*** Captain's Log: We've docked at Oasis Station, located in the middle of the Midnight Expanse. As the only habitable environment in the sector, we're anticipating a good deal of business *** * Slipstream enters the bridge * Splitwit walks down one of the many hallways in the Freedom * Diablo is asleep on the floor of the rec area in dragon mode * Artifice gets out of his seat Hey Slip... don't you just love a blank viewscreen? Well then, we've docked. Anyone got any plans? blank viewscreen, fun * Slipstream leans against the wall, then winces and steps away from it. "dammit." what's wrong? eh, munted back. Looks like someone has to log some time in the medbay *shrugs* Nah, it'll be right. * Splitwit walks past the rec area and spies Diablo "Whats up, Tall dark and purple?" * Chameleon bums around in the plaza * Waitstate swings the view on the screen around to a view of the station heh. Let's hope we don't get kicked outta this station too, aye? * Diablo's wings stretch a bit then move back As long as Spectral Death doesn't show up I trust we'll be fine I'm just glad they let us dock after that :p yeah, we mighta been in a bit o' trouble if they hadn't. Waitstate, are you gonna take a run around the station this time? You always seem so cooped up on this ship I might... depends on what ends up going on here I'd be willing to take a wager this'll be interesting * Trihorn races down a corridor * Deadlift hears something coming Slipstream, you busy? * Trihorn makes a triceratops noise and runs faster Oh yeah? * Ruse walks out into the corridor * Deadlift transforms to forklift mode, revs his engine and charges * Trihorn keeps going * Deadlift rams into Trihorn, picks him up in his forks without hurting him and keeps going not particuarly. Why? * Deadlift sets him back down * Splitwit passes Ruse in the coridor and waves "howdy" Wanna do that again!? * Deadlift turns around and drives to the other end of the hall again So this is what we've been reduced too, actually doesn't look like such a bad thing * Ruse waves to Splitwit * Deadlift revs his motor * Trihorn runs back a bit Come on, you've gotta want to do something reduced to what? * Deadlift charges * Trihorn stampedes forwards I was just wondering if you'd like to take a spin around the station Slip. I'm tired of being cooped on this bucket sure, why not? * Backtrack wanders down a center corridor between the two charging bots. He looks both ways, notices the immediate danger and runs like hell * Diablo slowly gets up off the floor and shakes his head about Well, nice to see not everyone here is totally dull outside of the bar * Artifice flashes a smirk at Waitstate hehehe. heh * Trihorn jumps at Deadlift * Artifice leaves the bridge * Deadlift transforms to bot mode and tackles the dino in mid-air * Artifice waves for Slipstream to pass him * Deadlift lands below the spot of impact * Diablo spots Ruse and Split Ur * Cirrus browses the small shoping strip on the station * Slipstream walks past Artifice out of the bridge * Deadlift scratches the back of Trihorn "Good boy!" I sure hope they don't want me to play, I won't get much propulsion in my alt mode * Trihorn makes a triceratops noise then runs off to the plaza I wonder what his problem was... * Deadlift smirks Crazy bot What are you two up to? nothing really, just standing here... talking.... and stuff Just looking for something to do. I'd gotten used to having a regular circle of friends * Deadlift heads off for the shuttle bay regular circle of friends? Well, I have no idea what to do * Artifice leads Slipstream to the air lock * Artifice and Slipstream reach the air lock You wanna go take a run around the station dragon breath? At the very least we could spook a few of the locals :) I'm up for that * Splitwit grins Hehe, sure D'ya know what's on this station, Art? * Diablo transforms to robot mode Not a clue, but I'm sure it's nothing we can't handle ;) Of course. ;) * Artifice walks out into the station * Diablo's wings fold up into his back * Slipstream follows Art out to the station and looks around * Splitwit streaches "Boy, 's gonna be nice to be get out of this ship for a change" * Diablo starts to walk off. "You lot coming?" * A strange bot covered with a familiar type of robe walks up to Slipstream and takes her hand The gather is coming! * Slipstream blinks in surprise right behind ya *follows Diablo* ... okay then... Join us now and go down with us in history! * Deadlift enters the bay to find Takedown and Backtrack