Bounce Chamber

Nightraven moved slightly to let Drag Strip and Wildrider pass by as she and Skywarp entered the bounce chamber. The order to abandon ship was strange to begin with, but when Starscream cancelled said order Nightraven flashed Skywarp a confused look. What in the Pit was going on? Before she was able to voice her concerns, Ramjet made his presence known.

Not wanting a confrontation between the conehead and Skywarp, Nightraven stepped between the two. She then looked over her shoulder at the teleporter as she too felt the strong shudder pass through the ship. Her attention was brought back to Ramjet as it seemed he was trying his best to apologize for the altercation in the repair bay. Trying, but falling far short.

At that moment the white and maroon conehead stopped mid-sentence and fell to the floor unconscious. With a concerned expression plastered on her face, Nightraven looked back over her shoulder in time to see Skywarp fall to the floor as well.

“Sky…”

Her concern faded as her systems began to shut down. Unable to stay upright any longer the femme’s body fell to the floor in an unceremonious heap between Ramjet and Skywarp. With any luck their trek to the surface would be over quickly and everyone onboard would be back online sooner rather than later.

Med Bay

Breakdown continued to follow closely behind Dead End as both mechs entered the med bay. He grew nervous when the Stunticon warrior pull ahead and made his way to one of the CR chambers but he never entered it. Breakdown quickened his pace while he kept his attention on all of the mechs and equipment scattered about the area.

With his optics preoccupied with his surroundings, Breakdown’s advance was halted when he slammed into Dead End’s back.

“Oof! Ssssorry,Dead.”

The white and blue mech looked up at the ceiling as the announcement from Starscream came through the ship wide comm system. Not only did it have the paranoid Stunticon’s processor reeling, but his entire frame began to vibrate. Optics wide in fear and uncertainty, Breakdown looked down to Dead End as his team mate crouched down as close to the floor as possible.

“D…do ya really think we’r…”

Breakdown’s sentence ceased as the ship entered its transwarp jump and the null field took effect. The scout’s optics grew dark as he hit the floor with a resounding thud.

Hallway

Runabout and Runamuck tore down the vacant halls of the Ultrax at speeds that would make humans loose the contents of their stomachs, or black out from the pressure. It wasn't a race to see who was the best, or who was the more superior built battlecharger, it was to get the concentrated energon out of Runabout's system so that he wouldn't do any harm to anyone else, let alone himself.

Runamuck had fallen behind his more juiced up brother, but he wasnt caring because the sooner that the pure energon was gone from his system, the more he could breath and...

...well that was interesting. There was a shudder that ran through the entire ship and the next thing Runamuck knew...well, that was it he was out cold.

Runabout had registered that his brother had fallen very far behind in the battle-dash, and slid to a stop and hailed his brother. He didn't know what was about to happen.

"Hey bro.. why'd you stop?" Runabout began "not getting tired already? Seriously you can just..."

And that was it. Runabout had went out like a light, and had fallen idle in the middle of one of the Ultrax's corridors as the command of Starscream had taken full effect.

Bridge

Rampage had helped monitor the ship's systems as best he could for as long as he could, before stepping away and taking a more braced position as Razorclaw had ordered.

From a slight distance, Rampage still kept his optics on the various readouts and could see null field being prepared.

"We meet on the other side," Rampage said, consciously shutting off his own optics and wondering if it might have been for the last time. It wasn't long after that before the effects of the null field kicked in and Rampage slid the rest of the way down to the ground, unconscious.

Repair Bay

Dead End hadn't let it bother him when Breakdown practically ran him down.

Not too much.

"Another dent that's going to take forever to buff out of my finish. Why don't you..."

Dead End didn't finish his complaint, as Starscream's voice soon captured their attention. Breakdown didn't even have a chance to get his next sentence out before the effects of whatever they were doing on the bridge took hold. Dead End found himself in a similar position. He felt a jerk of momentum, before his optics went dark and his systems shut off.

"Just grea...." he had managed to sputter, before slumping over to one side.
