* As if things can't get any weirder... a comm suddenly comes across the frequency. The source? A vehicle approaching the Ark at high speeds.
[Orion Pax] [open comm] So, I'm sitting in Iacon on a Wednesday night... I'm a leader, maybe you've heard of it, the Great War? On Thursday, I drive down to the Space Bridge. From the Space Bridge I go to Earth, and now I'm on my way to Portland. My first trip to Portland was the absolute WORST trip of my entire life. And I travel a LOT! I've been all over, from Cybertron to Nebulos, to Gobotron... I've been all over!
But that first trip... my shuttle to the Ark was late, so I had to hustle over to the Ark. I've got people LAUGHING at me, because Ironhide is complaining about his aches and pains, and he makes it to the Ark first! And then they tell me I've got to run the fragging ship. So, I sit on the bridge of that ship for FORTY FIVE YEARS, listening to Gears complain about everything from the quality of the Energon to being forced to room with Huffer, And when I FINALLY get some peace and quiet, when I FINALLY have things under control, here come the fragging Decepticons blowing a hole in my ship. So, apparently, I'm ordering BOTH sides to fight, there's chaos, and then... and THEN the ships start to crash. But you know what I did? You know what I did because I'm Orion Pax, high grade free and electrum free? I grabbed hold of the Ark, spread out my arms like wings, I even grabbed that piece of junk Decepticon ship, and I angled us for reentry, and we SURVIVED. And you know why? Because I am a legend. I am the MECH. And so I finally get to Earth, and I have to put up with the same SLAG I put up with on Cybertron.
Megatron? Megatron, you beat me ONE. TIME. And I have a 4000 degree Kelvin temperature and a case of cosmic rust! And you know what, whatever Earth was known for before, I'm going to make it famous. So, continuing the Great War? I'm Orion Pax, I'm known for beating the odds...so after I slag you sixty seven million times, whenever you get a scratch in the "W" column, if you can, if I let you, it STILL won't matter. And you know why? Because I'm high grade free, electrum free, and I'm BETTER than you. [end comm]
