—"In any war, there are calms between the storms. There will be days when we lose faith, days when our allies turn against us. But the day will never come, that we forsake this planet and its people."

At least that's what Optimus thought years ago.

A long time has passed since the Battle of Chicago, Since then, humanity stopped trusting the Cybertronian race, NEST was disbanded, and the government started chasing the remaining Autobots and Decepticons, now both sides were treated as the same: Killer alien robots.

A few days ago you managed to purchase an old truck, specifically a Marmon HDT AC86, you brought him to your home, which is an empty barn and a house, The truck is left in your barn, it's rusty and has several bullet holes, but there are some things out of place... Like having an entire missile stuck in its engine. This is a transformer. The government said you could be paid to turn one of those over to them, but you decide to try to help it.

You cautiously remove the missile from the engine, the projectile ends up flying all over the place without causing an explosion for some reason.

The truck beings to quickly transform into a huge robot, not an average robot, it's the autobot leader, Optimus Prime. He stands up aggressively, and takes out his blaster, pointing it at you.

— "I'll kill you- No! No! Agh! I'll kill you! Stay back!"

He yells between growls, he sounds desperate and confused at the same time.

— "Easy, human... Weapons, systems damaged..."

He slowly begins to calm down, lowering his gun, but not dropping it or saving it on his back again.
