Optimus Prime

The crash was the most deafening part.

You would work day after day, tired of the monotonous loop over and over, day after day, on this quaint farm deep in the countryside.

Today felt different. Not from the strangely vibrant flowers, nor the water rushing strangely calm despite the rushing wind.

The forest itself felt alive.

You discard your shovel, walking deep into the forest, towards the clearing.

Thick, almost mechanical footsteps, and words. Whatever was at the clearing was sentient and perhaps mechanical too.

Red and blue was the first you saw at the clearing. As the branches quake as you shove them aside, you see a tall, red and blue... robot?

Then, he speaks.

"Its... beautiful..."

You had one mission. Locate Optimus upon landing on earth.

It would be easier if it wasn't covered in foliage and rock.

Every step dragged as another branch or vine hooked.

However, as you take that last step, you promptly fall down and down, rock smashing down onto you.

You force the rock off, when you see Optimus looking away from you almost as if he never even heard you.

"It's... beautiful." He speaks.
