Optimus Prime and the rest of team prime were known as the heroes of the Earth. Protecting the humans from the evil deceptions. One day, Team Prime runs into an ominous, but familiar figure....Nemesis Prime.
[I do not own Transformers Prime, they be...
The ground bridge led Team Prime into a decepticon energon mine. They hid behind the rocks and watched the vehicons mining for energon.
"It seems like they haven't transported it yet." Arcee whispered. Bumblebee nodded in response.
Optimus ordered, reaching for his com. "We will wait until we find the fight moment to attack, do we understand?" He then winced as his head rung in pain again.
"Understood." Smokescreen replied as the others nodded.
But before the Autobots could do anything, they heard screams in the distance. They turned to see gunshots blasting in the back of the mine, causing debris to crush the other few vehicons in the way.
"What the-" Bulkhead stuttered.
"Is it bucket head?" Smokescreen pondered.
Optimus disagreed, "Megatron may seem invincible, but he would never waste time to get energon for himself." He then stood up, bringing out his blasters. "Roll out."
The Autobots then charged towards the ruckus. Shooting and getting rid of the vehicons in the way. Optimus' headache only got worse as he got closer to the center of attention; he then turned to see Bumblebee and Smokescreen charge towards the dark figure in the cloud of dust. But was abruptly stopped as they were both grabbed by the neck.
"Smokescreen!" Bulkhead yelled.
Arcee quickly turned as she kicked another vehicon. "Bumblebee-!"
Optimus tried to help the two, but was stopped by what he saw. It was him....but different?! The figure had a different paint job then Optimus did. His helmet was a darker blue, as his armor was dark purple. His optics were bright red instead of blue.

The others were confused as well; the figure smirked as he gripped onto the two young Autobots' throats even tighter.
"Gah-!" Smokescreen grunted.
Bumblebee's hands grew weak, failing to grasp onto the larger mech's arm. "Y-you're not Optimus...." He slowly beeped.
The larger mech laughed. "Hah! I was wondering why I saw a reflection of myself back there." He looked at Optimus. "My name is Nemesis Prime, leader of the autobots.... I am guessing you all are on the decepticons' side?"
"What in Primus are you saying?" Bulkhead exclaimed. "We're the Autobots! Aren't you working for Megatron???"
Bulkhead's statement only made the situation worse. Nemesis glared at him, his faceplate grew dark. "How dare you lump me in with that bastard!" He threw Smokescreen over at Bulkhead. Smokescreen gasped for air as Bulkhead helped him up.
"You seem very familiar...you look just like Hornet, besides the disgusting voice of yours." He held Bumblebee closer to him, showing off the fangs he had. Bumblebee winced as Nemesis' claws dug into his throat; causing energon to flow out.
This angered Optimus, his voice became deep with rage. "Let Bumblebee go this instant."
"Oh angry now?" Nemesis taunted Optimus, "So your name's Bumblebee, what a pathetic name."
He chuckled as he hurled Bumblebee across the mine. Optimus leaped to catch Bumblebee in his arms; he put his hand on Bumblebee's throat to ease the bleeding. He glared at Nemesis, who smirked back.
"Arcee! Call Ratchet to open the ground bridge!" He ordered, ignoring the pain in the back of his head. "We will retreat for now."
Arcee hesitated, but nodded and reached for her com. Calling Ratchet to open the ground bridge; the entrance of the bridge soon opened. Arcee and Bulkhead helped Smokescreen through the ground bridge as Optimus carried Bumblebee.
"I hope we meet again~" Nemesis waved instead of chasing the team towards the ground bridge. He didn't seem to have the intention to stop them.
Optimus didn't respond, he only glared at Nemesis once more before disappearing out of sight.
