On the Nemesis, Starscream was standing with Soundwave, confessing his sins to the Decepticons surveillance chief.
"I have been a fool, made mistakes, monumental ones. I now realize that I was never destined to be a leader or even an equal partner, and I'm at peace with that. I have gained a clear understanding of my place in this universe, of who I am, of who I was always meant to be, Starscream, Second-in-command, humble servant to Lord Megatron. Thank you for listening, Soundwave."
He walks out of the room, to the bridge where Megatron and Airachnid were talking.
"Is this true?" Megatron asked the Arachnicon.
"Starscream never mentioned it," she answered.
"If he's up to his old tricks, I shall grind him into powder," Megatron said as he clenched his fist.
Starscream cleared his throat, telling them that he's there.
"Starscream," Megatron growled as he turned around.
"Lord Megatron, please excuse Airachnid's impertinence. Now what was it that I allegedly failed to mention?" Starscream asked nervously.
"The harbinger," Megatron responded, causing Starscream to gasp nervously.
"What about it?" Starscream asked.
"Eons ago, a Decepticon transport crash landed on this planet," Airachnid began explaining.
"Oh, please. Common knowledge. I scoured the crash site when we first arrived on Earth," Starscream scoffed.
"Then I presume you recovered the experimental weapon prototype the harbinger had been transporting," Airachnid guessed, earning a gasp from Starscream.
"Where is the crash site?" Megatron asked.
"It was never logged into your ship's database," Airachnid answered on Starscream's behalf.
"You failed to record the coordinates of a Decepticon transport?!" Megatron exclaimed with disbelief.
"An oversight, Master. But I noted it's exact location," Starscream defended as he pointed to his own head.
"Then you can lead Airachnid there so that she may retrieve the prototype for me," Megatron said as he began to walk away.
"My personal native guide, how delightful," Airachnid remarked sarcastically.
Arcee was standing on top of the Autobot base standing near a pile of rocks that the Autobots, including her sister made for a graveside for Cliffjumper. Arcee was thinking about her Deceased partner for a while.
"Hey, partner, heck of a view you got up here. If there's even a small chance your spark is out there listening, well, we could really use you, Cliff. Seems like every day another Decepticon arrives on the scene. We're outnumbered and outgunned. Yeah, I know what you'd say, I bet chrome does as well, 'Sounds like a fair fight.' Well if that's the world we live in, so be it. I just want you to know… I haven't given up. I'm gonna find the 'Con who took you from us," she promised.
In a forest, an invisible force began to raise a patch of dirt off the ground. The invisible force was the jets on a plane that happened to be Starscream. When he was a few feet above the ground, he transformed into his robot form. Airachnid followed suite not long after him. Starscream couldn't help but frown upon Airachnid's choice of alternate mode.
"Your chosen vehicle mode lacks thrust," Starscream commented on her alternate mode as she transformed into her robot form.
"Are you going to preen, or are you going to guide?" She asked him.
"I will reveal the exact location of the harbinger when you tell me what exactly we're looking for," he retorted, stepping closer to her.
"That information is need-to-know, and right now you don't," she answered coolly.
"Oh, you would do well to respect me, Airachnid. Before I joined Megatron, I was a scientist in charge of guarding a batch of Dark Energon on Trypticon station during the war before joining Megatron near the final days of the war where I became an air commander of a squadron of Energon seekers," Starscream boasted proudly.
"On cybertron. And how many eons ago was that?" She asked him, knowing the answer.
"Just recently, I personally vanquished one of Optimus Prime's fiercest warriors, Cliffjumper," Starscream smirked, boasting proudly.
"You snuffed an Autobot?" Airachnid exclaimed, clearly impressed.
"Yes, I did. Without mercy," Starscream nodded in confirmation.
"Oh. Even Megatron showed you mercy when he planned to terminate you at the mine," Airachnid recalled.
"What?! He told you about that?!" Starscream gasped.
"We talk," Airachnid answered.
"The wreckage lies just beneath where we stand. I will need to find a point of entry," Starscream said, only to have Airachnid to drill a hole herself with her spider claws, "Showoff."
The sound of rapid metal clanging echoed around the abandoned Harbinger. Airachnid walked ahead on the roof with the help of her spider legs. Starscream just strolled along behind her. He was still not happy about Arachnid being in charge. Honestly, he just wished things returned to the way they were.
