As the sun shined down on a large mountain area with some trees on the outside, Luz and Amity were seen sitting ontop of a rock pile that was next to a cave.
"We're supposed to be having a nice Human Realm pool day with the others at your house. But instead, we're pulled into a simple scavenging mission at some simple cave." Amity muttered in complaint.
"Relax, Amity. We still have a few hours to meet up with them." Luz assured.
"Easy for you to say. I've been wanting to have a pool party in the Human Realm for days ever since I found out that the water here isn't boiling. Even Ghost stayed behind and she's a cat! Cats are supposed to hate water!" Amity replied before she sighed. "Sometimes, you humans get all the good things in your world."
"I wouldn't exactly say that. We've got some nasty things like poison ivy, zits and mosquitoes." Luz said while rubbing the back of her head. "Those things are a human's worst nightmare."
"I'm sure I can think of worst things, cutie." Amity admitted, giving her a flirty smile.
"That's for sure, sweet potato." Luz chuckled kindly before they both shared a kiss.
Just then, the two girls heard metal footsteps coming from the cave and they saw Arcee and Cliffjumper walking out of it.
"By all appearances, the mine's been stripped." Arcee said.
"But I'm getting a signal. It's faint, but it's definitely Energon." Cliffjumper replied while holding a scanner.
"That sounds interesting." Amity told her girlfriend, who slightly nodded in agreement.
"It doesn't make sense. This operation's been abandoned for four, maybe five years, and Decepticons never leave Energon behind." Arcee said suspiciously.
"If you ask me, it sounds pretty interesting." Amity replied as she got off the rock pile and approached the two Autobots. "Maybe you and I could do a bit of searching in that cave ourselves, Cliff?"
"You really wanna come with me, Amity?" Cliffjumper asked, feeling a bit unsure about her decision.
"Hey, I'm not scared of anything that tries to kill me in there." Amity said assuringly before she made a small magic circle with her finger. "I've got my own ways of defending myself."
"You sure do, girl. Alright, let's get to searching." Cliffjumper said with a smile before he and Amity began walking into the cave. "Just stick close to me and don't fall down any holes, okay?"
"Whatever you say, Cliff." Amity answered, giggling a bit.
"Unbelievable. How does Cliff even get talked into these things?" Arcee questioned herself with a sigh, while Luz walked up beside her.
"You know, having a harmless cave adventure would be better than just sitting out here." Luz admitted. "Don't you think so, partner?"
"A stripped mine can be structurally unstable, Luz." Arcee warned.
"I promise that I'll take light steps." Luz assured.
"…Just don't tell the others." Arcee said after making up her mind before they both followed Amity and Cliffjumper into the cave.
Just when they had completely vanished into the dark entrance, two familiar aerial vehicles appeared in the sky and they both transformed before landing on the ground, revealing to be Megatron and Starscream. Both Decepticons turned their attention to the cave entrance, with Starscream having a look of concern.
"Lord Megatron, far be it from me to question your intentions, but I do not understand why we've returned here after all this time. Alone." Starscream admitted before Megatron began walking towards the entrance, prompting him to follow. "Every last trace of Energon was extracted from this mine. There's nothing left."
Megatron halted where he was and turned towards his Second In Command.
"Indulge me, Starscream, won't you?" Megatron said simply as he walked into the cave.
Starscream was quite worried about something involving this abandoned mine, but he had no other choice but to follow Megatron.

Within the cave, Cliffjumper was in a darkened room that had a few sturdy pillars and was looking around for Amity.
"Amity? Where are you?" Cliffjumper asked. "Can you hear me?"
"Loud and clear, Cliff." Amity answered as she showed up from behind a large rock and looked around the area. "Wow, this place is pretty huge. Gus would probably like to salvage some things here. Hello, Human Realm! There are witches among you!"
As Amity was busy listening to her own echos from within the cave, Cliffjumper took a look at his scanner and he was getting a stronger reading on it.
"Arcee, I've found something." Cliffjumper informed on his com-link.
(Linebreak)
In another part of the cave, Arcee and Luz kept walking their way down before the female Autobot began hearing her partner on the com-link.
"Cliff? Cliff, do you read?" Arcee asked, but all she got was static. "Scrap. The mineral composition down here's causing interference."
"I would try calling Amity, but phones and Scrolls don't exactly work together." Luz admitted.
"Well, looks like the only way we're gonna meet up with them is if we had back out." Arcee replied before they both started walking down the cave again.
