Targets; Sharkticons
Jasper, Nevada
Raf was looking over the little gift that the Autobot Rodimus had given him, it was strange, whenever he asked one of the others about it, they seemed to not know, Arcee had a guess but she thought it was from The Galactic Council, according to them it was like the Federation of Planets from The Space Explorer TV Show, it made Raf curious, especially one with such an interesting Death Mask.
As he had looked at it, Raf saw that the symbols were all starting to change once again the same way till it became what he thought was Zero when it came back to repeat the symbols again, almost like a loop, it made him curious and want to see what would happen whenever the thing reached zero, swearing that he heard something inside when he put his ear close to it.

The Bridge, The Nemesis
Megatron was surprised as Soundwave was walking onto the Bridge with the legendary Lockdown himself, many others were whispering at the appearance of The Bounty Hunter as he approached, “Megatron,” he said with a smirk, offering his servo, “Pleasure to finally meet you.” he told the leader of The Decepticons, Megatron went and took his offered servo.
The two of them looked at each other before they had went and got down to business, “And pray tell, what brings a bot as distinguished as yourself to this corner of the galaxy?” he asked of Lockdown, “I got a ping from here.” Lockdown said, showing the holo, “Apparently some of those old relics are still around.” he said, making them all who could see the information.
“Then let us not hold you an longer.” he said, “My troops are at your disposal.” he had said to the mercenary, Airachnid and Soundwave had approached them, “Lord Megatron, I am more than happy to assist in this hunt.” The Eukarian said, “No, Breakdown will assist them.” Megatron said, making the two of them look towards each other before Airachnid bowed, “Yes, My Lord.” she told him.
The two of them had went and followed Lockdown to a bridge that had been formed, “So where’re we heading?” Breakdown had asked of them, “Best I can tell, the source of The Ping is in somewhere called Nevada.” he said, walking away and as they did as much, the two of them gave a look to each other before they had went ahead and entered, wondering if they’d have to face off against The Autobots.

Jack and Arcee were stopping at a red light, “So Raf’s been fiddling with that gift Rodimus gave him.” he told her, hearing that, Arcee hummed, “It’s odd, I swear I saw that skull before.” she had said to Jack, trying to think where it came from, as she had thought on this, a green and black muscle car had approached them by the side, “Hey there, nice wheels.” a gray haired grizzled man said as the window went down.
“Thanks.” Jack said, looking forward, “I never would have guessed that you’d have picked a vehicle like that.” he continued, making Jack a bit nervous, “H–Have we met before?” The teen asked, “Oh come on, don’t act coy Arcee.” He said before his avatar started to glitch and fizzle with him showing the Decepticon symbol like a police badge, “Decepticon!” Arcee went, angry.
“Now, now, I’m not here to fight.” he said to them, “I’m just here for that bauble you were talking about, hand that over and we’ll be all good.” he told them in a smooth voice, “How about no.” Jack said before the two fo them raced away, only for a Blue truck blocked their path, “Ah ah ah.” Breakdown said, “Let’s all play nice.” he had said to them when there was the sound of pedes steps, big ones.
“Arcee?” Jack asked as, “Jack, when I say run, run.” Arcee said when all of a sudden, the Decepticon Breakdown was lifted up and thrown, “Grah!” he went as they noticed a outline, the green and black muscle car whistled at that, ”Spec Ops, nice.” he told them before turning and driving away, Breakdown doing the same while The Giant had followed them, “Arcee?” he asked, “Jack, stay here, I’m going to check on that.”
Jack went off and Arcee pursued them, curious while Jack had heard a trilling, making the human turn to see that there was Laserbeak behind him, “<Follow and I promise no harm.>Starscream” She had said to him over Laserbeak, making the human nod as the pair of them had went and went somewhere private, unaware that there was a serious fight about to commence.
______________________________________________________________________
The four of them were able to get somewhere private when Breakdown transformed, “Alright, let’s go.” Breakdown said, ready for whatever it was when he saw Arcee transform but also the giant uncloak, they were nearly as large as Grimlock, the designs, the coloring of their plates and their optics, “Screecher?” Breakdown said just as he had been punched in the face plate, making him spin as he flew back a few feet.
The muscle car had chuckled as Arcee looked to the giant, “Who’re–?” she started before seeing the symbol, it was a White Autobot symbol, part of The Diplomatic Corps, “Trochia of Darkmount, pleasure to meet you ma’am.” Trochia had said before looking at The Muscle Car, “Lockdown! Surrender and you won’t need to get replacements again!” she said.
