#watching all his citizens slowly perish within him was TRAUMATIZING
Note
Funny that doesn't make sense but giving it regardless cuz it wouldn't leave me alone
Mars: How much disaster i would cause by leaving the system and going back to Cybertron?
Earth: Not much i think considering Moon has bigger role? Well.. Scientists would flip a lid surely.. And NASA would cry over their rovers i assume
Mars: Welp. Bye then. Btw i am telling father on you you not dealing with Unmaker and being with in triangle
Moon: Tattletale! Also you had the same opportunity as i to get rid of the Unmaker you coward!
Mars: Can't hear you!
Unicron: One spawn of my brother less but humans screeching imminent eugh
I imagine that Mars did wander off at some point. I imagine it happened several times after he outed his presence to the trio. The first time he wandered off was to redirect a few asteroids since Moon couldn't move without fragging up Earth's tides. The second time he wandered was to assess an alien ship that passed by. He never did determine the species, but it wasn't Cybertronian, so it was not his problem. However the third time he wandered off, it was FAR more serious.
He certainly wouldn't be waltzing off when NASA was in operation. But the time he did saunter off with a serious goal in mind was quite likely a few centuries before humanity figured out that space was a viable option. Mars may be the aloof cat dad of the group, but he is well aware of what he is guarding. The Unmaker is a serious threat, and Pluto throwing an absolute fit over pods from Cybertron heading straight to Earth certainly didn't ease him. Seeing the relics within the pods only served to make Mars far more willing to wander off to seek aid. He's not an idiot. He can recognize the touch of Primes on just about anything, as can all Titans.
Mars was the one to travel back in the direction of Cybertron in time to witness the effects of the war. Neither he nor those in Earth's solar system were aware of the war. But seeing the state of his planet would give him a VERY good reason to gather up any survivors possible. Unfortunately there wasn't much for him to salvage, but he returned to Earth's solar system with a warning.
Mars: Earth, Moon, listen to me.
Moon & Earth: ???
Mars: War has ravaged Cybertron. Only the husk of Primus remains.
Moon: Impossible-!
Mars: No, I saw it. The Allspark is missing and none of Primus's children are anywhere to be seen. I suspect they have fled.
Earth: What does that mean?
Mars: You are likely going to get a visit from your cousins soon enough.
Moon: Primus below, this is going to be a disaster.
Mars: It will be. And if the Allspark is not retrieved within a few centuries, I will gather it myself. I will not stand for our kind to extinguish when a few of us yet live.
Yes, Mars is usually very chill. But after the death of his citizens, he fears extinction above all else. If Optimus had failed to gather the Allspark, Mars would have left to get it himself and probably turned himself into a living hotspot until SOMEONE fixed Cybertron and made it habitable again.
