Lokos replied off-handedly to Tracer, "And yet you continue to waste breath by replying to me. Either you have very poor self-control, or you simply enjoy lowering yourself to my partner's level."
Through their binary bond, the Nebulan felt an equal measure of annoyance and amusement filter in from Squeezeplay. Annoyance because the Nebulan persisted in insulting him in front of other Decepticons, amusement because Lokos was finding a new avenue to take digs at Tracer.

(OOC: At the moment, only Raindance is actively following StarBlade, but the arialbots are prolly gonna join in soon. There had been 2 ground units, but they gave up the chase when StarBlade went airborne.)
Getting Astrotrain's response, StarBlade didn't exactly relax, but she did keep a look-out for the flyers being sent. At the moment, only one Autobot showed up on her scanner, but he was a fast one. Cripes! How could that 'Bot be so blasted fast? And I bet those two jets that spotted me before I moved are gonna be following me soon, too. I hope Astrotrain sent up a couple good flyers, cause I can't really do a fire-fight at this speed!
With that thought, StarBlade pushed herself as fast as she could go, and hoped it would be fast enough.....

IC:
Spinister and Ramjet quickly approached StarBlade's position. The Targetmaster had his infra-red scanners active, searching the ground in front of him.
As they were nearly upon the assassin, Spinister noticed two large heat sources hiding in the rocks below.
What have we here?
He activated his commlink. "StarBade, this is Spinister. My sensors show what I imagine are two Autobots aground nearby. Change course three degrees north to avoid them. Ramjet will escort you to Metrotitan while I make an attack run."
Without waiting for a reply, Spinister dove. His particle beam cannons fired, blasting apart rocks near where Slapdash and Joyride were lurking.
***
Ramjet bristled as Spinister's order came across the comm, but he knew it would be useless to argue. Still, he had to choke down an urge to blast StarBlade to dust with a barrage of cluster bombs as he saw her.
Bitterly, he called over the comm, "Head for base, StarBlade. I can watch your back."
Until we lose these Autobots, anyway...

StarBlade relaxed a little when Spinister contacted her. "StarBade, this is Spinister. My sensors show what I imagine are two Autobots aground nearby. Change course three degrees north to avoid them. Ramjet will escort you to Metrotitan while I make an attack run."
"Right." She immediately turned 3 degrees north, then realized that Spinister said Ramjet. Oh, this should be fun.... A moment later, she picked up a pair of explosions, then Ramjet contacted her.
"Head for base, StarBlade. I can watch your back." StarBlade heard the bitterness in his vocoder, and responded as kindly as she could.
"Ramjet, your assistance is appreciated, but I think perhaps I'd better trust in my speed right now." Opening the comm to both jets, she added, "Thank you both for giving me backup as I returned. I might be fast, but at this speed, I'm terrible in a dog fight." Knowing this gave Ramjet an insight on a way to attack her, StarBlade made certain that she wasn't in Ramjet's sights, and headed for base.

IC:
Spinister saw Slapdash and Joyride split up.
Smart. If I choose one as my target, the other one would have a clear shot at my back. A good plan, though not the best one to use against a Double Targetmaster. I wish I had time to give them a fight. He sighed to himself. But I have a job to do. Which means I have to leave before those two get in firing position and pin me down.
Spinister turned his tail towards the Powermasters, and headed for the other Decepticons. His rotor blades whirled madly as he built up speed and altitude.
He opened the comm to StarBlade and Ramjet.
"Enemy threat scattered."
***
Ramjet felt a wave of amusement at StarBlade's words.
She doesn't trust me to give her cover. She might be smarter than she looks...
As she addressed him and Spinister a second time, Ramjet was even more amused.
...or maybe she isn't, after all.
He forced down an urge to put her words to the test by using his patented ramming attack. After all, Astrotrain wouldn't like it if his new favorite soldier came home all crumpled up.
He keyed his comm as the femme sped off.
"OK, StarBlade. I'll follow ya in."

Raindance had slipped by both jets and was still tailing Starblade. His fuel tanks were beginning to run dry and his small size was making keeping up harder and harder. The goal now was to keep close enough to have her in visual range and watch her land before turning back. Even with all this every thing he saw was going right back to Blaster.

