A/N my favorite out of this 3 parter is definantly the third one, mainly because its mostly on cybertron and the first appearance of an insecticon, epicness!

anyhoo i hope i can match that epicness ;)

Orion Pax Part 1

I lay on my bed as i stared at the ceiling, as i tried to get my head around the fact that dad wasn't here, I'd remained in my room since yesterday and already it was mid-afternoon, i was still summarising about dad's current situation, though unsure about every detail i do know this, he has reverted to his pre-prime state, to Orion pax and he's alive and to still be alive even now, megatron clearly wants him for something.

The only thing i am now summarising is how to restore his memories, okay, vector sigma is located on cybertron...

"Scorponok."

a-and the only w-way to get to cybertron is by...

"He saved my life, in exchange for his, thanks to him i get to see my baby girl."

b-by t-the...a-a spacebridge...

"And what about my daddy? Did he not want to see his baby girl?"

I held my head in frustration, god forsaken memories why do you resurface now? I then grabbed my pillow and i buried my face into it, making humming noises to try and block them out.

No luck...i can still hear my own cries of my five year old self.

Perhaps because dad's gone the memories of my biological father have caught up...hmm i remember him very clearly there is no blur or pieces of a memory i remember every second i spent with him, every word he spoke, his smell, his voice.

i remember him as my hero every kid does at that age, but it felt a bit different with me, he lead a whole army, yeah that's pretty awesome, but the thing with me was when he wore his uniform, it encouraged me to strife towards that, to be like him, his personality was much like 'optimus's' except a little less robotic.

Thinking about it makes me laugh a little...

He'd tell me stories and I'd ask him many questions and he'd always answer in the most inspirational way. To me he was the definition of a leader, he'd praise his soldiers for the smallest of things, he'd take personal responsibility for failures, he never felt he was better or worse than anyone else, he would listen to other ideas, and he even had a sense of humour.

But of course, it seems to be that the good people are the ones to die.

Shortly after my mom died, dad sent me home to live with Sam witwicky and his family. Of course i was naturally depressed but I'd grown to like it mainly because of Sam, he took me everywhere and he wasn't ashamed of me, you know with little kids mostly being embarrassing and annoying he said i wasn't. He was like a brother...but then i got involved with the autobots through Sam.

And it wasn't until the huge fight in mission city that i found out my dad was already dead before i had even met the autobots...he was among the few survivors of the Soccent base attack in Qatar, where blackout was acquiring information.

The group were making their way to some sort of communication through the desert, until scorponok attacked. A few were killed among them was dad, he took...a blow through the chest from scorponok's tail, saving will.

His wounds were fatal and he died in wills arms, when i saw will and his team after the battle i was so excited as i ran to him, asking if dad was near and what not, none of them could look at me i was a kid yes, but i wasn't stupid enough to realise that something had happened to him.

i was distraught upon hearing the news of course you always think your dads invincible, but then the crashing weight of reality wakes you up to the fact that he is human, and not superman. I remember doing nothing but run until i clinged to the first thing that came in my path, a lamppost, and did nothing but cry, and scream angrily too.

Yes I have to admit i was angry too, will's daughter has a mother and a father and i always selfishly couldn't help but question why he lived instead of my dad a question i like to keep to myself, i am glad that will got to see his family really i am, but i secretly sometimes got jealous every time i saw the three of them together, not that I'd change this life for anything but i always wondered what it would be like if the outcome was different.

Especially at that moment...i had nothing...five years old and feeling like the loneliest girl on the planet, until Optimus saved me...yes Optimus... my dad, why should i have felt any kind of jealously? How stupid of me, I had him and that's all i needed along with everyone else who i considered family.

I then sat up from my bed...so my mind wanted to recall those memories for a reason, though i couldn't do anything to save my biological father...i can do something now.

He's still alive... and this time i can save him.

I couldn't help but smile, my confidence restored i can defiantly do this now! Now let me think...ah that's right the spacebridge, so...

Then i heard this huge smashing sound coming from the main room, i swiftly got out of bed and made my way down the hall, just think like dad, well not too much like dad i don't wanna lose my sense of humour.

"We don't actually know what Optimus would have done, because he's not here!" i heard bulkhead yell.

"You're pretty good at stating the obvious bulk, anything else you'd like to mention that we already know?" Arcee confronted bulkhead, already the tension is rising? It seems the whole balance of things can be easily broken.

"Nothing i can say in front of the children." Bulkhead retaliated.

"hey." I said as all eyes briefly looked in my direction, "there's allot of tension in here. Anything happen?" i then asked.

"The cons were able to get their hands on the last piece to their spacebridge." Ratchet bitterly said. "Along with us possibly being shut down."

"Shut down? Why?" i simply asked.

"Humans were injured during the decepticon attack." Ratchet then said.

"Did you not evacuate all humans before engaging them?" i asked.

"No, we acted quickly in...Does it matter? What matters is Optimus and because Arcee was unable to locate him whilst on the nemi..." he started before i interrupted him.

