Thanks!)Shockwave's Tower - ArmoryA communique from the Decepticon in charge of Polyhex reached all the warriors preparing for battle in the Tower's Armory.
Shockwave wrote:Proceed immediately to the Hangar Bay. We depart now.
Of course, the military coordinator would brook no lagging and dragging of feet.
Shockwave's Tower - Main HangarAs
Cyclonus and the Sweeps launched from the Hangar,
Dunehopper clenched an angry fist at them and shook it at their departure.
I can't wait to tear up those punks! Starscream says we've gotta be patient, though...so I guess I'll do what the boss says! In an attempt to look like a good soldier, the golden Seeker transformed into his tetrajet mode and hovered a few meters off the floor, awaiting the official order from Starscream to move out. Cyclonus had told everyone to launch, but as far as Dunehopper was concerned, Starscream was in charge, not the purple petrorabbit-headed guy.
Meanwhile,
Shockwave had arrived via one of the lifts at the rear of the cavernous bay. He heard
Astrotrain's broadcast over a general comm channel, and as he passed the transport-specialist Decepticon, he paused for a moment to speak to him.
"Negative, Astrotrain. You will proceed to Kolkular and retrieve the
Constructicons, then ferry them to the Tagan Heights." His single optic moved to
Triggerhappy. "Triggerhappy, you will escort Astrotrain. Depart immediately."
The towering military coordinator strode to the mouth of the Hangar Bay just as Cyclonus,
Sixshot, and the Sweeps exited. He looked at the remaining flying Decepticons assembled there.
"Join the Sweeps, Starscream.
Onslaught's strike force will follow."
Bending his knees slightly before leaping into the air and transforming into his huge ray-gun mode, Shockwave hovered as he waited for Onslaught's force to arrive in the Hangar.
This cycle...the Autobot Sentinel falls.
