Growling like a wolf half starved Blot scans around, stomping and oozing. Feeling a bit lost as usual he scratches his head. Turning back to address his commander, "There ain't nuthin t'smash!". Frustraited the metal monster slams his foot into the ground knocking up debris. It then rains back down on him only but making him a bit more filthy.
The /other/ two-headed beast gazes up as Hun-Grrr makes his grand entrance, snarling out a greeting. "Khan." His heads bow reverently. "No prey have entered this area in quite some time. I grow restless with anticipation."
"Patience brother!" Shouts the Terrorcon Commander, "There will be plenty to hunt and plenty to destroy. You simply must excercise some patience." Sinnertwin is then acknowledged with a nod and a boisterous, "Brother!" In greeting before he nods his head once and waves dismissively with his cannon, "Have you located the Autobot Prey's Sensor system? If so we will anticipate no longer. No no. We will destroy it and free this Hunting Ground of their presence. It will surely arise their attention and perhaps some prey may even come to us!"
Sky Lynx arrives from the New Cybertron Highway <Far West> to the east.
Sky Lynx has arrived.
Pteranodon <Swoop> arrives from the New Cybertron Highway <Far West> to the east.
Pteranodon <Swoop> has arrived.
Pile-Up arrives from the New Cybertron Highway <Far West> to the east.
Pile-Up has arrived.
Pile-Up skips into the room.
Compile descends from the Sky above Magnaron Lake above.
Compile has arrived.
Sky Lynx flies in at low altitude. If you want something done, do it yourself, if you want it perfectly done, it must be done by Sky Lynx! or so he thought... and Sky Lynx wants this recon mission to be perfectly done. "Swoop, Pile-Up, keep your optics open. We're really close to Decepticons territory and I don't want any surprise"
Blot kicks a piece of metal, and looks back at Sinnertwin. Rubbing his chin a bit he querys, "Soh, been here long, brother?". Then turning back towards Hun-Grrr, "With awl three of us here, no bot nuthin' stands uh chance." pours out of that sewer Blot calls a mouth.
Combat Pose Tracker <CPT> has arrived.
Pteranodon <Swoop> keeps in line behind Sky Lynx. "Me, Swoop, keep good look-out. Maybe find Seeker for appetizer."
Pile-Up is rocketing along behind Lynx and Swoop, in a sort of vanguard position, radar going off and around "Well if you'd questioned me before, I would've toldja what saw in the crows nest capn' We be comin in on Decepticon sensor readouts! Ya-harrrrr"
-- Compile is with the rest of the cons, and is there to help remove the item if he is needed.
Sludge arrives from the New Cybertron Highway <Far West> to the east.
Sludge has arrived.
Sinnertwin transforms and points out across the 'shore' of the lake. "1.2 clicks East of here Khan. Grid zero-nine-two. Moderate defense....yes....a few laser emplacements, and a battery of anti-aircraft missiles. A minor threat to our glorious hunt." A wry smirk crosses his face. "It shall indeed be a glorious battle..."
Pyramid Jet (Fleet) flies low over the area. By (un)lucky coincidence, this just happens to be his patrol route. Certainly he's flying low enough to notice the activity of the Terrorcons below, but he's also high enough to see big ol' Sky Lynx flying again. He radios Hun-Grrr, his superior, down below. "Sir! I'm picking up the arrival of at least one large Autobot, maybe others," he reports in a clipped voice, his fear carefully hidden. "Preparing for engagement."
The two-headed creature transforms into the Decepticon Sinnertwin!
-- Compile is with the rest of the cons, and is there to help remove the item if he is needed. He jumps out of FLeet, and lands next to the Terrorcons and the lone Constructicon. He looks around and smiles as he sees the target, "So, who wants to take out the station?" he asks.
What is Scrapper doing out there? He vowed he wasn't going to try his hand at any more of this demolition stuff. It's just a bad deal, all around. And yet here he is. It must be an animation error, but Scrapper's stuck. Despite being a payloader, he looks unreasonably nervous, like he's expecting the sky to fall on him. It's something about the way his shovel twitches and how he rocks back and forth on his wheels.
The Khan nods his head at Blot, "Indeed, it is good to be on the Hunt with my brethren again." He agrees with Blot and gives him a slight smile at the thought of more hunts with his Clan again. It has been far too long, "The Prey will have to wait, however. We must deal with the Sensor System." With that statement he looks towards the Terrorcon Sentry, "You are a great HUnter, Sinnertwin. Thank you for that information. Your name will be spoken in the volumes of History that our Clan will be written into with great esteem and admiration. Your hunts will be glorious examples to our future brethren." His boastful and inspiring rant is interrupted by a radio messege from Fleet up above acting as their Eye in the Sky. The Khan grins with elation, "Brothers! Hunter Fleet has informed me of the presence of prey coming towards this location." He looks towards Blot, "It looks like we will Hunt this day!" When Compile arrives the mighty Khan laughs, "Little Hunter! I am happy you have arrived to participate today! We must destroy the Sensor Post before the prey arrives and makes a futile attempt at defending it! Onward hunters!" He waves his Sonic Cannon around as if he were getting the Cons to rally with him and march forward.
Brigand descends from the Sky above Magnaron Lake above.
Brigand has arrived.
Blot smiles a slimey gunk-ridden smile and begins to laugh in a manner that sounds like "Happiness" dying. With that he whips out his Acid sprayer, and gives it a twirl. "This iz jus' gunna be plain, fun!"
