	Smokescreen lays out a disruptor cloud to buy some time for everyone to head to Burthov. Optimus ambushes and threatens Starscream, to which he replies that Megatron is the chosen one. Optimus refutes this by saying that he, too, is chosen, and to tell Megatron that he will not control them before punching Starscream unconscious. Optimus lays out some explosive charges, and transforms, after which the explosives go off, bringing the city down on Starscream's group. While driving away, Optimus ponders about how Cybertron will be on the brink of something different, and questions if everything that has happened was either their own doing, or if it was just destiny...

	Later, in Trypticon, Megatron tells his fellow warriors that the long-reigning peace has been too long, what with attacks from beyond Cybertron and betrayals. Megatron requests that the brave Cybertronians forge a new path; one based on vengeance, redemption, and ''defiance''. The new faction will crush their enemies both on Cybertron and the stars. Megatron urges the group to join his group; for those that side with him will be known as... the [[Decepticon~~\|Decepticons~~]]!

	Meanwhile, the "artifact" tells Megatron about Optimus being in his quarters during his battle against the aliens. Megatron is furious, believing that Optimus and his group want the same power that the "artifact" promised him. The "artifact" tells Megatron that he'll still get the power, but he must deal with his new enemies, to which Megatron knows how... ''by death''! Megatron orders Prowl to look for Optimus, then gives another set of orders to Starscream.

Megatron orders Prowl to look for Optimus, then gives another set of orders to Starscream.

	At the excavation site, Optimus, Ratchet and Arcee are discussing their discoveries. Ratchet believes that "Optimus Prime" has a good ring to it, but Optimus isn't convinced yet, believing that it could mean "records clerk" or something. Arcee couldn't find the construction drones, and asks Optimus about the site. Optimus replies that if it's related to the Prime dynasty, then it could shed light into the history of the [[~~AllSpark (Movie)\|~~AllSpark]], but the biggest piece of the puzzle is with Megatron, who doesn't seem to be in a sharing mood. Optimus wonders why it was the only intact one found, and Ratchet expresses his theory that the others were deliberately destroyed. The discussion is halted when Prowl's security team arrives, with orders from Megatron to detain Optimus and the others for treason. Optimus angrily questions this to Prowl, but Bumblebee tells him that they're only following orders. Optimus thinks it's absurd, but comes along nevertheless. Frenzy spies on the group and Megatron gives Starscream his orders; terminate everyone except Optimus.		At the excavation site, Optimus, Ratchet and Arcee are discussing their discoveries.

	Optimus realizes that something isn't right; Wreckage told him that there was construction to the ''main'' road and that the route was cleared for them. Prowl agrees with Optimus' request to stop. Prowl orders Jazz and Camshaft to check the road, and he and Optimus talk about the sneak-in at Megatron's quarters. The group then gets attacked by Starscream's group. Optimus deduces that the area is unstable due to damaged energy lines, and that it would be a perfect ambush spot. Optimus orders everyone to stay sharp and for Ratchet to help out the injured.