Hearing that, the two femmes watched as Lockdown had become his robot mode, “Wow, an actual member of the Diplomatic Corps! And The Cannon too.” he had said, grinning before pulling out a small pistol, “Really?” Trochia asked, “If you know who I am then you know that’s not enough.” she said, “Oh, I know.” Lockdown said, “But a EMP should give us some time.” he said before firing at the two.
______________________________________________________________________
“Arcee!” Bulkhead said, shaking her awake, “You good?” he asked as The Two Wheeler had gotten up, looking to see that Trochia was getting up as well, slapping the side of her helm, “Yeah, Lockdown must have used a EMP on us.” she said before seeing the bot come to her full height and towering over them all, “Hey there.” she said to them, “Nice to–” “Screecher?” Bulkhead said, getting a look of her.
“Who?” she said to them, “That’s not important right now, what is is why's Lockdown here.” Arcee said when there was time and with that the Autobots had wondered what was going on but also because this was a situation that none of them would ever truly be prepared for as Lockdown watched them with binoculars while Breakdown saw to whatever it was that Soundwave collected.

Autobot Outpost Omega–One, Nevada
The Autobots were surprised at the sight that was before them, “This place is… wow.” Trochia said, liking the natural organic feel to it, “I can’t believe Prowl didn’t send me here earlier.” she said, earning groans from Bumblebee and Bulkhead, “You guys don’t like my Mentor?” she had asked of them, making the bots look in surprise, “I didn’t know Prowl had one.” Arcee said, “Yeah, he found me–” she started before seeing him.
“Optimus Prime?!” she went, going over and kneeling to him, surprising the bots there as she looked up, “It’s an honor to meet you, sir!” she had said to The Prime, smiling towards him with a dopey grin before the situation had reverted back to the problem at hand, “I was sent here by Prowl, he heard that Lockdown was coming here for a bounty.” he said, making the only human there spoke up.
“Who’s Lockdown?” Miko asked, having been picked up by Bulkhead and making the giant femme look her way, “Geez! Where’d that one come from?” she asked honestly surprised, “You’re kidding right?” Miko asked, “I’ve been kicking you to get your attention!” she went, making Trochia nod, “Sorry,” Trochia said, “Anyways, Lockdown is a mercenary, the best mercenary.” she said to her.
“He was born during The Occupation,” She said, “The Occupation?” Miko had asked, “Back in the days of Nova Prime, we were met with a species that had traveled through the cosmos, claiming to be creations of Quintus Prime, one of our leaders who had went to travel the stars.” Optimus explained, “They offered us new technology and the ability to master our T–Cogs.” he started.
“But it was a trap,” Arcee told her, “They wanted to strip us of our selves, turn us into property to sell and stripmine us of our resources while doing it.” she continued, “And if anyone spoke up and was caught, they were fed to Sharkticons.” Arcee told Miko, “But there were three of our kind who were most vocal, Nominus Major, Protege to Nova Prime and one who hoped for the best of our people.” he continued.
“Termagax, one of our brightest and most confrontational on the individuality of Cybertronians.” Optimus said, “And then there was Lockdown, the fearless one who did whatever it took for them to get the tech they needed, even if it mean that he might die.” Trochia said to her, “After The Occupation, Lockdown went mercenary, his fight against the enemy wasn’t over and he wasn’t going to stop.” she told Miko.
“So it’s bad that he’s here?” Miko asked, “Very! Lockdown has a habit of taking trophies and upgrades to make himself stronger every hunt,” Ratchet said, “And we have no idea what it is that he is after this time.” The Medic had said to them, “Oh, I do.” Trochia said, pulling up the data, “Prowl intercepted a message between him and another ‘Con about this.” she said, showing the image.
“Hey, Raf has something like that.” Miko said as Arcee finally realized what it is, “We need to get it, now!” she had said, hearing that, the others looked her way, “Why? Do you know what it–?” “That’s a Sharkticon Nest Egg.” Arcee said, recognizing it from the war against them enemy, “What’s that?” Trochia and Miko had asked, making the two look to each other before speaking again.
“It was used by enemy bombers in potential Rise hotspots, they’d drop a nest egg in and when it went off, the sub–space would open up and release the package of Sharkticons into the battlefield, devouring them all, “Okay, and what’s a Sharkticon?” Miko had asked, “Think Scraplets but as tall as Arcee and as wide as me.” Bulkhead said to her, making Miko worry as she went and called Raf.
