Wrecker; Hunting
The Bridge, Nemesis
Soundwave was in a line with Dreadwing, Knock Out and Hardshell, “How is this possible?!” Megatron asked, walking down the line, Fury. Radiating from his processor, “Four relics, each within our grasp. And yet, only Soundwave has returned with something other than an excuse!” he said, walking by her, “Remind me, why does he keep the others?” Vigilem asked, “Quantity against The Autobots.”
Megatron had went and stopped before The Insecticon, “Tell me, Hardshell. What is yours?!” he had demanded of The Insecticon, “May I kill him?” Hardshell had asked of Soundwave, “No.” She said, so he had given Megatron an answer, “I… have none, My Lord.” Hardshell had said to him, “We failed to retrieve The Tox–En.” he said, “But, The Green Autobot has been terminated.” he said, making her pause.
That… gave Soundwave mixed feelings at what happened but Megatron was slightly pleased, “Then perhaps this day is not lost after all.” Megatron said, Jealousy. Came from Knock Out, “If that is true.” He said, “It has been a while since anyone has extinguished an Autobot's Spark.” The CMO had said to Hardshell, angering him as he had went and responded.
“Because it has been a while since an Insecticon warrior has been provided the opportunity to do so.” He snarled to Knock Out, “Really now? Because the bug under my recent command was utterly useless.” Knock Out said, insulting The Hive, that was not a smart move as The Insection roared, ready to kill, “Enough! Hardshell, are you certain the one called Bulkhead was exterminated?”
“By my very own hand, Lord Megatron.” he had said, satisfying Megatron, “Does this please you?” Hardshell had asked of Soundwave, she took a vent before giving an answer to him, “You slayed an enemy, well done.” pleasing Hardshell as she had went and walked away to get back to work and with that, she had silently hoped that it was at least quick for Bulkhead.

Autobot Outpost Omega One, Nevada
Wheeljack had drove in at a breakneck pace before transforming and landing before them, seeing what had happened and grim at his brother in arms in stasis, “What’s the damage, Doc?” Wheeljack had asked, “Bulkhead suffered massive trauma to his central neural conduit.” but Wheeljack wasn’t worried, “I’ve watched you work.” he said walking to the medic, “You’re a maestro.” he said.
But Ratchet wasn’t convinced, “The Tox-En exposure has caused system-wide shutdown on a sub-micronic level.” he listed, “I can't even begin to operate until Bulkhead regains some strength.” he said, angering him when he had decided upon a target, “You gonna tell me who did this to him?” Wheeljack asked, wanting his vengeance against The bot that did this.
“At the moment, I believe it is best to focus our attention on Bulkhead's recovery rather than revenge.” The Prime said, but Wheeljack didn’t see it that way, giving one last look to his friend before to The Prime, “You do that.” he said after walking away, transforming and driving away, as he had driven through the tunnel, he already had one of his plans ready to go and murder the bot.

The Jackhammer, USA
Wheeljack was flying to the nearest mine, when he saw something on his system, there was another lifeform on board, staying quiet and putting it on autopilot, he had tried to stay as calm as possible before he turned, weapons primed and aimed before seeing no one of there, before looking down and seeing an angry Miko there, “What are you doing here?” Wheeljack asked.
“Going after the ‘Con who hurt Bulkhead. You in?” she had asked The Wrecker, “I’m taking you back.” he said, not wanting her to get hurt in Wrecker style vengeance, “No. Wait!” she said as he went to go and alter his course, “Kid, I get it you want payback.” Wheeljack had asked, “You and me both.” he had explained to her as she climbed up the other seat, “Bulkhead's my partner, too!” she said.
Wheeljack though was not going to get her in the crossfire, “Trust me, when I find out which one of Megatron's goons jumped our boy, I'll take care of him my way.” he promised, tapping the grenade at his belt, which was when Miko sealed the deal, “I know who did it.” Miko told him, surprising Wheeljack, “Who?” he asked her, “Take me, and I’ll tell you.” she said to him.

The Nemesis
Hardshell was walking by a pair of Insecticons, pleased that they had satisfied their Queen and the Decepticon that she served, “You should have seen the Wrecker's face as his Spark expired, knowing that he perished at the hand of a true warrior.” he told them in their tongue, “Lord Megatron now understands that the difficult tasks are best assigned to an Insecticon.”
More importantly, Soundwave would be pleased, as they had hissed in agreement as they walked by a pair of MTO’s, “Pit–bound scavengers.” “Scrap eaters.” the pair said, making the three of them turn, furious, “What did you say?” Hardshell said, “You heard us.” one said as others gathered, the two groups glaring at each other before an MTO raised their blaster and Hardshell lunged.

