Chapter 3: Peace
There was also another, a completely different world.
Here the great war between the Autobots and the Decepticons, the conflict that was going on for nine million years and that ripped Cybertron apart…
…never happened.
After the liberation from the Quintessons and the end of the slavery, the worker and the warrior lines of Cybertron solved their differences peacefully.
Like in so many other worlds, the warriors wanted to expand. They were however less fanatical about it than in the most other dimensions. Instead of conquering other worlds to build up their own empire, they settled to just colonize inhabited planets.
So, even without the imperialism of the group who would have called itself the Decepticons, the cybertronian race and it´s influence was spreading.
Cybertron had been at peace for millions of years.

Ultra Magnus laid the data card aside. He had just red the beginning of the report about the last time-line.
Peace, no war between the Autobots and the Decepticons. The thought was really alluring. It was something that the Autobots in his world had always wished for.
He knew of course that this wouldn´t remove the other threats like Unicron and the Quintessons.
As much destruction and harm the Transformer civil war had caused, Magnus was willing to admit that it, at least for the Autobots, had also done something good to prepare them for this threats. He knew that, at least in the way they had originally been created, barely one of his faction would have willingly become soldiers.
Something like him, a warrior Autobot, would probably not even exist in this world and the defense of the planet would be left only to the Decepticons.
And maybe this would not be enough.
He continued to read the rest of the report.
Like he had thought, Cybertron had at one point come into a war with the Quintessons
and Unicron had found the planet some day.
To his surprise however, he also red that not only became Orion Pax Optimus Prime at some point, but also were his friend Dion, Ariel and the much younger Autobot Hotrod been upgraded into
Himself, Elita One and Rodimus, however under completely different circumstances as it happened in his world.
Primus was involved, he thought, he had to, to give them a fighting chance.
And he didn´t thought of that in the religious sense, by far not. They knew by now that Primus actually existed and that he sometimes interferred in the lives of his creations, to protect them from Unicron.
In the end, this Transformers had survived, but with horrible losses.
The war against the Quintessons was devestating and so would be Unicron´s attack.
But despite everything, they would manage to survive.
Ultra Magnus put the report away. This was all very interesting.
In first line to compare all this to his own world.
But what they were looking for, an interference in the timeline, was not to find.
At least that dimension was now relatively safe, he thought.
They would continue their investigation somewhere else.
