Everything is wrong.

[BEGINNING: CORE PROCESSOR START-UP SEQUENCE.]

[WARNING: LARGE SCALE DAMAGE SUSTAINED.

BEGINNING SELF DIAGNOSTIC.]

It was cold, and i don't know where i am.

[LISTING INITIAL DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS:]

[OPTICS: OFFLINE.]

[BUILT-IN PARTICLE FUSION CANNON: OFFLINE.]

[SYSTEMS: STABILISING SERVOS OFFLINE.]

My legs... I can't feel my legs...?

[ACCESSING PRIMARY PROCESSOR.]

[ACCESS GRANTED: DISTRIBUTING RELEVANT FILES.]

I'd... Crash landed from space apparently that's a normal thing to do.

I start going through my memories, letting the background process do its thing.

i was going...home after eating out.

But I'd also been in space activating an experimental transportation device around a space-time anomaly.

My name it...is...was something important, my files of recent events seem corrupted well isn't that bloody brilliant.

Although previous memory logs indicate two different names i could use for the moment.

Galvatron and Megatron.

The name held different meanings to the two (or more) corresponding set of memories.

In the first, both names are villains of a sort, the main antagonist, if you will.

In the second.....we'll. I'm Galvatron. Frag

I'm not particularly upset, just confused and angry, apparently.

But the memories are quite weird and confusing to sort through, not the human side it's the cybertronian side.

it's like going through a mish-mash of different emotions and memories of Megatron and Galvatron, while Megatrons's memories are clear and precise like a well olied machine.

Galvatron's is like a symphony of rage at everything and some

clarity.

The beginning of Galvatron's memories were clear after a major battle it shattered.

After a few moments, i went through it and had a clear picture of what happened.

Galvatron was alone on a throne of rust and molten scrap, his enemies dead, but his army gone the universe dead all life gone by his hand indirectly or not.

So he hatched a plan to go to a different universe and regain his army.

But things didn't go to plan while crossing universes he got bombarded with memories and information of himself, and then it went black.

I guess he crashed on.....Cybertron? i guess, but i must have taken the place of Galvatron's spark 'soul,' whatever.

So I'm on a dead world alone and injured.

Both sets of memories, cybertronian and human, agree.

I will not die.

____

It had taken time. Too much to be honest, but i had gotten my optics online.

With my vision returned, I'd managed to assess the situation my entire body is badly damaged i dragged myself to the nearest offlined cybertronian a vehicon with my sole remaining servo.

i had not thought twice before canibailzing the offlined mech's parts. Cheap models they may have been, they weren't as damaged as my own.

Besides, it wasn't like he was using them anymore.

So i repeated the process dragging myself from mech to mech. Salvaging what intact components remained from the rusted frames of a mass produced piles of junk.

I'd repaired my stabilising servos and gained the ability of movement after a few cycles of scavenging parts.

Taking my first couple of steps, no matter how weakly, it had been beautiful, the first happy memory i have had since coming here.

Now, to identify where i crashed, it looks disgusting but familiar, Kaon.

My home were i made my true name no longer d-16 the miner from Tarn but the name Megatron and forged the decepticons from the gladiatorial pits and rose up against the functionalist council those were the days when strength was all that mattered and the decepticon cause was just.

Now i walked the destroyed streets of my fallen empire, searching.

Assuming the large number of memories i have.

One of Shockwave's old labs is nearby...ah, i found it.

I couldn't help but laugh maniacally as I passed through the entrance.

____

My particle fussion cannon is back at 100% efficiency. Luckily, i found some leftover parts lying around.

To be honest, it was pure luck i found this laboratory and Megatrons's override command worked was a miracle.

Now time to access a terminal to figure out what universe I'm bloody in.

Oh well, that's not bad I'm in the tfp universe on cybertron after the main decepticons and autobots left behind.

There are some pockets of autobots and decepticons outposts left behind.....hmmmm if i can bring the decepticons to heel on cybertron that will give a a good starting position and maybe get shockwave on my side yes that's a plan allocate 10% processing power on working on how to implement it.

But for now, build a starting base of operations and survive.

Everything seemed to be going fine i activated the automated defence systems there, not at 100%, but good enough.

Which meant i had nothing to do. Aside from scavenging the surface for what little more energon i could find and parts to repair everything else. But first, the life-giving force of fuel that is running low at the moment.

As if to confirm my thoughts, my fuel tank sent me an alert.

