Nahko's POV

"In order to both protect the Allspark and secure Unicron's defeat, it was necessary for me to empty the vessel's contents" Optimus tells us once we'd all gathered at the well.

"Into where?" Bee asks him.

"The Matrix of Leadership" Optimus answers.

"What's that mean for you?" I ask him concerned.

"As such, my own Spark can no longer be separated from the multitude of others within me" he states.

"Are you telling us that you are now one with the Allspark?" Ratchet asks him. Smokescreen chuckles.

"That's what you say when someone kicks the..." Smokescreen starts to say. But stops as we all look up at Optimus.

"To not return the Allspark to the well would be to prevent future generations of new life from existing on Cybertron. My quest must be completed" Optimus declares.

"Optimus, I didn't return to save a life only to lose the one I care most about" Ratchet tells him sadly.

"There's got to be something we can do" Jazz states.

"Ratchet's restored planets. He'll find a way to save you" Bulkhead tells Optimus.

"We can turn to Vector Sigma, just like we did before" Arcee adds.

"Guys, there is nothing we can do" I tell them as I hug myself. I'd hoped I'd have Optimus there to guide me. That we would lead Cybertron into a new era of peace together. As two Primes. Now, I must lead them alone.

"Because the Matrix must now be relinquished with the Allspark, it cannot be restored or passed down to another. But while this may very well mark the end of the age of Primes, Nahko you will be the last Prime. I know you'll make u proud" Optimus tells me.

"Are you sure I am ready to be a leader? That I can do this alone" I ask him.

"You are not alone Nahko Prime, you have the autobots and predacons on your side. Leadership can be earned with or without the Matrix and, in my view you have each acted as a Prime" Optimus states.

"Well, I... never really had the best role models" Knockout says sheepishly.

"As even Megatron has demonstrated on this day, every sentient being possesses the capacity for change" Optimus tells us. His jet pack appears. "I ask only this of you, fellow Autobots keep fighting the noblest of fights" he says.

"You can count on us to keep the peace" Bee assures him.

"I vow that this world will never again die. Not while I still draw breath and my spark still beats" I tell Optimus. Smokescreen grabs my hand and I squeeze it.

"Good bye old friend" Jazz says as Optimus takes off. We watch him disappear into the well of all sparks. As we hear his final words.

"Above all, do not lament my absence for in my Spark, I know that this is not the end, but merely a new beginning simply put, another transformation" he says. Before the well comes back to life with hundreds, no thousands of sparks flying out of it. Shooting into the sky, a rainbow of colours. I rest my head on Smokescreen's shoulder trying not to cry.

We hear a roar and see Predaking with the other two. Skylynx and Dark-steel. "It is time for me to go. But I know we'll see each other again soon" Dawn says and hugs me. "Good luck my sister and know that you'll always have the allegiance of the predacons" she tells me. Before transforming and leaving with the other three predacons.

"So what now?" Jazz asks me.

"Should we start repairing the ship?" Knockout asks.

"Continue building a landing platform for refugees?" Bulkhead asks.

"Restart patrols?" Ultra Magnus asks.

"You know what?" I ask them. "I think we've all earned a day off. So go take an oil bath, party, lob a ball around, or go for a drive. Just relax. The work can wait until tomorrow" I tell them. Jackie cheers with Bulkhead, Bee, Jazz and Smokescreen.

"Are you sure Nahko?" Ultra Magnus asks me.

"Yes, and tomorrow we can find a safe spot for this. Where can never be found or opened" I state gesturing to the relic containing Unicron. "Now go have fun, that's an order" I tell everyone. Most leave straight away. Arcee wanted an oil bath. Bee and Knockout went to race each other. The wreckers went to go find a ball to lob around. "Smokescreen, how about we finish our tour?" I ask him.

"Sure, race you to Iacon!" he cheers. He transforms and takes off. I chuckle and jet off after him. Leaving Jazz, Ultra Magnus and Ratchet at the Well of All Sparks.

It's been ten years since Optimus became one with the All Spark and life returned to Cybertron. When the refugees first returned. They were confused to see another Prime instead of Optimus. With the Autobots helped I told my story and together we built a statue of Optimus. Along with the rest of us who helped restore Cybertron.

Most accepted me as a leader. Thanks to Ratchet, Ultra Magnus and the others. Though some were unsure I was up to the task being so young and being a former human. But I've proven myself to them.

Today we celebrate the tenth anniversary since the restoration of Cybertron. Along with the first three sparklings of the New Cybertron. Dawn and Predaking's two sparklings. Nova-star and Predaking Junior. He looks just like a baby Predaking. While Nova-star is a mix of both her parents. The third sparkling is my own, little Orion. Who's the dad or sire you ask? Why it's Smokescreen. Took him three years to finally work up the courage to ask me out. We've been together ever since.

Life has been good. Though I am sad I've not been able to return to Earth in the last ten years. Because of having to lead Cybertron. But I still talk to my twin and the others on occasion. Miko wishes she could be here to meet her nephew. But she is busy with her new job as an official Agent and her new relationship with Jack. I so called it. Anyway, Cybertron has entered a new era of peace, harmony, and prosperity. I only hope it remains that way and nothing  threatens the peace again. I'd hate to raise my son in a war zone or for him to have to fight for his life one day.

The End
