I have one more set of scenes after this one.

Enjoy.


It had all led up to this.

The final battle between the heroes and Decepticons for the fate of Japan.

Either its restoration or complete modification.

Megatron and Lemillion battled brutally, showing no mercy to each other.

There was no room for mercy.

But another fight was far more…prolonged.

"Soundwave…" Gravitrona whispers as she approaches. "...Kyoka…we don't have to do this."

Soundwave merely stood still, ever the silent one, though she could feel her glare behind the visor.

A burst of static and an old recording.

"My fellow Decepticons! I, Gravitrona, will stand by you and our leader to the end. We shall enforce justice for our people and ensure that none suffer as we have!"

Gravitrona didn't wince. Nor did she flinch.

She merely bowed her head.

"As long as we stick together, we can bring about a new future!"

She closed her eyes.

"Will you stand with us, Kyoka?"

She opens them.

"I know that I betrayed you, Kyoka…but I could not stand by and watch us become that which we swore to destroy."

A sword appears from her arm.

"Even if it means defeating you, defeating Megatron…I will reform the Decepticons into something better."

Soundwave's form tenses, the frame rattling in fury.

There are no more words to be shared as the edges of Soundwave's arms sharpen.

"Stand back, children." Gravitrona warns before leaping forward.

Soundwave returns her blow and their blades crash against each other with furious sparks.


It is tragic really.

Wars always are.

They had fought together side by side since the Pits of Kaon.

They had treated each other's wounds, been privy to secrets and fears that only one other would know.

And unfortunately, it had all culminated to this very moment.

It was sudden…but they could feel it.

"Lemillion to all forces! Megatron is no more!"

It remained silent between them even as Ochako closed her eyes in grief and Kyoka fell to her knees.

With a screech of fury Soundwave leaped forward to attack only for Gravitrona to dodge and bring up her blaster up to Soundwave's visor.

PTEW

CRASH

She slammed against the wall before crashing down to her knees and hands.

Glass fell against the deck and Gravitrona looked at her cool blaster.

Turning to the side, she saw Mahoro with her own smoking blaster.

Facing Soundwave again she gasped as she saw her shakily lift her head revealing that her visor had been nearly shattered, a large chunk having fallen out while the rest of it remained cracked.

Soundwave opened her eyes, the harsh red glow piercing across the room.

Gravitrona gasped.

"Kyoka…"

Kyoka 'breathed' heavily as she struggled to get up before fully facing her.

"We# were going t#o change the# wor#ld. Our people# would not suf#fer."

Ochako could only stare sadly as her friend stumbled before a portal opened behind her and Kyoka retreated.

"I'm sorry."


They were rebuilding.

Restoring Japan piece by piece for a new era.

With the death of Megatron, Gravitrona had taken leadership of the Decepticons and brought them to a new age, those that would listen to her underwent programs to properly reintegrate to society as a new treaty was established between the reformed Japanese government and the New Decepticons.

Those that would not…were hunted down and imprisoned.

It was an imperfect system, but concessions had to be made.

Gravitrona looked out toward the skyline from the half broken building.

Another, smaller figure approached and held her hand.

"Mom…are you alright?"

She turned to look down at her daughter, the small girl looking up at her with glowing red eyes.

"I'm fine, Little Spark." she replied with a sad smile. "Just thinking about the future."

She smiled sadly back.

"I know you'll do good, mom…I think…that if things were different, dad would have said the same."

Gravitrona fully turned to face her daughter and caressed her face.

"Starlight…"

Starlight held onto her mother's hand.

"I'm not blind, mom. I was there for the war." she said. "I never participated, but I wasn't blind to what was going on around me."

Gravitrona sighed and nodded.

"Then let us hope that the future will involve no more war."

Their attention was caught by Lemillion at the center of the plaza below them, carrying a special canister in his hand that led to a machine.

The Terraformer would be powered by One For All…a final duty for the old quirk, thereby restoring Japan.

"Let this mark the beginning of a New Age!"


Deep in the Japan Trench

A lone figure rested, the great Warlord Megatron, struck down by a single blade.

His eyes darkened, he laid there in ironic peace.

"Megatron…"

There was no response.

"Megatron!"

Inside a spectral world, Megatron slept.

"Megatron!"

He opened his eyes.

"All For One?" He asked in confusion as the enormous figure appeared in front of him.

"I do not understand," Megatron said. "Why am I not dead? Do I yet live?"

"You do not. Yet you cannot rest because my lifeblood once flowed through your veins." All For One answered.