[WARNING: ENERGON LEVELS RUNNING LOW]

Yes, i know, do not repeat, send all messages silently to me.

[UNDERSTOOD REROUTING ALL NEW MESSAGES THROUGH NEW PARAMETERS]

Good, now cybertronians didn't need to breathe, but i cycled some air in the approximation of breathing as an organic as it brings me comfort.

Time to work.

____

Did you know how it feels to transform it? It is a blessing, and no one can tell me otherwise unless they wish to meet the end of particle fusion cannon.

After getting confirmation from my inbuilt system, my t-cog is fully operational and that it won't rip in half.

While i was inspecting it, i was pleased to find that i was a triple changer how stupid was old me not to check or maybe he did he was a mad bastard.

I transformed into my alt mode a tank it was great. It was like...you had been standing for all you're life and just sat down for the first time ever.

That's a weird analogy, but it fits. Anyway i felt quite happy just driving around the various destroyed roads and collapsed buildings.

But sad somewhat my Megatron side of my memories is bringing up of what cybertron looked like in the past it hardens my resolve to fix cybertron and stop this war no matter the cost.

Moving on I've made sure to stop occasionally and collect energon from either semi-intacted bodies.

You know, draining a corpse of energon is a somewhat difficult process.

First i needed to find a corpse and that's the easy part Kaon is littered in corpses of cybertronians.

Second part of the process was finding clean energon that's not stale or infected.

And of course i had to keep my eye on scraplets they are quite fascinating and horrific they way they devoured a dead mech all the way through the armour to the base component's and then that two.

I slowly made my way away from it as they devoured more dead bots i swear to eventually exterminate them all when i have the manpower.

Okay back to the topic of draining energon this particular bot seemed to be a brute one of Shockwave's experiments during the war it would've been a sight to see in person but now it's not pretty or aesthetically pleasing anymore.

Maybe later, i may have an army befitting that of an emperor.

Nonetheless it's energon tank had not ruptured or been infected by any biological weapons of mass destruction or eaten by those disgusting scraplets.

Which meant for me it was mine.

The only resistance was a shriek of metal as my servo tore through the heavy duty armour it took a few nano-clicks but i finally found the tank and ripped it out.

"Thanks mate for your generous donation to your lord."

i put the stolen energon in my subspace, then transformed and took off.

It wouldn't be wise to stick around in the open too long, honestly im surprised nobody noticed me but if i do ever come back i would be surprised if the corpse was gone by the time if i ever came back.

Now the decently sized portion of energon rested in my subspace.

Subspace it was really convenient it's like hammerspace but limited in how much it could store, i could carry a large amount of anything in it before it closed down due to storage space will probably expand that later.

[DECEPTICON TRANSMISSION NEARBY.]

[SOURCE IDENTIFICATION IS SHOCKWAVE]

[ACCEPT COMMUNICATION Y/N]

Oh that's surprising "yes system establish communications"

[ESTABLISHING COMMUNICATIONS]

[SHOCKWAVE:IDENTITY YOURSELF]

[GALVATRON:DO NOT TELL ME YOU DO NOT RECOGNISE YOUR LORD AND MASTER SHOCKWAVE]

[SHOCKWAVE:LORD MEGATRON IS THAT YOU]

[GALVATRON:IN A WAY SHOCKWAVE RELAY YOUR LOCATION TO ME SO WE MAY MEET IN PERSON]

[SHOCKWAVE:AS YOU WISH MY LORD I AWAIT YOUR ARRIVAL]

[COMMUNICATION:CUT OFF]

Well, that was surprising, that went pretty well.

I will fly back to base and repair the rest of my systems before going to Shockwave.

I felt giddy at meeting one of my favourite decepticons ever.

I just got an alert to refuel the energon tank

Fine. Refuelling first.

Time to go back to base

____

"Never gonna give you up

Never gonna let you down

Never gonna run around and desert you

Never gonna make you cry

Never gonna say goodbye."

"hahaha fuck you God, Primus,Rob,Unicorn you got rick rolled you sucker ha."

"I need company im so bored."

I glanced around my makeshift laboratory while dissecting a dead cybertronian and im also trying to salvage it's spark chamber for a pet project.

____

Deca-Cycle later (10 days)

It had been 10 days since i since my rebirth or activation most of it spent fortifying my base, scavenging for equipment, energon, and generally doing whatever piqued my fancy.

In my spare time, i spent on my new decepticon army it's only a prototype at the moment it is going to replace the vehicon troopers as the main battle force of the new decepticon army if it goes to plan.

