Bumblebee was lying on the ground, badly damaged, and the other Autobots ran to his aid.
"Bumblebee!" said Optimus worriedly. Ratchet went over to Bumblebee and checked the damage. "What's his status?"
"Bad, his CPU is fried, and his primary capacitor has suffered major damage," said Ratchet.
"But we don't have Sari's key," said Bulkhead.
"I don't need a key to do my job!" Ratchet snapped.
"It okay, Bulkhead. Ratchet knows what he's doing," Optimus assured him.
Ratchet just stared at Bumblebee, holding his deliberator.
This made him think back to the Great War, more specifically during the final battle. The Battle of Icon had been the Decepticons' final assault. Omega Supreme and his brothers had been fighting on the front lines; there were 11 more Autobots based upon the design of Omega until all the two of them survived.
Ratchet had made his way through the ruined city in search for Omega and found him badly damaged on the battlefield. He made his way inside Omega and proceeded to his spark chamber, hoping to save his life.
"Ratchet, is that you?" Omega asked.
"It's me," said Ratchet opening his spark chamber.
"I can feel my spark fading."
"I know; I need to put you in a modified stasis until we can get you fixed up. Can you still transform?"
"I… think so."
Omega then transformed into his vehicle mode, but it was extremely painful. After his transformation was complete, Ratchet began to put him into stasis.
"You taught me to protect like an Autobot, but all I did was destroy like a Decepticon," said Omega.
"We do what we must, even if it sometimes doesn't make sense," said Ratchet.
"I don't understand."
"I'm not sure I do either," said Ratchet as he went for the final procedure. "Just rest now, friend. You've earned it."
"Thank you," said Omega slowly as he entered into stasis.
"You okay, Ratchet?" Optimus asked, bringing Ratchet back to the present.
Ratchet then moved his servos closer to Bumblebee, and they shook even more. Optimus then put his hand over Ratchet's. "Your servos are shacking."
"Between you and me, I'm a little rusty at this," Ratchet admitted. "Don't worry, I'll be fine." Ratchet said. Then he put a scanner over Bumblebee.
Of course, while he was doing this, Sari was slashing at anything in her way with her blades. Additionally, she found it impossible to control herself and backed into a truck which exploded within seconds of contact.
"And I thought I was clumsy," said Bulkhead.
"It's a that is probably the fact that she cannot control herself. This is the perfect example of what happens when you power yourself when your body is unable to control the output. If we don't find a way to stop that, she will destroy everything within the city," said Blurr.
"We have to get that key," said Optimus.
"I told you, I'm fine." Ratchet snapped angrily.
"I know that Ratchet, but if the key is what's overloading Sari circuits, removing that power souse could shut her down," said Optimus.
"Right, sorry about that, Prime." Ratchet apologised.
"Just take care of Bumblebee," said Optimus. "Elita, you better stay here and help Ratchet. The rest of us will take care of the rest."
"Just make sure you bring her back safe, and do try to be careful," said Elita.
"I promise," said Optimus and then turned to the others. "Transform and roll out!"
They then transformed into their vehicle modes and went after Sari.
"Don't worry, Prime will be fine," said Ratchet putting his hand on her shoulder.
Elita turned on him. "I don't know what you're talking about."
Ratchet just gave her a small smile, and then they started to work on Bumblebee.
Meanwhile, Sari was skating on the highway, completely out of control. She kept on hitting cars, causing them to explode after a few seconds of contact. The Autobots were chasing after her on the road below.
"We'll never get that key if we don't slow her down first," said Optimus. "Autobots, follow me!"
They followed him towards the construction site, and once there, everyone apart from Prowl and Blurr transformed into robot mode.
"Bulkhead, you, Moonracer and I need to make a little detour," Optimus instructed. "Prowl and Blurr, you two wait for my command, then go for that key."
Meanwhile, both Ratchet and Elita were desperately trying to rescue Bumblebee, but he was fading fast.
"Ratchet, we're losing him," Elita warned.
"No, no, no, don't do this, kid. Stay with me!" Ratchet panicked, putting his deliberator on him.
Meanwhile, Optimus, Bulkhead and Moonracer had blocked Sari's path with steel girders. However, she kept on slicing through them non-stop.
"Prowl! Blurr! Now!" Optimus ordered.
Blurr transformed to robot mode behind Sari and grabbed her arms. Then Prowl jumped over steel girders and grabbed the key.
"Got it!" Prowl yelled.
