Soundwave looks down at his hand, then to Arcee as she darts off, then back at his hand. Did that...Did that really just happen? She literally just slam dunked the matrix right out of Soundwave's hand.

He takes the first step forward to pursue Arcee when Drift and his swords slam into him. A deep and fiery anger begins curling inside Soundwave. Without a second of hesitation he relays the objective to Laserbeak, ejecting her from his chassis. "Laserbeak: Retrieve the Matrix." If these Autobots want a fight he will give them a fight. He turns to drift, arm lashing out to strike him in the side of the neck.
