Sideswipe eyed the two.
Actually, it might be better to drive. I got an idea. Can you guys mask your signatures? I think it might be a good time to send out someone as bait, and I'm fast enough for it.

"I can't do a mass TP," Paradox replied. He hesitated. "And... I'll fight her, if we need to.
"Let's go. Delaying won't help."

Sydrone nods I'm an Assassin, swipe. I know a thing or two about camouflage he transforms revving his engine before saying Last one there has to register The silver Lamborghini Veneno drives off into the corridor, up the ramp and out into the surface Feels good to have the air in my intakes again. he says, heading for his old base

Paradox transformed. A floating alien serpent took his place and flew after Sydrone.

One does not simply challenge a professional racer to a race. Sideswipe transformed and blasted forward. Didn't he know that Sideswipe couldn't draw their attention without being there first?
::Mask your signals. I'll draw their attention.

Sydrone nods and taps something into his gauntlet. He would then seem to blur a little, as if he wasn't quite solid anymore Modified Phase Shifter. Doesn't make me shift, but it does mask my signature, and I'm kinda see-through. Which is a bonus. he says, explaining the technology to Paradox. ::You're good to go, Sideswipe.:: Sydrone says over the comms.

The Magnus looked doubtful So, you're saying that this "Sparkflare" could infiltrate a place where we don't even know the location of better than an Assassin, who's been trained to do the exact same thing their whole life. Sparkflare taught these skills to himself. I appreciate the sentiment, and am more than willing to try to recruit this Sparkflare, but do not go overstating his abilities, lest I be disappointed when we find him outside with a couple of throwing knives in his aft and a condescending note from a Master Assassin. Ultra says to Bumblebee. "I already did say that he was an outlier with the ability to track down anything, so he knew the technique since birth if you were paying attention."
Bumblebee looked at Ultra Magnus. It was not hard to see that he disregarded what Bumblebee had said at the start. So a small reminder wouldn't hurt. The cheek probably would, but Bumblebee couldn't help himself.
"What makes you think I am overstating his abilities?"

Paradox was slightly fascinated by the modifications that had to be done to the thing to work as both a signal shield and a half-working invisibility cloak, but he didn't need it. He activated his teleportation circuits, which moved his spark into a pocket dimension connected with his chassis. If he needed invisibility, he could just extend his teleport time.
::I'm ready,:: he said, more to himself than the others.

Ultra Magnus looked thoughtful for a second, he had a lot on his mind and didn't need his Second in Command's cheek, but he would let it slide, So, what you're saying, is that Sparkflare here could potentially outmatch an Assassin, who've been trained to do things like this since birth, and posses all types of Gadgets and tools, I mean, did you know Sydrone was working on a Phase Shifter that would mask his signature? I just find it hard to believe, that's all. But, like I said, if you can find him, then see if you can recruit him. I'll save the plan to the Solution Database. he says, saving a holo-projection of Sparkflare to the server.

Sideswipe shifted gears and got faster, the small image of High Grand growing larger and larger. When he was at the edge of heir sensor distance, he transformed, double checking that his signal wasn't masked. He crouched down, purposely moving like an amateur infiltrator. He kept darting his optics back and forth, and moving clumsily. When he arrived at the main door he stood straight, looking around as if attempting to find an entrance.

"Tell me when you get in," Paradox told Sydrone. "I'll TP."
***
A random thought popped into Artron's head. This was usually how Vampyricon's mind worked, but it was nearly impossible to spend a few millennia with someone without picking up some of their thought patterns. ::Magnus, if we get infiltrated, is the equipment the priority or is stopping intruders more important?::

Magnus listened to what Artron had to say and was about to respond when he saw an alarm go off. He checked the feed It's Sideswipe. Sunstreaker, apprehend him. Now. Artron, patrol the corridors and look for any other intruders. he commands, giving Artron an order and his answer at the same time. Sunstreaker, who had been leaning on the wall all this time just sighs and starts strolling, almost smugly, out towards the entrance If you insist. he says, casually, walking towards the door and unsealing it Hey, Swipey. You want to come in? Magnus has a nice cold cell waiting for you. Sunstreaker says, sarcastically.
Sydrone saw the event and, keeping a look out for any other Autobots, started dashing quickly through the trees and starts scaling the left hand wall of High Grand, keeping his signature masked with the modified shifter, he got to the top and opened the vent, sliding down the narrow ventilation tube and into the base. Been a while since I've been in here. Hating what Magnus has done with the place... Wait... Is that my room? HE'S USING FOR GODDAMN MAINTENANCE STORAGE? PRI US I HATE THAT DUDE EVEN MORE NOW! he monologues a little, before making his way down to the server room ::Paradox, I'm in.:: he whispers over the comms

On patrol in the halls is a 13.5 metre tall, bestial figure. Paragon strides through the corridors, his keen optics and other senses at the ready. And that's when he smells it. Energon. A guttural growl escapes the mech as he turns to head towards the energon. "Me Paragon... smell energon. Me Paragon... collect energon." He states, to nobody but himself. The energon in question was Sydrone's, and he could not wait to collect it.

