Echon Ruins

Swiftwhispers kept a vigilant optic scanned for trouble while her current allies work to free their associate. She leant against a wall while she waited for them to complete their rescue of him, they did not ask for her help so she did not offer it.
Swiftwhispers mainly helped those who could help themselves by not helping, unless they where an Autobot yet even then she was rather... Picky when it came to being nice or generally acting nice. Whatever way you cut it, she was not good with others, not a team player. She was silent on the matter and remained so, keeping her watch while letting them work.

Wraith steps back as Chance dissolves some of the rubble. Noticing the beam being poked through the grating he takes a hold of it and uses it to lift the grating to what was hopefully high enough for Chance to escape.

[DarkXenith]

Using the remainder of the rubble as an impromptu stairway, the minibot quickly took advantage of the presented gap and made a final break for the surface. Emerging into the light, the black and white wingflicked and dusted himself off a little. Even scuffed and dented he still had to make an attempt to look his best.

Nodding his thanks to Wraith and giving Whysp a masked smile, Chance turned his attention to the newcomer to offer a quick greeting before asking, "'S plan den? Gotta get selves outta here quicksharp, right?"

[Silverflare]

Swiftwhisper scanned the new bot, this must have been their ally. At least he appeared to be an Autobot. She nodded back to him the once, the silent acknowledgement of his greeting. She was not a big fan of talking and their where too many bots and cons around for her liking. Swiftwhisper, enjoyed her company and her company only.

[Cutlass Rebooted]

"Yep, but it may be a good few hours before we can actually make a move. For now we need to scout these three shipyards."
Wraith highlights the three shipyards on the projection Whysp provides. Assuming he also has Swiftwhisper's attention he continues to voice his plan.
"The plan is we check them out now and whichever one of the three appears to be the least guarded, we take a ship from after dark. You won't need to worry too much about getting involved with that part, I have my own plans for any guards."
"Wraith and I will be taking this one." She pokes the larger area on the projection from behind. "Are you two going to work together?"

[DarkXenith]

Chance cast an optic over the new femme and nodded. He could get along quite nicely with most, being the outgoing, friendly sort that he was. Case in point, he was working with two 'Cons at the moment and peace was being maintained ostensibly. In fact, the minibot was of the opinion that they made a relatively good team all things considered. What was clear though was that Swiftwhisper was definitely not the sociable type. She hadn't uttered so much as a syllable in his hearing since he'd escaped the hole.

Deciding discretion was the better part of valour, the mini spoke up, "Sure t'ing. Less she rather not? Can easy do a recon on either location an' shout back on score m'self if not."

Raising his door wings, the black and white waited for input from Swiftwhisper. Whatever the outcome, he'd make the best of the situation and do his best either with or without her.

[Silverflare]

Swiftwhisper realised that she would have to speak. "I can work with him fine I'll try to bring him back in one piece" Her words where meant to be encouraging yet they sounded terribly grim as they came from her. However, she meant it she would try to protect the only Autobot she had seen in a while. He might have been small, but she could hardly talk about height... But he was an Autobot and when it came to company if she needed to pick between a con or a bot it would always be a bot.
"Shall we depart then?" Swiftwhisper felt unsure about whether or not she needed to introduce herself to him, perhaps an odd sprinkle of fame had seeped through and he recognised her name? Perhaps they had met previously even for a second? Who could say, all that she knew with narrow minded certainty that nothing would make her speak more than needed to be, no unnecessary information.

[DarkXenith]

"Don't gotta worry 'bout me none," Chance chirped, "Gotta real good 'andle on stuff, can take care've m'self."

It wasn't meant as a slight to her, just a reassurance that the small black and white wasn't the liability most took him to be. True, he wasn't a heavy hitter or a deadly assassin, but he had his own particular way of dealing with things. Offlining in an airvent wasn't his usual approach to a mission. It had been a minor blip. A result of over-exerting himself after his run in with the deranged mech, Stockpile.

Squaring up, the minibot gave a nod, "Just say d' word. Good t' go."

Of course, Chance being Chance, he'd already committed the schematic of the area to memory and marked off hot spots to check. Recon was, after all, one of his specialisms.

[Silverflare]

Swiftwhisper looked the smaller bot, Chance up and down casually as if she was observing him. For a moment she remained silent, clearly thinking processing whatever it was she had gathered from looking at him. "I see... I am sure you are most capable" That was Swiftwhisper for your good then. She glanced over her shoulder for a second, before turning to face Chance again. "Well then I think it is time we deployed then" She did not see any further reason for delay or to really socialise any further. Swiftwhisper had her team mate, her partner as it where. If any further communication needed to be done, it would be done with him and him alone.

It started out as quite a pleasant day for LabRat. A new ‘test subject’ had stumbled into the Undergrid and had gotten snared in one of his traps. Experiments were all running smoothly, no giant explosions, no gobs of pink goo everywhere. Yes it was starting out as a nice day all around. That was until SOMEONE DROPPED AN ENTIRE FRAGGIN' BUILDING ON HIS LAB!


He wasn't sure how long it took him to dig himself out of the rubble but now that he did someone was going to get a piece of his core processor. How rude can you be to just drop your building right on top of someone else’s home? It didn't take LabRat long however to notice that this wasn't any ordinary building. It was a tower, and not only that, but a tower that was made up of laboratories! Ohh Primus be praised, finally someone had listened to his wishing and a new lab was his. This just about made up for the loss of his new test subject undoubtedly crushed somewhere below him.


LabRat scurried through the hallways celebrating silently to himself, picking up pieces of interesting tech along the way. This was the best thing that happened to him since the Megatron moved his laboratory into the Undergrid ‘Out of concern for LabRat’s general safety’. Yeah right, LabRat was convinced that the other Decepticons actually forgot that he was down here. But none of that mattered now.


Pausing for a moment LabRat stopped and listened intently. In the distance he could hear voices, and not the normal ones. These voices came from outside his head, ‘Well then I think it is time we deployed then’. “Trespassers” he murmured. He had just gotten this new beauty and it was infected with trespassers already or maybe they were lab assistants. Wouldn't that be great if his new building came preloaded with assistants already? Or maybe test subjects. LabRat figured the only way to find out is to step out and greet the new comers. After all no one would shoot a friendly scientists on site, would they?



“Don’t shoot I give up!”
