Starscream flew over to where Megatron was flying not knowing how or why the former leader of the Decepticons was back but was overjoyed that he was alive.

"Megatron you still function that's great." Starscream chimed happily. Only to suddenly be blasted out of the sky as Megatron opened fire on him.

The blast hit the seeker so hard it forced him to transform but Starscream quickly recovered and change back to his jet mode as he was about to hit the ground and flew back up into the sky.

"Look I'm sorry I killed you I didn't want to it was a mercy kill and you told me to do it!" Starscream whined.

Starscream then noticed Slipstream fighting Megatronus who had scanned a jet made and Starscream now recognized as The Fallon.

He knew she was in trouble up against the former prime. And that both Megatron and Megatronus had been flying to where the base was located.

Starscream quickly flew to where Slipstream was and fired his missiles at Megatronus and got him right in the faceplates with one.

"Go warn everyone to evacuate the base there are humans in there who could get hurt!" Starscream shouted to Slipstream. "I'll hold these two off as long as I can!"

But just then Slipstream was shot down by Megatron. Starscream without wasting a second flew after her then transformed in midair and caught her then landed and gently laid the now unconscious seeker femme on the ground where she'd be safe.

Then transformed and flew at Megatron and Megatronus and opened fire on both of them determined not to let them reach the base.

He activated his com-link and called base hoping he'd be able to get the message through while keeping Megatron and Megatronus at bay long enough for everyone to get out of the base.

"This is Starscream Megatron and Megatronus are on there way to the base!" Starscream yelled into his com-link. "I don't know why but Megatron has gone bad again!"

Then Megatronus saw what the seeker was doing and flew over and started trying to blast him out of the sky.

While on the ground Jack, Shayna and DeAnn had hard booms and noticed Starscream was in a dogfight. And knew something was wrong so ran to base to get help.

Starscream saw them go and was glad they were going to let the others know what was going on. But he decided to continue yelling it through his com-link wanting to make sure the others knew what was coming.

But before he could say anything else he had to dodge more blasts that where being shot at him.

Megatron the whole time was being forced to watch the entire thing not being able to stop it while Unicron was using his body.

He saw Megatronus about to land a shot on Starscream that would kill the seeker if it hit it's mark.

"NOO!" He yelled as he actually regained control of his body for a second and fire his fussion cannon on Megatronus knocking him out before he could shoot Starscream.

"How dare you interfere!" Unicron hissed as he regained control and used his dark energon powers to burn Megatron. "Now I will teach you your place!"

Then he used Megatron's body to fly into Starscream and hit the seeker knocking him into the ground and making him transform on impact.

Then continued to beat Starscream senseless. The seeker now had scratchs, dents and cracks that covered his frame and was leaking energon in places including his mouth.

Unicron continued to beat him using Megatron's body.

"No please stop!" Megatron begged. He had beaten Starscream several times during the war and wished he could take all of them back. But now Unicron was forcing him to do it again.

"Megatron what happened why did you go back to your old ways?" Starscream asked as he tried to crawl away only to be grabbed be the ankles and yanked back.

"Silence insolent worm!" Unicron hissed as he struck Starscream hard across the faceplates knocking him back. Then stomped on one of his wings making him cry out in pain.

Megatron was now doing something he'd never done in his life he was pleading. Pleading with Unicron to stop harming the seeker.

Then he held Starscream by the neckcables and started to squeeze them.

"Wait your not Megatron are you?" Starscream asked. "Unicron?"

"I'll give you a hint." Unicron said as he tossed the seeker foreword and fire Megatron's fussion cannon on him.

Starscream went limp and fell to the ground with a hole through his midsection and his body badly charred.

"NOO! STARSCREEAM!" Megatron yelled seeing the seeker's charred and broken body laying there.

Then Megatron did something he had never done before he cried. Unicron had not only killed Starscream but used his body to do it.

"We're done here." Unicron said as Megatronus who had regained consciousness joined him and they flew off Unicron had no intention of attacking the base yet he just wanted to cause a panic to send a message.

Just whipping everyone out would be too easy he wanted to make them suffer.

As they were flying off Slipstream regained consciousness and saw Starscream and rushed over to where he was laying and sobbed next to his frame now grief stricken.

But then she noticed something sparkle and saw that Starscream's optics still had a faint glow. He was still alive.

