“I fear Grimlock was lost in the depths of Cybertron, my liege. He had gone rogue, if he had not been destroyed, Rodimus and I would have surely been killed…”

Prime’s hand lashed out and gripped Blurr by the throat. He lifted the smaller robot from the ground and glared at him.

“And yet, I would rather have one obedient killing machine than two bungling failures.” He pulled the struggling Blurr close to his face, his optics bright red. “Tell me why I shouldn’t rid myself of your incompetence, and let you join Chromedome on the shelf. You two will have a lot to talk about for a very long time.”

“Decepticons!” Blurr rasped. “Cliffjumper and Sideswipe! If we hadn’t hurled him into the chasm he would have fallen into the hands of the two traitors!”

Blurr saw indecision flash behind Prime’s optics just before the Autobot Commander’s grip tightened. Blurr’s optic dimmed, and he began to focus on what little momentum Prime had. Just as he reached out to steal Prime’s speed he felt his leader’s iron grip go slack. Blurr’s vision snapped back just as he hit the ground.

“What go on here?”

The voice belonged to Grimlock. The Dinobot stood at the entrance to the hall in his beast mode, his tail swaying menacingly as he walked proudly into the room.

“Well, well… Grimlock. I was told you were destroyed,” Prime rumbled, glaring at Blurr.

“That stupid. Me, Grimlock, no hurt by falling.”

“Excellent. Come forward.”

There was a pause. “Me, Grimlock, no want to.”

Blurr looked up at his leader, who was silent, but practically vibrating with rage.