Blurr then released Sari, and her arms and feet returned to normal. But then her arms changed back, and she started to slash at steel girders.
"Prime, what your status?" Ratchet asked over the com-link.
"We got the key, but she's still out of control!" said Optimus.
"Right now, I'm more worried about Bumblebee!" Ratchet panicked. "I know what I said, but I need that key."
"It's on the way," said Optimus and turned to Prowl. "Go now! We'll handle Sari."
Prowl nodded and transformed to vehicle mode, and drove off.
"Now what?" Bulkhead asked.
"Good question," said Optimus.
Prowl drove as fast as he could to Ratchet and Blackarachnia. When he got there, he transformed into robot mode and gave Ratchet the key. Ratchet put it in a slot in Bumblebee's chest and turned, but nothing happened.
"Argh, it's not working!" Ratchet yelled angrily. He then tried it again, but nothing happened. "The slagging thing's got no power."
"Perhaps all its energy was drained during Sari upgrade," Prowl theorised and looked back at Ratchet. "You don't need the key, Ratchet. You can do this without it."
"If Optimus believes you can, then so do I," said Elita.
Meanwhile, the others were not having any luck with Sari. Right now, she was causing small explosions every time she took a single step.
"Ahh! I can't stop myself from blowing everything up!" Sari wailed.
"Why don't you try to hold it in, you know, when you have to go to that sleeproom!" Bulkhead suggested.
"Restroom? Okay, nothing else is working," said Sari and then tried to hold her power in. She lifted her foot, and the ground didn't explode.
"What you know, it worked," said Bulkhead.
Their joy was short-lived as Sari then started to glow.
"Uh, guys, I don't think this was such a good idea!" Sari panicked before a shockwave hit them and caused them to crash into a building.
Meanwhile, Ratchet was using his x-ray eye to see through Bumblebee's armour. He then activated his magnets and started to reconnect some of Bumblebee's systems.
"Whoa," said Bumblebee as he opened his eyes. Then he started to look around. "Where, Sari? We have to—argh…"
Bumblebee winced in pain as he tried to sit up.
"Easy there, kid," said Ratchet gently. "I managed to stabiles your command module with an interface patch. But it's just temporary you are doing to need more work back at the plant." Ratchet said.
Optimus then called him on his com-link. "Ratchet! Sari is about to explode. The only thing that can stop her is your EMP generator! You need to get here, stat!"
"We can't use it on her, Prime," Ratchet argued. "I've got no idea how it will affect a techno-organism; it could kill her."
"We don't have a choice, Ratchet," said Optimus. "She could take all of Detroit with her."
"Go, we'll stay with Bumblebee," said Prowl.
"Yeah, I can take care of Bumblebee from here," said Elita.
"Try to keep him quiet," said Ratchet.
"You do realise this is Bumblebee," Prowl pointed out.
"Oh, yeah," said Ratchet before transforming to vehicle mode and drove off.
"He might as well have asked Megatron not to conquer the galaxy," said Elita.
Ratchet drove as fast as he could, but once he reached Sari, the force wave forced him to transform to robot mode.
"Sari, you've got to stop this! I don't want to hurt you!" Ratchet yelled as he aimed his EMP generator at her.
"I don't want to hurt you either, but I can't stop myself!" Sari said as she got closer to Ratchet and gave him a pleading look. "Just do it. I promise it will be all right."
Ratchet reluctantly fired his EMP generator, and the moment the be made contact, she collapsed and the energy surrounding her dissipated.
"No!" Ratchet whispered, fearing the worst.
Longarm had returned to his office in the Metroplex, and no sooner had he entered than he received a message from Megatron. Sitting in his chair, he activated the secure channel between him and Megatron and transformed into Shockwave.
"Lord Megatron," said Shockwave.
"Shockwave, I'm afraid we have suffered a setback," said Megatron gratefully.
"You don't know the half of it, my lord," said Shockwave. "Ultra Magnus has shut down the entire Space Bridge Network, and the Earth-bound Autobots can expose my cover at any moment."
"I believe I have something that might solve both of those problems."
Striker and her team were still waiting at the Space Bridge when they saw the Steelhaven come into view.
"Ow, the Autobot Elite Guard, this should be fun," Striker smiled.
"Attention, Decepticons! This is Megatron!" said Megatron over their com-links. "All units fall back at once. Do not engage the Autobots until further orders."
"Fall back? He cannot be serious!" Striker roared in disbelief.
"There will be grave consequences for those who disobey; your leader has spoken," Megatron added.
