Sonicatron turned his helm as the clank of a body fell to the ground. His gaze was stuck on the fallen bot for a few seconds until he looked back down at the smaller feme. His visor once more scanned her over now he got a good look at the smaller one. The arms which was once folded over his chest fell to his sides as he listened to the commander speak. Sonicatron only let out a gentle chuckle as he watched the whole thing unfold.
"As it would seem you have killed a comrade, for no reason. It neither impressed me. And I can see quiet well that our own Commander isn't impressed with your shotty work. Truly. There was no reason to harm one of our own. Fighting for the same cause, your own brother in arms no matter what. I do wish to hear this reason.
He looked towards the commander for a few seconds but changed his gaze over to Thundertread. And that's where his gaze stayed. It would be a stare down if he would look back.

Nevermore smirks at Gnitav as she moves towards the vehicon, the freshly spilled energon making her hungry...
" Well? Remember Backbeat wants no useless traitors in his organization. And I wouldn't mind another meal. "
She adds as she starts to dig into the dead vehicon.
" Besides. As Sonicatron pointed out. We've got no use for a highly visible ninja."

Still resembling a Vehicon she would nod her head in agreement, what good was a visible Ninja in a stealth operation. She would speak in a slightly amused tone. Retaking her normal appearance the femme would draw her Katana, and her colour scheme would start to shift until she went from her usual grey, to looking like she had vanished. She would then quietly and swiftly move closer to Sonicatron, as she did so the weapons blade would heat up. She would wait until she was only maybe a foot away before attempting to simply touch the mech with her blade. The femme's voice could only be heard through the comm-link as she spoke.
"I don't blame you for doubting my abilities, after all a visible Ninja could be an issue, but I can assure you. Stealth is one thing I excell at."
She would then return to her original colors while putting her Katana away. If she still hadn't convinced them she would gladly demonstrate her assassination skills on someone in the room. She then turned her attention to Nevermore paying no real mind to the strange femme enjoying her meal, and then turned her attention to the rest until her sights came to Gnitav. Her calm expression didn't change, she had no idea who was who and honestly didn't care.
"As for that Vehicon, killing comrades isn't an normal occurrence. I just wanted to show that although I prefer not to, I'm not above killing comrades to make sure the job gets done.
My reason for this whole sherade was simply because I've been transfered to different Decepticon bases in different sectors of the Universe, and usually when I volunteer for a mission I'm asked to show what I can do. So I just made a habit of skipping straight to the fun part."
She then stepped in front of Gnitav staring him down with still the same expression.
"If you want to take this outside I'd be happy to oblige."

Thundertread, while appreciating the violence, was confused about her reasoning. And her decision to do it in front of their commander. He was also confused by Sonicatron staring at him, and returned the stare in cold, mechanical silence.

Gnitav looked down at CrossWing once more. The little femme somehow got out of him grabbing her by head, that made no sense... Whatever. He stared down at the tiny Femme and still remained with his serious expression of disappointment.
"Well, surprise surprise, I'm the commander."
He thought for a moment, then returned to his insane smile that meant he had a terrible idea, and no terrible in the "That's not smart" way. We mean terrible in the "Victims should run" way. He looked around the room and prepared an announcement. Going as far as to activate the shipwide intercom for this.
"Congratulations!!! Uhh... What is your name? Whatever! Congragulations, this mighty fine 'ninja' behind me! You have just won not one, not two, but three thousand bullets to the back of the head! If you do not wish to accept the reward of allowing the entire ship to use you for target practice, we may negotiate in the method of fishing out molten metals out of a metal refinery with your bare servos! You'll be scooping this molten metal out until you fill the entire quota for Lord Backbeat! Which poison do you prefer?"
He went over to her and patted her over to the intercom to announce her decision to the entire ship crew. Not only did he give her the ability to choose her near death poison, he was going to force her to announce it to EVERYONE.

She continued to stare at the mech that had his servo on her, she seemed unammused. She wasn't going to give her name to this chump. And, wasn't thrilled about the Commander touching her. Then she heard the options Gnitav was giving her and let a slight smirk. The fact that he was the Commander made it all that much easier to choose her next words carefully.
"What, is the big bad Commander too afraid to deal with the little Ninja?"
She didn't really wanna fight the Commander, but she figured she'd see how far she could go with this. And, if a fight did start she would gladly take the mech on.

Sonicatron just looked down at the little Femme. He almost felt bad for her, almost. He took a few steps back from the Commander before checking his hull. A burn mark into his paint job, he'd remember that for a later time. He spoke no words but his visor glinted as his optics shifted once more zooming in and out to see the expressions. The fear. The lack..of the fear. He simply just stood there in the middle of the room as he once was. Waiting. Watching.

Thundertread facepalmed- though it was more like a face-gun, as his shotgun was deployed into his left hand. It collided with his face with a loud 'CLUNK'. The growling tank then gave a sigh. "May like you, but not going to help you. Making bad decisions." Again, the tank sighed. 'And bots say that I'm stupid. By the Matrix, what does that make her?' He pondered to himself. At length, he returned his focus to the 'ninja'. "Bad idea, challenging commander. Good way to die. Take scrap scooping. Learn from mistake." That concluded his input on the matter, and he fell silent, waiting to see what the femme would do.

