Optimus Prime was sure that he knew his brother Megatron.
However, he had this idea even before the war broke out and he was forced to watch as hundreds of Cybertronians found their death by this tyrant, who Optimus Prime knew as his brother. The once loyal warrior, the protector, now held warlike speeches and incited against other planets, wished them to submit to him and to expand the power of Cybertron.
Are you still my brother, Megatron?
He had changed. Wasn't the one he knew. Ice-cold and obsessed with the Allspark he flew through the portal, where the cube has gone into, sent into space by the Autobots.
The time of no-longer-cognition didn't last long. Soon after, Optimus Prime began to see his brother in a new light. Now he knew how Megatron was. Could predict his steps and the outbursts of anger.

Prime
He was no longer called ,brother' or ,Optimus' like in earlier times. Only the title was important. Even though it hurt Optimus inside, he got used to it. That was just Megatron. Not the old one, but the new one.
Optimus made himself ready for a serious time when it was said that he had to govern alongside his brother. How should he deal with this new Megatron? He was unpredictable and not interested in the topics that were discussed. When he looked at it closely then Megatron had probably difficulty to stay awake. So it was all the more surprising when Megatron said something, which Optimus never would have expected anymore.
I see, Opt… Prime
He tried to cover it, had avoided his gaze, as if he would be ashamed of himself for his gaffe. But it was not as easy as initially thought. It was not just a simple system failure. This should be the harbinger. The first change.
Optimus was suspicious. He was it not often, but when he was, then he had to investigate. Since his conversation with Megatron over the Allspark, where they had also talked about Sam Witwicky, his brother's behavior was weird.
Lately Megatron is so... nice
I think I heard him laugh, not his evil laugh, if you know what I mean
Sometimes he stares out the window and is completely absent
Earlier, he inquired about the health of my family
He grinned into his claw! I saw it!
Optimus Prime was, to say at least, shocked. These were all things that the new Megatron would have never done. These were behaviors of the old one. Did this mean that his brother, whom he thought lost, came back again?
Why?
It couldn't be the influence of his position. Despite of it Megatron was unhappy. You didn't have to be his brother to guess that. His constant lousy mood was decisive.
Once again he went through everything that could serve as a reason. But each time he came to the same conclusion. It was because of the conversation about the Allspark.
Hasn't he told you anything?
The Allspark just told him things that were of concern for his position. Reassuring words were often added in these narrations, too. Could it really be the influence of Allspark? Whatever he might have told him?
The boy! He talks all the time, ceaselessly. I cannot persuade him to quit and apparently he likes to make me angry. The way he's is sitting there as if he would throne over everybody with these bold face of his...
An insult. He wanted to make fun out of him… there wasn't anything else he could have meant. The boy, or Samuel Witwicky, jumped down in front of his nose before he could reach him, and crashed to the ground. An innocent child who was caught up in their war. And it was his fault. The sight of the blood-covered body haunt him sometimes when he shut down his eyes sensors for a few seconds.
Sam is not here anymore. He died for you
When this fact was true what meant then this statement of Megatron? Was it really just that: a joke? Then why did his brother looked so frightened himself when he mentioned...
Hasn't he told you anything? Hasn't he told you anything? Hasn't he told you anything?
An echo. Chaos. Confusion. And then clarity. Determination. No matter what he had to do, he would find out the reason of Megatron's strange behavior and about the shadow his brother seems to see.
That he swore to himself.
