Sunstorm just shakes his head again at the effort to keep his cool, chuckling. "Alright then, it looks like we're ready to head back then Discord." He comments, looking her way. Ram Horn manages to push himself up before glaring at Sunstorm and the others again, grumbling to himself like a spoiled brat. "I don't see why we have to put up with this slag."

"Five creds says the bug hits on the cat girl." Discord said softly to Sunny as she set Clamp back on the ground. her wing cannons spun up for a moment to make it clear she was prepared to deal with them if they got roudey, then stilled. "Ok kiddies, either you're goign to have to behave while we carry you, or you tell us where a shuttle is parked and we take that."

Cicadacon started to open his mouth and then shut it rapidly. "One moment please." He ran to converse with his "brothers".

Ram Horn looks at Cicadacon for a moment before responding roughly but quietly. "What is it Cic? It's bad enough that dirtbag Slingshot buggered up our... 'medication'... but it's another thing entirely that we're being held at gun point. Tell me you have a plan."

"Brothers. Ever since our ancestors, the Decepticons, were defeated in the Great War, we Predacons have strives to-- Aw screw it. Here's the game plan: We all ride on the she-devil's back, and when we're alone with her we combine and fly away. We know this city inside and out. We hide and use the secret passages. If we can get back to our council chambers, we should be able to use our labs to reverse-engineer this enhancer-virus. And remember, hide rather than fight. If worse comes to worse..." Cicadacon shuddered. "If worse come to worse... go to the Maximals for help. Got that?" Ci looked at his brothers.

Ramhorn looks at Cicadacon for a few moments, taking in the game plan. On the top, it seems like a good idea... but there seems to be some possible go-wrongs. "Brother, I'm sure that Scaleblade and Prydefire are involved in this new cartel. Look at who caught us in the first place, his minion Smokescreen... as well as Scaleblade dropping us off here. Are you certain they will let us back into our labs? It already is Worse come to worse."

Ci seemed to clack his mandibles together a few times before clenching his fists. "I HATE maximals!" He yelled, basically throwing a temper tantrum. Without another word he walked back to Rhinox. "Take us to see Cheetor. Please." He asked, calmly yet resigned.

Rhinox, on the other hand, was asleep now.
"... I think he won't be getting up for awhile." Sea clamp said.

"Sunny, mind takeing one or two of them? Or know of a shuttle we can barrow?" Discord asked, guessing what the Tri Preds where likely planning. Pit, it would be what she'd do, and had done early in her carreer as a warlord.

SUnstorm nods for a moment before picking up Cicadacon swiftly. Glancing down at him, he can't help but smirk lightly and comment. "Cicada, considering the fact someone managed to replace your... pills... without you knowing... maybe you're looking at this the wrong way." He starts to follow after Discord calmly. "You and your brothers were old by the standards of even the Beast Wars.... if you return to your former ages you would still be elderly, and would potentially lose what power you had to begin with. Because all that someone would have to do is prove he did what he did... and people would know you were vulnerable. If you lie in wait and prepare over the next couple of years... by the the time you're teenagers, your enemy would potentially be the elderly one. After all, were not you and your brothers willing to wait years for the chance to take over cybertron in the past?" TM2 glances at Sunstorm, not quite sure what to make of what he's trying to do. Picking up Ramhorn, he walks over by discord and comments. "There's a shuttle of ours you can borrow, but it's a little bit of a walk away.... is he trying to help cybertron or help these guys? I can't tell."

Discord reaquired Clamp and padded after Sunny. When TM2 spoke she slowed her pace to let the dino pull even with her "Little of both I think. Dispite their faults, Tri Pred was a fairly stable governing body and held things together reasonably well. We'll need that stability again in the future. And growing up like this will give them a chance to see things with new eyes, and learn from two sets of mistakes."

""I have a better idea, why not let us rule now?" Sea clamp said.

Discord let out a barking laugh at that. "Shrimp, Where do i start? You're imature kids, you're more prone to thinking with your emotions then your heads, or with your little heads instead. No one will take you seriously, and one shot would blow you up."

"You interest me, firey-one. Continue speaking," Ci said, almost curling up. As much as he hated to admit it, he was tired and a nap sounded pleasing to him.

Sunstorm chuckles, holding Ci calmly and carefully for an old-school decepticon. If the others didn't know better, they might swear he has experience with kids. "Well, like I was saying... the tactical thing would be to lie in wait. Think about it... not only would you leave your enemy at a disadvantage when you're old enough to take on such duties again, you could build up your current reputation during thta time as well. The best kinds of leaders make people want to listen to them, not force them to out of fear... I know from experience. When you force others to act... resentment, anger grows within them over time. There's no guarantee of obedience, while if they want to listen to you... they're doing it because they trust you, and don't want to break any trust you have in them. Understand?" TM2 Dinobot, who's been listening to their conversation carefully.... glances over to discord for a moment with a smirk. "What do you think Discord, think we've found their adoptive parent at this point?" He replies with a chuckle as they continue to walk.
