'''[[Generation 1 (television series)|Generation One]] > [[Generation 1 (television series)#Season 3|Season 3]]'''

On the run from the [[Decepticons]], [[Octane]] seeks asylum on [[Cybertron]]. While in a hidden tomb to fallen Decepticons, he encounters the ghost of [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]], who posesses [[Cyclonus]] and attempts to take over the Decepticons yet again.

==Detailed synopsis==

When delivering scrap metal from planet [[Junkion]], [[Octane]]'s cargo ship is sabotaged when an alien bounty hunter slips a bomb disguised as a piece of scrap into the cargo.

After he is rescued by a passing passenger ship, [[Octane]] seeks the advice of [[Sandstorm (Autobot)|Sandstorm]], who at first doesn't believe him. When they are ambushed and the Decepticons concentrate on Octane while leaving Sandstorm alone, however, the Autobot is convinced and helps Octane hide out.

When the two of them get together in a diner on a space station to discuss the situation, the bounty hunter returns and is foiled in several attempts to do away with the wanted ex-Decepticon - partly due to incompetence, partly due to interference. Finally, the bounty hunter caves in and attempts to attack Octane by tackling the back of the transformer's head. Octane grabs the alien and demands to know who hired him. When the bounty hunter says he was hired by [[Galvatron]], Octane decides to go deeper into hiding.

He is followed to [[Cybertron]] by [[Cyclonus]], [[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]], and the [[Sweeps]]. When the attacking Decepticons pin him down, he seeks shelter in what appears to be a large pipe, but turns out to be the secret entrance to a Decepticon crypt. While there, he encounters the ghost of [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]], who takes control of Cyclonus and "captures" the runaway Octane.

The two of them manage to convince Galvatron that "Cyclonus" has forced Octane to betray an [[Autobot]] secret, which lures him into an ambush led by [[Rodimus Prime]].

The ambush fails, however, and when Galvatron returns to see "Cyclonus" and Octane discussing his apparent demise, Starscream can't resist gloating, revealing his presence to the Decepticon leader, who proceeds to blast a hole into the posessed Cyclonus' torso.

As Galvatron orders Cyclonus repaired to top working order, the obedient Scourge is revealed to be Starscream's new host body.

:-- Alien Bounty Hunter

'''Galvatron:''' Ahhh, that's one thing I will say for Cyclonus. He administers a good interrogation.

'''Octane:''' "I'll never tell! (Hey, you got really close that time.)