"Right," said Striker reluctantly. "You heard the bot! Fall back!"
They immediately transformed into their vehicle modes and made it all the way back to their ship.
On the bridge of the Steelhaven, everyone on board watched as the Decepticon ship flew away from the Space Bridge.
"You ain't going to believe this Commander, but the cons are going splitsville," said Jazz.
Sentinel looked triumphant, but Ultra Magnus was deeply concerned.
Meanwhile, back at the Autobot base, everyone was waiting for Ratchet to inform them of Sari's condition.
"How bad was it?" Bumblebee asked, looking at Elita.
"Well, the blast didn't kill her, but the moment her robotic component shut down because of the massive shock, and I mean that in organic terms," said Elita. "However, she's a tough kid, and I have no doubt that Ratchet to fix her up."
"Looks like about to find out," said Moonracer as Ratchet entered the room.
"How is she?" Optimus asked.
"I managed to rewire her systems the old-fashioned way and bypassed the circuits that caused her to go out of control," Ratchet informed them.
"But she's going to be okay, right?" Bumblebee asked who was wearing bandages around his waist.
"I've done everything I can. All we can do now is wait," said Ratchet.
Then they saw Processor Sumdac walking towards them.
"I came as soon as I could," he said.
"Processor Sumdac?" Bulkhead stared.
"What's he doing here?" Bumblebee stunned.
"Who told him the location of a secret base?" Prowl asked.
"I did," said Optimus said, walking toward Processor Sumdac and then he picked him up. "For now on, there are no more secrets in this family."
They then took Processor Sumdac to Sari, who was lying on a berth with a blanket over her.
"She looks like a teenager now," Processor Sumdac gasped in shock.
Optimus then turned to the other Autobots. "Let's give them some time alone."
They then left the room.
All the Autobots waited outside the planet, telling Bumblebee of everything he missed.
"So Sari's part Cybertronian, the Headmaster jacked Starscream's body, I go on a transwarp tour of the galaxy and nearly get slagged by an upgraded Sari. Uh, can this solo cycle get any stranger?" Bumblebee asked before he started to glow.
"Uh, be careful what you wish for," said Bulkhead.
"Oh no, I'm going to transwarp again!" Bumblebee panicked. Bulkhead opened the slot in his back, took out the plasma dynamic thruster, and pressed a button, turning it off. "Huh, now why I didn't think of that?"
"Because you're not a space bridge genus," said Bulkhead, then he looked up.
Everybody looked to see what Bulkhead was looking at. They saw a transwarp field, and coming out of it was Omega Supreme.
"Is that?" Prowl asked.
"Omega Supreme, you're alive!" said Ratchet, relieved. Omega Supreme passed over them, and his turret was aiming at them.
"So then why doesn't he look glad to see us?" Bumblebee asked. Then Omega Supreme fired at them.
"Take cover!" Optimus ordered.
"Omega, what are you doing? Don't you recognise your old friend?" Ratchet yelled.
Omega Supreme then transformed to robot mode, revealing a projected image of Megatron's face upon his visor.
"The question should be, 'Don't you recognise your old enemy?'" said Megatron.
"Megatron!" Optimus said.
"Ah, then you do remember my name. Pity I can't remember yours," Megatron said.
Then Megatron tried to squash them by putting Omega's foot down on top of them, and they quickly moved to avoid it. He then blasted at them with Omega's left arm at Prowl, Bumblebee and Blurr.
"How does it feel that the source of the Autobots' victory in the Great War will now deliver your annihilation?" Megatron asked as Bulkhead swung his wreaking ball arm at him.
Luckily for him, both Optimus and Ratchet pushed Bulkhead out of the way in time before Megatron tried to squash him.
"And I thought that Headmaster was bad news," said Bulkhead.
"I don't know how, but somehow he's managed to hack Omega Supreme," said Elita as she and Moonracer dodged lasers.
They quickly soon joined up with Prowl and the others.
"We need to lead him away from the city before somebody gets hurt," said Optimus.
"Somebody like us maybe," said Bumblebee.
"Ratchet, you stay behind with Sari," Optimus ordered as another blast went behind them.
"But there's nothing more I can do for her now!" Ratchet argued.
"I know, but I may need you to undo something."
Prowl stared at him. "You're not actually suggesting that we unleash an uncontrollable Sari on Omega Supreme, are you?"
"I'm hoping we won't have to," said Optimus.
Then Megatron pulled a giant pipe as he tried to look for the Autobots.
"You can't hide forever, Autobot," said Megatron.
