Dirge was knocked back by the first strike of his metallic opponent, shaking his head as he tried to remove the stars from his point of view. He would have been wide open for further attack if not for the strikes of what appeared to be... Starscream?! If things were not confusing enough, it appeared someone actually tried to imitate their council's pain in the ass. ~What a Slagging idiot.~ Was the mental response in Dirge's head as he managed to clear his line of sight. Seeing the imposter turn his cannons on their real pain in the ass, Dirge did the only thing he could think of, darting forward and wrapping one arm around his opponent's neck while raking across his face with the other hand's set of claws. "Not in my house." He growls.

The egotistical bird couldn't believe this mech! Surely he didn't think he was the real deal! As Starscream proved why he was once Megatron's second-in-command by swooping out of the way of the nullrays. That was so it! This hack was even using his own weapons against him! Fortunately it seemed that Dirge was smart enough to know who was who and was attacking this Fragger from behind. Starscream came down to deliver his own punishment with a good sparkrend, one of his little "gifts" from the Oracle through his connection to Skyfire. He was about to deliver a witty remark to the impostor about not being handsome enough to be in his old shell when he saw Dirge about to rack his claws along his perfectly, handsome face! "Dirge! No! Not the face!!" He screeched vainly.

The imposter felt the arm around his neck and the claws digging into his face and hearing Dirge growl saying not his house.
Taking one arm and slamming it backwards into Dirge’s midsection, “I don’t think traitor when I’m done with you there will be little left of you.”
The fake Starscream saw the falcon bot diving down towards him with a screech and talons out about to deliver the next blow then he heard the falcon say to Dirge not to ruin its face.
More or less for Starscream’s part it was perfect timing raising his left arm firing his knollray’s at the falcon, "Thanks for the heads up!" fake Starscream said taking his one leg bringing is up backwards and slamming his heel right into the old family jewels, not waiting to see if Dirge would let go.
Quickly moving his arm and up and reaching from behind grabbing free arm and flipping Dirge over his shoulder. The fake Starscream fires his knollray’s at Dirge then he takes off to the air flipping back to his jet mode firing his weapon at Starscream, “how about a game of chicken scrap heap?” fake Starscream called for BB telling BB to attack the falcon bot from behind.
BB got the message from the fake Starscream and flew off to his partner in crime, BB banked hard to the left and he attacked the falcon bot from behind quickly going in for another round firing his weapons at the falcon.

Unbeknowest to the participants in the melee, they have a spectator fifty miles above them. And a targeting system trained on the Jet former and the fake Starscream. A lone Jetstorm drone in a deep purple and green paint job was watching the action with slight amusement and disappointment. Maybe it had more with the fact that there's another Starscream running around Cybertron. How many of that treacherous Decepticon does this planet needs anyways? One of them is bad enough. <<Blast-Off, do have the target?>> A slightly British voice on other line of Blast-Off's internal communication system cracked into life. "Yes, fearless leader. I got the pretender and his lapdog in my sights. Ready to get into action when needed." Blast-Off responded as he activates his weapon system.
<<While we at it, why don't we take out the real one? Nobody won't be the wiser!AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!>> Insane laughter could be heard on the other end. It was loud, Blast-Off flinched. The jet bot barked "Not so loud,idiot!"
The other voice quickly responded <<Vortex,,ot so loud. Target BB and the pretender. ONLY the pretender.>> The other bot emphasized that part to be sure his troops don't get the idea of trying to off the falcon Starscream. There was a little nagging suspicion that he wanted to issue that order himself so badly, but he put that thought away. He and his team owe him so much to the former Decepticon second commander. That fact alone disgust him. Oh well, time to head to work. <<Blast-Off, you got the pretender. Vortex, you get the pretender's dance partner. Brawl will provide backup as needed. Get into position.>> Blast-Off activated his weapon system and targets the fake Starscream. "We should have made the kids do this." Blast-Off sighed with boredom.
<<Blast-Off, cancel the pretender's flight.>>The voice calmly commanded the jet bot. Blast Off begins to fire some energy blasts at the fake Starscream. Some of the plasma blasts narrowly missed the real Starscream.
<<Vortex, you're up.>> A modified Grey and Black copter came out of behind of a building and starts to open fire on BB with a few burst of his chaingun. Vortex was laughing while firing upon BB.