sitting on top of the Autobot shuttle discussing tactical points. er... maybe some other time... *tries to pull her hand away* Forget walking. *Transforms to hovercar mode* Race you there This is your last chance to be blessed by the graces of Mordalis! * Thrashmane approaches Slipstream, Artifice, and the stranger "Let go of her, scum" * Splitwit grins "You're on!" * Splitwit transforms and races after Diablo * Diablo zooms ahead Blessed, aye? I think I can live without that Just ignore him, he's nothing more than space station scum I'll do that. * Thrashmane points his missile arm at the strangers head "Now, let go of her or you're gonna be nothing more than space patte', got it?" Hey Lifter, what's up? Not much, just making my rounds. * the strange bot glances at Thrashmane but turns to point at Slipstream *to Thrash* I don't think that's necessary, but thanks anyway. * Diablo turns a corner and spots the airlock up ahead * Splitwit is close behind Diablo Here me! One of you shall fall! We are your only hope for salvation! Come on Split, you've gotta be able to go faster than that I'll take my chances. *finally gets her hand free* * Thrashmane clenches his fist and uppercuts the stranger "I said, let go!" haha! Wanna see fast? *accelerates and nearly passes Diablo* Heh, alright then *speeds out the airlock* *to Thrash* er... thanks. I think. Foolish non-believer, you have no idea of the power! Power-shmower * the stranger gets up and walks away *mutters* Good riddance. That guy freaked me out. * Thrashmane nodds to Slipstream "just a beggar. he's been pestering newcomers all cycle" * Splitwit catches up with Diablo again mmm. freaky. Appearances can be deceiving Ah well, we came here to have fun hehe, I'll say. What's your name anyhow? * Diablo and Split speed past the others * Thrashmane taps his forehead "The name's Thrashmane." and you? Name's Slipstream Mine's Artifice it's a pleasure to meet you nice t'meet ya too. * Diablo stops before he crashes into the rapidly approaching wall y'know any interesting places on the station? Well, it was nice meeting you. Let's check out the rest of the station Slip this your first time on this here station? yeah Well, I'll leave you to your work Dead. hehe, watch it Dragonboy * Takedown hops off the top of the shuttle. "Later, Backtrack" well, just be careful of some of the locals and you should be just fine. I hope you enjoy your stay :) * Diablo reverts to bot mode Not like I was going to go through it * Takedown exits the bay Oops, I think we left Ruse behind * Splitwit transforms "His loss, hehe" * Ruse runs up to Diablo and the others I was built for water, not this heh or maybe not. * Cirrus takes his purchases to the counter to pay for em. As he gets closer to the bot at the counter, he realizes it isnt a bot at all, but rather a humanoid in an exo-suit If I had lungs I'd be out of breath Hehe, sorry Ruse. Got carried away there So let's look around a bit, aye? Neat exosuit! * Thrashmane waves and walks off "Enjoy your stay :)" Thanks... built it myself. Useful in this line of work, ya know? * Cirrus puts down his stuff on the counter So, what should we check out first? Hmm... which way first? I bet it is! :) * Diablo lets Scarab loose O_O who said anything about brining HIM along? I dunno, let's just keep walking until we hit a wall * Scarab climbs onto Diab's shoulder and sits there What brought you so far out here? I mean, not many guys like you in this area of space :) well, just keep him on your shoulder >:| Nothing wrong with Scarab *Starts walking* Works for me. ;) *picks a direction at random and starts walking* Guys like... oh, you mean, oh what's the word... "fleshies"? * Splitwit follows Diablo well, I don't usually use that term, but... yeah. Little ones especially :) How big is this place anyway? *looks around* big *laughs* believe it or not, I'm tall for my species * Thrashmane looks up at the massive Freedom docked to the station. "Freedom, eh?" * Thrashmane checks his database for information on the Freedom I'm small for mine, hehe Slag, forgot to do something back at the ship. I'll catch up with you guys later go nuts. * Diablo changes to dragon mode and goes back to the ship Oh my, what are we gonna do now? *hopeful look* Hmm those two were from that ship... maybe... well, we could always LOOK AROUND * Thrashmane transforms to Lion mode and bounds away, searching for Slipstream and Artifice * Slipstream and Artifce wander around a bit * Robotic_Snake moves around the