The Sorcerers were formed in this mass of Dragons to blend in with the non-shapeshifting creatures. The Humans perched on the backs of Dragons and Sorcerers. Each individual was armoured in Sacorian Steel.

StarFire stood next to Unicron and initiated the mass link.

Tactical Insights and Information will be only sent through this link. Verbal communication is strictly forbidden she sent to her army. Unicron signalled for the army to mobilise, Primus' army ran whilst the Rebellion marched. StarFire flew the Rebellion Empire's Flag.

As the armies clashed so did former friends and colleagues.

Nick used his armoured tail to deflect the slashes from Ratchet's blade. Arcee had transformed into her motorcycle form and dodged a blast from Saasik, before punching said Sorcerer in the faceplate.

Knockout had managed a few deep gouges between Taarin's armour. The mech was then forced to transform into his seeker form to not risk anymore damage. All the while StarFire Prime stood with the flag, issuing orders over the link to her people. Unicron watched intently.

"StarFire, my Prime, intervene and keep a close eye on Optimus. It is no secret that Primus wishes for him to end you" the god said. StarFire transformed into a Dragon and took off from the hill. She flew over the mass of soldiers and used Blue Fire to disarm a few.

"They're calculating our next moves too well" StarFire observed.

"Is the Rebellion Link secure" Unicron said. Both looked at the battle and the losing Empire. StarFire rejoined the link and searched for any new voices. She found a technological presence and scoured the landscape.

"It's Soundwave" she growled.

StarFire flew as a dragon towards where Soundwave stood towards the back of the Cybertronian Army. StarFire picked him up and tossed him to one side, knocking him out and securing the Rebellion Link.

She was dragged to the ground, the impact accidentally turning her into her human form. She found herself underneath one of Optimus Prime's pedes.

-----

She smiled, the rest of the Empire did not rush to her aid as thought. "Finish it" Primus said.

StarFire used her Earth Element to create vines that lifted the other Prime into the air.

Would you like to finish this? Unicron

Bring it on StarFire

The femme Prime watched as Unicron dissipated into her mind. Her horns and optic ridges extended as she was transformed into her seeker form, a couple of the modifications that explained that the God had temporarily merged forms. "I think the Empire has won. The great Optimus Prime is helpless. His God at our mercy" StarFire said. Unicron smiled, making the merged frame smile.

"My brother, such a shame for you to betray me" he said. Unicron's Prime unleashed a mixture of all the elements and purple fire that engulfed Primus. The golden Magic Dragon disappeared, vanished from the universe.

The Rebellion bowed simultaneously to Unicron's Prime. The Cybertronians were lost for words. Unicron let StarFire's frame return to normal. "The Rebellion Empire lives on in all of us. And now the Cybertr-" she started. Optimus had dislodged himself and ran up to her. He punched the right side of her snout. When the Empress attempted to breathe some sort of Element, there was nothing. She stumbled and shot him a glare.

"My Eleg-" she started and coughed, "you best pray that this is fixable."

"Why?" He asked. She lunged at him and kneed him in the abdomen.

"That should render your transformation cog unusable for a while"

Nick rushed to scan StarFire's snout for damage. "The cells within are shocked. It may take a while, with the right therapy, to heal. But before then, no transformation or elements" he said.

StarFire looked over to where Ratchet was scanning the other Prime's t cog. "No damage that would disable it" the medic said. StarFire's seeker wings fluttered in the attempt to split into dragon wings. Nick glared at her.

"What did you do to Primus?" Optimus asked, well mostly demanded.

"Primus has been extradited to the World of the Magic Dragons. It is on the other side of the known Universe, accessible by a rift in time, like a wormhole here on Avalaria. It is possible to see to the other side at times" Saasik explained.

"Humans, the RES Volatus will be arriving shortly to escort you back to Earth. You may then select an Ambassador for your people, a few Humans would be asked to reside on Sacor with their families to strengthen ties between our species'" StarFire said to the Humans. She blanked the other Prime as she turned to the Cybertronians.

"I understand that you do not have a permanent residence. I offer a number of you residence on Sacor. A recently discovered planet, although organic, would be offered for your race" she continued. Optimus vented.

"StarFire" he said, "Empress?" He asked more politely.

"Yes" she replied. Megatron smiled.

"This is a tactful dictatorship, very close to my own way of command. I like this femme" he said. StarFire smiled back.

"Optimus Prime, you and the Autobots are to follow the instruction of my higher command to get accommodation and the like sorted. Megatron if your Decepticons could do likewise. Megatron, I would like to speak with you" StarFire announced.

She stood to one side with the former warlord, only looking up a fraction.
"It's about time that mech was put in his place, but for now I have to live with the damage until it heals" she said.

"May I ask exactly what was damaged"

"The Elegium, an organ stored in the snout of Sorcerers. It contains the cells that secrete different energies to create different elements. These are activated by parents with familial intent with their main element to be used. Optimus knocked the cells into shock. Judging by the vibrations of the cells, they cannot be called upon in this state. Rendering my magic, my Elemental abilities and my transformation useless for a few days" she replied.

"Your Commander detailed that he would need to do the necessary therapy" he said.

"Yes, but for now I'd wish to resume my duty as Empress" she replied. He paused for a bit.

"I'd like to get to know you better" he said.

"Very well Lord of the Decepticons. At least my favourite physician won't bug me about being alone" she replied.

The pair walked away until they saw the RES Volatus, RES D'rachanya and the Nemesis enter the atmosphere. StarFire smiled as she shook Megatron's servo. "See you on Sacor" she said.

"Until then" he replied as he planted a courteous kiss upon her digits.
