"Good. This whole evening have been a slaggin wash! Not to mention, I pretty much slagged up my relationship with one of my best...."Ripoff stop talking for a moment and replayed what Slipstream said. Daughter? Grandfather? Blast Off's mother have been a source of speculation within his team. He pressed the elder Combaticons for answers, only for them to be rebuffed or being told don't look into it further. Some of his teammates, went to the elder Blast Off for answers. He just shrugged and said something along the lines it's not worth mentioning. He would slip in a line that his baby mama "was a beast" and would rather be dipped in acid again than deal with her again. His optics widened in shock. "YOU'RE BLASTOFF'S MOM?!" he shouted in surprised. "ACTUALLY BLASTOFFs MOM?!"
"Great, you found Blastoff's mama" she told the two of them as she was straining herself to keep the lizard men restrained. "Now get back to shooting those things! I can't keep this up for ever!"
**********
"Crap, crap, crap, crap!" Narkaru hissed to himself as he slowly crawl through the vents while trying to ignore that plasma wound. "We should have brought Hex and Dualcast for this." He told himself. The young ninja gasped in pain as his injury starts to react. Not only being shot, this is the second time their mission is going pear shaped at breakneck speed. When the slag this simple mission became a problem? They were suppose to be going after the others by now, not still dealing with a low-rank mob boss. Correction, a low rank mob boss who gotten his hands on Insecticon technology. That and he's going have to hear his friend's bitching again. He's injured and you can't do much with a injured ninja. <<Hey, Arms! Hit a snag while trying to get some sushi. Got popped. Heading over to the meeting point.>> Narkaru PMed his friend <<See ya there!>> "Could anything get worse?" He told himself. He than saw a stream of bluish-white energy cut through the vent. And it was close enough for him to see it. "Oh come on!" That what he said when he started to hear weapon fire starting to cut through the vent. "Why do you hate me so much for, Primus?" He told himself as he starts to crawl faster to escape the approaching enemy fire. <<Scratch that! I need backup!>> More ammunition and energy blasts can be heard coming closer. <<FAST!>>
************************* Armorhide opened fired when Samus Unit moved a little. He stepped back as he open fire on the Samus Unit in a attempt to give himself some distance between him and the energy drainer. That bomb that seemingly came out of nowhere helped out a lot. What were those things? These can't be a fellow Cybertronian. He got a PM from his friend. He responded <<Roger. I just need to finish something up>> He than gets another PM from Narkaru saying he needs backup. Slag it. It means things went south for him as usual. <<Hold your position, dude! Gimme your location.>>He PM-ed while continuing to fire upon the Samus unit.
************************ "Did it work?" SBJ asked his friend "It sounded like it work." He than heard some gunshots that caused him to jump a little. Wondering who was their savior, SBJ crawled over to the edge of the bar and took at peak around the corner. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. "Delta! Get over here, quick!" he called out to him in a hushed tone. "You're going to believe who's here!"

Slipstream continued firing on the remaining lizardmen. "I've been a lot of people's carriers Ripoff, as your friend said can we please focus on the moment on hand?" She responded with a spiteful tone. "I don't feel like I need to explain myself, I didn't when I left Dead End." She growled, before realizing what she had said out of anger. This kid was going to ruin her life, she just knew it was the thoughts coursing through her mind as she sped up her shots. ************************* Hearing Naraku over the radio, Outpace looked around weakly from her vantage point. There wasn't much she could do, especially in her current state but distract. Picking up a bottle from nearby, she threw it weakly further down the bar where it fell with a crash. Some of the Piranhacons targetting their leader changed targets, firing in the direction of the noise for safe keeping. It may not be much, but it's at least a lessening of Naraku's danger. ************************* Armorhide's continued assault seems to have finished the abomination before him as Samus stumbles forward, bubbling out half understandable threads of revenge as her body finally loses cohesion. It quickly falls and breaks apart, leaving a heavily damaged insectoid shell in it's wake. At any luck it shouldn't be getting back up, but the fact it seemed to -think- it would with the calls for revenge leave a shiver on the larger bot's frame. ******************* Delta raised an eyeridge before moving over to SBJ's position. He was slow and careful, keeping out of sight until he arrived next to the wayward warrior child. "What is it son?" He asks for a moment, before looking over the counter curiously. "Did the police finally arrive to deal with these riffraff?"

