...(Optimus' Perspective)...
The death of Cylob, Megatron and Justice. It was a huge blow to me. Made me realize, I'm not someone who can really be trusted.
The tragedy that happened back then has become ingrained. Permanent, cannot be erased or even forgotten. Whoever else is in this body, I hate them. He took everyone's expertise. Because of him I lost Megatron and Justice.
Even though at that time, I was very sure there must be another way to fix the family. But it was destroyed by someone else in this body.
And again, whoever this person is. He is not a part of me, he is just a pest that bothers, he must even be a scoundrel.

****
Once upon a time in the void of space. There was a planet that from the outside looked yellow-gray. This planet must be barren, seen from a distance like that.
This is the planet, the planet named Jupiter.
Descending into the rather large planet, it appeared to be dead. There were hardly any living creatures visible. But some oddly shaped ruins were there, proving that there had been life here before.
This planet seems to have experienced a tragedy that may have caused it to become uninhabited.
"Use!!"
"Use!!"
"Broken!!"
There was a banging sound from below, on the ground. An object, seemed to move as it was pushed upwards.
Until finally the object finally bounced. When the object bounced, behind it there was a hole that looked deep.
Then two steel hands came out, grabbing the ground to get out. Slowly, until finally his whole body was visible.
It turned out to be a Transformer with a fairly large body size.
Then the Transformers stood up and looked around. But it seemed like the Transformers thought it was normal and weren't that surprised.
"Hey Brown!! You just climbed in like that?!!" another man's voice came from the hole.
It turned out that the man standing outside was named Brown.
Brown clicked his tongue, "Tsk."
"Come on, hurry up, don't just stand there!" the person said.
Brown, who looked annoyed, had to help the man out of his hiding hole. Because the man was also Brown's colleague.
Brown grabbed the man's hand, then pulled him up—helping him up.
When he arrived at the top, the figure of the person looked familiar.
"Well, that's it. Be a little useful as a person!" the man said.
"Arcee! Come on, we're already up there, do you want to come with us?"
Arcee? Here's Arcee?! As we know in all Transformers series, Arcee is a woman.
Arcee then reached out her hand. Then the man and Brown helped pull her up. When they arrived at the top, they saw how beautiful Arcee was.
"What is this? You guys are pulling my hand so hard!" Arcee snapped.
"Huh? I pulled you slowly and carefully!" said the person.
"No wonder pulling Arcee was so hard earlier." Brown glared at the man.
"Ah, that means explain that it's wrong, Brown," said Mirage pointing at Brown.
"Say sorry first!" Arcee refused to turn to the two of them.
"Buk!" the man headbutted Brown.
"Come on and say sorry!"
"Tch." Brown tsked with his arms crossed.
"So women don't act up!"
As for Brown's nature here it's a bit cold.
"Hmph!" Arcee became increasingly unable to see the two of them.
"Buk!" Suddenly the person took action and kicked Brown's crotch, hahaha.
"Argh!" Brown screamed in pain.
"Come here Mirage!"
It turns out that the person who disturbed Brown is named Mirage. Mirage then runs and laughs after disturbing Brown.
Both of their behavior is very childish.
"So you're leaving?" Arcee said.
"Guys! Did you forget what we wanted?"
Brown sighed. "... Alright."
"Mirage! Come here!"
"Bluh," Mirage mocked.
"Tsk," Brown growled.
"Buk!"
Eventually Mirage's eyes turned X, and he was dragged closer by Brown.
"What's the plan?" Arcee asked, still reluctant to look at him because she was annoyed.
"We have to find our ship that was seized by Voidecay again," Brown said.
"Another ship? We better get some energon—I haven't cum in a few years since we've been here!" Mirage said.
"Tch." He clicked his tongue again, annoyed by Mirage's behavior.
He thought to himself, "Why do I have to have a team this stupid!"
"That's right, I'm afraid I'll become ugly!" said Arcee.
"Ha, right!" Brown grumbled in his heart.
"Arcee is the cause, she won't put me to bed." Mirage sulked not wanting to look at Arcee's face.
Arcee then smiled, "What did you say?"
"No way!" said Mirage.
"Come on! Don't act up. We need to get moving!" Brown said.
Brown then walked ahead. Mirage then stood up and started following behind Brown. Arcee also followed behind Brown.