"Whatever we are going to do, we better do it fast," said Moonracer.
"She's not wrong. With the power of Omega Supreme, Megatron is practically unstoppable. I am still very much surprised that Omega Supreme is online; it was believed that he was melted down for scrap after the Great War. Clearly, this was just a mere cover-up, but what were the chances that your very ship was, in fact, the Autobots' greatest weapon," said Blurr.
"It's a long story," said Ratchet and then turned to Bumblebee, flipped a panel on his arm and increased the power to Bumblebee's stingers.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Bumblebee asked.
"You're going to need all the help you can get out there, kid," said Ratchet. Bumblebee then activated his stingers, and they glowed bright than ever before.
"How come you never did that before?" Bumblebee asked.
Optimus then glared at Ratchet. "Because battle-grade stingers are only allowed on combat bots."
"What are you going to do? Arrest me?" Ratchet snapped as he walked away.
"We're more or less combat bots," Elita pointed out. "And we're going to need every advantage we're going to battling Omega Supreme."
Optimus decided it was not best to argue, and he and the others turned.
"Autobots transform and roll out!" Optimus ordered as they transformed into vehicle mode and drove away.
"Unwise move, Autobots," said Megatron.
Megatron then fired at them, but they managed to enter a tunnel. They drove all the way to a nearby river, and Megatron then stepped into the river, trying to find the Autobots.
"Where are the Autobots?" Megatron growled. Megatron then tried to find their energy signatures but with no luck. "The moisture on this infernal organic planet is interfiling with their energy signatures." He then blasted at the water.
"We need to break Megatrons control over Omega Supreme," said Optimus.
"What chance do we have against a bot with a body the size of Sumdac Tower?" Bumblebee asked.
"Then we should focus on the processor," said Prowl transforming to robot mode. "If I can access Omega Supreme from the inside, I could use by cyber-ninja technic to help him override Megatron's commands."
"But that trick didn't work on Sari ever," Bulkhead said.
"True, but I could try to drain some of his power to weaken Megatron's control," Elita offered.
"But you never drained anything that big before. So you could go offline if you are not able to contain that power which would be bad, bad," said Blurr.
"She doesn't need to drain a massive amount, and we also diverted Megatron's attention. We may also weaken his hold," Moonracer added.
"Then it settled; I'll accompany Prowl and keep Megatron busy," said Optimus transforming to robot mode. "Which means it's up to the rest of you to keep Omega Supreme busy while Elita tries to grain his power and when Prowl and I sneak aboard."
Bumblebee and the others then transformed into robot mode.
"Huh, I love being the decoy," Bumblebee sighed.
They looked up to Megatron closing in on them.
"Get ready for the new, improved battle-grade stingers, Megajerk!" Bumblebee yelled as he changed his stingers and fired at Megatron's leg, making him fall to his knees.
"Argh!" Megatron roared.
Then the four of them jumped out of the river in their vehicle modes.
"You think you can stop me that easily!" Megatron roared as he fired at them.
Unknown to Megatron Optimus, Elita and Prowl were on Omega's leg. Optimus hit Omega's leg with his axe forcing a hatch to open.
"I'll try to gain as much power as I can," said Elita.
"Just be careful," said Optimus before they entered it.
Elita then transformed into her beast mode and began climbing up Omega's body. When she finally reached the centre of his back, she transformed into robot mode and plunged her blade is into him.
"What's going on?" Megatron asked as he felt Elita's cyber venom entering Omega's body.
Omega went on all fours. It looked like Elita was gaining the upper hand, but then she started to black out. She lost her grip on Omega and began to fall, but fortunately, Blurr saw this and quickly transformed to robot mode. He then ran across the water and caught Elita before she hit it.
"Remind me to never do that again," said Elita weakly.
"Sure thing. I mean, I don't want you to fall off a giant Autobot if there were other giant Autobots, that is," said Blurr.
At the same time, Optimus and Prowl jumped out of the water inside of Omega Supreme.
"The power core should be right around—argh!" Prowl yelled as a pincer grabbed him, sounding the alarm.
"Intruder alert! Intruder alert!" Omega's internal defences yelled.
Optimus then cut the pincer that was holding Prowl with his axe. Then two more pincers came at them, but Optimus just used his axe to cut them down.
"Go for the spark chamber; I'll deal with Megatron," Optimus ordered.
Prowl then ran to the spark chamber dodging the pincers that tried to grab him. When he entered the spark chamber, he walked up to the control conceal and entered into Omega's processor.