Diva observed of what Slipstream told Ripoff. Not only is she's Blastoff's mom, she might be her teammates' mom as well. She, hell, neither of her teammates and her elders outside of Dead End and possibly Wildrider, when he's having his moment of clarity, knew the identity of Deathwish's and Suicidewatch's coder. But now....."Dead End? Coder?!" Diva she whispered, shocked at the turn of events. She was so taken back by the revelation, her gravity field weakened a little. This caused some of the lizardmen to be free. This was so much to take right now. Shooting now moving and attacking lizardman wasn't helping matters neither.
Ripoff exclaimed when she realized that some of his target were free. "What the pit, Diva?! Focus on the walking boots, than we can dish about that later!" She went out with the permanently depressed Raven bot? And she might be the Ravenbot twins' coder? This was more than he can handle right now? One of the lizardmen came after him. The arms dealer just causally just shoot it in the face. He's starting to wonder if this is worth it. Well for his friend, it is. Truth be told, he wants to know what happened to Data himself. He does want to know about his coder and everything about his team, hell, they earned the right to know. But, something this just feels completely off. What kind of box is he going to unlock once he gets it? He's starting to regret making that deal with Slipstream now and he doesn't have any regrets. He doesn't show it however though. He just hope it's the answers Diva seeks. ****************************** Armorhide holster his guns while staring in complete shock at what just happen. What the pit he just slagged? And there's might be more of them out there? He was a little bit unnerved that it wants revenge on him than anything. He doesn't know if his guns were enough to to bring it down. Just in case it wasn't, he pulls a missile out of his chest compartment and timed it. Before he plants the missile, he takes a couple of pictures and sends it over to Gravestone,Sindel, and the other scientists back at base. He than tosses the makeshift grenade towards the corpse. He than sees Outpace and quickly goes to her. Guilt starts to wash over him. "I'm sorry, 'Pace. I'm so slaggin sorry I couldn't come on time. I'm really am." Armorhide apologizes "I wish I was fast enough to get to you. I'm really sorry!" He picks her up and starts to carry her. `Some partner I turned out to be." he thought to himself. Armorhide carries his partner off before the missile blows.
<<Narkaru, meet me at the vantage point.>> The young Decepticon IMed his partner. He's hoping the big explosion would be enough for him to escape. He's really hoping the missile would do the job. A distraction and corpse disposal. A bit much, but he doesn't have the time or the energy to deal with...whatever it was right now. If he's lucky, maybe take out some of the clones too. He's angry at his partner for going off on his own and messing up their opportunity to take down Piranhacon once and for all and scratch his name off their list. Not because they let him lived and let him have the Insecticon technology, he has a new crew and they're lot tougher than the usual ones. Not to mention they're not Cybertronians. He and Narkaru might have to look into it when they have the time. He's also worried about Outpace and the condition she's in. He's guilty he hasn't made it in time. She's alive Worse for wear, but she's alive. He also blame himself for not getting Hex in on the mission. They think him, Narkaru and Outpace can do this mission without a hitch. Yeah. Look how it turns out. But right now, getting Outpace out is top priority. That and he has about 50% or less ammo left.
********************************* SBJ points to Armorhide. "That's one of the Neo Decepticons! What the pit is he doing here?!" he asked in shock "Does he have the others with him?!" SBJ was starting to panic. He couldn't believe the bot he punched with his transector with one time. "Oh dear Primus! I'm not ready for this! Not again, not again! I was just starting to forget about this crap! Father protect meeeeee!" He wasn't ready to fight right now. Or ever.