Galvatron appeared before the assembly of Decepticons. He raised his hand to silence their cheers and ruckus.
Gavlatron: "My Decepticons...my Decepticons...today...as the sun rises, a new dawn appears before us...a dawn of a new age!"
Galvatron pauses as the crowd erupts in joy...
Galvatron: "Today...this new age begins with a great awakening! One by one, our brothers have chosen to make the long trek back from beyond...free to rejoin their rightful place...by our sides!"
A shocked murmur goes over the Decepticons.
Galvatron: "It is true...and they have chosen the best possible time...for today marks the start of our rise to ULTIMATE POWER! Today, we begin our march...the chain of events has started...first the fall of Megatron, the return of Gigatron, the rise of the fallen...and now...the next step...a step I have already started. I will not lie to you...the road ahead is going to be most difficult. However, with the power we possess and our replenished numbers even the revitalized Autobots don't have a chance! Their choice will be clear, surrender and come into the fold or perish...once they are crushed and subjugated, then this pathetic planet will follow...and then...we shall turn our wrath on those slimy, five faced usurpers of our home...we shall bury the quints in the tattered pieces of their tenticles. Our very destiny is conquest...its what Primus built us for...its our very nature. Ours is not a road of peace, but of war...and as a warrior race, our very souls cry for battle...FOR VICTORY!"
A large shout emerges VICTORY!
Galvatron: "For too long...we have denied ourselves this...this peace we share...that is not the way of the Decepticons...ours is a way of conquest...and that is what we shall do from this point forward..."
Galvatron then ordered Starscream to bring out the prisoner.
Galvatron: "Recently we were infilitrated, Sixshot and Thunderwing are rounding up the rest of the party...but this one...this one was brought to me..."
Prisoner: "This isn't possible...my lord...I don't know how this could be..."
Galvatron: 'Silence AUTOBOT! Let you're death serve as an example to those who defy my will...those who oppose the empire!"
Prisoner: 'But sir...I'm...urk!"
Galvatron: (drew the prisoner in close) "I know exactly who you are!"
Galvatron drove his fingers deep into the optics of the captured bounty hunter, gave the neck a quick jerk, then tore it from the body...a smirk came across Galvatron's face as the body slumped to the ground....lifeless...Galvatron then tossed the head to the ground, which Starscream crushed beneath his foot.
Galvatron: "Now then my legions...any questions?"

Galvatron: "Now then my legions...any questions?"
No questions Windslice thought giving a less then supportive look up to Galvatron. Just answers for you He had taken seat at the back with his arms crossed as his optics watched this leader. The transformer was defenseless, there was no honour there. Windslice cringed as he remembered his own attacking of someone who was defenseless, he thought he was just a cowardly Decepticon. He was tempted to lock on right here with every Decepticon's back turned he'd take out many before dying himself. Thinking on it more what he had seen thus far of the Decepticon force he could probably get out alive and with their leader's purple painted cranium. He inched one of his hands behind him petting the bottom rotor, the one that helped form the double katana. The Auto-Targeting gun moved and targetted Galvatron's head as he slowly took a step back into the corridor breaking the lock.
"Maybe another time" he whispered still watching.

Astrotrain stood on Galvatron's other side, adjacent to Starscream. His heavily flanged vocoder was mirthful, confident.
"We have the meteriel, the manpower, and the morale to shatter the Autobots forever. As Lord Galvatron has said, victory is inevitable. I almost pity the Autobots...almost."
The Triple Changer laughed.
"We march to war even as the Autobots reel from attacks against their officers, indeed, their very confidence. We will show the humans that we are truly the rulers of their world, and after we have smote the Autobots very ruin upon the planet they failed to protect, as our Lord Emperor as said, we shall take back Cybertron. And smash any who stand in our way."
The Administrator held up a hand.
"Hail Galvatron."

StarBlade chuckled, then noticed a blip still on her scanner. Opening a comm to both jets again, she spoke. "Um, I'm still reading one enemy following me. Not a big reading, but large enough to be an Autobot. Its fast, but is having a hard time keeping up with me. Keep a look out."
StarBlade couldn't put on much more speed, so she used what she had to head for a nearby cloudbank, and change her heading, hoping to throw Raindance off her tail. When she left the cloudbank, she noticed that she was closer to Metrotitan than she thought. Pushing what little extra speed she had, StarBlade sped for home.

Damn pc, apols again for abs.
Indeed, I did call Bludgeon. I am awaiting the arrival of three others.....At that time, Overlord arrived. Shockwave acknowledged his arrival by continuing.
"Make that two others. When they arrive, I shall proceed."
"Make that two others. When they arrive, I shall proceed."
Shockwave's office
"If the matter is of importance and requires immediate actions... why not to brief me and Overlord now and the others when they decide to arrive?" Bludgeon spoke out his mind, his seemingly empty eye sockets staring at the one-eyed Decepticon.

"But I'm bored!" the white Battlecharger moaned. "We've done nothing since we hit this rock but run around doing errands. I wanna blow something up!"
"Don't worry," Runabout said. "You'll get your chance. There's a whole bunch of stuff to blow up here. Unless Galvatron has any big plans to blow up the world, it will all still be there."
He paused, then turned to Galvatron.
"You don't have any plans to blow up the world...do ya, boss? I mean, not that I mind, or anything, but I think that my buddy here, along with the rest of us, might wanna tear this planet a new wase exhaust port before you blow it up."

If Shockwave was an emotional Decepticon, he would have sighed at Bludgeons question.
Being the logical being he is, he answered the question simply.
"Because this task requiers co-ordination. For this group to function perfectly, you need to be familiar with each other and with the task in hand. If I were to send you off individually, there would be no cohesion, and the task would fail. Are there anymore queries regarding this task?"
Overlord stood there, smirking at the dressing down Bludgeon was getting.
ooc- would it be possible to push for the arrival of Skywarp and Sixshot please?