Medical Bay, The Nemesis
Knock Out was trying to buff out all of the damage that he had, trying to get to his back or hard to find areas which his Conjunx Endura used to get, Detailing was so much easier when Breakdown was around.” He thought, missing him even more when he had heard the sound of blaster fire, making him curious when something hit his door, “What is going on out there?” he asked himself.
He had walked out of his lab to the source of the noise, “How am I supposed to concentr–” he started when an MTO was thrown his direction so he shut the door in panic, opening it again when said MTO got up and fired towards a charging Insecticon, the soldier moving out of the way as The Insecticon gave a downward slash, hitting Knock Out, hitting him into the door.
That was when he saw that the beast left a scratch on him, angering him at it, “I just buffed that!” getting up to attack the Insecticon that had grabbed him and lifted the CMO up, about to attack when Knock Out saw the CCO, “Soundwave!” he shouted, “I’d hate to SCREECH!” he said, “But I need you to control these animals!” he said, making the warrior snarl and about to attack.
Soundwave staying silent and just watching for a bit, “Scratch but don’t maim.” She said, to him before walking over to Hardshell who was hitting a pair of MTO’s together, “Have you had your fun?” She asked him, letting The Insecticon drop them, “Yes, my queen.” He said to her, “Good, because the aftermath is not going to be pretty.” She said, knowing that this was not going to be pretty afterwards.

Energon Mine TVC–15, USA
Miko and Wheeljack looked as guard had walked out, “You know where to find Decepticon Mines?” Miko asked Wheeljack, “You didn't think I've just been sitting on my can since I've been on this rock?” he had asked, leaving out the Trochia part of his work in hunting down Decepticon Operations, “But shouldn't we be at an Insecticon hive?” she had asked, taking out the bugs in their home.
“The bugs are bound by a single mind.” Wheeljack explained, remembering his research back on Cybertron to help deal with the monsters, “Trying to draw just one of them out is nearly impossible, so we're gonna make some noise.” he had told Miko, “And get The ‘Cons to hand over Hardshell.” she said, figuring out what they were planning as Wheeljack gave her part of the plan.
“Now, you can sneak in there and scope things out a lot easier than I can.” he had told her, hearing that, she had nodded and headed down there, wanting her revenge for Bulkhead as Wheeljack had watched and gotten ready for them to terminate the ‘Cons there, messing with their operations and killing the afthole that had hurt his friend as he saw Miko entering the mine now.
______________________________________________________________________
Miko was hiding behind a boulder as she had looked at the ‘Cons with her camera, “We got five, maybe six troopers in the main cavern and two more keeping an eye on things from the second floor.” she had said to Wheeljack, “Good job, kid.” Wheeljack had told her, “Keep going.” he had said, Miko gasped as she had seen more space, “There’s another chamber.” she said, seeing a ‘Con loading cubes.
“Looks like they’re just using it for storage.” she had said, leaning to get a better look when there was a static beep, “Wheeljack, you there?” she had asked, seeing a lack of communication when there was all of a sudden an explosion, making her look around before seeing a MTO fly from an explosion, crashing right before her, losing a wheel that had nearly hit her.
She looked up and saw one of the bots firing up above which was when she saw that Wheeljack was sliding, slashing at the one that was firing before he jumped down, stabbing one of the bots and doing a whirlwind to avoid fire, reflecting some of their shots and hitting the bot there as another MTO had went and charged towards him who Wheeljack had then hit and knocked him backwards.
Another had fired towards who Wheeljack tackled into a wall before another charged that he kneed while the two above had fired, Miko ran to the Energon, knowing that it was too dangerous for them to fire there when she saw that a MTO was thrown over the Energon, making her yelp before Wheeljack followed closed behind and stabbed him in the spark, ending the soldier.
He rose up and sheathed his blades, done now, seeing this, she took approached her partner in revenge, “Now what?” she had asked The Wrecker who gave a grin, “We give Megatron a shout.” he said, walking past her to the comms so that they could challenge Hardshell and give The Insecticon the fate he deserves for putting Bulkhead in stasis.

