“-More than sixty volcanoes are erupting worldwide, and downtown Honolulu is under six inches of snow! Scientists continue to devise there is connections between unprecedented natural disasters with the planetary alignment which-”
“So,” June said, raising her voice slightly over the sound of the news on the TV, “Who wants to play a game?”
Pan raised an eyebrow at that, “Who would want to play a game at this time?” she mumbled in her head
Pan felt Amalgamous’ servo rise up in the back of her head, “I would!”
Pan giggled as quite a few of the other Primes sighed at him.
Pan’s head jerked up when she spotted Fowler moving, “That is it!” The Agent scowled, throwing his hands up in frustration.
“Where are you going?” June asked the man.
“I can't just sit on my hands when the world spins out of control,” Fowler huffed.
Ratchet turned his helm towards the humans, “And what exactly is that that you intend to do?” he asked the Agent sharply.
“Anything!” Fowler practically shouted, with Pan wincing at the sudden loud noise, “Hook up with my boys at the Pentagon, figure out a way to bury that monster for good!”
“In the event Optimus can't?” Ratchet retorted, a scowl on his face plates.
“Don't you mean "Optimus and Megatron"?” Fowler sneered(Pan rolled her eyes, “Adults.”).
“No one here is thrilled about this arrangement, agent Fowler, myself included. But with Optimus and Megatron together again-”
“Wow, wait, again?” Jack cut in, his eyes wide as was everyone else's(except for Pan who rolled her eyes again).
“Megatron was an Autobot?” Raf asked the medic at the same time Miko asked, “Optimus was a 'Con?”
“No, on either count,” Ratchet shook his helm, “But, there was a time, back on Cybertron, in the twilight hours of the Golden age, when Optimus and Megatron were not sworn enemies. Do you recall when I mentioned that Optimus wasn't always a Prime? And he wasn't always Optimus, either. He was once a clerk, in the Iacon Hall of Records, named Orion Pax. But as he learned more about Cybertron's past, he grew increasingly concerned about the present corruption in high places, an inequality among the masses. Orion became inspired by the words and ideas of a gladiator one who had named himself after one of the thirteen original Primes Megatronus. Megatronus vowed to challenge Cyberton's leadership and demand that all Cybertronians be treated as equals. This gladiator turned revolutionary rapidly to gather loyal following. Soundwave chief among them. Orion began corresponding with Megatronus who came to be something of the mentor to him. As Megatronus left the gladiatorial arena for the political, he saw fit to shorten his name. Before long, Megatron appeared before the High Council to propose his vision for a just society. And it was here that he began to reveal his true colours proclaiming the need to overthrow the old Guard with force and arrogantly demanding to be named the next Prime. But Orion did not believe in violence as a means of achieving justice. The sparks and minds of the Council were moved by Orion's words. Here, for the first time since Cybertron's Golden age, stood someone worthy of being a Prime. But that honour could only truly be achieved by earning the legendary Matrix of leadership. His ambitions thwarted, Megatron spitefully severed all ties with Orion and the Council, and came to wage war on all who opposed him through his growing army of followers which he named "Decepticons". He vowed to claim the Matrix for himself, wherever it might lie. In time, warfare consumed Cybertron, poisoning the planet to its core. Orion journeyed there, hoping to reverse the ill effects and found himself before the very Spark of our life-giver -- Primus himself. The ailing Primus sensed the innate nobility within Orion and bestowed the Matrix upon him. It was thus that the surprised and humbled Orion Pax came to be Optimus, the last of the Primes.”
