Exiles (2014)
“Override had won, but she knew she had not seen the last of Ransack’s subversion. She kept a close eye on Ransack, and he did the same to her. He was not yet powerful enough to challenge her, and both of them knew it. They both also knew that he soon would be. The coming and going of the Autobots had broken open the simmering resentments and feuds between different factions of Velocitronians, and Override knew that the worsening resource shortages would only accelerate the rate at which her bot...s became Ransack’s bots.
She looked up at the sun, which was looming reddish and huge over the mountains. How much longer did they have?

Or, they said with a collective shrug, it might begin its final expansion right now.
Velocitronians had never turned much of their attention to astronomy.MoreLess
