Above the Central Hub

Starscream was altering his course and lining up for a run on the location that Slipstream had designated with his cluster bombs when he received the communique from Shockwave came in. Shockwave? What the frag was he doing here? The Commander had figured he would have more time before anyone else showed up here at Earth, but that time frame was clearly much smaller then he had anticipated. He lined up for the bombing run.

>>Get clear, I'm dropping my bombs now.<<

Starscream calledo ut his warning before dropping his bombs on the area where Ratcher and Warpath were fighting Slipstream and Waspinator, and then pulled up and away from the site.

>>Shockwave, the current objectives were to secure a supply of energon as well as to engage the Autobots in an effort to stretch their own resources and battlefield assets. The energon has been procured, but the engagement with the Autobots has reached a stalemate at best. We already have one Decepticon in stasis lock and our opponents include Ironhide and Warpath. We are not making much headway, my assessment is to begin a withdrawal from the area in an effort not to squander the resources we have already secured.<<

Knowing he had to deal with this situation as it is Starscream stifled a sigh of frustration and over looked the situation on the ground. Seeing that his forces were not making the head way he had hoped, he knew the best course of action at this point was to withdraw back to the Ultrax to avoid further damage.

>>Decepticons, we cannot maintain this engagement. Secure the energon we have procured and prepare to return to the Ultrax. Secure our injured as well, we do not want to leave any behind.<<

Iranian Desert – Central Hub

Ratchet had made sure to move behind Warpath once the tankformer took on his alternate form. There was no need to be a hero and charge after a Seeker and a very determined Insecticon. The CMO let gave a groan when the boisterous tank tried to thank him for saving his life.

“Yeah, well, if I didn’t save ya I’d get an audio full from Prowl, and I’m in no mood to hear it from him! Now, take those two out so we can get out of here!”

Just as the medic finished he heard the all too familiar sound of jet engines, and not just any engines. Ratchet looked over his shoulder and was shocked to see Starscream himself joining in the battle.

“The slag…”

He cut himself off as he noticed the Seeker Commander was not veering off, but instead was taking on a strafing run. Ratchet’s optics widened in fear as he pushed away from Warpath and started to run for cover.

“Warpath! Take cover! Screamer’s making a run and dropping his cluster….”

He was cut off when the ordinance hit laying waste to the area where Ratchet had just stood. The shock wave propelled his body through the air before he finally landed unceremoniously on a pile of debris.

The mangled CMO let out a series of Cybertronian profanities as he struggled to sit upright. Dirt, scratches and dents covered his body but he was still in good enough shape to stand up.

“Glitching, slagheaded, fragged up, spawn of a pleasure bot!”

The stream of foul language came to a halt as he carefully stepped to the edge of the partially standing wall and took a peek around it.

“I swear to Primus, if I ever get my hands on that Seeker I’ll tear him a new waste disposal unit.”

The dust still hadn’t settled, but the CMO wanted to be sure Warpath had made it out of the way.

“Warpath! Can you hear me?!”

Warpath reloaded his cannon as he waited to see whether his sonic charge would hit Waspinator, hoping it would take the slagging buzzbot out of action. He didn't get the chance, as soon as he heard the loud sound of a certain seeker's engine.

"BLAM, what's ol' Screamer doing here?", Warpath asked as he targeted the Air Commander.

Suddenly Ratchet ran off, warning the maroon warrior of the incoming bombs. Too slow to move out of the way in his tank mode, Warpath made a last-ditch shot at Starscream, firing an incendiary round at the seeker.

Let's see if the slagger can take as much as he gi-

Warpath's thought was interrupted by the sudden onslaught of clusters bombs raining on top of him. Fiery explosions completely engulfed the tank-bot. The pain was excruciating, as Warpath felt his tough armor taking a beating that he'd rarely felt. After the explosions, several tons of debris fell on top of Warpath, burying his tank treads.

Though the worst was over, he was still in pain, especially on his turret which had recieved the brunt of the blasts. But it was nothing the warrior couldn't walk off, though there was something that just didn't feel right.

Unable to move in his tank mode because of the rubble and the damage to his treads, Warpath slowly transformed back to his robot mode. Despite the damage to his treads, his arms and legs were mostly intact, with a few minor holes in the armor. His chest had taken the hardest beating, large chunks of armor blasted off, and though a few wires hung out and sparked, thankfully none of his vital parts had been damaged. Or at least, none of the parts that were physically vital.

"No....." Warpath said to himself in disbelief, as he realized that something was missing. Something very important to him.

It was then that the warrior heard Ratchet calling to him. Still in shock from his discovery, it took what seemed like mega-cycles for Warpath to respond.

"Yeah.... yeah, I can hear you.", Warpath finally replied, though without any of the energy that he normally spoke with.

Warpath slowly stood up, partially from the damage, partially from the pain, but mostly from the feelings of depression. Where once stood a proud Autobot warrior, now there was a far lesser mech.

With a limp in his left leg, Warpath slowly walked toward the Autobot medic. As he got closer he avoided directly looking Ratchet in the optics. The warrior just continued staring down at his chest, at the stump of metal where his cannon used to be.

