Chapter 1: The Last Spark

Neesis Prime stood in the midst of the desolate battlefield, gazing at the remains of her fallen comrades. The once-vibrant world of Cybertron was now a broken shell of its former glory. The AllSpark—the very heart of their existence—was slowly dying, and with it, the last remnants of hope for their planet.

The council had called her in for a final mission. She was their most capable warrior, the only one they trusted to carry out the impossible. The mission was simple, yet it weighed heavily on her circuits.

"Your task is to infiltrate Earth, Neesis Prime," Optimus Prime's voice echoed in her mind, even though he was far away on Cybertron. "We believe the key to our survival lies there. You must scan a human mode—blend in with their society. But more importantly, discover what keeps the AllSpark alive. You are our last hope."

Neesis had always been a soldier, her existence defined by war. The thought of becoming something—someone—else, of scanning a human alt mode, felt... wrong. But it was necessary. And Neesis never shied away from necessity.

With a heavy sigh, she activated her launch sequence. Her massive frame shifted into the sleek, aerodynamic form of a spacecraft, and she shot into the vastness of space, leaving behind the ruins of Cybertron and the memories of her fallen brothers and sisters.


Chapter 2: A World Unknown

The planet Earth loomed before her—a world of blues and greens, so alien yet so familiar. Her scanners began their work as she entered the atmosphere. Her craft spun and dipped as she adjusted to the planet's gravity, finally landing in an isolated forest, miles from civilization.

Neesis transformed into her new form—a human one.

A massive rush of information flooded her processor. Her sensors blinked erratically, trying to make sense of the human biology that now defined her. Her movements were stiff, awkward. This human form was far less efficient than her true form. Every step felt like she was walking on foreign soil, her circuits struggling to adjust.

But there was no time for hesitation. Neesis, despite her human appearance, was still an Autobot at heart. Her mission was clear. She needed answers.

In the distance, the faintest movement caught her eye—an anomaly in the otherwise still forest. Neesis narrowed her eyes and reached for her weapons systems. Something wasn't right.

Before she could react, a voice—human, female—broke the silence.

"Are you okay?"

Neesis froze. A girl—human, no older than eighteen—stood a few feet away. She was tall, athletic, with sharp eyes that observed everything, as if she could see right through Neesis's disguise.

"I... I'm fine," Neesis replied, her voice slightly strained. It was strange. Speaking felt... different. Foreign. But she managed to keep her tone calm.

The girl eyed her with suspicion. "You sure? You don't exactly look like you belong here."

Neesis glanced around. She had scanned the area and knew it was far from any human settlement, yet here this girl was. "I... I'm just... lost," she said, the words coming out more convincingly than she felt.

The girl raised an eyebrow. "Lost, huh? Well, that's convenient." She stepped closer, her gaze never leaving Neesis. "You don't look lost. You look like... you're running from something."

The tension in the air thickened. Neesis, sensing the girl's keen perception, activated her internal systems to analyze her surroundings. The girl wasn't alone. Neesis could sense several others in the distance—lurking, watching. Her sensors pinged.
