Meanwhile in a small town a woman named Shayna Lockhart was eating in a fastfood place, When a crowd of people who had just left a ball game came in and Shayna quickly paied for her meal and left, Wanting to leave as quickly as possible because the noise was causing her to feel sensory overload.

She put in her earbuds and started listening to music to calm herself down as she walked home, she had to pass through a forest trail on the way to her house, once there she decided to relax and watch some anime.

Shayna was enjoying herself when suddenly the power went out and she heard a crash, So went out to investigate.

Upon getting to where the sound had come from she saw that a transformer had been knocked down and the power lines knocked loose, And it looked like it had been down by something big.

"Well this isn't creepy at all." Shayna told herself as she continued to look around with her flashlight since it was dark.

Then she heard something a bit farther ahead and ran walked towards the source of the noise, only to almost drop her flashlight when she saw a giant purple robot that upon seeing her aimed it's gun at her.

Shayna took off running just barley avoiding the blast, but the robot was gaining on her fast.


Meanwhile Starscream was trying to figure out where he was having forgotten to look at the space bridge cornets when he punched them in having been too concerned with being shot at and losing his friend to have paied attention.

The seeker was currently trying to figure out how far he was from the scrapyard and what the quickest route there was, When he heard screaming and flew off in the direction it was coming from.

Once landing he was greeted with the sight of a human female being chased by a vehicon, So without thinking he transformed back to his bot mode and started fighting the vehicon to intervene.

"Run!" Starscream called to the human who didn't have to be told twice, As he continued to fight the vehicon.

Shayna watched the two robots fight each other having gotta to a safe distance, And saw the one who was trying to help her take a hit to his face then get shot in the wing before managing to beat the one who attacked her, Then limping off before she could get back there to thank him.

Shayna when back to her house since it was now 11:00pm, she decided to call it a night still processing what she had just witnessed.


Starscream managed to limp to a cave he found in the forest where he decided to rest, the vehicon had been surprising strong and now poor Starscream had more then a few dents and an injured wing.

"Guess I won't be flying for awhile." The seeker groaned to himself knowing his mission was going to be delayed, Until his wing healed he would have to travel on foot. "What else can go wrong?"

Just then it thunder and started pouring rain.

"I was being sarcastic." Starscream whined as he facepalmed.

Then seeing that he wouldn't be going anywhere in that downpour Starscream decided to try to recharge there for the night, Nothing was working out for him.

The seeker decided to stay on alert in case that vehicon hadn't been the only Decepticon in the area, knowing they'd probably be after that drive he had wanting access to Teletraan-1.

Starscream knew there was nothing he could do until the rain let up so he let himself drift off into sleep mode, He would figure out his next move in the morning.


Meanwhile on a ship in Earth's orbit.

"AAHHH!!!" A red mech screamed in agony as a Decepticon vehicon shocked him with an energon prob.

"It amazing how long your holding out." Said a Decepticon he recognized as Barricade. "I thought for sure you would talk to save your finish you good for nothing turncoat."

Knock Out just glared at the police car trying to ignore the pain that was currently surging through his body, he had survived being shot in the chest only to be taken prisoner by the Decepticons and was now on one of their ships in shackles hanging from the ceiling by his servos.

"Now I'll ask you again where is that drive?!" Barricade hissed in Knock Out's audio receptors.

"Bite me." Knock Out quipped trying to hide how afraid he was and how much pain he was in, The Decepticons had repaired him only enough to keep him alive so they could get the information they wanted.

"Wrong answer!" Barricade growled at the red medic as he smacked him hard across the faceplates then continued to beat the scrap out of him.

"Enough we don't want the prisoner to offline before we get the information we need from him." Said Obsidian.

"Rest him then we'll try again." Added Strika, as they left the room.

Knock Out watched them go, Then let his body go slack as he allowed himself to go into stasis his whole frame hurt and all he wanted to do was recharge.


On the main part of the ship Barricade, Strika and Obsidian were talking to another Descriptcon named Warhead who was a triple changer with a dark green color scheme and wings on his back.

"I'm sure the Autobots are planning to contact their friends on Earth." Obsidian told the others.

"Then we'll have to go after them." Strika suggested.

"I'll do it." Warhead agreed. "It'll be fun to scrap something you know I was almost Megatron's second in command."

"OK once you locate where the Autobot's Earth base of operations is report back to us and we'll call in a strike on them." Barricade told Warhead before he took a space bridge to Earth.

Then he came out near an army base where he scanned a jet and then a sports car he saw driving by.

Then Warhead transformed into a dark green version of the car and drove off to look for any leads on where the Autobots might be.

To Be Continued.
