“Wha- get your hands off me!” Starscream spun around, smacking her arm away from him. Something flew from her servo at the impact and they both watched the Immobilizer clatter to the floor at the side of the room.
Starscream glanced at her before lunging for the item. Two mechanical spider legs struck his side, sending him careening to the floor. All six appendages hit the floor in succession and a shadow passed over him, traveling in the direction of the Immobilizer. Stretching out with both arms, he latched onto two of her legs and pulled her down to join him on the floor. She craned her neck back to look at him and jabbed a sharp appendage at his head. He rolled and felt it glance off his shoulder.
“What are you just standing there for?” Starscream shouted at the small group of flying Vehicons that stood pressed against the wall, watching from a distance. They glanced nervously at each other, but did not move from their spot.
“What, you need backup to bail you out?” Airachnid taunted. “Newsflash, no one wants you as leader. Megatron made me second in command after you decided you didn’t want to be a part of the group anymore. The only reason you wormed your way back into the top was because you let the Autobots onboard and they incapacitated half the crew. And what have you done since? Let Soundwave cripple the ship, leave for days at a time, make everyone else clean up your mess? For all we know, you’re still getting cozy with the Autobots. You probably tipped them off to leave their base before we arrived.”
“You dare accuse me of selling out-?” Starscream pushed himself to his feet, posture hunched and claws bared as he paced opposite to his opponent. His optics locked on the way she lifted herself and stepped lightly with her six spindly limbs. The Immobilizer lay off to one side, spaced evenly from both of them.
“I do,” she interrupted vehemently. “Megatron is gone, Soundwave has fled. What’s more, you have none other than Optimus Prime in lockup and you haven’t so much as unfrozen him. You think the universe is out to get poor Starscream , but it’s you that’s dragging everyone down while you flounder like a directionless sparkling. So I’m liberating you of your post. We’re ending this here and now.”
Starscream bared his teeth. “Fine. It will be my pleasure to finally be rid of you.”