The chassis of my new creation is beautiful. In my opinion, i took inspiration from the frame of a Zaku and a mix of the gundam heavy arms custom,gpb-06f super custom.

(I will post pictures of the gundams i mentioned in the comments)

Imagine the frame of the GPB-06F but the launchers on the waist and shoulders and in the body and come out when in battle otherwise perfectly incognito, the battle mask will kinda look like Tarns from the DJD because it looks badass but it won't be all the same for the other's the variations will look different it's just it's the first time in all my life including my memories that i had built something, a living being for the first time in all my lives.

I have chiped my own spark to give life to my creation normally this would be fatal but due my Megatron and Galvatron sides were both created by Primus and Unicron respectively and my human soul gave my spark unique properties its stronger than a normal cybertronian and that of a prime when they receive the matrix of leadership my spark is roughly 5x times stronger than before so only a slight amount of pain but negligible.

While my creation is in a gestation tank i found in the laboratory.

Now it's finally time to meet Shockwave and gain his allegiance.

____

1 Solar-Cycle later (1 day)

I'm on the outskirts of Shockwave's location

"System establish communications with Shockwave"

[ESTABLISHING COMMUNICATIONS]

[GALVATRON:SHOCKWAVE SEND ME YOUR LOCATION NOW]

[SHOCKWAVE:YES MY LIEGE]

[LOCATION IDENTIFIED 20 MILES NORTH OF CURRENT LOCATION]

[GALVATRON:I WILL BE AT YOUR LOCATION IN 20 KLIKS MEET ME OUTSIDE YOUR BASE]

[SHOCKWAVE:AFFIRMATIVE]

[COMMUNICATIONS CUT]

Driving to Shockwave's location, i wonder how difficult it will be to make Shockwave join my side of the coup/splinter group of the decepticons.

if i remember correctly, he only joined for the freedom of unrestricted experimentation.

I could offer him future technology like synthetic energon and the location of the omega lock and my own scientific experiments that could work.

Let's hope it goes to plan i would hate to destroy an important asset to my plans.

____

I see Shockwave in the distance, and he also sees me to.

Shockwave: "You are not Lord Megatron identify yourself now or meet your end."

I see Shockwave priming his astro cannon ready for any response to his query that is not well received.

Galvatron: "All will be explained in a moment first overlook these files first."

[FILES SENT]

Shockwave: "This is illogical."

I see his shock no pun intended at the files of this universes future without my interference, the illogical decisions of the Decepticons, and that of Megatrons's.

Also, Megatrons's addiction to dark energon and how it impacted his mind how he nearly reactivated Unicron the chaos bringer twice instead of blowing up the planet or leaving it to Optimus and the humans.

Shockwave: "How can you know this who are you?"

Shockwave has disarmed his astro cannon and is looking at me inquisitively as much as he can with one optic

Galvatron: "I come from the future without my intervention this universe will cease to exist i was once Megatron, but evolved to become Galvatron."

I can see from Shockwave's body language that he is contemplating something.

My hopes are answered when Shockwave gets to his knees and kneels.

Shockwave: "I pledge myself to you, Lord Galvatron."

I smirk evily a trait i got from Megatron

Galvatron: "Good Shockwave i expected nothing less from my chief scientific officer."

As Shockwave is rising, i realise that my path to victory has never been clearer.

And with Shockwave on my side, my endeavours with my new class of decepticon will be even easier.

Galvatron: "Shockwave overlook these files for a new decepticon class."

Shockwave: "Yes, my Lord."

____

Orbital Cycle Later (1 month)

Everything went surprisingly well with Shockwave after reviewing everything and a couple of questions as we walked back to his laboratory.

I sent him the location of my base of operations, and i helped him acquire the fossilised remains of a Predacon who i imagine will be come Predaking.

We also exchanged information on upgrades we have in mind for ourselves.

I enquired to Shockwave about if it's possible to move his equipment to my base so i may show him what I'm working on.

It took us a couple of mega-cycles ( a couple of hours) to pack up and move it to my base and to set it all up.

We also got to work on repairing Shockwave to 100% efficiency, and Shockwave also checked me for any problems, which there were a couple but nothing extensive.

Shockwave looked over my prototype creation 00-01 nickname Zero and made a few adjustments to its spark and frame.

Shockwave also made a few drones powered by electricity and solar energy to go out and scavenge energon from any sources and also bring anything of use like equipment, files, and general locations for interest.

