- Weapon: Fusion Cannon
Lounge
A great big toothy, and rather infamous grin returned to Swindle's faceplate as he watched Brawl leap into the fray of Stunticons. He took a few steps backwards knowing full well that these Stunti-ruffians and his long-time brother in arms were all well known to cause a bit of collateral damage. Couldn't have that now, not when there's a few unaccounted mechs who still need their comeuppance after a certain Constructicon decided he had laid out the munitions expert.
"I'll leave you lot to corral our friend here, I've got to pay a visit to-" the doors to the lounge hissed open, cutting Swindle's train of thought off as the green masses of Constructicons staggered in. "Or they'll just save me the fuel money. Heh."
>>"Warwolf, what's your status? I mean. How are you doing?"<< The lupine Decepticon grinned slightly behind his protective faceshield to the femme's inquiry as his actuators continue to trace around the hilt of his closest knife. He reached out for his drink, his mouthplate retracting into the sides of his helm as he downed the energon in a single swig, a trick/habit he picked up during his time as a pirate.
Damn Cloud's missing a hell of a round. He thought as he relaxed a little more into his seat, his mouthplate closing shortly after he adjusted himself and reopened the comm line. >>"Status is green, love. Everything seems to be holding down quite nicely. No need to worry, Wolfy's managing to keep his temper to a bare minimum for now."<<
Did you just call her... "Love"? She is gonna shoot you...
>>"Might wanna check up again in a few minutes, just to be safe."<< Is that concern? Since when has this side of us shown any concern? >>"There's a sense of uneasiness in the lounge, and a few members are about to scrape metal. Warwolf out."<<
"Get involved I would not." Weirdwolf stated in almost a threat-like tone towards the Triplechanger as he held an arm out to hold him back. The commando rose from his seat and brushed off the tracker's hand. It almost made Blitzwing laugh that one of these lupine-shaped Decepticons were trying to tell him of all people to not jump into the fight. It would be like telling Megatron himself to drop the fusion cannon
"Come now, Wolfy," Blitzwing stated with a slight sneer of satisfaction, "We wouldn't want our new leader to see us all fighting each other again. Besides...Who said I was getting involved?" The commando then reached back and grabbed Warwolf's canine tail before heaving all his strength into throwing the lupine Decepticon from his seat and over towards Skullcruncher. The triplechanger then drew his electro-scimitar and began to march across the bar.
As Long Haul entered the lounge with his cohorts, whatever banter Bonecrusher was trying to spew at him was immediately drowned out as his sights became focused on the three Stunticons laying with their backs on the ground and an angered Brawl and Skullcruncher closing in towards them. He felt his energon pumping as his longing for wanting to prove himself as a capable warrior instead of some material transporter nearly cut off all rational thoughts he was able to maintain until this point.
"Save me a pint of whatever you guys get!" Long Haul claimed to his fellow Constructicons as he cracked the joints in his knuckles, "Someone's gotta break up the fight!" He took note of Blitzwing approaching Skullcruncher, his electro-scimitar crackling to life with a violet sheen before it was slowly being brought above his head. Locked onto the triplechanger, the green transporter broke into a full sprint before throwing himself at the commando, his arms stretched outright to wrap his target once the tackle connected.
"What the- GYAAACKK!!" Blitzwing hollered before he was blindsided by the flying Constructicon and tossed a couple feet to the side of the room, the two Decepticons crashing against a table.
-
Needlenose backed up against the cabinets behind him as he watched more Decepticons join in on the fight. He could hear Windsweeper muttering and cursing about the mess he knew he'd have to clean up.
"A mess is something we could always clean up..." The fashionista stated lowly towards the sanitation engineer, his optics still fixated on each individual mech beginning to throw themselves into the fray. "But I can't count on being able to come back from the dead." He quickly drew his gun and kept the firearm low and behind the bar counter. Blitzwing had the right idea to try and break it up before the fight escalated, but in the event this went even further south or came anywhere near the bar... Had to be ready for anything.
Armory
The Combaticon commander strolled in through the massive blast doors and immediately went to work at upping his Arsenal for the upcoming operation he was being sent upon. A couple curses aimed at Vortex for his mishap raced through his ever calculating processor inbetween different plan proposals as he opened a storage locker. He reached in and retrieved a few power packs for his primary rifle before settling down at one of the benches to account for his missile inventory. The battle with the fallen nearly exhausted his entire payload, and he had to be prepared for anything that might happen down upon that blue marble.
>>"Skywarp, Thundercracker, do you copy?"<< he commed the seeker duo as he recalled Razorclaw's orders to bring them along. >>"I'm sending you both your new orders per Razorclaw's instruction. Report to the armory for weapons restock and I can fill you in on most of the details." The blue and green Decepticon then sent the mission's data file to both Seekers before activating a nonverbal "summon" command to his fellow Combaticons. The command was something Onslaught had integrated within the team to help broadcast any member's location without having to open a comm line. In the field it helped keep their unit from being discovered during their more secretive operations, but Onslaught soon found use in allowing himself to quietly get his men to form up on him without drawing suspicion.
And now he waited... Rearming his cache of photon mistakes and waiting for his makeshift strike force to fall in before they traverse down to Earth and acquire the stolen goods.
Bridge
With Razorclaw gone elsewhere aboard the ship, the bridge was now left in charge with Soundwave overseeing the other three Predacons. His highly tuned audio receptors were scanning the length of the ship, offering him clairvoyance over most of each individual's current actions or whereabouts. Internally, Soundwave let loose a small chuckle as he fixated over Shockwave's lab and overheard the cyclop's rebuttal to Octane's longing for some sort of respect, even though the thought seemed to be lost on the Decepticon fueler.
An alert then drew Soundwave's attention from his audial sweeping of the ship. Someone was trying to contact him specifically, but the source was foreign, coming from outside the ship. The Burning Justice, to be precise.
>>"Decepticon Soundwave--this is Chief Huntsman Scourge, from High Commander Scorponok's Second Expansion Fleet. The High Commander requests a direct connection with Lord Megatron, Slagmaker of Tarn and Emperor of Destruction."<<
The communications officer pondered the request as he tried to fathom up a reply that could keep himself within the good graces of both parties, all the while still wondering where Megatron himself had disappeared off to. He switch frequencies over to a private comm line with the newly appointed Supreme Commander, hailing him with a Priority-1 comm-line.
>>"Lord Razorclaw, the Burning Justice has hailed the ship. Lieutenant Scourge and subsequently, Commander Scorponok, wishes to speak with our former Supreme Commander. How do you wish to reply?"<<
While awaiting for his Supreme Commander's reply, Soundwave was setting up a few electronic countermeasures he could set in place to buy he and the crew more time should the hunter grow impatient. Without a proper communications officer, such a tactic could easily pass off as electrical interference coming from any recent solar flare activity from the local sun. All he needed was confirmation now...
