He is indeed, and there he shall remain.

*Images flash through his mind. His rejection at the violet volcano, titanic behemoths of rock shattering beneath him, the booming voice all around him, all that power rushing through him, all-consuming…*

Irritating.

Good, good- he won’t wake up or anything again, right?

Really? Was fighting him that annoying? I heard you teamed up with us- all the Autobots for a bit, is that true? What was that like? You didn’t see our base, did you?

He was put to rest using the same power that kept him dormant for eons before that. It took an interplanetary event to wake him the first time.

I did see your base. *Before he destroyed it.* I could sense Unicron’s inner workings, and used your ground bridge to get us inside unharmed. Neither of us could have defeated him alone, that much I will admit.

…Would you say that’s accurate?

No, not exactly- I mean, I guess it was part of it, but… It took a little while before I started working with you- I didn’t start just after you offlined Optimus- that’d be fragged up. I hated you for a while, you know. But it was more like… It’s my world, too, you know? I didn’t want to lose it again.

… A fair amendment.
