James POV
I woke to the sound of blasters, shouts of insults, and the rumbling of battle, groaning as I got up from the table I was on, I walked to the nearest window, and looked to see a full blown assault from Celestia's army, scrap, 'Where did that army come from?' I thought in surprise, 'They weren't with Celestia before.' the doors to the room I was in opened, it was Sari,
"James! You're awake!" she ran to me and hugged my leg, tears rolling down her face, "When you passed out I thought you died, because that blast from Moon Jerk hit your spark, and it looked bad, *sob*, I thought you had died and-"
"Sari, I'm alright, you don't have to worry, but thank you for showing your concern," I said interrupting her, I picked her up in my hand, and hugging her against my chest, her tears still rolling down her face, and my chest,
"James I-I," Sari began saying,
"Yes?"
"I l-love you." my eyes widen, that was a first time a girl ever said that to me, and hearing it from the most beautiful of people made it extremely special, "I had this feeling since you saved those fillies, I thought nothing of them, but they kept getting stronger each time you do something heroic, and seeing you nearly die, I realized that what I was feeling was for real, but if you don't feel the-" she was interrupted by the sound of plates shifting, looking up only to be met with kiss from me, she was surprised but accepted it.
I don't know how long we had been like that, but it was worth it, pulling away, I was smiling, "Was that proof that I feel the same way about you, Sari?"
"Yes," She said smiling as well, I was about say something I felt a presence in my mind, clutching my head in pain, I could hear Sari's screams becoming quieter and quieter, until nothing, I opened my eyes to see I'm in the Castle of the Two Royal Sisters throne room, and sitting on the throne, was a much smaller version of Nightmare Moon,
"Yay! The spell worked!" wait I know her, she's the reformed filly version of Nightmare Moon, NYX!!
"Nyx?"
"Well yes, how did you know?" she asked, still smiling,
"I know somethings about you, for one you were created by a cult of Nightmare Moon, hoping to bring her back, but instead got you, but shouldn't Celestia have sabotaged the ritual?"
"Yeah, and no, my friend saved me."
"And who is this friend?"
"Me." I turned around to come face to face with either the fearciome of Cybertronian creatures, or the most terrifying, because standing taller than Grimlock, was Transformers Prime Beast Hunter Predaking,
I stood my ground, even though on the inside I'm currently running to the other side of the planet, Predaking leaned down closer to me, to a point were I could feel the rage from him, "That friend would be me Prime, so if you harm her, I would personally tear you apart!"
"You won't have worry about that, Predaking, I protect the innocent, not harm them," I said cooly, still running to other side of the planet inside my mind though, now you're probably thinking, 'Why am I scared of someone bigger than me, when I fought against being who break the laws of physics, and can control shadows' well let me tell you.
Predaking is a predacon, the alpha predators, they're practically unstoppable, nothing can kill them, nothing can slow them down, they are walking death, but Predaking, he took on Megatron, and that's in his bot mode, he gave Megs a hard time to even land a blow, if it weren't for Starscream, Megatron would have been a mere stain on the ground.
That's why I'm freaking out, "Good, now you're probably why you are here," I nod my head, "Well it has to do with how I got here and to find a suitable sire for Nyx, and so I chose you," now that was an eye opener, me a parent, well of course I dreamed of having a kid of my own, but this was so sudden, but the little one has no parents, and was created for evil.
So the pros for Nyx are, she gets a father who will keep her safe from anything, a giant family if I'm counting the team, and will have a home and food, cons, she will have to watch a war unfold, and Sunbutt might kill her, that last one made my rage flare up, "Alright Predaking, I'll be the father of Nyx." Nyx practically jumped with joy, Predaking smiled, only faintly, "But I need your help," seeing him nod his head I told him everything.
How I'm not really Optimus, to the spot where the Crystal Empire is currently at war with Celestia, "And that answers that, and I'm pretty sure I answered any questions you had," he nod his head, I picked up Nyx and prepared to snap my fingers when Predaking stopped me,
"Before we leave, I have found something for you," he said walking to a stone pillar, and lifted it up and revealed a blade of Cybertronian history, a blade that is able to cleave mountains, a blade that is called the Star Saber in all its glory.
"By the Allspark," I said in disbelief, "How did you find it"
"It was here when I arrived, so I hid it in this pillar that I carved out." Predaking answered, I walked over to the mystical blade, and put my hand on the handle, and pulled, the blade coming out the ground glowing a magnificent blue, "It seems it deems you worthy of a prime, James." I thanked Predaking for keeping the blade safe, making sure my daughter was secure, I snapped my fingers and off we went, back to the Crystal Empire.
