Soundwave could feel himself getting weaker as Shrapnel force fed him something Shrapnel and her mates, Kickback and Bombshell, called "Royal Honeygon." Honeygon was an organic form of Energon the Insecticons made, and Shrapnel was force feeding Soundwave the royal version. "I-I mustn't swallow this!! I-It will turn me into an Insecticon!!! B-But it tastes....so good....I want to have more~... N-NO!! I-I can't let them change me!!!" Soundwave fought with himself.