“It didn’t take him long to pick up, “Miko, hey–” “Dude! You need to bring that ball thing here!” she told him, “I don’t–?” “It’s a bomb! And a super bounty hunter is coming your way!” She said as Arcee got a call from Jack, “Jack? What’s–?” “Jack, so that’s this Organics name.” A smooth voice said to them, that made them all tense, “You know what else would be good to know? Where my target is.”
“Where’s Jack?! If you hurt him–!” "Relax Arcee, he’s safe for now.” Lockdown told them, “Meet me and my current partners at this location, and make sure to bring the Nest Egg.” Lockdown had told them before hanging up, “We can’t give it to The Decepticons!” Ratchet had said to them, “That may be, but we shall not sacrifice anyone to prevent this.” he had told them.
That made Trochia raise a optic ridge at that, “Okay, so what do we do?” she had asked of them, “You familiar with The Dinobots Howitzer strategy?” Bulkhead asked, making Trochia grin, “Why do you think they call me The Cannon?” she said with a grin, making human there curious with a grin now as she wondered more about this bot and why Bulkhead had called her Screecher.

Nevada Desert, Nevada
Lockdown was waiting for them in vehicle mode, his hostage looking nervous in his drivers seat, “Relax,” Lockdown told him, “As long as the come here with The Nest Egg, you’ll be fine.” he had said to Jack, but he didn’t look convinced, bored, Lockdown had started to play some music he recorded, it was melodious, as if light could sing, “W–What is that?” Jack asked him.
“Ah, he speaks.” Lockdown said to him, “It’s A’ovan music.” he told, “One of the kindest species that I’ve ever met.” he told Jack, “They lost their home around 247 Earth years ago, exiles like us, but what’s left has a home on Sanctuary now.” he told the human, always making sure to meet the species when Soundwave tapped on his hood, showing him that a Ground Bridge was coming.
Seeing this, he had transformed, holding Jack as gently as he could while aiming with his hook, “You got the Nest Egg?” Lockdown had asked of them, hearing that, Arcee approached, showing the item in question, “Jack, are you okay?” Arcee had asked of him, “I’m good, Arcee.” he had told her, “See, I kept my word.” Lockdown stated, “Now let’s trade.” he told them.
The two bots approached each other as a shadow had loomed over them, “<Evasive maneuvers!Onslaught>” Soundwave shouted, hearing that, he leapt back just as something crashed down, Lockdown looked in surprise as he saw the giant from before getting up, their golden optics glaring at him before they focused on the bots behind him, “Soundwave!” She shouted before charging, running past him to the CCO.
“I’ll kill you!” She shouted, going to punch the Con as the Autobots advanced, seeing them, Lockdown got up, dropping the human down as he went to fight them, Breakdown firing a missile at Trochia before going to fight the others that were there, Soundwave had to backpedal fast to avoid the bot that was swinging at her, “Laserbeak! Do you recognize her?” She had asked as the giant seemed unaffected by the missile.
“No way! I’d remember someone almost as big as Grimlock!” He said as they nearly avoided another punch, “Stand still so that I can hit you!” she demanded, “I want answers on what you did to me!” She thought, confusing the two of them, “What did you–?”“I don’t even know who she is!” Soundwave went as she shot out her tendrils and attempted to electrocute her, only to seem unaffected.
“That doesn’t work.” she said, “NONE OF IT WORKS!!!” The femme said, lacing her digits together and making a crater, nearly making them all get affected, “Bulkhead! Calm down Trochia!” Optimus said as he had punched Breakdown, making the Ex–Wrecker back away as Lockdown was using Cyber–Su against Arcee, matching her and making it impossible to win.
“<Who are you?>Megatron” She had asked of the giant, having never seen her before in her life, “I am Trochia of Darkmount! The Last Spark of Cybertron! Prowl found me in your lab and I demand to know why you had me in stasis!” she had declared to Soundwave, making her tense and pause, “Soundwave–!” Laserbeak went, detaching and firing at her optics just as Bullhead grabbed Trochia.
“Whoah! Calm down kid!” Bulkhead said to her, but was also surprised by what was said, how Trochia was in stasis since she was a spark in Soundwave’s lab, then he remembered what happened to Ratbat, looking at her, trying to get her to stop but she kept moving as if nothing was holding her, “Answer me you bootleg!” She went, raising a fist when Soundwave had an idea.
