((The escape pod was all mechanical, not circuits, therefore no way to trace it to any faction.))
Once Taggon had stepped into view, Contrail was in complete shock. Taggon?! This is a situation. Contrail walked to his beacon and played with some settings, he switched it to emergency alert and had it tag Taggon. The tag gave the Axiom a clear image of who he was. He stood up and holsters his assault rifle. Why do you just walk in without even being totally ready to fight? Of course you have backup, no Autobot... He looked to Taggon's insignia to confirm his guess. Would be so nonchalant about approaching Decepticons without backup. But I am doing something right now, if you don't want a fight, you would leave, now! He said attempting to intimidate the Vehicon because he knew this fight would be too much for him. Looked to the other Vehicon, as to remind them of his previous statement.

He wont trust at Contrail, or 'Startthruts' at all, but at least he doesn't want to involve himself in a battle. Good news. Thinks the same. He only was exploring the planet by himself but the destiny got him in the path of Contrail.
Well, at least he shows a negative reaction at the autobot, at least this means he won't be against me, or at least,the evidences say so.
When he sees Taggon, the commands inside his head are in shock, Evo would remember the autobot insignia on the Tag's armour, and a decepticon trooper he has to attack to any bot. But the other command orders him to never shoot at a vehicon of any kind. Sadly, in there is not an order that would exempt the autobot troopers. Still, he can use his voice box to communicate to the other vehicon.
I keep my reasons of my standing. to myself, but thanks for ask. I would make the same question for you, but as I reserve my own words to myself I won't have to expect your answer as well. Also, the presence of more living forms are present here, and I don't mean the natural organic life of this location, or at least that is what the radar says.
The blaster remains in the servos of the vehicon with one of his 6 fingers (3 in every servo) close of the trigger. The internal vehicon radar could detect the presence of more than 1 autobot, aside Taggon, but sometimes the radars would lie, sometimes not. Anyway, he keeps holding his blaster, static like a sculpture. Inside his mind the commands of 'kill' and protect' are trying to get a priority, but due the different nature of every command, Evo is unable to choose one for himself.
I'll only say my reasons does not involve bellic purposes, but for some reasons decepticons has a horrible reference in the collective mind.

Dammit! Sydrone thinks to himself, opening the comm channel to Validia He knows we're here. he says quietly, so only Validia would hear him. He was watching every little move of the Decepticons, his visor painting possible weakpoints. Sydrone noticed that 3vo was being very nervous and he had a lot of tics going on about him. Sydrone would train his sight on the cons, he then said to Taggon Got you covered, boss. he says, not needing an answer but just so Taggon knew he had an easier escape. But he couldn't help but wonder what was in the pod Wait for the boss' orders

((Vamp! Noooooooooooooo! ))
Taggon simply stood where he was, raising an optic ridge behind his mask. The intimidated attitude of the new comer was strange. Taggon knew that he was a dangerous mech, but he never considered himself to be someone that anyone would freak out over. No one did that t Astrinal, and she was twice as dangerous. As the mech frantically tapered with a his pod, then stuttered a few words as he held a gun at Taggon, the vehicon just stood his ground, undaunted.
"I never said anything about fighting. I honestly do not intend to take my absence either." Taggon answered the scared looking mech. Taggon's own visor could trace the pod to any kind of Autobot or Decepticon model he had ever seen. Then there was this mech, who was scared of him for some reason or another. As for Three-vo, he seemed to take the situation with some hesitation, though his voice demonstrated he was keeping his cool. It was his body language that told Taggon that inside Three-vo, the mech wasn't entirely certain what action to take. In time, if the mech was strong or imaginative enough,the vehicon programming would slowly peel away. Three-vo perhaps would realize this as he was able to think more and more, but he most likely wouldn't be able to help himself...IN Taggon's optics, Three-vo had the potential of becoming something like a late brother. The scared mech? He was strange--from what he saw, he wasn't getting along with Three-vo all that well, and didn't react well to him. But for what reason?
::Good. As you wait for my signal, try to trace the energon signature. :: Taggon sent a texted message to Sydrone via the soundless Autobot frequency. The mech would receive it in the corner of his HUD. Taggon hence continued to step forward, closer, reducing the space in-between them by ten feet.
"Ironically, it is up to you whether a fight will start or not. You are the one with the rifle pointed at me, new-comer." Taggon said, inspecting him from behind his visor. Taggon eyed Three-vo's own weapon, waiting for either the vehicon or the stranger to make one wrong move. His body indicated he was simply out for an evening stroll though, and his voice was as calm as ever.

