PRELUDE - WHEN CAN I SEE YOU AGAIN?

This is Earth. Home to mankind and protected, well, was protected by alien beings that call themselves the Autobots who came from a planet called Cybertron. They left Earth to go back to Cybertron. To bring life back to it.

They had settled on our planet because of the brutal war they were facing against their common enemy, the Deceptions. Megatron is their leader. He has annoyed the hell out of the Autobots for millennia and they had enough.

So glad he's gone.

Anyway, my name is Skylar White. I was eight years old when the Autobots left for their home planet. Me being the innocent and small kid was, I didn't understand. I thought they were just doing another mission and was coming back.

Well, I was VERY wrong.

It's been seven years. Seven years. I'm almost fifteen. I think if I ever did see the Autobots again they wouldn't recognize me.

Optimus and Bumblebee both promised me that they would come back. Well, when is that? Another 10 years? Maybe 15?

I never know. I'm just too upset to find out.

But I will admit. Strange things have been happening. It started about 3 years ago.

I always had dreams. Dreams about seeing the Autobots again, dreams that they came back to Earth and stayed, that they recruited more Autobots and they became my friends, dreams that Optimus and Bumblebee were there and they were never going to leave me again.

But I realized that that will never happen.

Then I have hallucinations. Mostly of Bumblebee and Optimus. Especially, Optimus.

And he talks to me?! What the hell is that about?! I don't know what's going on, but deep in my heart, I feel like their signs that the Autobots are coming back to Earth. And soon.

And boy was I right.