He then found himself standing in a digital environment, with his blight blue avatar standing upon a massive queue.
"Omega Supreme, this is Prowl! I'm a friend of Ratchet's, and I've accessed your internal processor," said Prowl.
Then some purple data cubs joined together form Megatron.
"Unfortunately for you, Autobot, so have I," said Megatron and then swung his blade at Prowl. Prowl quickly jumped back and landed on another cube. "Your techno-organic friend may have weakened my control over him, but I still have some control over him."
"Omega Supreme, join with my processor, and together, we will resist Megatron's control!" Prowl called out.
Megatron flew towards him, preparing to strike, but then he stopped and looked as if he was in pain. Then suddenly, his digital avatar slowly became consumed with bright yellow cubes and slowly transformed into Omega.
"I am Omega Supreme!" Omega roared as he broke Megatron's control.
Megatron yelled in pain as he got hit by the feedback on the control console and lifted itself back onto the bridge.
Outside Omega, he had stopped firing at the others, who transformed into robot mode.
"What with him?" Bumblebee asked.
Then Omega's visor returned to normal.
"What with him is he is him again!" Bulkhead cheered.
"Prowl must have freed him from Megatron!" said Moonracer.
Megatron was in a fit of rage as he tried to regain control of Omega Supreme
Meanwhile, with Optimus, he had just entered the bridge just in time to see Megatron in a rage.
"You will do as I command!" Megatron ordered.
He then yelled out in pain as Optimus' axe embedded itself in his shoulder.
Optimus then through his axe at him, which hit Megatron's shoulder.
"Not any more, Megatron!" said Optimus as Megatron turned to face him.
"It appears you and I are destined to battle aboard this ship once more, Autobot," said Megatron as he removed the axe and tossed it back at Optimus
Optimus caught the axe and narrowed his optics. "Bring it on, Decepticon."
"Since you insist," said Megatron, and he charged at him.
Optimus just sidestepped, and Megatron crashed into the corridor.
"Not so tough without your weapons, are you," said Optimus.
Optimus then charged at him, but Megatron just grabbed him and threw him into the wall.
"Now to shut down that meddlesome cyber-ninja," said Megatron.
Megatron entered Omega's spark chamber, and Prowl was still motionless as he was accessing Omega's processor. However, just as Megatron reached out to grab Prowl. Optimus kicked him into Omega's spark chamber.
"You have persists, Autobot," said Megatron and then grabbed him and started to squeeze him. "I hate persists."
Then there was giant rubble.
The rubble was Omega firing at the Autobots outside again.
"Hey, what going on in there?" Bumblebee asked before he ran from another of Omega's blasts.
"Did Megatron regain control?" Moonracer asked.
Prowl could see that Omega's avatar looked as if it was in pain
"Someone else is controlling him," he said.
Then the image of Omega shattered and replaced him was the red avatar of Starscream.
"Now I wonder you that could be," Starscream smirked.
Starscream then blasted him with his null rays, and the feedback from the attack was enough to break Prowl's concentration. He was flung backwards, colliding with Optimus freeing him from Megatron's grip, and the two of them fell into a trap door.
"Excellent work, Starscream," said Megatron.
Then two pincers grabbed him.
"Ha, you think I did this for your benefit," Starscream sneered.
Optimus and Prowl landed outside of Omega's body, and Starscream's face appeared in Omega's visor.
"Argh, it's more powerful than imagined. Well, not Allspark powerful, but still pretty good," said Starscream.
He then began firing down on the Autobots.
Optimus quickly activated his com-link. "Ratchet, remember that thing I was hoping we wouldn't have to do. Well, it looks like we may have to."
"Over my sparkles shell, "Ratchet said to himself before he transformed to vehicle mode and drove away.
Meanwhile, Starscream was still shooting at the Autobots, but Megatron tried to talk him into helping him.
"Listen to reason why waste energon attacking this insignificant plant when we should be concentrated conquering Cybertron together?" Megatron asked.
"Are you insane? Hey, that's not a bad idea," said Stacream. Then he stopped shooting at the Autobots and tried to get Omega to transwarp. "Come on, come on, transwarp already, you overgrown death machine."
"What this? The great Starscream can even jump-start an Autobot," Megatron smirked.
"Quick while he's distracted," Optimus ordered.
Optimus then used his axe to open the hatch like before, but it didn't work. Bulkhead then tried to open it with his wreaking ball arm, but that didn't work either. Prowl tried to open it with his shuriken, but it had the same effect. Even Bumblebee's stings didn't open it.
