The Transformers: The Light That Saves Us All

The Need for Transformers

Commander Fairborne walked with Ultra Magnus and a few other bots as they entered a UN National meeting. The leaders of the world stood up as everyone nodded to each other, "Good morning Commander Fairborne, Commander Magnus and everyone else. This meeting has officially begun." Marissa sat down as the United States President stood up. "We are here to discuss what happened last year. The sudden evacuation and return of the Autobots." Magnus stood up as he approached the microphone, "Last year, a devastating disaster of biblical proportions took place on our home planet of Cybertron. It was an ancient prophecy speaking of the destruction of our world. The Autobots led by Optimus Prime waged a battle to stop Megatron with the help of a few Decepticons. We succeeded but at the cost of Optimus Prime himself." The Prime Minister of Japan spoke "So if Optimus is lost then we need you Autobots now more than ever!" Ultra Magnus nodded "And we will gladly stay and help you all. We will defend your planet as we have for eons. But I ask you all to help us rebuild our homeworld." England's MI-6 representative spoke, "We will gladly try and help you with your world, Ultra Magnus." America's president nodded his head, "I second that. We let you build Autobot City on earth, we'll gladly help rebuild the damage done to your world." Everyone else agreed as Magnus nodded, "Thank you all. Now the next issue: Megatron has not been heard from in quite a few days. I have Autobots searching for him as we speak. But I have operatives and reason to believe that the Air Commander of the Seeker Armada known as Starscream has taken command of the Decepticons and pulled them back to a hidden world that is not on our maps."
Everyone spoke in whispers before Commander Fairborne spoke, "Can you trust these sources at all?"
Magnus nodded, "Indeed I can. One of these sources actually came from the Decepticon Warship named the Nemesis itself... and in turn from Starscream himself!" Everyone spoke as the Prime Minister of Japan spoke out, "How can you trust the word of a Decepticon!? Especially one that is apart of MEGATRON'S ELITE?"
"Because Starscream is many things. But lying about orders and his command is not one of them." Everyone looked at who spoke as the transformer held his hands in the air, "Former Decepticon Seeker Thundercracker." He said as he stood with Ultra Magnus. "I saw the message itself and it is without a doubt Starscream himself saying it. Not a false message, Soundwave's trickery, nothing. It's just Starscream being honest." Everyone talked again as Thundercracker knelt down to Marissa Fairborne, "I haven't been to a meeting in a long time, how am I doing?"
"Brilliantly is something I'd say, Thundercracker." She whispered back.
He smiled softly, "Thanks."

After the meeting, Thundercracker walked with Ultra Magnus and the others. "Earth is really something else... But... I want more..." Magnus looked at him, "You want what specifically?" Thundercracker chuckled, "I used to be a writer on Cybertron. Heh, maybe I could write something here and give those of us who do not wish to fight a chance in this life." Marissa rose a brow and looked up at Thundercracker, "Really? This is for other transformers and humans like you?" Thundercracker looked at her and nodded "Yes. I owe it to them after all the lives I've ruined..." He walked with them and smiled. When they returned to Autobot city an Autobot threw a molotov at Thundercracker. The Con ducked and caught it as he threw it in the air and blew it up. Several Autobots booed him as he sighed. He ran and flew off to the Ark. When he landed he walked inside and just hung his head. Bumblebee was hanging out with Charlie and Buster before they stopped talking and saw Thundercracker wave at them, "Hi. I'm Thundercracker... I'm uh... I'm a writer..." Bee rose a brow as Buster just blinked. Charlie walked to him slowly, "Uh... what do you write exactly?"
"Well, I write books and novels but I'd love to write screenplays." He smiled and knelt down to her.

Marissa looked at Magnus as the two monitored activity across the planet. "You think we'll be alright?"
"These are dark and confusing times Commander. We don't know what could happen next. Megatron is demoted, Starscream is calling the shots and Optimus Prime is gone... We must be vigilant..." She nodded at Magnus as they sighed together.
