Back on the Terrorcons, the portal starts to form in the sky.

Scourge: This world is yours, master.

Nightbird turns around to see something in the distance.

Nightbird: Scourge? They're back.

The Terrorcons turn around to find Optimus Prime standing far from them.

Scourge: Prime. Protect the key. Don't let them get to the bridge!

Tons of Terrorcon drones appear to flank their master. The Autobots and Maximals all gear up for the ultimate battle as Charlie is given a Cybertronian Gauntlet.

Primal: Maximals!

Optimus: Autobots!

Optimus and Primal: Roll out!

The robots all charge into battle.

Primal: Rhinox! Cheetor! Maximize!

The Maximals turn into their humanoid forms and attack the enemy drones with the Autobots. Noah, Charlie, and Elena are with Mirage.

Noah: At least the foot soldiers took the bait.

Elena: Yeah, but Scourge didn't. He's guarding the key.

Mirage opens a vent.

Mirage: All right. This should lead to the bottom of the Transwarp control panel. Get the key, get the hell out of there.

Noah: What are you gonna do?

Mirage: I'm gonna go distract Scourge.

Noah: You can't take on Scourge alone.

Mirage: Relax. I'm Mirage, remember?

Noah: Hey.

They fist bump each other. The Autobots and Maximals continue to fight the drones as more and more come. Scourge looks and sees Mirage driving towards him. He tries to shoot at Mirage, but he duplicates.

Mirage: One, two, three!

The duplicates go at Scourge, and he hits a hologram as Mirage punches Scourge.

Mirage: WHOOMP! There it is!

Noah: We gotta hurry up.

On the battlefield, Battletrap fires his minigun while Optimus hides behind a rock.

Optimus: Take cover!

Wheeljack joins Optimus as he hides for cover.

Battletrap: Someone give me a real fight!

As Battletrap swings his mace, the ball gets caught by Primal.

Primal: It's a fight you want? You got one.

Optimus uses his blade to cut the chain while Primal pulls to rip Battletrap's arm off. Then, Optimus slices one of his legs, pinning Battletrap to the ground. As Optimus was about to deliver the last strike, Primal bashes Battletrap's head in repeatedly with the mace, killing him.

Prime: He was mine.

Primal chuckles. Scourge was fighting Mirage's clones.

Mirage: Nope. Missed me.

He then hits the real Mirage, and he falls to the ground.

Mirage: Noah, get to the key!

Noah: Mirage!

Scourge then hits the ground and grabs Noah and Charlie.

Scourge: What do we have here?

Noah: Elena, go!