spacestation approaching other people briefly and then slithering away * Thrashmane leaps over several people and lands in front of Slipstream and Artifice hello Auto Fire and Slipbeam was it? Urg Slipstream and Artifice, actually Close enough, what do you want? *transforms* Sorry about that. You two came from that ship, the Freedom, right? * Splitwit looks around and stuff with Ruse yup. Slipstream, you don't want to give a stranger too much info What's it to you? Then you're part of the Leauge of Non Aligned Cybertronians, right? Could be * Thrashmane sighes I've heard quite a bit of LONAC, and I have a genuine intrest in becoming a member * Slipstream smirks slightly * Robotic_Snake moves past Slipstream and accidently lashes her with his large tail ow! * Robotic_Snake stops * Slipstream glares My appologies, ma'am. * Artifice throws his sword near the snake Get lost that's okay * Thrashmane points his launcher at the snake * Artifice picks up the sword You were saying Mr. Mane? I was saying that, as it stands, I am intrested in your little harem of 'bots * Robotic_Snake stares at Artifice * Thrashmane keeps a steady eye on the Snake Well, you can talk to Waitstate about joining Just hail him at the ship * Slipstream starts chuckling to herself. "Oh can't ya just feel the love in the air...?" thank you very much ^_^ * Robotic_Snake transforms * Thrashmane watches the snake for a moment before transforming back to lion mode and trotting off Pardon me, but may I ask a question of you folks before you wander off? *whisper to Slipstream* SnakeEyes might like this one, heh *shrugs* Why not? No guarantee of an answer tho. ;) I was wondering... Let me guess, you want to join LONAC too? Follow the lion freak * Robotic_Snake flips on a small holo emitter. "Have you seen this fellow?" A picture of Takedown appears Hmm Doesn't look familiar, sorry * Thrashmane approaches the Freedom's airlock * Slipstream blinks What's it to you anyhow? * Diablo flies back out the airlock in dragon mode * Robotic_Snake notices Slipstream's body language. * Robotic_Snake turns back to Artifice. * Thrashmane watches a dragon fly out of the ship. Yikes I appreciate your time. Good day, bots. He's not gonna ruin our fun on the station is he? * Robotic_Snake turns and walks off. * Artifice turns to Slipstream He suspects something Well that was odd * Robotic_Snake is heard speaking into his comm "Found him. He's with Lonac." * Diablo looks around for Split and Ruse I'll say. * Thrashmane taps the comm "Ahem, I say am, is a Mister 'Wait State' avaliable?" [comm] Waitstate, some snake-bot was looking for Takedown, be on the look out * Takedown wanders the halls Let's just hope it doesn't amount to anything [comm] Er, Thanks Artifice... anyone you know? * Diablo lands and converts to bot mode, Scarab back on his shoulder * The computer panel ignores Thrashmane [comm] Not familiar at all, but it sure as heck wasn't Snake-Eyes. [comm] Ruse, Split, where are you guys? * Splitwit notices Diablo "So, you're back. Get what ya needed?" [comm] Alright then. I'll keep a watch >:/ hmm... *taps the comm again* Excuse me, is 'Waitstate' availiable? * Diablo turns around. "There you are. Yeah I did what I had to" bathroom trip. gotcha ;) * Slipstream starts humming to herself You eat some organics? ;) * Takedown sings Hakuna Matata as he wanders down the hall, tail swinging side to side heh, organics. I havn't had some of those since I was on that one nice little planet... Heh, nope. They're all wriggly inside when you eat them * Thrashmane taps the comm and repeats himself I've been on the trading scene since my primary programming, I've eating anything and everything you have to kill it first, ya know It means no worries, for the rest of your daaaaaays, it's your problem fre- ack. Too many of Rumble's damn human children movies. * Takedown shakes his head ACtually, on Golagnus 4... ya know, I had some delicious little morsels on Earth's Moon once. Think it was called Shrimp. Can't remember though, but it was damn good * Slipstream glances over at Art. "seen anything interesting around here?" * Diablo grabs Scarab and throws him some distance away. "Go look for something" * Takedown exits the airlock and enters the station good riddance! Not unless you call a Cultist, two beast bots, and some LONAC members interesting Wanna get a sip of some energon? Might as well. * Takedown takes a few steps into the station and smells something familiar. * Thrashmane figures out that their consoles