Meanwhile the others noticed Starscream was missing right before Prowl called and told them what happened after Siren had called and told him about Starscream's plan and the seeker suddenly going radio silent and disappearing.

And they all decided to spilt up to look for Starscream knowing Night Rain must have gotten him and that he could be in danger.

Windblade saw Megatron heading out to look for the seeker and decided to join him.

"I feel like this is my fault I know Starscream wasn't thinking straight after what happened to Ratchet, I thought he needed time alone to vent but didn't think to watch him to make sure he wouldn't try something stupid or get captured." Megatron told her feeling bad about not protecting Starscream.

"It's not your fault and don't worry we'll find him, you should no better than anyone that Starscream is a pretty tough bot, I mean he survived the war and all those beatings you gave him." Windblade said trying to reassure both him and herself as they went to look for Starscream hoping it wasn't to late.

Meanwhile Knock Out was looking for Starscream terrified of losing another friend when he saw Lockdown exit a ship, Fortunately the red medic was able to avoid being seen by hiding behind a rock formation.

As badly as Knock Out wanted to attack and kill Lockdown for what he did to his sire, He knew he wouldn't win a head on fight with the bounty hunter who was bigger and stronger then him.

"What if Starscream is in that ship?" Knock Out thought to himself. "The last thing I need to do is pick a fight and get myself captured, injured or killed and not be able to help him."

The red medic decided his best bet was to play it smart and call the others, but to his dismay when he tried to use his com-link he discovered he couldn't get a signal and with all the rocks and cliffs around.

But he was afraid by the he went and got the others that Lockdown and his ship would be gone because he could tell that the bounty hunter was packing up to leave Cybertron and had probably just left to get some last minute supplies.

So Knock Out took the opportunity to sneak onto the ship not wanting to let Lockdown escape, especially if he had Starscream on board.

Knock Out started looking around with his energon prob out in case Night Rain was on board but quickly realized she wasn't and unfortunately neither was Starscream, it appeared the femme and the bounty hunter had gone their separate ways.

"Of course if Night Rain has Starscream Lockdown's job is done." Thought Knock Out. "So now my objective is to make sure he doesn't escape and find out where Starscream is so we can save him from that psychopath."

"Assuming he's still alive." Knock Out stopped in his tracks hating the thought that had just crossed his mind for all he knew it could already be too late and he couldn't stand the thought of losing the seeker too.

"No I can't think like that." Knock Out shook his helm snapping himself out of it, then continued looking around until he found the ships control panel and used his prob on it to fry the ships controls before using his saw on it to be extra sure.

"I'd like to see you try to take off now." Knock Out quipped. "I can't believe I'm making wise cracks at a ship." He added.

Then he saw that frying the controls had made all the doors on the ship open and one room caught Knock Out's attention so the red medic went in to investigate and realized he had stumbled onto Lockdown's trophy room.

The room was full of parts the bounty hunter had taken from his victims.

"This is so sick and twisted Lockdown is just as messed up as Airachnid maybe they should meet." Thought Knock Out. "There's a scary thought."
