ShadowZone noted the presence of the pet again. He did not recognise it for what it was nor whom it once belonged. There was that feeling in the back of his processor where he should he felt to some extent intimidated by it, but the reason was unknown nor it's connection to anything else.
He turned to Diamond and nodded curtly. "Yes, ma'am." He stood at attention, his wings stiff and motionless, in all aspects he was a soldier awaiting orders, a tool to be used as the superior wished. Diamond was close to the Prime, which was perhaps an even greater reason for him to want to have her satisfied with his service.

In an opening of sun in the trees sat a peaceful Havoc enjoying the natural earth. He often went to places across the world with lush wildlife on his off-time. Covered in leaves and animals, Havoc was having fun. The wrecker opened his blue eyes admiring the view of the forest. A sloth crawled on to the head of Havoc scratching at his eyes. He picked up the sloth gentle in his hand placing the slow moving creature on to the forest floor. He began picking off the animals on him slowly. Leaves fell off of him as he stood up. He noticed that Dia was close by. He began walking in the direction Dia was. She came into sight. Havoc approached then said.
"Greetings Head of Surveillance. I'm Wrecker Havoc. Just enjoying earth."
He said in a calm tone.

A few feet from the current congregation of Cybertronians, both humanoid and not, a groundbridge whirred into existence - the familiar vortex of green and blue forming behind Havoc. A figure strode forth from the portal, short, thin and feminine in shape, with most other details obscured by the groundbridge's vast outpouring of light. Once the figure was a short distance from both the portal but also the group, the groundbridge shut down; it's luminescence fading and revealing the femme's each and every feature - Dashside now stood in front of the group.
At first, her yellow and black colour scheme would be the most prevalent detail that adorned the femme's body, followed by her piercing emerald optics and the large blade held out in her right hand. The sword was fairly flat and blunt in shape, though bright orange energy seemed to flow off of the front of it. Perhaps what stood out most about the weapon however, was it's size - being barely shorter in length than Dashside was in height - and yet she held it in one hand; which would lead one to the conclusion she either possessed great strength or that it was incredibly light, with the former theory holding far more truth to it than the latter. Dashside held the blade out to her side, pointed down at the ground in a non-hostile stance, she only held it because it was more of a comfort to her and that it also didn't hurt to wield a weapon when exiting a bridge into unknown territory.
A similar blade was stowed across her back, possessing two bladed ends, with one pointing out over her shoulder and the other by her thighs. She trudged forward, her pedes hitting the floor with light thudding steps, appropriate of someone with a frame her size. Opting to sheathe her blade alongside the other, Dashside did so as she continued her stride, moving past Havoc to stand at Shadowzone's side - her optics meeting Diamond's. "Dashside, ready for orders." The femme spoke in a tone that echoed with the respect one would show to a superior - and also to the Conjux of her greatest friend. A small twinge of an Australian accent hummed in the femme's voice, though it detracted little from the officiality in her words.

The Pet trotted over to Dashside. She reeked of battle. The Pet admired that. Anything that fought constantly, yet remained calm, was incredibly appealing to it. This was because similar traits were those of its former and current master, Kaon and Skyspray, respectively.

Havoc then straightened himself up then said, "Wrecker Havoc Ready for orders." He moved his optics on Dashside looking at her. In his head he admired her, A dedicated warrior who is a pretty Femme. All this circulated in Havoc's mind. A monkey climbed to the top of his head. He pulled the monkey off and placed it in a tree. His optics moved back on Diamond. He smiled.

Slightly startled and confused at the appearance of someone who was not on her list of soldiers, Dia blinked a few times at Havoc, then slowly turned to her platoon.
"Right... So, I have orders from the Prime to build an outpost here in the Amazon. And you're helping, like it or not. So as my first order, scout the area for possible activity, and relay to me suggestions for its placement. If any of you get into trouble in a jungle as this as this, there's a good chance you'll be on your own unless we can find you. Understand? Now go." While I try to come up with a plan of how to build it... She then gave them all a final look with the most serious face imaginable, then turned to head off and scout locations as well.
Diamond wasn't exactly keen, nor even built for this kind of work, but orders were orders. She dare not disobey the Prime, no matter how close the two were.

All the tall seeker did was nod. The moment they were dismissed he turned, choosing the direction that he would scan and explore. His frame began to disappear again, while he was in the process of his transformation to jet form. He decided to scout the broader area around them, to make certain that no humans lived in that radius. If there were Decepticons anywhere close, he would also be able to spot them and report back without being seen. The hum of his engine was barely there, the silencers keeping the noise down. When his frame disappeared though, it was not just the physical removal of his presence, but also the sensory. His energon, signature and spark were as if shielded behind a veil, blocked,and then as if no longer present. It did feel really as if he faded out of existence, returned to the world his name suggested being from. The Shadow zone.
In all truth it was nothing that drastic, just the shield doing its job at concealing the bot to its greatest extent. Since he had recharged earlier his energon supply would last him to feed his shield too. He had not much noticed the new arrival he did not recognise. He did not question it as long as the superior did not.
There was some dirt that was kicked up as he flew up and then he was gone. His first course of action was to fly in gradually broader circles, while little of the ground was seen because of the thick canopies, any man made structures could be spotted as irregularities in the natural scenery. When he had moved far enough from the point of the meeting, his scanner would be initiated to scan the chosen range. The images that he snapped from above were fed into the frequency, sent directly to Diamond. Some of it was raw data, one of the just recently discovered locations was analysed, with pros, cons and percentages.

