Vibro got up as the ship had arrived at the temple. Finally, after all the set backs they had, they have arrived. Looking around, he decided to send a brief transmission of the situation to everyone. Autobots that wants to ask questions, can do so during the trip. Vibro begins to send the transmission.
"Listen up autobots, judging by the ship readings, we are not alone right now. The decepticons are in the temple, but we must be extremely cautious. Getting to the temple won't be easy as from what Alpha Trion told me, the vault homes the original thetacons. Watch each other back and no one gets left behind. If we face an unknown enemy outside then we use whatever tactic to stop them. The fate of cybertron is in our hands folks. Lets not make the cons win this one."
*Sent* With the transmission sent, Vibro waited at the bridge to wait for the other autobots. This was it, the race for the allspark cube is about to commence.

Laser shook back to life, standing as his mighty gears shifted into place. He was deeply tired. It took a lot of energy to run a Guardian. And the current events were really starting to put a drain on him.
"Yes....yes well...A meeting then?" Laser rubbed his forehead, even the nanite shards stretching. "I need but a moment to recuperate. Inform the others, I shall join you soon enough."

"Yeeesh. Tough crowd here." Beam jumped up on a table and sighed. "Hellooo? Can we get pumped!?

Cutlass smiles at Beam. "Ha ha I'm always ready for the fight, and I'm glad to meet someone who's just as happy as me to be charging into battle." He resists the urge to hug the small fem.
Still grinning he looks over as Towreck offers him the gunblade. He stands up as he takes it. "Thanks." His optics nearly pop out of his head when he actually looks at the weapon. He talks to everyone around him. "Do you know who this belonged to?!" He inspects the weapon's hilt pointing at what most would have thought was only a decorative design. "This is the mark of my old Captain. I never thought I would see it again." He drops to his knees in disbelief. "There are legends surrounding this weapon. It's said to bring fortune and victory to whoever is chosen to wield it. This weapon was to be passed down to the next Captain, and is only to be held by the Captain. If this was found in Protihex then he must have been killed before he could give it to his successor. Who ever killed him broke the cycle, but by fate it's found it's way to me." He holds the weapon close to his chest almost hugging it. "If it really is fate that I should hold this weapon then we are assured victory in even this what is likely to be the most ferocious of battles."
Tecton rolls his eyes ignoring Cutlass and takes out a small screen checking over the ship's repairs. It was at least half way to getting the weapons system and the sensory array back online. Hopefully they will be able to gain more information on anyone or anything that's outside once it's repaired. The repairs to the sensors should be done by the time we finalize a plan. The hull damage however will take some time to repair so provided the defenses hold it should be fine for the drones to keep working while we fight, if there is indeed something out there waiting for us.

Silentsong watched and listened as Beam and Cutlass talked about the battle to come as if it were a good thing. Silentsong had seen bots die enough to know that a fight was not a thing that should be taken so lightly, but she said nothing to them. Silentsong knew that the only way to learn about how hard a battle can be is the hard way, and she hoped that Beam and Cutlass would not have to learn today. Silentsong listened as Cutlass excitedly told a legend, personally, Silentsong didn't believe in such stories, but it was stories like these that make those who do believe in such things have hope, and hope is a powerful weapon.
So, what's our plan?" Silentsong asked, knowing that they had to hurry if they were to catch up with the Decepticons. Silentsong hoped that whatever plan they could come up with would be good enough. In situations like these, Silentsong liked to utilize a certain saying, 'expect the worst, hope for the best'.

Towreck smiled and turned to Jumper, nodding his head. He walked over to the pile, and found a somewhat standard Energon Blaster. Towreck picked it up, and walked over to Jumper. "Here ya go, this one should do the trick. And as for cost, lets just say its an IOU, seeing as we don't really have much of a monetary system at the moment, since our government is sorta failing. Besides, this is a war, and I wouldn't feel right charging money to my teammates for weapons I found." Towreck explained, holding out the sidearm.

Vibro got up as the autobots were left in shambles. The way that they are talking sounds like their lost. The more time they waste, the less time they have a chance of getting the cube before the decepticons. Turning on his transmissions, he sends them to all the members of the autobot squad. Hopefully this time, they get the transmission.
"Listen up. We don't have much time so I'm going to say this once. Cutlass, put the ship to auto defense mode if it has one. I have a feeling that someone will attack the ship to cut off our transportation. Towreck, make sure that every weapon you have is available to the bots that need them. Now as for the vault, Laser I will need your knowledge on this temple since you been around since its existence. Also, Laser get spironok to guard Beam and Silentstrong when we get to the temple as they are the weakest link. With the ship uncomfirmed reading saying that there are hostiles, I am not taking any chances. Laser can you have Spironok do a recon around the area. Aegis will provide backup up in the sky. The faster we learn on what we're dealing with, the better. When we get to the temple, we will stick together, but to cover ground divide up into teams. Team Alpha will consist of: Laser, Watertight, Aegis and Tecton. Team Beta will be: Me, Jumper, Volca, Carmana and Towreck. Team Zeta will consist of: Cutlass, Beam, and Silentstrong along with Spironok. Now any questions?