"All For One's quirk factor…"

"It binds you to me."

"Lemillion used One For All to imprison you beneath Japan's crust." Megatron replied. "So how is it that you speak before me now?"

"The foolish Ninth rendered only my material form dormant, but my energy form was roused from slumber when I sensed the awakening of my brother across Japan."

"One For All…so it would seem that Lemillion succeeded in restoring Japan after my demise," Megatron uttered with a grimace.

Although pleased that his home had been restored, he was still indignant from his demise and denial of restoring Japan by his own hands.

"I now wish to finish what I began centuries ago, and for that, I require a vessel."

"So…I will live again?" Megatron asked, intrigued.

"Only to serve me!" All For One retorted. "Your husk will simply be an instrument of my will."

All For One's eyes flashed as his power surged.

Megatron's eyes snapped open, glowing an insidious purple, his body practically lifted itself like a mannequin as he began to scream in agony.

Falling to his knees, he was helpless to watch and feel as his body was shifted.

He screamed beneath the crushing weight of the ocean before transforming and bursting out of the water at even higher speeds than before.

"You improved my engines…impressive."

"One of many upgrades that I made to your limited corporeal form." All For One replied to him as he loomed over Megatron. "And wholly necessary to reach One For All before interlopers interfere with my mission."

"So…" Megatron began as he turned to face him. "We are to rule together, as one."

SHI-KOOOM

"GAAAAHHRAARGGGHHH!"

Megatron screamed as All For One attacked with blasts from his eyes, bringing him to his knees.

"You will rule nothing." All For One scorned. "I travel to One For All for one reason only. To destroy Yoichi's legacy permanently."

Megatron gasped before raising his head.

"But to destroy One For All, is to destroy Japan!"

"Thus will begin a new age…The Age of Chaos!"


Kaon, Japan

"Lady Bubble Girl, Empress of Destruction," Bubble Girl said with a forced, deep voice as she sat on Megatron's old throne before practically kicking her legs like a child.

Real Steel gawked before telling her off.

"How can you sit there? That's some bad mojo."

Meanwhile, Mindjack (with his voice restored) and Nejire-chan observed as some of Shockwave's bases were revealed on a digital map.

Still hunting the Decepticon scientist, they were also working on a breakthrough to help restore her personality matrix.

After capturing her of course.

"Let's get this info downloaded and get out of here," Mindjack said with a grin.

"Hey!" Real Steel called out. "Something's coming our way!"

They looked out and narrowed their eyes, the dark night unhelpful to them.

"Ryukyu?"

"Moving too fast."

"Starscream?" Real Steel offered.

Mindjack didn't reply but his eyes widened in horror as he recognized the figure.

Megatron transformed mid air with a flip before landing on the floor in front of them.

"Minions of the Ninth. Prepare to be obliterated!"

"Megatron?" Hitoshi asked in horror.

"You skewered buckethead with a giant saber and managed to miss his spark!?" Bubble Girl commented.

"How are you still alive?" Nejire-Chan scowled as she charged her blasts.

"And where'd you score the upgrade?" Real Steel asked as his quirk activated.

'Megatron' merely scowled.

"Megatron cannot answer you at this moment, though I can inform you with utmost authority that he owes his new lease on life to me! All For One!"

The heroes backed away, preparing for battle.

"And I will not be so easy to deliver into oblivion!"

All For One charged his power through Megatron's body, creating constructs of pure energy before opening fire on his enemies.

They scattered, returning fire, with Shinso hooking onto Megatron's body with his capture scarf before opening fire on him point blank after jumping off.


"Bothersome pest." All For One scowled.

"That pest is the very one who robbed me of my spark!" Megatron snarled. "And now I possess the power to return the favor!"

Megatron flinched as All For One snapped at him.

"You possess nothing!" All For One snarled. "It is I who possess all that you were and ever will be!"

Megatron's eyes slightly widened as the gravity of the situation was becoming known to him.


"Gravitrona! All For One's come back to life using Megatron's body! We need backup!"

#...Understood! Retreat for now! We'll regroup and tackle him together!#

"Right! Let's move!"

The heroes scattered again as they fired on All For One before jumping off the tower and into the night, escaping much to All For One's fury as he transformed and went after them.

Still though, they remained ahead of him until they were finally able to escape via ground bridge.

All For One roared in fury.

"I…am WEAK!"


"But our merciless attack drove the heroes into submission!" Megatron crowed. "They fled for their very lives!"

