Wraith flies down after V. "I doubt we'll fail." He slows down his flight to keep pace with him.
Whysp digs her sword into the floor and leans on it waiting for anything to try and attack them.

Chance had debated his options for a few klicks longer than planned, usually quick to respond to a new challenge, the Minibot held back in this instance letting the more capable amongst their odd number follow V into the bowels of the building.
However, being appointed as a sentry wasn't really the little mech's style either. Watching as Wraith went after the inventor, the black and white chipped in his two-credit's worth, "Gimme holler 'fn ya need anyt'in' tech-wise. Pretty handy wit' stuff like dat, see, 'kay"[/color]
Once the two had cleared the area of immediate danger and deactivated the master controller for the drones, he'd follow on and start his scouting mission to find those discs.

Empire didn’t watch any of the bots as they descended the tower. He knew that simply watching would not change the outcome and knew he had better uses for his time. Using the surrounding rubble, Empire began to block the roof top door. The barricade of disabled drones would only last so long and if V’s plan failed, he did not want to make it easy for the drones to return to the roof.
Below, V had finished his climb down the town and had his cannon ready. Aiming the cannon at the front door, V began to give a quick overview of his plan. “Looks like we got lucky, the front doors aren’t intact, so I can shoot right into the tower from outside and not get in your way. The computer behind the front desk all you have to do is type in the command [Deactivate: Drones] after that, it will be safe for is to go in and I can reprogram the drones.”
“Remember, I won’t be able to hit all the drones in the lobby, but I can get you a clear path to the desk, so ready or not, here we go.” V fired a Massive EMP pulse through the doors of Echcon tower and listened to the sound drones as they froze and fell to their sides.

Wraith darts into the room a shadowy blur. He melds into the shadows and starts to look around for the desk and computer.
The desk appears to have been toppled. He flies around to it managing to stay invisible in the shadows.
He gently touches one of the buttons on the computer, which was now on the floor.
The screen lights up giving away his location and allowing one of the drones to open fire.
The only sound he makes is a small hiss as he ignores the pain and types in the command. This had better work...

All of the drones froze.
All at once, the drones fell to their sides and remained inactive. Walking through the doorway, V examined the state of the tower. Although most of the lights were on, a good number of them had either been destroyed or were merely flickering. Holes on both the ceiling and the floor were scattered about and were obviously being used by the drones as tunnels. “Fascinating, the drones weren’t letting the tower fall into disrepair, they were completely redesigning the layout of the tower.”
V walked over to the computer and began to type rapidly. “It would seem that the drones were following a blueprint that someone made before the tower crashed, but a lot of this programing is, ‘buggy’. There are several commands that conflict with one another and they are probably the cause of the hostilities the drones showed us. I’ll stay here and fix the programing while you can search for the computers, they should be down the left hallway.” V then sent a transmission giving the all clear and began to fix the drones’ programing.
Up on the roof, Empire smiled upon getting the news and began his decent of the tower.

Chance glanced around as Empire started to make his way down into the tower, he had to admit to a little uneasiness at the moment but all the same the small black and white wasn't about to show it. Squaring up, he raised his doorwings and set himself up for whatever was coming his way next. Drone or worse, it was going to get fragged over big-time.
"Look like 's jus' me an' you, Whysp.... we stayin' topside or headin' in wit' Wraith an' Empire an' dat? Ain' nothin' but nuked drones 'ere. Real keen t' go see 's goin' on in dis place. Ain' 'bout t' leave ya 'lone up 'ere though, see."[/color]
Ah yes, even the smallest of Autobots had an innate sense of chivalry it seemed.

Whysp smirks. "You don't have any reason to worry about me." She proceeds to follow Empire down into the tower.
Wraith moves onward in search of the computers.
((OOC: I really hate these short posts... It just doesn't feel like it's complete...))

V watched Wraith walk off before returning to the computer. “Ok, let’s try this.” V murmured. A loud screech echoed throughout the tower followed by faint static. “Ok, the intercom system is still functional; well, mostly. The drones have been fixed and I will be reactivating them soon. Anyway, as hard as it is to believe, the drones are apparently trying to convert the tower into, a massive ship of some sort. I know that it sounds crazy, but it makes sense, the weapons that the drones had, the disregard for entire sections of the tower, and the fact that I am looking as the blueprints for a ship called Echcon.”
Empire listened to V as he descended the side of the tower. He had hoped that his plan to convert the tower into a ship would stay secret, but now that it was in the undergrid, it didn’t matter anymore. With each moment he mad, Empire could feel the tower slowly crumbling, but he kept his focus on V’s report.
“Now that the mystery of the drones has been solved, I think it is going to be smooth sailing, let me just check the security cameras first. Oh Primus.” There was silence for a moment before V spoke again, but in the moment everyone could tell something was horribly wrong. V’s voice shattered the silence as he began to yell through the intercom. “Everyone, get out of here now! If you value your life, don’t go in the tower, just run! Empire, you told me you had them killed, there are at least 30 of them all over the tower and…..”
V took a deep breath before continuing. “They have me surrounded” suddenly, an unnatural screech could be heard along with the unmistakable sound a V’s screams slowly fading away. Rapidly, Empire finished his climb down and burst through the doors of the tower just in time to see V’s legs get dragged through one of the holes in the ceiling. In the center of the room, a single bot sat crouched into a ball. The bot was badly damaged and wirers were sticking out of its arms. Upon hearing Empire enter the tower the bot stood up revealing an exposed spark chamber. Wirth a spin chilling screech, the bot lunged at Empire.

Hearing the screech, Chance bolted down the hole into the tower, guns drawn and ready for action. The drop wasn't enough to do him overly much damage, but it did knock the small mech into an off-balance crouch for a moment or two. This was long enough for him to assess the situation and realise he might just have made a doozy of a miscalculation in his haste to help.
Drones littered the corridor ahead of him and in the dim, sparking lights overhead, he could just about make out the silhouettes of Empire and another, hellishly contorted form up ahead of him.
Capitalising on his dark colouration, the minibot skirted shadows to close on the area and make a better assessment of the situation...

Wraith flies back into the room to see the strange bot lunge at Empire. He swipes his claws at it trying to drag it away from Empire, whether he drags it away in one piece or many he doesn't care. "What the hell kind of experiments did you do in this tower?!"
Whysp blends herself into the shadows, she had never heard anything like the noise that thing made. She watches as Wraith swipes at it. This should be interesting...