(Linebreak)
Cliffjumper wasn't getting an answer from Arcee and he turned off his com-link with a sigh.
"Okay, maybe there's not much in here for Gus to collect." Amity said. "And it's a little bit creepy."
"Well while we're here, Ratchet's gonna want a sample." Cliffjumper replied.
As the red Autobot approached a nearby wall, he shifted his hand into a short blade and began slicing it apart.
"Let me give you an extra pair of hands, Cliff." Amity said kindly before she summoned an Abomination from the ground.
The Abomination then began using it's great strength to lift up some boulders and toss them aside.
"Thanks for the help, Mittens." Cliffjumper said, causing Amity's eyes to widen in shock. "Yeah, a little birdie told me about your nickname."
"Luz?" Amity asked with a blank expression.
"Luz." Cliffjumper answered, smiling jokingly.
(Linebreak)
Meanwhile, Megatron and Starscream had arrived in a different open area in the cave and what they found within it where some Decepticon drilling machines.
"How intriguing." Megatron said, turning his attention towards Starscream.
Starscream was very nervous at first, but then he began growling angrily to hide his true state.
"Incompetent fools!" Starscream shouted, stomping forward to the drill machines. "This mining equipment should have been relocated! Why is it still here?!"
"A most valid question." Megatron replied with a stern frown, causing Starscream to turn around with a nervous chuckle.
"My apologies, master. I believe Thundercracker and Skywarp were in charge of coordinating transport." Starscream explained as Megatron only growled in response. "But in fairness, during your interstellar travels, we all assume additional responsibilities. Clearly mistakes were made."
"Yes. Clearly." Megatron scowled before smashing his hand through a stone wall, making Starscream stutter in worridness as his master pulled out a rock containing some Energon crystals. "Every last trace of Energon extracted?"
"Lord Megatron, I can explain." Starscream said timidly.
"Explain what? That you've been hoarding a supply of Energon for your personal use?" Megatron questioned with a glare, dropping the Energon onto the ground.
"No! Not exactly! You see, I-" Starscream was cut off when Megatron angrily smashed the Energon with his own foot.
"DO NOT TAKE ME FOR A FOOL, STARSCREAM!" Megatron yelled, making Starscream lost in words as he slowly approached the air commander. "I have been wise to your transgressions to the beginning. Not only did you pluck the Dark Energon from my chest in a failed attempt to snuff my Spark, but you tried to raise your own undead warrior with it. It's no secret that you lost an arm in the process, which you since had replaced."
"You know about that?!" Starscream asked in fear as he backed away.
"Soundwave is quite competent at surveillance, I can assure you. The fact is, Starscream, despite your treachery, I've allowed you to carry on this long because I took a certain delight in following your string of failures. But you've finally become tiresome, predictable." Megatron explained before aiming his cannon at Starscream. "You've hit rock bottom."
"Master, please! Give me one more chance! I beg of you!" Starscream begged before dropping on his knees for mercy.
At the same time, Luz was walking ahead of Arcee as she looked around the entire cave. But then, she walked into an open area and was shocked to see Megatron aiming his cannon at Starscream.
"You have ceased to be of use to me, Starscream, so you shall simply cease to be." Megatron declared, preparing to finish off the air commander.
Starscream covered his face and prepared for his death to come, but then his optics caught the sight of Luz staring at them in nervousness and Arcee soon showed up before looking at the two Decepticons in shock. Megatron followed Starscream's gaze and there was an intense moment of silence between everyone.
"Uh… are we interrupting something?" Luz asked, smiling in worridness.
Megatron furiously aimed his cannon at her and Arcee before firing it, causing Arcee to grab Luz and immediately take her behind a pillar.
"Stay down!" Arcee instructed as Megatron kept firing at them.
Seeing that his master was distracted by Arcee and her human partner, Starscream quickly started to run away through the path he took earlier. Megatron immediately noticed his Second In Command fleeing like the coward he is.
"Starscream! You dare abandon me?!" Megatron asked angrily before firing at Starscream.
The first shot nearly hit Starscream and he quickly jumped into the air before transforming, flying his way out while avoiding more shots. As she noticed that some rocks were falling from the ceiling and Megatron was busy with his Second In Command, Arcee took a deep breath before moving out of her cover and firing her blaster at the Decepticon Leader. The blasts barely managed to hurt Megatron and he attempted to turn around and fire back at Arcee. However, some of the shots made his cannon aim upwards and it fired a bunch of powerful blasts, causing a giant pillar to collapse ontop of him. Suddenly, the rock floor began to crumble apart.
