Starscream!

What's the matter?
You got lead in your feet?

Don't make me that.

Too late to stop now!

You dared att*ck me! Destroy him!

Wait, mighty Galvatron! He's not a traitor!
He's only malfunctioning.

Get out of here! Leave me alone!

Not on your life!

Scourge! Drop your w*apon!

THERE IS NO REASONING WITH HIM!
DESTROY HIM! HE'S LOST HIS MIND!

Galvatron! Its not me! I mean
- I'm not myself!

Do you really think he's
going to believe you?

Destroy him!

No! Don't sh**t!

What madness has possessed scourge?

Give me that blaster!

Nah, get one of your own!

Scourge is but one mad warrior!

Get up and face him, you cowards!

He's a traitor! Give him no quarter!

Where are you taking me?

To Unicron!

I want my old body back and he's
the only one who can give it to me!

Your wound is deep, Galvatron.
What are your orders?

Never mind my wound. I want Scourge.

Predacons! Follow that traitor
and bring him back to the Chaar!

Galvatron!
The Sweeps and I should be the ones to go!

As you wish, Cyclonus.

But do not fail me,
or I willl send the Predacons after you!

Halt! We can go no further, without
the Autobots detecting our presence.

It is obvious,
Scourge has decided to change alliances.

Why would he do that? He's our leader!

Let's melt him anyway!

He att*cked Galvatron and now travels
to Cybertron to join the Autobots.

Galvatron needs to know about this!

Now we must reactivate the only mind,

capable of giving back what
Galvatron took from me.

I'm refuse to help you.

Listen, Scourge, give me any more trouble,
and I'll never vacate the premises!

I'll stay in your body forever!
Now let's get to work.

That should do it!

We did it! We reactivated him!

I am Unicron. Who awakens me?

Unicron,
allow me to introduce myself.

I am Starscream.

What do you wish from Unicron?

I want my old body back,
so let's make a deal.

Yes. Unicron can grant your request,

but only after you have
performed three labours.

Only three? Name them!

Hey! Where do you think you're going?

You can't go back to the Chaar!

You're right. I've got nowhere to go.

Because of you,
Galvatron thinks I tried to k*ll him!

Calm down.

Silence!

You will deliver the
eyes of Metroplex to me,

that I may see you again.

Get this inspection over with.

Everything seems ship shape.

You should be proud,
Blaster, you and the others

are doing a top notch
job as far as I can see.

Thank you, Kup. We take our
duty here seriously.

Hey, Blaster.
That sure is some serious music.

Probably scared away anybody
trying to get into this place!

Kup, look out!

Kup, that expl*si*n blew out
Metroplex's security system!

The readouts show, every
entrance to the city is wide open!

And we can't shut them!

Any intruders indicated?

Nothings working!
We can't even sound the security alert!

Bumblebee! You and Spike cover
Metroplex's Brain Vault!

Powerglide! You and Warpath
get outside and find the Aerialbots!

Set up a defensive perimeter.

Blaster! You and I will stay here!
Now, get going!

Starscream!

Ah, that's better.
I was getting cold without a body.

Here's what we came for.
The eyes of Metroplex.

Do you have the photon charge?

Yes. Let us perform this labour and begone.

Hey this is just like old times, Bumblebee!

It sure is, Spike!
Oh look, the brain vault door is open!

Don't let it break!

You clumsy fool!

Lets get the other eye
and try not to drop it!

Maybe we should have
tried sneakin' up on him.

Come on! We've gotta warn the others!

If we could just make
some kind of connection...

Decepticon intruders IN MY BRAIN!

Let's go!

Decepticon intruder removes my eyes!

The giant awakes!

Set the charge.
Now crash out of here!

Come on! We're on red alert!

I don't see any enemy.

And since when,
has Scourge over there a friend?

Okay, so I spoke too soon.
Aerialbots, Transform!

Aerialbots! Wait for... oh, nevermind.

Metroplex, transform!

Look out! Metroplex has gone crazy!

Where are my eyes ?!

I don't believe it! He sh*t me!

Powerglide! Speak to me!

This just isn't my day!

The inside of Metroplex's head exploded!

Come on! The others were inside
of Metroplex when he landed!

I hope they're alright!

We've done all we can do to repair this
thing, so lets fire it up! Now!

This better work!

Great! Now to tell Rodimus
Prime the bad news.

What are we doing here?

Because of you,
one of Metroplex's eyes was destroyed,

but I suspect that one of Trypticon's
eyes will work just as well.

So, we'll just hide this one here,

while we go get another one.

We're two of the hardest charging
dudes the Decepticons' got,

and what does Galvatron give us?

Duty on this dinky planet!

Yeah! We should be leading the - Scourge!

Hold it right there!
Galvatron put a bounty on your head!

My Decepticon comrades,
theres been a misunderstanding.

I was on a secret
mission for Galvatron.

Sure you were!
Let's see your security pass!

Security pass?

Passes? Passes ?!

Starscream!

I don't have to show
you no stinking passes.

Say goodbye, Runamuck!

Runabout, what are you doing ?!

Nighty night!

Scourge! This way, hurry!

I really hate all this running around!

What is the purpose of
possessing Astrotrain

To carry both eyes back to Unicron!
He's got more cargo room than you do!

They are there! Blast 'em!

Get in here, Scourge,
and don't drop the eye!

Depart! With all haste!

First, you two let Scourge and
Starscream steal one of Trypticon's eyes.

And then you two allowed Astrotrain
to be used as their escape vehicle.

So Scourge is helping
Starscream voluntarily,

and you four were unable to stop them!