"Suit yourself. I conducted a thorough search of this husk years ago," Starscream scoffed before seeing Airachnid activating the computer systems, "What are you doing?"
"Accessing the cargo manifest, or didn't you do that during your thorough search?" She answered.
"Idiot. The ship's systems haven't been activated for eons. The Autobots could detect its energy signature," Starscream protested.
"Ah, here it is. Section 23," Airachnid said, accessing the ship's computer database.
Starscream was right about the Autobots detecting the ship's Energon signature. The computers inside Autobot Outpost Omega One beeped to alert the occupants inside of its latest find. Everyone that was present at the time as Optimus, Ratchet, Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Arcee and her twin sister, Chromette were in the main room. Optimus approached the medic.
"Optimus, our scanners have detected - Decepticon energy profile, but its ancient," Ratchet told the Prime.
"The past has a way of catching up to the present, Ratchet," Optimus told him.
Arachnid scurried around the ship looking for Section 23. Starscream was content with just strolling around behind them. He knew what they were going to find.
"Section 23 should be right about…here?" Airachnid finished in confusion, as she saw a wall of dirt in front of her instead of what was supposed to be in front of her, "The ship just ends. It must have broken in half during the crash."
"Or in the air. If you performed actual research, you would have learned that an Autobot battalion shot the harbinger out of the sky," Starscream scoffed.
"How far is the other half?" Airachnid asked impatiently.
"I'm afraid that information is need-to-know," he said as he used Airachnid's earlier word against her.
That comment pissed her off so much, that she hissed as she shot her spider webs at him causing him to be bound in sticky webs. "What are you-" he started.
"You're trying to make me look like a fool before Megatron, have me return empty-handed while you locate that weapon yourself," she said accusing him, knowing him all too well.
"How dare you accuse me?!" You are nothing but a scavenger, an opportunist!" He spat at the Arachnicon.
"Aren't you one to talk?" She retorted.
Perhaps. But I have changed. Seen the error of my ways. I live to serve Megatron now," Starscream declared.
"You won't live to serve anyone if you don't tell me where to find the rest of this ship. Now," she threatened.
"A few clicks north of here, through a stone arch," he finally revealed, "Now release me."
"When I have the weapon in hand, that is if I can find my way back without my guide," she tormented as she walked away.
"This is not funny, Airachnid. Come back here right now and cut me loose! Starscream called after her in despair, "Airachnid, that is an order! I am your commanding officer!"
As Airachnid walked through a corridor, she chucked and then gasped as she saw Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Arcee and Chromette standing before her.
"Airachnid!" Arcee growled.
"Surrender," Optimus threatened very dangerously.
Airachnid just growled at him and scurried away. Arcee chased after her.
"Airachnid, you traitor!" Starscream yelled as he saw the Arachnicon drill her way through the dirt wall. He didn't take much notice of the presence of his Autobot enemies. Not even as Arcee sprinted past him. Optimus ran desperately in an attempt to catch up with her as Arcee ran after her nemesis through the hole.
"Arcee! Wait!" Optimus called.
Arcee aimed her blaster around looking for Airachnid only for her to the Arachnicon to be seen nowhere. She then heard the familiar sound Airachnid would make as she drilled her way to the surface. However, she was too late to move out of the way.
"Arcee!" Airachnid greeted dryly.
"I didn't peg you for re-signing with the Decepticons," Arcee remarked as she charged at Airachnid with her arm blades out and free.
"A temporary arrangement, Arcee," Airachnid told her and dodged the blue femme's swings.
Arcee went to kick at Airachnid, one of Airachnid's spider claws grabbed her ankle and slammed her face-first into the ground like a rag doll before throwing her in the air. Just like a rag doll. Arcee didn't give up that easy. Her need to avenge Tailgate fuelled her every action in this fight with Airachnid. Yelling out in determination, Arcee charged at her enemy once again. However, Arcee soon found herself in another predicament, A life-threatening predicament. Airachnid grabbed Arcee's attack arm then wrapped her free normal arm around her neck tightly. Arcee tried to fight. But it was useless. She was trapped.
"Speaking of, add any more deceased partners to your growing list? How about your sister?" Airachnid tormented.
"Airachnid, release her!" Optimus said charging at the Arachnicon aiming his ion cannon at her, not wanting to get sliced and diced, Airachnid threw Arcee to the side like scrap. Chromette approached her sister as Optimus started shooting at the retreating Airachnid in her alternate mode.
