Unleash the Reaper (Attn Cryptic)

[smokedtoast]

It didn't feel right to be here, that was the thought running through TM2DB's head as he continued through the tunnels running under the Ruins. This place had been condemned and closed off last he heard, as part of the cooperation between the Neo Terrorcons and the Security Forces. Closing off a number of horror shows for a pardon didn't seem so bad at the time.
But as he scurried forward in alt mode, sniffing the air... he couldn't help but wonder how this particular lab had reactivated. There were no signs of power drainage from the city as before. No place he could remember in his vague memories of this place to set up a decent reactor. It was wrong that it had power. He looked back to his collegue in investigation for a moment, speaking softly. "If they're doing anything it'll be in the far end of the place. They didn't let me in any farther then this, don't think they wanted father to know more then he did."
The room they entered had tubes for cloning, partially overgrown with organic tissue. It was creepy... and it was new. He slowed to a stop as he came over to one tube, noticing the organic tissue was even pulsing. "What in the pit?..."
*****************************
Elsewhere in the facility, a single pod opened softly as the fluid inside drained from it. It had taken some work to make something... dangerous of the caretaker, but Hellscream was proud of his work. He opened a comm channel towards his experiment's controller, beaming with pride as he responded. ~Oh Ghost, I do believe we have some former projects that you would be dying to get your hands on in the facility. Both of dinobot breed which should prove... useful in the future. Are you ready to test out your new little toy?"

X's nostrils where closed as tight as she could manage and still breath to keep the odors from making her gag. She could taste the fear, pain, and suffering that clung to the lab, and she didn't have any psychic abilities like Icebird. Truthfully, this place reminded her of the lab she'd woken up in, and brought back fragments of memories that refused to come into focus for her.

"Suddenly thinking we should have brought some of the walking flame throwers." X growled softly as she looked around.

~~

~Mmm, I love when they come right into my lair.~ Ghost replied as she took full control of the body, booting up the new systems she'd had installed. ~Oh, this does feel much more responsive...~

TM2DB nodded in response as he transformed back into his raptor form, staring down the organic tissue that had brown over the lab."Agreed... though I think we can suffice on that matter." He half-growled through his teeth as he focused his line of sight on some of the tissue, releasing a burst of laser fire. The tissue started to burn before retracting suddenly into itself, smothering the flames with the quick motion.
"At least it still burns..." He adds as he started to move further into the facility. "This was where I was created. This room I mean." He motions over to another container in the corner, half broken open. "Life... started with pain. I reacted in kind on my awakening..."
***************************
~I only make the best for those I like, my dear.~ Hellscream responded with a smug smile. ~Even if a connection is cut off... she'll be reaved up enough to keep attacking, if only for what she -thinks- she sees them as. Plenty of time to regain control while she tries to kill them~ He explains further as he watches her move.

X let out what could have been a chuckle. "Mine was much the same, though there was little pain inflicted on others."

She paced around another tank trying to decide of the lump in the base of it was some aborted experiment, or just part of the machine. "Though my birth place was much more primitive then this. i suspect I am lucky I came out as I did and not glitched monstrosity." She shook her head as flashes of running as fighting as a four legged mammal with claws flitted though her processor.

She whipped around, a cry of challenge emerging from her throat as hidden door slid open, reacting on something she had smelled rather then seen.

[smokedtoast]

"Sounds like-" He paused, noticing her headshake. He had seen this before in his father, memories that occasionally flittered to the surface, even after Tankorr had been purged from his mind. He would have asked if she was alright if not for the next swift motion, following her sudden jerk in the direction of the door sliding open. His eyes narrowed in confusion even as he uttered a similar cry... He never knew about this door, even after all the time he spent here with Rhinox. Suddenly his former home became all the more dangerous in his mind, even as he stepped back cautiously.

[Cryptic]

Ghost found that the new body was a little harder to control then she thought, getting all the parts, which seemed to have lesser minds of their own, to go where she wanted them. But the power of the altered spider bot form was intoxicating as she sent webbing flying at the two intruders.

She watched as the fuzor spawn lashed at it's net with it's tail, allowing the charged net to wrap around her body with only a minor twitching and the smell of burning flesh.

TM2 howled as he was webbed like his compatriot, snarling as the energized web started to tighten around his body. He struggled to focus despite the pain, lashing out with a streak of laser vision in the direction of their attack. It's wild an erratic, easy to dodge... but it's a wide enough swath that it makes it hard to keep the webbing out danger as well. Hopefully it will be enough to loosen their bonds.