can't be used by him yet and that he'll have to use his personal comm unit :P you're paying though. ;) Hmm. *snort* Well, I'm going to go follow Scarab around the station I wouldn't have it any other way :) * Thrashmane taps his own comm into the ships "Hello, excuse me?" * Splitwit sighes "Might as well join ya" we're receiving a transmission, Waitstate Someone just outside the ship in space? you mean we're being hailed? Neither would I. ;) no, some bot on the station * Slipstream follows Artifice to the nearest bar * Diablo walks off to where he last saw Scarab odd... we don't generally get undirected transmissions like that... put it through, I guess * Splitwit follows Diablo * Aries opens the comm "yes?" If it's the same to you, I'd like to get the drinks to go and find a more populated area to sit I'm just a tad tired of bars * Scarab scuttles along the ground making beeping noises along his way okay, suits me * Artifice walks up to the bar and throws down some credits [comm] hello, I'm speaking with LONAC, yes? * robed stranger walks up to Splitwit * Splitwit eyes the stranger * Slipstream orders a non-intoxicating drink Yes It's not too late You can still be saved * Diablo stops and faces the stranger [Comm] Accepting new members? yeah, shut up and you can be saved too Please hold. How about you go and save yourself * Stranger hands out pamphlets to Splitwit and Diablo * Splitwit extends one of his Shrapnel blasters *to Waitstate* It's for you. * Takedown transforms to bot mode and wanders the station * Splitwit spits on the pamphlet * Diablo throws it to the ground You may not accept him, but he can still accept you if you join now! get lost * Waitstate raises a brow ridge [comm] thanks * Diablo grabs the stranger by the neck if it isn't personal comm, stick it on the main screen How about you just leave us alone and get lost before I have to do something * Splitwit notices the words "Mordalis" on the pamflet "Hold on Diablo" * the stranger gets angry Your putrid little group is doomed! You had your chance! * Diablo keeps hold of the stranger. "What?" * Takedown sees Diablo, Splitwit and the stranger audio only, you're on * Splitwit shows the pamphlet to Diablo "Wait a moment, isn't that the thing that Spectral Death is part of?" * Takedown walks up and stands behind the stranger * Diablo extends his lightning claws. "How 'bout you tell us more" Hello, am I speaking with Waitstate? * Splitwit points all his weapons at the bot "do tell" Yes you are. How may I help you? * Takedown looks at the stranger and then at Diablo's claws Ooh, those sure are purdy, Diablo. * Takedown chuckles So, what are we doing here? My name is Thrashmane, and I have interest in joining your harem * Takedown looks back at the stranger Our group doesn't like you very much * Waitstate stifles a laugh I'd like to call it Random information extraction oh really now? Um, I think you have the wrong idea about our organization sir. I like to call it beating the shit out of someone That's why we send out that figure head group of lackies, a bunch of nobodies to take care of more nobodies! *laughs* oh really? How so? this *is* LONAC, right? Yeah yeah, I've seen your boys. They obviously rode the small bus to school. Yes sir, it is then please pardon my choice of words. * Diablo throws the stranger to the ground and transforms to dragon mode You didn't even get a taste of what we're about! You know, I'm awfully hungry right now * Splitwit grins at Takedown * Splitwit fires several shots into the strangers back * the stranger's optics fade out * Takedown gasps "Why Diablo, that's cannibalism!" anyway, are you currently accepting new members? Goring him to death, now THAT's where it's at. * Splitwit kicks the stranger several times that was freaky * Slipstream sips her drink and watches Artifice do absolutely nothing. ;) I'll forward you a copy of our information booklet and a membership application.... * Diablo picks up the stranger's body thank you very much :D Um, er yeah. Sorry, I'm still new at this small talk thing I think you broke him. * Splitwit points at the pamphet "Mordalis?" [comm] Hey Wait, want a body of a person from the cult? that's okay. ;) Split, keep that pamphlet He was mint, but I think Splitwit knocked him down to a solid c-7 * Admiral-Lilwall enters the bridge how about the 50 others he was carrying? ;) Say no to that Waitstate. remember what happened with the last bot he brought on board :P heheh * Waitstate does so [comm to wait] hey, we did get