Sour
Negotiations had gone sour, every ambassador's worst nightmare, and it was only through the Autobots' intervention that the world's major cities weren't molten slag and millions of innocent people killed.
On the bright side, nearly every human on earth was willing to accept the Bots' protective presence on earth now. Unfortunately, there was still the problem that there might not be an earth to protect anymore if the new alien species got their way.
Sometimes problems couldn't be talked out, sometimes fighting was the only option, even if the chances of winning were slim to none.
