Hello everybody! I'm back! Sorry for not updating this, but my laptop is starting to shift into its last stages of life because I haven't been able to go on the Internet or do anything on it for that matter not to mention I've been really busy with MCAS and A-Net tests, too. Anyways, here's another chapter and I hope you guys like this new one too, but forgive me if it's not too good because I've knid of ran out of ideas for this one.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything to do with Transformers Prime or the characters, but my OC's. BTW Andromeda and Astoria are actual characters in the world of Transformers, so I don't own them.

A Few Hours Later…

Eventually, I woke up to see black with a slight hint of blue in the night sky with radiant stars twinkling up high at night. I could easily see the constellations and at that moment, I let my mind wander and think about what it would be like to be a star shining for all to see. Never have I ever been able to be at peace like this for a long time. All of the peace and quiet vanished when I received a comm. link from Ratchet.

:Ratchet to Phoenix do you copy?:

:Yes, I copy, Ratchet. What do you want?:

:There's been a disturbance that you and Saturn need to come down and see. It's very urgent.: I sighed in annoyance as I sat upright.

:I'm on my way in a few minutes, Ratchet. Phoenix out.: I ended the conversation through my comm. link.

I shook Saturn awake and explained to her what Ratchet just told me through our twin bond. Groggily, she ran with me down to the Common Room where everyone was crowded around Ratchet holding grim expressions on their faceplates.

"What's the problem, Ratchet?" Saturn asked with concern showing across her face, but I remained impassive.

"The Matrix of Leadership is not strong enough to keep Unicron in stasis much longer. I'm afraid Unicron is going to terminate all life living on Earth." Optimus answered grimly from his spot next to Ratchet. I sighed heavily knowing what is going to happen today.

"So, what are we going to do about it?" Firestar asked determinedly and his gaze hardened as he tried to come up with something.

"I believe we should use the All Spark destroy Unicron's spark. It seems to be the only option left," Chromia suggested worriedly. Suddenly, the All Spark starts screeching so loud that everyone cringes and immediately try to cover their audio receptors in pain. "Okay, okay, I take it back!" Chromia shouted above the screeching and it immediately stopped. Everyone sighed in relief, including the humans.

"Since we can't use the All Spark against Unicron, what other bright ideas are we left with?" Arcee asked worriedly and everyone turned to Optimus. I sighed inwardly at what I was about to do. I knew that I couldn't keep this charade much longer and that they deserved to know about the dream.

"Everyone," I called gaining everyone's attention, "there's something I've been meaning to tell you guys about for awhile, now." I closed my optics gathering up as much courage I could and let out a deep breath.

"Well, what is it?" Ironhide asked gruffly, but I could tell that he is just as worried and curious as everyone else.

"Remember the time when I went 'offline'?" I asked hesitantly because I knew this is a touchy topic and I was right since everyone tensed.

"Yeah, but what does that have to do with anything?" Bulkhead asked confused as he scratched his helm awkwardly. I told them all about the dream I received from Alpha Trion that nearly killed me explaining to them about how me and my siblings' are supposed to defeat Unicron for the last time.

"But, why you six?" Sideswipe asked nervously and I hesitated for a moment.

"Because…it's our destiny." I finished quietly and I looked up to see Optimus's blue eyes to see them full of sadness and determination.

"Do you truly wish to do this, Phoenix?" Optimus asked with his voice layered with grief and I nearly cringed at the sound, but even if I didn't want to do this, I know I have to do it. Not trusting my voice, I only nodded my head with my blue optics shining with determination. He sighed heavily knowing that there was nothing he could do to change my mind.

"Optimus, you can't be serious! There has to be another way!" Sunstreaker exclaimed with disbelief and concern mixed together. Optimus shook his head never once tearing his gaze away from mine and in his optics; I could see how much he's reluctant to let us do this.

"I'm afraid there isn't anything I can do, Sunstreaker. It is not my decision to make for them. Who am I to against what has been decided centuries ago?" Optimus answered forlornly. "When do you plan to leave?" Optimus asked me gently.

"I'm not sure, perhaps tomorrow or in an hour. I must discuss this with my siblings," I replied quietly and I turned my gaze towards Saturn, but what I saw was spark wrenching. Bumblebee and Saturn both stared at each other with so much love and sadness that I nearly crumpled to the floor in an emotional breakdown. It was just so sad that I had to turn away from them and walk towards the roof to clear my head. After I climbed up to the roof and sat down, I heard the sound of the hatch opening up with the sound of footsteps coming towards my spot.

"Hey, sis." Meteor said, but I remained silent as I looked up at the brilliant night sky with my arms wrapped around my knees and my wings drooping behind me. I heard the shifting of gears and I could sense he is seating next to me on my right side.

"Listen, I'm sorry for what I said back at the barn. I was just worried about how close you and Optimus were getting, and I went overboard with the whole 'overprotective brother' thing. I realize that now, it's just…this is the first time I've ever seen you getting serious about a relationship. It's hard to see your two little sisters growing up when you've missed out on 10 years of their life cycle and I saw how much you and Optimus cared about each other downstairs as well, as how much Bumblebee and Saturn really loved each other. I'm really sorry. Can you forgive me?" Meteor apologized and I looked deep into his optics to see that he truly meant it. I smiled weakly followed by a nod.

"Yeah, I forgive you." I answered quietly as I forced back my tears. Meteor smiled and pulled me into a tight embrace like the way he used to do when we were sparklings.