Fin let out a growl as his knee gave out again and the fliers did what they did best: got out of his reach. "Slagging lily livered coward!" he yelled as he struggled back to his feet.
He blinked as new lines of fire sprang up and began hammering into the fliers. "Ok, did someone call in back up, or do we have poachers?"

Dirge howls as he's knocked back by the elbow, bouncing away from the mechanical mech. Clutching his chest, he calls out to Starscream weakly for a moment. "It's some kind of cybertronian knock-off Starscream, I didn't think you'd want such cheap metal!" All and all, he's starting to pump out vibrations again, focusing them on the 'fake screamer' in an attempt to piss him off. For a fake he still had the attitude problems his fellow seeker had and Dirge hoped to set off his ego, giving his fellow council member another open shot at the fiend. His attention however was distracted by the oncoming fire as he blinked, diving behind a piece of equipment as the Combaticons came onto the attack. It figures all this destruction would get their attention sooner or later. "Screamer, get your unit in order before they blow us all to kingdom come!" Came his next words.

Fake Starscream dogded the fire blasts from Blastoff he opens fire on Blastoff.
BB dogdes the fired rounds at him banking hard to the right and quickly comes around behind Vortex and fires a couple well aimed rounds at Vortex's engines
Fake Starscream cacles evilly hearing hearing Dirge yowl and hit the ground, hearing Dirge say something to the real Starscream about cheap metal he was about to answer when he felt the vibes coming from Dirge.
He lifted his free arm up without looking knowing where Dirge was fires off a couple rounds at the tratior, "stay down and out of my way fool!" fake Starscream barked at Dirge.
He also dogde another fired round from Dirge, hearing Dirge again say something to the real Starscream to get groupl together and in order before the whole place was destroyed.
Fake Starscream cackled even more yelling into his comm link C> Combaticons elimate both the falcon transformer he is the real enemy and take out the tratior Dirge while you are at it.
He continued to fire at Blastoff and open fire on th real Starscream.

Starscream almost saw cause for concern when he was pinned between his double and BB as he couldn't maneuver as fas as he'd like to in this form. As a result he missed the bulk of Dirge's statement. Fortunately he was saved when his Combaticons arrived, plasma blasts narrowly missing him. "Blastoff! Watch were your aiming! You almost hit me!" He screeched frantically, always having something to complain about. The real Starscream carefully swooped in closer to his impostor taking on the form of his original body. Some of his tail feathers got a little singed from the fake scream, but he needed to end this now or the entire Council building might come down. Normally this was a minor thing, but he was likely to be blamed for it and well... that was not ok.
Once close enough Starscream attempted a "spark extract," One of the abilities gifted to him through the oracle that allowed him to remove a spark from a shell. "Get Out Of My Body!" The falcon screeched upon using the ability.

ooc: Apologies for the next part, Trying to keep Black Zarak a background character but also trying to think how evil he'd be in what he put into his minions and all. Gotta expect screamer to go after a screamer after all, eh? bic: While at first Starscream's attempts start to snag a whiff of... something close enough to spark energy, whatever is going on in the systems of his imposter counterpart starts to tug back in a tug of war fashion. It's almost as if there was a void where the alternate screamer's spark would be... a taint that reminds Starscream much of the presence left by Unicron's previous minions. This body might become his...but there's that startling chance it might alter him as well. ; Dirge meanwhile dives away from his hiding place as the fake starscream opens fire on it, splitting the structure in half. He can't help but curse to himself as he hears the orders over the line, knowing full well they might just take him up on the offer. After all, who could blame them for 'making' the same mistake he did? "We definitely need an evac." He half mutters, half yells to finback and Starscream. "They both have too much clearance on this level, Screamer, you're the only one who can matc their movements here."

