Unexpectedly, a Space-Bridge opened from Junkion. You could tell by the smell that followed directly after the blue and purple super-moto. It skidded in the Communications Room, burned a perfect doughnut into the metal floor, and transformed into a femme with a blue and purple paint-job punctuated by red.
Everybody knew two-wheelers were short, usually about 16-18 feet, but she was minuscule even by those standards, a mere 14 feet tall and over a foot of that going into a pair of dreadful red high heel-struts that click-clacked against the metal floor like canastas.
Kick-Start looked around her with a bright smile. A number of Vehicons, some strange Femme-Merc, the perpetually SIC schemer Starscream, DJD Scientist Vos, Communications Officer Soundwave, and of course, the new leader she had come here to serve, Shockwave. A room full of intelligent people who would need her help always made her smile.
Was this Shockwave's coronation? Well, it certainly wasn't a gaudy, comedic affair like others of history.
"Ahem," she bowed graciously to the cold, emotionless leader, "Lord Shockwave. I am Medical Specialist Kick-Start, and I have come to this planet to pledge my abilities and allegiances to the Decepticons and of course, to you."
She straightened up again and stepped back, once more surveying the room.

A small white armored decepticon speeds into the room, glowing yellow lights cover his body. Every quick move the small speedster makes the glow of the lights seems to lag behind....

Post by Shockwave on Jan 16, 2015 16:57:43 GMT
It appeared now that the gathering of Decepticons was beginning to grow, having his crimson optic set on four new arrivals. Shifting his helm over to Soundwave and Starscream, Shockwave approached them, making a nod to both of them as a simple greeting.
"Affirmative Soundwave, I have been appointed as the new Commander. It is uncertain of where Lord Megatron is at this time. All attempted communications with him have failed to show any evidence of his current unknown status. Their is a possibility that he has perished."
Many believed that the two were actually related, not just because their names ended with wave, but the fact was that it seemed they were the most loyal servants of the Tyrant who were unable to harbor any types of emotions. Turning his attention off of the Communication officer, he looked over to the Seeker, approaching him by several pede steps. He knew he had to be watched, it was no secret that the mech desired absolute leadership over the Decepticons, even going as far as attempting to terminate the one who stood in his way.
"Know this, Starscream. While we may have shared the same rank under Megatron's leadership, you are not second in command here. It is only logical that titles such as those are earned. Prove yourself worthy, then ill reinstate you into that position."
Turning his attention to the small 14 foot medic, he was pleased to know their was a medic aboard. Even though Shockwave himself had medical experience, he simple didn't have the time to repair the wounded with his title as leader and never ending experiments.
You have been acknowledged, Kick-Start. Your services will certainly be required here."

"That is precisely why I came, Lord Shockwave," Kick-Start replied. Her voice was courteous, but certainly not the grovelling, sycophantic whine that Starscream often spoke with.
She was to techno-surgery what Shockwave was to the experimental sciences, and it was incredibly rare for her to lose any patients.

The other wave remained silent, unmoving and showing no hint of a reaction to the news. Simply standing there, staring at Shockwave through his blood red visor, Soundwave eventually nodded. A single, slow nod, showing that he acknowledged the information but didn't entirely believe it's contents. Ignoring the other distractions around him for the moment, the arrival of more Decepticons making the task increasingly difficult, the boxy mech turned towards the exit. Striding past his new Lord, caring far too little to stick around for his orders, Soundwave turned down the automatically opening doors and headed into the Nemesis.
He was no stranger to it's design, he himself was tasked by Megatron to construct and deliver it's blue prints. Due to this, he knew more about it's systems, passage ways and pretty much every piece of weaponry on board better than those who'd been crewing it for daca-cycles. Meaning he also knew where the advanced scanners were... Listening to the low hiss of the door closing behind him, Soundwave turned down many-a winding hall without even glancing at the other paths, knowing exactly where he desired to go. Striding through pods of patrolling Vehicons, each parting for him, he neither responded or acknowledged their responses to his return. He had one goal in mind, one goal that would take priority over everything else. Be it setting up a new defensive grid for the Nemesis, or personally executing a prisoner of war, one thing would be taken into consideration before any decision:
Finding Megatron's body.

Starscream closely watched Soundwave leave the room, with only one thing coming to mind of what he was must of been planning to do after hearing this news. Going out to look for Megatron himself. Honestly, the seeker just wanted to gloat and celebrate that grey bucket helmed idiot was nowhere to be seen or heard of. Still, their was just that small chance he was alive somewhere just surviving. He so definitely hoped he was gone for good this time, he tired of seeing a pretender to the throne, now only if Soundwave would just accept it that his poor master was gone.
Listening to Shockwave speak, it was just as he thought, he wasn't second in command, of course, it didn't surprise him in the least bit. He was still determined in his ambitions to continue to rise through the ranks, he never felt so close to grasping leadership with Megatron out of the picture, but it would probably be best to show that he wasn't out to kill the purple scientist, he needed to gain his trust somehow.
Truth be told, Looord Shockwave. I knew you were going to say that. Alright, I won't complain about your decisions. Well then, is their anything my services can do for you?

