Shockwave’s Tower – Main Lab
As the Predacons waited for the others to arrive, Razorclaw had sent Divebomb down to retrieve the necessary surveillance equipment they would need for the mission from the storage room on Level 3. The flying mech was the only one of the group Razorclaw trusted to secure the correct devices without breaking anything. This was also ironic, considering that Divebomb was the most anti-social of the Predacons and would rather build nests then spend time with his teammates.
Swindle then entered the lab and presented himself to the Predacon Commander.
“No problems, Swindle,” Razorclaw responded plainly. “Just join the rest of the team. Divebomb will be back shortly with the supplies we’ll need.” As if arriving on cue, Divebomb appeared through the main doors with a hover cart full of surveillance devices. The aerial Predacon moved the cart to the center of the lab before rejoining the others that were gathered.
Razorclaw looked around and saw that his team was now assembled with the exception of Weirdwolf. So be it, he thought. There was no more time to waste waiting for lower mechs to get their afts in gear. There was a job to be done and Shockwave would surely accept no excuses for why it wasn’t done in a timely manner.
“Okay team, listen up!” Razorclaw began as he looked at the Predacons and Swindle. “Shockwave has given us a mission of upmost importance.” The Predacon Leader approached a nearby computer console and punched in a few keys, bringing up a holographic map of the surrounding area. “We are to scout the neighboring sectors and set up a surveillance grid within the perimeter of 80 megamiles around this tower. Now, this is a lot of area to cover, so we will split up into three teams of two mechs each in order to complete the task quickly. Divebomb, you and I will take Sectors 1 and 2. Tantrum and Swindle, you two handle Sectors 3 and 4. Finally, Headstrong and Rampage, you both will tackle Sectors 5 and 6. I want each pair to work together as a team in order to get this mission done efficiently. No squabbling!”
Razorclaw pointed to each sector on the map as he spoke, making sure they all knew where their designated territories were located. “Divebomb has already brought up all the appropriate surveillance equipment we’ll need for the mission. There are numerous motion sensors, video cameras and various listening devices that need to be placed throughout each sector. Be sure to take enough equipment with you in order to cover your assigned areas sufficiently. Remember to activate each sensor or device as you place them. Otherwise, they won’t be connected to the grid. Once done, we’ll all meet back here at the tower where I’ll sync everything together and bring the overall surveillance grid online.”
The head Predacon paused a moment, allowing what he had just said to sink in, before continuing. “Additionally, if you happen to encounter any surviving life forms out there, such as cyber-rats and the like, try to capture some for Shockwave’s research, alive if possible. Are there any questions?”
Razorclaw looked around the room at his Predacons and Swindle. “If there are no questions, then pair up, grab what you need from the hover cart and make your way to your assigned sectors.”
