Reborn as Sam: A Transformers fanfic

Megatron nursed his aching helm, "Curse that human. Curse this planet. Curse everything!"

Soundwave, "Lord Megatron, Laserbeak following the Autobots."

Megatron, "Good!"

The Fallen entered, "I saw everything."

Megatron, "Master."

The Fallen, "Strange, I do not feel the presence of the Allspark despite the fact half or rather most of it is inside you. Although perhaps the fact that you returned is proof you have it."

Megatron froze, "You were not expecting for the shard to work."

The Fallen was poking Megatron's frame, "No, unfortunately not. My dear Skywind is truly lost to us."

Megatron was quite, 'That human, he knows something.'

The Fallen, "My youngling student, what are you thinking?"

Megatron, "Witwicky, he knows everything."

The Fallen snarled, "Of course he does. The Allspark for some Unicron damn reason favours him over everyone else."

Starscream, "My Lords if I may. It could be possible the Allspark was curious about the human race. So, they decided to speak to the human sparkling."

Shockwave, "Not illogical, I have been curious about them too."

The Fallen, "Well, the Allspark would not be the first to fall for a human. I remember my foolish brothers adoring them too. Filthy, disgusting organics."

Megatron looked at his teacher with a contemplative gaze, 'Or we can use them.'

Soundwave, "Laserbeak incoming signal."

Starscream watched the screen, "You were not joking. The Allspark, it really is the Allspark using the human as a host."

Megatron gritted his denta, "Follow them! Do not lose sight."

Soundwave relayed the message to his cassette who followed Bumblebee who was now taking Sam out of the base. At that point they noticed the Allspark had used it's own holomatter to look like someone else completely and they were able to leave the base despite Optimus's warnings. This for some reason greatly amused Megatron who had to suppress his smirk from showing in front of everyone. He knew he made a fine choice on picking his personal pet, the fact he can talk to the Allspark just makes it a bonus for him. They were now out in the City heading towards what looked like a museum where humans stored old trinkets.

Fallen hissed, "My Seeker! So, that is where you have been hiding all this time."

Starscream, "He looks rusted."

Shockwave eyed what the Allspark did to Jetfire, "Lord Megatron, permission to study the human."

Megatron, "Very well. Just do not offline him. I have a strange feeling the Allspark will let us die off if we let his host die."

Skywarp, "Favouritism is strong in this one."

Megatrom watched in contemplation as the two Cybertronians and Witwicky warped away, "Track their signal."

Starscream, 'To be more specific, Jetfire's signal.'

Skywarp, "Aww! I thought I was the only one who could wrap around here."

Starscream drawled, "Great, you can be friends."

Allspark hummed as he checked the temple, "I can feel it. It is here."

Jetfire, "Buried under you mean."

Allspark, "Yes, correct. Ah! Here it is."

Bumblebee, "What do you me.... "

Allspark grinned as the wall moved out of the way, "Old temples have hidden levers. We just need to find them."

Bumblebee, "Is that? A tomb?"

Allspark hummed, "The tomb of the Primes, magni isnt it? Ah! There you are, yes, yes, I hear you."

Matrix, -You found a new host. About time if you ask me.-

Allspark, "Mmm... He is lovely and a little bit too accepting of my sparklings. I worry about him."

Matrix hummed, -Interesting.-

Allspark, "Hey! What gives?"

Bumblebee, "Is everything okay?"

Allspark blinked at the yellow bot, "Yeah, everything is fine. Do not worry too much about it. Matrix what gives?"

Matrix, -I am curious. You always pick hosts that are quirky. I want to know how this one's ticks.-

Allspark sighed, "Of course you do."

Bumblebee, "Allspark the others are coming this way. Is that the...?"

Allspark, "The one and only Matrix yes."

Matrix, -He is one of your priest, isn't he? How old is he? He does not have an armor like the others.-

Allspark, "You make a good point. He may be young but he has proven himself to be very capable and responsible."

Jetfire, "Oh ho ~"

Bumblebee, "What are you talking about?"

Allspark looked around then grinned, "All the things I need is here. Come here my Spark Sensitive."

Bumblebee, "What are you planning now, Allspark? Please, do not stress Sam's body, Ratchet will turn me into a toaster."

Allspark chuckled, "Nothing stressful I promise you. I am using one of my less straining abilities."