"Understood." Fin barked as he bounded forward, blasts striking his armor as he went from bit of cover to bit of cover. "Dis is gonna hurt i just know it."

ooc: Combaticons are NPC for rest of duration of thread. No more delay. bic: Vortex took to the air rapidly as BB turned his attention the copter bot's way. This bot was good, whoever he is and Vortex doesn't feel like taking a dive. More fire came down towards the larger bot from the air as Vortex prepared to transform into robot mode. Worse comes to worse, he'll just fall on the bot and cleave it twain to twain with his blades. Blast-off meanwhile just charged through the blasts being fired at him, taking the damage. By the time his engines were taken out, he'd managed to get enough momentum to transform into bot mode and tackle both Starscreams to the ground. He didn't know which to believe considering what a treacherous bot Starscream was... so he'd just take them both down. "Stay Down." He growled under his visor, even as his arms switched to blasters.

The fake Starscream continued to fire at Dirge for a moment longer and then turned his attention to the other Starscream as he fired on the other Sreamer
When the real Starscream had yell something about getting out of the body grinning slily and very evilly the fake Screamer looks towards the other Starscream, "you can't run nor can you hide you will be mine for the taking!" the fake Screamer cackled evilly as he fired another volley at the other Screamer.
Not paying attention to the others bots around from his group, Blast-off came into view more or less pinned both Starscream's tot he ground and telling him to say down.
There was no way the fake Screamer was going to stay down not by along shot moving his left arm out enough for a clear shot at Blast-off he fires off a round at Blast-off's midsection using his privet channel he tells BB to come in from behind and attack.
BB scowled as Vortex had more or less gave him the slip and attacked, flipping around BB saw that both Starscream's had bee pinned down knowing the fake Screamer he dove down opened fire on Blast-off and then fired a fired a couple of rounds at the real Starscream baking off to the left then right got back in line and dove in for another round.

Fin started to move, but debris kicked up slammed into one of his wounds and sent a surge through his body, dropping him to the ground.
"Oww..." he groaned as he shifted, involuntarily to his best form.
((Sorry, major writers block for Finny, but didn't want to hold things up.))

The strange sensation did not deter the arrogant seeker, if some half-drone-pit-spawn of an impostor could manipulate this shell, that meant he could. Though that wasn't his intention, the council member was attempting to remove this "Starscream" as a threat to his future plans. The birdformer barely heard Dirge as he focused on continuing to try to pull the spark from the fake. This was short lived when Vortex crashed them both to the ground. "Vortex, you fool! Get off me! I nearly had him!" Starscream shrieked angrily. "Aim for the ones attacking US!" He chided the copter as he moved as best he could to avoid the fire coming at him ad return it to both BB and his impostor.

The fake Screamer grinned evilly to himself seeing the arrogent fool real Starscream try to extract the spark from within the fake Screamer and the real scream can try all he like for it will do no good for there is no spark within the fake Screamer just empty space a void of darkness.
The fake Screamer could tell that something was worrying the real Starscreamer like that he was trying to shake off something or better yet trying to get rid of something like a threat and the real Screamer was trying to rid a parasite from exsitance, this made the fake one grin even more.
Hearing the real Screamer tell Vortex to get off him and that he nealry had the imposer, chuckling to himself, also hearing the real Screamer say to Vortex to fire at the fake BB and the imposer seeing that the real screamer managed to fire at him, he moved enough to avoid the blast only getting minor straches on the paint job, "Vortex I'm the real Starscream and the other is the imposer blast the imposer," the fake screamer said cooly. BB avoided the blast from the real screamer and dove down and fired at the real Starscream and quickly moved away and regrouped and came in for another attack.
