	==Synopsis==		==Synopsis==
	Four million years ago, [[Perceptor (G1)\|Perceptor]] notes, the ''[[Ark (G1)\|Ark]]'' and the ''[[Nemesis (G1)\|Nemesis]]'' plummeted into prehistoric Earth. Three of the Decepticons, however, did not go down with the ship. Boarding an escape pod, the three fell into the southern hemisphere, where they ~~laid~~ dormant for some 2.5 million years. Eventually, their [[idento-computer]]s interfaced with the escape pod's computer in an attempt to find suitable alt-modes. When no mechanical items were found, the computer's range began to broaden, and scanned the local insect life, which Perceptor muses are the closest nature has to offer to mechanical items. Thus the [[Insecticon (G1)\|Insecticon]]s were brought online. Their unique physiology allowed them several abilities, including the ability to convert organic matter into a low-yield form of [[energon]], and the ability to produce semi-autonomous clones of themselves, an ability that has evolved over time. Eventually, the Insecticons were apparently offlined in the [[Battle of Autobot City]], although reports have surfaced of their continued existence. Whatever the case, their legacy lives on in the [[Sweep (G1)\|Sweeps]], who were reformatted from some of the Insecticons, and possess a similar cloning ability. Perceptor believes that the Insecticon's abilities point to the value of organic/Cybertronian hybrids, and wonders if they can reverse-engineer a similar way to scan organic alt-modes as their escape pod did...
