Optimus lost everything after Archa-7, his friends, his place in the academy and everything he thought was most important to him.
With no plan, no safety net under him without the academy and himself being too lost to his grief, he has nowhere to go... But when he has a chance encounter in a bar, he leaves Cybertron for good.
Who would have thought that split second decision when he had nothing left would lead him here, on some random off-planet mining colony working himself to dust...meeting Megatron himself who seemed...far kinder than he would have imagined.

I've Done It Again
An everlasting conflict between the Autobots and Decepticons ends, followed by the death of their leaders. Months later, a restless Prime sparks a battle of wills with Primus and gets himself kicked out of the Allspark. When he wakes, he finds himself and Megatron revived--with a twist. They don't look like themselves, and the Autobots don't believe Optimus is really Optimus. That leaves them with only one place to turn to, and the Decepticons there are more willing to take in the former Prime than they are Megatron. The definition of Megaop, as defined by this story: Megatron really wants to kill Optimus, but Optimus has bigger problems than Megatron's assassination attempts. #1 Megaop 2024 - Obvious cuz the definition is accurate ^Complete

Unknown Territory (TFP)
"One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it."- Master Oogway --- ~ BOOK 1 OF THE LIGHTBLADE SERIES Fate sometimes leads us to various circumstances ,be it for the better or worst. At least, that's what Lightblade tries to comfort herself with as she faces different challenging scenarios. Gentle and kind, one would have mistaken her for an Autobot, but ironically fate placed her on the wrong side of war, the Decepticons. Once again fate decides to surprise Ioa with encountering the Autobots, though not in the way she would want it. -------------------- Cover art by Dai-XT on Pixiv I do not own Transformers Prime, only the story and my OCs.
