If only...If onlys didn't matter now. Megatron, the leader of the evil Decepticons was here, on Earth. He had arrived before Optimus could stop him. He had taken over a country that Optimus learned was then called the Soviet Union. Optimus Prime and his Autobots had arrived too late. Megatron had successfully created the start of his new empire by the time they had tracked him down on Earth. Optimus could not let Megatron to do this planet what had happened to Cybertron, the home world of all Transfomers. One destroyed planet was enough for Prime. It already upset him how much this planet and its people were suffering thanks to Megatron.<br/><br/>"She should be here soon."<br/><br/>Optimus Prime told his Autobots. When they arrived on Earth, they had arrived in Nevada. A state located in the United States of America. Ironically near a town called Roswell, which in 1947 was said to have had a UFO crashed here. Optimus smirked to himself, he and his brothers in arms were definitely not little green men. The then President of the United States had a been quite shocked at their arrival but also relieved. The nations of the world had no way of fighting back against the 'Cons and their advanced Cybertronian technology, who wanted to expand their empire and deplete the world of its Engeron. The President had set up a special task force of soldiers that were to aid the Autobots in defeating the Decepticons and saving the world. To help the humans in the fight, the Autobots helped the human scientists create what was called mecha. It was giant robots constructed utilizing Cybertronian technology that allowed skilled humans to pilot to match them in combat.<br/><br/>The President that Optimus Prime met with to create the alliance, had retired from office, but the presidents that followed had kept up the alliance. Since America was one of the leading nations in the world, it made sense for them to work with the Autobots. To be the leading nation in the war with the Decepticons. Not everyone liked the Autobots being here, but most agreed that the Autobots were the best way to defeat the Decepticons. Prime had hoped that it would be a short war, but it hadn't turned out that way. Each battle cost lives, human and Cybertronian. The first leader of the task force, had been a seasoned general. General  James Kozik had served in the United States military since he was eighteen. Rising through the ranks. He had been a good man, a smart leader, and a loyal solider. He and Optimus had shared many of the same ideals and despite being different species, they had bonded well and had become friends. A recent battle with the Decepticons in the Ukraine had cost Kozik his life, something that had saddened the Autobot leader greatly. He mourned the loss of his friend but the war was still continuing on. The President assigned a new leader to the special task force. Optimus Prime and his men were the state park to meet the new leader. Optimus didn't know much about her and wondered if she shared the same ideals as her predecessor.<br/><br/>This location was peaceful, Optimus thought. Bottomless Lakes State Park was located on the Pecos River. There were nine lakes and lots of natural wildlife. It was full of Energon, he thought. Not that he had would ever think of draining it for the Engeron. Actions like those had destroyed their home planet. They had to protect places like this from the Decepticons. Megatron had already destroyed places like this in Asia and Europe in his quest for domination.<br/><br/>-----------------------------<br/><br/>Unknown to the Autobots, their meeting with the new human leader would not be as private as they hoped. It had not escaped Megatron that Optimus and his army would be meeting with the new task force leader because of the death of the last one. Soundwave, the first Decepticon and probably the most loyal of all, was sent to spy on the Autobots. Of course, the meeting was in a state park and he would stand out, even in his satellite mode. That was okay, though. He had other ways of gathering information for his leader.<br/><br/>"Laserbeak, deploy. Mission, spy on Optimus Prime."<br/><br/>Soundwave commanded and a small metallic hawk squawked in his reply. Laserbeak flew out towards the state park. Flying high in the sky, appearing to be a hawk, like those native to the area.
