Omega Supreme, now that he can take stock of himself, is pretty battered. He's walking wounded, but he's nowhere near full combat capacity. He reports, //Systems: 75%.// if he drops to 25%, he'll probably pass out, his body's attempt to keep him from getting himself killed.
He gets up. He looks at the others. Omega Supreme suggests, //Suggestion: run. Directions: different.//
Then he tries to pump a shot into Lugnut.

//Scattering is a good idea!// Magnus says, echoing Omega as he watches Lugnut hit the ground. Everyone else is much too close. //Move!// Magnus scowls and hauls out his rifle; Omega may have more firepower, but if Magnus can help him keep their attacker a little more off-balance, he buys the guardian and the others that much more time.
With the advantage of a little more distance to give him time and room, Magnus shoulders his rifle and aims at that thrashing pile of tarpaulin and scaffolding, waiting for the titan to wrestle free so he can take a shot at Lugnut's face. He doesn't want to wait; he wants to rush in and beat down the threat in front of him. He can't let that impulse win. He can't just attack headlong. He needs to make himself think; he needs a plan. He takes quick glances at his surroundings, looking for things he can use.

"Hey! I ain't leaving Omega behind!" Long Haul protests. However, even he recognizes that he's far outclassed by Lugnut, so he looks around, trying to find some advantage - or, in the lack of an advantage, something to throw at Lugnut. He spots a grabber machine filled with stuffed animals and rushes towards it. He starts to pick the thing up, then hesitates.
"Hey! How come these toys're crying?" he asks.

It never even occurs to Swoop to run away, and forming a plan is right out. He produces his flail from subspace and runs toward the mess of tent with Lugnut in it, twirling his weapon over his head and shrieking.

Omega's attack punches through the tarp and scaffolding with little to no resistance. Lugnut's armor is rather tougher, but he still grunts in pain as it hits him, making him trash more frantically to get out, like a mad animal caught in a net.
Then, he can move his arm again. He does not hesitate. He is still half hidden by the mess of circus he has found himself in, but the Autobots can still see the unmistakable glow of his POKE being charged up. They have a moment to either try and stop him or get the hell out of there.

Jetfire scatters up, blasting into the air, but he doesn't go very far. He's not about to leave his teammates to face this monster alone! Flinging out his hands in front of him, he unleashes a blast of flame directly at the crazed titan.
Wait, fire plus circuit tent? He's not sure if this was a good idea or a bad idea.

It just so happens that the water-proofing paint on the circus tent makes the fabric very, very flammable.
Omega Supreme, unfortunately, knows what that POKE charging means and what it can do. He takes aim with his head cannon and tries to shoot the button in the middle.
Then he runs, trying to pick up Long Haul and carry him off. As much as Omega Supreme would like to just throw himself on Lugnut, he can't protect anyone if he is dead.

OOC: Skipping Ultra Magnus due to time out.
Long Haul manages to just pull up the grabber machine when... Omega Supreme picks him up! Startled, he drops the machine and is carried away. The glass shatters, and the badly sewn up toys scatter to the floor. Some... look like they might be leaking where the glass has cut them, and they seem to be squirming, as if trying to pull themselves away.

Wait, everyone is running, really? Despite being from the same reality, Swoop has never actually fought Lugnut, and is clueless as to the dangers of his trademark Punch of Kill Everything. He's swinging his flail to try to smash in whatever part of the Decepticon behemoth he can reach at the same time Omega is taking his shot.

Omega Supreme is running. Magnus isn't sure how much this Omega Supreme is like his own, but they're similar enough that the sight of the titan retreating chills his spark.
"Damned Dinobots," he growls, thinking of Grimlock when he sees how stubborn Swoop is. Dinobots always complicate things. He lowers his rifle, bellowing, "Jetfire! Swoop! Get away!" But when it looks like Swoop isn't listening, Magnus curses, throws his rifle back into storage, and charges. If Swoop is anything like Grimlock and his cohorts, he's probably tough enough to endure most things. Magnus can't just run and leave another Autobot, nevertheless, and he grabs the flailing fool. He'll drag Swoop away if he can, or shield him if he must from whatever Lugnut can dish out.

The blast hits the red button.
The world explodes.
The explosion en wraps the area around the behemoth. It destroys everything non-living around him, even the floor he is standing on. Lugnut roars as it gives way and is cast down, sending him tumbling down into the darkness beneath the circus, leaving the Autobots to deal with the damage left in his wake.

Jetfire does as he's told this time, transforming and blasting away from Lugnut as the 'Con suddenly appears to explode. Time to outrun a shock wave!

See? That is why Omega Supreme was running. That is also why he tried to trigger the punch early with a shot, so it would at least come on his own terms.
He's still knocked down face-first into a vat of something like benzene cotton candy, and he tries to cradle and shelter Long Haul with his own body to protect hims from the blast wave. There's yet more internal damage from the way it wracks his frame, but he still manages, //Report.//

Long Haul is largely sheltered by the blast and by the distance (Omega had, after all, been running when it went off), though he is in a vat of cotton candy. With Omega Supreme on top of him. "Erm, beneath you. And maybe stuck."
The dolls have been destroyed in the explosion.

Magnus is large enough to pick up Swoop any carry him bodily if he has to. The pterandon-former squawks indignantly as he's plucked off the ground from behind and dragged away. The problem is, he's carrying a flail. A chain weapon is much like a Dinobot, in a way. The business end of it keeps going in whatever direction you point it, even when you'd like it to stop. The business end of Swoop's flail is currently coming back around toward Swoop and Ultra Magnus.
It's still better than getting hit by Lugnut, though.