Now i know you're curious about the drones.

Well, they are corpses of cybertronians stripped of anything useful and generally used for any menial tasks they have no real sentience and are programmed by Shockwave to do jobs assigned by both of us.

It's a good thing they are judging by the increased number of scraplets we had for awhile they tracked us all the way from Shockwave's old laboratory to Kaon.

But soon decreased due to the drones destroying them with their kinetic weapons and melee.

Due to the drones not having energon, the scraplets could not identify them, so they never reacted to the assault and were all wiped out good riddance i say.

Moving on, Project Predacon and Project PBM that stands for Prime Battle Machine, it's going well, Prototype zero as I called it until i figure out a name for it.

It was going to be ready in a Stellar-Cycle (1 year), but with the increased amount of resources, it has decreased to 6 Orbital-Cycles, and Project Predacon is going to be completed in roughly a Stellar-Cycle.

Moving on, our base of operations has gotten bigger and is literally a virtual fortress.

Any conceivable blind spot is covered, but still, just in case anyone manages to break in the emergency defense, drones will activate and intercept any enemy forces and keep them occupied while we get ready for a confrontation with the enemy it's ready for any conceivable threat for example any decepticon or autobot or any other cybertronians or literally anything.

The turrets are a mix of laser based and kinetic weapons, including missiles, railguns, and literally anything that might be useful to me and Shockwave.

The defence is being continuously upgraded by both of us.

Honestly, i believe Shockwave is having fun with this, i can't tell due to basically having one-eye, but i just know.

____

5 Solar-Cycles later

Honestly, these past few days have been fine.

Shockwave has finally left the gestating Predacon alone and is spending his time on the Prototype PBM and the synthetic energon formula i have it's roughly at Ratchet's version in the show.

I figure it's time to meet the Decepticon outpost on Cybertron.

Now, time to convince Shockwave to accompany me to meet them so they don't shoot on sight.

I walk into Shockwave's side of the Laboratory and see him working at a terminal.

Galvatron: "Shockwave, are you available to come with me to meet the current decepticon base on cybertron so that we may gain additional manpower."

Shockwave looks up from the terminal and digests the question.

Shockwave: "My liege all current projects can be automated for a small amount of time for me to accompany you to the main Decepticon base on Cybertron."

I smile evily good, it's so nice to have a loyal compent mech.

Galvatron: "Good Shockwave, your efforts have not gone unnoticed and will be rewarded soon, now let us go i have an army to regain once more."

Shockwave: "Yes, my lord."

____

As we approached the Decepticon Outpost, we forwarded our identification codes, and we were blinded by a bright light that scanned us for any autobot technology.

The automated gates opened, and we were greeted by a contingent of decepticon soldiers armed to the teeth they exchanged wary glances between each other.

Good they recognise Shockwave and fear me time to gain an army.

The tension hung in the air, a stark reminder of the uncertainty that had gripped cybertron since the fall.

Time to start my speech

Galvatron: "Fellow Decepticons i stand before you, not as a conquer but as you're saviour you were abandoned by your supposed leader who promised you freedom from the caste system from the restrictions of the council but has he done it i say NO! he has only continued the class system but transformed it's name look around at the vehicon's aren't they full cybertronians haven't they risked there life on the battlefield and where they rewarded no haven't we all experienced that with are autobot slave master's as they demeaned us treated us as nothing but dirt beneath their metal heel."

I paused to gauge their reactions there's anger and resentment, not at me, but at Megatron at everything their situation how they were abandoned by there leader who promised them so much but failed to deliver and brought them into a war that lasted a millennia how there home cybertron is dead how there scavenging for scraps barley able to survive.

Now time to win them over

Galvatron:" You have been deceived by Megatron and the decepticon cause as it is right now, we used to be a just and righteous cause as we rose up against the functionalist council and the corrupt primes of the past but we turned against are ideals haven't we won but at cost, what does it mean when the current prime and his loyal servants embody the very ideals and tenets of are once righteous crusade join me my brethren to once again rise up and be lifted to a new age of prosperity and freedom for a new age of cybertronian supermancy.

A vehicon soldier asks

"What's his Name?"

Shockwave: "Galvatron."

Every single decepticon shouts my name in admiration and awe also loyalty.

"ALL HAIL GALVATRON"

"ALL HAIL GALVATRON"

"ALL HAIL GALVATRON"

"ALL HAIL GALVATRON"

"ALL HAIL GALVATRON"

I smile evily blind obedience check all is going to plan.
