By the time Gnitav arrived, the military had been mobilized. They were but a few tanks because of how many attacks there were at the time. He simply unloaded his missile tanks and that problem was solved. He then began his destruction, blasting through ever building in sight and burning it to the ground. Any human that was dumb enough to run by his optics was torn to shreds by his weaponry and within the first few minutes, the city's sky already resembled a massive factory town.

"Ah-HAH!" Whirl leapt through a Ground-Bridge and looked around for something to shoot at, guns at the ready.
There was rubble everywhere.
"Wait, what? There's all this... and this... red stuff..."
He looked up to see Gnaitav blasting away at things.
"SIR, YOU HAVE TRIGGERED MY SENSE OF OUTRAGE!" he shouted up at the Decepticon, feet apart, one claw on hips, and shaking the other at the sky, "YOU CAN'T JUST BLOW THINGS AND PEOPLE UP RANDOMLY WITH NO REGARD FOR DA VALUE OF DERE LIVES! DAT'S MY SHTICK!"
He promptly transformed and rose into the air to take on Gnativ.

Gnitav did stop gunning down the population to look at this new foe. He seemed to be a bit of an idiot. Gnitav would have fun with this one. He ever so casually raised his x18 scrapmaker and began unloading on the fool as he shouted. Not even giving the mech a chance to transform before the battle began.
Once he did Transform, Gnitav still didn't show any care. He just continued aiming, scrapmaker always just in front of the direction Whirl is moving, all intent on bringing that chopper down.

Sideswipe stepped through the bridge, a scrap maker bullet immediately grazing his shoulder. His servos went straight to it, wincing in pain. No wiring was exposed, it was just a minor scuff on Sideswipe's almost flawless paint job. Enough to piss the mech off. Sideswipe maneuvered himself so that if Gnitav fired at him, he wouldn't hit the town. Afterwards, Sideswipe drew the new pistol he got and let it hang on his side. He waited.

Gnitav had completely underestimated Whirl's dexterity. The rotary dipped, dived and dodged, flying at barely conceivable angles. Gatling guns weren't built for accurace, but for spreading fire. To put it simply, Gnitav missed his target.
Whirl might have been crazy, but he was no fool. He turned to fly at an angle where his spinning rotors could deflect the bullets.
"Good news, 'con!" he shouted, "I'm allowed to kill ya! Dat means less horrible tings are gonna happen to ya!"
Mid-air he levelled off just enough to start firing back at Gnitav, with them at a disturbingly close range. Pain was not something that Whirl wasted his time on when he was busy trying to kill people.

Gnitav simply frowned at Whirl being capable of dodging a lot of ammo at a very fast rate. He could keep firing forever if he so desired, but decided that it wouldn't be worth the effort to wait this out. Instead, he simply locked on to the helicopter, and fired his barrage of twelve missiles, six from each pod, at the Autobot. If one of these things hit, he would definitely feel it.
He saw sideswipe in the distance, and gave him a glare, but decided not to focus on attacking him seeing as the Autobot wasn't yet engaging. Rather, he turned back to Whirl and began firing, only now, holding down the recoil more on his X18 Scrapmaker, allowing his shots to hit closer to home. An incredibly easy feet for someone with his strength.

Maybe Gnitav should be focusing less on Sideswipe and more on Whirl, since it lowered his aim. Whirl continued to dodge and weave, but since he was getting so close to Gnitav, it was harder to dodge. The last two connected, sending him shuddering. This would have been wonderful, if Gnitav had actually taken Whirl's pain tolerance in mind. Sure, he felt it. Sure, it hurt.
It was just that he wasn't stopping.
Plus, of course, the missiles that had missed him were turning, continuing back towards him, and... this was something of a downer because Whirl was so close that every contact would hit Gnitav too. It was tough to know if Whirl had planned this, but it would happen either way.
Whirl fired with his pulse rifle. Aka "The Shoomer". It did medium damage, but it was very accurate, and at the current range that accuracy was even higher. If - or when - it hit, it would burn.
"COME ON, DOUCHEBAG!!!" Whirl screamed at him. They were practically playing chicken, flying so close like this.

Gnitav wasn't exactly sure how smart this Autobot was, until he started trying to outrun missiles. The missiles were too fast and would easily keep up. Along with them all being smart enough NOT to hit the user. If he seriously let that be a thing, then he might as well had shot himself long ago. The remaining ten airborne missiles would simply split off and find new routes to their target before hitting Gnitav, who was still in control.
As Whirl flew by, Gnitav drew his sword and went for a powerful swing at the Autobot, with how close he was flying, this should be an easy feat. Unlike the pulse rifle seriously hurting him. Every shot made contact, however, they never managed to tear through all the armor he had. Whirl would have to try harder than just firing that thing to take down Gnitav. He at most felt a slight discomfort from that. As Whirl flew off again, he watched his missiles all develop new routes towards the Autobot.

Whirl continued to weave and duck, with the missiles still coming after him. Each time they aimed for him, he dived. Each time they missed, they still got closer.
Obriously he couldn't outfly them forever.
This became far more apparent at the moment he transformed and slammed bodily into Gnitav. The sword-swing was caught surprisingly easily - somebody with fingers might have lost a hand, but Whirl's powerful claws were almost numb. Now, every missile that had been headed for Whirl was... still headed for Whirl.
Unfortunately that meant that all ten were also headed for Gnitav. Whirl gripped hold of him tightly with his free claw and started wrestling to get one or the other of them in the way. Whoever it hit, it would hurt the other, but Gnitav had finally met somebody who had almost as little regard for life as he did.
The safest option was to have them blow up in mid-air.