Sydrone could see the tension building but he still couldn't find a trace Dangit! he exclaimed in a whisper Boss, no fix on the sig, this is some heavily encrypted stuff. Gonna need more time. he says, through the comm, training his sights on the Decepticons Waiting for your mark to fire, boss. he says again. Zooming the ACOG scope in a little.

Zoomed out, Validia saw something interesting. A radio wave source. Nothing emits light with that wavelength, unless it's transmitting a signal. She fired at the transmitter, and its casing started to melt.

(sorry for the delay, school is getting me busy)
I'm only following the protocol what has been programed inside my processor, I can't do nothing to change that.
He wont change his posture, or his tone of voice. Being in front of a possible decepticon. Evo or 3V0 would follow the protocol writen inside of him without think twice.
What do you want of me, you don't understand!? I've created to shoot the ones of your side!
In few words, that percentage of 'free will' would be considered as failure in the Evo mental system. A lazy programmation of a prototype which has been more focused in the desing of his hardware. Sadly, he's the prototype.
Maybe he would be a little hypocrite, a different 3V0 is when he is alone, and another one when he stands beside a 'decepticon'. Those commands on his head are more predominant than his own thoughts.
Sometimes, he wonders how a vehicon like Taggon can act like that, to be able to choose everything he wants without any impediment. Does he has been programed by autobots? will he continue being loyal to his faction if he has those commands of his head removed?. He would like to know, but at the same time he's worried. I wont think in this kind of blasphemies again, 3V0, just focus and obey.
Then, he says to Contrail. Leave now that you can, but I have to consideration your issues about registration to later.

Contrail thought about the circumstances and decided, may as well prevent a fight, he needs to keep Taggon here as long as he can anyways. Technically you're not getting in my way. You fire, we fire got it? He said, putting away his assault rifle completely, but priming one of his missiles. He may as well talk to keep them occupied while he awaited backup, he was nervous, but was composed enough noe to hide it completely. Why is this location so important? Seems quite a few bots are here, and also, why is there no combat? I thought or factions were "bitter rivals for centuries" or whatever. It's not that I want a fight, I'm just a little lost here. Contrail said, silently keeping track of the sky.

((Sweet Vamp.
And no worries Evo.))
::When you fire, target their lower spines or legs Sydrone and Validia. But until I give the signal, both of you will do no such thing. Peace, as shaky as it is, is still in play.::
Taggon sent the soundless message to both Autobots in the previous fashion that he had. The vehicon had heard the two other mech's replied to his own words. How Taggon had liberated himself form his programming was a very long story--it was actually still occurring, since their were traces of the Decepticon thought-patterns and vehicon instincts still built into his processor. Not erasable due to his long history as a vehicon, and still being a vehicon.
"Vehicons naturally despise attacking one another. As for you..." Taggon stared at Contrail, slowly stepping forward more by another few feet. The vehicon's visor seemed to be locked onto the mech's own optics. The vehicon's weapons were fully visible, though he never drew them. "You have been acting in a way that is about to start conflict. You are pointing weapons, and you act as if you know something about me--I saw the fear in your optics seconds ago. You know who I am , or something about me do you not?" Taggon asked as he cocked his helm. "I can see you have collected yourself now. Anyone would fall for that little mask--but all vehicons wear thicker masks, and not just physical masks. We all know when we see something fake, like your small talk for example."
Taggon stated as if he was picking up a valued item like Contrial's pocketbook, and handing it back to him. "Another peculiar fact that I notice is that your pod cannot be traced to Decepticon or Autobot origin. I believe I recall at one point in my time, a certain handful of mech's preferring to work from the sidelines." Taggon went on levelly. It had been the way he had suddenly collected himself, the way he had twitched before. The stranger had screamed it all out to Taggon without saying a word of the truth. Taggon wasn't making any threats though. But his voice held some warning in it. If Contrail was going to start playing innocent now, his timing was awful.
"Small-talk only means one thing the way I see it: a time passer. You are either slightly uncertain of what to say because of my arrival, or you are waiting for something. Maybe both." Taggon continued smoothly. "So if you truly do not desire a fight, then you will kindly walk away, meet whoever it is is going to pick you up, and be on your marry way." Taggon finished. He hadn't answered Three-vo, instead saying aloud what he had already pieced together from what he knew, and exploiting it for public consumption. Perhaps Three-vo would have a few more questions for Contrail now.