Sky Lynx looks down at the east shore of the Magnaron lake and roars, "Decepticons!!! They are heading towards the sensor outpost. We must stop them!" The large, fat-aft, obese, overweight dinobird dives towards the ground, right towards the Decepticons. Sky Lynx quickly notices the biggest threat among the Decepticons, Hun-Grrr. It's time to get some payback for what he did to Sunstreaker. Opening his jaws wide, he spits some fire at the terrorcon commander.
Sky Lynx strikes Hun-Grrr with Acetylene Blaster -- 1000 degrees.
Pile-Up grins to himself as only a flying motorcycle can as he rumbles along at full throttle, behind his most largness, Lynx, watching him open up fire on Hun-Grrr, then looks for his own target, spotting the seeker zooming along through the air, speakers popping up, thudding with the Top Gun theme... singing along as he transforms to robot mode while close to the ground, pulling a creepy little disk from his hip, and aiming for Fleet, throwing the little item, edges bursting into green laser plasma, flying in a tracking pattern, aiming for a wing "IIIII Wen't TOoo The DANGAH ZONE!"
Pile-Up misses Pyramid Jet (Fleet) with his Predator Laser Disc of DOOM! attack.
-- Compile smiles at Hun-Grrr and begins to move towards the Sensor as HG is hit by that fat-aft, obese, overweight Autobot, that makes Omega look thin. He jumps as the fire from the dinobird hits and he just moves quicker towards the sensor unit. He smiles as he has the perfect item to take care of that object, and if his brother ravage was here, you can bet, Ravage would place a bomb behind the bots like he did the last time, where Rodimus fell down the big hole after he started retreating.
+gtalk Yeah. I've done that. I used to be a pretty bad twink.
Pteranodon <Swoop> takes a good look over the selection of targets, and after playing a game of eenie-meenie-miney-moe, settles on the innocent looking payloader. "Me, Swoop, have great fun now! Stop Constructicon from smashing base!" His maw opens, and he dives towards Scrapper, a tongue of flame flying from his mouth towards the Green One.
Pteranodon <Swoop> strikes you with Roasty Toasty Flamethrower for 11 points of damage.
Sludge floats along in the sky, trailing along behind the faster aerial Autobots. He has this ability by convenience, to compensate for his slow land-mode, not for combat, although it can help. A large, slow smile spreads across his face as Sky Lynx announces the Decepticons' presence. From this distance, he cannot yet engage in melee combat, so he draws his laser rifle, for all the good it'll do. Carefully, because of his inexpertise with ranged weapons, he fixes a random target in his sights, taking the time to make sure he has a better than 50% chance of hitting his target. Then, he fires.
Sludge strikes Blot with Laser Rifle.
The Mighty Khan of the Terror Clan rushes forward. His heavy armored boots slam into the ground propelling his large bulk forward in a charge towards where Sinnertwin pointed out the Autobot sensor system. So the Khan is making a brave charge forward, trying to reach it before the Autobots arrive in an attempt to stop their work here. However, Hun-Grrr is a bit too slow on foot and will not make it in time. The Autobot prey known as Sky Lynx has arrived to spoil the Terrorcon's plans for the hunt. The Acetylene Blaster collides with the charging Khan and slows his advance to a complete halt. Hun-Grrr looks up and laughs in elation, "Excellent! The prey have come to us! A fitting change! We do not have to lure the prey out, they are coming to us for the hunt! Brothers! Hunters of the Decepticon Clan! The Hunt is on! Crush the Autobot prey and destroy the prey's sensor systems! For the Glory of the Clan!" More inspirational words from the Terrorcon Commander right before he raises his Sonic Cannon up. He levels the barrel towards the incoming super stuffed turkey and pulls the trigger, releasing powerful sonic waves towards his new prey.
Hun-Grrr strikes Sky Lynx with Sonic Cannon.
-- Compile smiles at Hun-Grrr and begins to move towards the Sensor as HG is hit by that fat-aft, obese, overweight Autobot, that makes Omega look thin. He jumps as the fire from the dinobird hits and he just moves quicker towards the sensor unit. He smiles as he has the perfect item to take care of that object, and if his brother ravage was here, you can bet, Ravage would place a bomb behind the bots like he did the last time, where Rodimus fell down the big hole after he started retreating. Now that was a big explosion and it totally rocked, and you cna bet that it rocked Rodimus's world. He just hustles as quick as a tape can and knows that he is goign to get jumped, probably by a big aft bot. So as he runs, he moves for cover and uses what he can as he approaches the Sensor unit. He should have just tfed into a tape, and have Fleet drop him over the unit, or have HG throw him. <no attack>
Pyramid Jet (Fleet) spins on his axis to get his wing out of Pile-Up's way as he twists and flies in the Junkion's direction. Oh, great. A Junk. Those Terran-tainted... frankly, Fleet doesn't know what to make of them. The last one he encountered kissed him, although the seeker much prefers this, an aerial engagement. He flies at the... flying motorcycle?... and then pulls up, laser fire from his wing-mounted weaponry speeding towards its target.
Pyramid Jet (Fleet) misses Pile-Up with his Wing Mounted Laser Rifle attack.
