'''Megatron somehow obtains massive power!'''

==Synopsis==
At [[Ark (G1)|Autobot Headquarters]], the [[Decepticon]]s are attacking. [[Brawn (G1)|Brawn]] successfully beats one to a pulp, not backing off until [[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]] encourages him to let up. [[Hound (G1)|Hound]] then asks where [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] is. Wheeljack informs him that he's battling [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]], but without any weaponry.

As Wheeljack provides play-by-play coverage, Optimus belts Megatron across the face and sends him hurtling through a wall in the Headquarters. Unfortunately, the blow damages Megatron's gyrocompass which acted as an internal stability regulator.  This suddenly allows his processors to access a cache of [[quantum surge]] energy that had been stored in him for some time. This power boost turns his body black, heals his wounds faster than they can be inflicted and sends his strength rocketing off the scale. Wheeljack laments that they're now dealing with [[transmetal|a whole new kind]] of Megatron.  

Megatron does not know where his newfound power has come from, but presuming it to be divine intervention, decides to use it to his advantage in an all-out assault to crush the Autobots.