As everyone had been talking, a silent shuttle had flown down from the sky, and had landed behind the trees. The shuttle was cloaked, for both scanners and visual aids, thanks to the Avacon tech applied to it. Quietly, out treaded a mech armored in dark russet and maroon hues. An aquatronian by build, the mech snuck through the trees, creeping up on the scene.
Instantly, Vaqus recognized who was who from both his spy-days, and his earlier days. Save for the other vehicon and the person who obviously came from the pod--and who was accused of waiting for something. That was Taggon for you. He tore people down, one way or another. Or would try to. Vaqus headed for the Autobot at the west side, the one the Autobots called Sydrone--The mech had hid himself alright, but using heat-signature vision, to make sure he had all people in the scene in his sights, Sydrone showed up rather easily. Might as well dispatch of the guy while he could, or distract him so the other Avacon could book it.
wordlessly and soundlessly coming from behind, Vaqus pointed one of his already transformer servos at the mech, the servos' setting his heavy machine guns, set to stun rather than to be equipped with the nastier weapons Vaqus had. The quiet Aquatronian thus fired his EMP shot at Sydrone's exposed back.

Watch your backs, he said. That's not hard. Validia grabbed the corner of her cloak, flicking it. Microbots flew out, sticking to her graphene armour and turning her invisible. They creeped along her rifle and it disappeared from view, apart from the mouth of the barrel, which would be quite hard to spot.

Sydrone rolled out the way and sent a text based message to Taggon Position compromised, Vaqus is back. Sydrone sent, before smirking, drawing his blades Vaqus. Come crawling back, have you? My Creed employs me to dispatch you. So that is what I'll do. he says, slashing at the Vaqus' outstretched arm

[She's approved.] Zoomed out, Validia saw something interesting. A radio wave source. Nothing emits light with that wavelength, unless it's transmitting a signal. She fired at the transmitter, and its casing started to melt. OOC: When a character is in the Character Applications [Under Construction] section as Validia currently is they are considered unapproved. Rping with a character will unapproved is against the forum rules (as you've been told before), you where already informed that he was not approved on Aug 17th by Skyspray.

[As far as I knew, she was in the character list. Some people use the search, y'know. Skyspray made a comment about her being invalid. I asked him to give a grace period of two days. He didn't. I didn't know he didn't. Thus the confusion. Now I know she isn't. And can I just comment on the fact that you came to give me a warning instead of approving the app?]

(*Yawns* I'm kinda tired, but I delayed this post due my poor ability think in something good, creative, or at least, decent. And for last, sorry for the short post and the lack of color text)
For a moment, the vehicon felt confused. He knew in there was some Autobots infiltrated in the same place, and that was confirmed in that moment that sydrone rolled to avoid the attack of Vaqus. Hi points the blaster at the location other young autobot, but then he saw at the origin of the shot. Another mech in the same place? He consulted his mental dattabase to know the identity of the newcomer with the few data he got. No con, no not, or any known neutral. Still, the few information was,t few to know the real identy of the mech.
He looked confused at Contrail and Taggon. Picking his another blaster, he posted at t sky, trying to track the new signal. Then, he speaks to both mechs.
-Do you have an explanation of this?
That was the only thing that he could mention. inside his engines, he feels in there is someithing suspicious in Taggon, and in some point, in Contrail.
