When All Lights Go Out I (TFP)

Chapter 83

Azura looked around her surroundings as she was standing on an open field with a pine forest to her right, and a cliff overlooking the ocean to her left. She could visibly see dust being blown by the wind, the specks of dusts swirled and danced from being kicked up by the wind. The grass waved gently, and yet the air felt cold. Very cold. Azura didn't recognize where she was at all, but she only knew was that she was afraid. And she didn't know why.

She turned around, and she jumped to see Megatron. She stepped back fearfully, only to realize that Megatron looked different. She saw electrified, dark energon chains around his wrists and neck, with his optics also glowing a dark purple and the decepticon symbol in the center of his chassis glowed dark energon. And he looked like he was in pain, as his body was quivering and he was groaning with what looked like liquid, dark energon dripping from his mouth.

"What is happening?" Azura whispered, fearful that she was going to anger someone, or get the attention of someone who might have bad intentions. Azura looked away from Megatron, and she gasped as she felt the sensation of the ground shifting. The plates of the earth seemed to grind against each other, sending vibrations through the crust. She shook her head as she became afraid. "What am I seeing and feeling?"

She looked at the ground as it seemed cracks were slowly starting to form in the earth, and she didn't understand why it was happening. However, the cold feeling was growing, and she also began to feel an evil feeling brewing as well. Azura wanted to run, but she got the feeling that no matter where she went, this feeling would follow her, and she would not escape at all, no matter how much she would try.

"A-Azura..." Azura yelped and turned on her heels, looking at Megatron with wide optics as she had not expected him to speak. And he spoke with such pain, and he looked at her with quivering optics. "He...h-he will come for you...you a-are a child of a Prime and th-the d-dragon...h-he will w-want revenge o-on th-the past. E-Even if y-you weren't b-born."

Azura stared at him in shock, as she had not expected him to say that. And she could not help but wonder who he was talking about. "What...what do you mean, Megatron? Who wants revenge?"

Megatron groaned and intakes loudly with a gasp. "Y-You know who h-he is, Azura. His e-essence flows th-through my veins..." Unicron! "He is t-trying to take c-control of me too. He w-will find you...and d-destroy you..." He yelled and dropped to one knee, making her back away from him. He looked up at her with his glowing optics. "I a-am s-sorry..."

Azura took deep intakes as she stared at him, knowing that Megatron would probably not say that in real life. This was a dream, and she knew it. But...what he was saying still felt like gravity weighing her down. She couldn't help but believe him. She felt her whole body shiver, and she turned when she heard the sound of blasters shooting in the distance. She gasped as there were explosions, and she did not know what was happening.

"Y-You are trapped..." She looked back at Megatron with wide optics. "On a-a world where he is a-already here. H-He will break through the c-crust and d-destroy this world. But...h-he does n-not need to do that t-to g-get to you..."

"Azura!" She turned her head away from Megatron, and she saw Optimus running towards her. She whimpered as she saw he was injured. The right side of his chassis had partially been torn by a blaster, his left shoulder was uncovered, leaving part of his protoform exposed and she could see energon leaking from him. She could not see all of his injuries as the sky began to turn dark purple, and the cracks suddenly widened. "Get out of here, Azura! Unicorn, he..."

Azura screamed as black and purple fire suddenly exploded from the cracks, making her duck and cover her head to try and protect herself, and she looked around as the fire burned over the ground. She looked towards Optimus, and she could not see him. She could bot hear him either, making her extremely worried and scared as to what might have happened to him. And she could not help but walk in his direction.