a few of these pamphlets that talk about joining the cult though [comm] seems pretty lifeless and knocked about and there's a big hole in his back * Thrashmane sets about filling out the thingy he is supposed to fill out cuz he needs to do it because he is supposed to so what d'we do with Senor Carcass here? * Slipstream sips her drink more and leans back against something [comm] I think bringing ANYTHING from the Cult on board would be a phenomenally bad idea s'ket! *winces* He sure went down easily. no kidding [comm] Want us to look around for more of them? [comm] I agree, leave it all there *mutters to herself* really gotta stop doin' that... * Diablo drops the body [comm] he said somthing about Spectral Death being a bunch of weaklings [comm] If only * Thrashmane keeps filling out the thing he supposed to blah blah blah [Comm] See? I told you we should stop letting Splitwit represent us! * Takedown laughs and walks off * Splitwit laughs So Slipstream, plan on making your stay in LONAC a long one? * Splitwit activates his jetpack and flies several meters off the ground "Better start looking for clues and stuff" Sounds like an idea to me [comm] Cham, get off that ship and get out here * Splitwit lands again, packs a few of the pamphlets into subspace, and takes off again *singing* I've got a cluu-uue, I've got a cluu-uue... la di da di daa daa... *shrugs* Depends. Prob'ly will be staying around a while [comm] Hehe, why's that? manage to get in a fight and you need some help? * Thrashmane finishes filling out the stuff [comm] Something like that. Just get out here How 'bout you? Been with Lonac a while? [comm] hey Mr. State, I've finished filling out those forms you wanted [comm] Ok, on my way. Better than bored on here Split, you said you've got a clue [comm] so soon? O.o erm... forward them to our admissions department huh? No I was talking about those papers [comm] and who would that be? Oh, ok then * Takedown wanders around aimlessly until a form appears in front of him * Splitwit zooms around a little bit longer [comm] That's in the info I sent you Good day, Takedown. I see that you are well. [comm] right, of course * Takedown snorts * Thrashmane does the stuff Wait wanted him to do I thought I smelled you. * Chameleon wanders onto the station in cham mode and sneaks up behind Split and Diab I figured you would as well. [comm to diab] hey, weren't Slipstream and Artifice on the station? You need to come with me. Peek a boo, I see you. and you can't see me Yeah, I've been with LONAC for a good expanse of time [comm] I think so Ohhhhh really? Do I now? [comm to Diablo] Looks like Takedown's found a friend I used to spend time between my bounties at the Neutral Ground bar Heh, switch that thing off Cham Why don't I just smash you into a wall instead? [comm] well then, why don't ya see if they can help; they're both flight ready Well, you could do that, and while it would be fun for all, I think I'd rather just do this... * Robotic_Cobra extends his hand ah. So y'were a bounty hunter, aye? Interesting, that. [comm] Yeah, alright then. You just keep on flying around doing whatever youre doing * Takedown takes it [comm] Sounds like fun How have you been!? * Diablo taps his wrist and recalls Scarab Yeah, I was at that. Never did much small talk aside from chatting with Waitstate I don't speak unless absolutely necessary on a bounty * Diablo and Cham walk off Good, good. We are all doing fairly well. We've been searching for you. You're not an easy bot to find you know. I've been out of practice for a while Hehe. And how good is Wait at small talk? :) * Splitwit flies away from Takedown and the other bot Waitstate was about the same back then as he is now, only this time around he's actually got some responsibilities I like to keep it that way. Too many enemies. mmm. Heh, gotta admit I ain't much of one for small talk either. Cham> [comm] Hey, Artifice, Slip. Where on this station are you two? * Takedown looks the cobra over Seems you've been to Earth. Been on my own for way too long. * Splitwit cruises around Yeah, looking for you. Found a few less than friendly Decepticons instead. I must say, they do lack manners! * Diablo watches Scarab bolt out of a shop towards him [comm] *cheerfully* I have no idea. * Splitwit taps in to Diablo and Slip's conversation "Well, then get over here! We've got a bit of a problem" Anyway, this really isn't the place to talk. You should come with me, the others are waiting. Urg, I saw the the others on our