Optimus deactivated his blaster and turned to the blue femme, "Arcee, you know better than to engage the enemy alone," he began reprimanding.
"Sis, Optimus is right, you shouldn't go after her without backup," Chromette agreed with Optimus.
"Not her," Arcee said, "Not what after she did to tailgate and what she threatened to do to you, Chrome, when she captured me all those centuries years ago." She began to have a flashback of when Airachnid killed Tailgate, "She will pay," she growled.
"Revenge will not bring back those we lost. Is that understood?" Optimus asked her.
"Sis, she probably just said that to get you to break you, mentally," Chromette said.
Optimus and the twins turned around and saw Bulkhead and Bumblebee approaching with their latest captive all tied up and bound courtesy of Airachnid, "Move it," Bulkhead said, escorting Starscream.
"No need to use force," Starscream spat before Bulkhead threw him onto his knees and he looked up to Optimus, Arcee and Chromette with fear in his optics, "I'll tell you anything you want to know."
"Is that right?" Bulkhead laughed. "And what do you want in return?"
"I want to be on your side," Starscream declared.
Optimus, Arcee and Chromette looked at each other, surprise lacing into their optics. They would never expect a highly-ranked Decepticon to want to join them. Their mortal enemies. The Autobots. Then again, Megatron is ruthless and cruel. In fact, they were surprised that not many Decepticons had changed sides or declared neutrality before.
"On our side? Yeah right! And I've been lobbing with the Fallen!" Bulkhead scoffed sarcastically.
"You wouldn't betray the Decepticons," Arcee said.
"Agreed, you would never betray the decepticons," Chromette told him, "Why would you say that?"
"Wouldn't I? What have they done for me lately besides humiliate me? Spy on me? Demote me? Megatron tried to extinguish my spark in cold blood! Then he have all but replaced me traitorous, wretched Airachnid! She abandoned me! Left me for scrap! So why not rat them out?" Starscream shot back.
Optimus, Bulkhead, Arcee and Chromette walked away to discuss what Starscream just said, while Bumblebee stayed with Starscream to guard him as he aimed his blaster at him.
"He's telling the truth about Megatron trying to scrap him. I saw it with my own eyes," Arcee said.
"Was that when you and Jack were stuck in the mine with Bulkhead and Miko?" Chromette asked her sister.
"You're not saying you actually trust Starscream?" Bulkhead asked the femme.
"Yes it was, Chrome," Arcee said, answering her question, before turning to Bulkhead, "Trust him? Never. But this may be the one time our objectives align."
"You're right be wary, Bulkhead," Optimus said, "But I agree with Arcee."
"I agree with her as well," Chromette said, "We need a flier on team prime as they are scattered across the stars, but I would personally love it if Jetfire or any of the Arielbots came to Earth and joined us."
As Airachnid flew, in her alternate mode, she searched for the stone arch Starscream told her about. She transformed as she entered the Harbinger and scurried around to look for the experimental weapon that the crashed ship was transporting, she approached a storage compartments, she ripped it open and saw a long staff with sharp points at both ends, "Be still, my beating spark," she said as she grabbed the weapon, she turned around and the weapon extended at both ends before activating it.
The Autobots arrived near the harbinger's other half in their alternate modes, Starscream was placed in Optimus's trailer from his Subspace storage pocket dimension and they soon transformed
"What do you know?" Bulkhead asked rhetorically.
"Could still be a trap," Arcee reminded the Wrecker.
"Agreed, but let's hope not," Chromette said.
Behind them, they heard the familiar sound of a Cybertronian transforming. They turned around and saw that Optimus had disconnected himself from the trailer and transformed into his robot form, "Starscream's loyalty to Megatron has always been questionable," Optimus said, "If he has truly split from the Decepticons, our prisoner's knowledge of their agendas could make him a valuable ally."
"You don't mean permanently, as in keys to the base and everything?" Bulkhead sputtered.
"However unlikely that scenario, every sentient being deserves an opportunity for redemption," Optimus went on.
"Even Bot killers? Even Airachnid?" Arcee asked.
"Sis, calm down, I think he's not talking about her, just listen to what he has to say," Chromette told her twin.
"Arcee, Chromette is right, I'm not talking about Airachnid but without that hope, we may bever achieve lasting peace," Optimus answered gravely.
"Rise and shine, Screamy," Bulkhead remarked as he opened the trailer and dragged Starscream out.
