Chapter 11

Aqua entered the throne room and closed the door quietly. She looked around to see if anyone else was in the room. She walked over to the crystal wall and lightly touched it activating a holo pad. She pressed a few buttons and a door opened. She proceed to walk in when she heard the heavy door squeak as if it was being forced open. She closed down the holo pad and walked over to the door. She opened it and saw Orion. He gave her a cheeky smile, trying his best to look innocent.

"Orion what are you doing here, I thought you had a study session with Vector?" Orion kept that cheeky smiled plastered on his face.

"Well he kind of got busy and then a member of the court apparently scheduled something important with him, so it got cancelled.

She rolled her optics. She should have known the Primes are always busy. Orion tried to squeeze in without his mother trying to block his way.

"And what exactly are you doing there." She asked

He looked up "I wanted to see what you were doing, I mean I have nothing better to do." Aqua gave in and lead him across the throne room. Orion looked around at the Crystal dome room. The ceiling shone creating light crystals all over the shiny clear metallic floor. His mother was walking back to the wall she was originally. She stopped and again lightly touched the wall bringing up the same Holo pad. Orion stood by her side and watched curious. She smiled and the wall opened revealing a brightly lit room.

"What is this room?" he asked following her in.

"This Orion is where all of Cybertron secrets are kept." She pressed a button on a wall and the floor opened up allowing a table with chairs to come through.

"What kind of secrets are kept here?" he ask taking a seat in the chair.

"Mostly Cybertron's history. Consisting mostly of your Grandparents rule and general articles from over the years." She pulled up and document and allowed Orion to read it.

'Primus and Primsa to step down and divide power among their 12 children.' Orion looked at it fascinated. He scrolled down and saw an old picture of his Father and Uncles. He noticed the only child of the Primes was Archway his oldest cousin.

"How long did they rule?"

"For eons. They ruled half of our galaxy and beyond." Aqua pulled up a Picture of Primus and Primsa. "When Cybertron was in its young years your grandfather wanted and empire. He saw more out there than just Cybertron he saw potential in other planets. He wanted to make this galaxy like Cybertron. Civilized and sophisticated. Having his citizen's walk down the streets with grace and elegance. To be dress in the finest Cyber cloth. He wanted a perfect world. Primsa agreed and helped create the well of allspark to generate more life on Cybertron. She too wanted this world and was more than willing to help her beloved husband. So after Cybertron was well populated he proposed this plan and everyone was all for it. Soon lines began forming outside of the palace to sign up to join the conquering army. Soon enough Primus had conquered three planets within four years."

Orion looked at his mom. Learning about his home was very interesting yes but it seemed like she was leaving details out.

"How many causalities?" he knew conquering worlds was not just a quick painless job there were always a difficult way to victory

"Millions almost billions." She hung her head and opened the window revealing more light. "It was cruel and almost unbearable to hear about years later. But he didn't stop there he wanted more power and nothing was stopping him. He overthrew more kings and kingdoms than anyone I can think of"

Orion fiddled with his thumbs "Does that mean he's evil?"

"No it doesn't he was just power hungry."

"What made him stop?"

Aqua gave a soft smile and kissed Orion's helm "His sons and daughter."

"Mid- conquering worlds Primsa decided to bring their children back but instead give birth instead of creating them from thin air. So she ended up getting sparked after Primus returned home from a battle. Then she gave birth to Prima. When Primus came home to meet his son he finally saw what life really was and ended his rage conquering, but still held power I all the worlds he conquered."

She sat next to Orion and he leaned his head on her shoulder. She stroked his back and ran her digits over her son's soft plated metal. "Your grandfather was a great man Cybertron's life force the core of the planet. He is what makes life here possible. You out of all the Primes' children were granted the wisdom of your grandfather and the strength of his armies. You from the beginning of birth were destined a great destiny my son."

"What is my destiny mom, I want to prepare myself."

"Oh Orion you can't prepare yourself for a future that's always changing you just have to embrace it as it come that's the point of life. Living." Orion smiled and kissed his mom cheek.

