Backbeat watches the argument unfold... Before raising his voice to resume control of the situation
' Must I remind you all of the last person to LOSE their head? Now, can well all please get back to business... '
He looks at Hotwire
' I have wired you the agreed amount... Plus a little extra... 500 credits extra.. Just to insure you don't sell out anything you learn here... '
He looks at Quaketred... This would be interesting
' Your revenge will have to wait my friend, because I have need of a distraction for the Autobots...'
He adds
' After that... Then Black Sun's future is your choice... '
He then turns to look at Black Sun
' Do we have a deal? '

"What deal? The one where you put a bomb in my helm? No thanks. But.." Black Sun began to pace, tapping her chin in a playful, yet serious matter. "I do have a deal to- hopefully- grant me some form of temporary freedom. Besides, annoying autobots sounds like much fun.."

Hotwire and Breech watch with amusement as Black Sun tells Backbeat she doesn't want to let him have any kind of insurance against any future treachery. As if she's in any kind of position to negotiate.
Backbeat might be insane but he's smart. Breech really doesn't need to interrupt to point the obvious out to him.

Backbeat looks at Black Sun in disbelief
' You realize that if you don't take MY DEAL... I'll have Quaketread beat you to a pulp and then throw you into an active volcano... I'm not joking... I will have you LITERALLY thrown in a volcano to die... '

Backbeat looks at Black Sun in disbelief ' You realize that if you don't take MY DEAL... I'll have Quaketread beat you to a pulp and then throw you into an active volcano... I'm not joking... I will have you LITERALLY thrown in a volcano to die... ' "If you would just- let me and Quaketread have a minute, I can prove something that could change your whole opinion about me. Look at this.."
Taking something out of her forearm compartment, Black Sun revealed a voice recorder, the small device that had gotten her caught- somewhat. She assumed it had something to do with the the frequencies or whatever. She mentally shrugged, which she brought it out to the light of the forcefield.
"This is a set of recordings from- uh- Lady Nightfall. They date before the Fight for Leadership.. And it accused Shockwave of High Treason. And Breechloader.."
Turning her helm towards the femme, she spoke.
"..Shockwave didn't die, he crawled away into whatever dark hole he likes and went into hiding."

Breech shrugs. Black Sun is welcome to protest the idea of a bomb in her head. Anybody would. But she doubts Backbeat will stop insisting, if only to enforce his control. Refusing inevitably makes Black Sun look less trustworthy, while seceding to her request could make Backbeat look weak. Seceding is for Autobots.
"Well, what are we supposed to assume when..." Breech checks her bank account and finds it sufficiently improved, "...the boss of me says Shockers is dead?"

Backbeat laughs
' Shockwave alive? Probably... I honestly don't care... He is more valuable vanished at the moment... Your little infodump might even lead me to another of his half finished plans...'
He looks at Black Sun
' You see... His insistence on logic was his undoing, if he had thought to be more unpredictable, he could have won easily... But he stuck to the script and well... Dead... I disagree with his little philosophy... And your going to help me... Either through becoming and ally... Or an example... What is it? '

Black Sun didn't laugh when Backbeat did, which she took her innocence seriously. As Backbeat mentioned she could be his ally, which crossed her arms.
"Well, I can tell you one thing. If you don't take my verdict seriously, I'll be rusting in her for the rest of my days. So- If you help me, and I'll help you."

"Enough."
Quaketread was becoming agitated. High Treason had to be investigated, especially when involving Shockwave, someone who would be the prime suspect in such a thing. If these two getting in the way was hampering the investigation, then he'd get their ridiculous little distraction out of the way, and then get a platform to bargain.
"Backbeat. Name your little distraction and I'll see to it. Then, you can both leave me to get the information from Black Sun when I return, since she'll only divulge this information to me."

Backbeat shakes his head
' You don't see it do you...? Hah.. Ha.. Ha. I was going to make sure I had Black Sun's agreement to the terms before I said this plan... Just so it seemed more like a reward than a job... But fine I'll let you all in on the joke... '
He looks at Quaketread
' Your familiar with Cybertronian law? Particularly the bits about trial by combat... Right? Well I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone... Particularly Miss Sun's act of treason and the Autobot who bombed our base... Along with keeping the Autobots away from my other plans... We pit Black Sun and Taggon against each other in single combat... One Autobot and Decepticon acting as referees also tag along... To make sure it's fair... of course... don't want any cheating...'
He then adds
' Scale of one to ten... How okay are you with cheating to kill Autobots? '

Hotwire speaks up from where she's leaning on a wall, "I don't see how it's cheating if they both end up dead."
"Damn right," Breech flourishes a hand, "Being dead is the natural state of our enemies."
The two femmes snicker as one.

"Your confidence in your little toy mustn't be very high if you feel the need for me to cheat. She'll need repairs, and if she is as capable as you believe her to be, she'll not require my intervention.
If not, then I can merely remove Taggon's Spark from his chest in a single shot. Where will the fight be?"

Backbeat laughs
' I just need you to make sure this little sparring match takes as long as possible Quaketread... Every minute the Autobots are focused on the fight... Is time enough for us to find and secure the cyberkey! '
He adds
' Now then, once Black Sun agrees to my terms you can begun... I'm leaving this part of my plan to you BOTH... Do not fail me... '

Hotwire laughs, then sees the others looking at her, "Nothing, nothing... You're looking for Cyber-Keys eh, boss? I hunt things."

Backbeat looks at Hotwire
' I was referring to Quaketread and Black Sun... A third agent there would cast suspicion... I actually have a job for you... and the DJD... I want you to take... What was his name? The Autobot who used to be Dark Mercy... And eliminate him from this little game... There will be a substantial reward...'
He adds
' That should really keep Primal away... '

"Gearchange?" Hotwire grins, "Excuse me, boss while I just..."
She turns her back on the situation for a moment, and bursts into laughter for almost a minute. Then she turns back to Backbeat again.
"Consider it sorted!"

Backbeat looks at Hotwire
' Cool... '
He looks around the room
' Now is that everything? '

Hotwire and Breech can't help but consider it hilarious that a couple of weeks ago she helped recapture Gearchange and now she's about to be helping to kill him.
"Ah, the joys of being a death-whore..." she snickers.

Backbeat looks at Hotwire, surprised the mercenary had not left yet.
' Now would be a good time to go find and deliver these orders to the DJD... '

"Oh, of course, boss," Hotwire leaves the Brig to find the nearst available member of the DJD.