Ramjet soared across the desert skies, engines booming. But not as much of a boom as his temper with Slingshot was burning within him.

All his efforts to destroy the mech was failing, and it showed. He grew more and more angry by the second, and he wasn't cooling down.

"Hey you!" Ramjet yelled at the spinning annoyance.

This would get his attention for a micro-second, that micro-second is all that he needs however, as he had just fired his afterburners and laser cannons at the Aerialbot's path in hopes of using Slingshot's acrobatics against him.

Central Hub

Waspinator charged forward, narrowly missing the static shots fired by Ratchet, only to fire more stingers and Ions at the Medic. He was then blasted backwards by the Sonic blast fired by Warpath, he wasn't damaged too seriously. He was in a daze for a few seconds, the explosion caused by Starscream only was a thud compared what he heard. It was just ringing, he was dazed and confused, but then, his senses came back to him seconds later.

"Wazzpinator no like Heal-Bot and Pow-Bot! Wazzpinator attack!!" Waspinator shouted as he launched a volley of Stingers and Ions at the duo.

After that, he launched himself at the medic and stung and punched his chest.

He was actually enjoying himself, but slagging a Medic isn't his idea of fun.

Dirge would have not survived as long as he had if he had been an easy target. The morose seeker was an excellent flyer and while Silverbolt certainly wasn't a slouch on that department. However, the Aerialbot's chosen alt. form gave Dirge a considerable advantage. As did the fact that Silverbolt was still under the effect of the seeker's engines. The bolt of electoricity fired by the Autobot passed by the veteran seekers harmlessly and with Starscream attacking the Autobot from behind, Dirge was freed of his pursuer.

Before Dirge had an opportunity to pick a new target, new orders were given by the commander of the Seekers. Despite holding the air superiority over the Autobots and having a good chance of making their hated enemy pay an enormous price for their attempt to stop the Decepticons - Starscream had decided to retreat. Dirge himself had no trouble to follow the order. Their operation had been a success despite of the casualties. Both the primary and secondary objectives had been reached. A distraction had been provided to the Autobots and energon had been secured. All that was needed was for Skywarp to teleport two other seekers to the site they had hidden their loot and the Decepticons could leave with it. That of course depended on the rescue of Nightraven. Skywarp was clearly way too distracted by this particular femme. A femme that couldn't even hold her own in a battle.

Sighing, Dirge descended towards the motionless form of Nightraven and dropped out his cargo hook. With the magnetized hook grabbing a firm hold of the injured seeker, Dirge began ascending again. Redirecting more power to his engines, the dark blue seeker began accelerating fast with Nightraven in tow. As he did so, his engines continued performing their symphony of despair to prevent the Autobots from following him.

>>"Dirge to the flight group. I have secured Nightraven. I suggest Skywarp picking two other flyers and teleporting to the location of our energon stash."<< With this transmission sent, Dirge wasted no more time getting away from the battlefield. He had no desire to endanger himself any longer than was necessary and by picking up one of his wounded comrades, no one would question his hasty retreat particurlarly as Starscream himself had ordeded a withdrawal.

Silverbolt watched as Starscream banked away then dropped his bombs. The fact the obnoxious Seeker ignored an easy kill stuck with him but his optics widened at the sight of the explosions below. He wanted to fire at the retreating Seeker but he and the other were quickly out of range. His optics were locked on Starscream but his attention was quickly on his comrades on the ground. Through the dust and debris he couldn’t tell if anyone was injured beyond the expected battle damage but at that distance he wasn’t able to see.

What caught his attention was the retreating Seekers. His frame shook with pent up rage at his inabilities to do anything about them. He missed Dirge, not that he really expected to hit him at such a great distance but it was worth a shot. That left Ramjet looked to be in no hurry to leave with the rest.

With a determination bordering on desperation, Silverbolt flew towards Ramjet and Slingshot. Not sure about the duration of Starscream’s null ray, he couldn’t risk transforming and possibly crashing again. He was slower in robot mode but better equipped to fight then in his alt form. Why had he chosen such a form? Shaking his head Silverbolt aimed himself towards the dueling pair hoping he could be of some help.

Anger spiked inside Starscream as he heard the order come in from Shockwave, the fact that walking one eyed calculator thought he could order him around charged the Seekers energon. He wouldn't have it, and he didn't want the energon his warriors had managed to acquire to be used against him.

>>Negative Shockwave. We will be pulling back with our stores of energon back to the Ultrax, it is best that we keep all of our ships in this current system in the best possible state. The Ultrax is in need of supplies and that is where the energon is going. If you wish to speak with me then you can meet me there.<<

Starscream cut the feed as Dirge reported in with his report of recoving the wounded.

>>Decepticons, we shall not dally here any longer. Skywarp, follow through with Dirge's suggestion, get to the energon supply and prepare it for transport. We can no longer afford to remain here.<<

Weapon: Energo-Sword

Hellion growled as Hardhead opened fire on her in his tank mode. A shot struck her in her right arm and she howled in pain, the limb now hanging unmoving at her side. Another struck her in the midsection, doubling her over briefly as it tore into her armor. Fueled by little more then rage at this point she was determined not to lose the battle. With a screech of twisted and torn metal she did her best to transform into her alternate mode. In her recognizable but damaged jet mode she rocketed forward towards the Autobot tank, barely managing to fly straight towards him. As she closed in on him she launched a missile at near point blank range. Perhaps in a more rational state of mind she would have known what a bad idea this was, but consumed by her battle fury all she could think about was killing the Autobot.

