During the battle, Starscream attacked several human aircraft that attempted to intervene and destroyed a Blackhawk chopper that sought to pick up the AllSpark. The Decepticons followed the Autobots to Mission City where a furious battle erupted for possession of the AllSpark. Megatron then emerged and met with his old lieutenant, berating him for failing to retrieve the Cube.

When Starscream arrived at Hoover Dam, he saw that the Autobots were fleeing along with several human vehicles, taking the Cube with them. Begrudgingly, Starscream rallied the other Decepticons to liberate their leader. The time ventually came when his covert agent Frenzy discovered both the AllSpark and the inert Megatron, contained within the headquarters of Sector Seven located beneath Hoover Dam. While on Earth, he infiltrated the United States Air Force by taking on the form of an F-22 Raptor fighter jet. Starscream would have happily left Megatron to his fate and taken the AllSpark for himself, but the other Decepticons remained fiercely loyal to Megatron and would not have stood for Starscream's treachery.īy 2007, Starscream had led a small Decepticon task force to Earth to find Megatron and the AllSpark. Centuries later, Megatron would send a signal to his forces informing them that the AllSpark was on Earth where he too was frozen in ice. This was a token promotion at best as Starscream still had no real authority, since the other Decepticons were acting on Megatron's last orders before his departure.