"Scrap!" Arcee exclaimed as the drill machines fell down with the ground cracks.
She tried to run back to Luz, only for the female Autobot to fall down with the surface.
"Arcee, no!" Luz called out fearfully before she got fell down as well, screaming loudly.
(Linebreak)
From where they were, Amity and Cliffjumper saw that the entire cave was beginning to fall down on them.
"Uh, Cliff? What's happening?" Amity asked in worridness.
"The whole cave's coming down!" Cliffjumper stated before turning towards his human partner. "Amity, look out!"
Amity looked up and saw some giant rocks collapsing down to her position. She bent down and yelped fearfully before Cliffjumper ran towards her and started using his body as a shield for her. Lots of boulders bashed off the red Autobot as even bigger ones collapsed around the pair.
(Linebreak)
Starscream was seen flying his away around the cave-in and avoided every collapsing rubble with skilfully jet evasions. He saw the exit up ahead and was about to fly out of the cave, but then some boulders bashed onto him and he began spinning out of control. Starscream then transformed and crashed onto the floor with a painful grunt.
"What?! NOOOO!" Starscream yelled before the entire cave collapsed ontop of him, leaving the exit completely blocked and everyone inside was now trapped.
(Linebreak)
As rubble finally stopped falling and the dust settled, Luz appeared from a bunch of rubble and coughed a bit. She had some dust on her body and a few scratches on her cloths, but she was still alive. She slid down the rock pile and looked around for any sign of Arcee.
"Arcee? Arcee!" Luz called out as her voice echoed through the cave. "Great. I'm all by myself."
Seeing that the entire cave was too dark for her to walk through, Luz pulled out a Light Glyph and activated it as a bright orb floated in front of her.
"Well, at least the Energon fields on my planet help me in a collapsed cave, too." Luz said with a relived smile.
The Hispanic girl then began walking her way across the wrecked cave as the light orb followed her.
(Linebreak)
Meanwhile, Amity recovered from the collapsing rubble and she was also covered in dirt. She coughed a bit and looked up to see Cliffjumper standing over her, while also noticing a bunch of giant rocks were trapping them in a smaller confinement.
"Did I do that?" Cliffjumper questioned.
"I don't think so, Cliff." Amity answered, standing up.
"You okay?" Cliffjumper asked.
"A little bit scratched, but I'm still breathing. What about you?" Amity questioned as she turned around, only to be surprised when she saw her Autobot Guardian lifting a giant boulder above them.
"Peachy." Cliffjumper quipped.
"Whoa." Amity gasped.
"Don't worry, Amity. I've got it under control." Cliffjumper assured.
"What do you think caused the cave-in?" Amity asked.
"Who knows? I just hope Arcee and Luz are safe 'cause we could definitely use an assist." Cliffjumper said in concern.
"Just stay where you are, Cliff. I'll work on getting us out of here." Amity told him before walking towards a nearby wall.
She summoned some Abomination hands from the pot she was carrying around her waist and began using them to move some rocks away, while Amity also used her own hands to speed up the process.
(Linebreak)
From outside the cave, everything seemed quiet until Starscream suddenly popped out from the fallen rubble. The air commander coughed a bit from all the dust and turned towards all the rubble that had collapsed onto the cave before letting out a devious laugh.
"Predicable, master? Is that what you called me?" Starscream asked with a smirk. "Well, now who has hit rock bottom? Oh, what's that? I'm sorry, I can't hear you beneath all that rubble! Hahahahahaha! Farewell, Lord Megatron! May you rust in peace!"
Starscream began to take his leave, but then a sudden thought came into his mechanical mind and he stopped himself.
"But you have survived far worse. If you manage to free yourself, you would blame me for your setback. And there is no where that I could hide to possibly escape from your wrath. Or worse yet, your mindless followers would come looking for you, and take credit for your rescue. Credit that could rightfully be mine! RAGH! MEGATRON!" Starscream yelled out into the sky.
(Linebreak)
Back in the cave, Luz was continuing to trek her way through the rubble with the light orb guiding her through the darkness. She placed a Plant Glyph on the floor and it sprouted out some vines that pushes away some large boulders, clearing a path for the Hispanic to walk through.
"Arcee?! Cliffjumper?! Amity!" Luz called out as she didn't get a response from any of them.