The Decepticon warrior didn’t even see if her missile hit Hardhead or even damaged him. She was quickly caught in the explosion and hurled away from him. She transformed in mid-air and slammed into the ground, bouncing like a rock skipping across water. Hellion came to race, her body badly damaged, leaking from numerous rips and cuts. Her right side was badly mangled. Half of her face was torn off and melted, while her right arm was completely ripped away, leaving only sparking wires and cables on her shoulder. Her right leg now ended at the knee. Her left side, while also damaged, was still functional.

Using her left arm the warrior pulled herself up to look at the site of her attack. Hellion’s right optic blinked off and on as she tried to see what damaged she had wrought. Unable to see clearly she let out a garbled growl. With only her left arm she began dragging herself back towards the fight. “Klllll, ki-, ki- killlll” came from her damaged vocalizer.

*

(OOC: This battle was agreed upon ahead of time by the participants)

Ironhide watched carefully as his opponent pulled himself back together. He wasn’t bright, few Cons were, but he was fairly tough. It looked like he might have a bit more of a fight on his hands then he had first imagined. That was fine with him, he was tired of trying to taunt one of the fliers to come down and give him a decent fight.

He let out a grunt as one of Contemptor’s blasts hit him on the chest. It was definitely going to leave a mark, but at least he was coming for some more up close and personal combat. Ironhide braced himself to fight off the charging Con when Skywarp opened fire on his back. Ironhide hiss in pain as the blasts struck him, cursing himself for forgetting about the teleporter. He paid for the mistake dearly when Contemptor brought his ax down on his right shoulder. With a flash of pain and a clunk of metal hitting the ground his right arm was severed.

Between the two attacks Ironhide was reeling. He fell backwards, landing hard on the ground. He knew he was in a bad spot and so he moved quickly. With his left arm he switched out to his chemical emitter. He fired a jet of liquid nitrogen at Contemptor’s ax wielding arm, followed by another kick at his knees. It was enough to bring him down and give him a vital second to get back on his feet.

Not really having much time to spare with Skywarp still on the prowl he scooped up his right arm. He didn’t like running from a fight, but despite what he might tell other Bots he wasn’t sure if he could take on two Cons with only one arm. Still, he wasn’t about to leave things as they were. Lifting his right foot he stopped on Contemptor’s frozen arm hard. He was rewarded with the sound of cracking and crunching metal. “Now we’re even punk,” he spat out to the Decepticon before running back to where the others were, still wary of another attack by Skywarp.

>>”Ratchet, what’s yer status? I’ve got some injuries here yer probably gonna have to look at.”<<

*

Slipstream almost sighed with relief when the retreat order was called for. This truly wasn’t her kind of mission. She was definitely going to have to get close to whoever ended up in command to make sure her skills weren’t wasted on missions like this. This was far better suited to the dumber but stronger Decepticons. After all, they were built to take the lasers for the smarter, more sophisticated Decepticons like herself.

The Decepticon transformed and rocketed into the air. She flew to where they had stashed the fuel supply. She would wait there for the rest of them since she was far from capable of taking the heavy load on her own.

(OOC: The attack on Waspy was agreed upon with his player.)

Iranian Desert - Central Hub

Hardhead would have grinned audio receptor to audio receptor had he been in robot mode. Not only did two of his explosive shells hit Hellion in both her right arm and midsection, but a third one actually missed her and kept going until it finally struck Waspinator, who was a good distance away, attacking both Ratchet and Warpath. The green Insecticon was rocked by the explosion and sent to the ground in a smoldering heap of scrap metal. The berserker, however, was a different story all together as the seeker femme refused to go down even in her severely damaged state. She was clearly not thinking straight, but if the crazy and enraged ‘Con wanted to cause more harm to herself then Hardhead wouldn’t try and stop her.

Instead, he simply laughed at Hellion as she forced herself to transform into some resemblance of her jet mode before rocketing towards the war veteran in an erratic manner. The green warrior’s laughter quickly stopped as the berserker fired off a single missile at pointblank range. “Ah, slaggit,” was all that Hardhead could utter before the warhead struck his top-mounted cannon, effectively destroying it and causing a powerful explosion that propelled his Stryker vehicle mode into a seemingly endless tumble. He hadn’t seen what was happening to Hellion, but the veteran could only assume she was caught within her own blast as she was too close when the rocket detonated. It was irrelevant as the green mech had other things to be concerned about right now such as his own well being.