"A victory over unworthy opponents. Especially one that did not result in their demise is far from an achievement." All For One retorted with scorn. "Clearly our improved state is not enough to accomplish the deed for which I have come. For that, I shall require a much greater instrument of destruction."


Elsewhere

"How is this possible? We sealed All For One away! Lemillion gave up his memories and was forced to give up his human body to put that monster to sleep!" Nejire screamed in frustration before sitting down, hands over her head.

"Just when we reach peace…something else has to come and screw it up!"

"Then we keep fighting!" Gravitrona interrupted as she walked into the room, a stern glare on her face.

She couldn't stand the acts that Megatron had committed during the war, but that didn't mean that she wanted to see his body desecrated by All For One.

"We've made it this far! And we're so close to restoring Japan!" she declared. "Now it's one final push so that we can reach the end and pave the future for the next generation!"

"It's obvious that whatever woke him up has to be related to One For All and the Terraformer, he's either taking it or destroying it, either of which we cannot allow!"

She then made the call, sending her message to

"My fellow Decepticons! All For One! The Deceiver! Has desecrated the corpse of our once beloved leader and uses it as a puppet to destroy the method of restoring our home! I call upon you to fight once more to ensure that we have a future!"


All For One snarled as he was beset by an increasing horde of Decepticons and heroes.

"TRAITORS! YOU DARE DEFY YOUR LORD AND MASTER!" He bellowed as he tossed away a Decepticon from him.

"You're not Megatron!" Another roared out as he opened fire. "Megatron would do a lot of things! But not destroying the only way of fixing Japan!"

All For One roared in fury, the ruse unable to take place as he was barraged by blasterfire.

"THEN JOIN THEM IN EXTINCTION!"

He blasted the group away from him and fought earnestly, slaughtering his foes.

"FATHER, STOP!"


Megatron gasped within the inner world.

"Eri…"

'NO! STAY AWAY!'


"FATHER, PLEASE!" She cried out as she held onto his arm. "STOP THIS! I know you're in there!"

"STARLIGHT!" Gravitrona cried out. "GET AWAY FROM HIM!"

She begged for her father to regain control but All For One merely laughed.

"Foolish child! Your father is under MY control!"

All For One lashed out with a fist and Starlight flinched.

She only felt the wind pass in front of her face.

She opened her eyes and saw the fist trembling in front of her.

"WHAT!?"

Megatron's right eye flickered red as he roared in fury before grabbing her gently and tossing her away from him.

Using his sword, he stabbed himself in the abdomen.

"DECEPTICONS!" Megatron roared. "OPEN FIRE!"

They did not hesitate.

All For One screamed.


"You dare to betray me and have both of us destroyed!?" All For One questioned.

"Perhaps not destroyed," Megatron replied as he turned to face the giant figure. "Just damaged enough that our shared form will no longer be of use to you, forcing you to abandon what remains!"

Megatron stood defiantly before All For One having gained enough strength to at least ensure Starlight's safety.

"For regaining my free will, even over a mangled and deficient frame, is preferable to enduring a waking life as your slave!"

All For One sneered.

"For your insolence, I will only make you endure greater suffering!"

And he attacked Megatron again.

"AAAAAGGGGGHHHH!"


"Father…" Starlight whispered with a sob as Gravitrona held her tightly.

"HHRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHH!"

All For One's energy exploded outward knocking away Decepticons and heroes alike away from him.

Stumbling a bit from the exertion and damage, he nonetheless pressed forward towards the Terraformer.

"Yoichi…your damn rebellion has lasted long enough. Time and time again you rejected my counsel, my supplement, my will." All For One snarled.

"I see now that you will never obey me…so you will be destroyed."

WABUUUURRRRRRRRR

"AAAARRGGHHH!"

All For One roared in fury.

"MORE PESTS!"

"Soundwave…" Gravitrona breathed in relief before rushing forward and attacking All For One from behind.

With her, Nejire, Suneater, and Real Steel also joined in the fight, providing more time for Lemillion to arrive.

Together, surprisingly enough, they were able to drive him back just a bit more.

All For One snarled in fury before perking up.

"What?" He questioned as he felt something. "A familiar resonance…pure energy, yet a piece of a whole…"

He turned and grinned.

"The Ninth."

Lemillion glared at the figure as he approached.

"All For One."

"One For All."

Lemillion leaped forward and tackled his foe, knocking him back before immediately going on the offensive, managing to deliver two quick punches and a kick that knocked him away.

"Thank you, Ninth," All For One said. "For delivering the last piece of One For All so that I may erase it from existence!"