"We're here," Arcee told the seeker, "Where's the ship?"
Starscream sat on the ground and looked around before answering, "It's through the arch, among the stones."
"Bulkhead, Bumblebee, Chromette, you're with me," Optimus said before approaching the blue femme, "Arcee, remain with our prisoner."
He walked away, and she walked towards him, "Optimus, please." he turned around and looked at her, "For Tailgate."
"Your desire to avenge Tailgate will only continue to cloud your judgement," he said.
"Sis, Prime's right, its best if you stay here while we scope it out," Chromette said before following Optimus.
Arcee looked at them before hearing Starscream complaining, and looked at him, "Is the clamp really necessary? I promise to not run away. It's really giving me a crick."
She approached him, "I can shove you back in the trailer," the femme threatened, causing him to moan in disappointment.
"Be alert. Airachnid is known to attack from below ground," Optimus warned with his battle mask activated.
"Right," Bulkhead said as they scouted the area with their blasters activated and aiming them around as they approached the Harbinger.
Optimus, Bumblebee, Bulkhead and Chromette heard the noise from the weapon looked up and saw Airachnid aiming the weapon and fired it at them, luckily the four Autobots dodged the beam of light from the experimental weapon before the Prime started shooting at her with the weapon, she evaded the shots from Optimus' ion cannon and landed on the side of the harbinger and kept evading his blaster fire by hopping backwards.
"I got her," Bulkhead exclaimed as he fired his own shot…only to become the first victim of the weapon and was frozen in place.
"The Immobilizer, true to its name," Airachnid said, tormenting them, "I will soon finally snuff out your spark, Chromette, like I threatened your sister I would do all those years ago." She then aimed it at the Autobot femme, who dodged it.
"I'm not really so bad, you know. Megatron, he's the evil one," Starscream said as Arcee was pacing in front of him.
"Tell it to someone who cares," she snapped at him.
"Like whom, Airachnid? What I wouldn't do to get my hands around her wretched throat," he snarled.
"So, we can agree on one thing," Arcee said.
"Oh, you have no idea. She showed up one day, and the next thing you know, she's acting like she runs the place. She whispered lies into Megatron's ear, maneuvered to rob me of my rightful place," he said with anger.
"Well, she terminated my partner," Arcee growled.
"What?! She's taking credit for scrapping him now, too? That was my doing?" He blurted, causing her optics to widen.
"What? You weren't there," she recalled.
"Of course I wasn't. I don't know what I was thinking," Starscream chuckled nervously.
"Who are you talking about?" She demanded.
"No one. Who are you talking about?" Starscream asked in confusion.
"Tailgate," she answered.
"Who's Tailgate?" He asked her.
Her optics widen, realizing that Starscream was the one that killed her partner, six months ago, "You were the one. You extinguished Cliffjumper."
"Cliffjumper?!" Starscream shrieked and began to whimper as she went into a fighting stance, "No! No, no no. You misunderstand. It wasn't like you think. The troopers mortally wounded him. I was trying to help Cliffjumper. Put him out of his misery. He begged me to."
Arcee knew he was lying as that wasn't the Cliffjumper she and Chromette knew, so she growled before kicking him away from her and jumped in front of him. "Okay, okay, it was a mistake! I've made many, but I've changed!" Starscream said, practically sobbing, "You wouldn't terminate a defenseless prisoner, would you?"
She didn't answer and removed the key to Starscream's cuffs from her subspace storage pocket dimension and threw it to the ground. Her cold hard gaze never left the trembling Decepticon, who only looked up to her in surprise. "What, what is that?" He asked her.
"The key to your cuffs," she answered harshly.
"What for?" He whimpered.
"Cliff would have given you a fighting chance," Arcee pointed out.
"No, please! I don't want to! What's past is past. I'm one of you now," he objected as she aimed her blasters at the seeker as he began to put on an unconvincing performance of crying, "No! No! Please! No!"
"Take it!" Arcee yelled.
Starscream picked up the key but soon dropped it in fear, "You're pathetic," she said, deactivating her left blaster and knelt down to pick the key up, only for Starscream to chuckle and scratch her in her mid-section with his sharp digits, she widened her optics as he did this and dropped the key to the ground beneath her feet. Gasping and moaning in pain, she took a few shaky steps away from Starscream. Stab-wound deep scratches had made its mark on her frame. The blue liquid substance known as Energon already began leaking out of her wound.
