Megatron offers Rammatra advanced Cybertronian technology that will allow him to serve as Megatron's avatar in this new world. When asked what Megatron wants in return, however, the Decepticon leader simply tells him that he'll take whatever his new associate is willing to give. As Rammatra reaches into the dimensional rift and embraces his destiny, he tells his new benefactor that he'll gladly give everything in the name of victory...
