Fiction

Prime cartoon

A meteorite of Red Energon was uncovered by a human construction team and pictures of it found their way onto the Internet where they were found by both Raf and Starscream. By that time it had been removed from the construction site and was being moved by crane at a dock, and Optimus Prime had Agent Fowler get the area cleared. When the Autobots arrived at the dock, they were intercepted by Starscream in his Apex Armor. Starscream managed to break a chunk of Red Energon off, and after the quick-thinking Smokescreen separated him from his armor with the phase shifter, he blew up the rest of the Red Energon and made off with his piece.

Starscream worked to refine the energon, but the process was slow and only yielded enough for one or two doses. He used it to get the drop on Smokescreen, knocking the Autobot out so Starscream could obtain an Omega Key. Hard Knocks
