Playing Rough

Blackarchnia would be a Specialist with science skills under Shockwaves command along with her sister Arachnid.  

But the war takes it's toll on Silverbolt going form combat zone to combat zone compiled with the stress of command he starts it starts to get to him, but when he and Blackarachnia are separated from there units during an ion storm. They grow close and start arranging to meet up, with Silver giving her coordinates to isolated location in each new Sector the Aerialbots are sent too. 

For a while they kept each other content with conversation and other thing, helping each other too cope with the war. 
But then Arachnid, who was growing tired of a debt she owed Shockwave, grew suspicious of her Sisters absences and eventually track her to one of her meeting with the Aerialbot Commander. Taking this info to Shockwave allowing her too be free of his debt. Giving up her Sister to Shockwaves newest creations The Psychic Patch. Blackarachnia survived, but with the coordinates taken from her and Shockwave already tracking the Aerialbots movements he was able to predict the units next stop and set up an ambush for the Team. Leaving Silvervolt as the last of the Aerialbots.

He eventually found the Lab Blackrachnia was kept at and learned from her what had happened. Ashamed that his own need for comfort cost the lives of his team, he returned to Cybertron after letting his love go (there relationship having suffered from this incident and needed time apart) and told the Autobot council everything.

 Fearing the loss of Moral however the whole incident was kept Top Secret by the council to avoid it, while a secret Court Marshall took place against Silverbolt with Optimus as his deface. 

During the event the crushed Aerialbot became enraged, when he figured out that they where more concerned with punishing him, rather than tracking down Shockwave. So Silverbolt, disgusted with the council, resigned his commission with the Autobot Military so he could track the Decepticon scientist down himself, Painting Four Aerialbot symbols on his kill markings on his chassis as he felt responsible fro there deaths. Once he was described as a knight in Shining armour, this tragady had rendered him a Knight in Rusted Armour, he still remains polite and dutiful only now a far more damaged aura.  

The as the whole thing was kept confidential only Optimus, Silverbolt and the Council knew the true reason for this to the rest of the Autobots the events remained a mystery. A few cycles later the Council was assassinated by the Decepticons leaving the facts only known to Two Autobots, one Deception scientist and two wandering, estranged, sisters.
