	Inside Unicron's head, Kicker and Alpha Q came face-to-face (...to-face-to-face-to...), but Kicker immediately sensed something was wrong. His intuition told him that NONE of the faces Alpha Q showed him were real, but instead, they were all "masks." He attacked Alpha Q physically and pushed the creature into revealing his past to Kicker. Kicker saw how Unicron devoured Planet Q and felt Alpha Q's suffering at the loss of his world. Nevertheless, he pulled no punches with Alpha Q and demanded that he step up and join the Autobots in opposing Megatron. Otherwise, Unicron could be resurrected for evil purposes once more. As Kicker, Misha and Ironhide prepared to depart, Alpha Q gave his answer and began to move Unicron's head through space, joining the fight at Kicker's side. {{storylink\|Alpha Q: Identity}}		Inside Unicron's head, Kicker and Alpha Q came face-to-face (...to-face-to-face-to...), but Kicker immediately sensed something was wrong.

	As Unicron's head arrived in Cybertronian space, Kicker forced Optimus and Rodimus to put aside their differences and meet peacefully with Alpha Q to discuss an alliance. {{storylink\|Shockblast: Rampage}} During the negotiations, Unicron began to go wild, mindlessly reaching out for more energon to feed his hunger. Rodimus attempted to coordinate a squad to reach Unicron's core and provide energon directly into his systems, but the creature's unguided instincts kept making it block their way. Kicker reached out to Alpha Q, who was still able to exert a limited influence over Unicron's systems, to open up the passageways for them. [[Arcee (Energon)\|Arcee]], summoned by [[Primus]], joined the group, and together they reached Unicron's core and completed their mission. {{storylink\|Survival Instincts}} When Alpha Q shut down after the effort and refused to talk to Kicker, Misha decided to have a go at it. Kicker was too stubborn to let anyone else try to talk to Alpha Q, but Misha managed to slip past Scorponok while Kicker was kept outside Alpha Q's chamber by the guard. Miraculously, Misha's efforts to empathize with Alpha Q got him out of his shell faster than threatening to play "kick the can" with his head. {{storylink\|Each One Fights...}}		As Unicron's head arrived in Cybertronian space, Kicker forced Optimus and Rodimus to put aside their differences and meet peacefully with Alpha Q to discuss an alliance. {{storylink\|Shockblast: Rampage}} During the negotiations, Unicron began to go wild, mindlessly reaching out for more energon to feed his hunger.

	With the threat of Unicron heating up, Kicker continued to demand things of Alpha Q just as he lamented that his father always demanded things of him. Alpha Q pointed out this hypocrisy to Kicker, and it gave Kicker the "kick" in the pants he needed to ask his father for help, calling upon the energon of Earth for the fight against Unicron. {{storylink\|Unicron Unleashed}} Once the energon arrived from Earth, Kicker had it directed straight into Unicron's head, giving Alpha Q the jolt he needed to begin reviving his planets. {{storylink\|Open Fire!}} Megatron tried to stop them, however, by releasing energon from Unicron's body. The backlash of this energon crossing with Alpha Q's supply would have been catastrophic, so Kicker insisted that Alpha Q flee the area. Alpha Q could not bring himself to leave Scorponok behind, though, and the resulting energon conflagration tore a hole through space and time. Alpha Q, Unicron, and most of the Autobots and Decepticons fell through the rift into the unknown beyond. Kicker and Misha rallied the Omnicons and their other allies to prepare to pursue Optimus and the others through the rift and rescue their friends. {{Storylink\|Ripped Up Space}} They traveled through the rift in the ''Miranda II'', and eventually emerged from the other side. {{storylink\|Team Optimus Prime}}		With the threat of Unicron heating up, Kicker continued to demand things of Alpha Q just as he lamented that his father always demanded things of him.

	Kicker and the ''Miranda II'' located Prime inside the rift, where Alpha Q had recreated all the lost planets from Unicron as a new solar system filled with life. Kicker's unique abilities kept him in contact with Alpha Q, even though the creature was now stationary inside Unicron's head, effectively the new star for the solar system.

	Back on Earth, the energon towers' construction was nearly complete at the various cities. It was just in time, too, as Megatron launched a set of artificial comets from Unicron at the Earth, which could potentially wipe out human civilization. [[Desert City]]'s tower failed to power-up properly, so Kicker took Misha and Ironhide out to check on the problem. Inside the tower, Kicker and Ironhide found a pair of wounded Terrorcons causing the malfunction. Instead of attacking the Terrorcons, Kicker tried offering them an energon star. They accepted and then voluntarily left the tower, allowing it to come online in time to save the Earth. As the Terrorcons departed, Kicker first realized that Alpha Q and the Terrorcons might not be as big a threat as Megatron. {{storylink\|Energon Grid (episode)\|Energon Grid}}		Back on Earth, the energon towers' construction was nearly complete at the various cities.