Twenty sharp noises. Twenty flashing lights. Ten small explosions. Sideswipe unloaded the entire clip of his pistol into the missiles, two each. Afterwards, there were two smokestacks. One large, one small. The large billowed upwards from where the missiles were shot out of the sky, t small billowed from the barrel of Sideswipe's gun. He nonchalantly drew the empty clip out of his pistol, and loaded a new one. The old one, he stuck between his teeth. He had a plan for it. The mech walked over towards Gnitav, waiting for an attack.

Gnitav was surprised that Whirl's claws actually managed to attach himself to the uncaring Decepticon. He looked at the missiles coming at them and shrugged, they wouldn't be enough to kill him, it would take a lot more. He was going to continue standing there until a little tiny mech shot them all. With that, he sighed and stuck his X18 Scrapmaker into Whirl's chest. He just casually pulled the trigger until the mech was dead and flew off of him, or climbed off with more than a few serious wounds. After that, he walked over to the little mech.
"You're interesting. I already like you as a foe more than little suicidal freak over there."

Whirl grunted with each connecting shot, and then slumped to the ground...
...
...
...
"Hey, jerk-face..." Vating turned his head and looked at Whirl, who was right this moment getting back to his feet, his cockpit smashed. He had simply been playing dead, "Yeah, you... Guns against hands? Y'know, I've taken some mean attacks in my time. Some pretty low-down, dirty tricks've been pulled on me, tryin' to take me down. And as a douchey, ass-bandit move, that was pretty damn cool. Might've worked too. 'Cept..."
He fired the Paralyzo Box on his leg at Gnitav's feet and legs, and the liquid pooled rapidly around him.
"I fight dirty too," His optic cycled to a pin-point, as the fluid disabled any robotic life that it touched. And it touched Gnitav's legs."And I've crapped my way outta dirtier situations'n this one."
He pulled one of his swords off his back and swung it at the paralysed Gnitav.

Sideswipe's left servos glowed and he aimed it at Whirl. He was getting sick and tired of some of this stuff. He swore Whirl was purposely trying to get himself killed. An energy grappling hook flowed from his servos and would makes its way to latch onto Whirl's back. Whirl likely wasn't expecting a form of friendly fire, and so it would probably hit. If it did, Sideswipe would jerk back his servos, pulling Whirl off of Gnitav and towards the red and white mech. Engaging a scrap maker up close was suicide, paralyzed or not. At the distance Sideswipe was at, chances of dodging were better.
Primus, Whirl. Our ranks are thinned enough already, don't get yourself killed. Stay at a distance, wait for his scrap maker to run out of ammunition. You won't be able to dodge that close. Now, take some cover, and do this tactically, yeah? Sideswipe ran behind a conveniently placed boulder, and made sure he was ready to give Whirl covering fire.

Gnitav had been paralyzed from the legs down. Honestly, this was a nonissue. All he wanted to do was destroy. He raised his shield once more to block the strike from Whirl, due to Whirl's previous injuries, it wasn't too difficult to block. He raised his Scrapmaker once more and opened fire at point-blank again. He wasn't here to be all nice and friendly, though had no clue what Whirl was talking about with fighting dirty.

Oh, okay, it hurt. It was easier to admit it now than wait until everybody got whining about it. So Whirl dropped to his knees and punched Gnitav right in the balls stepped to one side.
"All you're doin' is blowin' random scrap up!" he snapped, "Don't you have better things to blow up?"
He transformed and started to hover, the downdraft from his rotors causing chaos on the ground, bringing up dust that makes it tough for anybody to aim.

Sideswipe watched as Whirl was dragged towards him right before he transformed. The little mech would likely be pretty pissed, once he realized who grappled him. Hopefully Whirl heard his speech, because Sideswipe sure as hell wasn't repeating it. Sideswipe was tempted to shoot a bullet through Whirl's knees and drag him behind a rock, and fight Gnitav himself. But Sky wouldn't like that. Sideswipe fired several bullets at Gnitav. Not his body, but rather his Scrapmaker. He couldn't engage him with that behemoth of a weapon being slung around. He needed it gone. Then he could fight on fair terms.

A groundbridge opens up and a team of vehicons suppressing fires at the Autobots, to cover Gnitav's escape.
Gnitav, your leader requests your presence...

Zenith came a little late, realizing he was missing the action and was given the go ahead to poland.
Sorry I'm late, it seems I am not too late though, the action just started it seems.
Zenith said with a smirk, he would have fun with this, not realizing that THIS is the new leader of the decepticons.

Gnitav took the few rounds, it didn't do a ton to the gun as the rounds only dented it up a little. He was about to respond, then the groundbridge opened behind him. The vehicons didn't look insane either. Huh. He started feeling his legs again as the unlocked.
"Huh... My reign of destruction shall continue later. See you around Autobots.
He then backs through the portal.

Whirl watched Gnitav run away.
"I've seen better reigns on a Cyberhorse," he told the portal as Gnitav ran off, "Loser!"
He promptly opened fire on the retreating Vehicons.
"Well, that was a complete and total waste of my time," he sulked, folding his lanky arms, "Sure, we chased the creep off, but we didn't actually get to do anything fun."