The yellow Scout tilted his helm in curiosity and stared when the Allspark raised Sam's hand and the armor on the dead Prime's started to shake. Bumblebee wanted to back off from whatever was happening but he did not want to leave Sam with the Allspark that he is starting to realize is a little unhinged perhaps. He watched with wary optics as the armor floated around him with sigils that were molding it and then started to attach themselves on to him. Bumblebee was very alarmed but the Allspark was humming as they went through Sam's memories about the different versions of Bumblebee and to be honest he loved one of the Knight fanart versions a lot. If his Spark Sensitive was a Knight he would be on the same playing field as a Prime and a High Lord, not to forget he already checked out the main qualities of being a Knight.

Bumblebee, 'What a scary smile.... '

Jetfire, "Oh! Oh! Congratulations on the promotion, little Spark Sensitive."

Bumblebee, "Promotion? What do you mean by that?"

Allspark, "You are more than just a Spark Sensitive now, my darling Knight."

Bumblebee froze, "A Knight? Like a Knight of Cybertron type of Knight?"

Matrix, -Tell him he is not just any Knight but one who is now responsible for you, Sparky.-

Allspark, "Well, you are my Knight to be honest. I chose you to be mine."

Bumblebee, "I see though I do not know what to say about this. I am very happy I have more say over Sam's safety though."

Allspark laughed, "More than that my dear Knight. You are on the same level of authority as a Prime and a High Lord. So, you are now completely in charge of my dear host's safety."

Bumblebee, "That is useful. But I will need a lot of training. I see new programs especially battle, attack and defence programs."

Allspark, "Of course, take your time."

Jetfire, "There are two groups here. One on the East and another on the West."

Allspark, "Well then, dear Matrix, looks like the Primes and High Lord are here. Who will you choose?"

Matrix, -We will see.-

Allspark hummed as they walked out, "Time to go."

Jetfire, "Where to Allspark? I will take you there."

Allspark, "Not far. Just to the neighborhood. Come on."

Bumblebee moved then stumbled, "This might take time."

Allspark, "Which is why we are walking. It will help you adjust faster to the changes."

Bumblebee got up nodding, "I appreciate it, thank you."

Allspark smiled, "Shall we try again?"

Bumblebee, "Of course, but first here. It has been hours, and you promised to take care of Sam's body."

Allspark, "Right, humans need to eat and hydrate. I must admit I am very fascinated by the food they eat. So many textures and tastes, so fascinating."

Jetfire, "Is it possible for us to try it too using our holomatter that is?"

Allspark, "You could. I mean I created you as robots in disguise for a reason. That does include mimicking organic habits."

Bumblebee was moving slowly, "That I didn't know. Ratchet will have a field day with this information."

Ratchet, -Do not even think about it.-

Bumblebee cringed, "Ratchet?"

Optimus, -You forgot to close your comm, Bumblebee. We heard everything.-

Bumblebee, "Ah! So.. Uh.. I got promoted?"

Optimus sounded amused, -Indeed, I welcome you to the ranks Bumblebee.-

Jazz, -We are proud of you, youngling.-

Allspark hummed as they climbed up to the top and sat down humming, "I'm alone here on my island, floating in the sky ~"

Jetfire, "Hmm.. I do not think I recognize that song."

Bumblebee, "Neither do I... "

Allspark, "Hiding in the blue, safe between the clouds ~"

Jetfire, "They are here."

Bumblebee stood tall, "Optimus, Megatron and Megatronus."

Fallen, "I have not been called that name in a long time."

Optimus, "Fallen, Megatron."

Megatron, "Prime, Allspark."

Optimus, "How is Sam?"

Bumblebee, "Asleep at the moment. So the Allspark is in charge now... The Matrix have something to say too."

Fallen, "Matrix."

Allspark was holding the Matrix that was floating around Sam's person despite the fact it should not be possible. The Matrix hummed as it floated around poking and prodded the only human in the group much to Bumblebee's chagrin. Jetfire just hummed ignoring the glaring Megatronus who was pinging him to stand by him but the old seeker was just done with his Prime now ex - Prime. The Matrix then started to hum and vibrate more getting everyone's attention while the rest of the Cybertronians stayed back. The Allspark however called for Elita One to join them, the femme looked a little unsure however.

Allspark, "My darling femmeling, I have watched your actions and hard work, trying to help my children who were located on the outskirts of the main cities. You are worthy of taking part in the test for becoming a holder of the Matrix just like anyone else here. The same thing goes to you, young Megatron."

Optimus grinned, "Come join us, my old friend."

Elita One stood straight, "I will do my best, even if I do not get the Matrix I will still keep doing my best for my people and those who depend on me."