"Hold on, Arcee you were on the nemesis? Alone?" i asked looking in her direction.

"After the decepticons got their hands on the item i pursued them in their own groundbridge and tried to locate Optimus." She told me.

I then thought for a moment with my arms crossed, i should've been here much earlier i didn't realise how desperate they would get already. "So you left your comrades to fend off the remaining decepticons, then engaged the enemy alone, outnumbered on their warship?" i asked calmly.

"Optimus would've tried to rescue any of us if we were in danger." She retaliated giving me a slight glare.

"As a team yes, not alone. What were you planning to do when you finally located him? Megatron would've made the autobots out as the enemy to dad and he would've either refused to go with you or he would be hesitant, enough time for reinforcements to arrive, in short what you did was foolish Arcee." I told her calmly.

"And what was i supposed to do?" Arcee yelled at me. "We don't even know if he's truly alive or safe from harm." She said solemnly.

"I know he's alive for certain and i will tell you how i know this, if megatron wanted to terminate him he would've done so already, they couldn't get Intel from him for obvious reasons, and dad used to work in the iacon hall of records as an archivist. Perhaps megatron has use for him in that department." They all mostly gazed their eyes to the floor taking in the possibilities. "..we can't assume the worst. The only objective here is to somehow get to cybertron, find vector sigma and restore the matrix. I know we all care deeply for dad, but the only way to help him is to put aside those feelings and focus on the job at hand." I told them.

"Right and we're overlooking one positive, what the cons just got there claws on." Jack then said standing by my side.

"Yes, we managed to allow them to finally acquire a power source for their space bridge!" Ratchet yelled still pretty wind up tight about the whole situation.

I saw where jack was going with this.

"And how exactly would that be a positive?" Arcee asked.

"We let them finish building their space bridge." I said smiling at jack as he smiled at me.

"Why? So they can bring back more zombies from cybertron?" bulkhead yelled.

"No. so we can commandeer it and use it to send me and jack to cybertron." I told them.

"Whoa. That's a pretty good idea." Miko said.

Arcee then laughed mockingly "Oh well if miko thinks it's a good idea."

"Arcee, no one said this will be easy, but you've all seized a space bridge before." I said to her.

"We blew one up. That's a whole lot different than the three of us seizing it and holding one." Bulkhead said.

"We'd have to find it first." Bee said.

"Bee's right we'd have to find that thing first." Arcee said.

"Uh, hello! If it's a space bridge isn't it..." Miko said as she pointed upwards.

"The term space refers to its transport range not its physical location! And we've been monitoring earth's orbit since the last one, we'd know if it were there!" Ratchet groaned.

"So the bridge could be somewhere here on earth." Jack said.

"Like trying to find a servo in a scrap yard." Bulkhead said.

"Then maybe we'd better start looking." Arcee said in a much calmer state of mind.

"Ratchet try to find any possible energon spikes, then each of you can scout those areas." I said.

They all looked dumbfounded at me, the way they looked at me, i felt like an idiot.

"Look i know you mean well Ellen, but i'm not taking orders from a child." Arcee said.

I then sighed, "Look, i thought i would be able to prove myself to you without the permission slip from dad but..." i started.

"But what? What permission?" Arcee said.

"I'm taking dads place, he instructed me to do so, to keep you all in line." I said confidently.

"What?" they all said in unison as well as June and miko.

"I know you all think i'm just a child but you have faith in dad and this is his decision...just think it as that." I said as i was cut down a bit from the lack of faith, i have confidence in myself that i can do this...but if no one is willing to follow you that doesn't really help.

With the long silence i decided to finally ask "will you be willing to follow me?" i asked as I looked at them all, they had doubt all over their faces, as i didn't break eye contact with them, minutes went by as complete silence.

Then my eyes met with ratchets as he looked me up and down, he then nodded, "I'll follow you." He said.

I put on a half smile, "okay, only because dad said so right?"

"No, all of us have shown poor judgment in handling the situation, and during all this you're the only one who speaks reason and hasn't lost her head, so I'll gladly listen to you." He said i'm surprised at his lack of stubbornness.

Arcee sighed, "He's right, I've been reckless this whole time and never thought things through, so maybe it's time i put aside the human thing and focus on just you...and thinking about that alone, I'll follow you."

"I'll follow you, unlike Arcee as long as you point me in a direction I'll listen to anyone, well except fowler." Bulkhead said.

Bumblebee then gave me a thumbs up.

I smiled "i could need some advice; after all i'm pretty inexperienced." I said to Ratchet.

"I'll help you in anyway i can...so you were saying i should start searching for any energon spikes?" he then said.

"yes, then we'll scout those area's for any sign regarding the space bridge, myself included, and we must act swiftly because tragically megatron may be using dad to give the decepticons the upper hand." I said.

The search begins...

A/N did anyone watch the amazing spiderman? i liked it, though i thought the lizard's face could be a bit more lizard like, because to me his head looked like the green version of the thing, but i'm rambling.

off to cybertron we go in the next chapter, well eventually lol. Please R + R :D
