Three years ago...

The once tranquil planet of Cybertron was now a shadow of its former self. The deafening sounds of destruction and violence had taken over, drowning out all other sounds.

The battle between the Decepticons and Autobots had been raging on for what seemed like an eternity, leaving behind a trail of devastation and chaos. The Autobots' valiant efforts were no match for the Decepticons, who were slowly but surely gaining the upper hand. The future of Cybertron seemed bleak, and its fate hung in the balance.

The scene unfolded to reveal a desolate and dimly lit hallway, stretching out as far as the eye could see. The air was heavy with the stillness of abandonment, and every step echoed through the emptiness.

Despite the apparent abandonment, there were signs of recent activity, as if some mechanical being had taken up residence here. The walls were scarred with claw marks and blaster burns, and the floor was littered with debris.

The stillness of the surroundings was shattered by the sound of hurried footsteps, growing louder and closer with every passing second. A figure emerged from the shadows, striding confidently into the vast open space ahead.

The metallic frame of the cybertronian gleamed in the dim light, reflecting the faint glow of the surroundings. Its movements were agile and graceful, like that of a predator stalking its prey.

In the distance of the hallway, the sound of yelling and following footsteps could be heard, indicating a sense of urgency. The Cybertronian seemed to be in a rush as it quickly went over to the counter and shelves, grabbing things and objects with a swift hand motion before disappearing into the shadows once more.

The sound of pounding footsteps echoed through the empty hallway as the Cybertronian raced towards its destination.

Its spark was pounding in its chest, and its mind was racing with thoughts of the mission at hand. It knew that failure was not an option and that the fate of Cybertron hung in the balance.

Suddenly, a datapad slipped from its grip, clattering to the ground with a resounding thud. As it hit the floor, the device flickered to life, its screen displaying three words in bold letters that seemed to glow in the dim light of the corridor.

The Terrorcon Project.

As the cybertronian sprinted through the dimly lit hallway, a sudden clatter echoed through the air. Without missing a beat, it spun around and swiftly retrieved the object that had fallen to the floor, carefully securing it in its grip to prevent any further mishaps. Once it was certain that it was safe, it resumed its hurried pace and disappeared into the shadows once again.

The events that took place were catastrophic, resulting in numerous casualties and the complete destruction of Cybertron.

The once vibrant planet was now a barren wasteland, devoid of life and hope.
However, despite this, the battle between the Autobots and Decepticons rages on.

Some of those who survived have found refuge on Earth, specifically in a region known as Nevada. Unfortunately, there are those who are still unaccounted for, some presumed dead, others missing, and a few are simply lost in the vastness of space.

Present time....

Amidst the Decepticon's forces, a new member has emerged. The identity of this bot remains unknown, as does its origin. Who could it be, and what are its intentions?

These are questions that remain unanswered for now, shrouded in mystery and intrigue.
