END GAME Part Seven: DEPARTURE
Hours after the battle, once the wounded have been tended to and the toll accounted for, Prima appears on the scene with his siblings, all bearing the healing wounds and marks of battle on their giant frames. The seven of the Haven are minus one of their own number on this day, which leaves their triumph only bittersweet. However, in light of their victory, six other figures linger in the distance, waiting to join their siblings in their own celebrations.
But for now, the celebration is for those of Haven alone.
The six First Forged gather their fighters among the debris, taking stock, healing and repairing and giving council as the group is rallied in from the Core and Badlands.
The Acolytes even bring forth the noncombatants from the temples, ushering them toward the call - it is a gathering for everyone that remains.
Meanwhile, the Lambda floats above, smaller and indistinct; the color of the rift's edges turned to a nonthreatening aurora of blues and teals, versus the previous acid green of Unicron's emergence. Vector Prime flies up to hover around it's slowly shrinking edges, clearly doing something to manipulate the space-tear with his various powers. It flickers occasionally, scenes and places appearing too quickly to identify within it's fractured edges.
When everyone is gathered, he hovers closer with a nod, and the leader of the Thirteen addresses them all.
"Marked ones. Travelers. Heroes. Unicron is gone, lost to a distance that will take eons to breech, if ever!"
He gestures up to the sky.
"Thanks to you, our greatest hope has been preserved, and our world can truly begin."
Prima clasps a hand over his chest - over his spark - in a gesture of the utmost respect. His siblings mimic him, and they all incline helms and upper-frames in varying shades of a bow. Alpha Trion spreads his hands wide, gesturing to the group at large.
"You have our deepest and most profound thanks. With your will on our side - and your Marks amplifying both our strength and the resistance to Unicron - the tides were turned."
Solus Prime shoulders her hammer, weary but triumphant.
"And, now that we have control over the Lambda, we can send you home."
"But. We would also extend an invitation."
"Those of you who have stayed with us, worked with us- aided us in our conflicts and the building of our world: we would give you a choice."
"Three choices, really." Grinning wide, the titanic Nexus Prime leans over his elder sibling's shoulder, which is enough to make even Prima's frame groan, holding up matching digits. Vector Prime teleports over to land at the head of the group, voice carrying readily.
"The first, and most simply: you will return home, as you were when you left your reality, to the very moment in time that you left it. All will be preserved, and any damage to your timeline from Unicron's interference will be prevented. Your time here - your imprisonment on this world, if you consider it thus, will feel as nothing but a fleeting dream."
Trion nods sagely, consulting the pages of his Covenant with the utmost care.
"The second: Again, you can return home, to whence you came. But you will remain as you are now, with what physical improvements you may carry, and with the memories you hold, intact."
Vector Prime immediately holds up a foreboding hand, voice going grim.
"I can guarantee a fracture in the timeline, if you chose this path. It will be stable...but new. Untested. You choose this path at your own risk - but the option of retaining your memories, a portion of your life - is a reward we cannot deny."
Nexus Prime straightens, much to his brother's visible relief, gesturing broadly to the group at large.
"And finally, for your friendship and aid, we offer the highest reward we can give."
"We offer you the chance to stay, to remain with us here, on our newly born world, as heroes for all time."
"You will always have a home here, and be welcomed as the some of the first citizens of this world. You earned it - and it would be weird without ya'll, you know?"
Previously silent, Megatronus snorts heavily, arms crossed over a battle damaged chest.
"Or you can leave now. But whatever you decide, you will need to choose fast."
"We regret that we must rush your choice, but the Lambda will only remain for so long. Without Unicron's power fueling it, it shrinks by the hour."
Solus gestures above to the shrinking wound in the sky, Vector confirming her words with a glance.
"You have only days to decide: and to choose wisely. Once the Lambda is closed, it cannot be undone."
"Whatever you decide, go with our blessing and eternal thanks. Your contributions shall not be forgotten."
The First Forged bow to the assembled group one final time, before scattering to return to their much-needed duties and waiting kin; leaving the assembled group to confer among themselves.
For some, the end of their time on Cybertron has come at last.
For others, it has only just begun.

[[Thank you all for participating in Re-Alignment! The game is now officially CLOSED.]]
It has been a long, crazy ride, and we thank you all for sticking with us for so long, until the end! <3 It has been a pleasure!
Feel free to continue tagging any End Game threads, posts, and posting any reactions/final get-togethers, whathaveyou to the comms for as long as you wish.
And as your a final reward, anyone who wishes to have a small blub regarding their character's personal choice and endgame may fill out the text box below, and post it among the comments!
Replies will filter in as time and real life obligations allow. And please note that choosing the 'canon' ending will be much more limiting in terms of what there is to work with.
Thank you all - I hope you have enjoyed our (very long) End Game!

THE FINAL CHOICE
THE ALTERNATIVE CHOICE
Liege's plan to aid Unicron has failed: but he has escaped through the Lambda, fleeing to the far reaches of space...

