Looking over her weapon brought back bad memories in the blowfish-former, even as she looked towards the hostage. It had been a while since Miami and many of the other guards had been in this position, transporting a prisoner to the higher ups for question. Even longer since she had worn her tactical armor, having taken a cushier job at Deva Crop. Still... these kind of skills never leave a person. She takes a moment to head towards the backdoor of the carrier, glancing down at Afterburner's deactivated shell on the ground. The kid had remained quiet through the whole trip so far, even more so as they entered Polyhex. "Saving your words for the council, aye?" She commented down towards him as she took a glance out the shielded window. "Good idea. Isn't that how we busted that one perp Cooper? Guys who talk always seem to have a bit of guilt... like they're talking to keep from saying the wrong thing. Funny how that backfires on them..." Data remained silent and still, contemplating the words. He just wasn't up for talking at the moment, he was taking a big chance with this. She takes a moment to tap her comm-link, sending a communication over the security force's subspace link. ~Takedown, you still with us? I've got a bad twitch going on here.~ She comments, looking at her left hand squeeze and release the weapon. ~Nine cycles out of ten, that's a reall bad sign.~ If those in pursuit of the same vehicle had not been cloaked... it would be very obvious she was right. ooc: Set up this thread so the brotherhood of shadows could try to frame the technobots even more by staging a 'rescue' of sorts. Feel free to go hog wild guys.

---Takedown--- C:> " If you'd call it dat"* the groggy and irritated 'councilman' grumbled back. Still sore over the triage performed after the confrontation between himself and this terrorists group. A significant black eye all around... Cybertronian law enforcement only able to get one of these 'wannabes'. He was allready on guard, keeping an eye out from his position as this convoy moved along.* C:> "Thinkin our little guests runnin buddies 're gunna try sumthin stupid?"* He snickered over the comm. Taking into account how much mechpower they have guarding this pissant. The council invested a lot into making sure this twerp made it in for questioning... any attempt on their part would be suicide. Not like he'd object to any action.* C:> " Let 'em try... we'n haul even more a deir aft ends in."~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ---Nightbird--- * Even with her cloak engage... the assasin instivily remained on guard... remaining in the shadows as she followed the convoy, watching and waiting for their opportunity.* C:> "shadows... report status."

MIAMI 'Something like that...' Miami responded calmly. 'Even if he's innocent, the other terrorists probably don't want him to prove it.' ---- SS2 AND BB
'In position. Going to send the drones in 1st?' the jet former responded coyly.

--Crasher--
The ram bot was oblivious to the chatter going on around him, he had slipped into a light sleep cycle, his energy reserves still low even after his repairs. He may not be happy being locked up, but he wasn't gonna try breaking out now that he was captured. Maybe if someone eordered his death he'd run, but meh, he hoped he could get this straightened out.
~~
--Ghost drone--
the tank shell Ghost watched the prossession from shifted slightly, sites zooming in on the transport's engines and drives.

---Takedown--- C:> Oh c'mon... don't tell me yer fallin fer dat exaust?* He snarked back as they continued to move along, the streets having allready been cleared from their predetermined route.* C:> If I had a nikel fer every collar who said he didn't do it, I could retire a millionaire back on Earth.* He grumped back, soon to reply with his own snide insinuation.* C:> "You aint goin soft now are ya?"~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ---Nightbird--- C:> " Affirmative. They shall draw the bulk of the forces fire while we fulfil our objective."* She stated coldly, annoyed almost. That is right before venomously biting back, strangely in the same cold tone.* C:> " If you could pay attention durring debreifings, I wouldn't have to waste valuable time repeating the Masters orders."

