Synopsis

Y'know, earlier in the book, he traveled pretty easily through space. Not the best plan, Prime.

Optimus Prime is the leader of the Autobots and the last of the great Primes! The evil Fallen is coming, but thankfully, Optimus Prime has the Autobots to back him up. Unfortunately, the Autobots have to deal with the Decepticons first. The Decepticons are defeated and The Fallen is thrown into space. The end!

Notes

• The book notes that as The Fallen absorbs energy, he grows stronger and stronger.
• The Twins pursue Sideways in their "upgraded" forms, not the ice cream truck.
• Optimus Prime defeats "Demolisher" together with Ironhide. In the daytime!
• Rampage, who isn't named, is absolutely huge.
• The Fallen is defeated by being "thrown into space". This isn't the first time Optimus Prime defeated his enemies by throwing them into space.
• When released in the United Kingdom, this book was combined with Rise of the Decepticons to make one book containing two stories.
