BurnStar was coming to the base when she finds that something was not right. She spots the broken window, from which Laserbeak came through. She runs inside to find agent Fowler, Bulkhead, and Smokescreen down.

"Guys!" she said and ran to them. But then she notices something else. Ratchet wasn't there and neither Elena. When she tried to reach her by Star connection she soon learned what had happened. Laserbeak had active Soundwave back and he took others down and he was going Ratchet and Elena. There's no need to guess that he had taken both. But then another thing came to her mind.

"Please no..." she said to herself. She runs to upstairs and found that all the element items and music box were gone too. Soundwave must have taken them as well. "Scrap..." she said. Right then Arcee called to the base and Agent Fowler, Bulkhead, and Smokescreen started to recover.

"Arcee?" called Bulkhead.

"Bulkhead, what's going on there?" asked Arcee. "Where's Ratchet?"

"He...he is gone."

"Elena is gone as well," informed BurnStar. "And so are Predacon elements and Star music box."

When Team came back Optimus went check the hangar of their quarters, just in case if Elena has gone there. But she wasn't. Just like BurnStar told, Soundwave took both Ratchet and Elena. Optimus felt first desperate for letting his daughter once again fell into Decepticon hands, but then again, if what Ratchet told is true. If Megatron plans to rebuilt Omega lock, it will require Star Supreme, so he won't hurt her. And since they also took the elements with her, she may figure something to get out. In this, he returned back to the base. So far the only clue they got is a little piece of Laserbeak, which Smokescreen managed to blow off. Now, the question is what Decepticons want from Ratchet. If their plan was to eliminate them, why to leave Bulkhead and Smokescreen alive and they hadn't called for ransoms. Well, to be honest, if they would have, they would have asked Elena exchange for Ratchet, but they took both, it's not that. This means Decepticons want something from Ratchet. By what WheelJack went to check on computers since Ratchet has been working on unfinished synthetic energon formula, it must be what Decepticons want. And since Formula rightfully belong to Star Supreme, who Elena is, there's possible that she is kept safe, until the formula is complete and Omega lock rebuilt. But that's when they realized another thing. If Soundwave just escaped here, with Ratchet and Elena, Decepticons know their location.

"ARGH! I think my head-casket will blow up," said BurnStar. "Now Decepticons have all they need to finish Omega lock and use it on Earth!"

"I'm still confused on one thing," said Smokescreen. "Why Soundwave took also Elements and music box?"

"FallStar must have told about the elements to Megatron before she was defeated," said Arcee.

"And since BurnStar had watched over them, Soundwave must have learned where they were," said Bulkhead.

"Scrap!" said BurnStar.

"But that still doesn't explain with the music box," said WheelJack. "What could be so special about it, besides that it can be disk monitor."

"Maybe because it was next to the elements, Soundwave must have thought it is the last item for fire element," said BurnStar.

"Is it?" asked Arcee.

"Hey, I'm not the one who picks them. I don't even know all the items on this planet that proper for them. I don't even know what is a proper item for the fire since it burns all off."

"Maybe there's one." said agent Fowler.

"What?" asked BurnStar. "What it is?"

"I will explain later, but right now we got to figure out what to do with "our location" problem."

Meanwhile the Warship Nemesis, Megatron had learned that Ratchet hadn't managed to finish either the synthetic energon. Which why it reminds unstable. But also that formula belongs rightfully Star supreme. And by recent memories of Ratchet, he and Star Supreme had tried to work together, when they could. So, one thing is clear, that not to mistreat an important person, this Star Supreme must at least be there watching over when synthetic energon comes complete. Who knows if she learns to make it by herself. But now since it's obvious that Star Supreme is 'young' to learn such a thing, she requires help to learn, which he must make Ratchet finish it. In this, he decided to keep both separated. He wouldn't allow to give them chance if they plan to get away.

After talking with Ratchet, he had left him with two choices work on Syn-en or let his team and humans die, since they now know their location. But of course he wasn't going to let Autobots live, so he sends Starscream with his armada to finish them.

Then he moved to sell, where Elena was kept in a pod. She was awakened now but had her back on Megatron.

"Whatever you're going to say won't change my mind. I won't give the formula and neither will Ratchet finish it," she said without even looking at him.

"You're getting into your role as Star Supreme," said Megatron. "The doc will be the other thing to handle and I'll make him finish the formula, but that won't mean nothing if you wouldn't be part of it."

