Even if They didn't manage to download entire Iacon file, Autobots did manage to get four locations. And since the enemy had the same info, they needed to be quick to get them. It turns out they had to split into four. Arcee and Bumblebee went for the first one in New York with Jack and Miko, Bulkhead went to another one near the volcano in The Equator with Silver, Ratchet went to the third one with WheelJack and Optimus went to Arctic with Elena. Raf and agent Fowler stayed in the base for back up.

When Optimus and Elena came to Arctic, Elena started to have a weird feeling. It wasn't because of the weather since she did prepare for that. The feeling was more like...sad feeling. Like something will happen, Something way sad...

"Are you alright?" asked Optimus by noticing her behavior.

"Nothing, it's nothing. Just weird feeling..." she said.

"Last time you said so, Megatron was in Bumblebee's mind and Unicron woke up."

"And Decepticon warship came to alive and FallStar left call open, I get it," she said.

"So...?"

"I'm not sure. All I feel it's something sad...Just like when...PeaceStar died or Cliff..."

Optimus remained quiet. He didn't want to think someone would actually go offline during these missions. They all were like family to him. They all were...



Soon they arrived at the location, but Decepticons were there already. And how it looked like the relic was taken as well.

"You think...?" asked Elena.

"One way to find out. You stay behind."

"Yes, sir."

Optimus got closer to Decepticon group, which was lead by Dreadwing. Dreadwing demanded that Optimus give ups the relic, but he didn't have it. That means someone else took it. But by how it looked Dreadwing won't let Prime get it. Not to mention he still against him to loss of his twin. There was a lot of firing, in which end by defeating all minions and Dreadwing stayed under the snow. When Optimus came back for Elena, he came with Starscream which was tied up.

"Do I even want to know, what he is doing here?" asked Elena.

"He will lead us to the relic," said Optimus.

"Like he knows?"

"Well, why else I'm hold up and still alive?" asked Starscream.

"We can put you into stasis pot," said Elena smirking.

"Ah. You're such cruel like FallStar."

"I doubt it. I get to meet her. But I can guess she doesn't like you."

"You think?"

Elena showed her tongue, as to mock him before she got up to Optimus' shoulder.



They keep walking through the snow. Starscream started to complain about the weather, but Optimus told that local temperature isn't affecting them. Then Starscream start of all what he had done to them, How he told about space bridge to get Cybertron and to restore Optimus' memories, How he left Arcee alive. In that, it was hard to say which one was going to smack him first. Optimus or Elena. But Optimus knew that all those things happened because Starscream wanted something in return.

Soon they arrived what they were looking for. There was one headquarters of humans. and by the flags around the relic's location, they probably took it and have it now in there. But for not risking any humans, Optimus made a call to agent Fowler to evacuate humans.

It took a bit of time, but soon the base was evacuated, which allowed them to go there. The relic was in one storage still sealed by ice. But before they could get it Dreadwing showed up. He managed to survive the avalanche. Optimus wouldn't allow Dreadwing to take the relic to Megatron, so he started to fight with him. Elena went look if there anything to help him. But soon Optimus was down and Dreadwing was ready to finish him with his sword.

"No!" yelled Elena and tried to go between, but right then something came out from the storage. It Starscream with the relic. The relic turns out to be armor made by Decepticons. "Dad, what is that?"

"The Apex armor," said Optimus. "Elena, you must get to safety, Now."

"But..."

"Go!"

Elena didn't like to leave her father alone with that against him. Not to mention Dreadwing. But what another choice there was. So she went a bit far from the battle. No matter how they tried, it looked like the best way to get rid of Starscream was if Optimus and Dreadwing worked together. And they did. They tried to put a bomb behind him, but it didn't affect much. Then Elena notices something the ground under Starscream was breaking. If he invincible, then let see how invincible he is under the ground. But how to make it weaker. Then Elena started felt something around her. Like wind whispering her to touch the ground. She tried a bit with one finger and one canister froze a bit. Can she control the ice? But isn't the SweetStar's element? But it has wait now. Starscream has to defeat first.

Elena run a bit forward next to Dreadwing.

"Dreadwing, how many bombs you still have?" she asked.

"What you have in mind, Star?" he asked.

"Just act quickly. Around Starscream," she said. "I make sure it works."

Dreadwing did like was told and put bombs around in a circle, while Optimus kept fighting with Starscream.

"He is far too powerful, Prime. Fall back!" yelled Dreadwing after he was done. Optimus notice the bombs and drove back them.

"Cowards," said Starscream. "You cannot escape my might...Wait, you two are up to something."

"funny, that you asked..." said Elena while, took one of her gloves off. Dreadwing activated all the bombs. "Because you're right!" she said while punching her fist into ground turning it into ice. When all the bombs exploded icy ground break under Starscream making him fall.

Optimus and Elena went check that it was done before Dreadwing took his sword.

"Now that our alliance has served its purpose..." said Dreadwing while was ready for a fight.

"Starscream is gone and the Apex armor with him," said Optimus while took his blade. Elena took hold on him. "Is there really need to renew the battle, when the goal has been lost?"

"We have other unfinished matters," said Dreadwing. Optimus knew what he was referring to.

"I force Skyquake no malice and I regret the role I play in his demise," he said and took blade away. "So I'll appeal to what I once did to your twin. Turn your back to the Decepticon cause and help me end this war. For his sake and to all who have fallen."

"Dreadwing, please," said Elena.

Dreadwing looked while both of them before he put his sword back.

"You saved my life today," he said. "I will determinate you, the next time we meet," he said before he took flight and left.

"So be it, Dreadwing," said Optimus.

"I want to go home," said Elena and hug Optimus by his neck.

"We will," said Optimus. Even if they didn't get relics the great pain was coming.
