Optimus lets Thomas and his friends stay/Midnight Sparkle (Bad Clone)'s death

In order to both protect theAllspark and secure Unicron'sdefeat, it was necessary for meto empty the vessel's contents.- Into where?- The Matrix of Leadership.As such, my own Spark can nolonger be separated from- the multitude of others within me.- Are you telling us...that you are now..one with the Allspark?That's what yousay when someone kicks the.To not return the Allspark to the wellwould be to prevent futuregenerations of new lifefrom existing on Cybertron.My quest must be completed.Optimus, I didn't return tosave a life only to losethe one I care most about.Ratchet's restored planets.he'll find a way to save you!We can turn to Vector Sigma,just like we did before.Because the Matrix must nowbe relinquished with the Allspark,it cannot be restoredor passed down to another.But while this may very wellmark the end of the age of Primes,leadership can be earnedwith or without the Matrix,and, in my view..you have each acted as a Prime.Well, I... never really hadthe best role models.As even Megatron hasdemonstrated on this day,every sentient being possessesthe capacity for change.I ask only this of you, fellow Autobotskeep fighting the noblest of fights.You can count on us to keep the peace.Above all,do not lament my absence..for in my Spark,I know that this is not the end..but merely a new beginning..simply put, another transformation.
