“No, Snarl, we don’t get to squish humans,” Grimlock replied to the Desert Warrior. “Humans even more pathetic and weak than Autobots. No fun to squish. Decepticons better adversary. We smash them, instead!”

Swoop wrote:"Usually can see things better up close. Probably true for sensors too. This battleship have multiple, deployable vehicles. Can ready shuttle for departure."

“Good, do it!” The Dinobot Commander ordered the bombardier in no uncertain terms. “Ready shuttle in Hangar Bay Alpha. No delays, Swoop!”

Grimlock then turned to the rest of his team. "Dinobots, make way to Alpha Hangar. We depart in three breems. With any luck, we find ‘Cons to smash soon after. Let’s go!” Wasting no further time, the rex-former took the lead and made his way off the bridge and into the corridor beyond.

Sludge stand from seat on bridge, look to Snarl, Slag, Swoop and Grimlock one by one, then start walk to Alpha Hangar. “Okay,” said Sludge. Small word, small sentence, save time. Sludge first of leaving bridge but walk slow for Slag and Snarl to catch. “Africa strange land? Trail go new fun place maybe. That be nice.”

“Good, do it! Ready shuttle in Hangar Bay Alpha. No delays, Swoop!”

"No delays!" Swoop confirmed. With only a slight move of his hand, the ship intuitively brought up a list of available vehicles stored within the various hangars. Swoop selected the largest shuttle in the alpha hangar and remotely readied it for launch.

He would barely have to sit down in the cockpit before the shuttle would carry them down to their next destination.

With that handled, Swoop got up from his console and quickly followed after the others.

“Africa strange land? Trail go new fun place maybe. That be nice.”

"Very nice, I think," Swoop agreed. "If trail lead to 'Cons--lots of fun."

Alpha Hangar – Shuttle

Grimlock and the Dinobots strode into the hangar bay and immediately made their way towards the shuttle which was already powering up for their impending trip to the surface of Sol-3. The rex-former interlaced his actuators and cracked his knuckles in anticipation of some much-needed action. That trail would lead them to the Decepticons, or at least to a group of them. It had to. Grimlock needed to smash some ‘Con head-plates in. Furthermore, he needed to show Autobot Command that taking a proactive stance would help win the war faster than just sitting around in a defensive posture and waiting to be attacked. That would simply not do anymore.

The Dinobot Commander quickly ascended the entrance ramp and entered the shuttle's cockpit where he took a seat in the co-pilot’s chair. Once the bombardier had arrived, Grimlock turned to address him. “Swoop, once everyone on board take us out and follow that trail. No waste time!”

Grimlock then looked ahead through the cockpit’s windshield and saw that the hangar bay doors were already sliding open automatically in preparation for the shuttle’s launch. Only a force field kept the air from rushing out into the vacuum of space. The Trion was such an advanced ship that it could almost think and operate on its own. The rex-former glanced back over his massive shoulder plate as the rest of the Dinobots entered the shuttle and took their seats in the passenger cabin. Soon, very soon, they would be on their way to crushing Decepticons!