Allspark, "He he he he! That's my sparkling."

Megatron, "You may be unsure but I am confident. Sam will be mine as well after I get the Matrix."

Optimus, "Megatron! The Allspark is not an object to be won."

Elita One, "Do not insult the Allspark or Samuel for that matter. Honestly, he was too kind in forgiving you already."

Fallen, "Interesting child. Megatron you may keep him as a pet after all."

Elita fumed, "Optimus, you leave the older one to me."

Optimus, "Double team?"

Elita, "Yeah!"

Allspark, "Well then, let the trial by combat begin. The prize is the Matrix and I suppose my host and I."

Bumblebee grouched, "You do not have to grin so happily while sayin that."

Jetfire felt for the young Knight, he did truly, but he also could not help the amusement he felt at the situation. A very pissed off ex - Prime to the side, a Prime chosen by the Allspark and two young prospects for the title of Prime. He had not seen this much drama since Solus and Megatronus, speaking of which, he wonders if the two got together after all. Jetfire looked at his Prime and decided they probably had not gotten together especially with how different their priorities were. Solus adored organic beings especially their penchant for imagination and creativity to the point they sometimes claimed the organics as their own sparkling.

This made Megatronus very jealous and caused many a quarrel between them, despite Solus's assurance of Megatronus being important to them. Jetfire then moved seeing as the Allspark was moving to the old battlefield the Primes had previously fought each other at. Young Elita, Jetfire noticed, looked very nervous but determined to help the young Prime against his ex - Prime and student. Turns out said student is the young Prime's older twin, the family drama never ends when it comes to the Prime lineage. Jetfire absent mindedly wished he had some rust sticks to snack on as the two sides started to battle each other for the right to the Matrix and the Allspark.

Elita, "What's the plan?"

Optimus, "We go all out. I hate to say it but the risks are too high. We will lose too much we get defeated."

Elita, "True. It will be a disaster if we lose Sam to them. I do not like how Megatron keeps looking at him."

Optimus looked at his brother, "Oh no! I know that look. He has plans. I do not know what but it will not be good for Sam."

Elita One startled at that, "What do you mean?"

Optimus, "Megatron, despite our clashing personalities agreed with me on one thing, the safety of Allspark came first. He is no doubt planning on locking Sam away from everyone and everything which would not just anger Sam but also the Allspark."

Elita was confused, "Sam getting angry I can understand but wasn't the Allspark using Sam as well?"

Optimus, "I have heard stories about the Allspark before. Stories I thought were mere tales for younglings. I fear that may not be so."

Elita One, "You will have to explain it in detail later for now let's focus on the fight."

Optimus murmured, "I am just relieved the humans are staying out of this."

Elita One, "Almost every human except for Sam who is the Allspark's host and not exactly conscious at the moment."

Optimus grumbled under his denta, "This is not exactly the most feasible scenario."

Allspark, "Alright then contestants the battle is going to start in three, two, one. Begin!"

Optimus and Elita moved in sync as they tackled Megatrom and the Fallen who were attacking them as well. Elita was taking on the Fallen as it would help cover three things in one go for her. First, she would personally be able to get pay back at the ex Prime for trying to hurt one of her own, she lost one too many friends and family over the years to let such actions slide. Second, the Allspark mentioned he was older so if she fought him she would fulfill the oldest acceptance ritual, where a warrior had to defeat an Elder to take their place. Third if she won she would become a Prime herself and she would never have to worry about other Cybertronians in power undermining her decisions ever again.

Elita blocked a punch from her opponent who glared, 'I am not loosing another friend or soldier because of someone else's ego ever again. I swear Redflame I will protect our people no matter what happens this time.'

Fallen, "You are motivated and focused but it is not enough little femmeling."

Elita grunted as she was kicked, "Frag!"

Fallen, "Language! Now, let me show you how powerful Prime's truly are, sparkling."

Elita growled, "DO NOT PATRONIZE ME!"

Fallen, "Oh ho! What an adorable glare, show me what you got, little sparkling."

Elita snarled as she stood up and activated her blasters and started shooting the ex - Prime who was just as condescending as Sentinel Prime. Optimus was in the mean time fighting his brother again who was more angry than he had previously remembered but perhaps that's how it is when you return from the dead. Either way Optimus refused to lose to him and fought without holding back his strength making Megatron grunted from the hits. Megatron snarled at Optimus about how they could return to Cybertron with the little host and once they did Sam would be forced to create an army for him to use and conquer Earth.