Payloader (Scrapper) has an 'oh slag' moment as he looks up at the sky with whatever it is that payloaders use to see. For what this payloader sees is doom on wings streaking right down at him. He transforms and protests, "Hey, hey! I wasn't going to smash any bases here." No, he was intending to clip some vital wires inside a sensor, but Scrapper is never one to let the truth get in the way of a good excuse. Dear Primus, why couldn't Long Haul be here? He likes getting his fool hide thrashed by Dinobots, or something close to it. Scrapper sighs and gets out his pistol to defend himself, doubting that he'll be getting any art supplies here.
The payloader unfolds into robotic form. His lower legs rotate away, revealing his upper legs. His arms come out from his side. His shovel flips onto his back. Finally, his head emerges from his torso, completing the transformation.
Blot feels the laser blast zing off of him as he looks at the shooter. Full tilt sprinting and making a mess he lets his Acid gun beam a burning rain at Sludge, "Ahm singin in duh raiiiin!" The gun is almost as powerful as Blots odor. And that ladies and Gents stinks on ice.
You strike Pteranodon <Swoop> with Constructive criticism through superior firepower.
Sinnertwin is thrilled with the fact that there's such a large.....selection of prey tonight, and yes large is indeed an understatement. Two Dinobots, a junkion, and....what?! How dare that overgrown pidgeon attack the Khan?! "You!..... cowardly prey. You dare attack the Khan?! Sky Lynx, it is time you learned your place!" Sinner may be small, but he's a tough little bugger and gutsy. He draws his assault rifle and doesn't even bother taking aim toward the massive Autobot. He simply sprays assault rounds in the general direction of Sky Lynx, surely he can hit the broad side of Sky Lynx. Afterall, it can't be any harder than hitting the broad side of....well, Broadside.
Sinnertwin strikes Sky Lynx with Assault Rifle Burst.
Blot strikes Sludge with Slime Gun.
Brigand descends on Magnaron East with startling swiftness as his head rises from the craft to survey the Decepticons' quarry. "An Autobot aerial.. excellent," he cackles in recognition of the Dinobot Swoop, bearing in his direction. An auxiliary laser opens from Brigand's side as his lowers. Laser fire peppers the air toward Swoop before arcing around the air for a flanking maneuver: It's hunting time.
Brigand strikes Pteranodon <Swoop> with Small Laser.
Sky Lynx grunts as he's struck by the sonic wave. That hurt! The bullets fired by Sinnertwin strikes him a few second later, but barely leave a mark on the dinobird's armor. However, he did hear what Sinnertwin said. Sky Lynx mutters, "It's time to bring this fight to the ground..." Transforming into a not so fat Cyberlynx, Sky Lynx dives at the terrorcons and attempts to shove his claws into Sinnertwin's throats.
From his previous form, Sky Lynx transforms into his Lynx mode.
Cyber Lynx misses Sinnertwin with his Raking Claws attack.
Pile-Up snaps his fingers at the missed predator disc, and then blinks at the incoming blaster fire, diving behind rubble to get the heck out of the way, frowning to himself now as he lets his disk continue its flight, tracking the Seeker, and then pulls his zooka off of his back, can't get close enough for melee see, he clicks a few settings, and then whirls from behind cover "Excellent response in this debate Mr. Bush! But I have one thing to say on the nature of this discussion!" he takes a moment, trying to lead, and then fires a massive high-explosive rocket from the zooka, bearing... an LED text scroller on it of all things, reading "My Point Is More Valid!"
Pile-Up misses Pyramid Jet (Fleet) with his JuNkZoOkA! My Point Is More Valid! attack.
Pteranodon <Swoop> is hit by Scrapper's return fire, only to then be shot from the air by Brigand. Decisions... decisions. "Me, Swoop, find out what Sweep taste like." With that, he banks around to attempt to line up with Brigand, flying full throttle, his maw wide open as he tries to take a bite out of crime.
Pteranodon <Swoop> strikes Brigand with Jaws Of Death.
Sludge's brow furrows, or whatever counts for a brow amongst a race of (mostly) anthropomorphic transforming robots, as he looks down in confusion at the splatter of...something that splashes over his torso. What's the point of that? He finds out as, a brief moment later, smoke hisses from his chest where the liquid fell and begins to eat away at his armour. Wincing slightly, he pats at the damaged area, then examines his fingers closely as residual traces of the acid eat small pits into them. He scowls, more irritated than hurt, before his expression changes into a feral grin. He tries to position himself above the Terrorcon and, clasping his hands above his head, deactivates his flight systems. Drop, descend, plunge, plummet. All these words and more, there is no true way to describe the sight of something as collosal as a Dinobot crashing out of the skies. Right. Towards. YOU!
Sludge misses Blot with his DEATH FROM ABOVE! attack.
Scrapper takes a step back, optic band narrowed. Okay, so a Sweep just took a shot at Swoop. Maybe Scrapper will get lucky and Swoop will bother the Sweep instead of him? Yes, victory! Scrapper punches the air. Go, Arachnae's bro, distract that Dinobot! He surveys his other choices and suddenly looks rather glum. The Cyberlynx? Ack, no. Sludge? Equally no. The Junkion? Well, Fleet seems to have him in hand in the harassment department. So Scrapper starts to sneak, as well as a clunky lime green robot can sneak, towards the sensor. Hey, that's what they're here to wreck, isn't it? <no attack>
With the Khan delivering his first blow, the sheer joy on the Hunter's face is quite readily seen. The Terrorcon Khan is enjoying every moment of the hunt that quickly unfolds and grows before the Khan. His Hunters are entering battle with the Autobot prey and the Khan can not help to feel a certain kinship with all those that have gathered to deal a blow to the Autobots! Terror Clan or Decepticon Clan, the Khan is pleased they have joined together for this Hunt. It's just something about hunting in a pack. The Khan is backed up by his faithful Sentry, and that pleases Hun-Grrr further. Hunting this massive bird with the aid of his Terror Clan brother will make the kill that much more enjoyable!
