- Megatron: Sentinel, the betrayer, is dead. But his death has given life to a new enemy. A stronger enemy. A personal enemy. We will not be blinded by his deception. We are the ones who are. Decepticons, rise up!
- Orion Pax: My finger can transform, guess which one?
- [makes robot noises, slowly revealing his middle finger]
- Optimus Prime: [to Megatron] We could've built the future together.
- Megatron: [menacing] I'll build it myself! After I tear down everyone in my way!
- D-16: What are you doing?
- Orion Pax: It's over, D. Everyone in Iacon knows the truth.
- D-16: So do I! He took everything from us. I have to do this.
- Orion Pax: No, you don't. Rebuilding Iacon cannot begin with an execution.
- D-16: He deserves to die. Can't you see that?
- Orion Pax: We're better than this. Don't be like Sentinel.
- D-16: Pax, you need to move out of my way... before I move you myself.
- Orion Pax: [the Cybertronians are running for their lives] We need to hurry!
- D-16: I still think we've got better odds at fighting them than outrunning them!
- Elita -1: Wait! We have cogs! We can transform now!
- Orion Pax: That's right! Everyone ready?
- Elita -1: I was born ready!
- Orion Pax: Alright, on three: one...
- Orion Pax, D-16, Elita -1, B-127: [they weren't looking where they were going, they fall off a cliff] AAAAAAAAHHHH!
- D-16: [the gang is running for their lives and trying to transform for the first time] How do we use these things?
- Orion Pax: I don't know! Just try!
- [He pulls part of his chest plate, and he starts transforming]
- Orion Pax: Ha! It's working! IT'S working!
- [His head pops into the chest cavity]
- Orion Pax: Oh! My head! My head!
- Alpha Trion: [to Orion Pax, D-16, B-127, and Elita-1] Take their cogs, and access your full potential.
- Megatron: The age of Primes is over! No more false prophets! Follow me, and you will never again be deceived! RISE UP!
- Optimus Prime: We were given the power to change our world, and you chose to destroy it, just like Sentinel. You have betrayed Cybertron and its citizens.
- [opens battle mask]
- Optimus Prime: And you betrayed... *me*. Go. Take the High Guard. You are banished from Iacon. It didn't have to end this way.
- Megatron: This isn't over... Prime.
- Sentinel Prime: You pathetic little twits! Did you really think that you could knock down everything I've built?
- Orion Pax: It's over, Sentinel! You can't escape the truth!
- Sentinel Prime: *What* truth? That I plucked the cogs from your newborn chests? Forced you to mine so that I could pay off the Quintessons and live like a king? None of that matters, because the truth... is... what... I... *make* it!
- Alpha Trion: Orion Pax, your noble sacrifice for the greater good has proven you worthy in the eyes of Primus. He entrusts in you the future of Cybertron, and... the Matrix of Leadership!
- [the Matrix appears, seemingly out of thin air to Orion]
- D-16: I will lead us all into the future!
- [D-16 replaces the cog he received from Alpha Trion with Megatronus's, which D collected from Sentinel Prime's dead body and begins his transformation to Megatron]
- D-16: [Meanwhile, Orion's body lets the Matrix of Leadership in, healing his wounds and upgrading his body in the process]
- Megatron: I... am... Megatron!
- Alpha Trion: Arise... Optimus Prime.
- [Optimus Prime awakens, and flies back up to Iacon]
