An Alternate story of Transformers Prime with different characters, fleshed out character Arcs and chapters that flesh out the world, Optimus Prime and the Ark are lost, and a rag tag group of Autobots being led by an ancient Warrior king of the old...
-a month has passed, the Autobots and Decepticons were fighting over a Iacon Data cylinder-
Lindel was with Jack who was in his Hulkbuster suit, fighting Veicons as Lindel came to the Cylinder and called Elita back at the base, Megatronus and StormReign clashed blades above her, but StormReign pushed Megatronus back and they continued to fight.
"Elita, me and Jack are with the Data Cylinder." Lindel spoke into her phone.
"What are your coordinates?" Elita asked.
Skywarp threw Tarn to the rocky wall, he smashed his spear into the Decepticon justice division leader's shoulder and started exchanging blows until he saw the groundbridge open up and saw Jack carrying the Data Cylinder with Lindel helping him, he tore his spear out of Tarn's shoulder and knocked him out with a well placed throat punch he sprinted towards Jack and Lindel to help them, but a Veicon that Grimlock had killed fell in front of his path and made Skywarp trip and fell, Jack panicked as he saw Skywarp fall and Lindel placed her hand on the Data Cylinder and the data Cylinder shot a red beam straight into Skywarp's forehead, after a moment Skywarp passed out and Chromia and Windblade came over and helped Skywarp up, the Autobots escaped but Megatronus was able to get his hands on the Data Cylinder.
-in the Autobot base-
Skywarp laid on the medical berth as Elita examined him, Arcee sat next to Skywarp as well. "is he okay?" Arcee asked Elita in worry.
"He just tripped and whatever the Cylinder did hasn't messed with his head at all." Elita said as she scanned Skywarp.
"But he's not hurt right?" Hot Rod asked.
"Yes Hot Rod, he's not hurt." Elita said in a sarcastic manner.
Skywarp opened his eyes and looked up to see Arcee and Elita there over him. "Huh, I died and went to haven huh?" he joked, Arcee and Elita rolled their eyes at his joke. "No, not yet at least." Arcee said with a smile.
-In the nemesis-
"What's wrong with it?" Megatronus asked Knockout, Tarn was there as well.
"Okay lord Megatronus, here's how it is, the Data Cylinder is like a battery, batteries hold power or in this case, data, and since that little human touched the Cylinder..." Knockout explained to Megatronus as he pressed the button to release the data from the Cylinder, only getting a poof of smoke from it.
"Dead battery sir." Tarn said.
"Well, if we have the Cylinder, then where's the data?" Megatronus asked as he scratched his chin.
-Back in the Autobot base-
Skywarp was looking down at Jack, Lindel and Raf doing stuff for their school art class, Jack was making a costume for a costume event his class was doing, Lindel was doing the same, Jack was making a attempt of a Medieval Mandalorian from Star wars.

"looking good." Jack said as Lindel finished up the straps on the arrow pouch on Jack's costume.
"Thanks Lindel." Jack said as he looked at her through his helmet.
Skywarp smiled as he saw the interaction between Jack and Lindel, then he looked down at Raf who was painting for his arts class as well, as he watched the small boy paint and then noticed a clean mop on the ground and picked it up. "Hey Raf? Got any spare paint?" he asked Raf.
-moments later-
Lindel walked into the command room and headed towards Elita and Arcee who were talking. "hey guys, come see what an artist Skywarp is." She said, Arcee and Elita both turned to her, they grew confused, Skywarp wasn't a natural Artist.
"What are you talking about?" Arcee asked.
-A few inches later-
Skywarp was mumbling about incoherent algorithms of old science as he painted Cybertronian symbols on the walls and floors. "Uh, is he okay?" Grimlock asked in his Dinobot form to Elita. "He's a god damn genius." she said.
"Elita, elaborate." StormReign said, wanting to know why Skywarp was rambling like Alchemist Prime on an off day.
"The Data Cylinder, it must have expelled it's data into Skywarp's head when the red beam shot out into Skywarp's forehead." Lindel said, interrupting Elita.
"Wait what!?" Elita said in a panicked tone.
Lindel stiffened a bit as Elita shouted. "Skywarp, when he was coming to help us and he tripped, I touched the Cylinder and a red beam shot out of the Data Cylinder and into Skywarp's head." Lindel explained further.
"Oh no...." Elita said, Arcee and the other Autobots noticed her worry. "Elita, what's wrong?" Arcee asked her. "Necrotic-reprograming." Elita said.
-in the medical room-
Skywarp was unconscious on the medical berth as the Autobots and humans looked at the progression in Skywarp's mind, the information of the Data cylinder had was slowly corrupting Skywarp's mine. "it's a good thing we caught onto it before any real damage can be done..." Elita said.
"How do we extract the information out of Skywarp's mind?" StormReign asked.
"Lindel-wait, we need a containment cylinder to store the information in, either that or some other pour bastard's mind." Elita said.
Everyone looked around for a while, but Grimlock only walked over to the groundbridge and activated it and walked through it. Everyone looked at where he went. "Uh..." Arcee started but Grimlock came back with a decapitated Veicon head and turned the Groundbridge off and walked up to Elita.
"Here." he said as he gave Elita the head, Jack and Lindel looked at each other for a moment in horror in this.
Elita hesitated to hold the head and she reached over and picked Lindel up and brought her closer to Skywarp, Elita then raised the head to face Skywarp who looked confused in a sickening look. "Uh..." "Just go with it." Elita interrupted Skywarp.
"Lindel, Touch Skywarp's head" Arcee then said and Lindel nodded as she climbed up to Skywarp's head and poked the side of his head, Grimlock was about comment on Lindel poking Skywarp but then the same red energy from the Data Cylinder exited Skywarp's optics and into the Veicon head, after that Skywarp passed out and Elita placed the Veicon head down.
StormReign then looked at Skywarp's Vitals. "he is Stabilizing, no true life changing memory loss" he said.
"thank Primus" Arcee said.
the Autobots settled down after that and Elita began decoding the Information in the Veicon head.