Hardhead finally crashed into the side of a building, ceasing his uncontrollable tumble. He came to rest on his damaged roof as concrete and brick rained down around him. "Arrgh...that hurt,” the soldier muttered in pain as he forced himself to transform back into robot mode. Thankfully, the majority of the damage he had sustained was to his 120mm cannon which had been completely obliterated, leaving a gaping hole in the armor plating on his back. Unfortunately, the stubborn Autobot was now even more vulnerable to attack from behind than the prior breaches he had suffered, but it was something he would deal with when the time came. The rest of his armor was badly scorched across his entire body with bits of shrapnel embedded here and there. Overall, the war veteran was intact, but his energon levels had dropped considerably. He would need repairs soon or risk falling into stasis lock.

Pulling himself out of the rubble, a battered Hardhead managed to stand straight and survey his surroundings. It appeared as though the Decepticons were beginning to retreat and take their stolen energon with them. That suited him just fine as he was now weaponless and only had his fists to use against the enemy. Normally, that wouldn’t be much of a problem for him as he was very strong. But, considering the damage he had already sustained, even a weaker adversary would have a decent advantage over him.

Hardhead then spotted a hurting Ironhide running towards the other ‘Bots, carrying his severed right arm with him. Thinking only of his friend, the green mech hurried over to the security chief as quickly as he could, placing his bulk between the red Autobot and any follow-up attack from either Contemptor or Skywarp. “I’ve got you covered, ‘Hide! Unfortunately, I’ve lost all of my weapons, but those 'Cons still have to shoot through me to get to you!”

*********

Skywarp was pleased with himself as his shots struck Ironhide in the back moments after one of Contemptor’s blasts hit the red Autobot in the chest plate. The teleporter’s optics widened at the sight of the big Decepticon’s axe slicing straight through the security chief’s right arm, leaving it a useless limb lying on the ground. It was then that ‘Warp received the order from Starscream for everyone to secure the gathered fuel and retreat from the battlefield. That communiqué was followed up a few astroseconds later by a suggestion from Dirge for the teleporter to pick two other seekers and head for the energon they had previously siphoned from the oil pipeline. Starscream agreed and wanted it ready for transport back to the Ultrax without delay.

>>”Copy that, Commander Starscream. I’m on my way now.”<<

Cutting his comm line, Skywarp looked once again at the fight between Ironhide and Contemptor, the latter of which was now down with a damaged arm, as well. However, the red Autobot had decided to cut his losses and retreat while he still functioned. ‘Warp was about to fire one last parting shot after him when Hardhead suddenly came into view to block his attack. It was no matter. The prankster had his orders and the battle was all but over now.

Knowing that Contemptor would be fine on his own, Skywarp launched himself into the air and transformed into his F-22 Raptor mode before heading towards the outskirts of the Central Hub. His damaged wing tip made flying a bit difficult, but it was nothing he couldn’t handle. ‘Warp opened a new comm link with two of his seeker brethren, one of which had mysteriously disappeared from the battle early on:

>>”Thrust, Ramjet, stop whatever you are doing and meet me back at the train car ASAP. We need to secure the energon within it for transport per Starscream’s orders.“<<

Once the message was sent, Skywarp continued on towards the box car’s location. As he flew, he passed over the spot where Nightraven’s stasis locked form had once been before Dirge had collected it. The teleporter had hoped to bring her home, himself, but at least she was safe and would soon be recovering in a CR chamber back on board the Ultrax. He had to keep his processor focused on the task at hand, however, and not worry too much about the fallen femme. His feelings were strong for her, but he could not let them deter him from fulfilling his orders. ‘Warp was still an elite seeker, after all, and he needed to continue to act like one.

Motto: "Scream....it only make it more fun"
Weapon: Plasma Cannon
Iranian Desert - Central Hub

Contemptor had timed his shots just right before charging at Ironhide as the main bulk of the plasma blasts hit home on Ironhide's torso. It was apparent to the trophy hunter how his opponent was given his name as the plasma burst hit the autobot square in the chest and singed his armour, it also cracked some of the glass from his alt mode. Contemptor was stumped as to why there wasn't a gaping crated where Ironhide's chestplate should be. Using his onboard diagnostics, Contemptor found that, in the tussel when he was thrown into the wall of the ruined building, the coolant casing was cracked and the plasma cooling gel had leaked out over the conductor coils.

'Ah... that explains it i suppose' Contemptor thought as he charged forwards, swinging the axe up ready to strike down the Autobot veteran 'Still, it's a let down..I won't allow it...' Contemptor's thoughts turned into an open shout as he saw Ironhide stumble forwards, Skywarp firing at the rear.

Contemptor took his chance and swung down hard, the blade of his axe sparking into life as le let loose a cry of proclimation

"Glory for the Decepticons!"

There was a biting sensation and the feeling of contact as Contempors good optic glowed with malice as his axe cut down through Ironhide's shoulder. There was a tearing of metal as the main socket on Ironhide's shoulder was torn off from Contemptor's axe swipe. The large decepticon smiled in satisfaction as he towered over Ironhide, but his satisfaction was short lived.

In swinging his axe down, Contemptor had overextended his reach, leaving his already damaged knee exposed. He snapped his head to the left to glare angrily at Ironhide, not knowing his folly and his good optic suddenly flared in anger and agony as the veteran autobot's heel stomped his already mangled knee. There was a sweeping motion and Contemptor landed hard with a thud in the sand, his axe sent into the sand as he lost his grip.

