Crosshairs goes it alone against the Decepticons.

Thousand Island Fight

Following the Battle of Chicago, the Autobots are hunting Earth for the last of the Decepticon resistance. This mission takes Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and new teammateCrosshairs to Jakarta in Indonesia, where they encounter a trio of their foes. Just as the Autobots resolve to move the battle away from the city's slums, the Decepticons suddenly retreat. Crosshairs, however, has planted a tracker on their leader, and asks Optimus Prime's permission to go after them alone. Optimus agrees, but sends Bumblebee to secretly monitor the situation.

Crosshairs tracks the Decepticons to Pulua Bidadari in the Thousand Islands.
