'We are the world.'
Remnants of the planet Cybertron have been gathered from around the globe. In memory of their former home the Autobots plan to make a gravesite from the parts, until an accidental touch between the Matrix of Leadership and a Cybertron fragment bring forth other ideas. Together they create a new Cybertronian, one who is human to all appearances but not at all beneath the skin. 'Clark' has the ability to transform between human, vehicle, and Cybertronian form, and he has the mindset of a newborn child. He gives hope to the Autobots that their race will continue as the humans do.
But for every light there is a shadow. The Decepticons have their own hope as well. If they cannot use Clark to revive their lost leader Megatron, they can at least use him as blueprints for a new resurrection.
