Wing offers a deal in which Drift can leave the city if he can beat him. The pair spar, with Wing always coming out on top.

Because of the danger involved with allowing a Decepticon know of their existence and thus endangering the whole city, Dai Atlas decides Drift will become the Wing's responsibility. Wing questions why the laws of the Circle of Light would expect him to leave a fellow Cybertronian to die on the surface, not to mention leaving the Slavers' victims behind. Wing is summoned before Dai Atlas and his council to explain why he brought a Decepticon into their city and revealed himself to the slavers. Wing counters by comparing the slums and desperation of Cybertron to the utopia of Crystal City and then questioning Drift's Decepticon motives.
Its population was made up of scholars, scientists, and those who didn't wish to fight.īack in the present, Wing and Drift debate each other's motives, Drift's for choosing to fight in an 'ideological' war and Wing's for running away which Drift deems to be 'cowardly'. Realising that the war was spreading beyond Cybertron, the decision was made to build the new Crystal City underground. The Circle of Light then convened and decided to slip away to find another planet to live on. Wing explains to Drift about the war on Cybertron and how those who refused to take sides had little hope of surviving.
