"Hotwire... Breech... they're both applicable," she states, "Sometimes one is more than the other but... both are good. To be honest, I kind of have a bounty set up, you might say," her lips curve in a brief smirk and her voice changes subtly, "And as for not being happy; that's nothing new."
She leaned to look at Stalaken, interested, but returned to her hitched side soon enough.
"Either way, you need any help?" Hotwire checks. Yes, she's the more amicable one of the two people in there.

Post by Stalaken on Nov 13, 2015 1:44:23 GMT
With Taggons response to his question Stalaken stood back to his full height and glared at the femme from behind his battle helm. As she spoke with Taggon about a bounty Stalaken's resentment towards her only grew. An Autobot who is also a bounty hunter. What could be worse? Stalaken had no respect for Autobots and bounty hunter he thought were leeches who benefit from others hard work. So with her being both an Autobot and a bounty hunter he viewed her as a dog, the scum of the earth. She leaned closer to look at Stalaken and he wanted so bad to crush her helm in but he wasnt going to waste his energy on such slime. "Either way, you need any help?" Her voice rang in Stalakens helm. She wished to know if he needed her help. How cute. Stalaken would stare at her not moveing for a few seconds before turning around and entering the portal behind him and Taggon. He didnt answer her, instead he hoped she got the message that he did not like her and hoped to never see her sorry form again. (( Sorry if this post may seem very insulting to you Breech, but it is how Stalaken thinks so please dont take offense, Its just the way he is. ))

Hotwire was an enigma to Taggon at times, the way she thought, and who she did things. While he had defeated her in combat before, he had failed to do what he so often tried to do before engaging in a battle: understanding his targets. The most he could make of Hotwire was that she was a bounty hunter that did what she wanted. Logic and reason were things that visited her when she let them, or so it seemed. Now she was switching voices, as if it were an everyday thing. Taggon had seen Chaff do it before, changing his voice and personality on a whim. Stalker's response to the femme was simply leaving. Though Taggon knew Stalaken's reasons, he also knew he had objectives of his own, and he hadn't the time to fight or solve puzzles right now. Or receive migraines for that matter. Turning down the offer of this femme was something that Taggon felt he could afford. He had no reason to trust her at all, and he did not need her to decimate his situation anymore than it already was. "The offer is kind Hotwire--or Breech, but I am currently handling a matter that is nothing to be taken lightly." Taggon stated neutrally, "Not to mention, this matter I am feeling with is in a prison. I am not sure if you would want to go there." Taggon told her, before backing into the ground bridge. He did not turn his back to her, since he believed it to be too risky, since last-minute shooting could occur. Her random offer for help caught him off guard, and her smug smirk only enhanced any small suspicions. The mech was in a spot where risks were not something he was willing to take. No, he couldn't take any more risks. The ground bridge would close behind him, though there was barely enough time for Hotwire to slip through, if she was fast. ((Frankly, Taggon has no reason to let you come in, but I'm just going to allow you to pull a fast one since you came here. Plus, why the heck not? Here's where we're heading: transformersgalaxyrp.freeforums.net/thread/1323/outcode-cells?page=1&scrollTo=35133))

Breech - and Hotwire - watched for a moment, then dodged through after him, although there was a frown on her round features.
"If it's not to be taken lightly, Boss... Why you doing it alone?"

Stirring, Ichor began to rise to his pedes. The insecticon chittered quietly as he came to his senses. Though it bad been some time, he still smelled Skyspray, and furthermore memorized the scent. He began to skitter around the area, sniffing about and searching for what happened. It was some time before he felt the residual energy of a groundbridge that had once been there. Skyspray had left, run away, vanished.....
Ichor was not sure what to do now, he decided to forage for something to eat however. His six insecticon legs moved swiftly as he hunted for metal or energon to consume and fuel his frame. The organic matter everywhere did not interest him, though he would eat it if nothing could be found.

A green vortex opened and a big, green and blue robot stepped through. Here was where he had seen the mech last time so this was a good place to start looking. He reached on his back and took one of his LMGs and made sure it was loaded. He didn't know what could happen but he feared the worst. It was dark, and it rained so vision was limited. Just to be able to see, Sky had to activate his headlights which illuminated a small area in front of him. He also activated the flashlight on the gun, and now.. Now the hunt had started.

Right after him, Whirl stepped through the bridge. He already had the Shoomer ready. In the darkness, his optic glowed like the oncoming train at the end of the tunnel.
"Soooo... who are we gonna be shootin' from the feet up until he 'agrees' to join the 'bots?" the Wrecker asked, his gun charging up.

Lurking in the shadows, the Insecticon watched. It had been hibernating for some time, undisturbed up until the smell of energon awoke it. Quietly it clicked it's venomous mandibles, hungry, but waiting to strike... rend... shred. It was moments later that it picked up another scent, a familiar scent. The smell of its kind, of Thunderblast. It was not quite her scent, but close.

It's my uncle, Ichor. He indirectly killed my mother. Insecticon. Need more info?
Sky asked as he continued walking. He could sense an energon signal from close nearby. He had to find Ichor, and fast. He didn't want to be away for too long and he was really tense. He wanted the truth, whatever it costed. He closed the GB with a flick of his wrist as he continued searching the area. Hopefully Whirl kept close.

"Nope. I'm cool."
Whirl was far from a silent mover - at least that's how it seemed. His multitude of joints clattered as he walked and the branches and leaves crunched underfoot.
"I just think you oughta know, you say we're here for the hunt. But if he's an Insecticon, then we're the ones being hunted."