Contemptor let out a snarl of disgust as he reached for his Plasma Pistol. But as he did so, there was a chill pain shooting up his left arm. It was a deep needling sensation as the super cooling fluid from Ironhide coated his left arm fully, freezing it down at the molecular level - and deep into Contemptor's skeletal structure.

"You'll pay Ironhide...I'll take your hea..." Contemptor let out a growl of pain as he felt his arm shatter under the impact of Ironhide's foot into his elbow joint as the frozen metal cracked and shattered under the stomp of Ironhide's heel.

"GRaaaaghhh!!!" was the sound from Contemptor's vocalizer as he rolled to the right and up to a kneeling position, a look of utter hate and anger crossing his faceplate as Ironhide turned and broke from combat, running back to his autobot brethren. Contemptor took his hand away from the shattered stump of his elbow and pulled his plasma pistol and proceeded to fire numerous shots - all of which missed their mark due to the range from his position to that of the running Ironhide - whom had been joined by the damaged Hardhead.

All Contemptor could do was spew forth a slew of earth and cybertronian curses at the feeling autobots. It was then that the communication came through from Starscream about aborting the mission and returning to the Ultrax, and as this made Contemptors mood even more violent, the sight of Skywarp taking off caused Contemptor to contact the prankster and curse at him in his audio receptor.

"Fragging Bastard Son of a Glitch!"

It wasn't Skywarp's fault, but as injured as Contemptor was - he knew that leaving any behind was the last thing needed. He opened a channel to the prankster.

"Sorry Skywarp...I hope your friend is ok...I'll collect Hellion and meet you on the Ultrax - possibly the repair bay..."

Contemptor cut the communication and sent a transmission to Starscream

"Acknowledged Commander Starscream...I will retreive Hellion and then be ready for bounce."

Again, he cut the transmission and glared off into the distance, his one good optic glowing in the setting sun.

"Trust me Ironhide...when the time comes, I will take your head as a trophy. By the nine hells i will not stop untill I do!"

Ratchet let out a sigh of relief when he heard Warpath let him know that he could hear him. That meant that he was still fully functional, he may ne be in one piece, but he was functioning. The CMO made his way out from his secure location and move toward the rubble where he had seen Warpath last. He hesitated slightly when he saw some movement, but relaxed when he realized it was the tank-former.

“Glad you’re okay, Warpath…”

He trailed off slightly when he noticed that the cannon that once protruded from his chest was now gone. The red mech made little to no optic contact with the medic, causing a wave of concern to wash over the CMO.

“I’ll get you back in one piece as soon as I can.”

Ratchet forced a smile before he laid his hand on Warpath’s shoulder. It was then that Ratchet heard the annoying vocalizations of that Insecticon. Ratchet pulled Warpath out of the line of fire from his stingers only to be surprised by Waspinator’s sudden explosion. Ratchet on-lined and off-lined his optics as he stared at the molten mess left in front of him. Lifting his head he noticed Hardhead battling that crazed berserker femme Seeker.

Ratchet nearly jumped when his comm link came to life with Ironhide’s voice. Scrambling to regain his composure the medic began pulling Warpath along as he responded to the mission commander.

>>”I’m alright. I’ve got Warpath with me, but he’s in bad shape. I can take a look at your injuries as soon as I can find a secure location. Meet me at these coordinates.”<<

He had scanned the area and found one that was nowhere near any of the ‘Cons making it possibly the best location to evaluate his patients.

Somewhere at the Bottom of the Persian Gulf

Thrust began finally stir from the shock emergency lock up his systems had went through after breaching the ocean surface roughly at mach 5 and hitting the bottom of the gulf in the relatively shallow waters where he had wounded up to.

His diagnostic subroutines were giving rather disheartening status updates thorough his frame. His form was badly mangled and the damage he had gone through in response to his wing being obliterated by a blast by Hardhead was preventing him from transforming. His communications equipment were also malfunctioning. So badly in fact that he never received the transmission from Skywarp.

Unable to move or contact the other Decepticons, Thrust activated his emergency beacon, hoping that the others would take notice of it eventually. Still, he knew far too well that he would not be the first casualty of a battle to be left behind to rust away. Having lost his sense of time anyhow, Thrust fell to energy saving mode, only keeping the emergency beacon on sporadically.

Central Hub - Why are seekers so stubborn?

>"...This is Contemptor...I am in the process of retreiving Hellion. I have sustained some...minor damage."< Contemptor looked down at the shattered remnant of his left arm as he spoke into his tranceiver, and he grimaced as he absently touched his upper arm strut. He was deffinatly sour over the previous encounter.

Contemptor had sent his transmission to Vindicator on the Ultrax. He didn't know that the Siege Commander was aboard the Ultrax, so it came as a surprise when the baritone vocals rattled around his cranial unit that his only close friend was in orbit watching what was happening in the desert. His surprise was even more lengthened when the growled reply jolted him into action.

Contemptor turned and made his way towards Hellion - her energon signal was faint, but showing that she was still functioning. Contemptor wondered if she had gone into stasis lock, but it would not be foolish to expect the battle with the Autobot Hardhead to be an easy task.