They have to find their ship to get off the planet. They have been stuck on this planet for years, somehow they got here. From the symbols on their shoulders, they are also members of the Autobots.
....
They then arrived at a large ruined building, looking like an old castle that had been destroyed and abandoned for a long time.
"I don't know how long we've been here, and we've been going down this road! Isn't there another way, Brown?" asked Mirage.
"This road alone is the fastest without any bends, Mirage!" said Brown.
Arcee touched some of the ruins, and felt a little touched seeing some of the Transformers' bodies rotting under the ruins of the castle building.
Arcee then continues her journey. This is proof that the inhabitants of this planet are also Transformers.
They say there is Voidecay here, meaning this place is the hometown of Elita-1.
"What exactly did Sentinel mean by ordering us here? This is a stupid mission!" Mirage was heard starting to speak in a high tone.
"You can't just say that, Mirage!" Brown said.
"You're the only one who doesn't know, the reason I hate politics is because of this. Competing, during the campaign many people put their hopes on it, but it turned out to be fake," Mirage explained.
"It's up to you!" said Brown.
"Yes-yes-yes, that's your poor life, ready to be led astray by them." Mirage stood next to Brown.
"...." Brown stopped walking.
Mirage stopped walking, then turned around. "What's wrong?" he asked.
Brown then remembered some past moments that he hated from Mirage. Mirage was a very popular person in the Autobots, had many friends and was respected.
Meanwhile Brown, always stood under the lamplight sitting alone without anyone even knowing his name.
"... I hate you, Mirage." Brown clenched his fists.
Mirage sighed. "You're weird, Brown."
Brown and Mirage stared at each other sharply.
"You guys have been fighting each other, get moving!" Arcee snapped as she pushed them both.
She crouched down and looked at something on the floor.
"There are a lot of trap remains here."
Mirage and Brown ignored Arcee's words. Instead, they glared at each other.
"Dek!"
Suddenly the floor that Brown stepped on made a sound.
"Bukk!!"
Two rocks from the right and left shot quickly.
Arcee immediately ducked.
The rock hits Mirage and Brown and they accidentally kiss.
"Ugh!" They both vomited at the same time, having actually swallowed each other's saliva.
"Your teeth are touching my tongue, Ugh!" Mirage snapped as she continued to vomit.
Brown continued to vomit. "Yuck, your saliva is stuck in my throat, you bastard!" he snapped.
Arcee's reaction was flat, with her eyes literally just a flat line. These two idiots were already out of control, deep down.
It's also strange because they show each other's stupidity.
....
In a place under a high hill. There was a place that looked intact, and the light of the lamp illuminated it. The place was big and looked like a suspicious base.
It seemed like a sign that someone was there.
But Mirage, Brown and Arcee know this place, because they come here often.
"Oh my, our ship isn't there!" Mirage was shocked.
"Could it be that they've moved it?" asked Arcee.
"... This is bad!" Brown said, clicking his tongue.
Brown began drawing a map of the plan on the ground. "We've done this so many times, but somehow we always get away with it," he said.
Mirage then sat down. "Voidecay seems to be letting us keep trying, maybe because he knows we won't win."
Arcee then took a twig. "First we have to find out where our ship is being taken."
Arcee started scratching the ground with the branch. "Let's try entering from the side..."
According to Arcee's plan, they began moving to infiltrate their ship.
1. They infiltrated through the side door.
2. Making sure the guards were not patrolling.
....
"...Besides, the guards rarely patrol," said Mirage.
"Yeah, that's right," Arcee said.
....
3. Continue looking for their ship in each large room and they have to split up.
....
"Isn't it dangerous to split up?" Brown asked.
"No, remember the last time we split up," Arcee said, reminding them of their previous situation.
Voidecay always lets them get away with it.
....
4. Mirage checks the laboratory room, Brown checks the presentation room and Arcee checks the weapons room.
....
"But it's also strange because as far as I know there are only three large rooms," said Arcee while holding the walkie-talkie.
Mirage and Brown did not find their ship in the room.
"What should we do?" Mirage whispered.
"You guys won't like it," Brown said.
....
One of the two guards was relaxing sitting beside the door while playing a machine game.
"If I pass this level, you have to pay three times 100 RON," said the guard who was challenging his friend.
