The Autobots has created a statue as a memorial of their great leader and hero, Ultra Magnus, who unfortunately didn't survive the trauma left by that hateful spy Shockwave. Everyone would come by the statue and mourn for their leader, sending tribute cyberflower and praying for the future of Autobots to be filled with peace and victory.

Most visitors have left Cybertron Square to retire for the night. Only one small red and purple figure still leaned against the foot of the statue. His optics dimmed with peace. It would have looked like he had accidentally fallen asleep while admiring the statue, if not for the visible tears line that has long dry up from his face. He was mourning for the death of his comrade, a friend, even lover.

Alpha Trion remembered how he stayed up near the berth of his ill-ridden lover, wishing comfort and peace for his dear Ultra Magnus. The latter would smile lovingly, although pain still coarsed through his frame.

"Don't worry, my sweetspark. I'll be okay after a few cycle of rest."

Liar.

*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:

"Alpha Trion? Sir... it's time to go..."

Alpha Trion jumped as he woke from his recollection, "Oh yes.... just.. let me stay here for a little while."

"Sir, you need to rest, you have been... been here for the whole mega-cycle(day)."

"It's has been that long?" Alpha Trion shaken up a bit, surveyed his surroundings to realise the sky has already darkened.

Alpha Trion thanked the guard as they continued their patrol. The older mech looked up at his lover's face, the mirror image of Ultra Magnus oversee the path ahead, brightened with determination, but he won't be able to look at Alpha's way ever again.

With one last look, the lone shadow finally stood up and dragged along his sadness back into his quarters.
