6. Divide And Conquer
Optimus Prime is injured in a battle with Starscream, Skywarp, and
Thundercracker of the Decepticons. In order to repair his body, the
Autobots need a cosmotron. The only problem is that there isn't one
on Earth. Ironhide, Trailbreaker, Bluestreak, Bumblebee, and Chip
have to go to Wheeljack's old workshop on Cybertron via the space
bridge to get the cosmotron for Optimus. The Decepticons show up to
produce acid rain to short out the Autobot's circuitry. Trailbreaker
and Bluestreak get rid of the rain makers and make it back to Earth.
Back on Earth, Megatron and the Decepticons decide to attack the Autobots
while Optimus Prime is down. The Autobots fight back, but are easily
defeated until Optimus Prime returns to fight Megatron in a one on
one battle. Megatron used up too much power fighting the Autobots
and is beaten by Optimus and the Decepticons retreat.
7. Fire In The Sky
The Decepticons next plan is to drain the heat energy from the
Earth's core. The entire world is starting to freeze rapidly. While they are
working in the arctic, the Decepticons find a large robot stuck in the ice.
They thaw him out and it turns out to be a robot that Starscream knew a long
time ago back on Cybertron. His name is Skyfire (first appearance). Megatron
tells Skyfire that they are working to bring energy back to Cybertron. He tells
Skyfire that the Autobots are evil and that they must be destroyed. Skyfire
joins the Decepticons, but after he learns how the Decepticons treat humans, he
joins up with the Autobots. Skyfire and Starscream have a fight to the finish.
Skyfire wins, but he crashes and is trapped under an avalanche. The Autobots
stop the energy drain and the Autobots mourn the loss of Skyfire.