She did a quick calculation and create a bridge in front of her face plate, the fist going through and as it did, the one at the side of her helm fired out her fist, hitting her with all of her strength, flinging Trochia and the Wrecker holding her to the side as Lockdown as went and tossed a few grenades, thank you Oil Slick as the gas there started to affect their joints, “Let’s book it!” Lockdown said as he grabbed the orb.
The three of them went and ran, seeing this, Trochia had snarled, “Get back here!” she shouted, transforming to her aerial mode but as she tried to fly off, nothing had happened, making the femme scream out in anger and fury while Jack looked at them all wondering what was even going on right now with a little fear towards the Autobot that was acting more like a Decepticon.
______________________________________________________________________
After they had gotten some distance from the bots, Soundwave had started t o pant in fear and panic at how The Spark had been found, “Soundwave?” Laserbeak had asked but she had gotten up, looking at the two of them, “Huu…” Lockdown went, lifting the sphere up, “At least we got this.” Lockdown said when they heard the sounds of guns aimed at them, “And now, I’ve got it.” a voice said.
They all looked around and saw that it was Garrison Black with a team of those Crash Suits that the humans seemed fond of, “We’ll be taking that now.” he said to them as a Crash Suit approached and plucked it from Lockdown’s servo, “Thank you kindly.” he said with a cheeky grin as they had walked away, “You don’t know what you’re playing with.” Lockdown had told him.
“Blame Soundwave.” Garrison Blackrock said as they used the dip to vanish, “History?” lockdown said with a raised optic ridge, “<You could say that.>Starscream” She had said to him, “Alright then,” Lockdown said with a tired vent, “Call Megatron, we got to go and stop these dumbafts from killing themselves.” he had said to the bots as they went to get reinforcements.

“What the heck was that out there?!” Arcee said, punching her chassis, Trochia had just rolled her optics at that, “It’s nothing–” “Almost killing Jack is not nothing!” Arcee had said to her, punching her face plate but she didn’t seem to feel it, “I’m sorry, does that deserve a pain reaction?” she had asked of them, confusing the others, “Geez, how tough are you?” Bulkhead had asked her.
“Oh, I’m an outlier,” she told them, surprising Optimus and the others, “According to my doctor, I have a durability similar to Adamant Crystal.” she had said, “What about the bomb?” he had asked them, “Oh, don’t worry, that thing’s on loop according to you, so unless someone here is as intelligent as Termagax, we don’t have to worry.” she had said and that seemed to calm them down a bit until there was beep.
“It’s a open frequency message.” Ratchet had said, opening it up before they saw who it was from, “Hey there, this is Lockdown,” The Bounty Hunter had said, “I’m gonna need a bit of help from y’all to help with some humans.” He said before there was some coordinates sent to them, “Should we?” Trochia said, “If this is another attack from MECH, then we cannot ignore this.” he said as they got ready to head out.

Namibia, Africa
The Autobots had appeared in Namibia, looking around everywhere as they had seen that the three of them as well as Airachnid and some MTO’s were there, “Hey there, Prime XVIII.” he had said, “We have a bit of a problem.” The Bounty Hunter had told them, “You wish to ask for assistance against MECH?” Optimus had asked of them, making the Con look at him in confusion, “MECH?” he had asked.
“We’re talking about Onyx.” Lockdown said as Soundwave approached, Trochia was about to step forward when Bulkhead stepped in front of her, making Soundwave tense a bit before she had showed the data, it was of Garrison Blackrock as he had went ahead and taken the orb, “I remember him, he ambushed Soundwave and Drift in Japan.” Bulkhead had said to them.
“Yeah, and apparently he’s been harvesting corpses to make drones to hunt us.” Airachnid had said to them, making Arcee glare at the femme, “So here’s what we’re gonna do.” Lockdown had told them, “You’re gonna get your EDC friends and get that thing back to me before we have to worry about this planet becoming a Sharkticon meal plan.” he had said to them, “Right, and give the weapon to the Cons?”
Lockdown had looked to Ratchet at that, “Do you really think that Megatron would want to use a slave race against even The Q’s?” he had asked of the bots, “I would have thought that he would have been a fan of Q work?” Arcee had said, making Lockdown lose that calm expression he had, “You mean like this?” he said, pointing to his left pedes that was smelted.
“Or this?” he said, showing some acid burns that he kept, “Or this?” he said, pointing to the tattoos that hid the scarring he had there, “Or THIS?!” Lockdown had said, pointing to his hook arm which had been eaten by a Sharkticon as a punishment, “Bots like Megatron were raised on stories of pain like mine.” he said, “No one wants to use Q work.” he had told them.
