==Synopsis==
Wing saber is being interrogated by [[Steelgrave]], but escapes before the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] can torture her. Blasting her way through a room full of enemies, she flies back to her ship, the ''[[Chromia 10]]''.

On another planet, [[Crossblades (BW)|Crossblades]] and [[Stiletto (BW)|Stiletto]] battle and easily win against numerous Predacons. In the aftermath of the battle, the two are alerted by the communications officer of the [[Maximal]] starship ''[[Defiant]]'' that they are to report to Wing Saber and obey her orders. Shortly afterward, the ''Chromia 10'' sets down.

Elsewhere, the [[Tripredacus Council]] convenes to discuss the actions of renegade Predacons. The [[Decepticon|Decepticons]] have retreated into history, allowing the [[Autobot]]s and Maximals to achieve victory over the Predacons. The Tripredicus Council will soon be signing the [[Pax Cybertronia]] to mark the end of the [[Great War (G1)|Great War]], but outlaw Predacons, like Steelgrave's band on the planet [[Nibari]], threaten to bring the Maximals down on all Predacons, eliminating them forever. The Council leaks the details of these renegades to the Maximals, knowing that Maximal forces are spread too thin to properly deal with the situation. While both sides are distracted, the Council will send an agent to ensure that Nibari's resources ultimately end up in the their hands.

Maximal Command contacts Wing Saber, showing her pictures of enemy activity on Nibari. The Predacons have co-opted the native [[Nibarian]]s' technology to mass produce [[Transformer]] bodies without [[spark]]s. Command orders Wing Saber's team to gather information and report back. Wing Saber recognizes Steelgrave in the photos, and knows that he's not smart enough to run such an operation. More is happening on Nibari than Maximal Command suspects, and Wing Saber intends to find out what.

The Nibarian [[Ritash]] ponders his race's future amidst the Predacon occupation of his world. Upon hearing the news of the Predacons' conversion of the Nibarians' robotics and computer factories in the city of Ro'kar, Ritash begins to formulate a plan.

Disguising themselves as barmaids, the three Maximals incapacitate Steelgrave and his cronies before moving on to the Transformer manufacturing plant. There, the three run into a group of native Nibarians, lead by Ritash. While batling the Predascons, the Nibarians successfully shut down the factory, if only temporarily. Wing Saber gathers data by plugging into the plant's computers. Before long, however, the Predacons' mysterious "Leader" reveals himself to be none other than the dreaded [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]. The Maximals flee the factory, rescuing the injured Ritash.

Wing Saber lets Ritash in on her plans, and encourages him to continue to lead the resistance, in spite of his doubts.

Wing Saber and her team fly the ''Chromia-10'' to Megatron's headquarters to challenge him to a duel, which he accepts. Wing Saber hopes to take advantage of the Decepticon leader's legendary arrogance.

Arriving at the site of the challenge, the Maximals greet the enormous Megatron. With a crowd of onlooking Predacons, the four combatants engage. Via a series of strikes from Crossblades and Stiletto, Megatron's body is revealed to a disguise. When the false Megatron is facing defeat, over the horizon, an army of [[drone]]s arrives from the converted Nibarian factories. But the imposter's relief is short lived as he realizes that the drones are commanded by the Nimiarians. When the Maximals had infiltrated the factory earlier, Wing Saber had rigged the drones to obey the Nibartians. The Predacons are easily vanquished. A final strike reveals [[Flamewar]] inside the Megatron shell. Outraged, the Tripredacus agent loudly proclaims the superiority of the Decepticons, and shuns the Predacons. But Flamewar is defeated, and Wing Saber threatens to turn her over to the [[Predacon Alliance]]. 

Stiletto and Crossblades agree to become part of Wing Saber's team for the long-term, and Ritash says the Nibarians will turn the Predacon drones into construction machines.
