* dirge picks himself up out of the waste *

" maybe this will help, i found it at Iacon "

* dirge hands galvatron a datapad that has a partial map of the tunnels on it *

Galvatron looks at the map...

we must find the deepest tunnels.
This map goes only 1,807 levels.
If we take the "tube-evators" we can get DEEPER FASTER.

Let's use this map and see how deep we can go.

Nightshade, you don't suppose your TWIN sister has used the power of the matrix? If so, she could be a danger to our mission and I will do what is necessary to get that matrix!!

*I looked at Galvatron as he made the sly coment on my twin sister..*

"She isn't that type of femme, Galvatron. She was the Dark Matrix's protector, she wouldn't dear try and use it for her own self gain, besides it is far to strong and dangerous for most of us. As far as I know there are only two who I believe are strong enough to wield its power, and thats you and my brother, Shadow."

*Scrapper is captured by discussion about that side of the Matrix and says with a very low voice*.

"Your sister has taken her role very seriously,Knightshade.A Matrix protector... I wonder if during that period she was able to understand something about the powers and essence of the item despite the fact she never try to use it.

*Adds again to Galvatron and Nightshade,fearing to have talked too much*.

"I'm sorry if I have bothered you with my curiosity."

*I looked over at Scrapper and said,*

"She knew very well of its power, but before she could take advantage of it she was left down here with very little energon to stay functioning for long. She then dissapeared." I said

Then let us keep on searching!
If we find her carcass we can revive her with our extra energon as long as her spark is still functional.

Dirge, this map, you say you found it at Iacon!?
This means the Autobots know about the Dark Matrix!

Rumble, use your communication radar devices and scout the surrounding tunnels for any Autobot inconvieniences.

Nightshade, who was the one that ordered your TWIN!! sister to be a matrix guard?
Only Lord Megatron would make such a command
Unless this is BEFORE the great Commander took control.
Is your siblings bots or cons?

Scrapper, did I mention to you that I am very proud of you Constructicons for building my "special room above the bar".
You did a spectacular job and built everything perfectly to my directions.


The cons go deeper within Cybertron's tunnels...

Galvatron makes a report to Commander Megatron who awaits information from the Kolkular bar...

Megatron, Nightshade has a twin!!
TWINS!!!
TWINS!!!

GIGGITY GIGGITY GIGGITY!!!!

*I gave a small sigh as he asked. I knew the answer would not look good, but I needed to tell our story.*

"We are neither, rather we are known as Shadowcons. Unicron tricked us into serving him, then turned on us and trapped us in the Allspark. We never looked like this before then, and when we were trapped the Allspark changed us. I only remember bits and pieces of our past but I do know that it was Primus that handed that task to my sister. This all happened long before anyone was here. It was Megatron that accidently released us, we then chose to serve him, but my brothers and I were betreyed by Starscream and he went to the high council and gave away our existence to them, in turn my brothers were captured and banished off of Cybertron. I never had the chance to find my sisiter, and I was forced to leave to search for my brothers, soon after the Great war that divided the factions happened, but we were already gone. I had just returned." I said looking over at Galvatron then the others

* dirge listens to knightshades history, then turns to galvatron *

" I found it in the science lab at Iacon, maybe the autobots did not know its origins or what it led to "

* Dirge shines his lights around the tunnels *

" SHHHHHH, listen "

* The group stops and they hear a very faint humming sound *

*soundwave goes to the com"

"Lord galvatron, Acknowledge."

Galvatron answers...

Yes Soundwave, what is it you want?
Turn your vocal processors down!!!

Hmmm Soundwave must not be able to hear my return.
We must be too deep within the tunnels of Cybertron for our communications. Make note of that my fellow Decepticons.
We are alone down here. No one from above can hear us now.

The cons continue deeper down into the depths of the planet.

OOC.. (I've been given permission to use Dirge's character until he returns... I only hope I do a good job)

BIC

DIRGE: Um Galvatron, I really got to recycle some extra energon!!

GALVATRON: slaps hand to forehead... Well you should have thought of that before we got way down here!! There is no Energon recycling rooms down here!! Go find a dark corner! Rumble assist him!!

We shall wait here. Nightshade, do you think we are on the right path?

*Rumble sighs at Galvatron's command, and directs Dirge over to a corner.*

"Hurry it up will ya, we got more important things to be doing."

*Rumble turns away and walks back to the group to leave the seeker in privacy.*

*Nightshade looks over at Galvatron and says,*

"Yeah, it should be this way."

Then we shall proceed

* having finished recycleing energon dirge returns to the others *

* AAAAAHHHHHHH thats better *

*Exploration in the dark tunnels proceeds....*

"I've never been in these places...what a fascinating atmosphere!"

*After a while,adds.*

So,we have to descend again.I wonder what other we could meet in the deepest zones..Well,there is just a way to discover it..."

I'm surprised we haven't ran into Ratbat down here.

It's getting darker as we go deeper.

*Rumble drags his feet as the Decepticons press on into the darkness.*

"Are we there yet?"

" we wouldnt still be walking if we were "

* dirge stops and releases batzilla *

" maybe he can guide us in the dark "

these dark tunnels are a labyrinth that goes on for miles and miles.
If only we knew where the true location of our goal is.
A map would be nice.
