It was mid day as the people of Paris strolled through the city, completely un aware of the object that came hurdling towards Earth. Bright in it's attempt to not burn up in the atmosphere, the object came closer and closer until the first human noticed it approaching. A cybertronian space pod, a Decepticon Cybertronian space pod, had started to cool as it slammed into the surface, sliding through the ground for quite a distance until it stopped near the Eiffel tower. The sound of metal popping and hissing from the heat could be heard from far away as the pod remained still, not a sign of movement or life coming from it. Little did anyone or thing know, was that a Decepticon femme was in that pod, waiting for a sign of her allies to arrive. It was always better to wait for back up when approaching a new potential battle zone, and since she was a heavy hitter, she wasn't good at being the first to attack, although it may be necessary.

A vibrant swirl of colour exploded to life in a nearby back alley in the busy city, as a femme stepped out, her colours yellow and black. Dashside checked her surroundings quickly, looking for human life signs and activity. No signs... good. She thought to herself, sprinting forward to the end of the alleyway and then pulling back, drawing a device from the magnetic strips on her waist and thighs. It was an energon signal scanner, designed to pick up traces of energon. Dashside waved it around, getting a faint signal far away. "Must be something..." she muttered under her breath, taking a few steps back before kicking up into a flip, and finally as pistons shifted and armor slid and twisted, she transformed into her alt-mode of a heavy lift helicopter, and took to the skies, moving in the direction of that Energon signal, scoping it out from the sky first.

As the helicopter hung in the air, searching around for any signs of cybertronian life, it moved forward, noticing a drag trail. She followed it closely, looking at what seemed to be a meteor of some kind. Must be a pod... Dashside thought, and for a few minutes waited for human bystanders to clear off, before the helicopter shot into a dive and transformed into her robot mode, smashing the ground with her right fist upon landing. Getting up, Dashside scoped around once again, before walking up to the pod and looking for any signs of who may be inside of it.

Orthodox would continue to wait in her pod, though the lust for Energon was getting stronger. After centuries, she still hadn't learned to control it. Small growls would be loud enough to hear from outside the pod as her parts began to whirr and hiss, her muscles that passed off as armor would ripple slightly as her curled form would begin to vent the little air it had inside this cramped pod. The four eyes on her skull like face would twitch before they opened with a crack from being in stasis. She saw light, and a blue sky through the one-way glass above her. Her tail twitched, and she tried not to impale herself with it with little effort since it was in such a position that wasn't meant to hurt her. Her jaws would split into four sections a tiny bit before stopping due to little room. My talons hurt... She thought, the growls getting louder. Then she would begin to move, and hit the glass with her shoulder.

Observing the pod closer, it became clear to Dashside some form of sounds were coming from the pod, something like a growl. She stepped closer, looking for a window, but alas found none due to the one way glass. Then came the bash against the pod, causing vibrations all over it. Something was in there, and it was awake. Stepping back, Dashside drew both of her pistols, aiming them at the pod.

The banging would continue until it paused, then with all the force she had, she kicked it open. A gush of mist escaped the pod, leaking out in a giant cloud that was impossible to see through. Orthodox would stand and wait for it to disappear. Once it did, she let off a mighty roar, scaring humans from areas near her pod. She would look around, sensing the presence of a Cybertronian. Then her optics caught the gleam of metal, and spotted Dashside. Slowly, her form would lower onto all fours, her shoulders warming up for a sprint.Hunger.... She'd growl softly, her optics fixed on the bot with a feral glow.

Dashside watched in awe as the door to the pod was flung open, and stared into the mist, pistols trained on what may come out. When it cleared, she looked up at the other femme standing there, and by the roar, Dashside guessed she was either lost or not friendly. When she spoke, Dashside knew something bad was about to happen, and in response held down the pistol's triggers, charging up the electromagnetic coils and heating up the already molten metal within the guns. She would let the other femme make her move first, then fire.

Orthodox lashed her tail, getting it ready to jab poison. She was about to leap forward, but something stopped her. A spark link. Raising herself off the ground again, she looked around. But where was it leading to? And who was it connected to, him or her? Or both... Sniffing around once again, she focused her attention back to Dashside. Her talons flexed and she moved her neck in such a fashion that made a loud 'crack' noise. The urge to kill was beginning to turn it's direction to whoever else was on Earth, to the one she wanted to kill. With a distorted and non-gender specific voice, she finally spoke a full sentence, State your name youth.