The Nemesis
Hardshell, his two helpers and Knock Out were standing before Megatron as The Velocitronian came up front, “Just look at what they’ve done.” he said, showing the light meshwounds that he had gotten before Soundwave decided to stop the Insecticons, “Spare me the dramatics, Knock Out.” He said, seeing worse from Soundwave and others under his command who kept fighting, “It’s merely a scratch.”
But Knock Out wasn’t done, “This isn’t about ME, Lord Megatron.” he said, surprising Megatron a bit that he wasn’t being self absorbed as the grounder approached, “The Insecticons are creating dissension among the ranks.” he said to Megatron, “These SAVAGES are a threat to this warship and its crew.” he said and if Airachnid were still on the board, Megatron would agree.
“They should be confined, restrained even!” He said which made Hardshell snarl, “You could not produce restraints strong enough to hold us!” Hardshell had snarled, “Lord Megatron.” An MTO had stated, making them look towards the comm officer since Soundwave was in a medically induced stasis again, “We're receiving an emergency transmission from mine TVC-15.”
“What seems to be the problem?” Megatron questioned, curious, “Unclear, my liege. The caller will speak only to you.” The Comm officer stated, intrigued, he approached and spoke through the comm, “What is it?” he asked, “Nice operation you got here, Megatron, although, technically, you might say it's under new management.” The Autobot Wheeljack had said.
This made him curious, “Wheeljack, the one who enjoys explosive devices.” Megatron said, recalling when the Wrecker faced off against Dreadwing and from the report Soundwave gave, “What can I say, Chief? I'm uncouth.” He said, sounding displeased, “And right now, I'm sitting on top of one of your big, juicy mining ops.” He told The Decepticon Leader.
But Megatron was not threatened, “The loss of one asset is hardly a blow to the Decepticon cause.” he said, having multiple operations much larger than TVC–15, “Maybe, but I'm gonna keep on hitting them, one by one, until you give me what I want.” He had threatened to the Decepticon, “And what, pray tell, would that be?” he asked, thinking it Dreading he desired to kill.
“The Insecticon scum who tried to frag Bulkhead.” Wheeljack had told him, surprising Megatron at the statement, “Tried? Are you saying the Autobot lives?” he demanded, looking to the Insecticons with Hardshell taking a step back, “He is bluffing!” Hardshell stated, “Wouldn’t bet on it.” Wheeljack had said, “So here’s the deal.” The Wrecker said, giving them his demands.
“I'm gonna transmit the coordinates of my next target. If Hardshell cares to meet me there, maybe he can save you from another loss.” Wheeljack had threatened, “And Megatron, just in case you ever wondered what three tons of exploding Energon sounds like…” he said, just as there was a sound of beeping and then an explosion of his mine, Wheeljack cutting the line then.
But Megatron was furious, “You allowed the Autobot to live?!” he demanded, turning and Hardshell had no answer, “Hmph! Bugs.” Knock Out said, “not all they’re cracked up to be.” Knock Out said, but Hardshell did not want to dissatisfy the one Soundwave commanded him to obey, “Lord Megatron, I swear upon the Allspark, the Autobot could not have survived his wounds!” Backing away from the Con.
But Megatron approached still towards the Insecticon, “Then you owe me a Spark.” he had threatened, “And if it's not the one belonging to Bulkhead, it had better be Wheeljack's!” he had threatened, and as he had nodded and gave his platitudes, hardshell thought that Airachnid had the right idea about killing him, but for now he would obey, at least until Soundwave or Airachnid gave the command.

