Together with [[Jon Schloder\|Schloder]], they resolve to do all they can to stop the maniac's plan and head off towards the tower.		[[Twitch]], [[Nightshade (ES)\|Nightshade]] and [[Bumblebee (ES)\|Bumblebee]] stare up at the huge structure topped with the [[space bridge]], which [[Mandroid]] intends to use to wipe out [[Autobot]], [[Decepticon]] and [[Terran]] alike. Together with [[Jon Schloder\|Schloder]], they resolve to do all they can to stop the maniac's plan and head off towards the tower.

	Mandroid notes that his weapon still needs to finish charging, as it draws power from [[Mo Malto\|Mo]] and [[Robby Malto\|Robby]]'s [[cyber-sleeve]]s. He orders [[Blitzwave]] and [[Razor-Fin]] to guard the spire, and begins to put his other defense plan into action, activating his badge controller. As Bumblebee drives along, he is suddenly rammed from the side by the mind-controlled [[Optimus Prime (ES)\|Optimus Prime]], sending him tumbling. Fortunately both he and Schloder survive the experience, but as Nightshade and Twitch help them up, [[Elita-1 (ES)\|Elita-1]] drives into view, her eyes similarly glowing white. The group flees to the railyard to hide, pursued by the two Mandroid-controlled Autobots. During the resulting fight, Mandroid's ~~spear~~ is knocked from Nightshade's hands and under a train, leading Bumblebee to attempt to take on Optimus while the others retrieve it. Schloder grabs the ~~spear~~, but the trio soon find themselves pursued by Elita-1. Schloder is knocked unconscious during the chase, and Twitch ends up pinned under fallen containers. With Elita-1 closing in, all seems lost, until Nightshade drops a crane on her and uses the ~~spear~~ to drain her energon. They're then able to help Bumblebee against Optimus, but the Autobot leader still proves more than a match. Before he can finish them, the tide turns as [[Thrash (ES)\|Thrash]], [[Jawbreaker (ES)\|Jawbreaker]] and [[Hashtag (ES)\|Hashtag]] return to join the fight. Together, they keep him busy long enough for Twitch to use the ~~spear~~ on him. After the newcomers are filled in on current events, the group once again heads for Mandroid's fortress.

Together, they keep him busy long enough for Twitch to use the Cyber Slayer on him. After the newcomers are filled in on current events, the group once again heads for Mandroid's fortress.

	At the end of a bridge, they're again abruptly stopped by [[Arcee (ES)\|Arcee]] and [[Wheeljack (ES)\|Wheeljack]], and their retreat is cut off by a wall of flame produced by [[Grimlock (ES)\|Grimlock]]. Bumblebee and Schloder stay to keep the Autobots busy, while the Terrans fly off to face Mandroid himself. As they near the spire, they again come under fire, this time from the Sharkticons. While Jawbreaker, Nightshade and Hashtag keep them busy, Twitch and Thrash fly up the tower. Twitch confronts Mandroid directly as a distraction while Thrash sneaks up to the space bridge, but he proves unfazed by the Terran. Instead, Mandroid holds up his badge controller and [[Megatron (ES)\|Megatron]] flies into view. Transforming, Megatron knocks Twitch down and aims his [[fusion cannon]] at her. Thrash frantically tells Twitch to fly, giving away his position but giving Twitch the opportunity she needs to escape. Locked in combat with Mandroid, Thrash tries to point out that the scientist has turned himself into exactly what he hates, but his arguments fall on deaf ears, as do Twitch's attempts to break Megatron free of his control. As a swarm of Megatron's missiles close in on Twitch, they're countered by a barrage from the other direction — [[Starscream (ES)\|Starscream]] has arrived with the rest of the Decepticons and some [[G.H.O.S.T.]] agents, having heard what they did for the other Decepticons and deciding to join the fight.
