Heart of a Prime

Chapter 69

Hey fans! So I have the privilege of watching Rise of the Beasts today as a cinema near where I live had it on today instead of the 22nd of June as the national release date for Australia. I am not going to spoil anything. But here is my brief review of the movie.

Mirage was the best thing in the movie.

Optimus is a savage with his words, and I appreciated his apprehension to humans.

Primal was pretty awesome to watch.

Scourge was a decent villain.

How does it compare to the Bayverse? Well, the short response to that is, The Last Knight is gold compared to the cluster I just watched. But I will be honest, I did like The Last Knight. It isn't my all time favorite, which we can agree on, so I could be biased on that.

This is my opinion, and if you enjoy the film, that is fine. But that is how I feel about the movie.

All I can say is, despite how I feel about the movie, I am still tempted to write a story about it. So keep an eye out for that in the future.

Saphira was sitting on a hospital bed after being brought to the medical facility of NEST. She was wearing a white robe now and her left arm out as the glass was carefully removed and her wounds being attended to. And the scrape on her back was worse than she had thought too. There was a shallow wound there now, and now that the adrenaline had passed, the pain really kicked in. She was not happy about it at all. The glass shards stung, that was true, but it was not as bad as the wound in her back. She was just thankful she did not need any stitches in all of her wounds. She did need stitches to the wound on her shoulder once the shard was removed. Ointment was applied, and she was given antibiotics too since the wound on her back was bad enough to already get infected despite being shallow.

Ratchet had been the one to carefully remove each shard of glass from her arm. She now had to have a nice bandage around her arm since there were too many wounds to bandage individually, so it made more sense. But she at least did not have to need a cast. That was a bonus in her mind as a broken bone would really make things a lot more complicated. At least now NEST was going to listen to her, and she hoped that they would listen. She really disliked that they have ignored her until the point she was attacked directly by the decepticons.

Saphira narrowed her eyes as she stared at the floor. "This is such bullshit..." Ratchet looked at her in surprise just as he removed the last shard. "It took me being attacked for NEST to listen...it's such bullshit..."

"Yeah, it is." Ratchet could not help but agree as he looked back at her arm and grabbed a bandage to begin wrapping her arm. "But as it seems you were able to get some information, that does seem like an obvious reason why Laserbeak would attack you. There's a chance he has been watching you."

"The decepticons don't need to spy on me while energon sensors keep watch around the globe," Saphira said bluntly, glancing at her arm as Ratchet wrapped her arm up gently. "They had their human operatives. I cannot help but wonder just how many more there are in this world."

"It would seem that way. You'll have to tell this to Mearing when she arrives. I know she will take your word seriously, and it is a good thing. But...if it weren't for the decepticons, I am not sure if she would have listened too." Ratchet intakes heavily as he pondered on it. "What exactly did you learn?"

"That Barricade might not far from the truth," Saphira said in a simple, confident tone. "He has not changed his story, and with what I have learned, he is not far from the truth. I just wish and hope that Optimus will listen to me on that. I know it won't be easy."