way here Yeah... I guess we've got no choice * Thrashmane wonders what he should do now Let me contact the leader of LONAC and let him know. I don't want to make him think he's lost another child. [comm] found a cult loony wandering around. I reckon there's probably more of them round here. keep an eye out * Takedown chuckles mmm. ah well. * Slipstream finishes her drink Oh... dear. [comm] what he said agh, not more of those freaky bots * Slipstream sighs Well, here is the dock we are at. Feel free to meet us when you have things squared away. We'll be waiting. [comm] fun, aint it? See you soon. * Diablo puts scarab away and keep wandering around * Robotic_Cobra transforms to cobra mode and slithers off [comm] *dryly* Oh hell yeah Heh, we'd probably have more luck if we just sit around, do nothing, and wait for them to find us * Takedown hits his comm * Splitwit spies another Cult nutcase wandering around and tails him [comm] I think I've got one [Comm] Waitstate come in. [comm] According to ship's sensors I already am. ;) What is it Takedown? *to Artifice* anyway. We'd best join the others since they're so desperate for our help, aye? * Takedown stiffles a chuckle [comm] Fu-nny. Listen. I have some side business I need to take care of. Some old friends need me. I'll be taking a leave. [comm] good for you Split. Quick shot at the back of the head should be more than enough to get rid of him * Thrashmane notices another Cult guy pestering a local * Artifice gets up. "Yeah, we should find them" [comm] right-o [comm] where are you anyway? * Splitwit loads one piece of shrapnel, aims, and puts a hole straight through the back of his head * Slipstream gets up and follows Artifice [comm] West section [comm] This is where you talk. hehe * Splitwit flies down and stands guard over the body * Chameleon enables cham mode and runs off * Thrashmane sees the bot go down and runs up "Hey, whats going on here?" *to Thrash* Nothing pally, just some buissness * Takedown transforms * Diablo heads off to where Split is [comm] What? You too? Fine, fine... everybody go take a vacation. Will you be finding the meaning in YOUR life as well? * Thrashmane transforms and knocks Splitwit to the ground "Look, that may be a creep but he's still a citizen of this station! And you're going to answer to me!" * Slipstream and Artifice arrive where Split is just as Diabie does Fine bucko, just GET OFF ME! * Splitwit kicks Thrashmane in the stomach and forces him off well this looks like fun... [comm] Perhaps you should get off that ship, Waitstate, you'll blow a fuse. * Chameleon taps Thrash on the shoulder * Thrashmane eyes Diablo and co. [comm] Deadlift will take care of what belongings I have on board. what's going on here? [Comm] Till we meet again. Takedown out. [comm] Sorry... despite my humorous greeting, I'm feeling a lot of stress. Apparently, the Cult has its influence here, too *transforms* Cartifice, are these guys friends of yours? * Takedown disconnects his Lonac comm * Takedown thunders off his name's Artifice, moron Looks like I blew that one, eh? They're friends of no one. *idly* Be nice now, Splitty-boy Really now * Chameleon makes himself visible I see you know that little guy, Sidestream Oh, you mean those guys. They're from LONAC as well its SLIPstream, dumbass That's Slipstream, and I might. he seems to think otherwise. What's going on here? *glances at the body* From different places maybe, this time we just happen to know them Cultists that could destroy the station perhaps? Ones that did enough damage to the last two stations you were at? * Chameleon follows Diab back to the ship Anyone who has any sense will come back to the ship and cool off for a bit These guys seem pretty dangerous to me Those last two stations were a bit of an exception Slipstream, you coming? yup. well, since Im not a part of your band, I suppose I'll stay here. With that body. Good. *Artifice and Slipstream walk back to the ship* evidence for the local police You can do that if y'want. ;) [comm] Tactibots get to the sim room. Time to brush up on some skills * Slipstream follows Art back to the ship * Splitwit stands up and follows Art and Slip to the ship Oh, fun * Thrashmane watches them leave * Chameleon follows Diab to the sim room hmm *leans over the body* Cultists huh? Looks like this guy was nothing more than a regular beggar... * the Cultist gets up O.O what the? * Thrashmane points his launcher at the Cultist Please forgive me, I'll be out of your way * Diablo and Cham