Crosshairs

"Yes I've been waiting for them to dispatch each other so that I can take charge with no trouble at all, just me reporting to me'."

- Crosshairs expressing his ambition of becoming Autobot Leader Crosshairs is an Autobot Paratrooper, you wouldn't exactly call him a team player as his complaining attitude often annoys the other Autobots, he considers anything a waste of time if he doesn't gain something in return, yet his skills in the air and vast knowledge of explosives and booby traps proves his worth to the group. However once in a deep thread he will eventually lend a hand or two, unless forced to do so instead.

History
After the Battle of Chicago, Crosshairs became one of the Autobots who went into hiding after humanity turned against them, he was ecstatic upon Optimus Prime's return alongside Bumble Bee, Hound and Drift; when conversing about their situation he quickly pulled his gun aiming at the Yeager family whom he referred to as Stowaways until Optimus ordered him to cease fire. Later at night when the Autobot's were discussing their current situation, Crosshairs found Bee and Drift's fighting rather enjoyable whilst expressing his personal intention of being Autobot leader with only himself around; however once viewing the footage of Leadfoot's tragic demise received by Cade he accompanied his team in order to avenge his fallen brother-in-arms.

Once arriving in Chicago he and the other Autobots devised their plan to infiltrate KSI alongside Cade Yeager upon viewing Ratchet's decapitated head being melted down he eagerly joined the Autobots on their ferocious assault on the facility to avenge his friend, it was until Optimus ordered a retreat, Crosshairs joined the others in escaping the scene however upon being intercepted by Galvatron he was separated from his leader whom the latter was then captured by Lockdown.

He joined the Autobot's in an attempt to rescue their recently captured leader, upon entering the bounty hunter's ship he informed the team of the several traps and surprises that were on board; after minimal searching Crosshairs stated he was leaving much to the dismay of Cade whom the Autobot pushed him aside asking what was in it for (him) this caught the attention of Hound whom the commando held at gunpoint Crosshairs trying to ease the argument to no avail Hound firmly instructed him to help find Optimus or he would kill him.

Personality
Crosshairs is a rather cynical and complainative member of the Autobots whom doesn't really show much concern for his fellow teammates as shown when he enjoyed watching Bumble Bee and Drift fight hoping for both of them to destroy each other and has a personal desire of becoming leader of the Autobots. In addition he was eager to leave Lockdown's ship without making any attempt to rescue Optimus Prime or Tessa to the point where he begrudgingly questioned "what's in it for me", it was until Hound threatened him to aid the others or the latter would kill him.

Despite this he later utilized his piloting skills to rescue Bumble Bee aswell as the Yeager family from a building which proves that he can be selfless when he chooses to be. He has a low opinion on humanity mainly because of their betrayal on the Autobots and upon hearing the humans struggling against the KSI drones, Crosshairs believed they deserved what was coming however eventually he aided the Autobots to save the Yeager family from those who would bring harm upon them.

Skills and Abilities
Crosshairs is a skilled paratrooper as proven after jumping off and shooting down multiple enemy ships with his sharp precision and accuracy in addition he stores a set of parachutes in his back to give him an Ariel advantage. In terms of weaponry he carries an arsenal of firearm's which are stored within his trench coat. He has also demonstrated rather proficient piloting skills as he evaded the perusing enemy ships and was able to outmaneuver them by collapsing a bridge on top of one with the ship's canon's.

Optimus Prime
"Mister leader of the free galaxy's back, I knew you'd make it I've never doubted ya."

Bumble Bee
The two have few interactions though the two appear to have a stable relationship, after Bumble Bee managed to save the Yeager family after falling off the bounty hunters ship, Crosshairs came to his aid with a stolen drone ship the two were able to work quite well together, however Crosshairs was shown to be slightly annoyed and quickly pushed Bumble Bee aside so that the latter could fly and he could shoot at the enemy drone ships.

Hound
"What's in it for you is I don't kill ya ." - Hound firmly addressing Crosshairs Of all the Autobots Hound has shown to be mostly irritated by Crosshairs attitude as shown when the latter enjoyed viewing the others fighting and expressed his desire of becoming the new leader where Hound simply shook his head. During the Autobots infiltration on Lockdown's ship Crosshairs was all ready to leave after barely searching it was immediately after when he brushed Cade aside asking what was in for (him) Hound replied by pointed his gun and firmly informed him that he would kill him if he was uncooperative to which Crosshairs complied labeling his methods as very persuasive.

Drift
Though the two have had few interactions it is shown that Crosshairs and Drift have a rather neutral relationship; Whilst on board Lockdown's ship, Drift informed Crosshairs about their suspected time limit they had to save their leader. When the Autobot's were separated from the others, the two were both shocked and amazed at the sight of the Dinobots even so when Optimus fought against Grimlock. Crosshairs advised his friend to evade the fighting allowing Optimus to deal with the Dinobot to which Drift agreed, after Optimus proved victorious over Grimlock; Crosshairs commented upon Optimus' dynamic leadership where Drift smiled noting their leader's position.

Ultimately the two respect and look for each other.

Cade Yeager
"What's in it for you?" - Cade responding to an unwilling Crosshairs
