Title: I'm sorry

By: Lobato

Rated: K

I don't own transformers, you know that.

"I'm sorry".

Is that all? All you can do is to apologize?

"I'm sorry".

I don't believe you. Not anymore. You've never known such a feeling which you showed me very clearly and painfully. Sure, you never would.

"I'm sorry".

Stop saying that. Get the sympathy off your face. Maybe you've been forced as you said – but even if you were given a choice you'd never hesitate. You always think twice before acting, as far as I know you, and your ever-calculated plans had never failed because of such a silly mistake. Yes, I have to admit, I didn't know you well...

Was it done in case to show me how blind my faith in you was? You wanted me to see this?

I trusted you. I had always been obedient, always done everything you told me to... I'd learned everything you'd taught me. You were the one who gave me my motto – any sentient being has the right of freedom, the right of choice.

What happened? How could I miss the moment then your love and care had grown into hate as Megatron's once had?

"Forgive me, Optimus. You must understand – all I ever wanted is to return peace to our planet. To Cybertron, our home. You have to see why I had to betray you".

"You didn't betray me. You betrayed yourself".

I'm sorry, my Prime. My mentor. My old friend.
