The Elite Guard searches for Deathsaurus and the Combaticons.
Synopsis
Optimus Prime's team wonders why they're being sent after Megatron and not the real threat of Deathsaurus and Bruticus, but as Prowl says, Magnum's Elite Guard team has that assignment. Optimus begins to give a speech about their duty before abruptly realizing that Side Burn is missing. Everyone immediately looks at Prowl, who has his suspicions.
Magnum's team arrives at the Elite Guard's Auxiliary Weapons Locker and are let in by Outback. Ricochet and Moonracer volunteer to join Magnum's strike on Deathsaurus, despite Magnum's cautions. Later, they finish their preparations, unaware that Side Burn has followed them to the weapons locker. Magnum announces that they might as well start off.
Meanwhile a number of Constructicons have almost finished repairs on the Combaticons while Deathsaurus observes. Onslaught is shocked when the Constructicons begin preparing to forcibly combine the Combaticons into Bruticus. As Onslaught protests, the merge happens. Bruticus's eyes have not yet been repaired, and the blind giant begins flailing wildly in panic, knocking one of the Constructicons into a wall, and forcing the others present to activate his override and shut him down. Starscream compliments Deathsaurus on his foresight in including an override, but admits he's come to deliver bad news — an Elite Guard team is on its way. Deathsaurus is disappointed with the failure of Starscream's earlier intelligence that the Elite Guard was finished, but orders him to assemble the troops to fight off the incoming threat.
