Vengence
By J.T. Magnus, "Turbo"


I died that day.
I survived physically, but who I am died.
And that's why I fight.

The mask I wear is a physical manifestation of the mask I show the universe.
On the outside, it's freedom, peace, and protecting the innocent...
Honestly, there's very little that would make me feel better than launching an all out assault on their base...

But the only reason I don't is that I don't want my comrades to become like them, to fall as I have.

He killed me.
He killed him.
He killed her.

He's still dead, but his killer lives.
She and I live, but we're dead, and our killer lives.

Sometimes I hope to wake up and find that the last several million Earth years are a cyberdream.
To go to the Energon Warehouse.
To study with Ratchet.
To be with Ariel and Dion again...
But he killed Orion Pax...
And I'm all that's left...

"One shall stand, one shall fall..."

The killer glares at me, "Why do you throw away your life so recklessly, Prime?"

My life?

My life ended millennia ago at the barrel of your fusion cannon, Megatron...

"That's a question you should ask yourself, Megatron."

It's time to return the favor...
