Transformers Prime: I am Allspark

City: Kaon

[21 Days After Megatron's Appearance]

"I have to admit, Soundwave, I'm amazed at how we're gaining followers." Megatron stood with his hands behind his back, admiring the statue being erected in his honor.

It was ironic that in the same city where he had been enslaved for so long, a statue would be erected in his name, as if it were now a symbol of his conquest among all, as if he were now a living legend to be worshipped.

"I underestimated myself, I didn't imagine that Kaon would be the first city to fully support the proposal of my future government." Megatron admitted to Soundwave, his voice loud enough for the other two bots to hear.

"Lord Megatron, Kaon was already ready to be led by a savior, it just needed the right moment to reveal who it would be." Said a robot with the features of a flyer with purple and gold parts, called Dredwing. "My twin brother and I are ready for any mission you give us."

"My brother's right, if you need us to crush some Autobot heads, don't hesitate to call." Said the robot next to Dreadwing, who was practically a copy, only with more green and silver in his armor, called Skyquake.

As Megatron had gathered a large number of allies in the past few days, his words had managed to reach potential warriors with obviously outstanding abilities that had the potential to be even more powerful than elite Autobots, and that was the case of Dreadwing and Skyquake, two bots born from the same spark that split in their bodies, giving them a mystical connection to each other, and now these two willing warriors have given him their loyalty and confidence to follow.

"Hahahahahahahahaha, I'm glad you're both aware that our crusade could be hindered by the High Guard." Megatron smiled, his eyes glowing slightly red, reversing the blue color they normally displayed. "The Autobots must already be playing cards against our compatriots, trying to weaken us."

"My Lord, the Autobots are cowards, but fortunately my brother and I are used to them using illegal means, and we know of some specific Autobots who are probably already disguised among us to gather information." Dreadwing said, a very useful piece of information that caught the attention of Megatron and Soundwave. "These mishaps can be easily handled by me."

Megatron rested his arms on the railing of the building as he watched his statue near completion, hundreds of thousands of bots anxiously awaiting his words to lead them in this revolution against the High Council.

"Are there any Autobots that I should be concerned about, or that would be a threat to us?" Megatron asked, glancing expectantly at Soundwave and the twin brothers.

"Hmmmmm... In the short term, I don't see any Autobot posing a threat to you, Master, but in the long term, yes, his name is Ultra Magnus." Skyquake revealed, causing Megatron to raise an eyebrow in curiosity. "Despite reports from other leaders who have led the Royal Guard in the past, Ultra Magnus is committed to ending corruption among his own troops and senior military brass."

"Interesting, but why would he be a problem? We could help him dissect the traitors and have him as an ally." Megatron said, waiting for an answer to his question.

"Ultra Magnus is a bot who follows the military code to the letter, it's very likely he wouldn't even consider helping us because of his oath." Skyquake explained. "He puts the law above his moral code."

"A bot bound by the rules of the High Council, if he cannot break the chains placed upon him, then he is of no use to me." Megatron expressed seriousness, with a subtle tone of threat and disappointment for Ultra Magnus.

"We understand Lord Megatron, if the situation demands it, my brother and I will eliminate him for you." Dreadwing swore an oath that deeply pleased Megatron's Spark.

Soundwave took a step forward and made a subtle, imperceptible beep, alerting Megatron that the construction of his statue was complete and that it was time for his speech, which would be the most important one yet.

"Very well, time to boost the morale of my followers." Megatron prepared his mind, the speech planned days in advance.

Megatron smiled and walked to a platform to launch himself into flight and transform into his Battle Fighter mode to make a grand entrance to give his speech more impact, with Soundwave himself accompanying him as a political figure to show his support.

Thousands of bots gazed at the statue of Megatron in awe, seeing the gladiator, charismatic leader, and liberator of Cybertron. Everyone's attention was captured as they heard the sound of a fighter jet taking flight, the characteristic sound of the sound barrier being broken in a breathtaking roar, as if to many it signaled the arrival of a god.

Megatron flew toward his statue at high speed, in a terrifying dive as if he were about to crash uncontrollably into the ground and die a violent death, but that didn't happen. Megatron shifted into his humanoid mode and landed with his fist slamming into the ground, creating a crater around him, and rose unharmed with his giant statue behind him, making all of his followers scream in pure excitement at such a maneuver and display of power. Soundwave did the same, but wisely not with the same impact, simply positioning himself publicly as Megatron's right-hand man, but with enough impact to show that he was not to be underestimated either, since following Megatron's side can only be done by the strong.

"Cybertronians! You have called me, and I have answered your call! We are gathered here not only to celebrate our growing strength, but to show that the city of Kaon is under our influence, that one of the great cities is now the heart of our awakening against the darkness." Megatron speaks proudly, seeing how many of his followers back his words with shouts and whistles. "Today I will tell you a story that many may not know, but it is natural. Long ago on Cybertron, when the great Primes ruled our world and were attacked by the Quintessons, there were dedicated, proud and loyal warriors who gave their lives and sacrificed their bodies to protect our planet. Though they did not possess the powers of the Primes, they were feared by the Quintessons because they were different, brothers united as one, synchronized, determined and deadly, making even the most evil of the Quintessons tremble with fear at the mere mention of their name."

Megatron's words captured the curiosity of the young Cybertronians, as if they were all students while a teacher taught them a valuable lesson.

"What I wish to do is rekindle what was once the legacy of these warriors. They once fought to protect our homeland. Now it is our turn to follow in their footsteps and honor our Cybertronian heritage!" Megatron extended the Energon cannon attached to his arm and fired into the sky, causing the explosion to explode in the sky. With that, the many of his followers who were positioned in various buildings, raised flags, banners with a coat of arms that would become iconic in the future, a symbol of a revolution. "Just as the Quintessons could not crush the will of these warriors, we will not be crushed. We will fight as one. We will make the High Council cringe at the sound of our name. We will shatter their false ideology as if it were a simple, fragile crystal."

Many Bots, both male and female, began to feel a fire burning within them, a determination, a fighting spirit taking root in their sparks.

Skyquake and Dreadwing smiled, both twin brothers becoming more and more convinced that Megatron was the only bot worthy of their loyalty, the only one they would put their strength and skills into for the sake of this revolution. They both knew, they were no fools, that the Autobots would try to sabotage their master, they knew that conflict was inevitable, and they were not afraid to pour Cybertronian Energon into the process for the sake of a brighter future.

Both twin brothers are warriors, Megatron knew how to convince them to join his cause, and just as he had once been a gladiator, Megatron knew that other gladiators were waiting to be summoned to this revolution under his command.

"WE WILL FIGHT AS ONE, WE WILL RAISE OUR SWORDS AGAINST THEM, WE WILL ELIMINATE THE WEAK WHO COWARDLY REFUSE TO FIGHT FOR FREEDOM! WE WILL NOT BE THE WEAK LINK IN OUR WORLD!" Megatron roared, causing everyone to scream in excitement. "ALL WHO ARE HERE READY TO RISE ARE THE TRUE SYMBOLS OF FREEDOM, HERE THERE IS NO ROOM FOR WEAKNESS OR FOR WEAK PEOPLE WHO REFUSE TO OPPOSE THE GOVERNMENT, WE ARE THE FUTURE! WE...ARE.... THE NEW DECEPTICONS!!!
