TFA After Endgame

It's been half a year since the events of Endgame. Suspicious Decepticon activity at special places and the sudden lack of it where they swarmed once has alarmed the new Autobot intellegency. Optimus, together with Jazz, Ratchet, Bumblee, Bulkhead and Sari, visit these place to find what the Cons are planning.
It is for pulling one's wires out, though, because there are no clues. Known important hide-outs and bases either have been shaved from any interior or blown so there's nothing left of it. All the recent attacks came swiftly and hard, but without the violence the Cons usually launch - they do only enough damage to clear the way and then vanish after achieving whatever they wanted in the place.
This isn't the only thing worrying. Optimus has been having visions of Prowl for some days now, and wonders if he's going crazy. Even more fuel he gets for this assumption when he's attacked by Decepticon hiding in the shadows, just to hear him speaking with Prowl's voice and then to see the red-visored mech before falling unconscious. It puts an heavy strain on his friendship with Ratchet, Bulkhead, Sari and Bumblebee (except for Jazz who believes him), going so far he tells them they could certainly put him into the stockades if they deem it necessary. But this fight also clears up things between them and they agree to visit Prowl's grave to see that his body is still there, which it is.

At least until the power suddenly goes out and the body flickers into non-existence.

A. The Cons plan to use the Allspark to revive all the Decepticons ever fallen in the Great Wars. For this, though, they needed someone with the skills to manipulate the Allspark in the way only Prowl was able to.

B. Instead of reviving him, they put a solely for this purpose created mind in his body and established a forced connection to his mind in the Well of the Allspark. Enter Animated Barricade!

C. Jazz believed Optimus because he felt Prowl's presence back in this world, and even heard his voice several times.

D. The group eventually realizes what the Cons that the bot in Prowl's body is somebody completely different, but they also learn he's in control of Prowl's soul now. That puts them between a rock and a hard place because they could get their friend back - but would he wish for this? Or wish to be dead again? Especially Optimus needs to know.

I was gonna say, this almost sounds similar to what someone said on the prowlxlockdown comm about Prowl's spark being inside of Optimus. I don't know where they read it, but it was a TFA forum where they said it was planned in the fourth season for Prowl to come back, but in his G1 colors.

So they practically make Optimus with sparkling XD

When Prowl's spirit went to pull Optimus out of the explosion, his spark stayed inside after pulling him out.

I've been thinking of writing about it as a fic, but I need to work out the details and get some bunnies to bite.

Sure go ahead. I'd like to see what others think of the idea.
