Decepticon Outpost Tau - Power generator
Where other transformers would have seen a mess of twisted wreckage and molten metal, Scrapper saw what once had been a fully operational and actually rather well-designed set of power generators. Gazing through the hole in the cieling left by the attack, Scrapper reconstructed the events of the battle just as he had mentally reassembled the shattered machinery.
It seems the primary damage was a set of planted explosives to knock them out: obviously sabotage. The damage wasn't as severe as it was targetted well. Then there seem to have been partial repairs made..., he noted as he stepped over the remains of a fallen repairbot who had stayed in the room too long, only for one of our heavies to blast through the wall and 2 side rooms to slag half the generators.
They really should have built it underground.
Moving downstairs to the secondary generators, Scrapper found a much prettier sight, even as he noted the laser scars and shrapnel that covered the room. The primary rooms pretty much slagged, it'd been to be basically redone from scratch, but these are lightly damaged and we can get them online in a matter of breems if we get on it.
Scrapper stood up from the power relay he'd inspected, and flipped up his radio screen.
Outside
Mixmaster looked at Triggerhappy, then up at Hook with a placid gesture. "Well, I'd assume that we'd, we'd, just leave him here and go about our business, our work. He'll have learned his lesson, won't mess with us again, will respect us in future. I'd assume."
"Slag that!!", Bonecrusher interjected. "If this wingnut is dumb enough to mess with us once, he's dumb enough to do it again. I say we mix him in with the 'crete and make him part'o the wall."
At this point Scrapper's message tunes in through Hooks radio. >>Constructicons, we have our first assignment. Meet me in the power generators: You can get to them directly through the medium-sized hole just underneath the ruined radio tower. We shouldn't need Bonecrusher, he can help Long Haul and Scavenger with supply procurement.<<