Gnitav continued to look down at the 'ninja'. She clearly wasn't intelligent at all if she thought this would help her case. Her attitude was about to get her double the punishment when Thundertread spoke up. He pointed out her flaws and even gave a recommendation. Gnitav had the conversation being recorded on the intercom the entire time. He was going to let people listen to the femme be her foolish self, using this opportunity to make a point to the entirety of the Nemesis. When he finally spoke up again, he had given his decision little thought and decided to be 'nice' about his decision and give her a second chance to redeem herself before he chooses for her, still keeping this playing to the entire ship.
"You heard the big lump of metal and guns over here! Seeing as he was kind enough to give you advice, I'll share in that kindness and give you the opportunity of a second chance to make a decision. However, if you choose to make a 'witty' remark at me again, I'll make the decision for you, and you won't like it!"
He continued speaking in his usual jolly tone, clearly out to further intimidate the femme by any means necessary to get his point across.

To the side, having remained silent throughout the recent conversation Harbinger observed with a contained curiosity and just a tint of disapproval. This entire meeting was a mockery of standard Decepticon planning, though he supposed he should have expected as such from the Earth based cell. Their reputation for insanity and chaos proceeded them.
Now he was left trying to find something of value in what was by all means a rather pathetic showdown. The vehicon's death had been pointless, unnecessary and inefficient when manpower was needed without any of the reasoning the assassination of a true traitor would have provided. Now though it had sparked a ridiculous spectacle where reputation and wills clashed in a truly pointless argument. Any control Gnitav had gained with his threats where gone, lost after a delay that made any potential punishment for the femme look like something he was too weak to commit too originally, even shooting her now would look like a desperate powerplay than a confident execution. A shame since the assassin herself was disappointing, her attempt to make an impact had shown her to be unstable and without the reputation one such as Backbeat had gained it was a liability for a Decepticon looking for approval. The others where similarly unimportant in the grand scheme of things, yes men playing to the fiddle of a higher officer despite such a poor tune.
In that regard it's insignificance succeeded in sparking something in the mech, a light chuckle that reverberated underneath his armoured faceplate. One that all could hear.

SHe would blink for a moment, she wasn't scared of the Commander at all. But, she'd shrug she had her fun, her smirk disappeared and was replaced with the same expressionless expression. Plus she couldn't help but feel some respect for the Commander, he wasn't stupid enough to lose his composure. She decided to back down and play along for now. She looked around as she spoke making sure everyone heard it clearly.
"I apologize for my pointless actions, I don't know what came over me. My name is Cross Wing, and I think it's only fair that the Commander I've so rudely interrupted be the one to decide my punishment."
This stung her pride a bit, but she showed very next to no sign of it. She'd dug herself deep enough into this hole, and showed some sincerity.

Gnitav stared down at Crosswing. He finally let go of the intercom and crossed his arms. He wasn't giving her another chance to make a decision, but he wasn't without mercy.
"Alright, you know what... I'm not as annoyed with you, and since we are on a bit of a time frame here... Just scoop up the metal from the refinery molten by hand. Big guy, you'll join her with some actual tools to collect the metal, once her punishment is adequate, you may give her some tools as well. Logical spectator, you're with me. We're robbing a bank!"

Soincatron nodded slowly as his arms fell from his chest once more, he walked over to the larger bot. Standing by his side he loomed over the smaller bots. His visor fell to the "Ninja" while he shook his head side to side, he shifted his footing once again and started to walk away.
"Remind me again why we are robbing the humans of their money?"

Nevermore looks up from her meal and gives a look of "I don't know" adding.
"Backbeat wants it for a scheme. So we get it. Unless you want to be the one to tell him we aren't. "
She gives a grin
"You really want to take that risk be my guest. "

The Growler did what he was known for: He growled. It was impossible to tell whether or not out of annoyance or any other emotion. "So be it," returned Thundertread. The Tank's electric green optics returned to Cross Wing, and a metallic sigh escaped him. Had he known he would be, the way he saw it anyhow, punished for attempting to find a more tactically sound resolution to the situation, he would have said nothing and just blasted her into oblivion with his entire arsenal. He turned, servos reforming in their normal place, before he dialed up a requisition for the appropriate tools. Once they arrived, his attention returned to Cross Wing. Nevertheless, he spoke to and waited for Gnativ's reply; "Restate target destination."

Gnitav hadn't thought about a specific location, he just knew what kind of building he was looking for. He took a moment to think. Trying to think of a place to find a metal refinery.
"Try anywhere near an active human mine. That's your best bet at finding a refinery, we don't have an exact location, sorry."
He then turned to the little Con with him and gave a sadistically goofy smile.
"Don't worry about the details, have some fun with it. We'll make out like one of those human crime movies! Saw some of one as I was blowing up Berlin, good times."
