Cybertron, in a way peaceful at least, lifeless, but peaceful ever since its inhabitants left in order to help the planet heal. Cybertron was now quiet, dark, lifeless.
That is until a space bridge opened in high orbit and a intact Ark and a exploding warship escaped its vortex.

The Driller was doomed, all controls where loss, the cons where evacuating and Shockwave was no where to be found.
The Autobots where attempting to land the Ark in the one place it would be safe, Iacon, the Autobot capital where the ship first launched.
Despite the protest of the CMC saying they should go after Grimlock, Spike and the Ponies, they knew they landing was top priority now.
"They'll be fine, Grimlock is with them"
_________________________________________________________________________
Grimlock was asleep, the experience of going trough a space bridge exposed and without a ship is something he should never do again.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw the he was flying trough space at a high speed he shifted his position and saw it.
Cybertron.
Grimlock thought back to the day when he was in Shockwaves lab when he was tutored to the point he saw visions of the future, Starscream unintentionally getting him out, finding his friends, biting Shockwaves arm, he had foreseen these thing and they came to pass, Grimlock declared that his Dinobots served only on thing "Cybertron".
And now he was home again.
He was getting closer to the planet, any second now the burn of atmosphere entry would take effect, he would survive given his strong armor.
Grimlock them spotted a bunched of colorful objects that where also tumbling trough the void, the ponies!
If they entered the atmosphere, they would burn up in 5 seconds.
Grimlock activated his thrusters and rocketed to Rainbow Dash, he grabbed her then placed him on his chest, then Rarity, Spike, Pinkie Pie, Flutteshy, Twilight, and Applejack all safe in his arms.
He them spotted two more ponies, a white colt with a blue main and a pink alicorn in a case.
Shining Armor woke up to a startle, he remembered now, he was in space! his oxygen spell was working thank Celestia,
Remebering why he was out here he looked around frantically (which is hard in space) then he spotted what he was looking for.
Cadence still in her cage, unconscious.
He tried calling out to her, but remembered Twilight saying something about sounds unable to be heard trough space.
All he could do was watch as the case entered the planets atmosphere and fall.
And his heart sharrtered.
Feeling the was no point in living Shining Armor waited to feel the heat of his death, he closed his eyes and waited.
But instead of felling burns he felt something grab him and hold him tight.
He opened his eyes to see Grimlock and the other ponies squished together as he somehow heard Grimlock say.
"HOLD ON!"
The ponies closed their eyes and Grimlock descended to the ground, the fire burning his back.

The landing was better then expected, with the Allspark in their possession they where able to repair the Ark to its original state and the Ark touched on the surface of Cybertron like a a good ship.
"This Jazz speaking exit doors are on the right, thank you for flying air Ark!"
Applebloom was the first at the door with her friends she wanted to see this new world, she imagined a beautiful metal city with many wonders.
The Autobot Hound picked them up and put them on his shoulder.
"Ready to see another planet?" Hound said
"Sure am I can't wait!"
The door opened, the CMC closed their eyes.
The sound of the Autobots exited the Ark and on tho the surface of the planet was the sign to open.
Applebloom opened her eyes.
And her smile faded.
The city was not as she expected it was grey, mostly everyting around here was grey, buildings where broken streets where sunken and their where no signs of life anywhere.
_____________________________________________________________________
Twilight was dreaming, she dreamt about recent events, her Alicron status being striped, her firend flying trough space to who knows where, and in the clutchs of GRimlock as they fell to the surface.
She dreamt all that before finally awakening.
Her eyes Fluttered open, she got up and looked at her surrondings, as far as her eye could see their was a grey plain streching nito infinity to the east was the ruins of a highly advanced cit up she saw the lunar light of two moons.... wait she saw that right? TWO moons!
The moons had antanas that where visible, a coming fog covered the sky and conceling the ground.
This was unbelivable grimlock said that Cyberton was as oldder than she could imagine, she was supried that planet was in one peice if the war was that bad.
The she snapped out of the daydream when she head the sound of a farm pony calling her name.
"Twilight!"
the lavander unicron turned to see Applejack atop a cliff with Spike, Rarity, Rainbow Dash was Flying,and Fluttershy, while Pinkie was bouncing as ever.
"Applejack, Spike your all alright!"
She had never been more mappier to see her friends.
"Come on up!" Rainbow Dash said
It was a struggle given the steepness of the hill but she made it up.
"Wow, if I still had wings that would have been faster"
The mood darkened when Twilight said those words, the loss of her wings felt like all her acomplishments where for nothing. She felt powerless, especially on this world.
"Where are we?" Rarity said
The group looked around again at the dark sky.
