Sometimes, people are born with gifts. Other times, you earn them. Is that what makes a hero? Or the alternative, you were born evil when your heart changes to good.
Would that make me a hero?
Incendium Haugen, constantly...
This chapter is just my way of connecting Dark of the Moon to Age of Extinction. Thank you :3

Incendium stared at her servos, then glanced back at Optimus.
"It's okay, you'll learn to control it." He assured. "I don't know what kind of power Shockwave gave you, but only you have the ability to control it."
"How's it going?" Lennox popped his head through the door. "Don't blow up anything, Incendium." He teased. Incendium let out a sarcastic laugh as Lennox bolted away. This was at least her twentieth attempt, but so far, her servos haven't heated up. There were brief occasions where she would feel something, but it would fade.
"Maybe you're pushing it away......you're scared of hurting others and I understand. Don't neglect your powers, embrace it."
"It be great if I knew how to do that." Incendium chuckled.
"Accept who you are."
"But who am I?"
"You tell me."
"Optimus—" Incendium protested but was met with a stern warning. Closing her optics, she began to list everything people had called her. Stupid. Freak. Violent. Impulsive. Decepticon punk. Megatron's heir. Captain. Red Eyed. Evil. Ares incarnate. An Autobot. She could feel her hands grow numb at the heat.
"Incendium?" Optimus let out a small gasp. "I think you can open your eyes." Incendium did, to see a small fire flickering above her servos.
"All Autobots to the main lounge." The announcer claimed with a hint of urgency to his voice. The flames were snuffed out as Incendium and Optimus slowly walked towards the other confused Autobots.
"The Decepticons are without leader.....which means we have a chance to take them out." Mearing informed. "How about we send an inside spy? Like Incendium?"
"Director Mearing, they know I'm an Autobot. I don't think they'll trust me."
"Then lie. Tell them that the Autobots betrayed you and that you're willing to join the Decepticons."
"I....."
"It'll be difficult, since we need to keep you hidden. Don't make them suspect you when reporting to us, that's how every spy gets caught." Mearing claimed. "It's just a suggestion."
"Director Mearing, I think it would be best after Incendium had some training for her powers." Optimus mentioned. Director Mearing nodded and dismissed everyone, Incendium stood, pondering. "Incendium? Are you alright?"
"Director Mearing!" Incendium called. "I'll do it, I'll spy on the Decepticons."

"Decepticons? Hello? It's Incendium, daughter of Megatron." Incendium called out, it was rumored that most of the surviving Decepticons went into hiding in caves. She heard the priming of multiple canons and red eyes glowing in the darkness.
"What are you doing here?"
"I came here to help you."
"Why? I thought you were with the Autobots."
"Not anymore." Incendium replied. The Decepticons shared a glance, lowering their weapons. "Here's the thing, your little scientist, Shockwave did something to me during the Battle of Chicago. He gave me 'powers'. Do you think you could help me control them?"
"Why? So you could use it against us? I doubt your loyalty as you betrayed us and the Autobots. What will you do once you learn to control your powers?"
