Casting his glance towards Cybertron, he watches as the Cybertronian Knight try to keep the peace, unaware of the sleeping giant their "peace" stands upon. He casts his glance at his former Star Seeker comrades; their new captain, Flamewar, and her ally, the resurrected Starscream, have proven to be very valuable pawns. Shokaract declares that he has learned from the mistakes of the past, and that when he returns, Cybertron will not be prepared...
