Combining with the matrix, the weapon formed a shield around the prime. Megatron and Lillith were blown back, and Darkside hit a wall of light-side energy. Optimus Prime had fully awoken, and remembered his place as one of the original thirteen. His courage was fueling this new weapon, and right now he had seen enough death.

Darkside was very, VERY alarmed by this. Taking a step back in semi horror, it is almost like he thought Optimus was someone else. He quickly calms down, and bombards that shield with great telekinetic strikes.
