[tripodeca113]

(6.66 out of 20 pages)


Orion Pax has journeyed deep underground to visit his mentor Codexa, who has gone into a deep slumber and merged with Cybertron.

Codexa is not entirely coherent, and mistakes her pupil for the voice of Cybertron. Still she does remember two young Transformers by the name of Orion Pax and Megatron, who were friends...

Two Megacycles Ago: Cybertron is rebuilding after the War of The Threefold Spark.






The two were friends for years, but recently Orion has begone to wonder if he ever really knew Megatron...

Three Hundred Kilocycles Ago: Construction of the Winged Moon is completed, and Megatron and Orion meet at the Tether before the grand opening.





Orion also has news, he plans to leave Cybertron for a time and visit the colony worlds.



Megatron stops the elevator. He had another purpose for his journey, a way of testing his resolve.





But the stability is an illusion, the planet the moon and the sun are constantly in motion. There is no true equilibrium.



The pair begin to fall towards Cybertron. Aiming for the Leachate Lagoon, Megatron tells Orion to wait until the very last moment to activate their levitators (he planned to use both himself, but still went ahead with it, when he had an additional person.....)

Megatron's activates successfully, allowing him to land safely, while Orion's breaks.

Poor Orion just seems so lonely here :(

And Megatron is an example of how dangerously easy it is to twist someone's mind by filling it with propaganda
