	After the Wreckers re-entered Cybertron's atmosphere, an emergency evacuation forced the crew to pull Fractyl and Rotorbolt out of their stasis. Rotorbolt came out more or less recovered, but Fractyl was still unconscious and in critical condition. While Rotorbolt considered putting Fractyl out of his misery, Tigatron intervened by using the last of his [[Vok]]-derived abilities to heal him. Fractyl, a geologist, was ironically out-of-action for the duration of the Wreckers' pursuit of the [[Divine Light]]. Once he was again operable, he was able to use his talents to analyze the prism-like object and give information to allow the Wreckers a victory over [[Cryotek (~~Universe~~)\|Cryotek]]. However, this victory had a terrible cost.
