Armada

When the Decepticon turncoat Starscream joined the ranks of the Autobots, Alexis took a shine to him. However, Starscream dismissed her, and the other human children as he was only concerned with defeating Megatron. Despite this, the kids asked Starscream to bring them back a souvenier when the former Decepticon and Jetfire travelled to Mars in search of a Mini-Con panel. In spite of his rude, lone-wolf demeanor, Starscream brought back a mysterious green rock for the kids, thus earning him a place in their hearts, in particular Alexis.

Much later, she revealed to Starscream that she had fashioned an amulet (that was somehow tied to his very spark) out of the rock he had procured for her. When Starscream was destroyed by Unicron, her amulet cracked symbolically, alerting her to the fact something was very wrong.

Alexis was hit hardest when Optimus Prime reported Starscream's noble death. At the time, she didn't understand why he did what he did, and sought comfort with Rad. However, when the Autobots and Decepticons forged their new alliance, she was comforted by the fact that Starscream's sacrifice did not go in vain, and felt that he would have loved to see the day the three Transformers factions joined together.

Energon

Ten years later, Alexis recovered from her loss and was now working as a diplomat on behalf of the Earth Federation, usually as a liason between the nations of Earth and the Cybertronian Autobot-Decepticon alliance. Because of her position, she is frequently in contact with Dr. Jones' family, with the good doctor himself taking a somewhat disturbing interest in her.

While Alexis now represents the interests of Earth, she still has faith in Optimus Prime and trusts his decisions in the Energon war, just as she trusted him during in the Unicron Battles.

Trivia

• According to the now-defunct TV Tokyo Micron Legend website, Alexis was 11 years old at the start of Armada. The page also stated she was Asian, and that her Japanese name, Alexa, was short for Alexandra.