Well, all I can say is...

BWWWAAAAAAA!

Now that Astrotrain has served his purpose,

I will let the Autobots dispose of him!

Why would Starscream's ghost

and Scourge remove Metroplex's
eyes and blow him up?

I don't know.
All of Cybertron is on full alert.

We're ready for the worst.

Hey, sound the red alarm!

Theres something coming up.
From the looks of it, I'd

say the Decepticons have
everything to do with it!

I mean, who else would
just come barging in

on us like this?
You know, I really like to--

Early warning displayed on main screen!

Sorry to interrupt, Blurr, that bogey's
moving in fast! We'd better move on it!

Get me a visual on the main screen.

Astrotrain. And no telling how
many Decepticons are on board.

Protectobots!

Man defensive laser batteries and be
prepared to blast them out of the sky!

Here he comes! Lock and load!

Locked and loaded!

This is where I bail out, Astrotrain!
Happy landings!

Aiming...

and f*ring!

Wait a minute!
What am I doing on Cybertron?

I am pleased with these, eyes.

They function alike,
yet their circuits are not the same.

Uh, there was a minor
mishap with one of them, but...

Quiet, Scourge.
Now, what's the second task, Unicron?

You will deliver the Decepticon
city, known as Trypticon.

But we were just there!

You know, for the strong silent
type, you sure talk too much!

We'd be happy to bring Trypticon here!

Why did Galvatron have you
att*ck Cybertron all by yourself?

Are you stupid or just obedient?

I-I can't remember!

And he took both of Metroplex's eyes.
But why?

Hey, I was just sitting here
admiring the moonrise when I figured out

it'd look so much better
on full magnification, but

when I punched it up on
the screen i noticed...

Unicron got his eyes back!

I was just... getting to that!

Now it makes sense!

Scourge and Starscream took
those eyes for Unicron!

I've got a bad feeling about all this.

What's wrong?
There's nobody here but Autobots.

That's just it.

We know the Scourge and
Starscream brought those eyes here,

and somebody reactivated
these circuits.

So? Where are they?

Look out! Scourge!

Spy mission, huh?

Inside! Scourge has us zeroed in!

Come and catch me!

It is in Unicron's hands now!

With Scourge out there,
there's not much we can do.

Well, he can't stay out there forever.

I have awakened.

The Autobots have been repulsed!
And to think I doubted you.

But they will be back!
It would be dangerous for me to remain!

You will stay until the
labours have been completed.

What I have given you I can also take away.

Hold on, chaps!
Sky Lynx is back to save the day!

We're going to get reinforcements!

You've failed!

But Galvatron,
there was nothing we could do!

Yeah! Starscream's ghost took over my body!

Silence, you cowards,
and prepare to be scrapped!

Track them down like the Markonian
dogs and terminate them .

I want to know what's going
on and I want to know now!

Trypticon is transforming
without authorization!

Trypticon! I order you to stop!

I'm just borrowing him for a little while!

Don't worry about a thing!

Starscream! You are a dead mechanism!

Of course I'm dead, Galvatron!

But not for much longer.

And then are you going to be sorry!

I'm already sorry!

Decepticons, transform!

The head of Unicron, has drawn
the Decepticons into our midst.

Trypticon's been sighted leading
a squad of them towards Cybertron.

Okay, Unicron, here it is!
Trypticon!

Now, what's the final task?

The second labour is not yet complete.

What?

Remove Trypticon's transformation cog,

and install it within my head.

Get inside! I'll hold them off!

The Decepticons are attacking Trypticon!

And he's fighting back!

Decepticons! Retreat!

Haha! Hey, that was fun!

Yeah? What about the third labour?
Let's get it over with!

Connect my head to the
planet Cybertron.

I will then have a new body.

I'll be complete again,

able to devour all
worlds in my path.

You've got it! The sooner I
get my own body, the better!

Hey, I didn't buy into this! I'm gone!

Let him go.

You must complete the third labour.

Galvatron, don't sh**t!
We must stop Unicron!

He wants Cybertron for his body!

I couldn't sh**t you if I tried!

Trypticon has neutralized
all our weapons!

Look what we found outside.

You've got a lot of guts coming here.

Theres no time for that!
Unicron wants Cybertron for his new body!

So that's what this is all about.

Well we can't fight them head on,

but we can att*ck them from within
Cybertron when they make the connection.

Do it!

Well, we're here!

Now we gotta find a way to stop
Starscream from doing what Unicron wants!

But Unicron's too powerful!
There is nothing we can do!

Oh yeah? Watch this!

Yes. My resurrection is at hand.

Now make the external connections!

I can't control it anymore!

Alright!

- We did it! - Take that, Starscream!

Haha! No body for Unicron!

Unicron! If you want the connection made,

you'd better give me a new body now!

You shall have it.

I live again!

Now, do my bidding.

Lets plant the energon
expl*sives and get out of here!

Complete the connection!

Ha! Do it yourself!

What happened back there?

Mighty Galvatron! What is that?

Its Starscream! Blast him!

But he is a ghost!

Die, you worthless...!

Noooooo...

Wait a minute. Since when do ghosts
tumble out of control through space?

In light of the information you gave us,

I'm allowing you to go free.

Let's get out of here
before he changes his mind.

Magnus, I congratulate
you on a mission well done.

You two make me proud.

There is jusy one more thing.

Whats that, Rodimus?

Well, I need someone to
lead a salvage expedition--

to Unicron - to recover Metroplex's eyes.

Just kidding.

The expl*si*n probably would have damaged

them beyond repair.
We'll construct new ones.