“So what will become of The Sharkticons?” Optimus had asked of him, “Sent to The Aquatronian Diarchy for deprogramming.” Lockdown had said, Tyrannicon being one of the few to free them of their old lives, making the Autobots look at the bot then, “If you want to check, talk to your liaison, Riptide.” Lockdown said, “But you better hurry, or we’re attacking the human either way.” he said to them.
At that, the Autobots looked to each other when Trochia approached the Cons, “I’ll keep an optic on them.” she had said to the others, walking over, purposefully bumping her shoulder plate into Soundwave as she did as much, “You’re big.” Airachnid said with a smile, looking her over before chuckling, “Very well,” Optimus told them, “We will assist you in stopping the danger before us.” he told Lockdown.

Onyx Facility, London
Garrison Blackrock was looking over the device, the sphere was not Cybertronian in origin, but the programming causing the loop was, it was odd and made him curious as he had went to disable the programming when there was a dip, just like with his tech, making him glare, wondering if it was Relay popping up and ready to attack, the former drone being a terror but he was pleasantly surprise.
It was The Decepticons, already the Crash Suits had raised their weaponry and were ready to shoot when they saw the giant come in, “Didn’t know they came that big.” one of the pilots said, “You should see The Gigantion.” Lockdown said as they kept their weapons upon the humans, “Now then, if you’d be so kind as to relinquish the Doomsday–” He started before there was a repeated beeping.
“Frag.” Was the repeated phrase amongst them as there was a small explosion, the Sharkticons coming out hungry as they had went to tear and rend, humans screaming as The MTO’s had fired but they barely registered their pain as Trochia charged forward, grabbing one and tossing them away from Blackrock and his scientists as they had started to swarm her.
“Aim for the optics and inside their intakes!” Lockdown ordered as Airachnid leapt upwards, staying out of their reach as she had fired when more Crash Suits came in, “Wow! I didn’t expect this kind of party!” Spike Witwicky said to them as he had fired upon the creatures, “Corral them!” Optimus said as they had went and gotten the humans away from creatures, making them get close and snarl towards them.
“Okay, so what now?” Bulkhead asked them as the creatures looked to start eating their way out, “Soundwave, that speech you made on Junkion.” Lockdown said, hearing that, she complied, bringing up the file, “<If you could look outside the system, you would recognize it for what it is, a prison.>Soundwave” She had started, making them pause.
“<Worse than that, it is a prison full of willing prisoners, ‘Be happy in your work’ they say, ‘For it enriches you.’ Be thankful for the system….it protects you, ‘Be mindful of your better- they think for you.’ I say enough, reject your work, resist the system and your betters? You have none, we are all equal, and we have a right to decide how we live our lives.>Soundwave” She finished for them.
It seemed as if a switch had been flipped, the bots no longer ferocious and snarling, instead they had turned to their robot modes and look confused, “Better, now let’s get you all to your new home.” he said, “Wait, are we just going to let the Cons–?” “Garrison Blackrock.” a voice said, making them turn to see Marissa Faireborn in all her glory looking beyond angry.
“Garrison Blackrock, we need to have a conversation.” she said, furious before seeing the Decpeticons, “We’re not through.” Marissa snarled to Soundwave, knowing what he was doing to Thundercracker right now while she had simply made a bridge for Lockdown and the Sharkticons, the Bounty Hunter leading them to his vessel so that they can go to their new home while Trochia slid her digit across her throat.
Soundwave felt her spark break at that, Airachnid noticing it but staying silent as they had went and headed towards another Bridge away from The Autobots, things seeming better than before with the Autobots that they had given them another chance at life instead of eternity in slavery, “Alright, you bots better go, we need to erase anything connecting to you guys.” she told them.
The Autobots had nodded at that and had left them, they were unaware that The Fire Brigade had been called in and as they had looked around, one of them had noticed something, it was in one of the broken walls, giant machines that were walking through a strange portal, “Oi, Iggy!” one of the other members shouted, “Focus mate!” he said, hearing that, Iggy smiled, “Ah, sure bruv.” he said.
Iggy went to man the fire engine but he was also a little excited, “Hey bruv.” Iggy said to his Station Commander, “I’ve gotta dinner with my fam, you mind if I retire a bit early?” he had asked of her, “Sure Iggy, just bring your ride back quick like.” she said to him, slapping the fire engine that he owned, “I’ll be sure to.” he said, Pyro Ignatius Spark couldn’t wait to tell his family back on Croaton what he discovered today.