Optimus was furious but kept his calm as he punched Megatron, "And where did you get that idea from? One of the sparkling's mangas? Honestly brother, I expected better."

Megatron growled as he stumbled but stayed standing shooting his gun back at Optimus, "At least I plan on returning to Cybertron. You on the other hand still refuse to return home despite the fact we can."

Optimus dodged it and returned fire at Megatron, "Cybertron is not habitable and if we return now the Allspark will refuse to create any new sparklings. Our home is not fit to raise new sparklings yet, you know that better than anyone else. You and I, our war destroyed our home."

Megatron retorted transforming and shooting at Optimus, "It can be rebuilt. Our homes can always be rebuilt."

Optimus ran as he shot back, "It would not be habitable for Sam."

Megatron tackled him, "And why would that matter? He is a mere host nothing more nothing less."

Optimus, "The Allspark made their claims on Samuel very clear, if anything happened to him they would disappear and will not be seen again."

Megatron paused his fighting for a second at that, "YOU LIE! Do not lie to me brother! I will rip your denta off."

Optimus glared at him angry, "Do you really believe I would lie about such an important matter. You know me better than that and if I were really lying you would have shot me by now."

Megatron, "Enough chatter! Time to end this."

Optimus was about to answer when he was rammed from the side, "Ugh!"

Elita grunted getting up, "Sorry Optimus."

Optimus, "As Sam once said, I am alive. You good?"

Elita was covered in bruises, "He is just playing with me but I have a plan."

Optimus nodded getting up, "I trust you old friend. Be careful though, Sam would be upset if you were hurt too badly."

Elita smiled, "It will take more than this to take this old lady down."

Optimus nodded as they got ready to fight again and started battling with more vigour, though Megatron and the Fallen were no slouches either. Bumblebee was watching the whole fight while running diagnostics and programs to get used to his new frame in case he had to join. Ratchet made his way towards them in an angry huff and demanded to see Sam though the Allspark was watching him amused. Ironhide and Chromia were flanking Ratchet's sides as his support as the medic demanded to see Sam though the couple looked torn between joining their leaders and protecting Ratchet and Sam.

Allspark, "Sam is asleep and will wake up tomorrow morning which is in a few hours."

Ratchet, "So you can take over his body when he is asleep."

Allspark, "I try not to, humans are not meant for powers like mine even though they make very welcoming hosts."

Bumblebee grouched, "You have been active for ten hours now."

Allspark, "It is a necessity as we are invoking a very old ritual to become Prime. The test of the Matrix, where you must defeat the previous holder to warn the title. I wish to never hurt my host but till this ritual ends I must stay."

Ironhide, "Okay that's it."

Chromia, "We are going to help."

Allspark, "No, if you interfere then your side will lose."

Chromia clenched her servos into fists, "So, that's why the Decepticons are watching without interfering."

Ironhide, "Small mercies."

Allspark, "Although it does not prevent others from making challenges. You just have to make sure your fight does not interrupt the ritual."

Ironhide stared then grinned, "Now, you are talking."

Chromia, "What are we waiting for? Let's deal with those clowns. I have no doubt they will try to jump Elita and Optimus the moment this is over."

Sideswipe, "We cannot let that happen."

Starscream, "Autobots you dare interfere."

Ironhide, "No, but we challenge you to a battle."

Sideswipe, "You are going down."

Chromia, "Enough talk."

Steeljaw, "Challenge accepted bitch!"

Dreadwing, "You will regret challenging us."

Skyquake, "You are going to lose."

Bumblebee glared at the Allspark, "You did that intentionally."

Allspark, "Hmm? I did not do anything, I just pointed out some laws and rules. I only have authority over the creation of new sparks, what you do with your life is your choice."

Ratchet gave a long suffering sigh, "Please drink this. It is a special energy drink. It should help Sam recover his strength."

Allspark, "Thank you dear healer. You have grown to become a very reliable adult, I am very proud of you."

Ratchet became flustered, "I... Thank you but I am still keeping an eye on you. Primus knows how your presence affects Sam. He is a human child, not even a full grown up."

Allspark murmured, "Sometimes I wonder about that part."

Bumblebee, "What?"

Allspark, "Don't mind me, just musing over some thoughts."

Bumblebee narrowed his optics, "Is that so?"

Jetfire decided to calm him, "Fret not, my new Knight brother. I am sure the Allspark knows what they are doing."