Ichor quietly shifted through the forest, keeping his optics on the two. He relied on his green, splotchy, plating to camouflage him in his environment. The scent of Thunderblast bothered him, it was so familiar but so different, as was his scent to his kin. He thought maybe it was a child of Thunderblast, he didn't know, family rejected him for his madness. The blue mech, interesting, maybe dangerous, the green mech, very dangerous, but also very vulnerable.
Clicking his mandibles together, Ichor decided to step out from the shadows. The six-legged insecticon made clicking noises as it neared to them, cocking it's face slightly as it crept up. Acidic toxins dripped from it's mandibles, hissing quietly as they burned the grass. It knew this was risky, if they used a shotgun he was vulnerable.

I am a quarter insecticon probably, Whirl. I know these things. And sure, we may be hunted, but why do you think we are two? Two takes more effort to kill than one.
Skyspray replied dryly, not really caring about being hunted or being the hunter. He just wanted to find his uncle, learn the truth about what happened. Shrike has been vauge when telling him, so he had not much to go on. He knew what Ichor looked like, he had met him before, but it didn't last long that time. This time hopefully would last longer. He was prepared with his guns in case Ichor would be hostile directly. And he was close, Sky could sense it.
As Sky heard clicking, he turned around and aimed the gun towards the noice. When he saw that it was Ichor, he slowly lowered the gun as the insecticon wasn't hostile. At least not Ichor. He held up a servo towards Whirl, signaling that he should NOT shoot. That would probably trigger Ichor and all hell would break loose. Skyspray kneeled down a little so that he was the same height as his uncle.
Hi, Uncle Ichor. I am Skyspray, son of your sister, Thunderblast. Do you understand what I'm saying?
Sky asked slowly. He made sure to speak clearly and to be as friendly as possible. He did not want to enrage Ichor, not now.

Whirl held the Shoomer carefully, remaining perfectly still as he watched Ichor with that glowing, suspicious optic of his. For once, he didn't speak, simply studying the interaction closely.

Ichor stepped back as the guns were aimed, then shifted away from him. His body shifted slightly, before panels quickly moved and re-arranged themselves, leaving Ichor in his robot mode. He vented slowly, a raspy noise coming through his facemask. His bright green optics seemed unable to hold still, constantly shaking as if looking at every little detail about Sky's face. He shifted his optics to Whirl momentarily, letting the digits on his servos stretch out and curl into fists rapidly.
Resuming his stare at Skyspray, Ichor could see his sister in Sky's features, he also saw Kaon, the mech they had tried to destroy. He remembered seeing his sister die, watching her burn into a pool of slag, her face no longer recognizeable. He remembered Avernus' servo on his shoulder, a sort of twisted appreciation, confirmation... Approval.
Sister... Thunderblast.

As the insecticon transformed, Sky rose up a little. He couldn't spot any similarities himself but that was because Thunderblast died before he really got to know her. He spent maybe a year with her before she passed away. He hadn't much to go on, so he was basically winging it, hoping for the best. He felt a bond between him and Ichor, that was for sure. Ichor's optics were.. A bit twitchy. Sky was never sure what he was looking at.
Yes, your sister, Thunderblast. Remember her? I am your nephew. We are family.
Sky said carefully and tried to look his uncle in the optics. It was a bit hard, but eventually it should work. He also had green optics, something that they shared.

Whirl stroked the Shoomer lightly, his yellow optic fixed on the Insecticon. Personally, it utterly baffled him that anybody would want to be related in any way to an Insecticon. Preds had their merits if they could switch off their beast modes for one moment, but Insecticons? They were nothing but instinct and gluttony and the vague attempt to pretend otherwise.
And he didn't like the look of Ichor. Which was nothing new, because Whirl didn't like the look of anybody. The Insecticon looked all twitchy, like he would start a fight for any reason at all. Whirl liked a good brawl among friends but this guy...
He didn't speak. He was, right now, just waiting to be proven right.

Ichor's optics narrowed and slowed to a solid and steady stare at Skyspray. He fell silent save for his venting. His wings flared out and shook before retracting back against his frame. A sense of realization coursed through Ichor as his mind began to process the reality of the situation. Deep primal urges made way for higher thinking, allowing him to understand clearly.
You are my nephew... Ichor began, momentarily stopping to vent. You are family!

Sky was grateful that Whirl didn't do anyhting hostile against the insecticon, as that could make this so much worse. He stared back at his uncle, remaining calm as that was a key part. He smiled a little when it showed that Ichor understood what he said.
Good, you understand. We are family. Now, I want to get more familiar with you. Would you like to come to my home, Uncle Ichor?
He hoped that Ichor would do as Sky asked and that it wouldn't be any trouble. He had the authority to do whatever he liked, but he'd rather see it work without that being necessary. Right now he wanted answers so bad and his small insecticon instincts told him to keep Ichor fairly close.

"Yeah, Insecticon, it's not like we don't have enough vermin crawling around there already, why don't you just waltz in with no prior notification... Your nephew's only a Magnus and all so it's not like anybody's gonna complain," Whirl added, sounding rather sulky.
He leant back on a tree, tapping one of his odd feet. He was being unpleasant, but of course he was always unpleasant; at least he wasn't being violent.

Ichor's optics suddenly dilated as he swung his helm to face Whirl. He narrowed his optics as he stepped up and glared into Whirl's single optic, a deep hatred flowing from the Insecticon. His servos quickly reached to his waist and took hold of his dual scimitars, which seemed to eagerly wait to cut deep into Whirl, dripping acid as energon lit them up. Cocking his helm, Ichor spoke.
I see only one vermin... The one who told Megatron to use violence. I know you.. Whirl. I am not like Kickback or Skrapnel. Ichor said, almost hissing in disgust of Whirl.
