	==Synopsis==		==Synopsis==
	In the halls of the Cybertronian [[Senate]], First Senator [[Sentinel Prime (G1)\|Sentinel Prime]] and [[Optimus Prime (G1)\|Orion Pax]] gravely listen to [[Chromia (G1)\|Chromia]]'s report on the current crisis unfolding at [[Decepticon Headquarters (G1 Cybertron)\|Ascenticon Headquarters]]: rogue [[Security Operations]] officer [[Barricade (IDW)\|Barricade]] has sought refuge with the Ascenticons... and [[Ascenticon Guard]] member [[Soundwave (G1)\|Soundwave]] has denied the 'bots of Security Operations access to the building. Straightforward as ever, Sentinel orders Chromia to break down the doors and bring in their target by force, but Orion advocates a more restrained approach. Perhaps, he suggests, he should speak to [[Megatron (G1)\|Megatron]] first... the recent destruction of the [[Memorial Crater]] has further divided [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]]'s already polarized society, and those who hold Ascenticon sympathies are already blaming the security operatives who carried out the raid. Sentinel grumbles that Orion has until sunset to get what he wants... and if he ''doesn't'', then he'll order Chromia to get proactive about the situation.

	Ignoring Head of Intelligence [[Starscream (G1)\|Starscream]]'s snide remarks, Chromia passes an object to Orion: the salvaged contents of the data-jack that she and her team uncovered at the Rise base in the crater. Forty names are on the list of every 'bot who used the facility's [[energon stations]]–including, she reasons, the Risers responsible for killing [[Brainstorm (G1)\|Brainstorm]] and [[Rubble]].

Forty names are on the list of every 'bot who used the facility's [[energon stations]]–including, she reasons, the Risers responsible for killing [[Brainstorm (G1)\|Brainstorm]] and [[Rubble]].

	Elsewhere, Megatron himself is furious with Soundwave's handling of the recent crisis–under Soundwave's authorization, Barricade passed information directly to [[Shockwave (G1)\|Shockwave]] regarding the location of the [[Voin]] witness... and Shockwave sought to tie up that loose end by sending the notoriously unstable [[Quake (G1)\|Quake]] to finish the job. With security cordons at their doorstep and a suspected Riser taking shelter in their headquarters, the political legitimacy of the Ascenticons is crumbling, and fast. As he vents his fury, the Ascenticon leader smashes one piece of furniture after the next, until an attendant timidly pokes her head around the door to inform Megatron that Orion wishes to speak to him. With his carefully-prepared plan collapsing around him, the Ascenticon leader sighs, and agrees that Security Operations ''cannot'' be allowed to speak to Barricade now. Instead, Megatron puts through a call to [[Shockwave (G1)\|Shockwave]] on one of Soundwave's secure drones, informing his co-conspirator that someone needs to come get Barricade... and that the extraction effort needs to look good.

	Unaware of Megatron's scheme, [[Bumblebee (G1)\|Bumblebee]] has just finished paying [[Windblade (G1)\|Windblade]]'s [[stasis lock]]ed body a visit–but that's not why he's at the medical center today, as he's arrived to have a tête-à-tête with Orion Pax. Orion is the one who put him up to joining the Ascenticon Guard, a way of keeping an eye on the organization after the suspiciously incompetent attack on Megatron's Ascenticon rally–but now, with Ascenticon headquarters in turmoil, Orion asks Bumblebee not to return. The yellow Ascenticon refuses: Rubble died because nobody was there to protect him. Bumblebee was in debt to Orion already, but now he's even ''deeper'' in debt to Rubble's memory... and he won't stop until that debt is paid, and Cybertron protected.

	In the halls of the Cybertronian [[Senate]], First Senator [[Sentinel Prime (G1)\|Sentinel Prime]] and [[Optimus Prime (G1)\|Orion Pax]] gravely listen to [[Chromia (G1)\|Chromia]]'s report on the current crisis unfolding at [[Ascenticon Headquarters]]: rogue [[Security Operations]] officer [[Barricade (IDW)\|Barricade]] has sought refuge with the Ascenticons... and [[Ascenticon Guard]] member [[Soundwave (G1)\|Soundwave]] has denied the 'bots of Security Operations access to the building. Straightforward as ever, Sentinel orders Chromia to break down the doors and bring in their target by force, but Orion advocates a more restrained approach. Perhaps, he suggests, he should speak to [[Megatron (G1)\|Megatron]] first... the recent destruction of the [[Memorial Crater]] has further divided [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]]'s already polarized society, and those who hold Ascenticon sympathies are already blaming the security operatives who carried out the raid. Sentinel grumbles that Orion has until sunset to get what he wants... and if he ''doesn't'', then he'll order Chromia to get proactive about the situation.

	Ignoring Head of Intelligence [[Starscream (G1)\|Starscream]]'s snide remarks, Chromia passes an object to Orion: the salvaged contents of the data-jack that she and her team uncovered at the Rise base in the crater. Forty names are on the list of every 'bot who used the facility's [[energon stations]]–including, she reasons, the Risers responsible for killing [[Brainstorm (G1)\|Brainstorm]] and [[Rubble]].
