*Afterburner looked around, deciding that her part in this was over. She tapped on her left audio receptor and sent a comm to all Autobots in the area.*
:: If you lot down here need support for anything, don't hesitate to comm me. Otherwise I'll be patrolling for any Decepticon activity. ::

Taggon just nodded at the scout, silent as he left the scout and he himself sucked in his surroundings, scouring every crevice and shadow of its secrets; the vehicons sharp optics making an extra effort to find anything. Meanwhile, signature readings were scrolled through in a corner of his visor, Taggon wanted to know everything he could when he could, while the Decepticons still provided them with time. Multi-tasking would be the best course of action, considering the Decepticons…or even possibly the DJD could strike at any moment. Of course, many soldiers had it drilled into them to be ready at a moment’s notice, fulfilling the roles of the Minute Men of their faction. Taggon heard Astrinal’s com-message, and instantaneously replied:
::Yes ma’am.::
Taggon had the message say. Some might have questioned why they would, but Taggon could see Astrinal’s points already, though he did not know what she was doing here. Her readings said she was in the bowels of the cave system, about passage way or two underneath him. Taggon did not invest any of his figurative skills as to why she was there then, though he did overview reasons she may have arrived, reviewing the possible variables and theories once or twice in his helm as he walked through the dark chasms. He made sure every step of his was silent, and he even picked up his two trusty guns that were holstered onto a belt, the vehicon inspecting them, making sure they were loaded with the drill bullets with the L.E.I. fluid within them. He needed to make sure. As he walked, the vehicon also ensured the small knife-launcher gadgets in his ankle were ready, as well as the lubricant poison on the two blades he kept in his back plating. Check. His Uncutt Rifle was also loaded, and in the light of knowing the condition of his weaponry Taggon proceeded with more confidence.
::Windtalker, Afterburner, and protectobot Nines. Keep up the good work on patrolling your areas thoroughly. If any of you find anything, do not engage without telling everyone on this frequency.::
Taggon stated to the ones he had previously addressed. His voice was still calm, but stern in the sense that his voice was subtly indicating they should heed his advice. Taggon glared at his surroundings, he was deep in the caves himself, and strangely enough, his energy readings were picking up several strange signatures. Taggon furrowed his brow, keeping his optics all the sharper.

*By the time Taggon replied with the comm, Afterburner was already back outside, she tapped on her receptor again and replied.*
:: Acknowledged, Afterburner out. ::
*Afterburner then transformed into her Predacon Falcon mode, her two tails outsretched, she squawked and flew away.*

When Sparkflare turned the corner, Astrinal had finally managed to pull the container out of the ground. The capsule- or whatever it was- was smaller than what she'd guessed. But it was the size of her own arm. Dusting her servos off, she crouched down to get a better look at the capsule. Yup, those were cybertronian markings.
"I don't know. But it's Cybertronian." Astrinal stated, motioning for Sparkflare to take a closer look. "Does this look like anything you've seen through your guard days?"

Windtalker tried an old trick. He hacked into the systems of the protectobot, getting a direct connection to his commlink. Now he'd be able to send messages to Taggon and the others through that commlink without perching. Once they left the cave, however, he'd have to break it.
::You got it, little master.::
Windtalker flapped away, happy that he didn't have to perch for the time being.

Sparkflare walked up to Astrinal and crouched down, looking at the container. His optics twitched back and forth as they carefully examined the container. It was pretty dark. Sparkflare remembered the markings from Iacon. His optics widened as his jaw dropped slightly.
"By the beard of Alpha Trion... That container is from Iacon... Open it!"
That last part, Sparkflare's tone became excited. Hopefully it was something like the polarity gauntlet and not the shield generator.

That last part, Sparkflare's tone became excited. Hopefully it was something like the polarity gauntlet and not the shield generator. Though she was a bit taller than Sparkflare, she did however lack strength. Planting a ped on the side of the pod, Astrinal nearly fell over when attempting to open the lid. When she did, she made a swift recovery and opened it the rest of the way. The lid had been rusted slightly, but not enough. After the removal of the lid, Astrinal saw the one thing she'd never laid optics on before, and immediately intended to do so again.
A Cyber Key.
Turning towards Sparkflare, she motioned him to take a look. "Please tell me you're seeing this? Or have I finally gone nuts and bolts?"