	With the [[energon grid (technology)\|energon grid]] activated, Earth and its energon were effectively secured against any further attacks by Megatron or Alpha Q. The Autobots no longer needed to devote most of their efforts to defensive work. Optimus Prime began drafting a battle plan to return to space and seek Unicron to destroy him before someone resurrected him. Kicker was nonplussed about returning to the void of space, and Ironhide's bumbling attempts to take his mind off of it only helped a little. The duo followed Hot Shot to Mars when he left Ocean City without alerting anyone beforehand. They found him arguing with Rodimus, and when Rodimus shot Hot Shot point-blank, they tried to fend off the aggressor. But Rodimus and his highly trained allies easily beat them down and then took off. {{storylink\|Rodimus Friend or Foe?}} As the ''[[Miranda II]]'' prepped for launch, Kicker was surprised to learn that Optimus recruited Misha for the away mission as well. On their way out of the solar system, the Autobots deployed a mobile warp gate to continue their travels, but a Decepticon attack damaged it before they could pass through. The Autobots and Omnicons exited to repair the gate and confront the Decepticons, but several were injured during the melee. Eventually, Kicker was the only teammate still available to fix the gate, forcing him to overcome his fear of space. Stepping out into the vacuum alone, Kicker faltered at first and nearly went into a panic attack. With Ironhide and the rest of the team cheering him on over the commlink, though, Kicker marshaled his courage and reached the gate, repairing it in time for the team to press onwards. {{storylink\|Go for Unicron!}}		With the [[energon grid (technology)\|energon grid]] activated, Earth and its energon were effectively secured against any further attacks by Megatron or Alpha Q.

	Inside Unicron's head, Kicker and Alpha Q came face-to-face (...to-face-to-face-to...), but Kicker immediately sensed something was wrong. His intuition told him that NONE of the faces Alpha Q showed him were real, but instead, they were all "masks." He attacked Alpha Q physically and pushed the creature into revealing his past to Kicker. Kicker saw how Unicron devoured Planet Q and felt Alpha Q's suffering at the loss of his world. Nevertheless, he pulled no punches with Alpha Q and demanded that he step up and join the Autobots in opposing Megatron. Otherwise, Unicron could be resurrected for evil purposes once more.

	As Unicron's head arrived in Cybertronian space, Kicker forced Optimus and Rodimus to put aside their differences and meet peacefully with Alpha Q to discuss an alliance. {{storylink\|Shockblast: Rampage}} During the negotiations, Unicron began to go wild, mindlessly reaching out for more energon to feed his hunger. Rodimus attempted to coordinate a squad to reach Unicron's core and provide energon directly into his systems, but the creature's unguided instincts kept making it block their way. Kicker reached out to Alpha Q, who was still able to exert a limited influence over Unicron's systems, to open up the passageways for them. [[Arcee (Energon)\|Arcee]], summoned by [[Primus]], joined the group, and together they reached Unicron's core and completed their mission. {{storylink\|Survival Instincts}} When Alpha Q shut down after the effort and refused to talk to Kicker, Misha decided to have a go at it. Kicker was too stubborn to let anyone else try to talk to Alpha Q, but Misha managed to slip past Scorponok while Kicker was kept outside Alpha Q's chamber by the guard. Miraculously, Misha's efforts to empathize with Alpha Q got him out of his shell faster than threatening to play "kick the can" with his head. {{storylink\|Each One Fights...}}		As Unicron's head arrived in Cybertronian space, Kicker forced Optimus and Rodimus to put aside their differences and meet peacefully with Alpha Q to discuss an alliance. {{storylink\|Shockblast: Rampage}} During the negotiations, Unicron began to go wild, mindlessly reaching out for more energon to feed his hunger.

	With the threat of Unicron heating up, Kicker continued to demand things of Alpha Q just as he lamented that his father always demanded things of him. Alpha Q pointed out this hypocrisy to Kicker, and it gave Kicker the "kick" in the pants he needed to ask his father for help, calling upon the energon of Earth for the fight against Unicron. {{storylink\|Unicron Unleashed}} Once the energon arrived from Earth, Kicker had it directed straight into Unicron's head, giving Alpha Q the jolt he needed to begin reviving his planets. {{storylink\|Open Fire!}} Megatron tried to stop them, however, by releasing energon from Unicron's body. The backlash of this energon crossing with Alpha Q's supply would have been catastrophic, so Kicker insisted that Alpha Q flee the area. Alpha Q could not bring himself to leave Scorponok behind, though, and the resulting energon conflagration tore a hole through space and time. Alpha Q, Unicron, and most of the Autobots and Decepticons fell through the rift into the unknown beyond.

	Kicker and the ''Miranda II'' located Prime inside the rift, where Alpha Q had recreated all the lost planets from Unicron as a new solar system filled with life. Kicker's unique abilities kept him in contact with Alpha Q, even though the creature was now stationary inside Unicron's head, effectively the new star for the solar system. Kicker, Arcee, Ironhide, and the others joined Optimus Prime's team on [[Iron Planet]], where they captured the Decepticon, [[Shockblast]]. {{storylink\|Protection}} Kicker and Misha brought the ''Miranda II'' to [[Jungle Planet (Energon)\|Jungle Planet]] at Alpha Q's direction, as one of the many new worlds Alpha Q was vitalizing through the energon sun.
