Synopsis
The Decepticons have invaded Autobot City, smashing its defenses with their attacks. In a last desperate bid, Optimus Prime carves a path through the Decepticon forces and heads directly for Megatron. Following a mighty clash between the two leaders, Megatron falls and his army begin a retreat. The Autobots, however, have no cause for celebration as Optimus Prime has also perished, passing on the Matrix of Leadership to a new bearer, even as a terrifying new threat is coming to bear on them.

Notes
- This is the first episode of 2014.
- This event is a retelling of a portion of The Transformers: The Movie, specifically Optimus Prime's iconic charge through the Decepticons, his combat with Megatron, and his death. The "new and terrifying enemy" mentioned in the epilogue is presumably Unicron.
- The prior event "One Shall Fall..." also involves Optimus falling at Megatron's hands during a battle in Autobot City.
- Unusually for a raid event, Optimus Prime is an evolution card.
- One of Optimus Prime's evolution levels features Soundwave colored red, and Ramjet and a non-conehead Seeker similarly mis-colored, while Megatron's robot-mode card has him standing over a green Optimus Prime.
- Optimus Prime dies. Again.
- Brawn and Prowl are present for the Battle of Autobot City, but they were killed on the shuttle that the Decepticons infiltrated. Perhaps Brawn DID survive, but it doesn't explain Prowl's presence.