Continuing to look at the beast as it sniffed around and thrashed it's tail. She didn't seem to flinch when the other femme cracked her neck, only tightening her grip on both pistols. "Why." She simply replied, not having much of a smart retort to respond with.

I must know the name of a bot of whom may or may not be drained of their Energon in a moment. For my personal record that is. I like to keep score. One of her four glossae slipped out from a small opening in her teeth when she spoke, tasting the air. The banshee's skull-like long face sometimes had to shift to the side to get a better view of what the other bot was doing, like a bird. Dust was shot out of the slit on the top of her snout as she huffed warm air out of her systems to bring back cool air. As strong and large as her body was, is wasn't so efficient on energy or coolant.

Taking mental note, Dashside listened to what the other femme had to say. Energon sucking was new, but not unheard of, atleast not in the fairy tales she was read back on Aquatron as a child. "If that's the case..." She stated, looking up into Orthodox' optics. "I'm Dashside." By now due to the length of time the triggers were being held on Dashside's pistols, the heat was starting to be vented out of multiple slits on the sides to avoid overheat. "Now answer me this. Who are you?"

She chuckled, tilting her helm a little, If you live, I will tell you. If you don't? The mystery will go with you to gun metal grave. But her helm cocked to the side, there was an exception to this, But, since you are the first soul I have seen on this rock, you get the privilege of an early notice. I am Orthodox, though I don't think it to mean that much to you. Her stance relaxed a little. She really didn't want to do anything at the moment due to her limbs being stiff from a long ride in a fetal position.

"Orthodox, huh?" Dashside nodded, turning and walking away slightly. "Well, I'll be leaving now." She said over her shoulder as she began plotting a groundbridge call back to base. Of course she could've just used her emergency groundbridge, but she wanted to see what Orthodox was like first.

As if getting the message, the three panels on her node bridge bunched up to signify a growl. You are not leaving without a fight! I need to test both of our strengths before I set foot on the Nemesis. Her trod stomped on the grass. Quickly getting onto all fours again, she shook her armor before leaping forward with great force. And since Dashside wasn't too far away, the beast landed in front of her with a loud thud, turning swiftly to face her.It's a simple task. I am fair, but it doesn't mean I don't have a few tricks up my sleeve. It was true, usually when the lust for energon came it was any poor sucker around her that she'd feed on. But on this world? It was a totally different story. She just hoped she didn't get one of those wretched migraines.

"You do now, huh?" Dashside responded as the groundbridge calculations on her HUD stopped. She looked back up at Orthodox and smiled. "Me too." she muttered, spinning the nearly melting pistols around on her index servos, and firing them at Orthodox' chestplate. She hoped the molten metal which had been cooking to around 1300 degrees celsius would be enough to atleast make her stagger backwards to give Dashside som space, but at the worst it could severely damage her armor and penetrate it deeply.

The shots did in fact make Orthodox stagger back a little, and she paused to look at her large servo that clutched the heat. No energon, but then again it was probably burning while it leaked only a little. All right then. She looked back up, and roared at her opponent, her upper and lower jaw splitting. Powerful soundwaves were produced, and were strong enough to throw her back judging by how close she was.

The soundwaves were slightly effective, causing Dashside to stagger back slightly, but only a few meters. Spinning the pistols on her digits again, Dashside took aim again and this time didn't charge nearly as much, firing 4 rounds of molten metal (Two from each pistol) at Orthodox, both of which reached a peak of 800 degrees.

The banshee would begin to stalk towards the femme, taking the shots lightly but would still growl in pain. Then she began a sprint, and her heavy talons thumped on the ground as her charge continued. Balling one of her servos, she threw a punch at Dash that would in great hope cause her to lose her balance. Orthodox had been asleep for hundreds of years, following those who had wronged her, but with those hundreds of years, her body wasn't corresponding well with little fuel.

As Orthodox began her sprint, Dash charged both pistols again. The other femme's punch struck her square in the right shoulder, causing Dashside to stagger backwards and a bit to the left, causing her to lose some balance and u center her. But in the time it had taken the pistols hard charged up again as she fired two rounds, each heated at 1000 degrees and both aimed at Orthodox' left shoulder, trying to impair her use of that arm.

Orthodox switched to a different strategy when her arm was shot. It was hit before as well, therefore the second shot it took was easier to penetrate her armor. She roared multiple times, trying to make Dash focus more on not losing her hearing. With her other good servo, she grabbed one of the Autobot's pistols and attempted to take it out of her servo and crush it.