Slamming his hands together and getting on his knees, he began transforming into a peterbuilt Wrecker truck. The parts of his twisted and turned until the truck appeared before them. Revving of the engine sent the wrecker away into the rainforest again to assist in searching for a suitable location for the outpost. A beeping noise went off. It was his energon scanner. He turned in the direction of the supposed energon. Stopping on a cliff, he transformed. The cliff over looked a cave. Havoc began climbing down to the cave opening. "I think I found an abandoned energon mine at this cave. Sending coordinates." He said before changing his hands into Ion blasters.

Dashside nodded in accordance with Diamond's orders, watching at the Pet made her way over to her. Reaching out with her left servo, she gently stroked the Pet, feeling both it's eyes and that of Havoc's falling upon her form. Dashside's own optics were on the Pet for the most part, briefly meeting with Havoc's as she continued to idly pet the Turbofox' mane. Slowly however, the femme began to move away from the Pet, though she did little to discourage the beast from following her as she pressed on into the jungle.
At first, the jungle brush wasn't too bad, and was fairly manageable - though as the femme strayed from her point of origin, she found herself having to make use of her cleaveblade to effortlessly slice away more dense plantgrowths. Soon however, Dashside's search seemed to bear some fruit. Whilst she hadn't found any activity aside from the occasional animal, she had stumbled upon something of a stream, and a large one at that. Only mere minutes after Havoc sent his call in, Dashside planted a signal beacon at her location and opened up communication with her commanding officer, Diamond. "This is Dashside, got an ideal location, no activity here - but there is a nice stream that we could use for cover."

Hacking her way through the thick greenery, Dia tried to find creatures or just small things to distract her from the raging thoughts in her helm. Of all bots, she had to be one of the few who happened to be carrying! The thought almost made her sick, but instead she stopped and held the palm of her servo to her abdomen and sighed. There was no way she could abandon this... it felt far too precious to do that.
The sudden activity in the comm links made her jump, and she huffed before responding to Havoc first, ::A mine is not what we're here for. But since you're not a part of my original platoon you can proceed into the caves if you wish.:: Diamond said sternly, a bit of impatience in her voice as she moved on to Dashside, ::Hold your position, Dashside, I'll be there to inspect in a few cycles.:: Then she finished by studying the images Shadowzone had sent her. A lot of trees, a river or two, and a clearing. All had potential.
The femme turned back and reached the trail of mere particles that Dashside had left behind, trying to follow it as she approached the other femme's location. Upon emerging through the branches and ferns as a dark figure, Diamond looked around for a moment, acknowledging the yellow bot's presence by a curt nod. "Thoughts on the area?" She wanted to know what Dash would see in the general area, seeing as Dia could nitpick a thousand issues with the smallest piece of alloy.

The Pet had seemed to spontaneously appear next to Dadhside, but in reality it had snuck around in the 10ft brush to appear next to her. It sniffed lightly at the river, and thrust its nose in, the water barely covering it.

ShadowZone continued his progress since no orders came to do otherwise. He rose up higher, beginning to follow the river towards its source. If Diamond needed him, she would call. Flying lower now, he used the width of the river where possible, to fly even lower, between the banks and trees on each side, precariously low for a jet. It felt like flying in a canyon or deep valley of sorts. It kept him off radar as well and out of sight even when his 'mantle of invisibility' was cast away to perserve energy.

Havoc looked into the cave before turning away. :: I need a ground bridge at my positions. :: He said before the green vortex appeared before him. He transformed into his vehicle mode. Revving his engines he entered the bridge back to Base.

Dashside looked down at the Pet as the creature appeared beside her, once again idly reaching a hand to pet it's form. Almost moments later, Diamond stood at her side as well, and with a nod in response to the one she was given, the yellow femme began to speak."Well, as I said over the comm, there's a stream here, which could have a lot of uses." Moving her servo away from the pet, she used it to point at the river itself, motioning to what appeared to be some sort of cavern a little bit below the surface. "That opening could be useful for actually placing the base inside of, as it would not only be underground, but submerged by the water. But there is something else that intrigues me about it."
The femme began to move, walking parallel to the current of the water, walking for about ten metres before coming to a halt. She outstretched her hand, followed by a single digit, pointing at the land on the other side of the stream, with the latter being about 40-50 metres wide in length. However, that was besides the point, and what Dashside was in fact pointing out, was a small gathering of animals, drinking the water. They seemed unfazed by the giant robots standing only across the river from them, but each of the beasts seemed to remain cautious of their presence anyway. "Wildlife gathers here to get water. I was thinking, perhaps if the base made use of holographic camouflage, we could project holograms of the creatures to try and further disguise the base from any prying eyes - human or otherwise. Granted, Decepticons wouldn't be scared by regular human animals, but they would think that the area hasn't been disturbed by Cybertronian activity, giving us better cover." With her explanation complete, Dashside stepped a few paces away from the shoreline, her gaze falling upon Diamond's form. "What do you think, ma'am?"

Diamond studied the area, making mental plans and designs already for what would go where according to Dashside's description. She nodded a little, considering every option and idea that spilled from the femme's mouth, "Those are indeed some solid ideas, Dashside. Your ideas will put into this design no doubt, nice work." Dia complimented her then commed ShadowZone, ::ShadowZone, circle around our current location, see if you can spot anything off in the surrounding territory from the sky, I'll scout below.:: She ordered the mech, then looked around herself.
"I'll notify the Prime, in the meantime you can help me place a few designs." The femme said, walking forward to quickly inspect the cavern, then the stream, and the areas she had pointed to. All seemed to be harmless enough for them to start building. And with this dense atmosphere, nothing would see them.

ShadowZone did as ordered, flying to the location he was directed to. Scanning it and sending the imagery to Diamond a second time. He did not respond, but just continued circling that area, in broader sweeps.