Autobot Outpost Omega–One, Nevada
“Well, this wasn't what I thought today would be.” Trochia had said to them, “All in all, I got to hit that afthole to that’s nice.” she had told them, smiling as Ratchet checked her for damage, “Gotta admit, you were pretty tough out there, almost like you couldn’t feel a thing.” Arcee said to her the femme, she wasn’t even three decicycles old but to be that tough– “Oh, it’s because I can’t.” she had told Arcee.
“What?” Bulkhead asked, “Yeah, I don’t feel anything, no sensations at all, not pleasure not pain, I think it has something to do with me being an outlier.” she told them, “Okay, WHAT is an outlier?” Spike who had accompanied them asked, having heard from the Journeyer asset that Soundwave was one and never really got a straight answer on it, the human children curious too.
“Oh, think of it as a mutation,” Trochia had said to them, “Unlike Point One Percenters who grow up to be stronger than Optimus,” she said, surprising them at the admission that something was, “An outlier is forged with a ability that is not related to their alt mode, like how Skywarp could teleport, Ragnarok can make duplicates of himself–” “Screecher and her ability to read minds.” Bulkhead said,
“Yeah,” Trochia said, not knowing a Screecher, “They’re all super dangerous, even the ones with something like enhanced learning or sonic booms were dangerous.” Trochia said, “Okay, than who’s the MOST dangerous?” Spike asked of them and hearing that, they all looked a little scared, “Tarn.” Arcee said to him, “He’s the worst of them, not just because of his ability, but because he leads the DJD.” she said.
Seeing how all of them, even Optimus was scared of the bot, none of them wanted to face the bot now, not even Miko as Trochia had went to put in the coordinates to her escape shuttle, “Well, I better go.” she told them, “Prowl will want a report.” she had told them, clasping servos with each before Bulkhead said anything, “Do you remember anything before Prowl found you?” he had asked her.
“No, just a sensation of electricity, then like there were two of me before they became one.” she said, confused by his question and his sad look while the bridge opened, the group waving her away and making Trochia, “It was an honor to meet you, Optimus.” she had said to him before she had went and left them while the Autobots wondered what was next for them and for young Trochia.
______________________________________________________________________
The Artillery, Earth’s Exosphere
Trochia had arrived back on her small vessel, “Home sweet home.” she had said to herself as she had went and sat in her chair, leaning back, she heard the groan of metal bending to her weight The Spec ops agent had looked at everything related to Earth, looking through it all on multiple levels, she had to say that it was just like others, she was honestly surprised that The Spark Chamber of Unicron was the core.
Venting, she had sent the data to Prowl, with that, they had a third of The Trinity of Unicron located, everyone knew the stories, his shadow was left in the prison, and the body was separated from his spark chamber before the two of them were flung through space and time, now that they knew where one was, they just needed to worry about the remaining two.
As Trochia finished putting it down, she had noticed that there was something that had made her curious, a little area, as big as a island that had no Energon radiation, no life signs, nothing, it was as if someone had tried to erase it off the sensors, suffice it to say, it was odd, but not as odd as the Cybertronian signatures that were there, they seemed odd.
One of them was old, like born in The Great War old, but she couldn’t recognize the signature as Autobot, Decepticon, Circle of Light or any of the others factions, making her assume they were a NAIL until she had concrete proof of otherwise, the other one looked more dead than alive, as if someone had resurrected them but missed some important parts to it.
There were some other NAILs there, but as she had looked them over, none of them seemed serious threats so she had went to her killboard instead, it showing the bot that had kept her there, the one that had done… something to her, Trochia just knew that he did, and as she put up a new picture, she rubbed her cheek, recalling that trick that he had pulled and how she’ll have to prepare for it.
As she had stared at the bot she hates, letting her mind start to go to stasis, she had recalled the other orders that Prowl had given her, “Stay there out of sight, observe and if we have to, give us the signal to blow up that Pit Damned planet.” he had instructed and as Trochia had recalled the humans there, The Spec Ops agent really hoped that it would not come to that.
All the while Prowl had watched his protege from the secret cameras there, seeing that she was bleeding from the side of her intake, he had a scrubber drone silently fly there to collect a sample, spurious on why she was so special to Soundwave and why she was hidden there, with that done and every that needed to be unaware, Prowl went back to work to exterminate everything of Megatrons.
