Chapter Two
The Chosen One

It was the second day after Prime's death. The autobots where still trying to figure out what to do while Magnus was fuming over the matrix not choosing him, when a long lost bot decided to make an appearance.

"Transform, hey guys what's up, why is every body in the base?" Sideburn asked as he walked up to the group.

"Where in tarnashion have you been Sideburn?" X-Brawn practically yelled

"I've been out." Sideburn answered "Why?"

"We've only been trying to contact you for the last 2 day's." Prowl stated "Just to let you know we had our biggest battle with the decepticons 2 day's ago."

"What you had a battle and I missed it!" Sideburn wined "Stupid com."

"What do you mean Sideburn?" Tai asked

"I mean is that while I was on patrol my com got knocked out some how and I came in to get it repaired before heading back out again." Sideburn responded.

"Little brother... we have something to tell you." X-Brawn said in a nerves voice.

"What's that brow?" Sideburn asked in a calm voice

"Primes dead Sideburn." X-Brawn say's

"WHAT!!" Sideburn yells, "That's not possible Prime cant be dead, he just can't be."

"Your brother is telling the truth Sideburn" Magnus stats "Prime is dead"

"No" is all that Sideburn can find to say as Magnus steps away from in front of the matrix so Sideburn can the truth.

"I wont except is" Sideburn suddenly yells, "I wont."

With this he quickly transforms and hightails it out of the base.

"Sideburn!" Prowl yells as he starts to follow his little brother, but finds that he his soon held back by X-Brawn who is holding his shoulder.

"Let him go Prowl, he has to except this on his own there's nothing you or I can do right now." X-Brawn say's in a soft quite voice filled with sadness.

"All right." Prowl answer, though he doesn't stop worrying about him and nether dose X-Brawn.

For 2 day's they had no contact with Sideburn, and they where planning there trip back to Cibertron.

"Then it's all settled, we leave for cibertron in 3 hr." Tai stats

"What about Sideburn?" prowl asks

"We will have to just go out and look for him." X-Brawn answers

"That wont be necessary" Mirage say's as he points to the entrance. Everyone looks over just in time to see Sideburn transform and walk up to Magnus.

"We where just comming to look for you." X-Brawn says. Side burn dosent answere he just looks at the matrix with saddened eyes.

"Thitsen Sideburn we have something to tell you."X-Brawn said

"what is it" Sideburn answers

"We are going back to Cibertron." X-Brawn sais

"Everyone!" Sideburn says shocked

"Yes, and that includes you Sideburn." X-Brawn says

"No!!" Sideburn yells

"What!" Everybody else yells

"I said I am not going back to cibertron and that is final." Sideburn answers smoothly

"Why" Both his brothers ask at once

"Because I refuse to leave this planet in the hands of the Decepticons" Sideburn answers back "Do you plain on telling that you where just going to leave and let the Decepticons pithier this world and leave it in ruins."

Everybody looks like a little kid caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

"Well I for one will not have it... if you do this I am out you may not care what happens to this planet but I do and I am going to stay here and defend it." Sideburn turns his back to the group and looks at the matrix. Behind him everybody is silent with very ashamed looks on their faces.

"Since when did you become so right going Sideburn?" Magnus questions

"I don't know, all I do know is that if we leave this planet we will not only be betraying the people of this world we swore to protect but we will also be betraying Optimus." Sideburn answers "He gave his life for this world... and we would be betraying him by leaving it defenseless against the Decepticons."

"He's right" Hot Shot, says "But some of us do have to go back to cibertron in order to find the next prime."

Everyone gets very thoughtfully looks, as they try and figure out who they are doing send back to Cibertron and who to leave and earth to protect it.

Sideburn ignoring everyone and thing around him is just looking at the matrix. Getting a strange urged, he quickly reaches down and picks up the matrix before Ultra Magnus can stop Him. Magnus's yell startles everyone so that they turn and look, just in time to see Sideburn turn around with the matrix in hand.

Sideburn takes on last look at the matrix before tacking a strong gripe on its sides and pulls... As the team washes the matrix slides easily open for him and a deep voice resonates from within the matrix 'Arise Rodimus Prime' when that the bright light that had engulfed Sideburn dissipates and a new red form is standing before them.

"Sideburn?" X-Brawn asks

"No, I am now Rodimus Prime" Rodimus answers "I am now the leader of the Autobots."

Everyone just stares at him in utter aw that is except Magnus who as a look like he has just been cheated out of some thing that should have been his.