The Khan's Aerial Autobot attacker transforms and prefers to be ground-bound now in his Lynx form. That's fine for Hun-Grrr, as he now hops into the air and hovers there for a moment. Seems his target changed to that of the Terrorcon Sentry. The Khan growls, "Do not want to try and finish what you started, prey? I understand!" The Terrorcon drops down feet first towards the Lynx, in an attempt to crush the Autobot underneath him and deliver a series of stomps!
Hun-Grrr strikes Cyber Lynx with Vicious Stomping!.
-- Compile continues to run for the sensor as the targets are his fellow cons and the bots do not see him. All the better, he thinks as he ducks and moves, ducks and moves towards theSensor. He stops as he looks over some debris and sees the Sensor unit. He opens a panel on his arm and looks and nods aas he closes it, and then moves onward. Then he looks up, and sees a very big kitty coming down. He blinks, and jumps, for the Sensor, transforming as he lands in tape mode and slides to a stop. . o 0 (Ah snap.) he thinks as he sits there, and is now so small, looks like part of the area. After a few moments, he tfs and stays on his hands and knees and looks around, seeing ow most of the targets are engaged. He moves for the sensor slowly and will be there soon. First, he has to make it without being seen. <no attack>
Sinnertwin watches as Sky Lynx transforms and...well, for lack of a better term falls toward him at an excessive rate of speed. Sometimes, Sinner should really not open his big mouth and insert a random foot. In this case, Sky Lynx's giant paw is almost shoved down his throat. Oh sure, he may have been aiming for the torso but when Sinnertwin isn't much larger than his paw to begin with, that's a moot point. With grace that defies his appearance he leaps high into the air and archs over top of Sky Lynx's head. A brief burst of his anti-grav units later he's falling back toward the much larger prey. "You shall feel the fury of the brood Sky Lynx!" He draws his rifle back, attempting to smash the stock of it into the back of Sky Lynx's head as he falls past.
Sinnertwin strikes Cyber Lynx with Rifle Smash.
Brigand fails in his estimation of the Dinobot's speed as Swoop cuts him off and chomps into his side. "Aaargh! I'll collect your head from your disgusting corpse for that," he threatens while cutting back and forth through the air to loosen the Autobot's grip. Finally, he breaks loose and deftly flies up into the sky. Swoop may be familiar divebombing his prey, but now he's on the wrong side of this scenario as Brigand's main blasters send volleys of laser fire down from above.
Brigand misses Pteranodon <Swoop> with his Medium Laser attack.
As the Autobot glides by the monsterous Blot, the Terrorcon swings for the back of his head. As his fist draws near he declares, "Learned this from Ike Turner!" The slime coating his fist breaks free as his hand drew even nearer.
Blot strikes Sludge with Slimy Punch.
Pyramid Jet (Fleet) flies over Pile-Up's 'head', twirling again after he fires to allow the rocket to zoom past him. Inside, he is singing. Certainly, he's not landed a hit, but he hasn't been hit, either, and it's when his agility performs like it should that he's most at peace with who he is, and what he is.
And what he is, is a weapon.
The Seeker transforms in the air once the rocket moves past, swinging his legs forward to switch his direction quickly, then leaning back at the waist to completely point in the other direction, back towards the ground so that he's basically flying upside down on his return flight. But for a Seeker, who cares what direction is up? Fleet is no slave to gravity! A faint smile makes its way to the dancer's face as he closes the distance between himself and the Junkion. He has no snappy come-back because, frankly, he can't figure out what the other is talking about. All he has is a series of laser pulses, fired from his unusual angle.
Fleet misses Pile-Up with his Shoulder-Mounted Laser Rifle <Pulse Mode> attack.
Cyber Lynx is gang banged by two terrorcons (God that sounds wrong) but their attacks only do minor damage to the heavily armored cyberlynx. Hun-Grrr's foot leave a dent into his flank and Sinnertwin's rifle hits his shoulder. Sky Lynx shakes his head and turns his attention back on Hun-Grrr, "You want to be finished Decepticon? I shall finish you then." With a surprising speed, the cyberlynx leaps towards Hun-Grrr, swinging his claws at him.
Cyber Lynx strikes Hun-Grrr with Pounce Slash.
Pteranodon <Swoop> pulls up hard and banks into a barrel roll, pulling out and around with a snap twist that brings him right into his favorite position for divebombing. "Me, Swoop, keep head firmly on neck, thank you! Besides, me, Swoop, like Sweep sunny side up." With that, his maw opens and he sends a tongue of flame forth once more, headed towards the Sweepcraft.
Pteranodon <Swoop> strikes Brigand with Roasty Toasty Flamethrower.
Pile-Up woahs as he ducks and dives around the miriad of blaster fire coming from Fleet now "Currently experiencing plasma showers, with a definate chance of "Bite me!" showing in response to this weather forecast!" the Junk grunts as the Con gets close enough and he grins, leaping skyward, right hand sliding into his arm, chainsaw dropping into place and revving up to full speed "Yeah, I coulda' stayed, I could've been king... But in my own way... I am king... Hail to the king baby!" swinging his arm about, trying to cut a nice hunka hunka burnin' Fleet.
