At the Devastator, Starscream was growing rather impatient as he still intends on finding and destroying Megatron for revenge. When his master, Doomsayer, noticed his behavior he checked on his Air Commander and he got the seeker's attention. "Starscream. I take it that you're growing rather impatient this evening?" He asked. "Yes, Lord Doomsayer. We've searched everywhere for Unicorn and his Anti-Spark, we've got Shockwave and Soundwave on our side, we're on our way to recruit more Decepticons as well as those Predacons, and even Airachnid and her Insecticon slave army, and yet, we still haven't found our former master, Megatron yet!" Starscream whined towards his master. Doomsayer glared at the seeker as he groveled before him.

"Be patient, Starscream. We will have our vengeance on that false prophet soon enough and if you really want to exact your revenge on Megatron, then allow me to meditate so that I can speak to our lord and master, Unicron so that he will give us the answers we seek if we must know where to find the target." Doomsayer told his Air-Commander Starscream, "Once the Chaos Bringer has revealed the location of Megatron since his spark is connected to his Anti-Spark after all, then perhaps I will have you lure him out of hiding and deal with him so that you can finally get your revenge on him. You will use the Dark Star Saber to destroy Megatron and once you have succeeded in killing Orion Eclipse's father." Doomsayer stopped himself before he had an idea, "Which reminds me, I want you to find Megatron's son and bring him to me so that we could interrogate him to reveal where the Autobots have kept Unicron for stellar cycles. If Orion doesn't tell us where our god is, then we will add his head to our trophy room as well along with his father and Megatron's Energon bloodline will be silenced forever."

Starscream clenched his fist and made a mischievous grin as he laughed evilly in agreement. "Yes, Lord Doomsayer. Heheheheh." the seeker said. "And when you destroy Megatron, we will have the other Decepticons accept me as their true leader and you, Starscream will be their commander once more. Until one day, you will be my successor." Doomsayer promised before he ordered the seeker, "Now, inform our troops that I will be communicating with Unicron to find out where Megatron has been hiding all these years until we can work on our scheme so you can finally kill our former master once and for all. After all, Megatron is not the strongest Cybertronian that he used to be, for he has become old, weak, foolish, and cowardly. Just like Optimus was in his "Prime" before he made his sacrifice to restore our homeworld." Doomsayer told Starscream.

"Indeed! Wait, did you just make a pun?" Starscream asked when he noticed the pun Doomsayer made to mock the late Optimus Prime. Doomsayer smiled wickedly as he nodded. "Of course, I did. I'll see you within a few cycles, Commander Starscream," he said before he left to meditate in his chambers. Starscream bowed to say goodbye to his master before he walked over to the bridge to let the New Decepticons know of their next scheme.

Meanwhile, back on Cybertron, Megatron was still feeling angry and sad with his fight with Orion Eclipse because he didn't want his son to be together with Altair Comet, not because she's the long-lost orphan daughter of Optimus Prime and Elita-One, not because she's apparently the adopted sister of Bumblebee—the same Autobot who had once killed Megatron with the Star Saber to save Optimus Prime and the Earth, and he is now friends with Orion Eclipse despite being his father's killer, and not because she's a young female Autobot related to a Prime who is one year younger than Orion, but because Megatron was afraid of letting go of his son.

He didn't want to lose Orion Eclipse again, not for another millennium, especially since after their family reunion at the World Sweeper where Megatron had slaughtered Sixshot and his crew. Yet, Megatron came to realize that his son was right; He was being a hypocrite for forbidding Orion to be in a happy, romantic relationship with Altair since he is, well was, a Decepticon before he became an Ex-Decepticon and an Autobot warrior and she is, of course, an Autobot, when the Autobots wouldn't allow Firestar to be married to Megatron who was a Decepticon and she was a Neutral who was about to become a femme Autobot along with Arcee, Chromia, Elita-One, Moonracer, and the other female Autobots before she chose to become a Decepticon mistress because of how much she loved Megatron long before she perished.