Contemptor tried again to contact the femme as he approached at a purposeful stride.

>"Hellion...Hellion this is Contemptor do you acknowledge?.....Hellion respond!"<

If anyone would have questioned Contemptor in his feelings, the faint tremor in his vocalizer when he contacted the berzerker would have gave away his usual calm and cold exterior.

'Dammit seeker.. answer me!' Contemptor snarled under his breath as the form of Hellion came into view in the distance.

Above the Combat Zone

Starscream was banking around after he had dropped his cluster bombs when the transmission came in from the Ultrax, but not from Soundwave as he had expected, but from Vindicator. He barely recalled so-called siege commander's name on the roster for the Decepticons he had under his command, but if this unknown was taking charge on the Ultrax that meant Soundwave was no longer on the ship. And with Shockwave now in the system the Commander knew exactly where he was, and this only confirmed what Starscream had already suspected. The Seeker noted the locations for Hellion and Contemptor and broadcasted the coordinates to the Ultrax so they could be bounced up to the ships.

>>Vindicator, Starscream. Most of the ground team are with the energon they have secured, I have also marked the locations for the other members of the team not in the zone. You should be able to bounce us all back to the Ultrax, and do so ASAP. We have a number of wounded that need immediate attention.<<

After he cut the transmission Starscream flew low to the ground and transformed back into his robot form and waited to be bounced back up to the ship.

As the sounds of battle continued around him, Warpath was in another world. With his turret cannon now in several pieces scattered amongst the rubble, the normally loud and upbeat warrior was almost completely dispondent. Though Ratchet assured the crimson warrior that he would be back in one piece, it did little to raise Warpath's spirits.

"Yeah, sure doc." Warpath mumbled, still looking away from Ratchet, who did all he could to physically pull the tankbot despite Warpath's unwillingness.

You'll put me back into one piece, but it won't be the same will it? I've seen and heard enough. Everyone said my cannon was always getting in the way and knocking things over, or blocking things. You're just gonna fix me up and leave me without a new one, probably stick me with some flimsy gun. Maybe it did get in the way sometimes, but it was MY cannon, and it's who I am!

Warpath then overheard the Autobot CMO contact Ironhide. It sounded like they were going to regroup, something that Warpath now dreaded.

No, I can't let them see me like this!

Iranian Desert - Several Miles from the Central Hub

Skywarp leveled off and descended towards the sand dunes below, one of which partial concealed the train car containing the bulk of the energon they had procured during the mission. Transforming in midair, ‘Warp ignited his foot thrusters and used them to blow away most of the sand that covered the large container. Once that had been completed, the teleporter landed on top of the box car and removed the camouflaged netting that covered the rest just as he received Thrust’s emergency beacon indicating that he had crashed. Apparently, it would just be Ramjet to provide any form of assistance, but even the power-hungry conehead was still no where to be seen. “Figures. I can’t count on anyone for help around here,” the prankster muttered to himself as a frown became etched across his faceplate.

Astroseconds later, Skywarp received a message from Vindicator on board the Ultrax. Without assistance from his fellow Seekers, the teleporter would be unable to reach any designated bounce extraction point. Teleporting was not an option, either, due to the large size of the train car and the highly volatile contents therein. No, 'Warp would not risk destroying not only himself but the energon stockpile they had worked so hard to gather from the pipeline. Vindicator would simply have to bounce him and the cubes from their current location, leaving the box car behind. The black and purple seeker opened a secured comm line back up the the Ultrax:

>>”Vindicator, this is Skywarp. I am unable to reach any bounce extraction point. You will have to bounce me and the energon cubes I have here from my present coordinates.”<<

Slingshot weaved back into the rapidly expanding clouds of smoke and rock. He cut back his engines to the minutest amount in order to allow his snap half S turn to bring him back into the dust and billowing debris. Two bursts of laser fire slammed across his aileron tearing off a large chunk and causing him to spin down towards the deck.

He cried out in pain as his systems desperately tried to compensate for the damage. "Damn fragging standard model." The Aerialbot sniper flipped himself over and dove deep into the dust cover, rocks pelting his form but causing little damage in compared to the smoke trail his wing was emitting. Ramjet would pay for that.

Angling his sensors back to trace the source of the laser fire, Slingshot pulled back on his damaged ailerons and leveled himself off. He knew he could not last too long before he required servicing or at least was forced to the ground. Loading several chains of mortars into his cannons. Without a clear target except for projected course corrections and angles for Ramjet's possible escape routes, Slingshot fired. "YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!"

Iranian Desert - Central Hub

Hellion continued to crawl through the sand as she saw the various Transformers running around in the distance. She couldn’t make out who was who, but she knew that there were Autobots out there, and she needed to kill them. The seeker continued to drag herself forward with her good arm, clawing at the ground to drag herself a few more feet.

Then the signals came in calling for a retreat and an end to the battle. “Nooooo” came out of her vocalizer as a rough whisper. She said it again , louder this time, then a scream. “NOOOOOO!” She slammed her fist on the ground in frustration as another battle had ended with her enemies surviving.