Cooper chuckled when Miami told her about the past while she cocking her Devacorp-issued Automatic varible shell Shotgun "Yeah, I remember that. It would have been really funny if they aren't so pathetic. They should have Ha!" One intern looked at the unofficially called Technobots V2 and blinked in confusion. "Where's Scattershot?" asked the intern "Shouldn't Scattershot being leading them?"
"I don't know. I heard rumors there was only four of them when Takedown came after them." A Purple and grey Car-based Maximal replied, shrugging "Maybe whoever made the armors, didn't made Scattershot."
Trailbreaker and a small cadre of armed Devacorp staff and interns were watching over the damaged Afterburner, all having their weapons trained on him in case he decides to make a break for it. The squid/badger femme looks at the new armor. She couldn't help it notice, it was a lot more high-tech than the usual stuff Devacorps have. She blinks at it. "Think R & D can use this stuff, Miami? I mean think of the souped Aerialbot armors we'll have. Also, where this stuff came from?"
************ "That's just great." Diva said as she sees the convoy that's taking the two young Technobots towards the council. She also noted that they seven Aerialbots units in the sky and a couple of cyclebot . "And me without a rocket launcher," she commented. "Looks like my bosses decided to cart them off to jail. This could be trouble, baby."
Well, bigger trouble. She's running the risk of exposing Data's identity to Merkava, who probably will report this to Onslaught II who well than report it to the council. She's also running a huge risk going up against her coworkers. And some of them are packing Aerialbot and Cyclebot armors. She would love to mix it up with them, but she's in a rather delicate position right now. Can't harm herself and the baby. "So what you suggest, Merky Baby? Seeing you're Military hardware" She purred.

A screen flickered on one of the armors and scrolled across "Come a little closer and say that again."
"Frac, behave." Crasher muttered in his sleep, something in the beating the pair had taken, having linked them on a greater level then before.
~~
"What do you mean I can't speak with him?" Icebird growled, crossing her arms over her chest as she stared down the young officer manning the desk.

-So you're saying a bunch of punk kids decided to build a drone army after helping fight off uni's last attempt on the planet? Look at the facts.- Miami responded dully before turning to the intern. 'Shot's been missing in action since hellscream. Might be in a shallow grave... Poor slag.' Noting Trail's comment, she adds, 'Knockoff, but improved Breaker. Definately aerialbot offshoot though, look at the exposed circuits.' ------- -I trust mighty zarak's plan, dearie.- SS replied curtly. He would bide his time for retribution. ----- 'I'm security council personel, maam. Should be able to join the convoy.' Merk chips in, confident in his answer. ----- 'I'm sorry maam, he's in transport to the decepticon council under classified reasons. You'll have to contact Dirge.' Was the response to Icebird. Ooc: all on cel, lol

"I don't know. Something about the last part seems suspicious. Building a drone army after saving Cybertron? That doesn't make much sense." Cooper replied "One, what would they get out of that. Two, judging by the poor bastards, I don't think the drones came from them. Doesn't seem weird?"
Trailbreaker takes a closer at the armor. "You're right. Aerialbot grade stuff. Not only that, they also removed the identification codes. That means, we can't trace it back to the ones that gave them the armor.
********
" And I'm a Devacorp employee. Maybe we can just quietly sneak in and say we're with them," Diva agreed with him. Who knows? Maybe nobody won't be the wiser.

"And just where is Dirge, cause he seems to be hiding from me." Ice countered. "You take one little leave of absence to get control of your new frame and suddenly you're a no body."
~~
"Give the bot a ener-cookie." scrolled across Fracture's screen. "He can use his processor."

Miami nods lightly. "Probably same source, though ours did disappear after a while." Her hands tighten around the weapon for a moment. "Too quiet... like the calm before a storm." She responds before heading up to the driver up front. "How much farther are we?" She asks confidently despite her worry. **************************************** Merkava nods lightly as he starts to move into formation alongside the group. ~Security Trainee Merkava with the decepticon security forces sir.~ He commented over the comm-link back to Takedown. ~They wanted me to come along for extra muscle.~ Technically it wasn't a lie. **************************************** "I'm sorry Icebird, things have been hectic to say the least around here." Dirge responds as he comes out of the elevator, looking no better then he did when Diva had released her gravity powers upon the upper levels. "Been dealing with one situation after the other. How can I help you?"

---Road Ranger--- * the Cab's console blinked in response to Miami's question. C:> " Won't be much longer. Bout half a Mega-cycle at the most." ~~~~ ---Takedown--- * The old mech internally grumbled. Despite the war having ended centuries ago, he still harbored a deep-rooted distrust of anyone who wore that Purple seal. The 'trainee' bit wasn't all too welcoming either* C:> (To Merkava): "Well la-te-da. You best be able ta hold yer own when it gits rough kid... otherwise you'd better duck 'n stay outta our way!"* the old timer snarked back. Rookies... all the same. Seen too many times where their inexperiance have fouled up operations or gotten themselves killed. He might not be the brightest coucilman on the... council... but something doesn't sit well in his fuel line.* C:>(to Miami) " What the slag is dis? We're s'posed ta be movin da prisoner... not baby-sittin rookies!"~~~~~ ---Nightbird--- * the femme's optics narrowed at Starscreams response. She was too well versed in Cybertronian history to trust anyone carying that moniker. She watched silently, waiting for their cue* C:> "Ghost... the convoy is nearing your position. Are you prepared to strike?"

