	[[Metalhawk (G1)\|Metalhawk]] and [[Onslaught (G1)\|Onslaught]]'s squads are out on patrol, looking for Decepticon activity. The two commanders trade stories, but Onslaught has everyone hush when he ~~here~~ something. Spotting a [[Dropkick (G1)\|Decepticon truck]] carrying cubes, the Autobots watch as it swerves around the corner, dropping one of cubes. The cube transformers into a Decepticon [[warrior]], and the [[Combaticon (G1)\|Combaticons]] take him to an abandoned structure to interrogate him. [[Vortex (G1)\|Vortex]] assures Metalhawk that they won't need any help, as [[Brawl (G1)\|Brawl]] threatens the Decepticon with a sword. Moments later, a shot rings out, concerning Metalhawk, but Onslaught tells him it was the result of a self-destruct mechanism. As Brawl exits the structure with his smoking gun, Onslaught tells Metalhawk they've obtained coordinates for their target, a supposed Decepticon leader named [[Shadowcaster]]. Although Metalhawk is disquieted, he follows the others to the coordinates, ignoring Onslaught's obvious lies.

	At Checkpoint Alpha, near an abandoned bar, Onslaught is greeted by Metalhawk and the others. The Autobots commend each other, with even the braggart Over-Run complimenting Onslaught's aim. Onslaught notice that Swindle and Vortex aren't at the checkpoint yet, and sure enough, the two are carrying a large piece of equipment. While the mission was successful, Onslaught can't help but feel that something is off. Taking Metalhawk to the side, Onslaught tells him to head back to base with his squad, as he plans to look around for a few more cycles. Although reluctant, Metalhawk agrees, and his squad rolls out back to base. Later, Metalhawk tells [[Magnum]] about their victory, and that they suffered no casualties...while back in Decepticon territory, the battered Combaticons are captured by a [[Deathsaurus (~~Victory~~)\|shadowy figure]]...

	==Synopsis==		==Synopsis==
	~~Weeks after their debriefing back at the [[Cybertron Elite Guard\|Elite Guard]] Headquarters,~~ [[Metalhawk (Masterforce)\|Metalhawk]], [[Onslaught (G1)\|Onslaught]], ~~and their teams go about their missions~~. Onslaught ~~is reminiscing about one of his more humorous missions~~ when he ~~is interrupted by~~ a ~~suspicious vehicle hauling cube-shaped objects. As~~ the ~~truck speeds off~~, one of ~~the~~ cubes ~~falls off and turns out to be~~ a [[Decepticon]~~]. Metalhawk leaves it to~~ the [[Combaticon (G1)\|Combaticons]] to ~~interrogate their prisoner in~~ an abandoned structure. ~~A loud scream is heard, and~~ Metalhawk'~~s concern is answered when Onslaught walks out and informs him that their prisoner initiated a self-destruct sequence (in reality~~, [[Brawl (G1)\|Brawl]] ~~executed~~ him). ~~The Combaticon commander also informs Hawk that~~ he ~~was able~~ to ~~get information on where their target was located~~.		[[Metalhawk (Masterforce)\|Metalhawk]] and [[Onslaught (G1)\|Onslaught]]'s squads are out on patrol, looking for Decepticon activity. The two commanders trade stories, but Onslaught has everyone hush when he here something. Spotting a Decepticon warrior carrying cubes, the Autobots watch as he swerves around the corner, dropping one of cubes. The cube transformers into a [[Dropkick (G1)#Warriors\|Decepticon], and the [[Combaticon (G1)\|Combaticons]] take him to an abandoned structure to interrogate him. [[Vortex (G1)\|Vortex]] assures Metalhawk that they won't need any help, as [[Brawl (G1)\|Brawl]] threatens the Decepticon with a sword. Moments later, a shot rings out, concerning Metalhawk, but Onslaught tells him it was the result of a self-destruct mechanism. As Brawl exits the structure with his smoking gun, Onslaught tells Metalhawk they've obtained coordinates for their target, a supposed Decepticon leader named [[Shadowcaster]]. Although Metalhawk is disquieted, he follows the others to the coordinates, ignoring Onslaught's obvious lies.

	~~Both teams finally reach~~ their ~~destination at a well protected fortress~~, and Onslaught ~~issues his~~ plan: Metalhawk ~~drops explosive~~ charges from ~~overhead~~, [[Vortex ~~(G1)\|Vortex]] looks out for~~ where ~~the enemies will scatter,~~ [[Swindle (G1)\|Swindle]] ~~sneaks inside the officers' hideout~~ to drop a fog grenade ~~to flush~~ out the ~~rest,~~ [[Over-Run (G1)\|Over-Run]], ~~[[Dion (G1)\|~~Dion~~]], [[Ironfist (G1)\|Ironfist]]~~, Brawl, and [[Blast Off (G1)\|Blast Off]] distract the ~~gunners~~, while Onslaught ~~snipes the Decepticon~~ leader~~. It all goes accordingly, and Onslaught has everybody covertly regroup~~. The bots ~~congratulate each other~~, ~~but on~~ the ~~contrary~~, ~~Onslaught soon grows weary of~~ the ~~rather low difficulty of their mission~~, ~~and decides that he and~~ the ~~rest~~ of the ~~Combaticons will investigate further~~. ~~Metalhawk wishes them the best of luck and heads~~ back to ~~[[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]] to inform [[Magnum]] of their victory~~.		Later, the Autobots find a heavily fortified base. [[Ironfist (G1)\|Ironfist]] grabs his explosives, having upgraded them since their last mission together, and Onslaught comes up with a plan. Metalhawk is to drop the charges from above, while Vortex keeps watch on the leaders and where they flee. [[Swindle (G1)\|Swindle]] is to drop a fog grenade into their hideout, flushing them back out into the open. [[Over-Run (G1)\|Over-Run]], Ironfist, Dion, Brawl, and [[Blast Off (G1)\|Blast Off]] will distract the guards, while Onslaught will take out their leader. The bots put the plan in action; Brawl is somewhat annoyed he doesn't get to lead the charge, to which Over-Run responds with a crack about the Autobot tank's speed. Vortex spots the officers heading into a large purple building, and Swindle goes to drop the fog grenades, although not without complaining about the lack of loot, earning a reprimand about his thieving habit. Spotting his target, Onslaught snipes Shadowcaster, offlining the Decepticon. The Autobots disengage, heading back to Checkpoint Alpha.

	~~Later~~, the ~~Combaticons appear bound~~, ~~beat~~, and ~~seemingly defeated~~...		At Checkpoint Alpha, near an abandoned bar, Onslaught is greeted by Metalhawk and the others. The Autobots commend each other, with even the braggart Over-Run complimenting Onslaught's aim. Onslaught notice that Swindle and Vortex aren't at the checkpoint yet, and sure enough, the two are carrying a large piece of equipment. While the mission was successful, Onslaught can't help but feel that something is off. Taking Metalhawk to the side, Onslaught tells him to head back to base with his squad, as he plans to look around for a few more cycles. Although reluctant, Metalhawk agrees, and his squad rolls out back to base. Later, Metalhawk tells [[Magnum]] about their victory, and that they suffered no casualties...while back in Decepticon territory, the battered Combaticons are captured by a [[Deathsaurus (Victory)\|shadowy figure]]...
