"How long have you been in here?"
You were sitting in the Void of the Omnimatrix with B-127. He sat in front of you, his hand gripping the handle of his hammer while staring at you. You'd been asking him questions for a while now, not like you could do much else in here. Plus it was helping you calm your nerves about dying
"My spark was used to help power the Omnitrix"
You quickly waved your hands. Sparks were essentially a Transformer's heart, according to what you knew, so how could that possibly work? "You are telling me you died so the Omnitrix could be made?"
He shook his head "No. When Azmuth, the creator of the Omnitrix found me, I had crashlanded on a planet he was collecting samples on. I was badly damaged, I didn't have much more time before flatlining. In the beginning, he told me no. Said something about a Cybertronian being in the Omnitrix would bring nothing but war"
You couldn't say he was wrong. After all, Blitzwing only came after you because he thought you were with the Autobots
"It took some convincing, but he allowed me to use the Energon radiating from my spark to power the device"
"Woah... So all the times the Omnitrix saved me, that was you?"
Again, he shook his head, which confused you "The only time I was helping you, was when Zs'skar tried to escape from the Omnitrix. Other than that, I have done nothing"
"But then... who--"
"When my spark was engraved into the Omnitrix, not only did it absorb its energy, but it created its own. My Cybernucleic Acid mixed with its parts, creating a consciousness in the Watch"
"Wait... So the Omnitrix is alive?"
"The Omnitrix is you"
...
...
...
...
...
"Eh?" Your head tilted as your brain shut down from the statement
"It's somewhat of a symbiotic relationship" He said, confusing you even further "The Omnitrix was made to bring understanding to multiple other species. It was meant to find Max Tennyson due to the pod it came in, but an unfortunate event knocked its sensors off course"
Your mind went back to the sharp turn that the Omnitrix took before landing in front of you in a crater. Good times
"It knew nothing but to reach out to the first person that reached out to it. That person being you..."
Your mind went back to the time that you tried to get it off with everything you could and nothing seemed to be working before you ran into Ai "...Wait a minute! That means it's been turning off on me on purpose"
Bumblebee held a hand up to halt your ire "It may have a consciousness, but that does not mean that it can control all its actions. Like when you must use the bathroom and sleep, the watch must recharge and turn off to do so. It cares about you, Y/N. If you remember when they tried removing it"
You definitely remembered it alright. You'd never felt so much pain before
The Omnitrix sending out a shockwave and transforming you into Vilpax was unforgettable as well "So, what... The Omnitrix is like my guardian or something?"
"More like an extension of you. It has sentience and can make its own decisions, but it decides to allow you full control over it" He explained, his servo stretching out over the pitch-black terrain "This used to be a lot brighter, that was before you arrived. My guess is, the Omnitrix is trying to bring you back, but can't"
