DarkStar watched the Autobot mechanic work on the repairs. If Prime had taken off in pursuit of some potential energon source among the stars, it would be an absolute certainty the Megatron left to pursue. If the Prime took his elites, then so did Megatron. This was not good news for DarkStar. This meant his quarry was not on this world anymore. If the Air Commander was extinguished in battle out there, there would be no way to get his revenge. DarkStar needed power now. He needed to have the strength to challenge the Air Commander once he returned to Cybertron. DarkStar could not reason out how to do it, but he would do it. DarkStar looked at the mechanic and gave a small smile. He spoke hoping to get an emotionable response from the Autobot, "It sounds to me like your noble Prime has abandoned you? There are no known energon sources among the stars thus no guarantee of success. He knew he could not hold Iacon so he took his best bots and ran away."