Danny had decided to not follow Sparkflare through and stayed at the location. He sat down on a large rock that was on the ground. He wondered about where the yellow bot might have gone too and questioned his decision to stay./font]

Sparkflare looked inside the container. The mech's optics turned anti clockwise as the iris shrunk. It couldn't of been. The Cyber-Key's were launched into space when Primus became the core of Cybertron. Way before Iacon was even made. As the lore from Alpha Trion said. Must of been a mistake. It had to be, which would be understandable since Alpha Trion was one of, if not the oldest bot to have lived. He must of had some memory trouble.
"Impossible. The Cyber-Keys were launched into space long before Iacon was created..."

"Well, whether or not we doubt it, we need to get it back to base. C'mon, give me a hand with this."
Astrinal stood up and replaced the container's lid, screwing it back on and replacing it's locks. Astrinal then grabbed one side of the container, which she motioned for Sparkflare to grab the other side. "Can't have any 'cons getting there digits on it."

"If we ever find the Phase Shifter, can I claim responsibility of it's use?"
Sparkflare then knelt down and gripped the container. Nodding to Astrinal to signal that we was ready help her heave it up when she ordered. A part of Sparkflare was quite excited from seeing a container from Iacon gave him a boost of adrenaline to find more relics that was sent from Iacon eons ago.

After a swift motion, Astrinal picked up on her end. Astrinal wasn't very known to the ancient relics. But she could imagine the idea of what the phase shifter was.
"Not sure if it's my call, but I'd be okay with it." Astrinal stated casually. "As long as it kicks 'con tailpipe, and drives them away."

"Would passing through solid objects, or vice-versa, count?"
Sparkflare lifted up the canister. Usually canisters were light. Maybe the it was the Cyber-Key. Something was awfully not right here. A Cyber-Key that was heavy inside a canister from Iacon. Sparkflare frowned, he'd have to check "relic" when it was brought back to base. Sparkflare lifted his frown and looked at Astrinal, waiting to follow her movements.

((It may or may not be a key- sooo XD))
Astrinal soon began to walk, which she shrugged her free shoulder. "Ya, I wouldn't mind. But again- up to Feenix. Once we get this thing out in the main cavern, I want to put it down and take a look at it again. It may or may not be one of em' keys.."

((There can be only one key and that is going to Backbeat.))
Sparkflare followed Astrinal as he helped her carry the container.
"As a heads up ma'am, there is a ledge up ahead at the end of this tunnel so we can just throw this container down it. And how did you find this?"
Sparkflare asked, this was very curious. The container were designed to be be, light weight, indestructible and to block any kind of signal. To find one just randomly was like finding a screw in a pack of Scraplets.

Danny had decided to comm the yellow mech after a while of not hearing from the mech. The mech began to think that the bot was being attacked by decepticons but he wasn't completely sure about it.
:: Hey uh Sparkflare. Where'd you go? ::

Normally in a vein of energon, there isn't a strong point or source, it's just- there. But this one had a strong point, tiny dot. And guess what, plot twist, it was the pod."
While they'd been walking, the ledge came into view.

"Weird, these containers were made to hide any energy signal so it can only be found by cracking some code to track this down."
Sparkflare then heard Danny's comm as they reached the ledge. Looking down at the separate tunnel across the main tunnel, just barely seeing Danny.
"Over here!"

:: This is Afterburner Mavrix to any Autobots receiving. I'm currently locked in battle with Thundercracker, back up would for sure be appreciated as if I lose this one, I go back to the cons! And I don't think a third trip to a prison cell is on my agenda list! ::

Danny would look closer to where he heard Sparkflare and saw the yellow mech. He was on his way to Sparkflare and Astrinal's location before hearing Afterburner's comm.
"Time to go help a bot and beat a con."
:: Dannybosa here, what's your location Mavrix? ::
