A Hidden Story
Notes:
Inspired by The Bot Who Went Through Time by Commoncoral
This can be read as just TFA or a mixed universe.
The Autobots led by Optimus Prime were in a covert Autobot lab where experimentation for an energy source was underway. Due to the dangerous nature of the experiment, a secluded and hidden location was chosen for a lab.
Unfortunately, the Decepticons found the lab and attacked!
During the battle, an explosion occurred.
Waking up, Optimus Prime found himself on a Cybertron of the past. Unfortunately, he was smack-dab in the territory of Tarn. The most dangerous city-state on Cybertron, where crime, corruption, & brutality go hand-in-hand.
Knowing the danger he was in as well as the risks, Optimus opted to disguise himself with a new body and identity: Convoy.
He quickly found work where no one really cared who you were: Mining.
Luckily, he quickly made friends with another miner, Dion. He showed the young Convoy the ropes, and the two quickly became inseparable.
One day, a cave-in occurred. Convoy, furious at the foremen’s disregard for the trapped miners, immediately started the rescue effort. He, Dion, & others managed to save them.
The group was punished with cut pay and overtime for the resulting effect on production. Convoy, for leading it, was put on half-rations.
Later, at his hut in one of the miner camp-towns just outside the Tarn mines, Convoy received visitors. All but one were the mechs his actions saved.
Terminus, unfortunately, could not come with the others due to his damaged legs. Instead, he sent his son, Kilotron.
Kilotron was a gentle and noble soul within an intimidating frame. The mech was often visited by those who wanted him to work as a thug or a gladiator.
But Kilo was uninterested; he wouldn’t risk dying or killing.
After becoming closer with Kilo, Convoy later learned the young miner’s dream: to become a writer. One who could help, not just Tarn, but all of Cybertron to become better.
Something his grandmother, a Tarnian politician, failed to do. This resulted in her becoming a mining prisoner, and her son born in mining.
Over a short period of time, Convoy and Kiltron’s feelings became that of love. At first, Convoy tried to keep it platonic. But he started to lose hope that he’d ever return to his time.
One day, another cave-in occurred. This time, Convoy and Kiltron were trapped alone.
When they dug themselves out, something terrible greeted them. Among the casualties, Dion and Terminus had passed.
Convoy knew then: he or Kilo could die at any time.
That day, Convoy and Kilotron moved in together. In mining culture, they were now Conjux.
Time passed. Kilo moved up the miners’ informal ranks becoming a Head for a large team. Convoy had been reassigned to logistics and was now expecting their first sparkling. The two had become respected figures in their camp-town. They often met with other leaders to better organize the mine work and supply distribution.
One day, however, something terrible happened. The city-state of Vos, eternal arch-rival of Tarn, sent a squadron of bombers to various mining sites on the outskirts of Tarn. The plan was to take the mines for Vos by hitting the headquarters that were always a fair distance from the valuable mines themselves.
Unfortunately, Convoy and Kilo’s camp-town was right next to one of the targets.
Kilotron was still deep in the mines with his team. Convoy was surrounded by flames and panicking miners and civilians. He helped as many as he could escape.
Unfortunately, he himself became trapped. All hope seemed lost.
Then a portal appeared in front of him. Ironhide screamed Optimus’s name. Desperate, Optimus Prime ran through the flames and passed through.
Back in an Autobot lab, surrounded by old familiar faces, Optimus screamed in Ratchet’s familiar arms.
His Conjux was gone. Possibly dead in the attack. If not, he would die by the mines, Tarn’s corruption, the Vos’s attacks, by the Decepticon-Autobot war.
But worse than that, if Kilotron did survive, he’d be completely alone.
And the only thing Optimus had left of his beloved… was the sparkling he carried. The sparkling he would name Windblade.
When Kilotron finally came out of the mines, all he wanted to do was go straight back to Convoy and their unborn sparkling.
When he got out however, he was greeted by a group of miners led by one of the other camp leaders.
What he said caused Kilo to drop his tools and take off running. He ran, and ran, and ran.
Until finally he reached the hill that overlooked his home.
Where a dilapidated but lively camp-town once was, there was only smoking ruin and the smell of ash.
Kilotron let out a ROAR. One of grief… and rage!
That day, Kilotron… the miner… the writer… the mech with a family…
Was dead.
A short time later, Tarn’s infamous gladiator circle was shaken by the criminal lord Cryotek’s newest talent!
Megatronus!
