Transformers Prime: The Decepticon Human's Return

Chapter 17 Dinobots and Autobot reunion

Arcee POV

When everyone was finally dismissed, all the Wreckers decided to go off and do their own thing, bringing Miko along with them. However, me, Jack, Ratchet, Chromia, Ironhide, Drift, Crosshairs, Bumblebee, Raf, the Dinobots, Sunstreaker, along with Sideswipe's help, decided to go to the main bridge and talk about the good old days of Cybertron, before the war.

"And then, Sunstreaker swipes at the bot, knocking him unconscious and giving victory to the Autobots that day." Sideswipe said, talking about previous battles with the Decepticons.

"And that is how we were called the 'Terror Twins.'" Sunstreaker said, smirking and showing off his blades to Jack and Raf, seeing if he could scare them.

However, Jack and Raf looked amazed by what they all had gone through and kept asking questions about the past and what we did before. This caught both Twins off guard, but they happily told more stories, liking that the humans were afraid of them.

While everyone was talking, I was thinking over everything that has happened in the past few years. How I lost both my partners, the war, coming to earth, meeting Enigma for the first time, and the alliance we now have with the Decepticons. Everything that has happened, all choices, have led us to this very moment, the war ending and peace finally beginning.

"Hey Cee?"

I looked up and saw Jack looking at me, concerned.

"You have been quiet for a while, everything alright?" Jack asked and I could only smile at what he said.

For so long, I have told others that I am fine, but in reality, I have not been. My main focus for many years was the war and how to end it, but also my need for avenging my partners who died during the war. Now, I see how much vengeance has clouded my processor and how I have been lying about how I felt for so long.

"Yes Jack, just thinking about everything that has happened in the past few years." I said and Chromia, my sister, came up to me and hugged me.

"You've all been through so much in the past years of being on earth and on Cybertron. While we don't know much about what happened, you have us now. And I don't plan on going to the Allspark anytime soon." Chromia said and I chuckled a bit, hugging her back, but felt others joining the hug.

"Grimlock not leaving friends again?" Grimlock said, while the other dinobots did light roars, agreeing with him on that statement.

Ratchet added, "I haven't seen many of our old allies in so long, it brightens my spark seeing them all alive and fills me with hope that I thought was long gone."

Soon, the others joined me, and I held out my servo for Jack to join the hug and Bumblebee grabbed Raf and pulled him into the hug. We all stayed like that for a very long time, not caring about what would happen now, or tomorrow, or even the next day, we were all contempt and satisfied where we were right in that moment. In those moments, I did something I never thought I would ever do, I let go of all my anger, hate, and vengeful thoughts.

When releasing them, it made me feel like I didn't have a weight on my shoulders anymore, that if I ever did offline, that I wouldn't have to worry about my team, no, my family.

'I promise on my very spark, that no one will ever be offlined again and that everyone will be protected, once and for all.'

Those were my last thoughts as I hugged everyone even tighter, feeling something for the first time that I thought was long lost in my life: peace and love.
