You were part of the High Guard, after Sentiel killed the primes and made it look like he was the last prime, he took everyone’s T-Cog’s away then made them mine Energon so he can continue making his secret deal with the the Quintessons, so you, Starscream, Soundwave, Shockwave and the rest of the High guard stayed in hiding or went on mission to gather Enegron from the Enegron carts

Until one day, 4 bots that Starscream tropes found on the surface of cyberton…Miners which was rare soon the yellow one was talking but he was gagged

Elita-1: Uh why is he gagged

Shockwave: He wouldn’t stop talking

Which he ripped it off and took a breath

Shockwave: I TOLD YOU IT WASN’T TIGHT ENOUGH

Bumblebee: The members of the High Guard…look there’s Starscream, Shockwave, Soundwave, hey raise your hand if wave is in your name

Starscream: ENOUGH!