Ghost:
C>: I am. I have my target sighted.... they are in range. Attacking now.
An energy blast shot from the tank drone's turret aimed for the the transport's drive. immediately it re targeted to take out the one of the escort mechs closest to her position. From there she chose targets that would cause the most havoc even targeting some structures to bring them down to block the road.
~~
Ice:
"I want to know how my ward is. He's a good kid, and I know he's pulled things around. He swore he wouldn't fall into the seedier doings again after he was form locked."

---Road Ranger--- * The Energy beam tore through the sky... nailing the transport dead-center in the grill. The vehicle shuddered as the blast tore through his internal circuitry... severing the drive block... and critically injuring the mech.* * The convoy barely had time to react, before another beam shot down, searing a hole clean through the lead vehicles hood. Killing the mech instantly and causing his sparkless husk to veer back into 2 others.* ~~~ ---Takedown--- C:> "SNIPER!!!"* The old warmech screamed out before he hit the brakes... pulling back out of the line of fire before shifting into robot mode. His teeth gritting toghether as he silently cursed Miami's gut instict. Damned Techno-posers... guess the first beat-down wasn't enough for them, they had to piss him off even more.* C:> " Defensive formation Delta... Repeat... Defensive formation Delta! Somebody get a beed on that slagger. Air support get ready to bring da heat on dat halfbreed moron. Nobody gets away with slaggin law enforcement... Not on my watch."~~~ ---Nightbird--- * if not for her faceplate... one may notice the cruel smirk upon Nightbirds faceplate, watching ghosts handywork.* C:> " Starscream, BB... your up. It's time give their precious air support some... unexpected Turbulence."* The ninja coldly commanded from her position, as she surveyed the battlefeild, preparing herself for her own task at hand.*

Cooper heard that transmisson. What would Merkava be doing here? Before she could ask that question, she heard Takedown screamed "SNIPER!" The armed Interns scrambled to their positions and cocking/activating their weapons and/or weapon system. Trailbreaker barked at the Interns to get their tail pipes in gear. "Okay, boys and girls! Get into position! This is not a drill! Get your tailpipes in gear and secure the prisoners!" The interns, who went through a bunch of training Cooper patched a line through the Cyclebot team.
"Ground Support! You heard Takedown! Position Delta! Guard the convoy!" Cooper yelled while she was cocking her shotgun and got in front of Afterburner and got into position. The interns came to Cooper's aid and assumed to position. So much for this trip going quiet and smoothly as possible.
*************************** <<Defensive formation Delta... Repeat... Defensive formation Delta! Somebody get a beed on that slagger. Air support get ready to bring da heat on dat halfbreed moron. Nobody gets away with slaggin law enforcement... Not on my watch>>
"Roger!" Barked an Green, Purple, and Black Housefly Predacon wearing an all grey Aerialbot armor that's resembling the orginial Aerialbots' leader. He than open a commlink to his squad members. "Okay, femmes! We just got our asskicking orders from Takedown! Turn on your weapon systems and get ready to make it rain!"
"Yes, sir!" All the Aerialbots chanted. The Aerialbots activated their weapon systems, ready to rain down destruction at the jackass for having the lugnuts of even attacking them. "Scan the area and get a bead on the sniper!" The Aerialbot leader ordered. "Roger, fearless leader!" Barked one of the Aerialbot squad member. Two of them broke off from the group and started to scan the area for the attackers.
************************** Diva jumped and hid behind Merkava when she heard the explosion. "What in the pit?!" She shrieked. "That sounded like somebody is about to start something! Quick, Merkava! We have to get to that convoy!"
**************************
"Looks like the party is starting already." A husky and young sounding femme spoke. [glow=red,2,300] ~Looks like it~[/glow] An robotic but feminine sound voice ~[glow=red,2,300]So much for [glow=red,2,300]a quiet retrival mission.~[/glow][/glow]
"Thank the Pit! I was starting to get bored!" a teenage mech responded.
