Once the kids were safely elsewhere, Optimus and the rest of the Autobot were completely stunned to see that the cons had broken into the Autobot base. Needing to protect their base, the Autobots separated to handle the intrusive Decepticons. All the while, due to the distraction, Wheeljack located requiem blaster, which was one of the things Megatron had demanded they steal, and once it was in hand, Jack returned to Megatron. But before Jack could give the stolen gift to Megatron or even get to Megatron, Smokescreen appeared out of seemingly nowhere and two began to fight.
Once Jack arrived at the scene, Smokescreen was doubly shocked, both at that wheeljack was there with the blaster and that the former Autobot was now a con, as was proven when Jack turned the blaster onto Megatron. Smokescreen was not liking where this seemed to be headed. With an evil smirk, Megatron made a comment about knowing exactly how to test this weapon. Smokescreen swallowed hard before he was blasted across the room with the powerful weapon. The powerful weapon blasted Smokescreen hard back towards a wall several feet away and Smokescreen hit with sickening thud and the bot let out a piercing scream which Megatron loved.
As smokescreen sat against the wall, in absolute agony and heavily damaged, Wheeljack looked to Megatron who still held the requiem blaster. Megatron was quite pleased with the utter destruction that the blaster could cause. Jack watched as Megatron continued to study the weapon for a bit before pointing the blaster at the broken Autobot. Megatron planned on annihilating the badly damaged bot, but before Megatron could pull the trigger, a puff of smoke appeared and so did Lancex.
Seeing how this bot, Lancex, was even hotter in person, Wheeljack licked his lips at the site of this new bot. Megatron gave an evil smile and offered Lancex 2 choices – 1) Surrender to Megatron, become his and wheeljack's mate and Smokescreen will be spared or 2) Smokescreen would perish and Megatron and Jack would forcibly take Lancex. Once offered, Megatron awaited an answer, as both were poison pills for Lancex, or so Lancex felt. But then Lancex felt something deep inside him, and his optics turned dark and Lancex responded that Megatron and his crony can frag off and go to the pits. Megatron evilly smirked, as he liked that Lancex had spunk and Megatron was eager to frag this bot with help from Wheeljack.
However, as Megatron drew closer, he raised the requiem blaster that he held in his hand, towards Lancex's right arm, and straight for Smokescreen. That was it, Lancex had had enough Lancex then raised his right hand and uttered an oath that he knew by heart, "I'm the bone of my blade (a magic circle appeared in front of Lancex and nullified the beam shot) fire in my energon and strength in my spark (Megatron and wheeljack were shocked and the two ran towards Lancex) unknown to life and death (now smokescreen was shocked, and he wondered why Lancex was speaking like this) I have created over 1,000 blades, I will protect all I loved and cherished (Megatron and Jack were about to reach Lancex)" Lancex, seeing he was about to be captured, yelled out the last phrase loudly and with emphasis, "this is my resolved, unlimited blade works."
As Lancex finished his oath, the bot spread out his arms and a powerful light enveloped him. The same light also enveloped Megatron, Wheeljack, and Smokescreen. And once the light died down, it appeared that the four bots were gone. And that was all the others saw when they finally reached the area. They could only hope things were going well.
