User blog:Bzero/Starscream Leads the Decepticons

The golden form of Space Commander Metalhawk appears on screen, a frown crossing his pale silver face. From Autobot City’s command center he records the following:

“I encountered Starscream last night over the Arctic Circle. He informed me that currently Megatron is ‘gone’ and that Starscream is now in charge of the Decepticons. He claims he wants to end the war, and that only Megatron has been standing in the way of that goal. In fact, Starscream sends an olive branch in the interests of peace, intending to work out some sort to ceasefire and talks prior to Megatron’s return.

“Of course, I trust Starscream as far as I can throw Metroplex, and I urge others to regard this with the same level of cynicism. Nonetheless, with the current situation on Cybertron, this might be a good time to try to at least work together to save the planet, and just prepare for the eventual backstabbing later. If things are as dire as they sound, it might be worth the risk to be able to combine resources towards a common goal. It looks like you’ve done this sort of thing before – it might be time to do it again.

“Metalhawk, out.”

The transmission ends.