"Force've habit, mech,"[/color] Jumpstart accepted the offered weapon with a slight nod of thanks, testing the balance by see passing it quickly between hands and saying nothing. He was well aware of the political situation - as any right thinking Cybertronian was - but although he worked for free in most cases, he always offered to pay his way.
Straightening up as Vibro called the team allocations, the medic almost looked the part of the typical Autobot trooper...with the notable exception of the med-core marking he wore in place of the standard Autobrand. Unspacing his combat knife, he maglocked it to his right gauntlet in readiness for action and stood ready to deploy.
"Ready when you are."[/color]
Aegis was about to take her leave from Laser and make her way to the command deck when the follow-up comm came in from Vibro. Watching as the guardian came to his feet, the femme offered quietly:
"It seems our allocations are already settled and although I appreciate you may consider this a rather ridiculous offer as inferior as I am to you, it stands. Take what time you wish to compose yourself and do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any assistance at all. Until then, I will remain airborne within easy distance and will offer reports as necessary."[/color]
Opening a general comm channel in response to Vibro, the femme returned:
"Acknowledged, Vibro, I will remain in the hangar ready to deploy at your discretion. Please advise."[/color]

Watertight had made his way rather reluctantly into the conglomeration of various Autobots. He was still feeling quite shy, but probably more than that, nervous on what would have been an impending fight. Simply put, he couldn't pretend like they weren't walking into the mouth of a beast. What's worse, it wasn't like he could talk he way out of it. The aquatic mech hated the idea of having to fight. He just wasn't confidant in those abilities. Still, he hated to disappoint, especially with what he was sure would be the lives of others on the line.
Removing his gaze from where it had firmly rested on the ground, Watertight listened intently on the orders. He supposed waiting by the ship wasn't an option. A heavy sigh escaped his mouth as he released his weapon from his back with a burst of air. Bringing his arm back around to hold the trident before him, he sharply turned his torso around in a stretching motion. Watertight popped his neck before bending his knees a bit, looking ready to sprint at the slightest notice.
"I'm ready as I'll ever be," He murmured.

Admittedly, Laser was surprised Vibro didn't want him providing over watch. But if he could have chosen anyone else to take his place, he would have chose Aegis. It may even be a better choice than he. He made sure to give her some quick advice, however. "Aegis, if for some reason their are enemies out, and they have AA munitions, fly low, or very, very high," he warned. "It will make them less accurate and you'll be more productive in the storm. I trust you can handle the weather, but be caught off guard and struck in the wing once--just once, and you'll flip out of control due to your light form. Well then, farewell. I would wish you luck, but I doubt you'll need it."
The latches unfastened on his back, popping off and releasing the monster from his back. It landed on the bay floor with a thud, hissing as it stood to it's full height, the drool of poison oozing from it's mouth.
"Open the doors. Release the creature...."
***************
Beam sighed dreamily at Cutlass. "That sounds soooo cool Cutlass..." She cast her eyes at the hallway for a moment, then returned to engaging with the others. For no reason, she looked at the bridge hall again.
Laser stood there.
"Holy shit!" She jumped and fell off her perch. "How long have you...?"
"Only a moment." He stepped forward and spoke to Vibro. "The Decepticons are here." He pointed to a load of burnt rubble outside. "Also, we face the threat of the Thetacons. They are immensely powerful and equally sickening beings that use theological science and philosophy in every move they make. We cannot outsmart them. Once we enter the vault, there is no turning back. We will become fodder if we do not work together. The leader of the Thetacons is Valk Templar. He is incredibly powerful, able to bend the will of the mind and break the heart of the spirit with his gift of telekinetic powers, bestowed unto him by the God of their diety, Diagon. Together, Valk, the Thetacons, Diagon, and the Sentinels fester in this hellhole to protect The Cube. Remember, the Thetacons often control fate as we know it. We found the clues in Protihex. They could have been planted...and they may very well expect our arrival."

Silentsong hated having to be protected, and it only made it worse when Vibro called her one of the weakest link. However, Silentsong stayed silent, she knew that there was nothing she could do about it, but she was going to do what she could to help Cutlass and the other bot who'd been assigned to protect her and Beam. Silentsong wondered who Spironok was and why Silentsong hadn't seen him. Silentsong was fairly sure that she knew the names of everyone she'd seen.
Silentsong was just beginning to think that the small team had a chance of surviving without any casualties when Laser walked in. As Laser began to explain what they would face, Silentsong began to think that the small band of Autobots would be doomed. Silentsong displayed none of her emotions through her faceplate and kept a serious expression. Inside Silentsong's processor though, she was filled with worry for her fellow teammates.
"If they know we're here, and their leader is so powerful, we need to do something unexpected, screw up whatever they're planning," Silentsong said. "We need some kind of an advantage, and we need it quick. Hopefully it'll be an advantage that will last," Silentsong had said her piece, so she waited for a response, and hopefully, a suggestion as to how to do that.