"This is Slipstream I need an emergency ground bridge and I need Ratchet to get the medbay ready!" Slipstream shouted through her com-link. "Starscream's hurt and maybe dying I don't know if he has much time!"

Then she stayed with him till a ground bridge opened and they rushed him to the medbay.

Ratchet got to work trying to treat Starscream injuries as soon as they put him on the table.

And everyone stayed outside the medbay worried about the seeker. Then Ratchet came out and everyone went over to see what he had to say.

"He'll live." Ratchet told them. "Starscream's body was damaged beyond repair but his spark was intact." "I just have to work on building him a new body."

"He's awake and can speak but he'll be immobile until I get his new body made and his spark transferred into it." Ratchet explained.

Then they all went back to see him he was hooked to several machines that were keeping him functional until he could get his new body.

"Guess I'm gonna be out of commission for awhile." Starscream told them not sounding happy. "I'm sorry guys I got myself practically scrapped and now the team is down one flyer when we still need to rescue Knock Out and Arcee."

"What are you talking about Starscream you were a hero back there you risk your own life and well being to not only save me but warn everyone about Megatron and Megatronus." Slipstream said to him.

"Wait they know where the base is!" Said Starscream as it dawned on him they wouldn't be safe there right now.

"Don't worry we're currently on Griffin Rock in the Rescue Bot's base." Bumblebee explained. And Starscream was glad that they were somewhere safe.

"Why did Megatron choose to go back to his old ways?" Optimus asked sounding saddened.

"He didn't Unicron is in his body again." Starscream told him then explained everything that had went down. And they all agreed they had to stop Unicron and Megatronus and save Megatron.

"That was really brave the way you warned everyone." Agent Fowler told the seeker. "You were just like Paul Revere."

"Who?" Asked Starscream not knowing much about American history.

"Oh Russell told me about him." Said Grimlock. "He was the guy who road a horse around town and yelled that red jackets were coming to warn everyone."

"Red Coats." Shayna corrected the Dinobot.

"Why would they need to be warned about coats aren't they supposed to keep humans warm?" Asked Starscream who was now confused.

"No the Red Coats is what they called the British Army who were going to attack them at night when they were all asleep and Paul Revere warned them so they were ready to fight when they got there and won that battle." DeAnn explained.

"That sounds like an interesting story." Said Ultra Magnus who happened to be in the hallway. "Earth history is always fascinating."

"I'll tell you all about it." Said Agents Fowler as he walk outside with him.

"It'll take awhile for me to build your new body." Ratchet told Starscream. "So just try to relax in the meantime."

"Hey until my new body is ready I'm immobile I think that's as relaxed as a bot can get." Starscream said then chuckled at his own comment.

"I'll stay here and keep you company." DeAnn told him. And Slipstream decided to stay as well and went over and kissed him on the helm.

"That was to thank you for catching me when Megatronus shot me down." She said to him as they smiled at each other. And DeAnn smiled thinking they made a nice couple.

Everyone else went outside to talk about what they were gonna do about Unicron and Megatronus. And how they were gonna find and save Arcee and Knock Out.

When suddenly Chief Burns got a call form someone named Cade Yeager who said he found a transformer that came out of a portal of some kind then described a space bridge and said a badly damaged cybertronian had come out then collapsed in the field near his barn.

"You guys have them there on Griffin Rock right?" Cade asked. "Can you help me with this one? I've repaired most of the damage but it won't respond to anything."

"Sound like they must be in stasis lock." Said Ratchet after Chief Burns told him what Cade said.

"We'll be right there." Chief Burns told Cade before hanging up. "Stay with them in the meantime."

"Hey I just realized that guy practically has the same first name as me." Said Kade who had been standing by his partner Heatwave.

They opened the ground bridge and hurried through it knowing it was probably Arcee or Knock Out but Cade hadn't said what gender the cybertronian was and there was only one if it was one of them what happened to the other one?

And how did the one Cade found escape, what injured them? And what was the whereabouts and condition of the other one?

To Be Continued.

Wow that was a long chapter I was actually planning for this to be two chapters but I was on a roll and decided to just do one long chapter. The next chapter take's place during the same time as this chapter. And is about Arcee and Knock Out and will reveal who the cybertronian Cade found is at the end of it. I'll try to get it up soon in the meantime feel free to send feedback.
