Megatron (Most Wanted)

Beaten and broken, time stood at a near standstill except for the slowly approaching blade of battle ax wielded by Optimus Prime, swinging in for the final blow. Suddenly, as though time skipped a moment, Megatron's body shifted and appeared behind Optimus Prime. Not questioning his good fortune, Megatron seized his opportunity to destroy both Optimus Prime and Sentinel Prime. Megatron should be dead, but he is not...

Staring out into the cosmos from his iron throne in New Kaon, Megatron knew that was the day that everything changed. Why had he not died? Megatron repaired himself bit by bit and returned to conquer Cybertron. But Megatron soon realized what Optimus had always known. It never ends. A new, even more powerful Autobot leader arose. A new war began. Was this just a cruel joke time was playing on the powerful Megatron? Should he have in fact died that day on the battlefield? He asked himself that very question as Rodimus Prime stood over him, about to land the final blow as he barely clung to the Spacebridge he was dangling from. Instead of facing his end as a warrior, he simply let go. Axiom Nexus is where he awoke.
