	Back and Forth were part of the group of Decepticons led by [[Scorponok (WFC)\|Scorponok]] and [[Glowstrike]]. Teamed with [[Quillfire (RID)\|Quillfire]], the pair accompanied their new boss into [[Crown City]] to scavenge auto supplies, and were in the process of doing so when [[Bumblebee (WFC)\|Bumblebee]] and [[Strongarm (RID)\|Strongarm]] found them in an alley. Back used his powers to pull several trash dumpsters and create a wall between them and Strongarm, and setting up Forth to use them to knock her out. The two jumped onto a trailer full of stolen goods pulled by Quillfire, making their escape. Back used his powers to yank highway signs off their supports and hurl them at the pursuing Autobots, but the two Mini-Cons were dumped from the trailer when Quillfire spilled the contents in the hopes of evading them. They were able to catch back up to their boss after Quillfire knocked out the Autobots with a volley of stunning quill-missiles (having lost all the stuff he was trying to steal in the first place), and the trio made a break for it to try and salvage the mission.
