"Hope"
By J.T. Magnus, "Turbo"

I hope...
I hope one day we'll win this war.
I hope one day we won't need to fight.
I hope...

It's a strange thing, hope is. It can be your saving grace and it can drive you mad.

I hope I can see my friends as friends and not enemies again.
I hope Cybertron enters a new Golden Age.
I hope...

Many times, it's all that keeps me from using my gun on myself... just to see the look on their faces.

How can I be strong all of the time? Hope...

A hope for a better world...
A hope for equality...
A hope for justice...

After all, win or lose, I still have hope.

Nothing and no one can take that away...

One of my associates speaks, "Laserbeak returns, Megatron."

The cassetticon condor lands on my arm, "Excellent Laserbeak," I shot a glance at a nearby red and white jet, "Unlike some of my other warriors, YOU never fail me..."

Author's Note: I apologize if you feel I put Megatron out of character, but who honestly knows what he's like behind the facade of the Decepticon Supreme Commander?
