Unicron begins to awaken, threatening Cybertron and everything on it. The Autobots and Starscream recognize the threat, but Galvatron refuses to see it as anything but an Autobot trick to get the Decepticons to lower their defenses. When talking Galvatron into admitting the threat fails, Starscream sacrifices himself to unite the two warring factions.
But instead of death, Starscream is gifted with continued life in a new land with its own conflicts.
Shoutouts to Alchemo Arrow and Legion222 for proofreading and editing.
Shoutout to Fan-the-little-demon on DeviantArt for the astounding cover art.
Follows MLP canon up to S3E13 as closely as possible.
Follows Unicron Trilogy (only the cartoons themselves, so no comics) canon as closely as possible, with small interjections of headcanon and other made up things to fill in the plot holes and lack of backstory in the actual cartoon.
If you're going to dislike, at least have the courtesy to explain why.