She fell to her knees as Starscream picked up the key and inserted it into his cuffs which fell to the ground as he removed them, "Something wrong, Arcee? I thought you wanted a fight," Starscream tormented.
For Optimus, Bumblebee and Chromette, things weren't looking good for them either. Neither of them were in the best position to battle Airachnid. Especially since she had the Immobilizer in her possession and she has already proven its effectiveness by immobilizing Bulkhead.
First, Airachnid made an attempt to immobilize Bumblebee, who darted out of the way and hid behind another rock to avoid meeting Bulkhead's tragic fate. In retaliation, she went for Optimus. He, too, flipped behind a rock. Taking his opportunity, he shot at her. Airachnid was knocked back into the air. But she quickly recovered from her shock by regaining her footing and returning fire.
Optimus aimed his blaster at Airachnid only to see that the Arachnicon was nowhere to be seen, Bumblebee and Chromette approached Optimus as they all heard the sound of Airachnid drilling behind them and aimed the Immobilizer at Chromette, "Freeze!" Optimus quickly noticed this and jumped in front of her leaving the prime motionless, Bumblebee and Chromette started shooting at the Arachnicon with their blasters in different directions. She fired on Bumblebee but he missed it by sheer luck.
Arcee was panting as she fought Starscream with her blades deployed, she was using them as shields as Starscream approached her, trying to slash her with his servos, he chuckled as he kept approaching her only for her to kick him away. "You're tougher to scrap than your former partner," Starscream complimented as Arcee tightly clutched the wound with Energon seeping from the stab marks, "At least, the one I scrapped. Was Tailgate weak like Cliffjumper?"
"Just keep talking, Starscream," Arcee threatened and with those words said, Arcee took a swipe at Starscream with one of her blades from her arms.
Bumblebee and Chromette were constantly on the move. Hiding behind rocks to fire at Airachnid and shield themselves. And dodging around to avoid her shots. Along the way, they had to do with Airachnid constantly taunting them.
"Tell me, bug and Chromette. Do you think Megatron will enjoy his new trophies? He'll probably use the bulky one here for target practice," Airachnid taunted as she pushed Bulkhead to the ground, "Prime is the true prize. Perhaps he'll adorn the prow of Megatron's warship."
When she saw Bumblebee peeking out from behind the rocks, Airachnid fired. Immediately, Bumblebee moved to shield himself, next to Chromette as they saw the shots from the Arachnicon's blaster aiming at the rock in front of them
Bumblebee and Chromette looked up and saw Airachnid had fired at the rocks above them. Immediately, they both fired at the rocks to create a mist to protect themselves. Airachnid saw blaster fire coming from the mist and knew it was Bumblebee and Chromette. they soon started shooting at her. Airachnid took an opportunity and she activated the Immobilizer and fired around the mist. When the firing stopped, she knew. She chuckled as the mist cleared, revealing an immobilized Bumblebee and Chromette. That was it. It was over. All the Autobots she was battling were immobilized.
"But you, bug? I suspect Megatron will simply dismantle you for spare parts," she told Bumblebee before looking at Chromette, "And you, Chromette, I will show you to your twin with you immobilized as I snuff your spark out, in front of her." She walks away from the immobilized scout and femme and approaches the immobilized Prime, "As a rogue, a scavenger, I should disappear into the night with this treasure. But using it to worm my way into Megatron's favor is too good an opportunity to pass up. Wouldn't you say, Prime?" Airachnid asked him, "I mean, with results like this, I could earn Megatron's eternal trust."
Suddenly, Airachnid turned around. To her surprise, Bumblebee and Chromette were both standing there. She hadn't Immobilized them with the Immobilizer like she thought she had! Airachnid's surprise grew as Bumblebee punched her in the face, while Chromette approached her with agility, had her blades deployed and scratched Airachnid with it. As the scavenger fell to the ground, the Immobilizer left her grasp and flew in the air, Chromette jumped into the air and caught it. "Bee, I think we'll need this to unfreeze Prime and Bulkhead," she said as she aimed it at Airachnid, "Leave or I'll use the immobilizer on you!"
"Fine. The next time I face you or your sister, one of you will have your sparks extinguished. I have better things to do anyway," Airachnid shrugged before transforming into her alt-form and taking to the skies.
