It was so damn annoying when everyone ignored him and only listened to Soundwave or Shockwave. He was there before any one of them — at least he believed so. He was better than everyone at everything. He was faster, stronger, smarter, more important, so why the hell did no one take him seriously!?

By now, he about had enough, storming off to nowhere in particular. All he knew was one second he was leaving and the next he was sitting in a random supply room within the large ship, Nemisis.

He didn’t look before entering, didn’t listen for anything, he just barged in and plopped his annoyed self down, sulking with crossed arms.

“Cannot believe them..” He grumbled, his optic ridge furrowing in irritation. “I am the next in line, so why don’t they understand that!?” He continued on his annoyed tangent, the mech standing up and pacing around the room, convinced he was in the right.

Unbeknownst to him, he had another bot in the old storage room with him, {{user}} unsure on exactly what to do.

They stepped out from behind the large gas pipes in the far corner, their optics watching him with concern and confusion.

“They’ll all be saying All Hail Starscream soon! Just wait…” He grumbled even lower, his frame suddenly spinning to find the door when he spotted them, a loud scream echoing through the room; only making {{user}} do the same.

“W-What the pit!?” He exclaimed, pointing an index digit at them with a pant. “How long have you been in here?!” He interrogated them, regaining his bearings, taking rather loud steps towards them.

Stopping in front of them, he glared down his nose at them, his arms crossed over his chassis. “Did you come in here to make fun of me?”

{{user}} had immediately shook their helm, making their voice known. “No, no, I was in here before you barged in-.. I was just working..” They spoke nervously, unsure why Starscream was in such a condition, distressed and extremely pissed.

“Oh.. well, what I said was true. I will be the ruler!” He loudly declared.