Sydrone was carefully sneaking towards the server room, his hood up and his steps quiet. He thought he hadn't been detected, but that was when he heard it. A dinobot, whom's voice he recognised, growling
"Me Paragon... Smell Energon..."
Sydrone didn't stick around to hear the next part before he silently dashed towards the server room, keeping his steps light, but he was now almost bounding along the ground, each little jump as quiet as the last. Frag... I don't need you right now, Paragon. he thinks to himself, slightly miffed that he didn't count on Magnus improving patrols around the server room. He then radios Paradox, whispering ::Paradox, do not teleport just yet. I'll give you a call in a little bit. he whispers through the comm
Ultra Magnus radios Artron Artron, Paragon has picked up a scent. He's got this. Help Sunstreaker with Sideswipe's apprehension. he says, before radioing Paragon Paragon, it's Magnus. Who do you smell, big guy? he asks the dinobot.

Continuing to track the trail of the smell of energon to the server room, Paragon didn't respond to the comm. He was on the hunt now, and he required himself to be entirely dedicated to it. His large yellow form trudging through the halls, just as silently as Sydrone. Paragon wasn't a dinobot, he was a reformed hunter-class Decepticon. Sure, his robot mode was bestial, but unlike the Dinobots, Paragon excelled at skillful and precise melee strikes coupled with stealthily tracking prey. Those who had seen his 'attack mode' had never lived to tell the tale, and he hadn't decided to inform of any of the Autobots of it either, meaning not even Sydrone would know what surprise he had planned for him.

Sydrone starts hacking the console that was sealing the server room. It wasn't the latest model of code encryption, which surprised Sydrone as he attached a code splicer to the console and let's it do its thing. Sydrone would then realise that, if hacked the normal way, an alarm would have been triggered. Luckily, Sydrone's code splicers were designed to bypass any and all traps in a console. He would enter the server room, being careful to seal the door behind him, hopefully Paragon would be fooled into thinking he had masked his scent. He then opens a port in a nearby console and plugs in a Memory, and starts watching the bar slowly fill up. He was quite far away from the entrance, so if Paragon did think to come in here, Sydrone could just use different ports to complete the download and seal Paragon in the server room. If all else failed, Sydrone could blow the room. ::Paradox, you're okay for teleport.:: he radios Paradox.

"Teleporting? Isn't that cheating?"
A voice came from behind Sydrone. If the Assassin were to turn around, he would see a mech sitting down with his arms crossed and one leg on top of the other. The mech looked young and was chewing on an energon goodie. The mech had covered himself in a substance that looked like it would mask his energon, but the question of it worked. It was clear that the mech had entered this room long before Sydrone did.
"So, how does it feel?" ______________________________________
Bumblebee looked at the feed showing Sideswipe. The mech sighed. He had experienced enough scouting missons to know there was always more than one. The mech turned to Ultra Magnus. "Don't send anyone else in to fight Sideswipe. There should be more, there's always more." Bumblebee said mentally. He didn't want to say anything to disrupt Ultra Magnus's line of thought. But if his leader decided to send in another Autobot after Sideswipe then he would speak out.

Sideswipe took a few steps toward his brother, repeating the same thing over and over agin in his head.
Before I go in, I got a question.
Sideswipe motioned to rest his servos on his twin's shoulder, then made to grab his helm and slam it into the ground.
How's your face?
Sideswipe, regardless of success, sprinted in gung-ho and started firing randomly. He put his servos to his headpiece and spoke loudly.
::Sy, they know I'm here, I'll try and keep them away from you and the armory.::
Sideswipe mentally crossed his digits.

Sydrone doesn't pay any attention to the voice, carrying on watching the Memory's data bank fill up If you don't mind me asking, how does what feel... Sparkflare. Sydrone said, identifying the mech. Under Sydrone's hood and mask, his mouth would curl into a smug smile, Don't seem so surprised, Bumblebee got in contact with you, it was displayed on the Memory. Secondly, you never liked the Assassins. Only someone like you would be so antagonistic towards one who was fighting for the greater good. Sydrone says, confronting the mech. Before getting the comm from Sideswipe ::Thanks, Swipe::
((I'm using experience from the MU to identify Sparkflare. Hope that's okay.))

Ultra Magnus acknowledges his Second in Command with a nod I understand, Bumblebee, but I had a feeling THAT might happen. Magnus said, pointing at the monitor, showing Sideswipe smashing Sunstreaker's head into the ground.
Sunstreaker shrugged as Sideswipe said he had something to ask, maybe he wanted to register, oh no wait, his head was on a collision course with the ground. Sunstreaker's helm impacts the ground with pretty substantial force, he just lays there for a little, dazed, before starting to pull himself back up I did not see that coming, bro he says, a little dazed