Pile-Up misses Fleet with his Chainsaw Hand of DOOM attack.
Sludge stumbles as the ground beneath his feet suddenly becomes mysteriously unstable, and somewhat lower than it previously had been, odd that. The punch from Blot goes largely unnoticed by Sludge as he tries to keep his footing. By stamping. Cracks spread out immediately around him as he inadvertantly damages the already-weakened surface beneath him. Not large cracks, or widespread, just enough to cause him to lose his balance. His arms flail wildly around him as he falls backwards...
Sludge strikes Blot with Oh, was someone there?.
The stomping only provides very minor dents in the heavy armor of the Cyber Lynx. The Autobot Lt. Commander is a worthy foe and Hun-Grrr shouts out gleefully, "Resiliant prey!" As if he was happy that it's taking a lot to do something to the Autobot. The Khan smiles broadly as the Lynx turns its attention on him. A step is taken back to brace for the inevitable attack... and here it comes. The Autobot pounces towards the mighty hunter and the attack the Terrorcon weathers puts Hun-Grrr on his backside. Large gashes have formed in the heavy torso and arm armor of the mighty Hunter, and how does Hun-Grrr respond? Laughter. The Khan laughs loudly, "Wonderful! Fight prey! Fight!" The Khan rolls over onto his stomach and raises his cannon up as he lays there. The Cannon's trigger is pulled and a burst of sonic energy is released towards the Cyber Kitty!
Hun-Grrr strikes Cyber Lynx with its Sonic Cannon Overcharge attack.
Sinnertwin lands on one knee and rolls aside, noting that the Khan is getting more serious about this battle. Sinnertwin considers this for a moment, and decides that he too should get a bit more serious. He transforms and bounds off a few yards, turning back toward the large prey as Hun-Grrr fires on him. One leap, a second, and with the third he puts himself in position to pounce toward Sky Lynx, slashing at the side of his head with his extended foreclaws.
Sinnertwin transforms into his two-headed creature mode.
Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> strikes Cyber Lynx with Foreclaw Swipe.
Fleet's arms were already 'above' his head (above being relative to his position), and something about the way he moves makes it seem almost easy to squirm out of the way of Pile-Up's falling chainsaw. That's the trick when you're a performer, of course. It's not easy, it never is, but part of the art is making it look so. And thus to viewers, all it takes is a 'simple' twist to the right (so he's flying on his side), a 'simple' squirm backwards ('back' relative to Fleet, of course), and a 'simple' raised knee as he brings it towards the Junkion who's falling by so close. No one sees the intense concentration as he attempts to work out these variables, and time alone will tell his accuracy.
Fleet strikes Pile-Up with Dancer's Knee.
Scrapper makes his way to sensor station. Surely, he must be a lime green neeeenja. Or maybe everyone else is just too busy beating each other's brains out to care about a lone Constructicon. He glances over at Compile and shrugs. Soundwave's kid. Whatever. Maybe a Dinobot will eat him? Nah, then Soundwave would just make another one. The engineer withdraws his trusty crowbar and sets to prying open one of the sensor's more convenient panels. If he can get a panel pried open, he can start cutting random wires. That'll screw it up, right? <still no attack>
In a battle for air superiority, elevation is key. At least that's Brigand's theory. However, he fails to demonstrate that tactic very well as he falls right into easy-baking distance from Swoop. Tendrils of flame scorch and melt his rear boosters after Swoop threatens to make him breakfast, but Brigand is still keen on the idea of the Dinobot's head on his barracks wall. Turning up the nose of the craft, Brigand makes a vertical U-turn above Swoop before transforming in mid-air. His wings and boosters guide his descent on a collision course with Swoop's back, clawed hands pulled back to rake across the Dino's neck if his fall was calculated correctly.
Brigand transforms into robot mode.
Brigand strikes Pteranodon <Swoop> with claw.
Blot taking a vicious smack to the face doubles back. It takes him a minute to regain his composure. Shaking his head he quickly grows mad, "You hit me, oh you gunna paaay!". Then drawing his foot back he declares, "FIELD GOWL!", and lets his foot cut the air ripping towards the Autobot Sludge. You can tell he's mad. It takes a LOT to hurt Blot.
-- Compile moves on and reaches the Sensor and he looks around. He stops and then begins to check the sensor. He moves around it, looking for an opening to get inside the thing. He just also had an evil Idea, and it might even work. Too bad this thing has to be destroyed. HE moves and spots Scrapepr. "You know, its a shame we have to destroy this, or we could splice ina nd use there own sensors to spy on them. You know, maybe learn what there Sensor frequency is and all." and he thinks as he finds a panel and is glad scrapper is infront of him. "How about I just connect and download what I can and then we blow it? That would work." he says a she opens a panel and begins to mess with the wires. As he looks and moves, he pulls a cable out, and connects it to the wires as he moves to find the right ones and then starts to record information that he can get as he pulls out a bomb from an arm compartment. <no attack>
Blot strikes Sludge with Gooey Kick.
Cyber Lynx is about to jump at Hun-Grrr's throat when he' struck by another sonic wave, the cyberlynx is stunned, which allow Sinnertwin to slice into his armor, adding more damage to Sky Lynx's armor. He then slowly raises his head, looking at Hun-Grrr, "...you...coward..."
