"Cybertron"

A pair of doors slide open as Barricade walks into the main area where Starscream and Soundwave were standing.

Barricade: I am at your service, commander Starscream!

Barricade salutes Starscream.

Starscream: At ease!

Barricade folds his arms.

Starscream: Our scanners have detected a Decepticon life signal heading for Earth!

Soundwave's face switches to the view of a map of the United States as a location in Nevada was pinpointed.

Starscream: I want you to travel this location's coordinates and greet our fellow comrade! Be sure to fill him in on our current situation as well!

Barricade: Of course!

Soundwave opens a groundbridge.

Starscream: Run along now!

Barricade walks through the groundbridge before it closes.

"Nevada, 2:00 P.M"

Barricade's groundbridge opens as he walks out with a handheld radar in hand.

Barricade: Let's see!

Barricade looks down at his radar as it detects an incoming signal.

Barricade: Right on time!

The groundbridge closes as an escape pod crashes into a nearby canyon. Barricade puts his handheld radar away and descends into the canyon where he finds the escape pod sitting at the bottom of a crater.

Barricade: "I wonder who it could be."

The escape pod cracks with a hiss of steam and opens, revealing a 26ft tall, tan colored Decepticon sitting inside.

Barricade: Bonecrusher!

Bonecrusher: Long time, no see, Barricade!

Bonecrusher climbs out of his escape pod and walks up to Barricade as the two Decepticons reunite with a firm handshake.

Bonecrusher: How's it been?

Barricade: Could be better!

Bonecrusher: Oh?

Barricade: Lord Megatron has fallen at the hands of the Autobots and the Decepticons have been fractured ever since!

Bonecrusher: Would you happen to know which Autobot pulled it off?

Barricade: I hear it was the scout, Bumblebee according to commander Starscream who was there on that very tragic day!

Bonecrusher growls in anger.

Bonecrusher: I swear! Next time I lay eyes on that bug, I'm gonna rip off his head and plant it on a pike!

Barricade: You will, my friend! Whenever the time is right, but now, we Decepticons are vastly outnumbered and lack the resources to launch an assault on our sworn enemies!

Bonecrusher: Well what would you suggest we do then?

Barricade: We lay low and wait until the time is right! For you, I suggest locating a Earth base vehicle and using as your disguise to move back and forth covertly!

Bonecrusher: Ha! And where do suggest I look on this dirt ball of a planet?

Barricade: One of the many military bases in this area! Your choices are far from limited!
