We see a flashback, taking place in an alternate universe. We see [[Optimus Primal]] leading the [[Children of Primus]] against the [[Minions of Unicron]] in the [[Pit]]. Primal's team consists of [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]], [[Tap-Out (G1)|Tap-Out]], [[Longhorn (Universe)|Longhorn]], [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]], [[Sunstreaker (G1)|Sunstreaker]], [[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]], [[Fireflight (Universe)|Fireflight]], [[Omega Prime]], [[Whirl (Universe)|Whirl]], [[Repugnus (Universe)|Repugnus]], [[Trailbreaker (G1)|Trailbreaker]], [[Silverbolt (BW)|Silverbolt]], [[King Atlas]], [[Roulette (Universe)|Roulette]], [[Prowl (RID)|Prowl]], [[Side Burn (RID)|Side Burn]], and possibly [[Gunbarrel (Armada)|Gunbarrel]]. [[Razorclaw (Universe)|Razorclaw]] leads the opposition, consisting of [[Reptilion]], [[Tankor (BM)|Tankor]], [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]], [[Obsidian (BM)|Obsidian]], [[Nemesis Strika]], and possibly [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]].
''[[Optimus Primal]] leads the [[Child of Primus|Children of Primus]] against the [[Minion of Unicron|Minions of Unicron]] in the [[Pit]]. [[Razorclaw (Universe)|Razorclaw]] leads an opposing force. During the middle of this battle, due to the [[Unicron Singularity]]'s effects on the multiverse, [[Unicron]] began to fall apart underneath them. The Minions of Unicron were left to their doom while Optimus Primal's team gather themselves and head for an escape portal. Omega Prime expected to find himself on "Primal's technorganic Cybertron" on the other side of the portal, but instead found himself here, in a [[Malgus]] universe.''


During the middle of this battle, due to the [[Unicron Singularity]]'s effects on the multiverse, [[Unicron]] began to fall apart underneath them. The Minions of Unicron were left to their doom while Primal's team (including Blackarachnia, carried away by Silverbolt), gather themselves and head for an escape portal. Omega Prime expected to find himself on "Primal's technorganic Cybertron" on the other side of the portal, but instead found himself here, in the [[Unicron Trilogy]] universe.
Downshift is surprised to hear that this guy is "Optimus Prime". He doesn't look like the Optimus Prime he knows. Vector Prime is saddened, as Optimus's dimension-hopping tale confirms his fears. The Unicron Singularity, the black hole hovering over Cybertron, is causing the fabric of the multiverse to go wonky. All Unicrons everywhere are now trapped inside it. The past, present, and future are beginning to unravel. It could even explain those pesky memory problems the Autobots searching in this universe for the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s are experiencing.


{{note|Yes, the flashback described in the previous two paragraphs gave us a glimpse at the end of the never-completed [[Universe (2003 comic)|Transformers Universe comics]].}}
Vector Prime pleads with Sentinel Maximus to take Skyfall far away and keep him safe, and disappears in a flash of light. Where did he go, they ask. A disembodied voice says that it can answer that question.

The voice belongs to the [[Mini-Con]] leader [[Over-Run (Armada)|Over-Run]], who speaks through Vector Sigma. He is Vector Prime and Sentinel Maximus's unknown ally who turned on the [[autogun]]s at [[Kalis Primary Energon Reserves Control]]. Downshift thinks he remembers him, but thought he died. Over-Run notes that he did indeed, but the [[Decepticon]] [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]] had killed him while the Mini-Con was uploading himself to the Planetary Network. His death finished the process.

Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus explain where they came from, and Vector Prime and Sentinel Maximus' unknown ally is revealed.

Synopsis

Weary, Vector Prime enters the Chamber of Alpha Trion. Alpha Trion himself is still in the repair bay where Vector Prime had previously left him. Vector Sigma sits crumbled in the center of the chamber. He orders Downshift to put Skyfall on the table so that the repair drones can fix him. Skyfall is muttering in Ancient Cybertronian.

Just watch, we'll manage to fit this image on every page somehow.

Optimus Prime, Sentinel Maximus, and Ultra Magnus enter the chamber, and remark at Vector Prime's state of disrepair. (The explosion of Skyfall's force field bubble damaged them both.) Sentinel Maximus asks how Optimus and Magnus got here. Optimus Prime explains...

Optimus Primal leads the Children of Primus against the Minions of Unicron in the Pit. Razorclaw leads an opposing force. During the middle of this battle, due to the Unicron Singularity's effects on the multiverse, Unicron began to fall apart underneath them. The Minions of Unicron were left to their doom while Optimus Primal's team gather themselves and head for an escape portal. Omega Prime expected to find himself on "Primal's technorganic Cybertron" on the other side of the portal, but instead found himself here, in a Malgus universe.

Downshift is surprised to hear that this guy is "Optimus Prime". He doesn't look like the Optimus Prime he knows. Vector Prime is saddened, as Optimus's dimension-hopping tale confirms his fears. The Unicron Singularity, the black hole hovering over Cybertron, is causing the fabric of the multiverse to go wonky. All Unicrons everywhere are now trapped inside it. The past, present, and future are beginning to unravel. It could even explain those pesky memory problems the Autobots searching in this universe for the Cyber Planet Keys are experiencing.

Vector Prime pleads with Sentinel Maximus to take Skyfall far away and keep him safe, and disappears in a flash of light. Where did he go, they ask. A disembodied voice says that it can answer that question.

The voice belongs to the Mini-Con leader Over-Run, who speaks through Vector Sigma. He is Vector Prime and Sentinel Maximus's unknown ally who turned on the autoguns at Kalis Primary Energon Reserves Control. Downshift thinks he remembers him, but thought he died. Over-Run notes that he did indeed, but the Decepticon Starscream had killed him while the Mini-Con was uploading himself to the Planetary Network. His death finished the process.

Over-Run asks them to do him a favor, now that Vector Prime, weakened severely, is back on Earth. Sentinel Maximus is asked to help repair Vector Sigma. Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus are sent to secure the Dead Matrix in the Rare Items Locker at the Archives.

As they start this task, a shadowy figure watches them from afar.

(Numbers indicate order of appearance.)

Notes

  • At this point, the Autobots have located a key, but so have the Decepticons.
  • This comic depicts events that take place in the continuities of the Universe and Energon comics, both recently unfinished series.
  • In the flashback, Optimus Primal is in his 10th Anniversary body. Sunstreaker and Sideswipe are both back in their original Generation 1 bodies. It's possible Longhorn is a new form for Ramulus, due to his prominent placement.
  • Rhinox is fighting Tankor, which is pretty cool, if you think about it.
  • Vector Prime says the black hole seems to be causing memory problems with the Autobots. This, uh, appears to be an explanation for all the continuity errors between Energon and Cybetron's television series present in the dubbing.
  • And yet, Downshift seems to remember events which apparently happened in the comic book version of Energon. Fans have heard rumors that the Cybertron cartoon may be meant to take place after the Energon comic instead of the cartoon.
