Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers Prime. I only own the OC George Edwards/Bladewolf.


As we carefully walked through the dead Cybertron's lands, we kept our guard up to make sure that nothing got the drop on us. We then saw an open courtyard which had statues of Megatron on the top of each of the wall's corners.

"Megatron just loves stroking his ego." I said, getting nods of agreement from Arcee and Jack.

Anyway, we walked into the courtyard all the while keeping an eye out for anything that would come out at us. I then looked at the Key that Jack had in his hands and shone brighter than ever, I then looked down and saw that several small pieces of rubble were shacking. The others saw it too and we then turned left to see a door rise up from the ground with the same engravings as Vector Sigma's key.

"Imagine the irony." I chuckled. "Megatron was probably hunting for Vector Sigma for ages, unaware that it was directly below his feet."

Arcee chuckled. "The cruel irony."

The doors then opened showing us the way down, and it was a long way down might I add. Suddenly I tensed as I had the feeling we were being watched. I then whirled around and blasted something above us before jumping back as it landed and revealed itself.

An Insecticon.

"Oh great, an Insecticon." I groaned before I contacted Ratchet. "Ratchet! We've just ran into an Insection!"

"Seriously?!" Jazz and Cliffjumper shouted before I heard them shiver.

Arcee and I fired at the Insecticon, but it proved to be more stronger in armor than normal Decepticon warriors. Insecticons always freaked me out in the Fall of Cybertron video game. They didn't look as bad in the G1 animated show, because they looked like toys then, but they have become more scarier over the years.

Arcee dashed at it and tried to cut it with her wrist blades but were met with the same result as my Blaster. I then ran at the 'Con and leaped, but the 'Con leaped as well and tackled me right out of the air and we tumbled into a roll before the Insecticon managed to throw me into the wall, hard.

"That hurt." I muttered before I looked to see Arcee be backhanded by the Insecticon and felt her pain through our bond.

'Okay, 'Con... now it's personal.'

I stood and unsheathed my swords, getting the Insecticon's attention and it hissed at me as it entered a stance, as did I. "Jack, go now!"

"No George!" Arcee leaped onto the Insecticon's back and got it's attention. "Both of you go! I'll hold it off for as long as I can!"

"Seriously?!" Jack responded.

"What he said." I added.

"George, I'll handle this. Keep Jack safe at all times, at least 1 of us can stay with him. Now go!" My girlfriend ordered, and I wasn't in any authority to deny.

Stay safe. I told her through the bond before I grabbed Jack, transformed and drove through the doorway into Vector Sigma. All the while hoping that Arcee will be ok.


I eventually let Jack out and transformed, just in case the engine noise attracts whatever vermin was in here. The last thing I needed was to be attacked by Scraplets when I couldn't transform back to human mode right now due to the atmosphere. Actually, I didn't know if Techno-Organics could survive it, but I wasn't going to test it out anytime soon.

Jack and I walked through the halls, which didn't have much other than scrap metal and that was pretty much it. I looked up on the wall and saw a familiar mark on it. Apparently Jack saw it too.

"Great." He said sarcastically.

"I'm almost glad I wasn't there at the base when the Scraplets started munching on it." I remarked.

"It wasn't fun." Jack shook his head and grabbed a small bar just in case. Better having something as a weapon than having nothing at all. We then kept walking as I switched weapons to an EDK Techvolt and cocked it while we walked deeper down the halls. As we kept going, we came across a dead end and Jack was about to turn around but I put a foot in front of him to stop him. The doors then opened and we walked in with Jack behind me and saw it was a very larger room.

"Bladewolf to everyone... we're in." I announced on the radio, causing a small cheer from the humans and Autobots. Jack then placed the Key on the ground and it then began to shift to its normal size and then we felt that we were being pulled back to the door and saw that Vector Sigma was starting to stand itself upright. Jack and I anticipated this and leaped off and landed on our feet, and took in the sheer size of Vector Sigma and took a few steps back.

"This is… wow." He gasped in amazement. "Commencing download… I think." He said to everyone on the line. I then looked around and made sure that there was nothing around here that could jump out and surprise us. It was like a 6th sense when you thought about, and I could thank Arcee for that. "This is taking a while." He said aloud.

"Well this is the collective knowledge of the Primes, Jack. Of course it will." I stated as I looked back behind us and heard a whirring sound and saw multiple Scraplets at the edge of the doorway. "Oh bugger, why now?"

"What?" Jack turned and his eyes widened when he saw the Scraplets as well. The little buggers then saw me, as well as Vector Sigma, and of course... they swarmed right at me. I fired my Techvolt at them and brought out my other one and fired when my first one was reloading. The little vermin either started to chew on Vector sigma… or me.

Jack was desperately trying to get them off me and Vector Sigma but he knew he isn't doing much.

"Jack, what is it?" June asked.

