Some handy reinforcements arrive in time to help the Elite Guard.
Synopsis
Ironfist, Big Bang, Rumbler, and Sprocket stand atop a building overlooking the battle scene. Dion is overjoyed to see more of his comrades survived the massacre at the Elite Guard headquarters, while the Combaticons look to make another attempt at merging. Luckily Side Burn is on top of that by being literally on top of Blast Off. Starscream meanwhile rallies his men for a counterattack and they start laying into the Elite Guardsmen.
Magnum blasts Deathsaurus in the chest, only for Lyzack to come to the defense of her lord. Starscream and Side Burn can only stare open-mouthed as she starts cleaving Magnum's weapons off and prepares to finish him off. Luckily for Magnum, Thunderclash knocks her flying with a punch. Starscream and Side Burn both react in alarm, until Side Burn realizes where he is and blasts Starscream. While Thunder Clash is helping Magnum up, Deathsaurus has recovered and goes to kill both Autobots. He's interrupted by Sprocket, who jumps on Deathsaurus's back before blasting him in the chest in the craziest manner possible. Deathsaurus finally calls a retreat. The Combaticons hesitate, as Blast Off is still a captive of the Autobots, and as a result, Flak takes the opportunity to punch out Onslaught. With the Combaticons now all in Autobot custody, Magnum orders his team back to Iacon.
Meanwhile Deathsaurus returns to his throne room to find that his throne is already occupied... by Megatron!
