Transformers: Dark Cybertron

Human Time

Carly walked into school as Cliffjumper drove off and parked somewhere else. She smiled and talked with some of her friends before bumping into Spike. They both smiled at each other and hugged. "Hey Spike." She whispered as Spike sighed happily and replied, "Hey hun." They walked around the school as they saw their friends and everyone talking about the transformers. They chuckled and walked past Kicker who waved and smiled, "Hey dude and dudet!" They waved as Carly rose a brow, "New jacket?" He nodded, "Yup! Old one got singed when Megaclutz and his band of metal idiots attacked!" He giggled as the two walked on, "He's somethin' else." They giggled as they got to Cybertronian Studies. The teacher was Kicker's dad as Kicker walked in and hugged him, "Hey pops!" His dad giggled and hugged back, "Hey ol' sport!" Kicker sat down and put his phone away as his dad Mr. Jones wrote on the whiteboard as the bell rang, "Okay everyone, click the link on your laptops and go to slide 84 and we will begin with Chapter 1: Cybertron."

After school, Carly smiled at Spike as she walked outside and saw Cliffjumper wasn't in her spot. She sighed as Spike widened his eyes, "Uh oh... Cliff on a mission?" Carly nodded and turned to him, "Yeah... Here, actually." She started calling any of the Autobots as Spike held his arm out to her and Carly leaned against him.

Optimus stood with Magnus and Elita as they scanned the galaxy for all of the chaos going on. Elita pointed and sighed, "I worry about Caminus. Is it even still functional?" Magnus shrugged, "It could be but I haven't checked in a good few Hundred Years. But I do not know..." Prime rubbed his chin as he nodded, "We will send a small team immediately. Secure Elita's home, have Wheeljack-" Prime's communicator went off as he pressed his arrows on his wrist and then his earpiece, "Hello? Ah Carly. Yes I did, my bad. Indeed, I'm on my way my friend." Magnus smirked and put his hands on his hips. "Optimus?" Elita looked concerned before Optimus sighed and let his shoulders drop. "Yes. I have to pick up the humans." Elita rose a brow as Magnus chuckled, "Good luck boss." Prime nodded and transformed as he drove off. Carly and Spike waited with some other kids before Optimus drove up and opened the doors. Everyone was shocked by the appearance of an Autobot but before anything, the two kids jumped in and the Prime drove off. Carly and Spike laughed softly as Prime spoke, "Where to my friends?" Carly smiled as Spike nodded, "The Ark, boss bot." Prime honked his horn and drove as he made it into the woods and finally into the Ark. Spike and Carly smiled in awe at the new tech and better armor. As they reached the main computer, Skyfire walked by with Silverbolt and Powerglide. Slag walked to Moonracer as he talked with her about the Earth. Carly and Spike got out as Optimus transformed and nodded at Ultra Magnus and Elita-1. She rose a brow at the two, "These are the humans that helped bring you all online?" Prime nodded, "This is Spike Witwicky and Carly Daniels, our trusted human allies." Elita knelt down to them, "Thank you for activating all of my friends and my lover." Spike rose a brow and gulped as he pointed at Optimus, "Him? and you?" Carly gasped, "Oh my God..." Elita stood up and chuckled as Optimus walked to her and held her hand, "She is one of the greatest beings I ever met." The humans smiled and nodded.

Carly wandered the base and saw a barren room. She walked in and saw many weapons and a photo of the dinobots. She rose a brow as Sludge walked in, "What are you doing here human?" She gasped and backed up from him before he knelt down and held the photo, "I remember this one. Grimlock and the rest of us took down Darkmount Tower. It was our first real mission together. We took down about 600 Decepticons that day." Carly walked to him as he picked her up and set her on his shoulder. "Do you know where he is now? Autobot City? Moon Base 2?" Sludge shook his head as he sighed, "I haven't heard a thing since he went to Garrus 9... 4 million years ago..." Carly nodded, "I'm sorry. Maybe he'll be back someday." Sludge looked up at one of his swords as he caressed it, "I hope so..."
