During the war for Cybertron, Airachnid managed to capture Arcee and Tailgate. Quickly realizing that Arcee would resist physical torture she used, Airachnid decided to make a simpler method: tell her the attack coordinates, or Tailgate dies. Arcee insisted she didn't know the coordinates, but Airachnid didn't believe her, and killed Tailgate. Moments later, Bumblebee and Cliffjumper burst into the holding room, killing the two Vehicons and rescuing Arcee. Airachind, however, fled.
Following the Great Exodus, Airachind concluded that war was over, meaning she needed a new way to spend her time. She decided to hunt sentient species, then wipe them out after getting a trophy. Eventually, Airachnid crash landed her ship on Earth. She initially laid her optics on a lone camper, but was ambushed by Arcee. While Arcee gained the upper hand, she was distracted by her human partner Jack Darby. Having learned of Cliffjumper's recent demise, Airachnid decided that making Jack her trophy would be a delicious way to hurt Arcee. Chasing Jack back to her ship, the human light a stick on fire and threw it at an energon leak. Airachnid barely managed to escape the explosion with her spark intact, but finally cornered Jack, and she was really pissed. Before Airachnid could deliver the killing blow, Arcee arrived and lay a few hits into the Decepticon. Deciding she had endured enough for one night, Airachnid drilled into the ground and fled.