"Yes, Boss," Hotwire nodded, "What he said, eh?"
She glanced over at the new arrival, the medic. It was easy to tell from the short femme's body language that she greatly admired Shockwave - not in a boot-licking, smarmy manner, but somewhat more that an employee would admire their superior.
Of course, it was perfectly clear that she had no delusions about 'mating' or 'let's be buddies' because Shockwave neither wanted nor needed 'buddies'.
Soundwave left without great aplomb, and though she wasn't sure of where to, it was pretty obvious he had only accepted Shockwave as a stand-in.
"I'm ready to go, boss," she completed for Shockwave, prepped to leave and start dealing with high-end Autobots.

"Well, if you will excuse me, Lord Shockwave," Kick-Start spoke to him with a quick nod and bow, "I will be heading to the Med-Bay, where you can find me if you have need of me."
She left the room, her red heels click-clacking behind her as she left.

Stalaken couldnt believe his optics. Again a decepticon thought that they were important enough to just go talk to their leader without even the slightest hint of reverence. These Decepticons, who are nothing compared to Shockwave, showed that discipline in the ranks had slacked. Too much in Stalakens opinion. Though he would never say this out loud but to him the decpeticons were failing, compared to what they used to be. They used to have honor and respect, but these mechs and femmes only showed that they as Decepticons had lost what made them better then Autobots. Being a Decepticon didnt mean you could just do what ever came to you little helm. Your only wish should be doing the will of your superior officers. But the will of the Decepticon superiors were weakening, as their soldiers showed no respect when they spoke to them. Stalaken was quite sad in the display of foolishness shown by soldier and leader alike. But of course he would never say this out loud,for he at least still believed in being the best Decpeticon he could.
When he reached the end of his thought line he realized that Chaff, his old pal, had not sent him a comm message in twelve hours. This was very unlike him. For Chaff liked to keep Stalaken updated on his experiments be it a gun or bomb. He liked to tell Stalaken all about it. Stalaken looked at his comm to make sure that he didnt miss any messages and to his surprise he hadnt received anything form Chaff. Which lead him to say outloud,
"This is very wrong, C-187 hasnt reported in for the last twelve hours. I should go check up on him." Thats when Stalaken realsied that he had been talking outloud loud enough for Vos, who was next to him, to hear what he said. Behind his battle helm Stalaken grimaced, he was not happy that Vos was next to him and he was not too excited that Vos felt the need to talk to him. Which scared the scrap out of Stalaken. For everyone knew what Vos enjoyed to do to mechs. And to any sane mech Vos was crazy.

Vos just did what he knew he should do; he would listen, and then he would think. The bounty Hunters had been scooted out of his mind, and though he regarded everyone with distant cold optics, inside he thought about the medic who had shown out of no where, and indeed she had greeted Shockwave as if they had been friends. Vos did not know too much about their current Lord, save that he was cold and logical, and everything that had been common knowledge. He did know that this medic, whoever she thought she was, had simply acted as if she could stroll in and greet Shockwave. No more respect then the average if not minuscule courtesy of her words. It was truly amazing, how femmes could sometimes slip their ways through rules, with their pride and their words.
Vos was not thinking that Shockwave was soft--it was a matter of just him musing, and getting carried away. Vos ignored the vehicon beside him, who seems to be wanting to go off. "Leave then. The vehicon is not going to find himself, defensive one." Vos said, and then spoke up from his corner of the room.
"My ever so calculating Lord Shockwave, I must go. My duties have summoned me, and unless you have more intention for me at this moment, I must take my leave, my liege." Vos took a bow on one knee, outspreading his palms slightly to each side, and tilting his helm downwards, giving a sign of deep respect for the new Lord. AS the current ambassador of the DJD, Vos knew he had to do his best for the Lord, not that he would not have without the small amount of weight on his shoulders. Criticizing was over now, and pondering thoughts without acting them out or applying the actions themselves. it was time to exit.

"Leave then. The vehicon is not going to find himself, defensive one."
Stalaken was mentaly slamming his helm into a wall over and over again. Vos spoke to him again! Stalaken couldnt keep this up, if he liked where his neck was. Then Vos did a very exaggerated exit. Right after Vos's performance Stalaken too stepped away from the wall and came nearer to Shockwave. When he was close enough he went to a knew and held his helm down.
" My lord Shockwave, please forgive my insolence for I ask to leave your meeting early. A fellow Vehicon may be in peril and I wish to give him aid. My only wish is that you deem it right for me to go. If you do not then I will go back to my post and await your orders."
Stalaken of course wanted to go check up on Chaff as fast as he could. But if Shockwave deemed it better for Stalaken to stay there then he would, for who can question ones leader?

"You have the satisfaction of being air commander, Starscream. Indulge yourself."
With the decision that he had seen enough of all the Decepticons, he now was going to draw this meeting to a close. Now was the time to begin on finishing the cloning process of the fossilized remains of his soon to be living Predacon. Trundling off of the catwalk and out towards the other end of the control room, the purple mech turned around to face Hotwire, Stalaken, Starscream and Vos.
"I have important matters to attend to. Stalaken, you have my approval to proceed. Acknowledged, Vos, you may go."
His helm then shifted to look at the femme mercenary, before he his departure to his laboratory.
"If you're so certain that you are as precise as you state, I want you to track and capture a high ranked Autobot. Don't return here if your objective isn't accomplished."
OOC: Hotwire, are you okay if I have Lockdown there to?