Slipstream grabbed a grenade from a nearby desk, angry at how much she's let out about her past. This was what children did to her, get her to talk, get her to open her mouth. It was a frustrating affair in the least. Still, they had killed enough of the ambush that a simple grenade would finish off the rest. She pulls the pin, throwing it ally oop into the center of the clustered mass, even as Diva's gravity field slips it into the center of the mass. "Talk later, move now." She spat out, slinging her rifle over her shoulder even as the grenade pulped what remained of the creatures under Diva's hold. ************************************* "Naraku... help Naraku..." Outpace sputtered, too weak to even focus on the situation as Armorhide slings her over his shoulder. Instinctively she grabs onto him, trying to stabilize herself through their shared connection. It's just enough to allow her to slip into calm stasis lock without any problems, but it's still alarming to see her this weak and feeble. Especially with Armorhide's memories of the giant ass former she had been before she'd pledge allegiance to him, she was the -exact- opposite at this moment. As his missile explodes, it manages to drive the remaining Piranhacon clones into a retreat. They've finally had enough to do with this shit and there's no point in remaining to deal with the fuzz. One of them does take the time to flip Armorhide the bird as they leave. ************************************** Delta frowned, staring at the fleeing turtle former before pulling Sky Byte Jr down to safety and out of sight. There was no way the pair of them could take down the musclebound thug at this point and he promised to protect his coworker. "I believe it is, but he has more important plans it seems then wasting us lad." He responded quietly and calmly to the shark-deer fuzor, attempting to hold him comfortingly to calm him down. Whatever these Neo Decepticons had done to the boy must have been extreme, to change from the willing warrior to the stressed youth before him.

Diva weakly follows Slipstream while Ripoff was guarding them from behind and shoot at any remaining lizardmen that decided to follow. They were still in shock of what the femme revealed to them. They finally meet Deadend's Ex and the twins' coder. Ripoff Imed Diva while being on the watch <<Okay, now we got that out of the way, girlfriend, now let's talk about what the Pit just happened just than. I'm starting to think I would have settle for creds. Not to mention I might be part Stunticon!>>
<<I know. I'm still reeling from that myself.>> Diva replied back <<Makes you wonder what else she's hidin. I hope that information is reliable. But still....she's actually the twins' coder? What the Pit did we walk into?>>
<<You're forgetting that she's also MY coder as well. Or at least one of them.>> Ripoff replied. <<As long we're both getting what we want.>> Ripoff immediately headshots a approaching lizardman when it got to close to them. <<I don't know what the Pit we walked into....>>
<<Be honest, hun. You always wanted to know who was Onslaught's coder was, didn't you?>> The Cheetah-Gecko pinged him back <<Do you ever wonder where most of y'all came from?>> Ripoff chuckled at that response as he headshot a lizardman. <<Touche, girlfriend.>>
********************* Satisfied that he managed to make the clones take a tactical retreat and possibly taking some of them out and destroying....whatever it was, Armorhide scoops up Outpace and proceeds to the exit. He wasn't happy how this mission went though. He makes a mental note of not doing something like this again. Pretty soon, someone is going to notice them. They've been lucky so far that nobody noticed them yet. "Com'on, Pace. You did great." He quietly whispered to her. "Let's go home." ~Czar is not going to like this one bit.~He thought to himself.
********************** Skybyte JR was still hurdled in the corner, fearing the giant turtle. He somehow came across some of the alcohol that wasn't destroyed, starts to greedily drink it.

Slipstream spoke up. "I am not your coder Ripoff... I was merely under your grandfather's influence when he came up with the idea of you." She explains calm as they continue to head down the tunnel, leaving it plain in no uncertain way that she was aware of their conversation. "Dead End managed to pull me away from that influence... but he could no less influence me no matter how much he tried not to. I had to leave, that isn't an excuse... that is the facts." She added. "You can think of me what you want, but I am no one's toy, no matter how much Starscream wanted one of his own." ***** Outpace nodded, holding onto him silently for lack of energy to do much more. This had been a mess and she barely managed to make it out alive. There wasn't much more she could do at this time. ***** Delta continued to try to calm the young shark bot, but he didn't stop him from drinking. It may be what he needed more then his attention after all.

