Jordan looked behind her.
"Are you sure we aren't being followed?" she asked.
Bumblebee nodded, telling her that they were positive.
"If someone were following us," Knockout said, "we would have taken care of it long ago."
Suddenly, something flew too close to their heads and landed a few yards in front of them. Jordan could hear it transforming through the dust. Once the dust cleared, the humans gasped.
"Is that so, Knockout?" Starscream asked. "Pity it took you too long to realize it."
"Starscream. Still working for that bucket of bolts?" Knockout shot.
"Do not speak against Lord Megatron! He will have you torn to scrap metal."
"Bee," Knockout said quietly, "take the humans. Find the Energon. I'll take care of Starscream."
"Will you now?"
Knockout's hand turned into a saw as he ran at Starscream. The group watched as the two battled. Bumblebee transformed into his car form and opened his doors. The humans climbed in and 'Bee drove past the two dueling Cybertronians.
"No!" Starscream said, watching them drive away.
He looked at Knockout and landed a punch to his side, then his jaw. He jumped into the air and flew after the Autobot and humans.
Knockout raised his head as Starscream flew away. He quickly contacted Bumblebee.
"Watch yourself, Bee," he said. "Starscream is on your tail and gaining."
