In the shadowed concrete silence of the parking garage, Mirage waits, bound by Optimus Prime’s directive. While Arcee, Bumblebee, and Prime hunt the Transwarp Key, seven Earth-years have bled into restless monotony.

Mirage stirs, and a deep, contented purr vibrates from his core, savoring the rare, tender contact.
