The shield shatters and fades, Round-Up immediately stowing the hardlight riot shield. The femme had a sword... figures since she had three more on her back being a rotor-con as they used to call decepticon heli-jets.
The brown mech puts the buster cannon onto his back, and draws out a set of scimitars to face down the femme with.
Ma'am please remain calm, I'm only here to take you in for interrogation and file any prosecutions against you unless you decide to fess up your clients.

"Interrogations, eh?" Hotwire slides into a defensive stance, "Wow, that makes me feel so much better..."
She glares at Round-Up.
"You want names? I could name a few Autobots with greasy wallets... They don't care about the techniques. Just the info. Interrogations?!" her vocals rise a notch, and her hands shake a little, "Do you know what it's like to have your own techniques used on you, eh?!"
To this day she couldn't listen to yodelling without going into hysterics.

Ma'am please calm down.
The mech puts away one of his scimitars, keeping a servo ready to draw out a 50mm magnum pistol.
I know this may seem pretty unsettling, but we just want to talk... you won't be subject to any torment or violence in the interrogations. This isn't the civil wars nor is it the war for cybertron anymore.

"I don't know what Shockers is doing with Gearchange! I just brought him in!"
Hotwire starts backing away, the hand holding the Scatter Blaster shaking. It's extremely bad form to offline somebody you're not being paid for but damn, this mech is making her jumpy with all his non-aggressive politeness.
"And as for the rest... I can't trust you Autobots any more than I can trust 'cons! You're always attacking me! Even when I don't start anything!"

Round-Up slowly walks fowards, edging slowly not to cause any sudden or fatal acts.
Ma'am, please. You will have to trust me even if I am an Autobot. I just want to talk and get some leads, that's all.

Well, you were thinking it would be ironic and funny to work with the Autobots. You kinda did get shafted by Shockwave. That's 5,500,000 credits he owes you...
Yeah, but I was expecting me having to convince them, not them convincing me...
"I'm not gonna get paid for it, am I?" she snaps, her hands tight on her weapons, although she's not backing away, "And then I'm gonna get banged up to boot, eh?"

Are you referring to Gearchange Maximus? He had a bounty of 12 mil. I take it your client didn't keep part of the deal? Or were there complications?

"6 million functioning. 3 million offline. And there are a couple of mechs I'd like for their faces to be a little closer to my fist, yes."
Hotwire replaces her sword on her back, but she's still holding the Scatter Blaster. Besides, four on her back means she's better equipped to transform or defend herself from behind.
"I find it's a good idea with some of my clients to take what you're given and smile, eh? For a little bit, anyway..."
It's hard to read Hotwire, since her optics and half of her face are covered by her visor, but she gives Round-Up a smile too.

To put up with the higher ups, the ones in command?
I had that all the time with my head of department, no appreciation for the job I loved.
Look, I know you may not like me asking you this, but If you just list a few names of known clients who are still active I can punch them through and see if anything comes up. I don't have to take you in just yet.

Hotwire bites her lip.
"Don't you get it, cop? If I give you names, my spark won't be worth scrap! The DJD, the New Institute, the Quintesson High Council... They're just the start! And they'll want to rip off a lot more than just my head!"

How would they know though, word doesn't travel far in this sector of the galaxy. At least names of Autobots would suffice.

So the Maximus was captured? This conversation in which Steelcharger had the luxury of hearing was turning out to be resourceful. Steelcharger by now had turned on his recorder, and turned up his hearing frequencies to 'high'. Steel had turned out to hold a more serious mood, which prevented him from laughing. Come on! give me somethin' juicy!

"I'm just doing my job, and I do it and I don't even get appreciated nowadays! That gimp Merc shafted me out of 60% of the pay and then when I get back to the Nemesis Shockers shafted me on payment... And you think nobody would make a wild guess?"
Hotwire sneered magnificently, even though her hands were shaking. This back-system law enforcer probably didn't even know what the New Institute was, let alone that it really existed.
"Guys like that don't need evidence, cop. Just an excuse. Not like you'd care if the New Institute turned some random Merc into a mindless zombie... So bug off... cus I'm not going with you!"

I'm not aware of the "New Institute" and you have no choice in the matter of coming with me. Even if I have to chase you down. I don't tend to fail in my missions.
Round Up drew nearer, ready to strike if he needed to defend himself.

"That's because you've never met me!"
Hotwire kicked high, at Round-Up's face. If it connected, it wouldn't just stun him; with the blades on her legs it could take his head off.

The agile mech backed away, tumbling to the side, drawing out his 50mm magnum pistol.
Are you sure of that?

"What I'm sure of is that no Autobot is going to put me on the rack!"
Hotwire pulled out the Scatter Blaster again, levelling it at Round-Up. However, she wasn't pulling the trigger, not attacking unless he showed aggression.

And what makes you think that?
Round Up spins the cylinder of his revolver until he felt it click, it was loaded and he'd use it if he had to.
The rack's are decepticon techniques are they not?

((FYI, you will succeed at taking me in...)
"Yeah, you keep thinking that..."
Hotwire grimaces.
"What do you think the fire-glitch will do to me when she finds out about her Spark-mate?"

She will not harm you, however a stern interrogation will happen on his location and what Shockwave plans to do with him. Whether you like it or not.