Feeling hopeless at the moment, Luz looked around the entire cave for anything that could help her find the others. Soon, Luz took a look at where the light orb was shining and she saw one of the drilling machines that fell down during the cave-in up ahead.
"Huh, that could be really handy." Luz said while smiling in approval before she walked towards the drilling machine.
(Linebreak)
As nighttime had arrived, Amity was continuing to move some rubble away with the help of her Abomination hands while Cliffjumper was still holding up the unstable boulder above them. However, Cliffjumper noticed that the Abomination Witch was starting to look exhausted before she pulled up another boulder and then tripped back.
"Amity!" Cliffjumper exclaimed worriedly.
"Don't worry, I'm still feeling okay." Amity assured, panting a bit.
"No, you're not." Cliffjumper replied.
"I just need to… rest for a second. That's all." Amity muttered as she tried to stand back up, only to fall back on her knees.
"Amity, listen to me. There's no fresh air, down here. If you use up the oxygen too fast…" Cliffjumper began explaining.
"You and I could suffocate!" Amity stated in realisation.
"Not we, Mittens, you. Autobots don't need to breath, remember?" Cliffjumper said.
"Right, you were all able to stay in space for hours. I guess it slipped my mind." Amity admitted, panting a lot more. "I think it's better if I… just breath slowly. That should help me stay alive."
Once she got back up, Amity went towards the rock pile and she attempted to lift one of them up. But she proved to be too weakened and couldn't lift it.
"No. You need to stop, now." Cliffjumper told her.
"I can't, Cliff. I need to get you out of here." Amity said, determined to help her Autobot Guardian get out of their stoney prison.
She tried to lift the rock again, but her body gave out and she leaned against the rock pile in an exhausted state.
"Amity, please. Don't worry about me." Cliffjumper pleaded in concern before he began grunting a bit, feeling the giant rock pushing him down. "I'm fine."
(Linebreak)
Back with Luz, she had managed to climb onto the drilling machine with the help of a little lift from an Ice Glyph and approached the controls. The Hispanic girl then pressed on a few buttons and this made the controls turn on, showing the drilling machine's schematics and making the drill spin.
"I'm not an expert with Cybertronian stuff, but let's see if I can drive this thing." Luz said to herself before pushing a lever.
The drilling machine was now fully activated and it drove it's way deeper into the cave, drilling through any giant boulders that were in the way.
"Now that's what I'm talking about!" Luz remarked.
(Linebreak)
Even though it was far away, Amity and Cliffjumper could hear the sound of drilling outside their stoney prison.
"Do you hear that?" Cliffjumper asked.
"Yeah. It… sounds like…" Amity said in a weak tone, slowly rising up from the floor.
"Drilling!" Cliffjumper stated. "Gotta be Arcee and Luz!"
"We're… in… here!" Amity called out, but she didn't have enough strength to make it very loud.
"Amity, grab something and bang it on my foot." Cliffjumper instructed. "Can you do that?"
Amity was able to muster up enough strength to grab a nearby rock and walked over to Cliffjumper's foot with it. However, the Abomination Witch was hesitant to do what her Autobot Guardian wanted her to do.
"I don't want to hurt you." Amity said.
"I know it's hard to believe, but I'm tougher than I look. I survived a crater-sized Energon explosion, after all." Cliffjumper replied reassuringly. "Give it all you've got."
Amity was still hesitant at first, but she decided to comply by banging the rock onto Cliffjumper's foot with all her might.
(Linebreak)
Meanwhile, Luz uses the drilling machine to drill a large hole in a nearby wall. She backed the machine out and moved in to see if any of her friends were on the other side, but Luz was shocked and startled to see Megatron's face as the Decepticon Leader was buried under a lot of rubble. Megatron quickly noticed the young Human staring at him.
"I suppose helping those less fortunate would be completely out of the question, Human." Megatron commented, making Luz step back a little bit. "If that is the case, you might as well use your drill to finish me. I guarantee you will never have a better opportunity than right now."
Luz thought about it for a moment and knew that this would be the perfect opportunity to destroy Megatron once and for all, giving her Autobot friends a big chance in winning the Cybertronian War. But then, she realised that this wasn't the right way and she remained where she stood.
"Well? What are you waiting for?" Megatron questioned. "Think of the glory. Seize the day. Optimus would."
"No, he wouldn't. Not like this." Luz replied with a firm expression before walking back to the controls. "Besides, this'll still give you the chance to have another chance at trying to destroy him."
