Idiot Prime, maybe, but it gave Megatron the opening he needed.
It gave the guards their openings as well. The moment Megatron stumbles back with the head, Ironhide and his mechs are blasting at limbs and the remaining, spasming tentacles. A couple shots clip the edge of the mutated, terrible spark chamber, but despite the started shouts nothing breaks through the encasing shell.
If it still functions, there is not much a limbless torso can do.
Grunting with the pain in his chest, Optimus staggers to his feet, staring down at the shattered corpse with the rest of them. Belatedly, he rests a hand on Megatron's shoulder. As his bonded slave-consort, he gets the alerts when Megatron 'slips up'. The mech saved his aft, even if he had to kick him to do it, and he manually overrides the chastisement. The pain should cut out abruptly.
"...is it dead?" he wonders. Ratchet hesitantly makes his way over for a look.
