S Starscream
Lord Megatron, I was so relieved to hear of your resurrection.
You left me to die on that pathetic insect planet!
S Starscream
Only to help spawn our new army. The Fallen decries it. After all in your absence, someone had to take command.
[slams Starscream against the wall and strangles him]
So disappointing.
S Starscream
[choking]
Hatchlings, hatchlings! Careful, fragile.
Even in death there is no command but mine. [scene cuts to Megatron meeting the Fallen] My master, I failed you on Earth. The AllSpark is destroyed and without it, our race will perish.
F The Fallen
Oh, you have much to learn, my disciple. The Cube was merely a vessel. Its power, its knowledge can never be destroyed. It can only...transform.
F The Fallen
It has been absorbed by the human child. The key to saving our race now lies within his mind.
Well, then, let me strip the very flesh from his body.
F The Fallen
And you will, my apprentice, in time. For a millenia I have dreamt of my return to that wretched planet, where I too was once betrayed by the Primes I called my brothers. Only a Prime can defeat me and now only one remains.
Optimus, he protects the boy.
F The Fallen
Then the boy will lead us to him and revenge will be ours.
S Starscream
The boy will not escape us. We have him in our sights. But without more Energon the hatchlings will keep dying.
[After killing Optimus, Starscream and Megatron meet on top of a building; Starscream is holding his severed arm]
That went well.
S Starscream
We’ve...lost the boy, Master. The Autobots must be shielding their signals.
[Frustrated]
I can't even rely on you...
[Grabs and slams Starscream onto the building]
...to swat a simple insect! [Kicks Starscream and edges him over to the side of the building]
S Starscream
One insect among seven billion!
S Starscream
He could be anywhere.
Then we will force them to find them for us! It’s time for the world to know of our presence. No more disguises, NO MERCY! The time has come for my master’s arrival.
S Soundwave
[in space]
Decepticons, mobilize. It is time.
[Megaton fires some stray shots at Prime in his tank form, then switches to robot mode and lunges at Optimus, who is still in vehicle mode, to tear him apart. However, Optimus switches to robot mode at the last second before Megatron tackles him, sending both of them tumbling. Sam flees from the fight]
Hide, Sam!
[Optimus successfully halts his fall by landing on his feet and capitalizes on Megatron's instability, delivering a right hook to Megatron’s face. Optimus then backs up slightly, poised to deliver a knee strike to Megatron's face. However, Megatron counters by tackling Optimus, sending him crashing to the ground, while Sam observes the confrontation from behind a tree.] [Uproots a tree]
Weak! [hits Megatron with the tree and follows up by delivering a powerful strike to the center of Megatron's back.] Puny! [Megatron attempts to strike Optimus with a fierce slash, but Optimus evades the attack and counters with a formidable right hook, knocking Megatron to the ground.] Waste of metal. [Megatron manages regain his stance, only to be pierced in the left shoulder by Optimus' energon blade] Junkyard crap! [Elbow’s Megaton to the face and throws him]
[heard from off screen]
Decepticons! [Grindor and Starscream came crashing through the trees to Megatron's aid.]
S Starscream
[transforms into robot mode and uproots two trees before throwing them aside.]
Come here, boy.
[Starscream and Megatron initiate their pursuit of Sam, who is attempting to escape. Megatron, however, is tackled to the ground by Optimus, seizing his left leg Optimus then delivers a sharp elbow to Megatron's knee joint and knees him in the side of the face, causing him to fall. As Starscream charges at Optimus, the latter reacts with remarkable speed, landing two punches to Starscream's face before delivering a kick that sends Megatron backward. Optimus then lifts Starscream upside down, firing his machine gun, and follows up by kicking him in the jaw, resulting in Starscream tumbling away.]
There is another source of Energon hidden on this planet. The boy could lead us to it.
[The trio of Decepticons encircles Prime in a menacing manner. Grindor seizes Optimus Prime by the head, attacking his midsection with a wrist-mounted router blade. In response, Optimus retaliates by elbowing Grindor in the face, forcing him back. Starscream then strikes Optimus Prime twice with his blades and follows up with a blow from his mace. Subsequently, Megatron captures Optimus Prime and forcefully slams him to the ground, delivering a kick to his head.]
[Starscream fires his machine gun at Optimus, while Megatron strikes him down with a powerful blast from his cannon. The force of the attack propels Optimus through the air, causing him to roll on the ground towards Sam, where he ejects a fragment.]
Is the future of our race not worth a single human life?
[Optimus gets up kneeling on one knee]
You'll never stop at one... [Deploys his twin Energon blades] I'll take you all on!
[He engages all three Decepticons in combat; Optimus thrusts his blade into Starscream's right shoulder and flings him towards Megatron. Megatron evades the attack, resulting in Starscream tumbling to the ground. Subsequently, Optimus severs Grindor's arm, which flies harmlessly across the battlefield, striking Megatron's arm and disrupting his aim, causing a misfire into the forest before he can target Optimus. Optimus then slashes Grindor's left bicep and strikes Starscream, before leaping to seize Starscream's left arm, inadvertently prompting Starscream to shoot Grindor twice. Optimus performs a flip over Starscream, sending him reeling backward. Grindor attempts to shoot Optimus three times but fails to hit. Megatron charges at Optimus, who retaliates with a blow to Megatron, while Starscream also rushes at Optimus. In response, Optimus delivers a headbutt to Starscream, then stabs Megatron in the left knee, seemingly dislocating it, followed by a stab to Megatron's left shoulder, forcing him to the ground. He twists his energon blade, tearing a portion of Megatron's left shoulder away. As Megatron looks at Optimus, he is struck by a right hook, causing him to expel Energon, and then Optimus follows up with an uppercut that sends Megatron flying backward. Finally, Optimus tears off Starscream's arm and uses it to strike him. Following this, he leaps onto Grindor, violently dismembering Grindor's head with his Energon hooks.]
G Grindor
No, not me! [screaming] Noooooo!!!
[Finally, Optimus dismounts, pulling the lifeless body of Grindor to the ground.]
Piece of tin! Sam? Where are you?
[Runs Optimus Prime through with his blade]
You're so weak! [blasts him through the wound]
F The Fallen
[Scene cuts to the Nemesis] [As he rises from his throne]
The last Prime is dead!
[back on Earth, a shocked Sam watches Optimus collapse]
Sam… run. Run… [Optimus dies as the other Autobots arrive]
I Ironhide
Autobots, attack! [Sam runs over to Bumblebee who is in vehicle mode carrying Leo and Mikaela]
R Ratchet
Bumblebee, get them out of here!
