Inside Scorpinok, Shockwave took command. Nos had other plans. The Decepticons were gathered in the main control room. Shockwave stood in front of them.
"Decepticons, we will destroy the Autobots but it will be under my command." Shockwave said.
"I don't think so." Nos said.
"What did you say?"
"You aren't going to rule the Decepticons. I will."
"That is treason."
"Wow, you are fast. We can't get anything past you."
"I will not stand for this."
At that moment Shockwave jumped into the air and transformed into his gun mode. He floated in the air and pointed his barrel at Nos. Nos didn't even flinch.
"I can do that too." Nos said.
He transformed into his gun mode but he landed into the hands of Menasor. While Shockwave was busy with Nos, the Stunticons combined into Menasor. Menasor fired at Shockwave and hit him. Shockwave fell to the ground and transformed into his robot mode. Menasor lifted his foot and stepped on Shockwave. Shockwave's head shot out from beneath of his foot and bounced around.
"Menasor crush." Menasor said.
Starscream observed the insurrection. He grinned.
"Ol' dot head, got it in the end after all."
Meanwhile at the Ark, the Autobots were talking about events that had happened earlier that day. Sigma, sat in the rec room relaxing. Inferno, Ironhide and Prowl were sitting with him.
"What you did in twenty hours, Optimus couldn't do in twenty years." Smokescreen said.
"Now, don't compare me to Optimus. He was a much better leader than I'll ever be." Sigma replied.
"Ah, now don't be that way, Prime. Each Prime has themselves their own thing." Ironhide said.
Sigma was about to reply but Streetwise came running in. The four of them looked up at the Protectobot. They all wondered why his circuits were all fused together.
"Sigma Prime, Rioters are in uptown Athens, destroying cars, windows and other various items."
They all walked into the control room and activated a sky spy.
"Damn protesters. What are they protesting now?" asked Ratchet.
"Our war." Sigma replied.
"They're injuring other people. They don't seem to care." Ratchet said.
"We'll take care of them. Protectobots, Ironhide, Ratchet, Prowl, Red Alert, Inferno, transform and roll out."
They all transformed and headed to take care of the protesters.
The protesters were throwing Molotov cocktails into cars and windows of local businesses. Innocent civilians who got in the way of the rioters were injured. Just then the Autobots arrived. The rioters didn't think about it until they transformed. The rioters threw things at them. The objects didn't phase any of the Autobots.
"Ironhide, Inferno, Hot Spot, hose 'em down." Sigma said with his eyes still on the rioters.
The three of them all sprayed water at the rioters, knocking them all down. Ratchet and First Aid ran over and aided the wounded and took them to the hospital. Some of the protesters came from behind them and surrounded them. The rioters threw anything they could get their hands on at the Autobots. The Autobots tried to move around with out stepping on the humans. Sigma Prime almost stumbled and stepped on two humans that were throwing rocks at him. Just then sirens filled the air and the rioters scattered.
"Prowl, Streetwise, you can turn off your sirens now." Inferno said.
"That's not us." Prowl said.
The street was filled with Athens Police. The Autobots could move around more easily now.
"Alright, Autobots, lets roll out."
Nos prepared a shuttle inside Scorpinok. Then Skywarp walked in.
"Where are you going, mighty Nos?"
"To ensure our victory."
"Not to be skeptical, but how are you going to do that?"
"I'm going to reactivate Unicron."
"Are you mad? He won't take sides, he'll destroy everything, including us."
"Silence, you fool. Nos shouted as he backhanded the jet across the cargo bay.
Nos boarded the shuttle. Skywarp picked himself up off of the floor and watched his now crazy leader leave the base. Scorpinok's main door opened and Nos left for the head of Unicron that was still orbiting Cybertron.