"I think where on Cybertron" Twilight said
"Autobots home planet? It could be" Spike said
"Maybe Grimlock will know" Applejack said
"GRIMLOCK!" How could they have forgeten about him! "Where is he!"
"Oh no we didn't see him when we woke up!"
"Weve got tho find him!"
The group searched frantically, then Rainbow Dash spotted a large crater.
And their was a large metal being inside said crater
"I think I found him!"
The group converged on Rainbow postion and ran to the crater.
They wasted no time going into it and running up to their friend.
"Try to use C.P.R!" Applejack said
"He has no mouth!" Twilight said
"The Heimlich manuver?" Spike said
"Do you see how big he is!?" Rainbow said
"Wait I got an idea, it may be a long shot but it could work!" Twilight said
"What?" Rarity said
Twilight got up on Grimlocks chest and walked up to his center.
"What are you doing?" Fluttershy said
Twilight gentely pushed her hoof on Grimlocks chest.
Then their was a hissing sound and Grimlocks chest opened
"Woah, how did you that would work!?" Rainbow said
"I didn't, I just guessed!"
The chest moved and shifted parts until it reveled what Twilight was looking for.
The Allspark Matrix.
The ponies where drawn to the glowing Matrix, to them this was all that remained of the Elements of Harmony after Unicron had destroyed them, the perfect combination of the Magic of friendship and the power from another world to which they did not know.
"If we can try to connect the Elements again, maybe it will wake him up!"
"But remember when Celestia said that if the Elements are passed onto another user the former will lose its connection the them?"
"Weve got to try, he saved our lives, our world! Everypony we know, we owe him more then that, its the least we can do!"
The ponies looked at each other.
"She right we at least have to try" Applejack said
"Okay on the count of three, one ,two, thre-
The sound of something powering up was heard, the lights on Grimlocks body began to flicker on and he moved!
Twilight got off as Grimlocks chest closed and he began to get up.
Grimlocks optics flickered to life and he rose to his feet he was still dazed from the impact, but would manage.
He tried walking, but he felt 7 things grab him and cheer in girly voices.
When his vision cleared, he saw the ponies hugging him.
"Grimlock your alright!" Twilight said with tear in her eyes"
"I knew it all along!"
"Yeah right Rainbow, non of us knew" Applejack said
Grimlock was supried.
"Your all alive!"
"Of course, we got big brute Grimlock to thank for that"
Grimlock was relieved, but after doing a head count he counted only 6 ponies.
"Wait where is Shining Armor?"
Twilight widdened her eyes, her brother was unaccounted for!
"Yeah where is Armor?" Rainbow Dash said
Before anyone could answer. Their was a voice heard above them.
"Up here!"
The group looked up to see a white stallion looking down on him.
"Shining Armor, your alright!" Twilight said
"Its good to see you all in one piece"
The ponies got out of the crater and Twilight hugged her brother.
"Wheres Cadence?"
"Thats what I came to get you all for, her cage survived the impact, but I'm still supriesed she's still in one piece"
"Wow Shockwave must have made the cage to last!"
"Come on shes over here!"
The group ran over to a glass case embeded into the ground, and inside was a pink alicron.
"Stand back!" Grimlock said
The Dinobot walked up to the cage and ripped it open.
The alicron came out and embraed her husband.
"I'm so glad your alright!" She said
As the couple cared for another Grimlock looked up to the sky.
And saw the buring form of the Driller fall to the surface.
Their attention captivated by the deteriorating ship the group wacthed as it crashed into Megatrons palace.
Wait, Megatrons palace!?
Then it hit Grimlock like bullet
"Where in Kaon"
The ponies stopped talking and looked at Grimlock.
Twilight was confused.
"Whats Kaon?"
"Kaon is the Deceptiocn captial, and if I just saw right that was Megatrons palace that the ship just crashed into"
"Whos Megatron?" Shining Armor asked
"Megatron is the leader of all Decepticons"
"Wait I thought Shockwave was?" Twilight said
"No Shockwave is Megatrons commander he is someone you do not want to meet"
Twilight looked into the east and saw the remains of the ship and the building exploed in a huge ball of fire.
"Well I guess Megatron won't be needing his place anymore!" Rainobw Dash said
Grimlock started to walk.
"Lets go" He said
"Wait what?" Spike said
"Why, can't you give us a chance to catch our breath take a break at least?" Cadence said
"Cadence you heard what Grimlock said, where in enemy territory" Twilight said
"Twilights right, if their is one thing I have learned is that the enemy doesn't like it when you step into their home"
"Well what are waiting for!?" Rainobw flew after Grimlock "Lets go!"
The ponies still injured broke into a run.
Heading for the heart of enemy Territory.
Little did they know a pair of dragon like eyes where watching them.
