"It wasn't what we expected. Our planet was being destroyed by an extra-dimensional monster and well. We had no choice but to fight together. Megatron never came back, Optimus did. Our planet was reborn and angry, and our neutrals and those who refused to take sides were too." It's not a pretty answer, no. But that's the truth.
"They didn't care about Autobots or Decepticons. Optimus eventually left and half of us went with my uh-. Erstwhile captain, Rodimus. We were looking for the Knights of Cybertron. I think some of them just went with because nobody really knows how to..."
He stops himself, falling back into his practiced smile.
"Heh, sorry. It's kind of complicated, really. Things were strange, we'll leave it at that. I don't think things will be stable for a while, back home."