"I will be sure to sure to share the details of our little conversation with Optimus, the day I rip out his Spark!" Megatron declared as Luz left on the drilling machine.
Once the Hispanic girl was gone, Megatron began to pull himself out of the rubble.
(Linebreak)
At the same time, Amity was continuing to bang the rock on Cliffjumper's foot so that Luz will be able to hear where they are.
"Atta girl, Mittens." Cliffjumper said with an encouraging smile. "Don't stop, now."
But just then, Amity started to hear a strange cranking noise from nearby and she stopped banging.
"What was that?" Amity asked, a little bit worried.
"Nothing. Go on, keep banging." Cliffjumper replied, clearly hiding something from the Abomination Witch.
However, Cliffjumper began to grunt as his arms were shown to be shaking a bit while Amity could hear the noise again.
"Cliff, please don't lie." Amity said with a very concerned expression. "What's happening? Tell me."
"My arms. They're starting to give." Cliffjumper answered.
Amity was truly scared to hear this and her Autobot Guardian began struggling to keep up the giant boulder.
"Does it hurt?" Amity asked.
"A little." Cliffjumper replied before the boulder went down a little bit and rocks fell down.
"Cliff!" Amity exclaimed worriedly.
"Help's coming. We've just gotta guide them here." Cliffjumper said. "Hit me, again."
Amity was shown to be very hesitant this time, not wanting to make Cliffjumper even more worn-out than he already is.
"Amity, do it! It's the only way the others are gonna hear us!" Cliffjumper stated.
Amity sighed in defeat and grabbed the rock again before bashing it two times on Cliffjumper's foot. But then, she loses her strength and collapses into her feet as she and Cliffjumper could still hear the drilling machine outside.
"Are they any closer?" Cliffjumper asked as a few more rocks fell down.
"I'm not sure. Everything's starting to feel… a bit hazy for me." Amity said, struggling to catch her breath while crawling on the floor. "I don't think I can… use my magic, right now."
But suddenly, Amity and Cliffjumper began to hear some noises from just outside their stoney prison and it sounded like someone was moving away all the boulders.
"Heheheheh, yes!" Cliffjumper remarked with a smile.
"Luz and Arcee found us!" Amity said happily.
Some boulders got blown away from the wall and made a hole, but a certain sinister laugh was heard on the other side and the one responsible for making it was revealed to be Starscream.
"Put any doubt of my allegiance to rest." Starscream said, thinking the one trapped in the stoney prison was Megatron.
However, the air commander was very surprised to find Amity and Cliffjumper on the other side as the Abomination Witch stood up.
"What's he doing down here?" Amity asked nervously.
"Amity, get behind me, now!" Cliffjumper instructed.
Starscream bashed his way through the boulders and made an entrance big enough for him to fit through, while Amity avoided all of the boulders and ran behind Cliffjumper. Seeing as she was unable to use any magic in her exhausted state, she wouldn't fare well against Starscream.
"Well, well, if it isn't Cliffjumper and his pet vermin." Starscream sneered before noticing the red Autobot's current position "my, you do have your hands full, don't you, Autobot?"
"Do whatever you want to me, Scream! But let the girl go!" Cliffjumper demanded as Starscream started to walk around him.
"No! I'm not leaving you!" Amity replied while hugging his foot.
"It appears that the little witch wishes to remain." Starscream said before he reached down to Amity, causing her to move away.
"Starscream, don't push me!" Cliffjumper stated warningly, still struggling to keep the boulder up.
"You like playing with the big robots, don't you, little girl?" Starscream asked with a smirk.
Amity cautiously moved her way bellow Cliffjumper before she turned around and yelped in fight at seeing Starscream in front of her. The air commander chuckled sinisterly as he tried to grab Amity, only for Cliffjumper to quickly kick him into a rock pile. Amity saw that her Autobot Guardian was really starting to struggle with the giant boulder above them as it was slowly lowering down, while Starscream recovered and growled in anger.
"That's it, Autobot!" Starscream shouted. "I will-"
"You'll what? Huh?" Cliffjumper interrupted. "Make me bring down the ceiling ontop of all of us? Run, Amity!"
Amity didn't want to leave her Autobot Guardian behind and she rightly hugged his leg.
"Yes. Run, Amity. I would love to see you try. Really, I would." Starscream said mockingly.
Before Starscream could do anything else, he began feeling some rumbling noises and the drilling machine suddenly burst through the nearby wall. The drill part rammed into Starscream and bashed it aside as the machine itself came to a halt, while Cliffjumper saw Luz appearing on the main controls.
