    Summary

    Prowl’s battle computer calculated every outcome—except this one.

    A mission gone violently off-script leaves him critically damaged under wreckage and stranded deep behind enemy lines. His systems are failing. His team is gone. And someone else is down there with him.

    Survival becomes a negotiation in the ruins of a shattered mission—where every move is calculated, and every silence is loaded.

     

     

    "Two kings. No pawns."

     

     

    In war, even enemies have their uses. And this time, he can't afford to miscalculate.

    Summary

    The Quintessons wage a brutal war across Cybertron, opposed by The Thirteen Primes and their triumvirate High Guard. Senator Shockwave advocates for culture and education amidst the violence; Soundwave seeks to protect the next generation; and Starscream takes to the skies with his trine on behalf of the beloved conjunx waiting for him to come home after every battle.

    But then the Primes are killed in a brutal ambush and their aide, Sentinel, is the only witness to their deaths. As Sentinel and Starscream vie for control of Cybertron, the three commanders seek the truth of their Primes’ deaths. And each one pays a terrible price when they learn it.

    Summary

    The people of Petrex were very set in their ways, and the ones who didn’t change their minds fast enough perished in the bombing. Prowl doesn’t miss it, or them. He doesn’t miss the stares, the rumors that came with being different, being defective. The whispers that that mech just wasn’t right, that the tacnet had been a bad idea, that there was no use for a mech like that and building him that way had been cruel, proof that the government couldn’t be trusted to do the work of Primus. Then came the war, and suddenly Prowl was the most useful mech in the province. Suddenly, his defect meant something.

     

    Prowl works himself to a breaking point.

    Summary

    “You,” Megatron pointed at his chest, fusion cannon incidentally following, and Starscream shut his intake with an audible clack. “Are the Decepticon scientist. I don’t care if Laserbeak has to drag you out there by your pedes, you are going to figure out what’s going on here.”

    “Oh, so now we’re respecting my title as a scientist?” Starscream hissed under his breath, remembering the many, many, many times his brilliant inventions have gotten shot down over the years. “If you would ever pay attention, you’d know that I’m an inventor. An engineer! I have no expertise in anything remotely related to alien or Cybertronian biology!”

    Starscream was lying.

    ---

    While his trine is on vacation, Starscream is forced to investigate a new Autobot bioweapon. It does not go as planned.

    The thing is, he's pretty sure Bluestreak didn't even mean to hit him.