THE FINAL CHOICE
THE ALTERNATIVE CHOICE
Liege's plan to aid Unicron has failed: but he has escaped through the Lambda, fleeing to the far reaches of space...
no subject
Character name: Rose
Alignment: Primary: Vector; Secondary: Prima
Participated in battle? (link):
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): REMAIN! She knows she is supposed to be dead in own world, so if she goes back it will probably be to the afterlife. Also, she feels that being brought to Cybertron was a second chance, and also a chance for redemption so she would like to continue on that path. A new life and a new purpose.
Character name: Ravage
Alignment: Primary: Nexus; Secondary: Trion
Participated in battle? (link):
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): Canon AU! He'll be super sad about it but he also misses his friends back home and feels some responsibility to go home. But also, he doesn't want to forget the adventure he had while on this strange Cybertron, nor forget the friends he made.
Character name: Cinderella
Alignment: Primary: Vector Secondary: Liege
Participated in battle? I didn't actually play her in battle due to RL so I'm going to say she gave support from the ground.:
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): Canon since she has to many responsibilities back in her world, and she just feels it's best to keep the whole experience as a dream.
no subject
Character name: Thundercracker
Alignment: Trion primary/Megatronus secondary, both strong links
Participated in battle? (link): Yes here (http://re-alignment.dreamwidth.org/319000.html?thread=34363672#cmt34363672) and here (http://re-alignment.dreamwidth.org/319000.html?thread=34449944#cmt34449944) (sorry, too lazy to HTML links 9,9...also gonna reply to Lea tomorrow)
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): He's going to stay. There's nothing at home for him anymore. Here he has his freedom and he's recently learned that he'll die very soon in his own timeline anyway.
Character name: Deckard
Alignment: Prima (secondary Vector Prime, still relatively weak)
Participated in battle? (link): Yes, here (http://re-alignment.dreamwidth.org/319508.html?thread=34418964#cmt34418964) and here (http://re-alignment.dreamwidth.org/319508.html?thread=34447892#cmt34447892)
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): He's . . . he's going to go home. He feels he's more needed there, as vitally important as what's going on here is. However, as memories are EVERYTHING to a BP, and he's made too many friends here to willingly choose to forget, he'll go back with his memories of this place. He'll try to talk McCrane and Gunmax into going back with him. He'll talk to Shadowmaru and Kagerou...but won't try to talk either of them into going back. There's nothing to go back TO for Kage, and he knows Maru won't leave his
loverbrother.no subject
Character name: Drift
Alignment: Vectorian
Participated in battle? (link)
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): Drift's staying with Wing, assuming Wing is staying. Which would probably be in his best interests since he'd just die horribly if he goes back so.
Character name:Gunmax
Alignment: Primary: Megatronic, Secondary: Maxic
Participated in battle? (link)
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): man MAN he gotta stick with his bro Deckard so he's gonna leave, keeping his radical memories.

Participated in battle? (link): Yup, though I failed at it, lol! Here
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): Canon AU. Much as he loves the freedom he has here, and the few friends he's made. It's incredibly lonely being the only one of your kind here. Plus he misses his brethren Darksteel, Shockwave and, yes, even Starscream. However he would want to keep his memories intact to know the things he's learned here.
Character name: Bulkhead
Alignment: Primary: Solus Prime Secondary: Nexus Prime. He became a Solian Initiate in December, and both alignments are pretty strong.
Participated in battle? (link): Yep! Here and Here
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): He is staying, Solus is stuck with him forever~ /shot. He has ties here, and many friends. He also has a purpose, and while Cybertron back home could use him too, he believes that one will get help easier with returning refugees. He's grown and changed here, and this is like a second home to him.

Alignment: Prima (Initiate)
Participated in Battle? (link): Yep! Start off and all over that log assisting as per Prima's request; Speaking with Lea through Battlemind; Talk with Liege Maximo; Contacting Prima after talk with LM, and When Unicron Omnomnoms Everything
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): He'd be pretty torn about the decision. However, Prima said that becoming Initiate meant that he would be essentially linking himself with this world, and Ventus wouldn't go back on that. He said he'd help, after all. If things have changed though, he might considering going back as AU, because he wouldn't want to forget all the things that happened here, or the friends he's made.
Character Name: Hot Rod
Alignment: Prima (Initiate)
Participated in Battle? (link): Kick-off! and just about every other thread in there once Prima tells him to pass out weapons; And then when Unicron appears
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): Same deal as with Ven, since Prima told him the dealy with being an Initiate, he'd already made the decision to do what he could for this world. At least he knows that he'd been able to take down Unicron back home, so..?

Alignment: Primary: Nexus Prime; Secondary: Liege Maximo
Participated in Battle? (link) Down at the Core with Nexus and Solus!; Shooting at all the black things

no subject
Alignment: Vectorian
Participated in battle? Totally looked after the kids and made sure the new flier got away safely.:
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): He's gonna stay, man. He's dead back home, and even if it's possible to go back and live again he'd not want to risk like...breaking the universe or something. So he'll take his second chance here and help build this new Cybertron.
no subject
Character name: Lea (formerly Axel)
Alignment: Primary-Megatronic, Secondary- Trionic
Participated in battle?: Kicking and burning monster ass. Assisting Thundercracker when the illusion thing started up.
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): Canon AU (least til he gets snatched up to Kismet Loop). He's got promises to keep back there, but he refuses to give up all the memories and friends he's made here.
Character name: Jadewing
Alignment: Nexic
Participated in battle?: Reporting for duty. Casual danger dialog with Bulkhead while fighting Scraplets of evil
Go home/Stay (Canon/Canon AU/REMAIN): Jade will be staying. He'll miss his wingmates, but knows they'll eventually move on without him.
