PROLOGUE
Note: For those who are tuning into this channel, if you don't want to know the full story, then turn back right now! However, if you're sure you want to see a world unseen, then I must tell you that these stories are more than meets the eye…
You know what exciting thing happens in Jasper, Nevada?
Nothing, because this town was practically the "middle of nowhere" as the inhabitants say.
Yeah, I know I'm being "crass" but it's true. Nothing ever happens here. But I have to stay on high alert for any cosmic or other worldly threats.
How do I know this?
Because I am Arcee, an Autonomous Robotic Organism, or Autobot from the planet Cybertron. I guess you could say that I am a loner and hardly take anyone on as a partner. However, I make the occasional exception, by having Cliffjumper as one for the last three years. My previous one had been Tailgate, who had been killed and tortured in front of me by my worst enemy, Arachnid, Queen of the Insecticons and a pain in my aft.
But I'm getting ahead of myself.
Before Cliffjumper and I had first gotten here, the team had faced very dangerous challenges trying to keep the planet safe. The Autobots before us were Optimus Prime and his team, on the other hand, have had been on the planet since the Ark crashed six million years ago.
When the forces awoke in 1984, human forces formerly known as Sector Seven tried to capture them. For nineteen years, Optimus and the Autobots hid from the Humans as much as possible. However, they had to work together in an epic battle that took place in Mission City in 2005. It was there that Optimus managed to banish Megatron from Earth. However, the casualties were heavy. Optimus does not like to talk about it because the casualties were both humans and his old comrade, Jazz.
When Cliff and I received his distress call, it had been mere months since Jazz was killed when we had come to Earth. After a death-defying encounter with Shockwave and Starscream, Cliff and I met Optimus, Bulkhead, Ratchet, and Bumblebee were the only ones who remained, with us offering our assistance. However, by this point, Ironhide had become partners with some colonel in the humans' military. The Colonel's name was Lennox and, well Ironhide liked his no-nonsense but responsible and warrior-like personality. For the next two years, that snake Starscream and his army of Deceptions (If Jack and Sam are reading this, you know why I refer to Starscream as such...) stayed on the planet, but eventually pulled away.
Since then, Optimus has relocated the six of us to this town in the middle of nowhere. However, he still hopes to better the relationship between the Government and the Autobots. Having Fowler as a contact works to keep peace between us and agrees with Optimus' request that human civilians to remain unaware of us.
There has been little to no Decepticon activity since 2007 and hardly any civilians who know we exist,
Until now...
For these stories are about to become a new reality and open a whole new world to you, whether you like it or not. And our relationship with these humans will never be the same again...