Pteranodon <Swoop> attempts to bank out of the way of Brigand's descent once he realizes what is happening, but is unable to get completely out of the way. The claws strike, but they do little damage, barely scratching his armor. The only effect is has, it seems, is to seriously tick off the Flying One. "Aaaah! Me, Swoop show Sweep how to use claws! No charge for lesson." Firing his boosters, he maneuvers his wings to bank around and head towards Brigand. His feet extend out, the claws bared, ready to rip into Brigand.
Pteranodon <Swoop> misses Brigand with his Claws Of DOOOOM attack.
Pile-Up blinks as he misses and frowns, then OW!s as he is sent flying backwards from fleet with that Kick, optics narrowed as he shakes his head, looking up at the seeker, and then towards the big Mech making his way for the sensor setup, blinking as he flips to his feet and starts hustling that'a'way "Warning! Warning Will Robinson! He 'canna do it cap'n! We don' have the powah!" pointing with one hand, sending his laser disc at the Constructicon
Pile-Up strikes you with Predator Laser Disc of DOOM! for 6 points of damage.
Sludge blinks up at Blot from where he's sitting sprawled on the floor. He hit him? Oh good.. wonder when. He watches with interest as Blot's kick connects to his side, splattering a healthy spray of...just what the hell is /that!?/ Sludge again extends a wary finger to prod at the substance that adorns him. This one turns out not to be corrosive, although it's a close thing. Still grinning that vicious smile, he twists, turning himself sideways and fully extending his foot, slamming it out with some force at his messy opponent.
Sludge strikes Blot with Mega Kick.
The Sonic Cannon is pulled back down in an effort to let it recharge. Its clipped to his hip and the Khan pushes his bulk up. This is right after Sinnertwin bounds in to finish off their One-Two Combo against the Cyber Lynx. The Khan laughs and reaches behind him. He pulls out his polearm weapon and laughs some more, "We must stop playing with our prey, Brother. We should put it out of its misery!" Then of course the Cyber Lynx states the wrong thing. The Terrorcon is many things, but a coward he is not. The Khan takes great offense to Autobot Prey's declaration, and his optics glow bright yellow as his anger starts to rise. The Khan emits a loud bellowing battle cry in response to Sky Lynx's statement and rushes forward, passing by his brother and moving in to give Sky Lynx what's coming to him! The polearm is held near the end of the pole and the Khan raises it above his head and swings it menacingly as he advances on the Cyber Lynx. When in close quarters the Khan swings downwards, attempting to cleave the Autobot prey in two.
Hun-Grrr misses Cyber Lynx with its Axe of Angselik attack.
Scrapper taps the crowbar against his hand, the panel now opened. Well, he wasn't planning on blowing up the sensor. He just wanted to slice lots of vital wires to bits. Blowing things up... shudder. Scrapper has had bad a experience with that. Putting on his best ranking officer voice, he says, "A bomb might be overkill here. Just a snip a wire here and - ack!" That hurt! Well, it stung a little. Where did that come from? Scrapper spins around, searching out the source of the attack. The Junkion? That's not so terrifying as some of the foes out there. He decides to take a chance and send a shot the Junkion's way.
You strike Pile-Up with Mixing it up with a Masterful shot.
-- Compile moves further into the sensor unit and all that can be seen, is a pair of legs kicking as the tape moves inside. "Now, don't do anything stupid Scapper." he states back as he gets farther in to find the nice juicy power core and sets the bomb on it. He pushes some buttons, and thinks as he sets the timer to go off in thirty Earth minutes and then he starts to wiggle out. However, he gets stuck. "what???" he says as he tries to move. "OH SNAP!!!"! he says as he begins to trash inside the unit and pulls wires and stuff as he is hit by a few and is shocked. He jitters as the currents go over his body. That..tickled." he states as he slowly inches his way out. "Scrapper, grab my feet, and pull me out will ya?" he asks, not knowing that Scrapper just got hit by Pile-Up. Now you see a sight, a pair of black legs and feet sticking out of a silver tower and kicking like he is swimming....<no attack>
Knocked back and into a pile of rubble Blot begins to dig his way out. Moving piece after piece he grows even more angry. Thinking to himself, 'Thats twice he hurt me...' as he tosses the largest piece back behind him. Now free he bolts after the Autobot running with full intent to end this. As he draws near he cups both of his slimey mettalic hands together he makes a wide swing at Sludge, "TRY THIS AUTOBOT!"
Blot misses Sludge with its Blot Skoosh! attack.
The two-headed beast snarls as Sky Lynx speaks. "You /dare/ speak to the Khan that way?! We shall see just how resilient you are Sky Lynx...." Resting on Sinnertwin's back is a rather nasty looking plasma-cannon. As he leaps away to make certain that Hun-Grrr doesn't make contact with him instead of Sky Lynx. The cannon whirrs to life, powering up with a hissing of white-hot energy that slowly builds around the muzzle and is then discharged toward Sky Lynx's flank. Yes, he's drawing attention to himself, but he knows it must be done so that Hun-Grrr will have his opportunity to end this battle.
Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> strikes Cyber Lynx with Plasma Cannon.
Brigand fires his anti-gravs as the Dino attacks, turning evasively to the side as Swoop flies by him. "Appropriate the lesson was free," he chortles at the failed attack. Reaching behind him, Brigand wields his vulcan rifle and steadies his aim on the Autobot. "Unfortunately, your wings won't be worth much roasted," snaps the sweep, deliberately aiming for his prey's more vulnerable wings to take him out of the sky.
