Shuttle
A voice responded Skorponok much to his suprise.
"The design of the shuttles was standardised thousands of years ago, The average size of Decepticons howver has been increasing."

Bridge, Thunder Arrow II:
Jalgar: -at the comm terminal- "Uh oh."
Leozak: -closes the ops console, smiling as the displays light up and start working properly- "What?"
Jalgar: "We've got a shuttle inbound. Scorponok wants to land and come aboard."
Leozak: "That shouldn't be a problem."
Jalgar: "But Captain, it's a little odd, isn't it? We're pretty much back online and suddenly they show an interest."
Leozak: "It makes sense. We've got a main gun that could probably carve Crystal City and it's environs out of the planet. Wouldn't you want to keep an eye on us if we were over your head?"
Jalgar: "When you put it that way, yes."
Trypticon: "We could land."
Leozak: "And open ourselves to potential sabotage? We're much safer right here. If nothing else, we can monitor who comes and goes, allow small groups to board for easier monitoring. Keep an optic on him when he gets here, Trypticon, and monitor all of his transmissions." -moves to command chair, sits- "Patch it through, Jalgar."
Jalgar: "Aye, Captain." -hits appropriate switches-
Leozak: -hits switch on command chair's armrest- "Scorponok, you have permission to land in Pod Bay 1."

Shuttle
Scorponok hummed down his weapons and watched in amusement as Download popped out. "Ah. Gigatron sent you?" possibly to keep an eye on me. But then, given my track record... "What are your specifications, do tell?"
The Decepticon turned to the commlink and replied to Leozak, "Affirmative." he replied, "I'm on my way."
As the shuttle reached the upper atmosphere, the Thunder Arrow II became visible. Scorponok looked on his scanners for 'Pod Bay 1', and steered his shuttles there, snorting in disgust as the control stick creaked under his massive claws. "Standard is standard, but there's some evidence of shabby construction." He muttered. "We're here, Download." he said as the shuttle docked.

The Fortune - Wastelands Airspace (outside of Crystal City)
Landmine sat very comfertable in his chair and put his thumb up. "Great! You know, I didn't think we would be here this fast, Dealer. This is a great ride you have here. Must have cost you a fortune! Ha! Landmine said and laughed at his own joke.
Waverider rolls his eyes. "Jokes aren't really your thing, Landmine.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever," Landmine replies. "I'm just glad we're almost there."
(ooc @ grimkuz: Please don't move Springer where I don't want him to be yet. I know it's taking a while for this part to move on, but I've been a bit busy lately)

The Fortune, Wastlelands Airspace
"Didn't cost me a thing, actually," Doubledealer answered Landmine. "Got it during a gig. Nevermind the details. For a job well done, I had the option of either getting paid in credits or receive a nice new ship. Guess which one I went with? It was totally worth it. Now I can get to and from places all over the planet without the hassle of a built-in condor mode."
Dealer looked to the monitor, noticing the city not far off on the horizon.
"Well, there it is, folks - Crystal City," he informed the Pretenders. "Buckle up, fellas. We're going in."
Dealer steered the small shuttle downwards, making a descent towards the Crystal City borders.

(OOC: I'm assuming the Fortune would show up on Barry's sensors. If not, PM me and I'll edit this part.
)
Barricade, spotting a shuttle heading into Crystal City from Iacon on his scanners, hailed the shuttle. "Unidentified shuttle, you have entered Decepticon airspace. Please identify yourself and state your intentions."
The Micromaster's finger hovered above the button that would order the AA batteries to fire. After all, he was still fuming after the whole Bug Bite fiasco.

Scorponok nodded, guessing that Download is one of Gigatron's spies. Not that it mattered -- Scorponok did not intend to betray Gigatron. Yet. "Your assistance at monitoring the processes would be appreciated." Scorponok said. "Here we go.."
The shuttle landed on Pod Bay One rather smoothly for a pilot without fingers.

Scorponok frowned. "I have been thinking about the same thing, Download. By hiding you, we'll have an advantage. While the Breastforce are distracted with talking and watching me, they'll not catch sight of you, letting you do your work undisturbed. But if they see you, they'll kill you, or at least a firefight will break out. And we really don't want them to feel like they're being betrayed. Fracturing the faction is the least thing we need."
"On the other hand, if we don't hide you, they won't be suspicious of you and you can openly browse Trypticon's databases in pretense of searching information, so I suggest a compromise. Say that you're one of my semi-sentient drones, much like Fasttrack is. That way, they'll not put too much thought into you and if anything happens to you, I can cover it up." Scorponok thought, "Although, if you have any suggestions?..."

"Heh, I thought it was too quiet," Doubledealer said.
Pressing a switch near the monitor, he opened a channel to The Fearless.
"Yeah, this is Dealer of The Fortune here," he answered Barricade. "I'm just escorting a couple of 'bots to the Wastlelands/Crystal City Borders. Don't know any of the details, just that they're here to help Giggy and some other 'Bot named Springer."