"Not while I stand before you, All For One."

The two warriors charged and slammed their fists into each other.

Lemillion took a blow to the head but All For One took a brutal uppercut that left him open enough for Lemillion to rain down more blows.

"Megatron! You and I once united to save Japan from All For One!" Lemillion said as he punched him. "We must do so again!"

All For One panted.

"Megatron may hear you!"

BAM "AGH!"

He snarled.

"But he cannot HELP YOU!"


"AAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!" Megatron screamed as purple energy encompassed him.

"For he is enduring eternal suffering!"


Lemillion delivered a flying fist to the top of All For One's head but he was quick to counter and knock him back.

"Your efforts to protect One For All and the country that defied my rule are FUTILE!" He spat as he approached his foe. "This country shall know ruin for daring to defy me."

He raised his hand, an energy hammer appearing in his hands to slam down on Lemillion before he was caught by an energy field.

"ARGH!"

"Downside to being metal near a polarity gauntlet," Knockout began.

"You're subject to the laws of magnetism," Bubble Girl said.

"Go Lemillion! Protect One For All!"

Lemillion nodded as he flew towards the Terraformer.

With another roar, he pushed and managed to throw Shinso with the force of the gauntlet before blasting Bubble Girl, Knockout dodging out of the way as he transformed and flew at Lemillion who was flying away from the Terraformer with One For All's capsule in hand.

A quick shot knocked him out of the sky and he crashed with a groan and All For One transformed before wrenching it out of his hands.

"I shall devour One For All whole!" He declared as he opened it.

Only for it to be empty.

"WHAT!? A trick!"

All For One screamed in fury and despair as he essence was sucked out of Megatron and forced into the capsule.

With a groan, Megatron collapsed to his knees before falling completely to the ground.

All For One screamed behind the glass, helpless in his newest prison.

"As a being now comprised of pure energy, All For One was vulnerable to the reliquary for One For All," Lemillion explained.

"And I can think of no fitter end than for him to help restore that which he helped destroy," he remarked as he looked back at the currently inactive Terraformer.

"And One For All?" Bubble Girl asked.

"Back to where it originally belonged," Lemillion said with a small smile.

Before they could celebrate however…

"By the Pits!" Starscream yelled as he approached a kneeling Megatron.

"Master! You are alive!"

Megatron merely held his head for a bit before replying.

"Hurh…indeed…" he muttered as he stood up.

"Your new battle armor will take things to the next level, my liege!" Starscream complimented as Megatron took in his new…changes. "Together we will restore the Decepticons and once again grind Japan under your mighty heel!"

During Starscream's speech, Megatron's expression changed before he snapped.

"NO!"

Everyone blinked in unison at the…unexpected answer, even as Megatron walked away from Starscream.

"What? Why?"

Megatron stared at a teary Starlight, a wary Gravitrona, a confused Soundwave…and the countless heroes and Decepticons nearby that had witnessed the battle.

His eyes finally met Lemillion's.

"Because I now know the true meaning of oppression…and have thus lost my taste for inflicting it."

"Ehaha…you've clearly been traumatized, master." Starscream interjected. "A good power down and a stroll around the smelting pit will put you back in touch with your inner warlord."

Megatron clenched his fist before interrupting.

"ENOUGH!" He barked as he stalked forward, looming over Starscream.

"The Decepticons are no more," he rumbled. "And that is final!"

With that, Megatron turned away and took two steps before transforming and blasting off into the distant sky.


Years later

"Father, I have recently entered my newest frame…I guess you could call me a teenager now if I were still human," Starlight said into her small broadcast.

It was a weekly thing that she did, although she didn't know where her father was, and she knew all about the crimes that he'd committed…

She still hoped that he was safe.

Wherever he was.

"So...this is what's happened this past week, Mom's been leading the Decepticons and so far we've underwent a new project-"


Izuku…Megatron…truth be told he didn't know what to call himself, but either way, he sat on the chair at the old Decepticon lunar base, one of Shockwave's unfinished projects.

It was his self-imposed location of exile, forced to watch the world he tried to take move on without him.

But still, he couldn't let go…

#-and recently my friends and I have been working on some of the land that was fixed by the Terraformer, Japan's almost completely reunited by this point-#

He smiled sadly before looking out towards Earth.

"Is this what you meant by ensuring the future?" He asked one, though he could not hear.

"I suppose, in the end you were right…my greatest enemy…and oldest friend…"


Hope you all liked it.
