Tarn continues to aim the cannon at Megatron, anger blazing in his optics. It hums to life, pink light bathing both of their frames as he directs more power to it. How dare he. He tries to fire but falters. And again.

It feels wrong. Tarn desperately tries to snap himself out of it. Megatron deserves this. He abandoned the Decepticons. He betrayed the cause. He can not afford to show this weakness in front of his old leader.

The light from the fusion cannon dims slightly as Tarn wars with himself.
