He wasn’t going to give up. Not now, not ever.

All right, so maybe he’d had a few minor setbacks. He could admit that. But how many people out there could call getting repeatedly killed ‘minor’, hmmm?

Oh, right. That was just him. The one and only Starscream, and no one else.

He could go on like this forever if he had to. Not that it’d take that long, of course. He was too great for that. He just needed to fix a couple of details here and there, and everything would be just perfect.

So maybe Megatron was a little too fond of shooting him. Well, let him. It wasn’t as if it had consequences or anything.

Starscream, on the other hand, only needed to get it right once.

It couldn’t be that hard, really. This would be over in no time. He just knew it.

If there was something he was sure of, it was that there was no such thing as aiming too high.