The berserker finally began coming down from her rage as she received a signal from Contemptor. With most of her fuel having been spilled or burnt out of her, she had only enough energy left to turn on her locator beacon before falling into stasis lock.

*

Ironhide simply nodded at Hardhead as he jogged past him. He didn’t really like someone else trying to play the bodyguard act on him but he didn’t have the time to argue now. They needed to get everyone back together and regroup, get wounds patched up and ready for the next round of fighting.

He stopped in his tracks when he heard the sound of jet engines roaring. He turned around to see Skywarp rocketing away. Contemptor was rolling around on the ground and didn’t look to be attacking anyone soon. It looked like the battle was over and the Cons were getting out while the getting was good. Ironhide grunted. It wasn’t exactly a victory but he felt they had at least given as good as they got.

>>"Affirmative on that Ratchet, I'll get everyone else to meet us over there."<<

>>”Autobots, meet up at the provided coordinates. Looks like the fight is over so we need to get together, gather the wounded and head home.”<<

Ironhide pressed his remaining hand against the stump on his shoulder. He was leaking out some fluids despite doing his best to cut off the flow to his shoulder internally. He could keep going for a while longer though, it just stung like the pit. He glaced at his severed arm tucked under his good arm. It looked like a pretty clean cut, hopefully a quick fix. He walked over towards Ratchet and waited for the others to join him.

Iranian Desert - Several Miles from the Central Hub

Slipstream transformed and landed in front of Skywarp. She had been circling high overhead, the other seeker had slipped down below her and landed. She grunted a bit as she landed, the shrapnel from the near miss fired by Warpath still stinging. The damage wasn’t as bad as she let on though. She just wanted to make sure that her sudden withdrawal from battle was completely justified. She wasn’t about to go above and beyond the call of duty on some phony distraction mission.

“Commander Skywarp, I’m glad to see you intact. I assume you have already requested a bounce back to the ship?”

OoC:I thought of this with Ramjet and Waspinator. ;) Dunno if I am allowed to do this, but Waspinator's destruction needed a little more humor. ;) But don't worry, it won't last long.

Central Hub

Ramjet was flying with fierceness, then he heard a horrid scream. He knew who it was; it was that idiot Waspinator.

>>You okay my buzzing friend?<< Ramjet asked through a comm link with Waspinator.

>>Not aga-zzrrrrrk-aain...<< Waspinator responded, then nothing but static.

If Ramjet were in the position to, he would have facepalmed at the message. But unfortunately, he wasn't and he was needed elsewhere.

He kicked in the airbrakes and narrowly missed a string of mortars from the annoying pest Slingshot. His anger built up slowly, it was urking him that he couldn't finish the battle and Starscream ordering the retreat made him even more angry.

The camel's back was about to break. Soon.

"Hey, I gotta go! This isn't over!" Ramjet called out to Slingshot as he turned back and kicked in his afterburners.

He flew over to near Waspinator's last known location, it was near a damaged Warpath and Ratchet. He flew dawn low and transformed in the front of what was left of a supply bunker, and walked in. He rummaged around the crates and found a net that was covering some of the crates to hold them to a wooden base. He yanked it off and tied the tops together, but leaving one end open to put the form of Waspinator in.

He slung the net over his shoulder and jogged over to what was left of Waspinator, then picked up an arm of the lowly Insecticon and put it into the netting as fast as he could. He did the same with some of the other body parts, then shoved the torso into the netting.

He accidentally clunked Waspinator's head and it sprung to life, somehow.

"What? Whatzz going on?? Why can't Wazzpinator zzee!?" Waspinator said as Ramjet slung the netting over his shoulder.

"How are you still online? You should be deactivated." Ramjet stated as he began to jog through the battle and toward Skywarp.

"Truzzt Wazzpinator, Wazzpinator go through more than thizz." He said, voice bouncing as the net was flinging on his back, for it wasn't tied down too much.

Waspinator was losing a lot of Energon, he would have to make this quick.

He slid behind a building and rested his back against the wall, he would need a recharge later.

>>Skywarp, I've got Waspinator here with me, I'm coming as fast as I can on foot.<< Ramjet said as he put his weight on the wall.

Waspinator's protests were too muffled to hear.

Hardhead didn’t need coordinates to find his way to the meeting place. He simply followed Ironhide to their designated rendezvous point. The danger from a Decepticon follow-up attack had waned as the seekers continued their retreat from the area. There had been no clear winner here as both sides had suffered losses. Although, one could argue that the side which retreated first was the loser. Unfortunately, the ‘Cons had also apparently gotten away with at least some amount of energon, but it was unclear as to just how much. Regardless, the enemy had succeeded in their main objective and that didn’t sit very well with the green warrior. At least it wasn’t the Autobots who were retreating as the stubborn mech would have scoffed at the notion and kept on fighting until the bitter end even if it meant disobeying orders. Thankfully, it didn’t come to that.

Hardhead reached the rendezvous point at about the same time as Ironhide. The war veteran looked over to his one-armed field commander and nodded. “That looks like it hurts, ‘Hide,” the green warrior said as he focused in on his friend’s severed arm. “Although, I guess it’s better than losing your head, right? Heh heh!” Hardhead couldn’t resist poking a little fun at himself, considering the lose of his cranial unit in a prior battle. Hopefully, it would liven the overall mood a bit, but he wasn’t expecting too much.