Brigand strikes Pteranodon <Swoop> with Vulcan Rifle.
Fleet's smile gets wider as his attack lands, and wider still as he's not fired on again... but wait! Decepticon technicians are trying to blow up the sensor post and... and it's Fleet's job to give them room to do it. Dammit. The seeker pulls his knees to his chest, cuts off his thrusters and tumbles, straightening out again once he's pointed in the right direction. And this time the right direction is Pile-Up. "Oh, no you don't!" he mutters as he again fires at the Junkion, this time using a very low setting to his weapon as he concentrates, mostly, on drawing the other's fire away from the Constructicon.
Fleet strikes Pile-Up with Death By A Thousand Papercuts.
Cyber Lynx recovers just in time to jump out of reach of the deadly axe. That would have left a big big crack in Sky Lynx's head. "Playing with me? Do not insult my greatness Decepticon! You cannot hope to defeat me!" The Cyberlynx unfolds as he transforms back into his dinobird mode. In mid-transformation he is struck by a burst of plasma, which burn into his back armor. Sky Lynx grunt but he manages to leap at Hun-Grrr, ignoring Sinnertwin for now, and trying to shove his claw into the terrorcon's chest.
From his previous form, Sky Lynx unfolds and transforms into huge and scary Dinobird.
Sky Lynx strikes Hun-Grrr with Raking Claws.
Pile-Up is nailed by scrapper... and then Fleet, being torn too and fro by the alternating attacks, swaying and thumping, one arm going off as he hits the ground, coughing up mech fluid and he groans a little, taking a moment to begin pulling parts of his body back on, spot welding them where they rest, fingertips opening on his left hand, spraying down some of his injuries with junk-goo.
Pile-Up steps back and takes a moment to reattach various pieces and parts of his body...
Pteranodon <Swoop> lets out a screech as his wings are riddled with holes from the incoming fire. The damage's effect is immediately, and he begins to wobble as he flies, but with skill, and a lot of willpower, he keeps himself somewhat airborne. However, his rage is now unbelieveable. Words are not appropriate at this point, only actions in his mind. And actions he takes, bringing himself around to get a rather decent line on Brigand. With a mental command, his missile launcher click as they arm themselves and unleash their warheads towards the Sweep, a pair of white smoke trails in their wake as they streak towards their target.
Sludge kicks out again, not at Blot this time, but at the ground beneath him, pushing himself backwards and out of the way of the swing. A small scatter of droplets are left behind in the wake of the attack, covering Sludge in yet more grime and gunk from his eccentric foe. Climbing to his feet, he again clasps his hands above his head, bringing them down in a powerful arc towards the Terrorcon. Not quite so dramatic as death from above, but we can't have everything. "Me Sludge smash you good." My goodness, it speaks!
Pteranodon <Swoop> strikes Brigand with Dinobot Greeting Card.
Sludge strikes Blot with layin' on the hurt.
The Terrorcon Commander missed with his Halberd. How did that occur? The Prey was supposed to take his execution like a Decepticon would! But... since Lynx is not a 'Con the Terrorcon was expecting too much from him. Instead he avoided it like the weak prey that he is. And to further compound the insults that is this fight with Lynx, he dares to talk of his greatness and then attack him? The Khan is slashes hard by the claws of the Dinobird and he falls down yet again, with a thundering sound of metal hitting ground. He roars loudly and initiates his transformation sequence, "You will fall at my feet, prey! The Terror Clan will feast on your corpse!" The two headed monster is fully transformed and the beast opens its serated maws and releases a hellfire!
Hun-Grrr executes the command to transform and the Terrorcon shifts and folds into his intimidating alternate form.
Two-Headed Monster <Hun-Grrr> strikes Sky Lynx with Blazing Inferno.
"I'm busy," Scrapper replies briskly, watching the Jukion carefully and baffled as to why Compile would insulted Scapper. Yeah, Scapper's a doofus, but he's not even here. Soundwave must be making those tapes defective these days. Unsurprising. Now, he hasn't been attacked, so he maybe could go help Compile, but the siren lure of art supplies calls Scrapper. Just one more attack, miss or hit, and he'll go back to the sensor. Scrapper closes some of the distance and tries to bash off a piece of the Junkion. C'mon, those guys fall apart all the time. How hard can it be?
You strike Pile-Up with Looking to Scavenge some Autoparts.
-- Compile blinks from inside the sensor. "Your busy? What the hell....." and then he hears the fire. "Never mind, I can get out of here, honest." he says as he looks as the timer ont he bomb, and blinks as he is slowly inching his way out. By the time he does get out of this Sensor, he may have only a few minutes to get away, before that thing explodes. Well, he has been in a few explosions, so it will not hurt....much. He inches and listens as he connects to wires that are not cut, and gets zapped by the live wires in the same process.
Sinnertwin cackles gleefully as Hun-Grrr transforms. "Yes prey, it's time to feed the brood!" Certainly not a stunning conversationalist, Sinner dashes forward as Hun-Grrr's maws emit their flame, he too opens his mouthes and cackles again. "Burn Prey, BURN!!!!" Fire erupts from both his maws, attempting to ensure Sky Lynx indeed feels the heat.
Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> strikes Sky Lynx with Flame Breath.
