| This is Apocrypha
The content of this page is considered to be apocrypha or pseudocanon. Fiction that is considered pseudocanon generally falls into one of two categories. It is most likely either unofficial fiction from an official creator that is so informative as to the creator's thought process and/or so influential to the fandom as to be worth documenting, or fiction that is published in such a way as to render it unofficial, such as fan works published as ancillary or bonus images/fiction with other official work. As such, new ideas and concepts introduced here may not hold true for work that is completely canonical. |

Synopsis
Optimus Prime visits the archivist Alpha Trion, who is recording Cybertronian history in the Covenant of Primus with his Quill. Alpha Trion expresses his doubts that the Autobots can keep the AllSpark from the Decepticons. The two decide that the AllSpark should be launched into space using a failsafe device to keep it out of Megatron's hands.
Optimus Prime breaks the news to his trusted lieutenants. Bumblebee objects, but Ironhide tells him to listen. Optimus Prime assembles a team who will make their way to the Well of All Sparks where the failsafe controls are. On their way there, the Autobots are intercepted at the Tyger Pax bypass. Optimus Prime quickly came up with a plan to deal with them. Jetfire would create a diversion while Ultra Magus and the Wreckers provided cover for the Well of AllSparks. Bumblebee and Cliffjumper were ordered to harry the Decepticons in order to slow them down.
Bumblebee and Cliffjumper encountered Barricade and attacked. They quickly incapacitated him. Jetfire lured three Seekers into the Wreckers' crossfire, but the Wreckers were under attack by Megatron. Optimus Prime, Jazz, Ironhide, and Arcee made it to the Well. Arcee entered the launch codes since Primes were not allowed to as a failsafe. Fighting continued until the AllSpark blasted into space. Bumblebee laughed and taunted Megatron. In response, Megatron crushed Bumblebee's vocoder to shut him up, but let him live.

Quotes
"When I was a clerk I never had to worry about lives."
"It was never going to be any other way, Optimus. I knew you were destined—"
"To trade the caste system for Decepticon tyranny?"
- —Optimus Prime and Alpha Trion.
"And if you’re looking for the AllSpark, you’re going to have to go find it. Arcee fired it off, bam! Gone! Maybe it’s you that failed for the last time. Well, no. Probably not. We’ll set you up so you can fail once more, at least."
- —Bumblebee to Megatron.
"You talk too much, Autobot."
"Everybody says that. Coming from you, I’ll take it. Hey, did you see that AllSpark? That was something, the way it flew out into space completely out of your reach—"
<Megatron chokes Bumblebee>
"You mock me, mech? That is the last time you mock anyone."
- —Megatron puts an end to Bumblebee's Bluestreak impersonation.
Notes
- Cameos: Unnamed data clerks, Seekers, and Wreckers.
- Ultra Magnus leads the Wreckers. Rodimus and Springer are members.
- Robot modes are called "protoforms".
- Belief controls the AllSpark, not power.
Errors
Transformer references
- Several locations were taken from past fiction. Those include the Hall of Records, Iacon, Kalis, the Well of AllSparks, Six Lasers Over Cybertron, Nova Cronum, the Tagan Heights, Tyger Pax, Polyhex, and Crystal City.
- "Orion Pax" references Optimus Prime's original self from the Generation 1 episode "War Dawn" and was made Prime.
- The basic plot, involving Bumblebee losing the big V to Megatron during the battle at Tyger Pax in which the Autobots launch the AllSpark into space, is similar to live-action film continuity stories from IDW comics such as Movie Prequel #1 and Defiance #4.
