"Something doesn't add up." Was the one statement it took for Leadfoot to silence the others in the room. It was the weekly strategem session started between those members of the Neo-Autobot crew who had experience in the Great War, whether it was as a con, a bot, or a NAIL. With so many members of Czar's crew identified as seeming ressurections of casualties of that War, it seemed like the best way of pooling resources.
The seemingly half-dead looking former on the opposite side of the room cocked an eyeridge at this. Skullgrin seemed intriqued by this sudden revelation, noting it was the first time Leadfoot had taken interest in the proceedings. "Well Leadfoot... you have our attention." She cautiously responded. "Is it where this unknown kid managed to find so many of our kind to bring back to life?" She asked when he continued to pause.
Leadfoot shook his head. "Primus knows there has been a record of many of our kind to be believed dead when they were... taken." He makes a nod in Cold Fillet's direction, remembering his stories of being found by the Necrobot. "But that's not the thing that comes to mind... it's the change in roster. More and more of their new recruits appear to be Seacons. Stronghug is the first sign we've seen that they've likely been... made that way. But Halfshell is a pirate captain, always was. He's not a scientist, never was. We could say it's the records we have from the Rangers of the exhancer transport accident... but then why did they not share the same infectious properties?"
Skullgrin considered the situation before nodding. "True... And we haven't seen the kid Czar in cycles. You thinking there may have been a coup? Would explain the change from fightng us to actively scavenging supplies..." She surmised. "Reminds me of that crazy frenzy that led to yours, Manta Ray, and Road Hog's creations back in the day... we're not the main target."
Leadfoot nods. "Yes, but more then that... there's an outside force to the coup. I'm sure of it. We haven't seen the source of the Seacons, unless anyone else has any theories on it... And there's something familiar about them..." He subconsciously, almost unknowingly starts rubbing his neck for some reason. "But I'm open to other theories on the subject."