"Please, lose!" shouted his panicked friend.
"Ding-dong!!"
"No!!!" shouted his friend who lost the bet.
"Hahahaha," laughed the winner. "Now give me three times the 100 RON, hehehe."
"Bukk!!"
Unexpectedly, they both received a hard blow from the back of their heads which made them fall unconscious.
Then the two guards were dragged away.
....
"Hopefully the plan will work this time," said Arcee.
They held the two guards captive. Tied them tightly to the chairs.
Mirage then approached the two guards. "Hey, do you know where our ship is stationed?" he asked.
"Didn't Voidecay take you out yesterday?" one of the guards replied.
"ARGGHHH!! Let me go!!" shouted the guard next to him.
Arcee, Mirage and Brown stared at each other.
Arcee leaned against the hallway wall. "Argghhh... we can't go home!"
She started to whine like a baby, huh...
"There must be another way, we can use another ship, right?" Brown said.
Mirage then sat down. "Big body, tiny dick, we can't leave without our ship. Why? Because it's the only ship here." Mirage said while spreading an annoyed smile.
"Why are you guys giving up so quickly?!" Brown snapped.
"Uwaaa!!" shouted deliberately from Arcee.
"Can't you guys shut up?" Brown snapped because they were making as much noise as mosquitoes.
"Woaaahh!" Arcee screamed, intentionally making Brown's head smoke.
Those who were noisy were caught by several guards. They immediately ran in disarray and were thrown out of Voidecay's house.
"Can't you guys be serious?" Brown said softly.
"Brown, Brown," Mirage said casually.
Mirage walked away from Brown, "We're going to be stuck here because of you."
"My fault? It's your fault for not being cooperative!" Brown glared at Mirage again.
"It all started with you, if only you hadn't accepted Alpha Trion's request, we could still enjoy Cybertron!" Mirage snapped while continuing to point at Brown.
"Me?... You started all this, you and Arcee are the same. Burden, stupid and foolish. I wish this mission wasn't with you guys, but instead... Lord Trion chose you guys!" Brown replied.
"Heh!" Mirage chuckled.
He then took a deep breath. "Do we know each other? Because of what? Because I don't care to accompany a bastard like you, who won't admit his mistakes. It's because this is all your fault, your fault, and your fault!" he snapped.
Mirage then spat at Brown. "Cuh!"
"You want to perish, now?!!" Brown was furious.
They both started fighting again.
Arcee immediately approached them. "Stop, you guys!"
Brown and Mirage start arguing. They accuse each other.
"Slap!"
Until then, Brown lost control and accidentally landed a hard punch on Arcee.
"..."
"..."
"Arcee!!" Mirage immediately helped Arcee.
Arcee was knocked to the ground with pain on her face.
"N-no... A-Arcee... I-I didn't mean—"
Brown really didn't mean to slap Arcee. His hand shook from his mistake. His lips started to tremble because he didn't expect what he did.
Mirage turned slowly to look at Brown. His eyes stared sharply, as if revenge was born from the light of his eyes towards Brown who was chained behind him.
"Go away!" Mirage growled softly, still holding himself back.
....
Brown's lips still wanted to speak. As if he suddenly felt regret.
"I-"
"GO!!" Mirage's loud scream exploded and echoed in the air.
The sound of breathing was stuttering. But the heartbeat seemed to be snatched to be faster. Brown gripped his hand.
"Okay, Fine!!" he replied to Mirage.
Brown turned around, transformed into a vehicle in one motion and without waiting long stepped on the gas leaving Arcee and Mirage behind.
The glass of his vehicle reflected Mirage hugging Arcee. Arcee was scared because of Brown. But Brown didn't mean it like that.
Brown eventually had to give in, and began to realize that it was his fault.
"Are you okay, Arcee?" Mirage worried.
"Yeah... But my jaw hurts!" Arcee said.
But Mirage still kept that angry gaze even though Brown had moved far away from them.
It seems that their relationship is starting to get more fragile. Because of their current situation.
Brown is also at fault for not being able to control his emotions. Mirage is the same, she always makes a big deal out of Brown's problems even though they are just small ones.
They are separated now. Who knows what their next plan is to get back to Cybertron. Unbeknownst to them, the planet is no longer the one they knew.
To be continued....
