[It's just a short video feed, from what was--briefly, one of the Perceptor's labs.  A half-built space bridge is in the background.]

Perceptor's gone.

And now Ratchet.

Either someone's kidnapping them, [Looking at you, First Forged. Or Prism.] or they're wandering someplace dangerous and getting killed. Because neither of them are good fighters.

Or....something else.

[He's not sure he's covered all the angles. He's a swordsmech, not Nightbeat or Prowl. But those are conclusions he can draw.]

I'm heading to the Badlands to at least settle that angle.  And I have...business out there, anyway. [And he's not quite dumb enough to go against Prism on his own. But the Badlands, he can handle.]

Anyone else missing? Anyone have another solution?

No, he didn't seem like the type.

[Drift gives a frustrated sound.] I don't know. It's the same when the sharkthings came--someone seemed to be controlling them too.

Do you know any 'Unicron'?

[Now there's a name Wreck-Gar recognizes. It was the threat of Unicron that had first united the Autobots and the Junkions. A threat which still loomed in orbit around his Cybertron, in the form of Unicron's mostly deactivated head.]

Unicron? Yes, I've been a contestant on his show. A wretched hive of scum and villainy all to himself. A monster planet with a mega-meaty case of the munchies.

A planet. [He frowns. That part didn't quite square with what Vector had said. But the rest did.] Any weaknesses?

Autobot Matrix of Leadership guaranteed to give Unicron an Excedrin headache number one or double your money back.
