After two years, Cerebros and Fortress Maximus are alive. Dust Devil and Backblast took me and Cerebros to Vector Sigma last night. After Megatron attacked The Ark two years ago, I thought this would be the idealized response. A literal "sanctuary city" for those who can't defend themselves. But instead of a sanctuary city, it's a battle station, because honestly, you will need something to push back against your oppressors.

But I'm far from elated. To be honest, I'm really freaked out right now. No one knows this, but right now... and it's been going on since last night - I can "hear" Cerebros' thoughts. It's not imagined. Okay, maybe it is. But it's like whatever I'm "hearing" isn't coming from my head, but of course it is, because I'm "hearing" it - good lord, what's happening to me?!

It started when we met Alpha Trion. First off, I've never seen him irritated or pissed at me. But that's the vibe I got when we arrived. It's like we inconvenienced him. I know he usually is like three or four steps ahead of everyone, but he seemed genuinely put out. He even accused me of "playing god" - and "demanding" that he give life to my creation. What a crock! I helped create a few of the Dinobots with Chip. This is no different. Ratchet, Hoist, Grapple, all had just as much to do with Fort Max as me - moreso, actually. THEN, he says he sees Fort Max playing a role in the Autobots' future. I don't know if that's another one of his vague, philosophical declarations, or if he genuinely saw something going down in the future.

Anyway ... something happened. Vector Sigma began to glow, but instead of Cerebros getting zapped, it was me who got zapped. I was lifted, and the only way I can describe it was suddenly, I was bathed in this sea of blinding light, and ... not getting too dramatic, but that light "beam" - seemed to split my consciousness in two. I blacked out. And when I came to...let's just say I'm where I'm at now.

I gotta make an appointment with First Aid. I never thought I'd be hoping for a concussion, but that's exactly what may have happened. On a seprate topic, Cerebros seems healthy. Although...again, I have no idea what the hell Alpha Trion is doing, but he had me crawl into Cerebros' head to activate him. When I crawled into his head - good lord, this sounds like that movie "Being John Malkovich" - I blacked out AGAIN - and had a dream that Cerebros was just fine - we were acting and moving as one.

I love the Autobots. I love my life. But right now, I'm genuinely freaked out.
