            I stand up and say "Follow me down." I transform and fly and he follows. We get to the bottom and I was able to land properly. He lands heavy as he always does. I limp to the wreckage with him and he asks "What are we doing back here?" I say "Megatron, you said you're smarter than anyone here. Correct?" He nods "I am."
I then counter "Then how is it that I know what happened and you don't!!!??" He widens his optics.

(Be ready, this is a long one)

           I continue ranting "Did It never occur to you that... i don't know.... Smokescreen never follows protocol?  Since they all bridged out, chances are someone stayed behind to destroy the groundbridge controls. And as your findings and me tying them together would have it, In the chaos, Smokescreen grabbed the phase shifter at the omega lock. Because of the smoke and fire, you couldn't see him do it, just like how all of you didn't know if I made it through or not. The racer then bridged away but knew that Optimus would do anything to protect his team meaning he stayed behind, so he ran back through his bridge because they time out after awhile and then dragged Prime's body from the wreckage and phased into the floor to find a safe cave to let him rest. How is it that I nearly died at the omega lock, stayed there long enough to let that pass and I can still find every detail in one conversation without having to use an autobot, Psychic patch or a matrix to know that?"

                 Megatron stood there silent. He was furious. I vent "Look... I'm sorry...." "Then why don't you be leader?" "BECAUSE STARSCREAM WOULD KILL ME FOR IT AND I CANT LEAD AN ARMY WITH VIOLENCE!!! YOU WANT IT TO BE BUT THATS NOT HOW I LEAD!!!" My liege comments "Then how is the warship while you lead?" I state "You heard what that mech said so long ago!!! The warship's containment was at a good level!! Everyone was working better!!! Violence puts stress on others!! I am the one con that hates it and you drove me towards it!" He looked down shamefully, remembering.

           I went on "So no!! Don't ask me to lead because I'm smarter!! I can't lead because I'm weak and emotionally unstable!! I tried to KILL MYSELF!!! What good is an army with a suicidal leader that also hides!!!??" I break down to the floor and Megatron came down to me. I cry silently "I lost so many.... In a short amount of time.... I can't stand it.... All I want is to see them again..... and..... You won't allow it...." It was silent for a bit before he states "Because I need you here. You found the base, you know that Prime is out there somewhere and narrowed down where he might be! We would have lost the war if it wasn't for you." I nod and wipe my eyes. He says "So lead beside me. Not as a commander. With my strength and your smarts, we might win." I nod and a light appears above us. A spotlight. I cover myself, trying to shield my optics and the light stops, a bridge appearing next.
