Polyhex Line ~ The Breach
Recieving the question from Skywatch, Silverbolt took a short moment to come to his first command decision of the battle before giving his answer "We only withdraw when Commander Maximus gives the order Skywatch..." Silverbolt replied to the airspace control 'Bot "...Until then, send any and all available units to assist in holding the breach, I'm in position to begin my attack now, Silverbolt out"
With the battle below within range, Silverbolt's targeting systems locked onto the Decepticon forces below, marking the Terrorcons as priority one. "Fireflight, begin your run on the Decpeticon forces, target the Terrorcons, and be sure to avoid collateral damage as much as possible, go!" The Aerialbot Commander ordered, preparing himself for a follow up attack of his own.
Fireflight descended quickly, and when 2 more of his firefog missiles had clicked into position, the Aerialbot Scout pulled the trigger and the missiles ignited and sped off towards their target: Just behind the 2 Terrorcons Rippersnapper and Sinnertwin. On a slightly different attack path, Silverbolt lined up the other 2 Terrorcons, Cutthroat and Hun-Grrr, and let loose several electro static energy blasts in their direction.

Skies Over The Killzone
Air Raid had been silent for a while, partly due to the Autobot Communication Satellites being put out of commision, and partly due to the damage he'd recieved at the elbow of Quantum, culminating in him not being able to recieve or send out any messages through his commlink, or at least none that could reach Silverbolt. He had managed to avoid crashing after his encounter with Quantum, but it had left him distanced from the fighting.
As he came around once more, his bent nosecone leading the way, Air Raid's commlink started crakling into life, first with mostly static, but as he continued, something started to filter through the static, the sound of... laughter? Though difficult to hear, the laugh did sound somewhat familiar to the black Aerialbot, and the voice that broke through the laughter was definitely familiar.
"I like your new look 'Raid, it's definitely an improvement over before" The voice mocked, getting clearer as it appeared to get closer "Slingshot, you slagging waste of fuel!" Air Raid shouted back as his fellow Aerialbot flew up alongside him, looking a bit worse for wears himself after getting patched up from his earlier battles "Oh come now Air raid, it was a compliment, I meant it from the bottom of my spark" Slingshot replied, still trying to hold his laughter back, Air Raid chose to ignore the comment, knowing that now wasn't the time to get into one of his arguments with Slingshot.
"Whatever 'Shot, we've got more important things to be concerning ourselves with at the moment, those damn Seekers still have us outnumbered" Air Raid replied, trying to redirect their conversation back to the matter at hand "Like that matters.." Slingshot derisively replied "..We're the Aerialbots, we're the best, and I'm the best of the best, end of discussion. Now let's go show those 'Cons how to do it" The VTOL jet finished off, and even Air Raid couldn't really argue with what he said, well, maybe that bit about Slingshot being the best, but he thought he'd let it slide just this once.

The Killzone
While Orpheus hadn't hit his target with his 2 shots, it had at least forced Rampage onto the defensive, and more importantly, well out of close combat range. Predictably though, the young warrior was caught in the shockwave from the blast impact, and even though he tried to protect himself from any damage, from his slumped position on one knee, he was blown backwards onto his back, his leg trapped underneath him.
"Get up!!" A little voice screamed inside Orpheus "Don't give in" The voice continued, pushing him to slowly work his way back up to some kind of attacking position, pushing himself up to a sitting position, and then back to a kneeling position, freeing his trapped leg. Resting both arms on his knee, Orpheus looked over to where Rampage was laying after evading the attack. This fight had taken Orpheus further and deeper than he had ever been before, usually by now his physical advantages had already overwhelmed his opponent, but for the first time, he'd have to come up with another way of winning this fight.

Polyhex Line
"Charge in place!" A voice shouted "Ready to breach the door" Another followed, and all optics rested on Havok, waiting for his confirmation. The Corrupticon and his followers had broken away from the main melee battle to hunt down those Autobots who had seeked refuge in nearby Decepticon bunkers, and their first target was a locked bunker. Nodding his head, Havok gave the go ahead for his team to blow the door off the bunker "FIRE IN THE HOLE!!" One of the Mechs shouted has he detonated the explosives and blew a hole in the door, an action that was quickly followed by 2 ion grenades being thrown through the smoke into the bunker.
One of the young grunts went to dash in soon after, but was grabbed back by a large hand on his shoulder belonging to Havok "Follow me in" The Corrupticon ordered, the mech silently accepted the order and waited for the grey and purple mech to lead the way. The 4 Autobots that had taken refuge in the bunker had been rendered immobile by the 2 grenades, and they watched on in fear as 2 dark purple optics shone through the smoke and dust, bearing down on them. Valiant to the end, all 4 Autobot's opened fire on Havok, causing damage to the former gladiator's exterior armor, but ultimately, not enough to prevent him from entering the bunker.
Pulling his railgun out of subspace with his right hand, the Corrupticon took aim and put slugs through 2 of the Autobots heads, but missing with his 3rd shot. Annoyed with himself for missing what amounted to a stationary target, the dark grey Mech growled, before dropping his railgun to the ground and grabbing the Autobot he missed, lifting him off the floor of the bunker and proceeded to launch him headfirst through the front of the bunker, back out into the Killzone. Turning back to deal with the final 'Bot, Havok discovered his team had already taken care of that tiny problem for him and were standing around waiting for him, one of them holding the Corrupticon's railgun, amazed at the fact that Havok could shoot this with one arm.
Grabbing his gun and putting another clip into it, Havok returned it to subspace once more before marching out of the bunker, already on his way to the next Autobot graveyard.
