“Well that’s not really how they work… just follow me.”
Maximus walked into the hallway. Though it was longer than the one in the ship. It seemed to go on forever. He stopped at a door labeled “Memories” and opened it. He stepped though into what looked like a white void.
“So what else have you been up to?”
She was scared to walk in the void, so she just flied next to him.
“Well… A lot happened. I exit fro. The team… I rejoyned it… Galvatron…”
“Don’t be scared. This is just where I visualize memories. What would you like to see first? Oh, I know. How about I take you to the day this all began.”
“Well I was kinda there for all of that… Ugh, I’ve never been good with small talk.”
“Yeah, why not?”
“I am not that good neither. Sit.”
They suddenly found themselves in the Axalon’s control room again. There was a bot sitting at the center console.
She sat down next to him.
“Who is he?”
“But I know another song.”
“That my dear Song, is me.”
Arcee smiled as she listened.
“Ah yes! Gronius told me that you looked different!”
He eventually stopped.
“Before everything. Before Unicron, before Primes, before destiny, I was but a humble explorer.”
“Axis… how long has it been since we’ve found something?”
Said the Maximus at the console. (M)
“About eight earth months.”
-Axis
“Of course… Hey, what’s that thing up ahead?”
-M
“That was nice…”
-Arcee
Direwolf began to walk towards the ship’s exit.
“Where are you going?”
-Sadie
“Somewhere I can’t hurt anyone else.”
Axis woke up and walked out of the room. She walked up to Dire.
“Hey. Something wrong?”
“But then, in a single moment, everything came crashing down.”
Maximus calmly stood as the ship violently shook and shuttered for a few moments.
“What was that?”
-M
"Instruments offline, shields offline, engines offline-
-Axis
“Well what’s online!”
-M
“Uh… I’m still here.”
-Axis
“Can you get anything back online?”
-M
“No can do. Brace for impact!”
-Axis
“You’re welcome.”
-Arcee
She looked at M.
“Here. Your turn.”
Maximus stood as alarms blared and red lights flashed. He waved his hand, and they where back in the white void.
“Me? No. I don’t sing.”
-Arcee
“Wow. What’s next?”
“Come on! You can do it!”
“I’d… I’d rather not. Besides, you should probably be going.”
He sounded a little upset.
“No. Really. I don’t want to.”
“Please. I really don’t want to continue. Besides, There’s no use in looking to the past. We must look ahead to accomplish our goals.”
“I don’t want to alright.”