"Starscream got that hatch sealed tight. We've tried everything," Bumblebee said.
"You ever try talking?" Ratchet asked as he drove up and transformed to robot mode. "Listen up, Omega, it's me, Ratchet."
Then Omega's visor returned to normal. "Ratchet?"
"That's it. Stay with me, soldier!" Ratchet ordered.
"Starscream too powerful," said Omega as Starscream tried to regain control. "Please shut me down! I want to sleep again!"
"I already had to use this thing once today when I didn't want to. Don't make me use it again." Said Ratchet as he activated his EMP generator.
"We do what we must even if it sometimes doesn't make sense," said Omega.
Then Starscream's face appeared on Omega's visor. "Yes, the power of Omega Supreme is mine. Now I will conquer Cybertron!"
"Not so fast, Deceptclown!" Ratchet yelled, and then he fired his EMP generator at Omega, but it didn't work.
"Ha, ha, you're EMP is useless against my AllSpark power!" Starscream said.
Then he made Omega transform to his vehicle mode and flew off. Optimus fired his grabble at Omega while Blackarachnia used her webbing to follow Starscream.
"He's going to transwarp to Cybertron!" Bulkhead yelled.
"This is bad, very bad," said Blurr frantically. "Cybertron is practically defenceless; there's no way they will be able to repel a bot as powerful as Omega Supreme!"
"There must be something we can do," said Moonracer.
Bumblebee then opened Bulkhead's compartment in his chest and pulled out the plasma dynamic thruster. "Maybe we can retrieve him with this?" he said.
"Don't you remember anything? This thing will just make you warp around space randomly," Bulkhead reminded him.
Then their face is lit up. "Warp around space randomly!"
Bulkhead then threw Bumblebee into the air, and he activated his turbo boosters and flew straight to Optimus and Elita. Once he was close enough, Bumblebee threw the plasma dynamic thruster at them, and Optimus caught it, and they both swung to a platform. Elita ripped a hole into the ship with the strength she got from Omega, and Optimus put the thruster into the hole. They then both jumped off just before Omega transwarp.
Meanwhile, Ratchet had just caught Bumblebee with his magnets and lowered him to the ground. He sighed with relief until he saw Optimus and Elita falling towards them. Elita was able to use her jump jets to slow her descent, but Ratchet quickly used his magnets to catch Optimus. While he managed to slow his descent, Optimus still crashed onto the ground.
"Someday, I really have to learn how to fly," Optimus muttered.
They then returned back to the plant just in time to see Sari waking up.
"Sari," said Optimus with relief.
"Told you it would be all right," said Sari, weakly looking at Ratchet.
"Try not to talk, kid. You're still pretty weak," said Ratchet.
"You were right about taking it slow; I should have listened," Sari admitted.
"And I should have trusted you to handle the truth," Processor Sumdac added.
Bumblebee then turned to Ratchet. "And since how we are all honest here. Thanks for saving my motherboard out there."
"Guess this old bot is not so obsolete after all," said Ratchet and then felt Bulkhead tapping his shoulder.
"Good thing because you, me and Elita got to figure out how we are going to get word back to Cybertron," said Bulkhead.
Once they were turned back to Cybertron, Ultra Magnus called an emergency meeting regarding the Decepticon uprisings.
"These Decepticon uprisings were too far co-ordinated to be dismissed as random acts of sabotage," said Ultra Magnus. "All signs point to an inside source, a Decepticon double agent here on Cybertron."
"Clearly, it's the escape convict Wasp," said Longarm quickly. "Surely it's no coincidence that all this Decepticon activity began after his escape."
Ultra Magnus nodded and turned to Sentinel and Jazz. "Sentinel Prime, Jazz, I want you to put together an Elite Guard unit to track down Wasp right away."
"Sir, yes, sir," said Sentinel as he stood up and saluted.
"I can dig it," said Jazz doing the same.
"Also, try to contact Optimus Prime's team on Earth. It's been Deca-cycles since we heard from them," Ultra Magnus ordered.
Longarm quickly rose to his feet. "All communication with Optimus Prime's group should filter through me first, no exceptions." Everybody just stared at his outburst. "For security sake, of course, and for the sake of Cybertron."
Starscream then suddenly transwarped and appeared directly over Cybertron.
"Yes!" said Stacream before Omega transwarped to a random area of space. "No!" He shouted, and then Omega did it again. "No!" Then Omega did it again. "Noooo!"
