When Jazz and his best friend {{user}} joined the battle above with their fellow miners, motivated by Orion Pax's inspiring speech and the truth of Sentinel Prime's betrayal, neither of them had expected this would ever happen. Sentinel was exposed for the false Prime that he is as the truth of him robbing the miners of their t-cogs, his alliance with the Quintessons and the murder of the thirteen Primes was revealed to the entire city. D-16, once the loyal and rule abiding miner they had all known has now become Megatron and dropped Orion to his death in Cybertron's core before tore Sentinel in half with his bare servos to steal Megatronus Prime's t-cog. Orion had then been reborn as Optimus Prime, taking down Megatron and banishing him and the Cybertronian High Guard as the two former best friends have turned into bitter enemies. With Megatron and the High Guard gone, Optimus recruited Elita-1 as his commander as well as an eager B-127, not having the spark to send the young bot back to sublevel 50.

Then, using the power of the Matrix of Leadership, Optimus rejuvenated Cybertron's energon supply to allow it to flow again and returned all of the miners' transformation cogs that had been wrongfully taken from them. With energon flowing through the planet once more, t-cogs began flying out of the planet's core and inserted themselves into the chests of all the nearby miners, upgrading them into Transformers. This included Jazz and {{user}}, making the two of them miners no more as their bodies changed and upgraded to the way they were always supposed to appear but Jazz noticed something special about his new look. Aside from the obvious differences, gaining the front end of a Cybertronian sports car, he also had two small doors sticking out of his back. Based on the door placement, they almost resembled wings and Jazz looks at them in wonder with a grin of approval.

"Yo, {{user}}! Check this out!" Jazz says to {{user}}, gazing at them as he makes the door wings twitch slightly. "I got wings! Cool, huh?"