The Jackhammer
Wheeljack was flying to the next location, a bigger mine, XI–7, when he had seen that Miko was looking tired, “Maybe you ought to power down for a while.” he said, worried about the human, “I’m good.” Miko said, rubbing her eyes, not wanting to conk out just yet, “He’s gonna make it, right?” Miko had asked, “No question, Kid.” Wheeljack had told her, knowing he’d make it.
“Bulkhead's one of the two toughest wrecking balls I've ever known, and Ratchet's a great Doc, the best.” He told her, “Yeah,” Miko said, hugging her legs, “There's no way Bulk would miss all the stuff we have planned, car sledding, worldwide smash-a-thon.” she had told him, “We’ve been making a list.” Miko had told him, “Like I said, Bulkhead's too stubborn not to pull through. I know it, and I bet you do, too.”
That seemed to relieve her a bit, “Said said one of two,” Miko said, “Was Screecher the other?” she asked him, “Sure was kid,” Wheeljack said, “I never won a fight with her, whether it was an argument or a spar, she always won.” he said, chuckling at the memory, “When she got terminated by Scorponok, we all wanted a piece of The ‘Con, even Bulk.” he told Miko.
“She must have been pretty cool.” Miko said to The Wrecker, Bulkhead never wanting to talk about the Femme, “It’s not that she was any temperature,” Wheeljack said, “She just had this way about her,” Wheeljack said, “She was a stuttering mess that preferred her Beast–Type Buzzsaw and Synth–Tone, but she was loyal” Wheeljack said to Miko, “If you got that, she would go to the Pit and back for you.”
“Is that why she was a spy in The Decepticons?” Miko had asked him, “Yeah,” he told her, “Screecher was never scared of dying,” he said, saddened, “Sometimes I wish she was a little bit, maybe she would still be around.” The Wrecker told her, remembering that one time when they went to Little Harmonex and how she played the night away, giving him more resolve as he headed to the mine as she fell asleep.