"Augh, Scraplets!" I answered while fighting them off and being bitten.

"What's a Scraplet?" She asked again.

"Why did it have to be Scraplets!?" Bulk said aloud.

"Of course, out of all the things it just had to be Scraplets!" Hound somewhat answered Bulkhead's question.

"If they chew through Vector Sigma before the Matrix reloads…" Ratchet said trailing off, for us knowing what the answer will be. All this will be for naught.

And we would've came here for nothing.

I tried to get the little pests off but it was no use, I had to keep firing into the swarm and try and eliminate as many as I can. But I felt myself getting weaker, and so was Vector Sigma. Jack saw what was happening to it as well.

"Oh, no, no, no! Don't quit now!" Jack said frantically, looking at Vector Sigma.

I kept trying to get the Scraplets off Vector Sigma and myself at the same time, but I was growing incredibly weak due to how much they were chewing into me. It wouldn't be long before they managed to tear my limbs off and feast on the insides. I was leaking Energon like a bleeding pig, and it wasn't fun.

I then saw a light at the end of the tunnel we came through and saw an Insecticon change into robot mode and walked in our direction. Then an idea came to me.

"Jack! Throw a Scraplet at it!" I said and in which he caught on with what I had in mind. He grabbed one of them that was chomping on me aimed at the Insecticon.

"HEY GUYS!" He said aloud. "THE MAIN COURSE!" He called before tossing the Scraplet in hand at the Insecticon. The other Scraplets that chewed on me and Vector Sigma stopped, and looked at the Insecticon before flying towards it with the intent to feed. The Insecticon was then consumed in the cloud of vermin and then fell of the bridge down into the abyss below. Jack then turned his attention to me and rushed to my side. I fell back on my aft but kept by arms back so I could sit up clutching my left side in pain. We then turned to Vector Sigma and saw it was finished downloading, it then started to shift back into its original position in which I gestured Jack to grab the Key. He then rushed to the center and grabbed it before coming back to me.

"We got the Matrix." He said.

"Good." I groaned in pain and just laid on my back. "Get out of here, Jack."

"No, I'm not leaving you." He argued.

"Jack... I'm leaking Energon badly. I'll only slow you down, and I don't think I'd be able to make it out of here in vehicle mode fast enough. Go on without me, I'll... find a way to catch up. Get Optimus back to where it belongs, to our family. You got that, little brother?" I asked, shocking him that I called little brother. To be honest, Jack, Miko and Raf reminded me of my siblings and were like my siblings. We had developed a sibling bond over the time we've known each other. They were family to me, just as the Autobots were. We were all family.

Jack reluctantly dashed for the exit. I watched him go before falling back and just laid there, waiting for the end. Too much Energon was leaking out, I doubt I'd have been able to go on.

'Well, it's been one hell of a ride.'

All the memories of the past year flooded my CPU. Me meeting Solus Prime, her becoming my mother, meeting Megatronus, my father. Me entering this universe, meeting the Autobots, becoming what I am now, fighting side by side with the Autobots... falling in love with Arcee. Kinda like in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix when Harry's being tortured mentally by Voldemort and we see scenes of him and his friends and family from the other 4 movies before that.

"George, are you there?! George, do you copy? George!" Ratchet said in desperation, but it was useless.

'Primus... thanks for giving me this second chance for a family. Solus, Megatronus... I love you guys.'

Everything then went dark for me.


I opened my eyes and saw I was in a black void; there was nothing besides myself. It was as if I was the only thing that existed here and everything else was… well… I dunno how to describe it. I then looked at myself and saw that I was human, wearing normal clothes.

"Where am I?" I asked with a frown.

"We finally meet, young one."

I looked around in confusion. "Who's there?" I called into the black void.

"I... I am the creator of my race. The very being you take your steps on, the incarnation of creation. I…"

'That's not who I think it is. Is it?'

Then out of nowhere a star finally emerged from the darkness and began to take shape of a giant figure at least 100X the size of any Transformer, then it dawned on me, and boy was I in for a shock.

"I Am Primus."

The literal God of the Transformers was standing before me. The very being that became Cybertron itself. The very core of Cybertron. Primus took the form of what seemed to be his Cybertron Incarnation in the Unicron trilogy of the franchise and I was floating in front of his head. I then looked down and saw how big he was.

"Okay... I'm not really sure what I should say right now." I said after a moment of silence. "I mean, this is much different than meeting Unicron."

"Yes, I watched you battle my brother and prevent him from awakening. But there is no need to be afraid, young one. I know anyone else in your position would feel as you do." Primus chuckled.

I looked at him. "You're the one that brought me to this universe."

Primus nodded. "I did. Solus saved your life and made you her son, but your body in your original world was beyond restoration. The only thing that could be done was for you to go to another world as you already know."

"But... why am I here?" I asked with a frown. "I should be, as your kind would say, one with the Allspark."