"Let's how this works," Chromette muttered as she tries to figure out to use the immobilizer to unfreeze her immobilized comrades, reversed the polarity and aimed it at Bulkhead, who was still on the ground, he groaned as he was unfrozen, had sensation the were similar to motion sickness before he got up.
"What happened? Where's Airachnid?" He groaned before seeing Optimus, "Optimus!"
"Already taken care of, Bulk," she said and unfroze her leader, who groaned for a second and had the same sensations as the wrecker did before they went away and saw Chromette holding the Immobilizer.
"Chromette, you unfroze us?" Optimus asked the femme, "What happened to Airachnid?"
"I'll explain when we get back to base," she said as she went back to where Arcee and Starscream were.
Arcee was on her knees when Starscream kicked her near her stomach, causing her to walk backwards a bit, he then kicked her at the wound he gave her moments ago, around her stomach, and pounded her on the back before kicking her again, causing her to fall down a hill, she grunted as she flew down the hill in pain and stopped.
"You should have finished me when I was helpless to fight, just like I finished Cliffjumper," he said, continuing to torment the femme, earning groans in pain from Arcee as he flashed his sharp long digits, "Now prepare to reunite with your partners."
"This…is…," Arcee choked on the Energon that was beginning to build up in her throat.
"What's that? I can't hear your last words," Starscream smirked.
"This… is for Cliffjumper!" She screeched as she regained her strength and deployed her blades again and began taking swings at Starscream. The disgraced Decepticon never saw this coming. So he couldn't block the hits. Starscream let out a girlish scream as Arcee swiped her blade above his eyebrows. Two more hits to the chest took Starscream by surprise. As he slowly fell to the ground, Arcee swung her arms back and performed a body slam on him and held her blade near the seeker's throat.
"Go on, do it. Megatron will only terminate me for treason if I dare return to the Decepticons. You may as well be the one to put me out of my misery," Starscream begged her.
"As if I needed convincing," she snarled as she raised her arm high in the air.
"What?! Wait! No!" Starscream yelled
She looked at him for a few seconds before seeing Optimus, Bumblebee, Bulkhead and her sister standing above on the hill with shock. She got off him and walked away before falling to her knees, Chromette slid down the hill to her followed by Bumblebee, who picked her up, while Chromette wanted to know why she was fighting their prisoner, did she start it or did he? Knowing Starscream, she has a feeling that it was Starscream that started it. They then left to go to base to get repairs and put the Immobilizer in storage.
Airachnid returned to Nemesis and walked into the bridge, Megatron noticed the absence of his second of command and demanded to know what happened to do so she began to explain and as she did, he got very angry and pissed at her, "You left Starscream with the Autobots?" He screeched at Airachnid, "Do you have any notion of the consequences of your blunder?!"
"But, my Lordship, it was Starscream's incompetence that cost us the Immobilizer," she said as she began defending herself.
"I don't care about some trinket. My second-in Command is a prisoner of the enemy! Which means all Decepticon intelligence could be at the fingertips of the autobots!" Megatron raged before walking away.
"It's lucky that Chromette was able to take the Immobilizer from Airachnid after it fell out of her grasp, reverse its polarity and used on you and Bulkhead to unfreeze the two of you," Ratchet said as he examined the Immobilizer.
"Ratchet, how is Arcee?" Chromette asked him.
"Well like yourself, Chromette, your sister is resilient for a two-wheeler," he answered.
"It is the external wounds that heal the quickest," Optimus told Arcee as Chromette approached her sister and sat next to her as the rest of the Autobots looked at Arcee.
"Sis, what made you fight Starscream?" Chromette asked, "Was he the one that killed Cliffjumper?"
"He was, Chrome," she answered, "But I thought settling scores would allow me to move on. Instead, I chased away our hope of winning this war anytime soon."
"Wisdom cannot be taken for granted, Arcee," Optimus told Arcee, "It must be earned, sometimes at a cost."
"It's alright sis," Chromette said, hugging her sister, who returned the hug, "We'll find a way of ending the war sooner or later and hopefully restoring Cybertron as well."
Starscream was bashing his back against a rock wall, trying to remove the clamp bonds the Autobots placed on his wings, when he was their prisoner, making him unable to fly. After bashing three times against the wall the clamp bonds fell to the ground.
"I have been a fool, made mistakes, monumental ones. But I have gained a clear understanding of my place in this universe, of who I am, Starscream: aligned with no side, servant to no one." Starscream thought to himself as he transforms and flew away, going rouge.
Next is T.M.I.
