

The young one keeps laughing, he hugs Primal. The young one is now slowly falling asleep. Rhynox goes in.

"Primal, you got the paperworks done" he says

Primal just stares blankly at the wall. He forgot all about it.

"I guess you didn't even look at them"

"Rhynox, I'm resting right now. I'm on break"

"I gave you those papers, fours hours ago. You should be done by now" Rhynox says

"Well, I...umm...I need to do something" he says

"Primal, look...You...wait, what are you holding?" he ask

Primal doesn't turn around. "What?"

"Primal, please tell me you don't have that thing with you"

Primal turns around in anger "He is not a thing. And SHH he is sleeping'

"He is distracting, you have to take him somewhere safe"

"No...He is staying with me" Primal says

"But...he can't. You have so much work to do. You have to. He needs someone who can look after him. I'm sorry, but you can't"

Primal sighs he knows he can't. He is always working, never in one place. He looks at the young one. He has to, it's what best for him.

He keeps looking at where he drop him off. "I'll miss you Cheetor"

"Cheetor?" Rhynox says

"I named him Cheetor, because he is fast, like an animal we study when we went to Earth" He says "Let's go"

Primal is sitting on his desk. He doesn't feel like working now. He feels empty. He can't concentrate. He is busy worrying about Cheetor. Primal stares at the papers in front of him. He doesn't want to read them. "This is worse. I can't concentrate, focus Primal FOCUS!" Primal starts saying to himself. "Prime's, can't have any relation at all. He is safe, he is safer when he is far from you"

Primal doesn't believe that. He will protect him here. He is safer next to him.

"OPTIMUS!" He jolts up to see Rattrap, he is scared. "The daycare, the bot care, it's under attack"

His spark stops for a second. His whole world crashing down. His eyes widen, he needs to do something. He is staying still, he is frozen.

"Optimus!"

He blinks "Gather the Maximals, we will defend the bot care. Follow my lead"

Optimus dashes towards the place. He made a mistake. He shouldn't have left him there. He is never going to let him go after this. He charges in and tackles a Predacon. He is using all his might. He is not stopping for anything. He sees a little bot running away from the noise. "Cheetor!"

He turns back, he stops to lend out his arms. Optimus can see the fear in the young ones eyes. He runs as fast as he can. He hugs him tight.

"I'm here Cheetor. We are going to be okay. We are going home!"

He starts running. "Retreat!" the Predacons yells. Primal keeps shooting at everysingle one of them. He stops when he sees Megatron. He blinks as he did, something hit his back. It pierce through him. He gasp for air. The pain, it hurts, it's starting to build up. He feels like yelling, he feels like falling, but he can't. Cheetor is with him. He sees that it's a sword, it's through his body. He feels it being remove. He groans in pain, the sharp pain, it's all he can feel. He goes to one knee, he can't fell, he has to keep going. "Come on Primal! Get up!" he says to himself. "You have to keep running"

He goes down, he hits the floor slowly letting go of Cheetor. "Optimus!" He keeps yelling. "DADDY!"

Primal spark lightens up by the words. He smiles a little. The Predacons are gone none to be seen. Primal is slowly fading. He can hear noise but it's all mumble. The vision going blurry, everything is spinning. "Cheetor, take care"

"You are not done Prime"

Primal eyes open up. He shoots up. "Where...Where am I?"

"You are where all are one" one answers

"What...?"

"We are the Prime's" the other says

"What...how did I get here"

"Near death experience"

"What...?" he is now getting scared. "Wait, you said Primes. I'm not a Prime. I'm just a leader"

"You are. You have the Matrix with you"

"I...do..."

"Yes you do. A story to tell later. But right now you have to go back"

"I got a question. Is it true?" Is it true that I can't have emotion or...whatever...or have someone close to me"

"Yes. It's safer for them, and for you. Without that emotion, you will be able to lead."

"Oh right" Primal spark is slowly beating now. "I understand"

"Now you must go back. You still have so much to do. Primal"

The Prime's disappear, Primal is standing there. He doesn't know what to do. What about Cheetor? He doesn't want to leave him. He wants to take care him, wants to raise him.

"You do want your spark wants" Primal jumps to look behind him.

"You're...Alpha Trion"

"Yes."

"One of the Primes...but..."

"You do want your heart wants. I believe it makes you better" Alpha looks around. "Orian Pax, or Optimus Prime, was the one that kept me going. He is like a son to me. I've been watching him, taking care of him, when Sentinel Prime didn't want to. He doesn't believe in emotions. But I think, those emotions get you far. It makes you stronger. So Primal, do what's best"

Primel nods. He turns around and bumps into Optimus Prime.

"I have a son. Bumblebee, He was the one that made me stronger. He was there for me, I was there for him. I was fighting for him. I was fighting for his future. I know you feel the same" Optimus smiles "But, Cheetor is your rock now. He is the one, you are going to fight for"

Primal smiles "You're right."

"Don't worry about the whole no emotion thing," Alpha says "That rule is long gone"

Primal nods in understanding.

"No go, you have a boy to raise"

Primal wakes up gasping for air.

"Yes, I got you" Rhynox says

"Where...where is Cheetor?"

"He out in the waiting room. He is worried about you"

"Rhynox, I don't care about what you say. I'm going to raise him. You are not going to stop me"

"Don't worry Optimus. I know it's the right thing to do." he smirks "Now go"

Primal runs out the room. He stops when he sees him "Cheetor" Primal smiles He looks up, his sad eyes turn to happy ones. Primal runs to him and hugs him tight.

"Cheetor. I'm never leaving you again. I'll always be with you" he says "I'll be here with you"

Cheetor blinks a few times "Dad..."

"That's right...my son" Primal hugs him again.