Allspark, "Indeed, besides I have not had a proper host in many a millennium. I am not loosing Sam so easily. It actually would be counter productive if anything happened to him."

Meanwhile the battle between Megatron, Fallen, Optimus and Elita was getting more intense with the Fallen not holding back his powers anymore. Elita though being stubborn refused to give in and fought back just as hard while Optimus and Megatron were engaged in hand to hand combat. The siblings had been raised to fight and protect the moment they left their sparkling frames though it became apparent Optimus was more inclined to research while Megatron embraced his fighter side. That did not make Optimus a push over though in fact he was just as dangerous as Megatron. The Prime studied and many times applied what he studied to his battle, with fifty fifty results most of the time.

Elita then pressed a switch, "You are going down."

Fallen growled as his left shoulder plate blew up, "You little scraplet."

Elita had a hard look in her optics, "I will protect my family, my friends and soldiers no matter what."

Fallen held his broken arm, "You will pay for this little scraplet."

Elita, "Do your worst."

The Matrix started to hum and the Allspark smiled though it was Sam smiling but it made Ratchet watch a little warily. He then strictly told Allspark to not do anything with Sam's body and the Allspark assured him they would stay put. The Matrix though pulsed sending a wave of energy through the battle field making everyone pause for a moment and look at where the Matrix was glowing and pulsing. Elita One stood up feeling very invigorated while Megatron looked more confident, something that both Optimus and Fallen noticed.

Fallen, "Time to end this."

Optimus, "Indeed this ends now!"

The final round started and Elita clashed with Fallen just as Megatron and Optimus shot at each other. The Matrix glowed and another wave went out this time towards the four fighters who froze in place. When the light died down, Megatron and Elita One were standing with new markings on their armor that signified their new position as Primes. Everyone stared at the two shocked, a lot of them had expected the Matrix to choose one Prime not two. The Allspark started to laugh like crazy as they started to congratulate them on becoming official Primes.

Megatron, "We still have to decide who wins them in the end."

Allspark, "Indeed, best of luck."

Optimus, 'Note to self: The Allspark likes battles. Keep Sam from getting involved in fights.'

Elita, "Remember that chess game?"

Optimus smirked, "Yes, switch now."

Elita and Optimus switched and Optimus attacked Fallen while Megatron had to deal with a very pissed off and stronger femme turned Prime. The Decepticon now turned Prime fought back while the Fallen taunted Prime telling him about the things he would do to the planet. If the Fallen was trying to anger Optimus, he was doing a good job at angering him. Optimus took out the new blaster that Wheeljack had made a short prayer hoping it did not back fire on him and aimed at the Fallen. The Fallen then attacked Optimus just as he shot the blaster blowing his lower half off making Megatron snarl at the result.

Megatron, "Teacher, no."

Fallen, "Urk!"

Megatron transformed grabbing the Fallen, "This is not over, my dear siblings."

Starscream, "Lord Megatron, our men."

Megatron surveyed the area, 'Very clever Prime, very clever. Sending your men to take out mine behind my back.'

Soundwave, "Casualties high: Next orders Lord Megatron."

Megatron, "Retreat!"

Elita, "They are getting away."

Optimus, "We will get them next time. You need medical attention first and I need to check on Samuel."

Elita wanted to protest but then the pain from the bruises and previous beating made itself known making her wince. Optimus called for Ratchet to help fix them while Sam or rather the Allspark hummed as he moved to the largest pyramid and entered it much to Bumblebee's protests. Jazz and Prowl arrived next to Bumblebee after making sure the area was secure now that the rest of the Decepticons were gone. Sam appeared after a while yawning and holding a machine along side the Matrix and Bumblebee gently picked him up. The fight had actually lasted for more than twenty four hours with both sides being too stubborn to just give in.

Sam, "Hey Bee. Looking good as a Knight big guy."

Bumblebee, "I wish it was not at your expense though."

Sam, "I am alright. I actually got a nice long rest and feel much better. Hey Jazz, Prowl."

Jazz, "You are grounded."

Sam opened his mouth to protest then shrugged instead, "Fair enough."

Prowl sighed picking him up, "Honestly I do not know who is more troublesome the twins or the Allspark. You broke so many rules both Cybertronian, human and base, I do not know where to begin."

Sam, "I blame the Allspark. Now, take me to Elita and Optimus. The Matrix is getting antsy."

Bumblebee, "Fine but it better not fly off with you."

Sam laughed, "I am pretty sure they will be too busy to do that."