"Absolutely," Hotwire agreed, "I will return successful, you can bet your transistors on it, boss."
She summoned up a Ground Bridge, and exited the Communications Center with a quick nod of respect.

Stalaken rose from his kneeling position and bowed again. The turned around and excited the room. Wasting no time he called a ground bridge and stepped through.

As you command oh great leader.
Great leader my aft was all that came to his mind. Well, their was nothing to do about it for now, so he just had to listen and keep up his deceptive act, but Shockwave was smart, he gave him that, so he figured he would know that no matter what the seeker was always going to want a taste of leadership again. Being air commander was actually satisfying to him, he didn't have to suffer through the pain of having simple idiots try to command someone so vastly superior like himself.
Looking around the room, he saw it was beginning to clear up of mechs, everyone now looked like they had something to do. Seeing that his services weren't going to be required, he let out a vent and turned to the exit, deciding he'd just give himself a personal detour of the Nemesis. It was awhile since he was last on the flagship.

Within the Command Center, one of the scanners would pick up a life signal. Not to long after, a distress signal with a live comm was sent out.
:: This is Decepticon Second in Command Black Sun, I am in need of assistance--- and a Medic. ::
Black Sun's voice filled the comm, almost as if she'd just woken up from a very long slumber, and was confused out of her mind.

Entering the Comms Centre with a hiss of sliding door panels, the boxy form of Soundwave greeted the many turning visors of the Vehicons within. Striding in and up the catwalk leading towards the central control console, he noticed a looping message and pressed play.
:: This is Decepticon Second in Command Black Sun, I am in need of assistance--- and a Medic. ::
Listening intently to the message, Soundwave extended his servos and went to work. Typing various commands, inputting codes and bringing up multiple controls, a sudden Ground Bridge portal erupted into life beside him. Turning to face the glowing vortex, he reached up with one servo and pressed down on the small button present. With a sharp click, his chest plate split open.
Ravage, Rumble, eject, ejeeeect! Operation: Commander Commandeering.
Two large cassette tapes quickly flew out from his chest after his commands, shifting forms mid-air and landing on newly formed pedals with a series of thuds. Looking up at their master with blue and red optics, the two nodded and turned towards the Ground bridge. Ravage was the first to set off, a loud growl rolling out from his fanged intake as Rumble charged after him. Leaping forward with spread legs, the plucky mini-con landed on the cyber-panther's back with a sharp clang. Prompting a warning growl, Ravage restrained himself from tearing into his bipedal brother and disppeared through the portal.
Closing the Bridge behind them, Soundwave turned back to the console and prepared to open another Ground Bridge. But suddenly a Vehicon called up to him, informing him that they'd just picked up an ancient Cybertronian signal. Receiving the co-ords moments later on the console next to him, the dark blue mech glanced over at the holographic screem presented. Inputting the codes, another Ground Bridge erupted into life before him. Turning his gaze towards the rippling tear in space, he strode forward. Normally this would have lead to him falling face first into the ground below, but with the Ground Bridge it was like another walkway had been put in place, allowing him to stroll through the green expanse without issue.

A few minutes later, the groundbridge began to echo with quiet tapping of someone exiting the groundbridge. Some of the vehicons managed to look up from there work and notice a black figure begin to submerge from the green aura of the groundbridge. A few seconds later, a 22ft. tall femme exited the groundbridge. The femme's frame immediately displayed a samurai class. The femme had a large helm would crossing the top, which energon tickled down the side.
Not long after her arrival, she planted a servo on a nearby surface, which ended up being a table, to avoid falling over.

Padding out beside the femme, the sleek and curved form of Ravage exited the portal next to the damaged femme. Circling around and looking back at the green vortex, he let out a low huff as Rumble's cussing form came running out, pile drivers raised above his head and flailing about as he jumped onto the catwalk. Landing face first on the metal walkway, a loud clang ringing out as he did so, the blue mini-con muttered something before pushing himself up, using his pile drivers cheat a press up. Reverting his arms back into usable appendages, he pushed past the cyber-panther and strode over to Black Sun.
So, welcome aboard the Nemesis! Right now, you're in the CC! It's boring as frag in here! So let's go to the med-bay, I hear we've got a new medic aboard. Let's test her out on you, shall we?
He swaggered past Black Sun towards the door, ear to ear grin plastered to his face plate as Ravage let out a low growl. Padding after him, the cyber-feline stopped briefly to glance up at the SiC, tilting his head in a 'follow us' signal. Returning his gaze to Rumble, the jet black cassette padded after him, following him through the opening doors and heading for the Medical Bay.

Black Sun had turned her helm a bit to look at Ravage, understanding his motion. Black Sun followed the black feline silently as she, yet again, began to evaluate her surroundings, and the beings she had bet so far. I think I prefer Ravage. she thought. He's actually quiet..
