Synopsis
In the former Soviet breakaway state of Brasnya, Megatron reveals his new (but familiar to fans) alt-mode of a human-sized handgun. He is able shrink into this form using the rare mass displacement, made possible by Ore-13. He assigns his facsimile, Georgi Koska to use him to blow up an oil pipeline and agitate their political enemies. When their opposition arrives, the Decepticons escalate tensions by covertly attacking both sides.
Optimus Prime refuses to allow a search for Sunstreaker until the Decepticons are under control, and orders an Autobot contingent to Brasnya. However, Ironhide and Ratchet plan to disobey Prime's orders and investigate Sunstreaker's disappearance based on a lead from Jimmy.
Three reinforcements arrive — Hot Rod, Hardhead and Nightbeat.
