Fiction

EarthSpark cartoon

Starscream, Skywarp, Nova Storm, the Terrans and Mo and Robby Malto encountered the creature after the former three escaped from G.H.O.S.T. custody into the ancient tunnels beneath their base, and the latter seven when they fell into the tunnels while spelunking for the cave water they need to reenergize. Nova Storm and Skywarp got ensnared in its tendrils, but the Terrans managed to fight it off, with Hashtag using her ability to connect to the tunnels automated doors to try and close it off. They nearly succeeded, but Starscream ran in a different direction from everyone else, drawing it away. Wanting to help Starscream, Hashtag followed him. They managed to stave it off, learning that the cave water was poison to it, and later reunited with the others in a sort of map room. The Dweller was getting close to the surface, so they vowed to stop it from ever leaving the tunnels. They split into teams to cut it off, but realized that only Hashtag could close the doors, which lead to their capture by the beast. Hashtag and Starscream followed it to its lair, and in fighting it they broke through to another level, with a big pit full of cave water. Hashtag was knocked into the pit, and Starscream was at its mercy. But in the nick of time, Hashtag emerged from the water with her strength increased, and she dragged the Dweller into the water, killing it. What Dwells Within
