*Epilogue: Waiting*

Jack had a smile on his face as he is sitting on the living room couch. June noticed his expression, and wondered what got him in a good mood. Jack was just happy about last night's event. The prom night kiss. And he will be graduating in a few days. Things couldn't get any better. Not even the Decepticons would ruin it for him. They are still out there, but no sign of them. Yet, they have plans.

"How much longer do we wait?!" Starscream yelled. "How long?!"

"Silence, you idiot!" Barricade growled. "It takes time for our leader to arrive! It's the only way. We wait." Then, a figure arrived behind them. Starscream and Barricade turned to see their revived leader. Megatron. "Welcome back, Lord Megatron." Barricade said with a bow. Megatron smirked a bit. Starscream wasn't thrilled by the idea of bringing his master back for some time, but he knew it's the only option to speak to the Fallen.

"Where is the boy? Jack Darby?" Megatron asked.

"He is out of our interests, Megatron. Starscream said. "He doesn't have the key to where the Matrix is. Unlike his father."

"No matter. We can still find the Matrix without him." Barricade spoke. "Not even the Witwicky boy."

"Where are those humans now?" Megatron asked. "I want to see them suffer by my clutches! And I want to see Orionna despair when the Darby boy is dead!"

"Lord Megatron, we do not need him!" Starscream argued. Megatron grabbed Starscream by the neck and slam him down. "Megatron! Please! The boy isn't worth it!"

"Oh, he is worth it!" Megatron said with a smirk. "Before we find him, we must pay the Fallen a little visit. He must know more about the boy. The Darby boy is more than you think, Starscream." He releases him and walk away from him and Barricade. "Meet me there. And don't be late!" Megatron transformed and flew up in the sky.

Orionna stood on the cliff, looking at the view of the horizon. It is so peaceful. No Decepticon activity. The Autobots are training the soldiers of how to fight the Decepticons.

"Something on your mind, Orionna? You seem distant." Optimus's voice asked. He stood by her looking at the view himself. "Is it about Jack?"

"Yes and no." Orionna replied. "I was thinking about how we manage to call this planet our new home. It has been for a year. Those who arrive seem to love it so far, but...it will make the other Decepticons follow them."

"This world is full of surprises, Orionna. Whenever we find the activity of the Decepticon, we go out and take him down." Optimus told her. Orionna's optics flash.

"I want Shockwave dead if I ever see him. He will pay for what he had done. My mother could've escaped when she got the chance." She said with a look. "Shockwave must die."

"Orionna, Shockwave is too dangerous for you to face alone. He will kill you in seconds. I wouldn't forgive myself if you try to face him alone." Optimus said. "Whatever happens, do not go out and face the powerful Decepticons alone. I've lost Elita, but I will not lose you." Orionna looked up at her father and nodded. Of course she wouldn't face Shockwave by herself. If she dies, Jack will be devastated. He will be alone.

"I won't do a thing without you." Orionna told him. "I promise."

"Thank you. Now, shall we return to base? Arcee wants to continue to train you." Optimus asked.

"Yes." Orionna and Optimus walked away together. But Optimus stopped to face her. "What is it?"

"Orionna, nothing happened last night, did it?" Optimus asked. "You went out to prom to see Jack. I understand you want to company him, but..." Orionna stared at him. She gave him a serious look and told him a lie.

"Nothing happened."

"Are you sure?"

"...Yes." Orionna told him. Optimus gave her one more look before nodding. He believes her, yet unaware of her lie. They both transformed and drove off to return to base. Orionna got her radio on to listen to music. It is Til All Are One by Stan Bush. The song reminded her of her team and her human friends. They are from a far away world, and their battles were great.

'We are here. We are waiting.' Orionna thought. She and Optimus drove off to the sunset.

*Author's Note: Finally! It's done! Don't worry, there will be a sequel! Sorry if this story is short, but I didn't want to move on to get to the second one already, so I had to end it. The sequel is planned. So, follow me for updates! Thank you for reading!*
