Chapter 1: Arrival

Primus created the 13 original Primes that defeated Unicron. But who says that Unicron also didn't create Primes to counteract Primus's creations? 13 Primes were created to have many traits of their creator and were closer to him than that of Unicron. Unicron created a very small number of his own Primes. Though their whereabouts and histories after the titan was cast aside is unknown and lost in legends and myths, much like the titans themselves.

Megatron was one of these Cybertronians. Megatron made his way around the ship as it floated through Earth's atmosphere. Soundwave was beside him as they wandered through the halls to make it to their posts in the main area. "Have you heard from her?" Megatron almost whispered as he glanced over to Soundwave. The silent mech simply shook his helm. "Radio silence still, it would seem she has been killed or has found it and it is affecting her comm and signal even more. I am hoping it is the latter," Megatron said before they reached the main area. Vehicons were working away at searching for Autobot signatures, some were looking for Energon mines, and others keeping stats of stuff going on amongst the ranks of the Nemesis.

Megatron heard Starscream coming up from behind him before turning around to face the seeker. "My Lord, it seems we have had someone snuck onto our ship and none of our damn vehicon troopers noticed it." Starscream said as he flared his arms around pointing at various vehicon troopers.

"It would seem your systems still have the same flaws in it Starscream," a feminine voice said as she walked up behind the seeker. "An Autobot could easily come in and snuff your spark. Frag I could easily come in here and rip your spark out. ," she said as she walked past him before bowing to Lord Megatron. She was a silverish grey and blueish-purple armor with some hints of black, she stood up fully and was roughly the same height as Soundwave. She turned back to look at the silver seeker, "Though it appears Autobots have already come upon the Nemesis since our Lord is back to being fully alive thanks to their scouts' help. Then again I didn't even know that he had been put into deep stasis and had a gaping hole in his chest. I didn't hear it from you at least," she said as she kept her voice calm but raised it ever so slightly.

Starscream gulped and took a couple of steps back. "I am sorry, I thought I had informed you, apparently the communications could not get to you again," he said nervously. She stepped closer to him before they heard Megatron clear his throat behind them. The pair turned and faced their leader.

"I am sorry my Lord," she said before bowing once again with her hand over her spark chamber. "I am simply not impressed with how Starscream handled things while you were in stasis as well as not alerting me or my brother to come and lead while you were recovery," she said calmly before standing up fully.

"I have already discussed these matters with Starscream," Megatron said as he stepped towards the femme before motioning her to follow him. The femme followed as they walked past Starscream. The duo made it to a meeting room near the helm of the ship. "I take it you have found something while on your task?" Megatron asked.

She nodded before opening her chest plates to reveal something that looked exactly like the legendary Matrix of Leadership but instead it held a dark piece of Energon within its core. "The counterpart to Optimus Prime's Matrix of Leadership," Megatron said with a smirk. "I am glad we found those archives during the fall of Iacon to know of such a relic from Unicron, who would have thought that Alpha Trion hid this knowledge, well done Zagreus," Megatron said as he placed a hand on the femme's shoulder. Zagreus simply smiled and nodded her helm. "Did you come across any other relics of interesting texts while being on Cybertron?"

"Yes, it goes like this, 'and it was written in the covenant of Primus, that when the 47 spheres align a perpetual conflict will culminate in a world forged by chaos. And the weak shall perish because of a rising darkness'" Zagreus recited. "Though there was a portion of the prophecy that was hard to read, something about a hero of light and darkness, or an aspect along those lines. However, by my calculations this prophecy will happen on this planet, rather than many thinking it would come into fruition on Cybertron," she elaborated.

Megatron nodded, "It would seem that the profits would know that someone would come to rule this planet and become a darkness that could rival that of Unicron, perhaps this is presenting that I am Unicron and Optimus resembles that of Primus," Megatron thought.

"It is hard to tell that my lord, the prophecy is very vague for that reason and many thought it was Megatronus Prime as this rising evil that caused Soulus to perish," Zagreus said as she walked the silver warlord pace back and forth. "It was unclear as most of the prophecies that were in that of the covenant as well as other hidden areas on Cybertron. Perhaps it does not mean you at all," she said.

Megatron turned and faced the femme before glaring at her slightly, "You dare doubt that this could be what was destined for me? For me and Optimus to fight like titans to rule a planet."

"I didn't mean to overstep, but I simply do not see you and Optimus as titans wrapped in battle for eons like Unicron and Primus were. Yes you two were close like brothers but also had the same goals that have cultivated into killing each other and harming others in the battle," Zagreus said before feeling her sire move his claw down her cheek creating some sparks with the metal touching. She barely flinched as the silver mech glared into her red optics with his now purple ones. "Perhaps I am simply reading the situation wrong between the both of you my liege," she said as Megatron pulled his hand away

"I am sure you read it wrong due to how you have a growing weak spot for their cause," Megatron taunted as he walked around the femme. "Do not make me regret making my youngest child my true heir," he said before leaving the room. "Remember your destiny as well Zagreus and your place in my future."
