When the Autobot ship exploded, Stardrive used her starfighter mode to scoop them up and carry them to safety, crash-landing on the icy planet below. While Rom and the other Space Knights bought time for the crew to evacuate, Bumblebee again tried to talk to Stardrive as the two Autobots headed for their shuttle at the same time that Rom told her to evacuate. Seconds later, Sky Blast was forcibly assimilated by a Wraith, and the resulting fusion mutated out of control and threatened the space station's structural integrity. Bumblebee tried to mediate with her, but Stardrive assumed that it was another attack, fighting off him and Sky Blast. The appearance of the Autobots threw the battle lines into chaos mistaking Stardrive for a Decepticon, Magnus blew her, Rom, and Starscream through the wall. Something's familiar 'bout these strangers like me. A terrified Stardrive was cornered by Starscream, who nearly got his hands on his prize before the Autobots Bumblebee and Ultra Magnus, who had been tracking the Decepticons across space, joined the battle. The next morning's meeting quickly went off the rails when the Council's representatives revealed themselves as Wraiths in disguise and their ship transformed into Astrotrain, vanguard for a larger Decepticon insurgency led by Starscream, who had formed an alliance with Vekktral to steal Stardrive's energon synthesizer. Rom agreed with Stardrive's assessment the matter settled, the two senior Knights brought Stardrive with them on their next mission: negotiations with the Galactic Council regarding the threat of a potential Wraith migration into Council territory.Īrriving at the space station Orchid Crossing over Xetaxxis, Stardrive was hurt when Rom and Livia revealed that they had deliberately brought along Stardrive to be paraded in front of the Council-proof that the Solstar Order was capable of keeping Cybertronians "in their place"-and Rom's words of encouragement did little to alleviate it. Auxin wasn't particularly thankful for her timely rescue, angry at losing his first kill to "the machine." Stardrive's popularity didn't improve after she argued against Livia's proposal to sterilize the entire colony. When Rom, Livia, and some new cadets arrived and engaged the Wraiths, Stardrive preemptively revealed herself to rescue Auxin from an ambush. Shining Armor #1 Shining Armor #2 She was saved by Rom and a group of Space Knights, and the experience convinced her to join the Space Knights to emulate her hero Rom, and after graduating from the Space Knight's academy, she was bonded to a suit of crystalline armor and granted a pair of Neutralizers.įive years after her "birth", Stardrive was deployed to stake out Mining Colony 25-6-41 in the Farouko Cluster, where she spent a week in her car alternate mode to spring a trap for the Wraiths. On a graduation field trip to Mato Grosso, Stardrive was attacked by the Dire Wraith Vekktral, who tried to assimilate her. The protoform soon developed into a healthy young female Transformer she was raised alongside other alien youngsters and soon discovered her ability to transform into a car Shining Armor #1 and space fighter, Shining Armor #2 from which her classmates nicknamed her "Stardrive." Raised in isolation from her species, Stardrive learned about the destructive legacy of the Cybertronians in her school, with teachers suggesting that with the "proper upbringing," she could do better than the rest of her species. There, scientists managed to stabilize the injured "Gray Area Anomaly," and created an energon synthesizer, reverse engineered from energon samples recovered at the crash site, to nourish it. Rom rescued the survivor and brought it to his home planet of Elonia. The altercation caught the attention of the Space Knight Rom, who investigated the crash site and discovered that all but one of the protoforms had perished. In the mid-19th century, a Camien vessel containing a cargo of protoforms attracted the attention of a Galactic Council warship misidentifying the vessel as a Cybertronian ship, they pursued and shot it down in the Gray Area between Council space and the neighboring Solstar Order.
