Tarn tries to step out of the way but isn't quick enough. Megatron slams into his injured shoulder, knocking Tarn flat on his back. The shot from the double fusion cannon misses its target completely, incidentally wrecking a building nearby where Rodimus is staying hidden.

Pain seers through Tarn's arm as Megatron pins him in the dirt. His free hand comes up to grab Megatron by the throat and his equally ridiculous knee comes up between them in an attempt to shove him off.

Words have stopped coming to him at this point. There is only blind rage.
