	Eventually, a surviving Prime named [[Sentinel Prime (ROTF)\|Sentinel Prime]] arose to save Cybertron and its natives. He gathered individuals from the various tribes that also realized they were all doomed if they kept relying on Cybertron's dwindling energy reserves. Together, the group rediscovered and dug out the AllSpark. [[Wheeljack (Movie)\|Wheeljack]] created a machine that, when hooked up to the AllSpark, could conduct a star to Cybertron from which the AllSpark could derive the energy to revitalize Cybertron. One Cybertronian tribe, the [[Thetacon (tribe)\|Thetacons]], believed that Sentinel Prime's group would sooner destroy the planet with their insane plan and so attacked them. Sentinel Prime ordered his followers to defend the site so Wheeljack could continue their work. Upon success, the Thetacons stopped their attack, acknowledged they had been wrong and asked Sentinel Prime's group what they would do now that they possessed the most valuable and powerful artifact on Cybertron.

[[Megatron (Movie)\|Megatron]] took an interest in the discoveries and came with Optimus to the [[Excavation site LT34\|excavation site]] just when the first whole artifact was unearthened.

	Eventually, a surviving Prime named [[Sentinel Prime (ROTF)\|Sentinel Prime]] arose to save Cybertron and its natives. He gathered individuals from the various tribes that also realized they were all doomed if they kept relying on Cybertron's dwindling energy reserves. Together, the group rediscovered and dug out the AllSpark. [[Wheeljack (Movie)\|Wheeljack]] created a machine that, when hooked up to the AllSpark, could conduct a star to Cybertron from which the AllSpark could derive the energy to revitalize Cybertron. One Cybertronian tribe, the [[Thetacon (tribe)\|Thetacons]], believed that Sentinel Prime's group would sooner destroy the planet with their insane plan and so attacked them. Sentinel Prime ordered his followers to defend the site so Wheeljack could continue their work. Upon success, the Thetacons stopped their attack, acknowledged they had been wrong and asked Sentinel Prime's group what they would do now that they possessed the most valuable and powerful artifact on Cybertron. Sentinel Prime replied that the AllSpark was not just theirs, but belonged to all Cybertronians, and that they only wanted peace, not power.