"Your time... is not up yet. Not by a long while." Primus stated, getting my attention. "Ever since you came here, I have watched you prove yourself many times, proven yourself worthy of your heritage to Solus and Megatronus Prime. You were willing to put others before yourself, lead those who would follow you into the darkest abyss. Those are the traits of a Prime."

"I don't think I am worthy of being a Prime." I said.

Primus chuckled. "Even now, you still reject your calling? Optimus was very much the same before he was named a Prime. Are you willing to just throw everything away now? After everything you've done and how far you have come, are you going to give up now?

I thought about it. I promised I'd save Optimus, I said to myself that I'd end the war, I promised that I'd look after the family like Optimus told me. Thinking about all this, I shook my head and clenched my fists.

"I can't leave them." I said before looking at Primus. "I can't leave them now. I promised to protect them, I promised to get Optimus back. My story isn't over just yet... it's just begun."

Primus smiled proudly. "You have your courage and wisdom have transformed the lives around you, willing to lead those to salvation. Put other lives above your own. You fight for Optimus, one of the 2 last descendants of the Primes, the virtues of a leader. Leadership is not found…it is earnt. Will you accept your birthright?"

"I will accept the burden. For all that I am!" I replied as I felt my body feel different. It started to change and glow. It felt warm, comforting and my strength return tenfold than before.

"Arise... BLADEWOLF PRIME!"


I then awoke back in Vector Sigma and looked at my surroundings before sitting up straight and holding the side of my head. There was new changes to me to cement my status as a Prime. I liked it that way. I didn't need to get an upgrade in bodywork to simply show that I was a Prime. Having the title is enough.

I was healed of my wounds from the Scraplets though, and felt normal.

I stood up and rolled my shoulder joints before transforming into my jet mode.

"Let's roll." I said and blasted off out of here.


Normal POV

Arcee was in big trouble. More Insecticons had arrived, having been drawn to the noise and blaster fire, as well as the fact one of the enemy had returned to Cybertron.

Arcee was smacked into a wall by one of the Insecticons she was facing and was dazed from the impact. She tried to stand but her footing was wobbly and she knew she won't be able to hold them back any longer. Arcee leaped to avoid being tackled through a wall by one of the Insecticons.

Arcee saw Jack and turned to him. "Jack, run!" She called, he did as she said but the giant metallic bug saw him. And the Key to Vector Sigma. It walked closer, but Arcee started shooting it with her Blaster but it didn't seem to do anything. The Insecticon then stomped and held it foot on her tank and slowly put pressure on it. It then took aim at Jack and powered up its own weapon.

Suddenly something blasted out the doors of Vector Sigma and into the sky before it flew back down as the Insecticons shifted their attention to it. The object transformed into Bladewolf who unsheathed his swords and started slashing and shooting through the Insecticons like they were nothing.

(AN: Think of how Optimus slaughters the Decepticons to get to Shockwave in the final battle in Transformers: Dark of the Moon)

Bladewolf rolled to avoid a blaster shot from an Insection, sheathed his swords and drove his fist into the Insection's face, shattering it instantly.

"You... die!" Bladewolf growled before ripping the Insecticon's very spark out.

Stepping off the body, Bladewolf turned his attention to Arcee and Jack, casually shooting an Insecticon behind him with a Path Blaster without even looking.


George/Bladewolf Prime's POV

"Sorry I'm late." I said with a bit of a grin before Arcee slammed into me.

"Stop doing the heroic sacrifice thing." She mumbled into my chassis. I chuckled and hugged her close.

"Can't promise that." I said and kissed the top of her helm. "Trust me, I thought I was going to die... and then i saw Primus himself."

"What?" Arcee looked at me in shock.

I nodded. "I am now Bladewolf Prime. I'll explain everything when we get back to Earth, we have a job to finish."

Arcee nodded before she transformed and Jack got on. I transformed into vehicle mode, and we drove off for the Spacebridge portal.


It didn't take us long to arrive at the portal and I transformed as Jack got off Arcee, allowing her to transform as well.

"Wait." I said, stopping them from entering as I narrow my optics at the vortex. "Something's not right."

"We... can't not go in. Can we?" Jack said looking up at us due to him being the only small one.

I was silent for several seconds. "Stay here, both of you. Wait several seconds before coming through." I told them seriously before I transformed into jet mode and flew through the bridge, coming out to see Megatron standing over a downed Optimus, sword raised for the kill, only for me to transform and ram right unto Megatron from behind, roll and then throw him across the room and into the wall.

I looked around and saw all of the Autobots were knocked down by just Megatron himself. I turned my attention back to Megatron as he got up.

"You and I have unfinished business, Megatron." I growled as I unsheathed one of my swords, deploying my facemask and visor.

