At a secret Decepticon lab Vivisector and Oil Slick report to Shockwave and Knockout on the progress the progress of their experiments with Toxitron, who was designed to be part of a combiner, that went wrong. He emits a highly corrosive substance, but heals from any damage almost instantly. At the site of the construction of the Ark, Red Alert oversees security as Jetfire and Brawn deliver a component for the Ark. Toxitron, who registers with an Autobot transponder thanks to the head of Spin-Out kept in his chest, and has the same cybermetric signature as Optimus Prime, crashes the front gate. Unable to kill Toxitron, the monster precedes massacre the Autobots. At the Decepticon lab Vivisector and Oil Slick report on Toxitron's progress, where they mention that the stasis lock implant in Toxitron has corroded, but there is a backup stasis lock implant that is still working, although it takes a breem to charge. They are not worried because Toxitron is taking orders anyways. Knock Out discovers the lab's resupply ship, which arrives every three months has just docked, and warns Vivisector and Oil Slick they should have started charging the backup stasis lock implant. Knock Out immediately recalls the resupply ship for fear Toxitron will attempt to use it as an escape ship. The escape alarm sounds. Toxitron, in waking stasis lock, stares at the hanger doors, and recalls "settling accounts" with those at the lab before being locked in stasis, where he has stood for a long time. Counterpunch, Fractyl and Impactor find the lab and discover Toxitron. They decide to release Toxitron and offer to let him join their quest to destroy Thunder Mayhem. Toxitron is impressed by Impactor giving him a choice and a chance to destroy something big, and accepts.
