Strongarm's POV

I leave Skylar in my wake.

I gotta get there faster!

Two Autobots won't stand a chance!

I transform and start to run.

Wow! I haven't ran in ages! Sideswipe was right! I should be training more!

I transform into vehicle mode again and keep going.

The dam comes into view.

I can clearly see Bumblebee, and Sideswipe being pushed back by Steeljaw's mass forces.

Scrap!

I pull up behind my teammates with a squealing of tires and run over to Bee'.

"Lieutenant! What's the plan?" I ask.

"Just keep trying to get through and back to Steeljaw!" He replies while taking a blow to the head from one of our enemies.

I turn to Sideswipe.

"I have a plan and I'll need your speed..." I say.

He nods.

"Sure" He replies.

"Sir! Are you okay here? Sideswipe and I have a plan!" I ask.

"Go ahead!" He replies through gritted teeth.

I glance over at Sideswipe.

Good! For once he's actually cooperating!

"Follow my lead." I hiss.

We transform and drive up the hill.

"Okay here's the plan." I start. "I'll fire a few warning shots and then you go in and knock down the Decepticon barricade. Make sure Bee' and I are behind you for backup."

"Okay! Here goes the first Autobot to go Decepticon bowling!" He jokes.

I fire the first warning shots.

Below me, the fight stops and everyone looks around for the shooter.

"Now!" I hiss to Sideswipe.

He revs his engine and sets off down the hill.

I see Bee' shoot me a bewildered glance.

All of a sudden I hear a crash.

I peer out from my hiding spot and see a pile of Decepticons lying on the ground.

Their through!

My plan had worked!

I quickly join my teammates at the bottom.

Together, we creep into the dark space.

"He's not here!" I hear Bumblebee mutter. "He must've escaped while we were fight off the barricade."

We transform and speed back to the scrapyard empty handed.

So much for my plan to be a success...