"Is there any more interesting history I would love to tell Arcee?" Aqua looked at him and placed a servo on his shoulder.

"Arcee is to know none of this. This information is for the eyes for the Primes Families only. It is information that hasn't been spoken of since the Primes took power." Orion nodded his head. Aqua walked over to the table and pressed the middle. A bright blue light filled the room. Orion covered his optics and soon opened them to see his mother glowing. Her head dress and cyber cloth had fallen off leaving her with just her metal plating. Her whole body was surging with blue light.

Orion became concerned and tried to reach his mother, but something stopped him leaving him almost frozen in his spot watching. He looked at the blue light and saw Cybertronian script. He became confused and attempted to read it. Only then the blue light stopped surging through his mother.

"I forgot to mention all the Primess come here to talk to Primsa." Orion guessed that was the only form of communication. Aqua placed her head dress and cyber cloth back and began leading Orion out of the room. They returned to the throne room and shut the secret door heading to their floor. Waiting outside of the door was one of the guards.

He bowed "Primess Aqua Paxious councilman Votor Tuis has requested you and Quintus attend dinner with him and his wife later tonight at the Hall of Cybertron."

"Thank you very much I will inform Quintus." The guard left. Orion was still understanding why his family met with the court and council so often. Orion never really took into account of how much his family was hiding things from him.

He headed up to his room and found Magnus passed out on the couch with a data pad in his hand. Orion turned on the holo TV and changed it to the News.

"Reports are coming in now that the Primes are meeting with court and council members discussing some very secret stuff. So secret they've prohibited camera and broadcasters from following them." Orion listen trying to see if he could gain anything from this.

He shoved Magnus' side. He sat up rubbing his optics. "How long was I out? he asked

"I don't know I just got in here maybe five minutes ago" Magnus nodded and went to grab a drink for him and Orion

"Dad said that the servants were bringing is dinner tonight since him and mom are going out."

"Do you know anything about that, because a guard had a message deliver to mom personally?"

Magnus took a sip of his energon "Same thing with dad. He'd just gotten off the phone with someone from the court discussing something about Primes."

Orion thought for a second 'Maybe something big is going on between them.' He really couldn't think of what possibly could be going on. There wasn't enough information.

"Does this seem a little off to you?" Orion asked

"Yea it does but I can't seem to put my digit on it you know." Orion nodded in a response changing the channel to the next listening to the same report about his family.

Two hours went by and someone knocked on their door. Orion went to open it and Irontrooper was standing there. "Were all meeting in the gallery Prima wants to discuss something with all the children." Orion and Magnus left their floor and followed Irontrooper to the gallery where all the children were waiting. Prima was standing there with his servos behind his back.

"There had been a slight change in your study session with us, we will no longer be able to continue those due to attention needed to CyberCity. Various different things are taking place right now and they require our full attention at all times. Until further notice you will be studying wither personal Tutors we have hired starting two cycles from now."

"What about our training sessions with the primes?" Chrome asked

"We have hired bots for that too, for the time being of course until this no longer requires our undivided attention."
"What is this "problem you keep mentioning?" Orion asked stepping forward a bit.

Prima turned his helm in his direction "You as of right now do not have a right to know, it is classified information." Prima began to walk off

"But this problem is an effect on our learning and training I think we do have the right to know considering we'll be a part of it in a matter of years.'
"Watch you tongue Orion Pax you are still below us and under our order. We are not to reveal anything until we have made an agreement."

"Agreement on what? You can't just keeping giving us hints and not answer." Graveswing spoke up.

"You of all Bots in this room should know some respect and when to keep your mouth shut. We will reveal this when it is all solved. You are dismissed." Prima made his way out of the gallery leaving them in there. Orion frustrated and confused walked out heading to his room. He shut the door and laid down staring up at the ceiling. Magnus walked in with a tray of food.

"I wouldn't worry about it too much it's just temporary."
Orion took the tray and began eating "Yea I know it'd just be nice to have some answers"
"Answers will Come soon hopefully.'
