Minerva lowers Cambreaker to the ground from the hoverstretcher. He frantically tries all his sensors, though none still function. He gives up and lies back when Minerva insists he let her work.

I'm feeling kinda stiff.... I must've lost too much mech fluid...

His eyes flicker once or twice, and he sees the fluid draining from his arm socket and where his waist was....

I don't know if I can make it, Minerva.... best you get out of here.

Minerva protests.

But you... you're.... hey... there's a big barrel of 'free oil' over there!


He weakly lifts an arm and points at the large, painted barrel, next to a large anvil from a Tagon Heights foundry

*As Rumble flies alongside Galvatron, he hesitates as if to ask him something. Galvatron picks up on Rumbles nervoiusness instantly.*

"OUT WITH IT RUMBLE!" He shouts as he swipes at the cassette bot with a backhand.

"Galvatron! What about the trap that we have left? With the price of a barrel of Oil so high right now, should we really leave it unattended?"

*Rumble flies a little further away from the Decepticon second in command, in case he lashes out again.*

I already took that thought into mind my little companion.
I rigged the release for the anvil so when the Oil is lifted, the anvil will drop! I'll come back later to view the damage done to any Autobot dumb enough to pick up the oil
MOOHOOHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAAAAA


Rumble sees that Galvatron is laughing so without hesitation, he also gives out a laughter to join him...

ummmmm, hahahahahha

Sideways walks up behind Minerva and Cambreaker. He surveys the area and notices the barrel of oil with a sign saying "Free Oil!" He chuckles a bit and turns to Minerva and Cambreaker.

Free Oil eh? Looks too good to be true. Something doesn't seem right. Haven't you ever seen those old Roadrunner cartoons?

OOC: sorry been away for a awhile due to work.

Doublecross wanders over having struck the post earlier.

'Oh free oil'

'Stay back idiot'

Doublecross ambles over to the oil tripping over the rope holding an anvil above it. It slams down on one of his heads, bouncing off nt the ground a short distance away.

'Ouch'

'What now?'

'I bit my tongue'

Well that solves that...

Minerva brings the oil back to Cambreaker and he taps into the drum. Before long, it is empty.

No wonder I was freezing up... I was almost 200 litres down! Alright. I appreciate your offer of help, Sideways, but I think we'll be fine here. I know Minerva can handle herself.
I need you to take Doublecross and go press the Decepticon fortress. Megatron and Liokaiser are probably distracted by Kup and the others. Call in the Aerialbots to take on the predators, and see if you two can get behind their defensive line and do some damage to their defenses or supply lines. Anything you can do to their fortress to stunt their offensive capability. I'll call Kup and the others and tell them to press the attack as long as casualties are low. Oh, and beware of Deszaras and Stalker... I know they (and probably some other smaller 'cons) will be behind the lines scheming something up. I won't be around to catch the next SCUD they launch! Sensors open and good luck!


Cambreaker winces as Minerva seals off a sensory duct in his shoulder.

No hurry... I'm staying here until this battle is over!

Minerva continues her work. Fortunately Cambreakers state is no longer lifethreatening, but due to the extensive damage this will take quite some time to repair fully.

Where's ratchet when you need him? She thinks.

Her thoughts drifts and suddenly she realizes something...

"Cambreaker? I don't think staying here until the battle is over is such a good idea. That 'free oil-thing' bothers me. That was obviously some kind of trap. What if the one who rigged it comes back to check it?"

She's got a point. I think it would be wise to move Cambreaker back to Iacon so he can rest without Decepticon interference.

If anyone's gonna sneak into the Decepticon fortress, it's gonna be me, alone. I don't need anyone giving away my position. But your health comes first. Once you're safe I'll worry about the Decepticons.

Cambreaker tries to sit up but fails for lack of legs.

I can't rest while this battle still needs coordinating! I understand if you want to work alone, then take the dragon with you and have him help Kup. If you're going IN the base, snagging some intel would be great... I'll crush Decepticons as long as I have to, but forcing an early surrender would save a lot of trouble. Go. I'll make sure we get back to Iacon ok.

He looks to Minerva, calms down and asks for his left arm.

Hand me my hand, please...


She hands it to him. He holds it against his shoulder and transforms that shoulder around the arm, forming the two front left wheels...

Now that I've got some oil in me, I can transform and drive myself, and if you could at least extend the wheels from my legs, I can tow them and throw the rest of the pieces in the truck bed. Then we'll head back to Iacon where you'll be safe.

Minerva looks at Cambreaker and raises an optic ridge.

"Sometimes you're just too stubborn for your own good.
Very well, we'll go to Iacon right away. Despite your condition it seems like a good solution".


She helps him extend the wheels, gathers the remaining parts and transforms herself.

"Okay, are you ready? If we're lucky we wont attract too much attention...
Sideways, maybe you could cover us for a bit, just in case?"

Sideways Transforms into his jet mode and hovers above the two.

Ready when you are.

Cambreaker transforms his upper half the rest of the way.

Alright... Let's drop clutch.

Cambreaker revs and laboriously puts it into gear, dragging his primary drive wheels behind him.

"We're ready, Sideways".

Minerva and Cambreaker drives off, while the airborne Sideways keeps an optic on their surroundings.

Despite the short distance to Iacon the trip takes quite some time. Fortunately no decepticons seems to have noticed them.

Upon arrival Cambreaker is clearly exhausted.
Minerva transforms and helps Cambreaker do the same.

"Are you all right, Cambreaker?" She asks, concerned.

Cambreaker smiles weakly in reply. "I'll be fine" he says.

Minerva turns to Sideways who has landed and transformed beside them.
"Thanks, Sideways, I think we'll manage from here on".

Sideways nods and eyes Cambreaker.

You get better, Cambreaker. I'll keep in touch. Now off to my duties.

Sideways turns away from the duo and transforms back into his jet mode. He hovers for a minute before kicking in his afterburners and jetting from Iacon, climbing to a normal altitude before disappearing completly.

after leaving his Training Course with his new "go cart" made of Wheelie parts... Galvatron notices that his trap has went off....

He looks around the fallen anvil and sees that there is no evidence of dead Autobots around.

He lifts up the anvil hoping he at least killed a mini-con

NOTHING!!! The Autobot got away!!

Looking towards the sky, he yells out

I'LL GET YOU CAMBREAKER!!!!!
I'LL GET YOU!!!!!!!

While running in circles, screaming at the sky, Galvatron slips in a little pool of oil that ran out of the empty barrel. The barrel has a big, Cambreaker-sized handprint dented in it.

After slipping on the oil and banging his head on the anvil, Galvtron sits up and looks at the empty barrel
Galvatron uses his optic scanners to investigate the barrel's large hand print...

*Rumble dials the number for TFTS (TransFormerTaxiServices). There is a slight delay as the phone connects, then it begins to ring. Soon after, a bot answers the call.*

"Transformer Taxis, how can I help."

"Err Hi, listen, me and my friend here need a taxi pretty quick, we are outside the Energon bar."

"Ok, will be with you shortly, can I take a name please?"

"Errr.... It's Mike.... Mike rotch..."

"Ok Mr Rotch, please stand by."

*there is a click as the phone hangs up. Rumble turns back to face Dirge who attacks him with the steam iron, putting a slightly wonkey Autobot patch over his decepticon badge.*

"Ow hey careful!"