Ripoff quipped "Thanks for clearing that up for us, scary lady. That would have been something to really talk about." Diva went through what Slipstream has said. Yes, she doesn't owe anybody any explanation for her actions as to why she does things she did. And yes, she doesn't want to be Starscream's puppet. Who doesn't though? But it was the way she talked about her uncle. She couldn't tell but she sounded....sad. Or at least how things ended between them. She wondered what was their relationship like. She seems the type to keep everything close to the spark she thought. But this is neither here or now. Ripoff spatted when Slipstream "Amen, sister, even though is a little late for me. Been his toy since the day I came out of the stasis pod. Correction, me and my squad been his toys since we came online."
Diva spoke."Amen, sisters, a-slaggin-men." She hopes whatever Slipstream has on Data is worth the trouble. She lightly rubs her stomach. Soon her family will be reunited and she'll get the answers she needs.
***************************** *Hic* *Hic* "Okayish, Del....Del..DelTA! Let's nail that motherfucker....*Hic*" SBJ announced loudly while trying to get up. "Let's get him for messing with us. *Hic* FOR THE NEO AUTOBOTS!" He than belches and runs out of his hiding place.

Slipstream seems to pause a moment as Ripoff spatted back, as if considering something. "Only a few of your teammates came out of a stasis pod Ripoff. Of those who didn't..." She frowns for a moment again before turning to him and placing a hand on his forehead. It was a small favor, but if anyone could destroy Starscream's Brigade... it would be their talker. Ripoff's vision goes white for a moment as Slipstream hacks into his memory banks and bringing forth a long forgotten memory from his budding... it's weak, not detailed, he was only a newborn sparkling... but he remembers being held in a loving nature by a femme bot, before a dark shadow comes over them both. "You were not a toy Ripoff. You were a stolen future." ************** Delta blinked for a moment before chasing after his young friend. "Junior, wait! They are gone and you will only provoke the authorities!" He calls out, even as the sound of Autotroopers heading into the building echoed from the entrance. This was not a good thing to happen, not at all.

Armorhide was walking quietly with Outpace in his arms, mentally cursing how their mission wound up as a failure (Again!) and their target escaping them (Again!). Not to mention, his partner/best friend made everything worse. All he wants to do right now is to get Outpace to a CR chamber, rest and forget all of this has happened. He than hear sirens. Armorhide groans in annoyance. "Great." he simply said while making his way to the front door. Than SBJ came out of his hiding spot, staggering and holding a bottle of half drunk liquor. The Shark-deer slurred "Heeeeyyyyyyyy you....*Hic* Yeah you." The giant youth just stopped in his tracks and turns to see a drunk Skybyte JR staggering towards him and Outpace. He just "Yeah you, you big stupid turtle...*Hic* Yeah you you...you jerk!" he called out to him, staggering towards him. "Remember me, big...*hic*...guy? Not so big now are you..." Armorhide just stared at him in bewilderment. He couldn't believe the major gall this bot had. The drunk Shark-deer fuzor managed to get close to him at eye level. Or in this case, lower abdomen level. Skybyte Jr. continued to rant while Armorhide was holding his injured partner, trying to make sense of just what happend.
Skybyte Jr than step away from him and get into a sloppy fighting position. "For the.....errrr slag you and your friends did, I'ma going to take you down," Skybyte Jr slurred "FOR THE NEO AUTOBOTS!"
"I don't have time for this." Armorhide simply said, in quiet annoyance.
*************************** Five seconds later, a airborne Skybyte Jr crashed through the window and tagged one of the Autotroopers.
***************************
"There. Sorted." Armorhide told himself while he tries to get Outpace into a comfortable position. <<What the pit, dude?! We need to get out of here! The fuzz is on their way!>> Narkaru shouted over his commlink. <<Okay, man. Prepare to bail.>> Armorhide replied back. He than embarks for the back.
