AN: Just reposting after years. Some light edits. The story connected to this is still being played with.
The legend has gone through so very many evolutions and changes that no one is really sure how Primus and Unicron were created, and how they fought and how they ended up being trapped in their sleep. It all depends on who you asked who you asked or where you read it. But still, the legend continues to float around, continues to be told and changed and rewritten.
But what is the truth? What really happened?
In the beginning, as cliche as it sounds, there was the Balance. Light and Dark, Good and Evil, Peace and War, Calm and Chaos were all in one being who was fast becoming tired of holding It's mind together. So when It felt the time was right, It dipped into the future of Their territory and discovered Their grandchildren, figuring out what it needed to do.
It created it's children. But despite what all the stories say, there was not just Primus and his brother, his twin, Unicron.
There were three.
Three gods that would keep the balance. Primus, the Light God, Unicron, the Dark God and Vida, the Balanced God.
I'll get to why you never heard about Vida in a moment, let me tell the story.
It's job done, the Balanced One made sure that Their children understood what they were to do while controlling the territory, their piece of space. After that, It left, moving onto Its next life. Primus and Unicron set out to create a home while the youngest set about checking out nearby territories, making contact with other Gods and learning how they were going about making their worlds and their creations and children. He brought this information back to his brothers, who used it to create Cybertron and the first 13 Cybertronians.
It wasn't long before Primus and Unicron were fighting against one another though, even as their children multiplied and grew. No one knew what they were fighting for, why they had a burning passion to destroy the other the way they were. Even Vida didn't know, didn't want to know. The battle was long, hard and unfortunately destroyed the first Cybertron, leaving the Balance god to protect those still alive and the 13 Primes, as they had been named. He had to wipe the memories of the fight, of the first Cybertron and of himself as Primus forced his twin into a deep sleep, before shifting into a home for their children.
After making sure the Cybertronians were happy and living well, he forced himself and Unicron into the Astral plane, connected by only the thinnest of threads to their original plane.
Vida did what he had to do, wiping the memories of the Cybertrons, but he also created the AllSpark from pieces of the three Gods sparks. Implanting the suggestion that it was older than even the 13 Primes themselves, he left the world after making sure that he was wiped out from every record. He took his place amongst the newest sparklings that were being sparked, knowing that he needed to watch his brother's children closely and to make sure that Unicron never awoke from his forced sleep.
After all, what better way to watch then to join?