Iranian Desert - Several Miles from the Central Hub

Skywarp watched as Slipstream circled overhead before landing beside him on top of the train car. The femme was another seeker who had abruptly withdrawn from the battle, but at least she had signs of damage to her frame, even if it didn’t appear to be too serious. It mattered little to ‘Warp as the saboteur was one of the few on this mission that didn’t give him a hard time and had actually showed him some degree of respect. Even now she still referred to him as “Commander”, a title that didn’t seem to go with his name and probably never would again.

“There’s no need to call me that anymore, Slipstream,” Skywarp replied sheepishly to his fellow teleporter. “I'm afraid I stopped being the commander of this mission the moment Starscream arrived. And, yes, I've already contacted Vindicator on board the Ultrax and told him that he'll have to bounce the energon and myself from this location.” The prankster then received Ramjet’s communication and quickly opened a channel back to the white conehead:

>>”Understood, Ramjet. However, there’s no rush to get here as Vindicator will be bouncing us all back to the ship within one breem. So, just sit tight wherever you are.”<<

Iranian Desert - Going home

Contemptor looked at the prone form of Hellion, and the mess of the dust and grit around her damaged form, fluids from her internal systems had turned the sand into a dark mire of mud and slush. Over time the desert would reclaim itself and all traces of spilled Cybertronian body fluids would be obliterated by the winds and the sun. Contemptor however, didn't care about that at the moment, for all he cared about was getting Hellion back to the damned Ultrax and getting himself a new arm.

'Grr....time to pick you up and take you home seeker...' Contemptor grumbled to himself as he began to retreive his energon axe before getting to Hellion. The only thing that bothered him was his left knee, as the scuffle with Ironhide had left him with a limp that was irritating to the point of frustration. If Contemptor were a human, his knee would have been dislocated and have required surgery to repair it. But as it was, he was more than a measly human, and easier to repair and, therefor, superior.

Contemptor looked down at Hellion and, with his damaged knee, gingerly crouched down and wrapped his arm around the bezerker's waist - and being a femme, her structure allowed Contemptor's arm to hook her before lifting her up over his shoulder. The injury to his knee hindered his movements, and after he stood with the stasis-locked seeker slumped over his shoulder, he removed his arm to press the transmitter switch on his chest. The large shoulder plates that helped form up the front engine housing of his alternate mode helped keep the femme in place so that Contemptor could accept the bounce signal back to the Ultrax.

"Well kid..." Contemptor said to Hellion "...we're goin' home..."

There was a faint buzzing in the air around the large truck-former as a shaft of light slowly got brighter and brighter, and when it was at its brightest, where once the large decepticon stood, there was nothing but a set of large foot prints that was slowly being filled in by the soft blowing desert winds.

Iranian Desert – Autobot Rendezvous Point

It hadn’t taken long for Ratchet to make it to the coordinates that he provided Ironhide. The CMO scouted the area before he settled down and removed his medical kit. It wouldn’t be long before the other would arrive and he’d be elbow deep in energon and mangled parts. Ratchet took a look around and spotted Warpath who had been following him to the location.

The CMO was no psychiatrist, but the tankformer looked as though he needed someone to talk to. Ratchet’s optics narrowed as he picked up one of his wrenches and threw it directly at Warpath’s head.

Warpath! Quit your moping! Losing that damned gun is not going to terminate you, but if you keep this crap up I sure as hell will!”

Once he was done reprimanding the tankformer, Ratchet opened up a link with Ironhide, who still hadn’t shown up.

>>”Red! Where the hell are ya? I’m gonna contact the Guardian and give them our location so they can bounce us back, but I wannna get everyone patched up beforehand. Get here as soon as you can.”<<

That done Ratchet opened a link with the Guardian.

>>”Guardian, this is Ratchet. I’m sending you the coordinates the Iranian team will be located at for a bounce pick up. DO NOT initiate until I contact you again. Out.”<<

Iranian Desert – Autobot Rendezvous Point

As far as Warpath was concerned, he wasn't in Iran, or even on Earth. Right now he was in his own personal hell. Something he felt important that had made him an effective warrior, something that made him unique compared to the other Autobots, was gone. Any replacement Ratchet would put there, if he even did replace it, would be different. Warpath hated the thought.

"OW!" the tankformer shouted in surprise as he felt something hard hit his head.

The warrior looked around expecting to see one of the Decepticons making some half-aft, last minute attack as they left- probably that lame insecticon, Waspinator wanting to say he got the last shot in. When he realized there were no Decepticons around Warpath looked down to see what it was that hit him. He then noticed one of Ratchet's wrenches on the ground, and picked it up. He finally looked over at the CMO, who gave him a good chewing out. Warpath limped over to the medic, handing the wrench back to him.

"Sorry, Ratchet.", Warpath apologized, "I'll try to pull myself back together.... so to speak, heh."

Though he still wasn't his loud, boisterous, usual self, Warpath was at least trying to get himself back up. It wouldn't be easy, though.

Oh, my poor, poor gun....
