Echon Ruins

[Cutlass Rebooted]

Wraith looks round to see a small bot asking him not to shoot, that would be the least of the bot's worries.
"Who are you?"
At least if this bot means harm he'd finally have an opportunity to feed...
Whysp ignores the bot and talks in hushed tones to the others of this team.
"Don't worry about this guy, if he's trouble Wraith will take care of him, just head off to the locations and we'll catch up later."

((Locations being Iacon outskirts and Kaon.))

"Check an' check," Chance nodded to Whysp, then turning his attention to Swiftwhisper, the Minibot raised his door-wings slightly and added seriously, "Ready t' go on y' mark." He'd naturally defer to anyone bigger or better equipped as group leader in situations like this. As good as he was at his job, he simply wasn't leadership material. Transforming to his hover-speeder mode, he ran a quick systems check and waited on his newly appointed partner for direction.

For his part, the small black and white wasn't entirely comfortable with the newest of the newcomers. The mech was just too eager to submit to the group's rule and proclaim his lack of hostility. Still, he took Wraith and Whysp at face value, even as Cons themselves. They hadn't crossed him yet. He was certain that the newcomer posed no threat at all to the team...if only by dint of the fact that any one of the other three could and would lay him low quite easily.

Swiftwhisper's gaze lingered on the newcomer cautious as if she did not trust his word fully. Shaking her head she nodded the once to her new partner, transforming into motorcycle and driving off rapidly. She believed that Chance would simply follow her and so consequently chose to say nothing. Swiftwhisper disliked being near the cons, even if two of them had essentially saved her life, the fact that they had saved her was not lost on her, however they where still enemies or at least wore the badge of her enemy. Yet... That should have meant they where enemies but they had been nothing but good companions since she made their company. This outcome, confused her, perhaps they did not hold allegiance to the cons after all.

"Who are you?"

LabRat’s mind rushed at its normal million cycles per nanoclick as the question was asked. After all who were these bots, and why are they here? After stepping out he noticed that they were pretty heavily armed for lab assistants. They could have been security, but why would Primus put a security team in LabRat’s new lab that didn’t recognize him on sight? They could have been here to ‘collect him’ but from what he’s heard of Megatron’s habits that was never a good thing. Instead LabRat decided to answer the question with a little white lie, nothing too obvious.


“The name’s Scantron!” he proclaimed proudly, a look confidence washed over his face as he felt pleased with the name he’d given himself. “I’m a Scientist and this is my new lab. Primus gave it to me after cycles of wishing for one.” LabRat paused for a second, but not long enough for anyone to speak if they wanted to. Instead he continues with his story “He kinda dropped it on my old lab, and old lab assistant” He thought it best not to disclose the Lab Assistant was actually a test subject. If these guys were Autobots they would frown on his experiments. “I was hoping you were all new Lab Techs but that doesn't look to be the case. So what are you guys? Security? Investors?” LabRat frowned for a second and with much less enthusiasm asked "Tax Collectors?"

"None of those, I like to think of myself as an assassin or hunter." A slight smirk appears on Wraith's face as he waits to see how the bot reacts.
Whysp wondered for a moment why Wraith had called himself an assassin. Oh, you're trying to get a fight out of him so you can feed... Sneak.

Miles away in the desert:
A tiny shadow dragon starts to panic as the decepticons start to leave. Whysp, the decepticons are leaving! WHERE ARE YOU?!
What took you so long to contact me? Oh never mind, I want you to follow the autobots for now as we've found a couple more of their number, inform me when they leave and where they are headed.
Yes Mistress. The dragon scurries off across the sand to the Bloodrust.

"None of those, I like to think of myself as an assassin or hunter."

LabRat let out a sigh of relief at hearing the words “Ohh good, I was afraid you were something really scary like bureaucrats. I could just imagine all of the red tape to claim that Primus dropped a building from the sky for you.” LabRat eyed up Wraith taking in his form and possible functions. “Well I do have a need for a security team, and assassins would make for an impressive force, but you’ll need to work on your sneakiness. I mean I could hear you guys from all the way over there.” LabRat gestures back to the room that he just came out of. The door nearly filled in with pieces of salvaged computer bits and drone parts. “Sine you seem like the friendliest of the bunch I’ll appoint you chief of security. You will of course have to actually tell me your name so I can get the promotion papers drawn up to make it all official and such. I’ll let you appoint your own second in command” LabRat stands there with a smile on his face that betrays the intellect actually behind his cobalt colored optics. For as smart as he was LabRat really was common sense stupid and almost child like.

Wraith laughs. "If I were here on business we would not be having this conversation. As for your security, look around you, there's drones everywhere. My partner and I are leaving." Realizing he was not going to get a fight out of the bot he turns to leave.
Whysp just looks at the scientist for a moment before following Wraith.

((Moving on to Iacon now... Just so it does't seem totally random...))
