	The Decepticons lie in wait for the Autobots, having attacked Jakarta and then withdrawn so as to draw the heroes in an ambush. That strategy goes out the window when Crosshairs makes a surprise ~~attacked~~! Darting around the battlefield, he tricks the Decepticons into firing on one of their own, before shooting down another himself. Crosshairs is confronted by the Decepticon leader, who gloats that they knew about the tracker and were ordered to lure the Autobots to the island. The Autobot ranger is unfazed, however, and reveals the device to also be a bomb, which he promptly detonates, destroying the final Decepticon.

This mission takes [[Optimus Prime (Movie)\|Optimus Prime]], [[Bumblebee (Movie)\|Bumblebee]], and new teammate [[Crosshairs (AOE)\|Crosshairs]] to the slums of [[Jakarta]], [[Indonesia]], where a trio of Decepticons have been killing the locals. Just as the battered Autobots resolve to move the battle away from the city's slums, the Decepticons suddenly retreat. Crosshairs, however, has planted a tracker on their leader, and sees them heading for [[Pulua Bidadari]]: the site of an old [[Netherlands\|Dutch]] colonial fort that would provide a strong defensive position. Rather than be cautious about this, Crosshairs asks Optimus Prime's permission to go after them alone. Optimus agrees, but sends Bumblebee to secretly monitor the situation.

	The Decepticons lie in wait for the Autobots, having attacked Jakarta and then withdrawn so as to draw the heroes in an ambush. That strategy goes out the window when Crosshairs makes a surprise attacked! Darting around the battlefield, he tricks the Decepticons into firing on one of their own, before shooting down another himself. Crosshairs is confronted by the Decepticon leader, who gloats that they knew about the tracker and were ordered to lure the Autobots to the island. The Autobot ranger is unfazed, however, and reveals the device to also be a bomb, which he promptly detonates, destroying the final Decepticon.