Energon Mine XI–7, USA
The Jackhammer had landed and as they did, Miko powered on, “I’m up!” She said as Wheeljack got everything ready, “What’s the plan?” she had asked The Wrecker, “Kid, if anything happens to me, press this. I've preset the autopilot to get you back to Prime's base.” he told her, not wanting to endanger the human, “What? No way! We had a deal. You said I could help!” she told him.
“And you did.” Wheeljack said, getting up to face him, “But it ends here.” he told Miko, but she wasn’t convinced, “This is my fight too.” She had stated, “Sorry, kid, but Bulkhead's gonna wake up. And he'll file off my rivets if you're not there when he does.” he said, leaving her there, “Wheeljack!” She shouted, heading to the window and seeing him transform to drive to the mine entrance.
Once there, he stopped, waiting, “You in there, Bug?!” he had demanded, hearing a whirring as Hardshell had stood on the top of the mine before leaping into the air, giving The Insecticon battle cry as he went to crash on Wheeljack, but the Wrecker went full reverse, barely avoiding the attack from The Insecticon before he had went full throttle, charging him.
That was when he transformed, leaping into the air and giving Hardshell a hard kick that had thrown him into the wall, Wheeljack, landing, took his grenade and was about to throw it when Hardshell had charged, throwing him into a boulder and making him drop the explosive, down, Hardshell had tackled him again, destroying the boulder in the process before giving the battle cry again.
Wheeljack was down, as he saw him, Hardshell was angered even more, “Thanks to your crippled friend, I am all too familiar with your Wrecker tricks.” he had stated, going to deliver a finishing blow when Wheeljack backflipped away, getting some distance as he unsheathed his blades and charged, doing and spin and leap before kicking him in the face plate.
Wheeljack charged again and sweeped his legs, knocking Hardshell backwards, as he was stumbling back and trying to gain his balance, Wheeljack came in and gave another slash, Hardshell blocked with his right servo as The Wrecker hit him with a flip before performing a spinning lunge, hurting him as Wheeljack landed, getting back on his pedes before charging The Insecticon again.
Blades ready, “What's the matter, Hardshell?” Wheeljack asked as he flung a rock with his blade right before going to slash him, “Not used to fighting a bot who hasn't been doused in Tox-En?” he had said, each syllable giving another slash, left right, downwards as they continued, Hardshell gave a roar when he made a mistake and The Insecticon grabbed his blade, “Talk during battle is a sign of weakness.” he snarled.
Going and punching Wheeljack and making The Wrecker stumble backwards, Hardshell had leaped for a smash but Wheeljack avoided it, using his second set of servos to attack the side but Wheeljack blocked it as Hardshell gave a slash and Wheeljack backed away which was when his second set did a downwards attack and Wheeljack had blocked both with his blades above his helm.
“Only when you're too primitive to do two things at once.” Wheeljack had bit back to Hardshell who used his main servos to give him a double fisted uppercut, knocking The Wrecker upwards and on his aft as he had skipped back like a stone on a lake, as he tried to get up, Hardshell threw Wheeljack’s blades away as he had went and transformed into his Beast–Mode and charged, hitting Wheeljack again.
He was thrown into the air again and landed hard, trying to get up as Miko watched, worried, “Got for the grenade!” She pleaded, and as if he could hear her, but as he crawled forth, Hardshell had blocked his path with a claw, transforming and giving their battle cry as he had jabbed at The Wrecker with his second who avoided three as he got up, but the fourth had knocked him onto his aft.
Seeing that, Hardshell had leapt towards him, knocking Wheeljack into the air before grabbing him mid air and smashing him onto the ground before he had picked him up and smashed him again in front of Miko who could only watch as it happened, “Wheeljack!!” She screamed as Hardshell had lifted The Wrecker up and gave a shockwave inducing punch to his chassis before switching servos.
He did it again, once, twice, before throwing him upwards, high above and as he had come crashing down, Hardshell had given him a hard blow to his face plate, causing another shockwave that had flung the The Wrecker all the way to his ship, THe Insecticon had approached, ashe did, Wheeljack tried to get up as he noticed Hardshell growling, slamming his fist into his servo.
“Go kid… get out of here.” Wheeljack said, looking to the human girl as Hardshell approached, Hardshell had reached the Autobot, all the while Miko went to the controls, “Your Spark will now belong to Soundwave.” Hardshell said, confusing Wheeljack, “Soundwave? I thought he worked for old bucket head?” The Wrecker thought as The Insecticon went to finish him which was when The Jackhammer had powered up.
Hardshell growled as he saw that the missiles of the vessel fired, seeing this, he gave a battlecry, he would not fall, he would finish the Wrecker for– but it was too late, the projectile had hit him and downed the warrior, blowing him to smithereens, as Wheeljack got up, he wondered what made him so lucky as he took the remains of Hardshell off his shoulder plate when he saw The Jackhammer land.
“Nice work, kid.” he said, glad that there was more than one human that knew how to Wreck and Rule when he heard a thumping, making him look up and see that there were more Insecticon warriors approaching, and they looked angry, seeing this too, Miko hit against the glass, “Wheeljack, run!!” She shouted, just as he hobbled and they charged them, luckily he got in time.
“I thought I told you to hit autopilot.” he said, taking the controls, “Bad things happen to bots when I leave their side.” she said as The Insecticons had fired they had taken off, flying as fast as they could as an armada of Insecticons pursued them, as they ran, the Insecticons fired, “Too many to pick off.” he said, watching the warriors pursue, “I’ll need something with a wider blast radius.” he said.
Which was when an idea came, putting on autopilot as he went to his grenade storage, “But I thought you–?” “I only carry one at a time.” he told Miko as he opened the above hatch, taking his storage locker with him, a few shots almost got him as Wheeljack climbed up, they looked rabid, Wheeljack took a grenade, about to lob it when he had another idea in mind.
They were still pursuing and so, Wheeljack threw the whole locker at them, the Insecticons avoiding it, but Wheeljack took his shot, hitting one and that had set them all off, creating an explosion larger than anything he had seen in a while as he went back to his seat to pilot, “Welcome to The Wreckers, kid.” Wheeljack had said to Miko, “You did Bulkhead proud.” he said, happy as Miko sat down.
“Then why don’t I feel any different?” she had asked of him and hearing that, Wheeljack didn’t have an answer for her, the two of them had flown back, they had killed Hardshell and blew a hole in the Hive, it should have been a great time, but as they had flown back, the two of them knew that they weren’t going to get a heroes welcome when they had returned to base.

Autobot Outpost Omega One, Nevada
Wheeljack and Miko had returned, The Wrecker limping in to the worried faceplates of The Autobots, Arcee leaned down to the depressed human, “Miko, you okay?” she asked her, “She’s fine! Kid’s a pro.” he told them, “I wasn’t talking to you.” Arcee had snapped towards The Wrecker, “How is he?” Miko asked, more worried for her friend than herself, Bumblebee buzzed sadly as Ratchet answered.
“Bulkhead will survive.” Ratchet told her, “He may never be fully functional again.” he told her, hearing that, the young human had started to tear up as she went and ran to her friend, “Miko, I don’t thinks it’s wise for you–!” he started before the Prime stopped him, letting the pair have their space, as Miko approached her friend, the group looking from a distance before seeing Wheeljack there too.
They gave him their own looks, some of anger, some of sympathy, but as he saw his friend, his brother in arms on spark support, something just gave out, “I’m… not sure I want to see Bulk right now.” he said, it reminding him of Starsreach and how he was useless to do anything to make it better, “Not like this.” he said, transforming and leaving to be along right about now.
As he had left, the Autobots had looked back to Miko was sitting by Bulkheads form, “I’m never leaving you again.” she said, crying before him in grief and sadness, not wanting to lose one of the best friends that she ever had as all they could do right now was watch and hope that he would pull through as Bulkhead dreamed of his youth and the good times they had

