Transformers: War for Cybertron: Siege

Sorry, I...

You know how I survive out here?

I don't make noise, and I don't draw attention to myself.

Sorry about that.

It's called stealth --

try using it before I regret bringing you here.

The Autobots ain't paying you for attitude;

we're paying you to find energon.

I ain't a big fan of dead ends, kid.

Then you'll be really happy when I activate this hidden hatch, kid.

- -

Well... polish my tailpipe!

You weren't lying after all.

This will keep the Autobots in the fight

for a few cycles... at least.

Wait.

This was a Spacebridge?

Oh, yeah! I miss these beautiful beasts.

You ever go off-world through one?

Mm, yeah.

I used to go racing on Velocitron all the time,

before the Decepticons destroyed 'em all.

You wanted me to find energon, so I've led you to some energon.

-We should collect it and go. -

Are you crazy? Those Seekers will be all over us!

This could change everything.

I have to tell Prime.

I was hired to find energon, not be dragged into an Autobot crusade.

Is survival a stupid crusade?

I'm trying to survive.

Come on!

The Decepticons won't stop, kid.

At some point, you'll have to choose a side.

He's right.

Just be careful what side you choose.

You seem lost, Autobot.

The Surrender Stations are that way.

Unless you'd prefer we surrender you here.

I'm not an Autobot.

Thundercracker, scan them.

Target: unknown.

Target: Wheeljack.

Known collaborator: Optimus Prime, enemy of the state.

- Autobot.

Looters are to be executed on sight,

let alone Autobots.

- -

And as the Commander of the Seekers,

I decide how they are dealt with.

You fool! They are the enemy!

If the Seekers were under my command,

you would be dead by my hand.

You mean that hand?

- -

The Autobots laugh at us because of him,

and I say we eliminate all three of them.

Megatron will reward us for our loyalty.

So...

be it.

- -

- -Go! Now!

You fools! They're getting away!

Uh-oh.

Lord Megatron.

Hail Megatron!

Did two little Autobots do that to you, Starscream?

I'm not an Autobot.

Starscream was out of line,

so we had a little chat.

Hmm... I see.

We should execute every Autobot on sight!

This war has dragged on long enough!

This war was started as a revolution,

not a genocide.

For a better Cybertron, we must reach their sparks and minds.

Some of us don't want your vision of Cybertron.

You're running low on energon.

You're desperate, taking risks,

and over-extending yourselves.

I don't care what you want.

However...

I want to see an end to this war as much as you do.

Denounce the Autobot fanatics and join us.

Help me put a stop to all of this destruction.

Freedom is the right of all sentient beings.

Yes.

The words of your leader...

honorable, but senseless.

Yeah, well...

I'll stick with him.

Such disrespect!

He insults you with the words of Prime.

Starscream, back in line.

You are the great Megatron,

and yet they defy you.

Such trespass cannot be allowed.

And you...

I'm just trying to survive.

So, a coward then?

Afraid to choose a side.

At least this one wears his allegiance

and his fate with pride.

-Execute them. -Sir?

Starting with the proud Autobot.

With pleasure, Lord Megatron.

Seekers, at the ready.

- Aim... -

Let them go!

Ah... The noble leader has arrived.

You're in no position to demand anything.

Accept my treaty.

And condemn all of Cybertron to slavery.

I will not do that, Megatron.

What do you know of slavery,

of the energon mines, or gladiatorial pits?

My brothers and sisters were pre-determined to suffer

while you and your kind did nothing!

Everything that you and I have gone through,

we fought for the same things!

What you fight for now, Alpha Trion would be ashamed.

Of us both, I think.

I will not accept your treaty.

Then we end this war here. Now!

- -

I'm enjoying this, Prime.

- - Get to your feet.

Alpha Trion put us all on the path to freedom

and, for that, you betrayed him, Megatron.

You...

murdered him.

You weren't built for this.

You'll never be able to make the decisions Cybertron needs.

Cybertron needs freedom.

Cybertron needs strength...

my strength.

You were always the slower one,

the weaker one.

Seekers, to the air!

Kill her!

Autobots retreat!

-He's not an Autobot. -I'm not an Autobot.