find the others already there with a HOLE in your head? no one could survive that... My main processing unit is not within my head yeah, that kind of person could So, what's it this time? If you please, I'll be out of your way hmm... very well then and get that hole fixed * Slipstream heads up to the bridge I think I have some idea * the stranger waves and disappears into a passing crowd * Thrashmane watches the bot leave, and silently places a tracking device on his heel * Diablo quickly loads up a battle sim hmm.... * Splitwit sits in the bar I call it practice for Hyperion * Slipstream enters the bridge "Heya Wait, Lil." Hey Slip... helluva day * Thrashmane ties into the comm system again "Excuse me, Waitstate? I have some news" I'll say. Heh, Hyperion needs it * Waitstate sees a comm signal from a familiar source light up his board * Waitstate thumbs it That's right. Tactibots, merge into Hyperion Mr. Thrashmane, can I help you? Right after your comrades left the Cultist and myself, the Cultist stood up and left. I planted a homing device on him, and I think that may help your prediciment with those guys. oh... and don't aim at their heads anymore *Sim appears just as Hyperion is formed* * Slipstream blinks. I see... Well that was some interesting news Thank you for that update * Hyperion sees the form of Abominus in the distance currently I have him tracked in the North sector of the station, but who knows where he could go from there. Would you like me to tie the signal into your sensors? Sure, why not... transmit the carrier signal and I'll set our system to watch it * Thrashmane does that Roger *to Slip, outside comm range* Couldn't hurt, eh? and you're welcome. Thrashmane out. Thanks hopefully not. * Waitstate closes the channel knowing our luck though... hehehe heh odd fellow, that... he said he wanted to join our "harem" * Hyperion observes the battlefield before approching weird Heavy weapons fire detected for both sides. *launches two spiderbots* *Spiderbots watch for potential risks to hyperion while moving to the battle* * Thrashmane chases the signal around the station in Lion mode, keeping an eye on him * Slipstream leans against the wall, winces again and mutters under her breath. "s'ket." * Hyperion follows the spiderbots * Hyperion arms his cannons and fires a volley at Abominus to get his attention * Abominus gets hit in the side and moves over to Hyperion, enraged * Slipstream sighs * Thrashmane leaps over several large aliens as he stalks the Cultist Hey Wait, y'think Restore'd be in the Medbay at the moment? * Hyperion uses Firestorm's flamers, but the tubes are blocked and explode Hm, it's the off shift for her, but that means little, knowing her * Firestorm seperates from Hyperion, damaged quite a bit * Hyperion splits apart and ends the sim * the tracking signal stops* Damnit Firey, start checking those things more often would ya heh. * Thrashmane zeros in on the signal nemmind then Easy for you to say. *Sparks fly* You don't know how much of a pain it is to pull 'em apart then put 'em back together what? you gonna raid the place or something? * Thrashmane finds the Cultist, lying face down on the ground without his robe "Uh oh..." who, me? And face Restore's wrath?! Not bloody likely, hehe * Diablo and Novaburst help Firestorm up I'll live for now. *checks body* total system failure. Ouch. Those LONACers are not going to be happy with this. * Waitstate laughs Or at least get them upgraded so they don't do this [Comm] hey Waitstate? Got *one* more minute? Little update on our friend here. No chance. I happen to like this type of flamer quite well * Waitstate sighs I've just gotta remember not to lean on anything, is all. heh. * Slipstream smirks [comm] What is it? [comm] He's dead I'll get him to medbay and patch him up a bit. You all can go do whatever [comm] from the looks of it, he died of head trauma; his energy levels depleted themselfs. Total system failure. [comm] Ah... well, one less thing to worry about then, eh? [comm] I suppose so, except that that was our only lead on these guys * Diablo heads off to the plaza and leaves the others [comm] our? [comm] Sorry, your only lead. [comm] I was just curious what your connection was to them [comm] I'm just a volunteer security officer on this station. No connection to anyone really ...volunteer. riiiight. hehe [comm] Ah, I see * Diablo walks into the plaza "Heh, this place is actually dead for a change" [comm] anyway, is there anything else I can do for now?
