Hearing Soundwave's report on the Autobot's situation, he nodded in understanding both at the information and the order mixed into it. "Acknowledged," he replied. "Thundercracker, Ramjet, with me. Skywarp, I don't need to tell you what to do, now do I?"<br/>"Nah, I know what to do," the purple seeker replied.<br/>"Then, Seekers, seek and destroy!" With that, the four seekers took off, transforming in mid-air to begin the attack.<br/><br/>As they flew, Starscream was turning over the situation in his head. Much like Soundwave, he recognized how foolhardy of a location the Autobots were in for a meeting. As the monotone Decepticon informed him, the area was poorly defended, not even from the air just in general. If they were going to be in such a bad position to defend themselves from, they should be in one that was significantly less open so they weren't so easily spotted and spied on. Noting that they could just barely see the enemy, he gave the order. "Ramjet, begin bombardment," the Sky Commander ordered. As the black and white seeker rolled in mid-air to widen the spread of his missiles, the red seeker noted that Skywarp had already slipped away for his part of the attack.<br/><br/>Really, the sloppiness of the Autobots' situation almost made the commander want to make things a little easier for them. Unfortunately for them, Starscream already has his orders, and he'll see them through. Which is why he gave the signal for Thundercracker to begin the barrage with his plasma gatling, the red seeker firing off a salvo of his own. The purpose of this initial attack was to disrupt the Autobots, keep Prime from getting his bearings. First Ramjet's missiles will break their formation, then his and Thundercracker's plasma rounds will interrupt any attempts to regain order. "Thundercracker, support. Ramjet, second salvo, join me when done. I'm moving in," he ordered.<br/><br/>"Yes sir!" Thundercracker replied, transforming back to robot mode while utilizing his thrusters to slow his descent while hanging in the air long enough to have a decent vantage point as he continued trying to gun down the Autobots with his gatling gun.<br/>"Copy that," Ramjet responded, firing off another swarm of missiles before boosting his speed to catch up with his commander. As he started to gain on Starscream, he noticed the red seeker had started transforming as he got closer to the Autobots. Watching his commander catch a plasma gun while attaching one of his blades to it, he watched as the seeker commander fired off five blasts, three at Prime and two at Prowl, before firing off his boosters to bleed off the rest of his speed and firing a sixth at the Autobot scientist; Wheeljack, the black and white Decepticon remembered.