Megatron smirked before he deployed his own sword and we circled each other. I took note of Jack giving the Matrix to Optimus, and the other Autobots recovering from being beaten by Megatron, and were now watching the fight about to begin between myself and Megatron.

We charged with roars and Megatron did a spinning attack but I blocked with my sword and went for a slash with my sword but he blocked it and pushed back, going for a impale attempt only for me to parry then and get a slash across hic chassis then Spartan kick him back, sending him sliding back.

Megatron chuckled. "You've grown far more skilled since our fight in your mind. But this isn't the land of the mental... this is the land of the physical!"

"I'll beat you just as I defeated you in my head, Megatron." I growled.

Megatron scoffed before we charged at one another and our swords collided. Megatron grunted as he pushed back against me and tried slashing my chassis just as I did his, but I jumped back to avoid it, blocked a strike, parried his sword, blocked again, then went for my own strikes, rinse and repeat. I leaped over Megatron and went for an attack from behind but he whirled around and managed to block my sword.

Megatron rushed at me again with his blade drawn for another attempt and his blade came in contact with mine. But only for a few seconds before I gave a headbutt, forcing him back a step. I then took the opportunity and slashed him several times leaving several slash marks on his body before switching weapons to a Chainsaw on my right hand and began sawing across the side spilling a bit of Energon, but not enough to slow him down.

"You've changed greatly George, I'm impressed." He said as he punched me in the face forcing to fall back due to the force of the hit. "You would've made a fine gladiator in the pits of Kaon."

I managed to stand up pretty easily. "Better than you probably were."

Megatron scoffed. "I was the greatest champion in the arena! None could best me! Soundwave certainly came close though, one of the reasons I chose him as my first follower."

Yeah, there was a lot on the Prime fandom that Soundwave was a gladiator as well, and fought Megatron to a standstill, both being equal in strength and skill. From what I'd seen in the show as far as I could remember, when Soundwave fought, he didn't even need to try, but when he did get serious... it's game over right there for whoever he's fighting.

"Your ego will be your downfall." I remarked as we clashed swords again. "And for the record, it's Bladewolf Prime to you."

Megatron growled then punched me across the face, knocking me to a knee before I was kneed in the gut, then Megatron drove his elbow down onto my back before he gave me an uppercut that sent me flying right to where Arcee and Jack were.

"I think I made him angry." I remarked.

Megatron, who was now focused on me, ran and leaped, sword raised for the kill when it was stopped... by Optimus.

"Megatron..." Optimus began, his battle mask declaring. I took great enjoyment in the expression on Megatron's face. Optimus reared back. "Be gone." And gave Megatron a huge punch that knocked him back, then gave him an uppercut that sent him flying into the rocky wall hard and landing on the floor below.

We all then regrouped near Optimus and stood ready. "Ratchet, how did we arrive here?" He asked the CMO.

"Long story, old friend." Ratchet smiled as he deployed his swords.

"Arcee to base, we're picking up 15 Autobot life signals down there. Is Prime with you?" Fowler asked.

"And Jack." She replied simply.

"We could use a bridge right now." I told the humans as Megatron was coming to, angry as hell.

A bridge opened. "It's ours!" Arcee shouted before she grabbed Jack and dove in, as did most of the Autobots while Optimus and I fired at Megatron who fired back with his cannon. Optimus and I then leaped through the portal before Megatron could get us.

'He's going to be very angry back there.'


We soon came through the portal back to base, the humans running up to meet us. Raf ran up and looked at him hopefully. "Optimus?"

"Hello Rafael." He said with a smile.

"The big guy remembers us!" Miko said with joy present.

"Although there is much I do not remember." Optimus said as he looked at the Decepticon insignia on his shoulder.

"Dude!" Jazz walked up to me. "Did I hear you right? You're called Bladewolf Prime now?!"

"You heard right, Jazz." I said with amusement, shocking everyone. "Got made a Prime, by Primus himself." This naturally shocked everyone. "I ain't lying, the big guy himself spoke to me after I was near death at the teeth of Scraplets."

Several of the Autobots shivered, knowing that couldn't have been pleasant. Believe me, it wasn't.

"And what did Primus say to you?" Ratchet asked curiously.

"He was the sole reason I'm here in the first place. My body in my original world was beyond restoration, so Primus decided to send me here and has watched me since the very beginning of my time here. And, it appears, he decided I had proven myself worthy of being a Prime, and thus he named me Bladewolf Prime." I explained.

"As I told you once." Optimus said as he walked up to me and placed a hand on my shoulder. "You are worthy of becoming a Prime."

"Team Prime is whole again and we got TWO Primes!" Flareup cheered excitedly, getting agreement from everyone.

This family was whole once again...


And thus concludes the Orion Pax arc, and also George has become Bladewolf Prime. I decided against giving him a makeover, since he doesn't really need it to show he's a Prime now. He'll carry the title with pride though.
