(Disclaimer: I don't own Transformers, they are owned by Hasbro. I am just having fun with them. This takes place in the Transformers Cybertron world, part of the Unicron Trilogy. This is done in conjunction with Zero Fullbuster, whose OC is Lancex Prime. Warning will contain slash and possibly m preg. May also contain some spoilers from TF Cybertron.

Hotshot, Scattershot and Red Alert had returned from almost having been offlined. Prime was stunned to see his men, alive and well though they obviously now had different forms. Optimus knew he had to set out after Starscream who had stolen the Omega Lock with the three keys, but here the Prime was, stuck fighting Megatron and his goons near Niagara Falls. Hotshot and the others stated that they would handle Megatron and Prime could seek out Starscream. Only with great reluctance did Optimus agree.
And while Hotshot and the other two kept fighting Megatron, Optimus headed through the space bridge towards the volcano. As Prime went through space bridge, something triggered a memo deeply buried in his processor. It was of a time long ago when he worked closely with another bot, a younger dark blue gray bot who actually was Optimus' younger brother. Optimus hadn't seen the bot in years, it something about being this close to the Omega lock with three cyber keys in it triggered the memory, but seeing as the cons were still a threat, Optimus snapped out of his musing and prepared to meet Starscream and his con minions on the volcanic island.
Meanwhile, deep in space, Wingsaber wasn't the only bot who felt a strong, strange call to head to earth. Far from Wingsaber was another bot who had been left drifting amongst the stars. He had been sent to a distant quadrant because some dumb bot on Cybertron didn't like the bot. Lancex Prime heard the strange sounded and began to head where it called him. He wasn't particularly fast, as he was weighted down with a vast variety of weapons. Two of his weapons he rarely used and only if he had two. One of them had to deal with his right optic, which purple in coloration and was covered with a specialized metallic optic patch. The other was his multi use weapon known as a god arc. But his most common and well used weapon was his specialized gun. He drew it often and was deadly accurate with it. He looked like he could kill a bot with one sideways glance, but deep under all the weaponry and such, he was a bot who just wanted to be accepted for who he was.
But his appearance and his weaponry was not what he needed right now, he needed to head towards where the sound was guiding him to. He kind of wished his weaponry wasn't so heavy, but it served him well. Lancex also thought of a bot he hadn't seen in millennia – Optimus Prime. Lancex hadn't seen his older brother is so long, but feared he might not see him again with all this fighting. But in hope of what might come, Lancex followed the call. He just hoped it didn't lead into a trap.
