You know what Rat, I think thats a great idea. We should let Snarl get some rest. She's ingested alot of energon. Wait till the hangover in the morning! I dont want to be here for that. Dinobot and Rattrap let out a little laughter as they exit the bar.

Blackjack watches the two younger bots run off and wonders if they'll remember to put in the sequence of colors correctly. It had taken him about a dozen megacycles to figure it out the first time, so he didn't really expect anything. They continued without interruption for a moment, but were then interrupted by the green fembot. Blackjack decided that he should let Cambreaker handle this one. Although, there was something about this fembot. He just had to scan her with his optics one more time.

Cambreaker smiles and glances sideways to Blackjack, hoping he can use his surface thought scanners to determine her truthfulness. He steps forward to the timid 'bot, and offers his good hand

In that case, welcome aboard the Ætherspite. I'm Cambreaker. This is Minerva, and Blackjack... my right-hand bots. I'm guessing you overheard our meeting from here. What's your name, recruit?

The emergency has happened. We've lost Cybertron entirely. Let's get you registered into security...
Cambreaker taps a few keys on the nearest wall console, and the ship scan's Swift's schematics and registers her.
Why don't you come with us for a bit, have a drink, and we'll get to know each other, aye?
Cambreaker looks to his comrades for approval

Snarl's going to have a dino sized migraine, hopefully there will be something left of the bar after painful awakening. I'm going to go see if I can make some progress on this idea of mine before the energon wears off. I'll catch up with you in a couple breems.

Rattrap makes his way through the winding corridors of the Aetherspite back to his quarters. He plugs a wire from the ship into his head and starts scanning through the ship's inventory, picking and choosing parts that he would need later. He slowly develops the basic schematics for the modified ship.

The Aetherspite's shuttles are way too small for what we need.

Rattrap scans the ships database for a larger base for his stealth ship and finds a simple solution. He smiles as he plans out the final modifications for the stealth ship.

Minerva takes a step forward and holds out her hand to greet the new 'bot.

Nice to meet you, she says with a smile as she shakes Swifts hand.

"Thanks. Nice to meet ya." *Shakes Minerva's hand back.* "Name's Swift by the way in case you didn't hear." *Swift's shyness was starting to lift a bit, but not fully.*

Cambreaker and the three 'bots start to walk back to his chambers, talking as they go.

So what's your specialty, Swift? You mentioned fighting skill, but I'm curious as to what you'd enjoy contributing here between battles.

The throtlebots look at the tapes in shock!!

Well atleast Cliffjumper pulled us out in time and didnt leave us behind. Lets see if we can find the bar to get a drink my processor is overloaded

The group of throtlebots get up and head to the bar just to find a sleeping Slag there.

"Well, my two main top qualities are speed and strength. So anything fitting those standards." *She smiled scyting out a twin-bladded scyth from her left forearm and lightly tapping it.* "Do you mind if I ask you where we are right now?" *Retracts her left scyths.*

Dinobot enters into the cargo hold on the other end away from Clffjumper and the other bots tending to the tank. Talking to himself yet again, Hmmm, I wonder what kind of stuff we could make here? Well, since the rat is digging up his own stuff, I might as well try my hand at some weapons to go along with his ship.

Not to...eh...interrupt or anything Cammy, but I've got some things I'd like to attend to. I thought you was callin' us to a special private meetin' or something and now that you're draggin' this new recruit along I'm not so sure about how private it'll be. So I'm goin' back to my quarters. You can find me there if you've got somethin' you need to discuss.

Blackjack turns away from the group without giving another glance at Swift. He turns the corner and shakes his head.

That one is trouble, I can tell. Army? What's she talkin' about? We're the only army left around here. That and she's pretty good at coverin' up her surface thoughts.

Give the girl a chance, Blackjack. I agree with you that her responses were a little strange, but you're not the most well known Autobot either.

You're right. I think I'm just tired. I'll feel a lot betta once we finish talkin' about what we're gonna do.

We both will old friend, we both will.

On a private comm whisper to Blackjack

Sorry old friend, gotta grill this one for a while. Don't want any insiders aboard. I'll call you a little later.


To Swift, who just sees him nod at Blackjack

We should be somewhere in transwarp space between Cybertron and our destination. Due to the major security breaches that caused the fall of Iacon, I'm not discussing our destinations before we're out of transwarp, just in case there's another informer aboard. Though... if you don't mind...

Cambreaker feels the blaster hole in his back, his hand comes back covered in fluid again. Stupid cheap duct tape.

I still have a few wounds I should tend to. If you like, I can have you quartered. In the meanwhile, you could go down to the bar and introduce yourself to some of your new teammates.

Cambreaker shows her how the wall consoles work, to light her way to the bar, and later to her quarters. He then bids goodbye, and continues down the hall beside Minerva, weakening quickly due to his yet untended wounds.

As the Throtlebots ponder the logs they just saw of Arcee and Rodumis takeing all 5 of them out when back on Iacon (I pmed Arcee asking for permision to use them to cause my laps during my vacation) they sit far away from the snoring Snarl [color=darkred(who I mad a mistake and called slag before I went to work)[/color] they slam down energon shot after energon shot till one buy one they pass out and leave Goldbug alone.

Speaking aloud to basically noone I wonder what in Primus made them turn like that slams another energon shot Now we are lost in space not knowing who to trust and not to trust another shot and stairs off into space again thinking............

As Blackjack and then Swift leaves, Minerva looks at Cambreaker and sees him noticeably weaker.

Alright, I think it's time I had a look at your injuries before you fall into a stasis lock.


She grabs his arm and leads him down the corridor.

* Snarl wakes up *
" WHY WHOLE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN ? "
* Wriggles and twists till he is the right way up *
" ME SNARL GOT BIG HEADACHE, ME SNARL DIZZY, ME SNARL WONDER WHERE LEADER DINOBOT IS "
* Sees GB and the throttlebots and staggers over to them *
" ME SNARL SAY YOU STOP HEADACHE "
* Lashes out with his tail and smashes the table to pieces, sending the throttlebots flying *
" ME SNARL GOT BIIIIIIIIG HEADACHE "
* Staggers out of the bar and sees an comm on the wall, transforms and shouts into it *
" ME SNARL GOT HEADACHE, WHERE LEADER DINOBOT "
* Which sounds all over the ship, he then transforms to dino mode and goes staggering towards the bridge shouting *
" ME SNARL GOT HEADACHE "

Cambreaker stumbles into his quarters, closing the doors behind them.

But before I waste CR energy, I'm getting rid of all this crap... Mind giving me a hand?


He starts removing all his busted and junked peripheral systems, by force if necessary... His long range comms (with the antennae sheared off), his holoprojector (smashed my Megatron's flail), his shield holster circuitry (who knows where that shield even is...), and so on...

watching snarl leave and picking himself up wondering how long they been sitting her or as the rest of the thorotlebots case passed out GB walks over to the bar still thinking and grabs another bottle of energon and starts slugging it down.


What is the point anymore.......
he says to himself and starts to wonder off figuring if and when the throtlebots awake they can find him or not.

Minerva helps Cambreaker remove the no longer useful items, and has almost to stop him from causing more damage himself.

Cambreaker, slow down! Let me remove what's left. Save your strength and let me handle this ...please?


Cambreaker looks at her concerned face and stops. He doesn't resist when she asks him to lie down, so she can finally start the much needed repairs.

This might take a while, but I'm sure you already know that... I'll work as quickly as I can. At some point I'll have to take you to the medbay though, but for now your quarters will be fine.


She smiles at him, hoping to comfort him at least a little.