The Bridge, The Nemesis
Megatron was presented with the corpse of Hardshell, he was growing angrier at the sight before him, “The Autobot did this?!” he had demanded of the remaining Insecticons, “No, my lord.” The Insecticon beside him said, “It was a human girl.” he had told The Decepticon leader, surprising him and making him wonder if the Autobots were correct in utilizing the humans as assets.
“Dispose of this corpse.” he told the MTO’s there, but before they could, one of The Insecticons had started to eat said corpse, “My lord,” One of the Insecticons said, “Because of the value of Project Iacon, may we offer one of our Insecticons as a guard for said project director?” he had asked, that made Megatron curious on why they were so vocal now as the one had finished consuming the Hardshell Corpse.
“Granted,” Megatron told them, “Just make sure that they are more competent than Hardshell.” he had said and they had nodded at that, going to do as much as they had headed away, as they had done as much, The Insecticon had headed to a storage space, replicating and creating a new form with The New Insecticon rising up, “I have failed.” Hardshell had said, ashamed.
The Insecticons were of a Hive Mind, meaning that they were all connected and when one had fallen, they were uploaded into the Hive Mind, staying there until or if they had enough material to create a replacement body for them, giving them a pseudo immortality as long as there was one with enough resources available to them, “We have given you an opportunity.” Bombshock, his second said.

Project Iacon Lab, The Nemesis
Soundwave was at the controls when Knock Out had entered, “Well then, Soundwave,” The Velocitronian said, Smug. Nostalgic. “Or should I call you Screecher?” he had asked her, “Screecher is dead.” Laserbeak said, surprising Knock Out, “Primus Minor! I forgot he could talk!” The Medic said as Laserbeak had disengaged, “What do you want?” Laserbeak asked, speaking for them both.
“I wanted to talk to you.” Knock Out had said, “Talk? Or blackmail.” The Casseticon had bit back, making Knock Out vent, “At first, yes, I just wanted to do that, but then I found this.” he said, revealing an old photo that was taken of her, those three lug helms and Kup, “And… I just wanted to know that there was someone else that missed him.” Knock Out said, hearing that, Soundwave stopped.
She turned towards the CMO and nodded towards him, “Of course we miss him, even if he kidnapped Soundwave and gave her to The institute, he was still our friend.” Laserbeak had said, Gratitude. Came from Knock Out as he gave a smile, “Thank you, “I needed to hear that–” he started when Hardshell came in, “Soundwave, I have been assigned by Lord Megatron as your guard.” he said to her.
“You died?” Soundwave asked, “Yes, my queen, forgive me for my failure.” The Insecticon said, Knock Out glared, at the bug, “We should talk in private later.” Knock Out said before walking away, “Well then, My Queen, what would you have me do?” He asked of her, which was when she had gotten a message from Shadow Striker, “Now,” She said, angry, “It is time for us to hunt.”

The Jackhammer
Wheeljack was stewing in his vessel, when a familiar designation appeared on his comms, “You’re back, Trochia?” The Wrecker had asked, “You bet your aft.” She said, sounding angry, “I can’t believe Tyrest would do this.” She said, angry which surprised Wheeljack, “What’s going on?” he had asked of her, hearing that, she vented over the comms, “They’re sending an enforcer to Earth.” Trochia told him.
“Frag.” He thought, Enforcers were the NAIL’s that worked for Tyrest, There used to be just an Autobot one and some helpers he had, but recently the ‘Cons had one too, “They sending Mags or one of his fakes?” he asked her, “Don’t know, but it’s not going to be pretty.” She told him and Wheeljack could agree with her, no one was happy when a Enforcer of The Tyrest Accords came.
“By the way, who’s in charge of The Insecticons?” he asked her, “What?” She asked, “Megatron is.” She said, “Yeah, I thought so too until–” he started before there was an alarm on his system, making him cautious, “What is it?” Trochia had asked, “Looks like another Iacon Relic,” he said, “I’m going in to check it out.” he said, still curious and wondering on why Hardshell said what he did.