"Sorry if I'm a little late!" Luz called out.
"Luz, get Amity out of here! Now!" Cliffjumper ordered as the boulder was now pressing against his back.
Luz nodded before she hoped off the controls and landed on the track, reaching her hand out towards Amity. The Abomination Witch looked back at Cliffjumper and tried to help him out.
"Come on, sweet potato! We've got to go!" Luz stated urgently, making Amity stop where she was.
"Just go, Amity! Don't worry about me!" Cliffjumper told her, grunting even more.
As tears began streaming down her cheeks, Amity then grabbed Luz's hand and the Hispanic girl pulled her onto the drilling machine.
"We can't leave Cliff!" Amity protested sadly.
"We'll come back! I promise!" Luz stated.
She pulled one of the levers back and made the drilling machine reverse out of the area, while Starscream stood back up and turned to Cliffjumper.
"And then there were two." Starscream said.
(Linebreak)
Luz had managed to drive the drilling machine back to where she previously came from as Amity began fearing the worst for Cliffjumper.
"Arcee will save him, won't she?" Amity asked, wiping her tears away.
"I hope so. You and I just need to find a way out of this cave before Megatron digs himself free." Luz replied.
"Megatron's here, too?!" Amity questioned fearfully.
Luz began to drive the drilling machine away to find the exit, but then a Cybertronian foot stomped in front of them and the two girls gasped in surprise as their vehicle came to a halt.
(Linebreak)
Back with Cliffjumper, he was basically being pinned down by the giant boulder ontop of him as Starscream approached his victim with a chuckle.
"If you think I'm gonna beg for mercy, Starscream, forget it." Cliffjumper said, glaring at the air commander.
"Eh, yes. Begging for mercy would be quite pathetic, wouldn't it?" Starscream asked, not wanting to admit that he did it himself earlier when he arrived in the cave. "Well, as much as I would love to finish what I started all those days ago, you're much more valuable to me alive. Imagine Megatron's appreciation when I not only rescue him, but deliver an Autobot. I believe that would restore my stature quite nicely."
But then, Starscream heard a blaster charging up behind me and he slowly turned around to see Arcee aiming her weapon at his face.
"Don't move, Starscream." Arcee said firmly, causing the air commander to freeze in fear before she turned to her Partner. "Hey, Cliff."
"Hey, Cee." Cliffjumper greeted, smiling awkwardly.
"Raise your hands." Arcee ordered Starscream.
Starscream stuttered nervously before he groaned in defeat, knowing that he had no other choice but to comply.
(Linebreak)
The sun was starting to rise up outside the cave as Arcee and Cliffjumper drove out the entrance. Luz and Amity got off their respective Autobot Guardians as both of them transformed.
"We could finish them, here and now." Arcee said.
"Too bad Jackie's not here to let us borrow one of his grenades." Cliffjumper admitted, crossing his arms.
"Hey, guys? Do you think Optimus would finish them, right now?" Luz asked in curiosity, still thinking about that short confrontation she had with Megatron.
"No. He probably wouldn't." Arcee answered, knowing the good intentions her leader possessed. "Not like this."
"I know you'd make the same choice as well, Luz." Amity said with a smile as she held her girlfriend's hand. "You and Optimus have really good hearts."
"Thanks, cariño." Luz replied kindly.
"We should head back home, now. I really need to clean myself." Cliffjumper said, looking at the dust all over his body.
"We all do, Cliff." Arcee commented before all four of them walked away.
(Linebreak)
Back inside the cave, Starscream was seen lifting the giant boulder that Cliffjumper carried from earlier and he was having a lot more trouble than him. Tons of rocks were falling down as Starscream struggled greatly before he suddenly noticed Megatron in a hole he clearly made himself.
"Master! You're alive!" Starscream said with a relived smile. "Thank the Allspark!"
Megatron said nothing and he was simply staring at his Second In Command with an ominous expression.
"I-I did not abandon you, master! I returned to save you!" Starscream stated.
"Save me?" Megatron repeated.
The giant boulder began crushing Starscream beneath it's weight as the air commander was beginning to bend down.
"Look into my Spark, Lord Megatron. My intentions were pure. Please! Have mercy!" Starscream begged, desperate to escape being crushed to death.
Megatron still said nothing to him, but then the Decepticon Leader grew a sinister smile as he came to a decision.
