Transformers Prime Beast Hunters: Predacons Rising Page #4

- pull your strings.

- Do you not comprehend the

scope of this tragedy?

We three are proof that our

mighty race might once

again have flourished.

Their remains must be reclaimed,

if for no other reason

- than to be properly laid back to rest.

- And who made you boss?

I am not your boss.

I am your King!

Nah, Scream won't use it.

He needs us if he's gonna stand

- any chance of surviving Unicron.

- You misunderstand.

I do not intend to use this

warship for battle

but for quickly getting as far as

possible from this doomed planet.

Earth would be nice, now that

Unicron no longer seems

to be calling it home.

Shut up, you! Now move

away from the controls,

- Bulkhead, or get stiff!

- There's just one thing you've

overlooked, Scream.

That device you're holding ...

- not the Immobilizer.

- What?! What do you mean?

Aah-ya-yah!

I will silence you forever.

Huh?

Now will you believe I'm

joining the winning team?

- Knockout, we needed that!

- Wait. It... really was the Immobilizer?

Ha!

All hail... Predaking.

An impressive display for my creations.

But would it not be more logical

to employ your might

elsewhere this time?

Fine!

I hope Unicron destroys you first!

Why'd you do it, Knockout?

Why'd you turn against Starscream?

Even if I had helped him seize

this ship, he would have probably

just fired me out of the first airlock.

Oh ... and he's rude.

- Are we there yet?

- Right on schedule.

And so is Unicron.

- Resistance?

- From my own warship.

Demon hordes, take flight...

and eviscerate them!

Maybe Starscream had the right idea.

Zombiecon! Zombiecon!

Is it Optimus?

Predaking.

- More flying pests!

- Whom to root for?

The lines have certainly blurred.

Predacon allies.

You called it, B.

And to think Optimus almost

passed down the Matrix to me.

- Whoa. What?!

- Yeah, I said it.

But "right place, right time"

doesn't mean "right bot."

I know that now.

Brace for impact!

Whew!

Nothing a little

carnauba wax won't fix up.

Ugh.

Huh?

My legion, the time is upon us.

Destroy Primus with your dragon fire!

- We're the last line of defense.

- I would recommend leaving that

to those more suited for the task.

Skylynx! Darksteel!

Allow nothing to enter the well.

Really? This is how it ends?

We're not losing our planet ...

not without taking Unicron with it.

What?

A familiar resonance ...

pure energy, not unlike Primus...

one I have not encountered

since ancient days.

The Allspark!

- Optimus.

- I never thought I'd be so

happy to see that big rig!

We must keep the Allspark

from Unicron's reach.

I thought the container

was indestructible.

Indeed. But if this

vessel once trapped the Allspark,

I fear that it can

also be emptied of it.

So, the Prime returns!

Ugh!

Ugh!

Jacky!

Thank you, Prime, for

delivering the Allspark so that

- I may erase it from existence.

- Not while I stand before you, Unicron.

Megatron, you and I once united

to save a world from Unicron.

- We must do so again.

- Megatron may hear you,

but he cannot help you...

...for he is enduring eternal suffering.

Your efforts to protect

Cybertron's most sacred relic

are futile! My legion is

within reach of Primus ...

your planet's very core.

And we both know that the

Allspark cannot thrive

in a poisoned well.

Downside to wearing metal

near a Polarity Gauntlet...

You're subject to

the laws of magnetism.

Optimus, go!

Save the Allspark!

I've been worse.

So, how are we gonna

get that thing to safety?

By the only means available to us

under these most dire of circumstances.

The very survival of

our species upon this

or any world depends upon it.

I shall devour your Allspark whole!

What?! A trick?!

As a being comprised of

pure energy,

Unicron's Antispark was vulnerable

to this reliquary of the Primes.

- But if he's in there, where's ...

- Praise the Allspark!

- Master! You're alive!

- Indeed.

Your new battle armor will

take things to the next level,

my liege.

Together we will reunite all

Decepticons and once again

grind Cybertron under

- your mighty heel!

- No!

What? Why?

Because I now know the true

meaning of oppression...

and have thus lost my

taste for inflicting it.

Uh, you've clearly been

traumatized, master.

A good power-down and a

stroll around the smelting

pit will put you back in

touch with your inner warlord.

Enough! The Decepticons are

no more, and that is final.

Yes.

Well, we all have plenty to

think about, don't we?

This is not quite how

I envisioned my rise to the throne,

but since lord Megatron

all but surrendered it to me,

I will gladly revive the

Decepticons in my name.

Though

perhaps a throne is more

befitting of an actual King.

I am not here to seize

thrones, Starscream...

...but to settle scores.

In order to both protect the

Allspark and secure Unicron's

defeat, it was necessary for me

to empty the vessel's contents.

- Into where?

- The Matrix of Leadership.

As such, my own Spark can no

longer be separated from

- the multitude of others within me.

- Are you telling us...

that you are now...

one with the Allspark?

That's what you

say when someone kicks the...

To not return the Allspark to the well

would be to prevent future

generations of new life

from existing on Cybertron.

My quest must be completed.

Optimus, I didn't return to

save a life only to lose

the one I care most about.

Ratchet's restored planets.

he'll find a way to save you!

We can turn to Vector Sigma,

just like we did before.

Because the Matrix must now

be relinquished with the Allspark,

it cannot be restored

or passed down to another.

But while this may very well

mark the end of the age of Primes,

leadership can be earned

with or without the Matrix,

and, in my view...

you have each acted as a Prime.

Well, I... never really had

the best role models.

As even Megatron has

demonstrated on this day,

every sentient being possesses

the capacity for change.

I ask only this of you, fellow Autobots ...

keep fighting the noblest of fights.

You can count on us to keep the peace.

Above all,

do not lament my absence...

...for in my Spark,

I know that this is not the end...

...but merely a new beginning...

...simply put, another transformation.
