In this fan-made prequel to Transformers: Prime and my fan-made sequels to it, comes the origin story of Optimus Prime as he started out as a clerk named, Orion Pax, and how he wanted to set things right the prevent horrible disasters for the better...
Two days had elapsed since Orion Pax and his companions rescued Megatronus, now preferring to go by "Megatron," and vanquished the Quintessons by obliterating their mothership. Despite the apparent peace on Cybertron, the Caste System persists, leaving many lower caste Cybertronians in hardship. Megatron remains resolute in his quest to aid his people, especially after he changed from a miner, to a gladiator, and to a revolutionary, yet his disdain for the Autobots and the upper echelons of society complicates matters. To enact change, Orion Pax and Megatron must present a viable solution to the Autobot High Council to make Cybertron a better place and spark a new golden age. However, Megatron's animosity towards the Autobots and his aspiration to lead a revolution alongside his followers pose a threat. While Sentinel Zeta Prime fears an uprising or war, Orion Pax and Alpha Trion strive to temper Megatron's ambitions.
In Iacon, a prominent figure from the Autobot Elite Guard emerges from his landed ship. Sharing the same first name as Sentinel Zeta Prime, he is known within the Elite Guard solely as Sentinel Major. Revered among his peers for his combat prowess and dedication to combating Quintesson threats, Sentinel Major's demeanor belies his accomplishments. Despite his high rank, skills, and tenure, he exudes arrogance and disdain towards lower caste Cybertronians. His self-righteousness and vanity drive him to vie for the position of Sentinel Zeta Prime's second-in-command by any means necessary. The Elite Guard comprised thirty-six bodyguards tasked with protecting the High Council. Sentinel Zeta served among their ranks before ascending to the positions of High Councilor and Prime. The Cybertron Elite Guard were the main defense force of Cybertron and the elite combat unit of the Autobots and Sentinel Major who shared the first name as Sentinel Zeta Prime was one of the members of the Cybertron Elite Guard and today, he was going to the Iacon Hall of Records to meet the data clerk and supposed brave young hero, Orion Pax, who was involved with defeating the Quintessons when he and his friends rescued Megatron.

(What Sentinel Major looks like in this fanfic. Yes, he looks like TFA Sentinel Prime)
As the sun's radiant beams bathed the metallic expanse of Cybertron, Orion Pax, the diligent data clerk, found himself in the bustling halls of the Iacon Hall of Records. His attention was consumed by the holographic interface before him, fingers dancing across the terminal with practiced precision. Suddenly, the air stirred with a palpable sense of importance as the imposing figure of Sentinel Major, flanked by the formidable Cybertron Elite Guard, entered the grand hall. Orion couldn't help but feel a surge of curiosity mingled with a hint of trepidation at the sight of the esteemed leader.
"Orion Pax," Sentinel Major's voice resonated with authority as he approached, his presence commanding attention. "I've heard much about you."
Orion's gaze lifted from his work, meeting the stern visage of Sentinel Major with a mixture of surprise and reverence. He had heard tales of the Elite Guard's exploits, but to stand in their presence was a moment he had never anticipated.
