Could Be Worse by Mimkana

Summary
The Stunticons stay together, for better and for worse. Mostly for worse. Their new commander decides to do something about it, which is how Breakdown finds himself partnered with a rather eccentric, and dangerous, medic.
And if there's one thing Breakdown loves, it's danger. How fortunate that there will be plenty of it, as their new unit stumbles into a dark plot that threatens not only them, but all of Cybertron!
Meanwhile, Knock Out finds himself dragged into the increasingly unstable family dynamics of the Stunticons. As he struggles between his self-centered impulses and keeping himself out of trouble, he discovers that maybe having a paranoid thrill-seeking scout around isn’t so bad after all.

Echoes of a Fallen Prime by OtomeGirl4Ever
Fandoms: Transformers - All Media Types, Transformers One (2024)

Summary
Before he was Megatron, he was D-16 — a young mech who believed in the Decepticon cause as Megatronus Prime envisioned it. He trained under Starscream, the Prime’s right hand and second-in-command, a brilliant strategist who shaped D-16 into something greater than a soldier.
Then Megatronus Prime died.
Starscream vanished.
And D-16 felt that loss like a fracture in his spark.
Time passed. D-16 became Megatron. The war consumed Cybertron. Ideals twisted. The Decepticons became something harsher, something unrecognizable.
Until the Autobots discover the long-lost flagship of Megatronus Prime — and inside it, sealed in stasis, they find Starscream. Alive.
Now awakened under Autobot care, Starscream learns the truth: Optimus Prime leads, the war rages, and the cause he helped build has been corrupted. As he begins aiding the new Prime, old loyalties collide with present realities.
When Megatron discovers Starscream lives — and stands beside Optimus — the past resurfaces in full force.
Megatron already lost one Prime.He will not lose his mentor to Optimus Prime.NEVER.

The Turning Point by OtomeGirl4Ever

Summary
In war, victory is rarely decided by strength alone. Sometimes, it takes a single report, a single realization, to change everything.
When Starscream delivers news that forces Megatron to confront the cost of his own leadership, the Decepticon cause begins to shift. Reckless assaults give way to calculated strikes. Orders become discussions. Officers are heard instead of silenced. The change is subtle—but undeniable.
The Autobots notice the difference immediately. Battles grow harder. Traps become rarer. The Decepticons begin to win not through brutality, but through patience and precision. No one understands why Megatron has changed, and the Decepticons themselves have no intention of revealing the truth.
Because they know what the Autobots do not: the war turned the day Megatron chose to change.

The first thing you saw was trees, which was fairly strange - considering that you were not one for the outdoors. Next were the silver claws, red missile, and your new metal arm. This only gave you more questions.

What’re These Parts? by youngfella76

Summary
Clay settled in, heart rate steady. Years of hunting taught him patience, and even when sweat rolled down his back and bugs chewed at his neck, he didn’t move. Just lined up the crosshairs. Whispered under his breath. “Come on now…”
Thunder cracked. But not from the sky. Metal was smoking, bones broke, muscle and skin tore, then suddenly he awoke something new.

Queen of the Swarm by OtomeGirl4Ever

Summary
The transmission lasts only twelve seconds.
A Vehicon scout patrolling the dead regions of Cybertron captures footage of a lone Insecticon before its signal abruptly cuts to static. The creature is unlike the feral drones Megatron once commanded — larger, armored differently, moving with purpose instead of hunger. Not lost. Not wandering.
Hunting.
When Airachnid is summoned to the Nemesis, she expects punishment for her past failures. Instead, Megatron demands answers. The Decepticons have encountered wild Insecticons before, but never one that behaved like this — disciplined, territorial, and utterly unafraid.
Airachnid recognizes the signs immediately. A lone soldier does not roam without reason. Not in the wilds. Not unless it belongs to something greater.
Somewhere in Cybertron’s forgotten wastelands, a swarm has formed beyond Decepticon control. It does not answer to Megatron. It does not seek alliance. And if this was only a scout, then something far more dangerous waits at the center of its territory.
Something that does not wish to be found.A Queen,a real Queen.

Summary
"One of Starscream’s more sinister talents was to immediately assess weaknesses in his enemies; Even his fellow Decepticons found it difficult to hide their insecurities from his keen optics. Like a Sharkticon to a wounded Singlehorn, he sensed the emptiness within Knock Out. Something deep within the personable-looking medic bot was broken, as if a piece of his spark had been extinguished. His raw vulnerability was as irresistible as freshly spilled Energon to the sly seeker."
This fanfiction deals with the G1, Prime, and Armada continuities and the main characters are Knock Out and G1 Starcream. This story takes place directly after Breakdown's death in the Prime universe and prior to Starscream's coronation.

THE FORM by IgniaRaw

Summary
In a neon-drenched, futuristic 1985, the war between Autobots and Decepticons has reached an uneasy silence on Earth.
Then an experimental compound changes everything.
A small group of Cybertronians are forced into unstable human forms, stranded in fragile flesh while their sparks still burn mechanical and bright. The transformation was supposed to be temporary. Controlled. Logical.
It isn’t.
As old rivals are trapped in bodies that feel too soft, too emotional, too vulnerable, long-buried tensions resurface in unexpected ways. Attraction blurs into hostility. Loyalty tangles with desire. Pride refuses to adapt.
And somewhere between Autobot diplomacy and Decepticon pride, one truth becomes impossible to ignore:
They may have learned how to imitate humanity.
But humanity is starting to change them back.

Summary
With the emberstone being shattered, it's up to the Autobots and the Malto family to find the missing pieces and put the stone back together; while picking up the remaining trails that GHOST left behind, and solving the various disappearances of Cybertronians. A new danger lurks in the shadows, watching their every move. Join as a new cast of characters are revealed along the adventure, relationships are tested; old and new, and new stakes at hand!
This is my take on rewriting Earthspark Seasons 2 and 3! There will be original characters but the story will remained centric to its canon cast. Follow my Tumblr for designs and updates of the story along the way! :)

Summary
"Don’t be in such a hurry, cyberninja."
The voice was barely more than a whisper, but it boomed and echoed within his audio receptors nevertheless.
"I have use for you yet. Let us meet soon."
With a final flash of purple, the world dissolved around Prowl in a turbulent storm of energy. His spark felt battered, pulled apart and stitched back together, his awareness dissolving into nothing more than a pinprick of panic as everything came to a screeching halt.
And Prowl felt."or; TFA Prowl is reincarnated into the world of TFP. He tries to make the best of his second chance at life, but he's not so sure it's a good thing, after all.
