As the Autobots rushed to the gold mine, a Decepticon Spy alerted Megatron.

"Sir, they're coming this way!" The Decepticon spy said.

"Perfect. Set up all units against them. How many are there?" Megatron asked.

"Hmm... I saw around 50, but more are joining the cause every minute." The spy said. Megatron jumped back in his chair.

"You mean they have the Allspark to bring more mechanical things to life?" Megatron asked again, frightened.

"Yes, the Allspark seems to have been set on making only Autobots. I'd say there was... 200 of them by now." The spy replied.

"Order ALL available reinforcements to the mines!" Megatron said, even more scared.

Optimus Prime led the large number of Autobots. According to his sensors, there were about 350 by now. Ethan was doing a good job getting new Autobots. The Allspark must have been set on making Autobots and not Decepticons. Every three seconds, another Autobot would come into existence.

"Oh NO!" Ethan said. A shard was missing from the Allspark cube. He kept bumping more cars and trucks, and the occasional motorhome or trailer.

Meanwhile, the Allspark Hunters had returned to Megatron with a shard of the Allspark. He could use it as many times as he wanted, for as many things as he needed. He transformed into Cybertronian Jet Mode and took the shard with him.

Megatron eventually figured that the effect of the Allspark shard was reversed, and it would now create only Decepticons. He had gone through numerous procedures to make sure it would last permanently. He could create about 100 decepticons per hour. He had created
185 by the time Optimus and the 450 troops arrived at the gold mine. In total, the Decepticons equaled about 432, and the Autobots had 452, counting Ethan and Sam. The battle that would ensue next would be one of the largest battles the Autobots and Decepticons had ever known.
