Airazor didn’t know what to expect upon knocking.
She knew the name “Optimus”, and a part of her had an expectation that the individual she had in mind would be who she was meeting. But at the same time she knew better than that. This was the present after all, so the chances of her meeting other fellow Maximals or anyone remotely from that time was unlikely. When she heard the deep voice, that only confirmed her doubts. The voice was different, not the one her fractured mind had conjured up. So, taking a deep intake she stepped closer to the door so the sensor could pick up the movement, allowing the automated door to open.
There, Airazor found herself greeted by a mech of larger bulk and different coloring than she expected. But, the resemblance was definitely there…”Er, no, I am afraid you do not know me sir.” Airazor confirmed as she stepped into the Prime’s office, “My name is Airazor Optimus Prime, my origins are…complicated. I am from a faction called the Maximals, we operated much like your Autobots.” She gave the short version for the time being, but his question of being a new “Terran” puzzled her, “And pardon my being out of the loop, what exactly is a Terran?”

"Terrans are a new breed of Cybertronian's born on Earth. The first of our kind to be born since..." Optimus trailed off. He hoped things were better on Cybertron but so much craziness had been going on it was hard to tell.
It's true what the humans said, After the war ends, the hard work starts.
"I am not familiar with these...Maximals. Are they connected in some manner to Leige Maximo of the Thirteen Original Primes?"

"Since the war." Airazor finished the Prime's thought, at least having some knowledge of that. But to know there were other Cybertronians who called Earth their home was rather intriguing. Maybe one day she would meet these Terrans while also wondering if there was a link to them and her own kind...
Liege Maximo? There was a name she didn't recognize. Or if she had known it slipped her at the present; maybe one day she might actually recall more than she did now. That was the only downside to her amnesia, a constant frustration that she hoped to one day figure out how to heal in time. "I am afraid not." Once again came the hard part, the part she struggled to explain to Hot Rod who she still didn't know if he believed everything she said or not. "The Maximals...we are descended from the Autobot faction, a few centuries from now." She began, considering her words carefully. "Me and my kind come from the future, a time where technology is much more advanced, allowing us to travel space and time."
She must really sound out of her processor the more she spoke, "To put it simply, I am from the future stuck in the past, now living in the present."

Optimus was startled
"You're a time traveler? You come from the future?"
This...this was big. This had massive implications.
"...Please. Do not spread this around. This could cause controversy in the ranks."
"So if you've been stuck in the distant past what have you been doing this whole time?"

Airazor looked thoughtfully at the Prime, "I do not intend to make it common knowledge Optimus, but I will not promise that others may eventually discover it. My systems are like yours yet different at the same time. But I will do what I can." That was all she could really do. Physically the avian was like any other Cybertronian, but it sounded like she shared more in common with these Terrans than say Optimus or Hot Rod.
How future interactions with others of her kind would be interesting.
"Watching, waiting, there were others like me at one point and I had been hoping I might run into one of them, but no such luck." She explained, "But, I have also watched your war here on Earth unfold, helping covertly here and there. I consider Earth to have long since become my true home, so I have done what I can to look out for it."

Optimus took in the words of the mysterious transformer in front of him.
"If you're story is true Airazor I would be more than welcome to induct you into the Autobot ranks"
"We've recently been having problems with a massive Decepticon breakout and we could use all the help we can get. A flier such as yourself would be a significant asset."

When Airazor had revealed herself to Hot Rod, the last thing she would have ever expected would to be joining the ranks of any of the current factions. So, she was a little surprised by the offer, one she went silent for a bit to consider. With the rest of her fellow Maximals missing and a fractured memory, she had little else going for at the present. Unless something drastically changed in the near future which she doubted.
After a few minutes she finally nodded, "Alright Optimus, I will join the Autobots for the time being. I have little else in the way of knowing what happened to the rest of my friends, so it seems the best course of action at this moment." She finally agreed. What the future would hold for her from there would be interesting in the months to come.

Optimus offered his hand. "Welcome to the Autobots Airazor."
