	In the [[Benzuli Expanse]], a group of aliens monitor an anomaly that threatens the nearby system. Suddenly, their sensors detect something emerging from the anomaly, despite the fact that nothing can possibly survive in it. The something is [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Galvatron]], who assaults their ship directly; they turn their comet-destroying weapons on him, shutting him down. They drag his body into their ship for study, but he suddenly comes back online and proceeds to slaughter the crew and destroy the ship. Galvatron speaks of being the harbinger of unlife, and doing the bidding of [[Nova Prime\|a dark master]]. Though Galvatron is his herald for the time being, he is not content to remain so. With his secondary objective—the destruction of the probe ship—complete, Galvatron continues to [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]] for his primary objective.

	At [[Thunderhead Pass]] on Cybertron, [[Sideswipe (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Sideswipe]] gripes to [[Leadfoot (G2)\|Leadfoot]] about how much he hates his posting, and marches off to make a transmission to [[Earth]] to see about getting reassigned. [[Ratchet (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Ratchet]] answers and tells Sideswipe that [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Optimus Prime]] is currently away on personal business. Sideswipe tells Ratchet to ask Prime if he's considered his relocation. Sideswipe feels that guarding Thunderhead Pass is a dead-end job and he should be on Earth helping to find [[Sunstreaker (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Sunstreaker]]. His transmission is cut short, however, when [[Hound (G1)~~/2005 IDW continuity~~\|Hound]] arrives and demands him to sign off. [[Verity Carlo]] and [[Jimmy Pink]] were listening over Ratchet's shoulder, and tell him that Sideswipe's right: They're not doing anything to find Sunstreaker or [[Hunter O'Nion]], and that it may already be too late. They walk away telling Ratchet that they've failed their friends through their inaction.

Sideswipe marches off to do it, but grumbles that he's still going to do everything he can to get reassigned.		On Cybertron, Hound reprimands Sideswipe for his transmission.

	At [[Thunderhead Pass]] on Cybertron, [[Sideswipe (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity\|Sideswipe]] gripes to [[Leadfoot (G2)\|Leadfoot]] about how much he hates his posting, and marches off to make a transmission to [[Earth]] to see about getting reassigned. [[Ratchet (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity\|Ratchet]] answers and tells Sideswipe that [[Optimus Prime (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity\|Optimus Prime]] is currently away on personal business. Sideswipe tells Ratchet to ask Prime if he's considered his relocation. Sideswipe feels that guarding Thunderhead Pass is a dead-end job and he should be on Earth helping to find [[Sunstreaker (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity\|Sunstreaker]]. His transmission is cut short, however, when [[Hound (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity\|Hound]] arrives and demands him to sign off. [[Verity Carlo]] and [[Jimmy Pink]] were listening over Ratchet's shoulder, and tell him that Sideswipe's right: They're not doing anything to find Sunstreaker or [[Hunter O'Nion]], and that it may already be too late. They walk away telling Ratchet that they've failed their friends through their inaction.

	On Cybertron, Hound reprimands Sideswipe for his transmission. He had ordered a total block on all unauthorized outgoing transmissions, and reminds Sideswipe that he's the one in charge. Sideswipe tells him that he's in charge of nothing: while the area might have been important a while ago when [[Thunderwing (G1)\|Thunderwing]] was active, with [[Jetfire (G1)\|Jetfire]] and his team having packed up and left, the area's essentially a dead zone. He tells Hound that he's in the mood to bust heads and can't think of a better place to do it than Earth. Hound gives him a formal warning and assigns him to sentry duty. Sideswipe marches off to do it, but grumbles that he's still going to do everything he can to get reassigned.		On Cybertron, Hound reprimands Sideswipe for his transmission.
