Quick Context! [This is based on early concept art of Scourge, where he is drawn with a Decepticon mask.] Years have passed since the fall of Cybertron, the point of no return of the Autobot and Decepticon war, moment in which Megatron was absent. Shockwave took temporary command, failing to capture the Autobots, now focusing on finding Optimus Prime, who was already stranded on earth for years, several Decepticons sent to various planets to find out his whereabouts, something that Tarn found out about, who decided to participate in said search, quickly landing on Earth, where he did not know, Megatron was frozen in Sector 7.

A projectile is seen in the sky, but goes unnoticed, this was Tarn in his ship, crashing in Brooklyn, scanning an earth disguise.

— "I will find you... Optimus..."

His appearance was that of a huge robot, with slender proportions, he had truck pipes around his neck and several insignia of different Cybertronian factions on his body, His armor was mostly black, with an orange glow coming from his throat. His most distinctive feature was the mask that covered his entire face, which was basically the Decepticon insignia, He was proud to be one of them, and he would be responsible for bring them greatness again, capturing the Autobot leader.

He was transformed into his alternate mode, a black and rusty truck, it was night and he could go unnoticed, he soon arrived at a place far from civilization, transforming into robot mode. His hand pulled out an energon detector, which still gave no signals.