"Why would you care?" asked Elena. "Why would it matter if I'm part of it? You had all things you need to finish it, even with one mad scientist and two docs."

"True," said Megatron. "I can just add you to the omega lock by now. But then I would break the promise I once made."

"Promise?" asked Elena, who turned around. "What you mean by promise?"

"Did the Stars ever told you, that formula once belongs to Star Supreme?" he asked.

"It was her duty to create synthetic energon. But when she died, the council took it from her and made scientists make it themselves. That's why it was found in the cylinder as in science formula. Like 'alchemy' as we call it."

"Yes," said Megatron. "BrightStar told me this after I saved her from her punishment. Once I had her save and she had recovered, I promised her that formula will return back to its owner."

"Which would have been her if she ever became Star Supreme."

"Don't get me wrong," said Megatron. "Since your presence was still too unknown, it was obvious that she would have become next Star Supreme and carried the tradition to find you, just what it has been with others. But because the action of the council she lost that chance and FallStar became to be."

"FallStar?" in this Elena got up and hit the glass. "You knew, FallStar was BrightStar's double-personality!"

"You think I wouldn't notice," said Megatron. "I looked after her for ages. I could see the difference in her when FallStar became stronger. I knew that if it wasn't for her, FallStar would have betrayed me as well and killed me for sure."

"I think Starscream did that job quite well..." said Elena with sarcasm.

"Yes. But what I learned by how FallStar killed Autobots, without BrightStar I wouldn't be standing here right now."

"And yet, you didn't do nothing for her?" said Elena.

"Trust me, I did try," said Megatron. "But she could have sense any kind of treason against her and as you already know, killing her would have meant losing BrightStar."

Elena remained quiet for that. BrightStar did die because she got separated from her other side.

"Why would you care?" asked Elena, while tears started to form in her eyes.

"You think I would let something that precious to die?" asked Megatron. "As Star, she was the most needed member and she was one of those had stood loyal to me, since the war."

Elena, couldn't help, but notice something on Megatron. By how he mentioned BrightStar, there was more than a just important member.

"You loved her..." she said. Megatron didn't seem to react much. Either that it was true, or he didn't want to say it was true.

"I intend to keep my promise," he said. "Which is why I want you to be part of finishing the formula."

"I won't do it," she said and turned her back to him.

"Not if I leave your friends to live?" he asked.

"You won't do it," said Elena. "You wouldn't lose the opportunity to destroy your enemies once you know their location." deep inside Elena wished he wouldn't.

"Perhaps," he said. "But what if I spare some of them. Like your Father, Optimus Prime, his beloved Arcee, Commander Magnus, the scout, anyone else you want to add?"

Then he felt hit on from behind and turned around. There was earthy arm coming from the plant pot, which was secured just like the rest of items. By how things looked the elements react to her and since she wanted to hit him, the earth element did it for him.

"Don't play with me, Megatron," she said in anger. "I won't give you the formula and neither won't Ratchet and before you had your Omega lock working, My father will come to stop you."

"We shall see..." he said and left.

Once he left, Elena checked something from Star connection and sighed for relief.

With Autobots, luckily they managed to cover themselves from Decepticon attack. With little paint job, cons blow up the wrong hangar. Of course, that left BurnStar to rest because she was the one who did the paint job and by her talon as a phoenix. Meanwhile, Raf was asked to check any info on the piece of Lasebeak. By how things looked it was still responding, but since warship's location is blogged it can't help much. But then came another idea. What if it could fly back there itself, they could follow it and get there. All they just need is some parts.

Optimus was now in his quarter. He was waiting when Raf and WheelJack had managed to build the device to send the piece to war-ship. But right now something else was troubling him. If Megatron somehow gets Ratchet to finish the formula, that means he will be killed after that and Elena will be used on Omega lock once more and who knows, she might even die this time. He never forgets that scene in his mind. She screaming in agony, while her body begins to give up.

His thoughts were interrupted when Arcee came in.

"Raf is almost ready," she said. In this Optimus only nodded. Arcee felt that something was up, so she walks to him. "Everything okay?"

"I just..." he said. "I just don't want to find her like it was in Cybertron in Omega lock."

Arcee knew what he meant. No one ever forgets what they saw to happened with Elena. If Megatron plans to use the lock on Earth it will be Deja-Vu all over again. She moved her hands to his face to make him look at her.

"We will get our daughter back," she said.

This surprised Optimus, but right then Bulkhead came.

"Its ready," he said.

In this Optimus get up and started to go out with Arcee. It's time to get their daughter back.
