	Meanwhile, events are unfolding on Earth.

	"Nemesis Prime" is brought to the [[Earth Defense Command]]'s [[Antarctica\|Antarctic]] base by Skids's team, where they meet with Optimus Prime's forces, who have returned from Cybertron. The enigmatic entity in Nemesis Prime's body, which calls itself the "[[Protector]]", calmly informs the Autobots that their mission was a success: the probe sent into the past was successfully used by the Autobots of the past to prevent Battle Ravage from changing the timeline. The Protector, however, was sent from the future by his masters, the "[[Alternity]]", and given the power to preserve the altered version of the timeline as its own distinct parallel universe. [[Sunstreaker (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Sunstreaker]] finds the whole concept hard to grasp and starts to get angry, and so the Protector explains that the [[Binaltech (technology)\|Binaltech]] [[Transformer]]s are an essential step in the evolution of the Cybertronian race that will eventually give birth to the Alternity itself; in essence, the Alternity sent him back in time to ensure their own existence would come to pass. Optimus Prime requests that the Protector tell them something about himself, but before he can, the personality data programmed into Nemesis Prime by Arkeville finally asserts itself. Nemesis Prime uses the Protector's power to open a portal back to Arkeville's lab, then ejects the Protector's spark from his body and escapes through the gateway.

	[[Overdrive]] uses his dimension-hopping abilities to confirm that the "correct" version of history has been reinstated, hesitantly revealing to Optimus Prime and the Autobots that in that universe, Prime died in battle, and [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Hot Rod]] was the Chosen One who replaced him as leader. The Autobots all react with disbelief (a few even with horror), but Hot Rod likes the idea, prompting Ultra Magnus, still carrying the Matrix, to tell him not to get any ideas!

Realizing that Megatron has returned from beyond time, Optimus Prime rallies the Autobots with a rousing speech about the future, and they roll out for action.

	In the assault against [[Unicron]], [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Optimus Prime]] is badly damaged, and, fearing his own death, passes the [[Matrix of Leadership]] to [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Ultra Magnus]]. Despite recognizing the fact that he is not the [[Chosen One]] of legend, Magnus bravely penetrates Unicron's body, and, shedding his outer armor, petitions the wisdom of the Matrix to allow him to wield its power. Magnus unleashes the energy of the Matrix, and Unicron is destroyed, but [[Prowl (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Prowl]] refuses to let the [[Autobot]]s relax even for a second, as he knows that the currently-in-hiding [[Shockwave (G1)\|Shockwave]] will be poised to summon [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Megatron]] and the full might of the [[Decepticon]] army back from the limbo to which [[Ravage (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Ravage]] displaced them.

	* The ''Alternators'' version of Nemesis Prime was released over six months prior to the ''Binaltech'' toy, and had a profile written for it by [[Hasbro]] writer [[Forest Lee]] that used the ''Binaltech'' storyline as its basis. This profile originated the idea that Nemesis Prime had been created by Doctor Arkeville and given life by a subspace link-up experiment, which Hirofumi Ichikawa proceeded to incorporate into this chapter of the ''Binaltech'' story. According to Lee, Arkeville tapped into the dimension that serves as Unicron's personal power battery, and that the lifeforce given to Nemesis Prime is a spark fragment supplied by Unicron from [[Nemesis Prime (Universe)\|the chaos-bringer's own attempt at cloning Optimus Prime]].		* The ''Alternators'' version of Nemesis Prime was released over six months prior to the ''Binaltech'' toy, and had a profile written for it by [[Hasbro]] writer [[Forest Lee]] that used the ''Binaltech'' storyline as its basis.

Meanwhile, events are unfolding on Earth. In the laboratory of [[Doctor Arkeville]], the evil scientist is putting the finishing touches to [[Nemesis Prime (G1)\|Nemesis Prime]], a dark copy of Optimus Prime that he has created, which has been programmed with personality data and requires a lifeforce to bring it online. Simultaneously, on [[Dinobot Island (G1)\|Dinobot Island]], [[Skids (G1)\|Skids]]'s team managed to hold off the attacking Decepticons, and Skids launches the probe containing [[Wheeljack (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Wheeljack]]'s memory data back in time in hopes of undoing the changes wrought upon the timeline by Ravage. Alas, rather than restore their universe to the way it should originally have been, the plan causes the destabilization of the space-time continuum, and time warps begin appear all across Earth. One of these warps materializes in Arkeville's lab just as he is attempting to bring life to his creation via a [[unspace\|subspace]] link-up, and from the warp emerges a [[spark]] that enters the lifeless Nemesis Prime's body. Now in control of the clone, the mysterious visitor teleports to Dinobot Island, where he uses his incredible powers over time and space to stop the chronal warps and repair the fabric of reality.

	"Nemesis Prime" is brought to the [[Earth Defense Command]]'s [[Antarctica\|Antarctic]] base by Skids's team, where they meet with Optimus Prime's forces, who have returned from Cybertron. The enigmatic entity in Nemesis Prime's body, which calls itself the "[[Protector]]", calmly informs the Autobots that their mission was a success: the probe sent into the past was successfully used by the Autobots of the past to prevent Ravage from changing the timeline. The Protector, however, was sent from the future by his masters, the "[[Alternity]]", and given the power to preserve the altered version of the timeline as its own distinct parallel universe. [[Sunstreaker (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity\|Sunstreaker]] finds the whole concept hard to grasp and starts to get angry, and so the Protector explains that the [[Binaltech]] [[Transformer]]s are an essential step in the evolution of the Cybertronian race that will eventually give birth to the Alternity itself; in essence, the Alternity sent him back in time to ensure their own existence would come to pass. Optimus Prime requests that the Protector tell them something about himself, but before he can, the personality data programmed into Nemesis Prime by Arkeville finally asserts itself. Nemesis Prime uses the Protector's power to open a portal back to Arkeville's lab, then ejects the Protector's spark from his body and escapes through the gateway.
