Optimus knew that he and his fellow Autobots where in trouble the moment the humans turned up after Optimus and his team had scanned alternative forms so that they could better hide among the humans. Optimus sent a short com signal to the Autobots, : Autobots don't engage the humans otherwise we would be no better that the Decepticons.: The other Autobots sent pings of agreement, Optimus was relieved when the humans seemed to have a leader, which nearly caused the Autobots to attack, for the leader was Megatron.

Lennox saw the fear in the Autobots' eyes- optics he corrected himself, but he was confused because he had come here expecting a fight for these mass murdering cybertronians, but what he got was a quiet surrender from these bots, which troubled him deeply, but he did not have time to ponder the question because Megatron had shown up. "About slagging time" he muttered. Megatron started questioning the lead bot, Lennox notice how regal the Autobot leader looked. Lennox then started to pay attention to conversation that was taking place. " So, Optimus," Lennox notice that Megatron had put a lot of hate into saying the other's name. "you and your murderous troops have followed us to harm this world, and destroy the Allspark the only way to save our planet?" Megatron paused. Optimus said "brother, you know I..." Megatron cut Optimus off and turn to his troops and the human troops with regret in his optics, but Lennox saw something else completely in the optics of the Decepticon leader, Lennox glanced at Epps, Epps had seen it to. Megatron continued his speech "Decepticons, Humans it gives me great pain to say this but to end this war, Optimus, my brother and his troops will have to be executed." Optimus was about to say something when Megatron punched him in the stomach, the Autobot leader fell into recharge. The other Autobots went with Megatron and his troops after that.

-one year later-
Emily was getting ready went she saw he dad in her mirror, "Hey dad." "Hey, sweetheart." replied Major Will Lennox. "Dad do we have to go to this execution?" Will sighed and replied "yes sweetheart, it's mandatory for all humans and Decepticons alike. The Autobots will be give a swift death sweetheart. then Megatron will go back to his own home and rebuild." Emily pouted, but he dad had a point. so she finish what she was doing and join her mother, father, and little sister, Annabelle.

-at the execution field-
The Lennox family took their seats, it was crowed but organized, the entire population of the human race gathered in one place. that was part of the reason the execution was put off for so long because they had too get everything ready. After everyone had arrived and settled down, Megatron walked out onto the giant stage. there was robust applause for the savior of the Earth. Emily finally got a good look at the Decepticon leader, and instantly knew that her fellow humans had made a mistake, by trusting the Decepticons. Emily tried to catch her dad's eye but the ceremony had started.