Now the Junkion attacks now one, but it is Fleet's job to see that it stays that way. Or to insure that if he does attack someone it is (*sigh*) Fleet himself. Stupid factory building him as a stupid warrior. The Seeker flies in very very low at this point, heading right for the Terran-tainted odd-ball. Rather than attacking, he zooms around the Junkion, positioning himself between it and Scrapper as he fires an array of warning shots in the enemy's direction. "Sir, please concern yourself with eliminating the sensor post. I'll try to keep him busy."
*Sigh.* Sometimes it sucks to be a warrior. <no coded attack>
Brigand smirks in satisfaction as he riddles the Dino's wings. Unfortunately, this gloating distracts him from noticing a pair of missiles on either side of him converging on his position. His radar detects the approaching threat, but by that time it's too late. Brigand gapes in frozen terror as one missile blows up to the side of him and the other directly into his abdomen. Sweep parts explode into the air as Brigand is consumed in a billowing wave of flame. But is he down for the count? As the smoke clears, the sweep still hovers in air, but with massive damage. A feeble attempt to ward off the Autobot comes via his rifle, firing a few defensive rounds in the general direction of Swoop.
Brigand misses Pteranodon <Swoop> with his pistol attack.
Blot oozes his way back on his feet giving heavy shake of his head to clear out the gunk. And a lot of it goes flying. Blot then slams his fist into a piece of metal and states, "I'VE HAD IT!" and so he begins to whip into his Creature form. Then with a quickness stands to belt out a horrible noise that is followed by a pillar of fire.
Blot flip-folds over himself almost looking like he's devouring part of himself. The metal and slime quickly snapping down into the form best know as the "Monster". The beastly Blot cuts loose with a sound that could only be described as "happiness dying".
Bots
Blot strikes Sludge with patented Flaming Belch.
Sky Lynx is burning!!! ouch! Then he goes higher in the sky, hoping to extinguish the fire. Sinnertwin adds his own fire to the attack and Sky Lynx starts to smell like a rooster! He finally turns his attention towards Sinnertwin and he doesn't look happy at all. The large dinobird opens his jaws and spits a very very hot fire jet at the terrorcon sentry.
Pile-Up is bashed aft over tea-kettle by the next blast from Scrapper, one optic flying out of his head amongst the various pieces and parts that now litter the ground, he sits up and blinks at Fleet as he jumps in front of Scrapper. Getting to his feet he snorts and spits out a big sized glob of fuel, wiping his jaw as he gets into a stance "AND NOW FOR THE KICKOFF!" running full tilt at Fleet, aiming a kick for the groin.
Pile-Up strikes Fleet with spike toe kick.
Sky Lynx strikes Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> with Acetylene Blaster -- 3000 degrees.
Pteranodon <Swoop> manages to avoid the blast from Brigand's pistol, his riddled wings keeping him from doing too many fancy maneuvers. Compensating with his engines, he pulls around to stare right at the Sweep, as his eyes begin to glow bright with energy. "Me, Swoop, pay Sweep back for putting holes in wings!" His eyes unleash a pair of laser beams that streak across the sky, intent on adding to the damage he's already inflicted on Brigand.
Pteranodon <Swoop> misses Brigand with his Evil Eye attack.
Sludge reflexively raises one arm to cover his face as the flames wash over his body, searing into the pits scored into his armour by the acid earlier. On the plus side, it /does/ bake the scum that has covered him since starting this fight, drying it out and peeling it off him in flakes. as the tongues of flame subsude, he lowers the arm from his face and, in a quick movement (quick for Sludge, at any rate) brings up his /other/ arm in a wide sweep towards the 'monster.' His hand, however, is no longer empty, clenched in his mighty fist lies his Energo Sword, the glow of the blade flickering over his and his foe's figures as it sweeps around.
Sludge strikes Blot with Energo Sword.
Renegades...hrrr Cons
Scrapper quickly scoops up a piece of Pile-Up, chuckling to himself. Now this was a worthwhile trip! Oh, um, and sensor. Right. Who does that Seeker think he is, that he can nag Scrapper to get back on tasks like that? He snaps at Fleet, "I know what I'm doing!" Scrapper then scurries back over to the sensor, and inquires of Compile, sounding a bit bored, "Still need any help getting out there?" <nanana... no attack>
The Khan roars out a challenge to Sky Lynx after he's thrown a torrent of flames in the Dinobird's direction. The Khan stomps his forelimbs against the ground, as if he were having a tantrum... but's only a method of psyching himself up. That's at least how he sees it. Others who do not know Hun-Grrr as well would swear he was having a tantrum. The Khan's heads lower and he takes a double-bite out of the ground, either ripping up some of the surface or picking up some debris from the Hunt. The Hunter begins chewing and while he chews, he spews out another torrent of flame towards the slightly cooked Dinoturkey inbetween chews!
Two-Headed Monster <Hun-Grrr> misses Sky Lynx with its Flame Breath attack.
-- Compile mutters, "Yes, any help would be welcomed, as I am ... *ZAPZAP* getting *ZAP* zapped in here." *ZAPZAPZAP* and small sparks are seen, and the inside is lightening up from the live wires hitting Compile. And he is still slowly getting out, and will be here a while at this rate...
The smaller two-headed beast is blasted something fiercely by Sky Lynx's own flames of doom. His armor is baked, melted a bit, and the sheer impact of the attack sends him crashing to the planet's surface. After a moment of smoldering on the metallic ground Sinnertwin leaps back up, transforming with his rifle in hand. After chambering one of his rocket-propelled grenades he takes careful aim for Sky Lynx this time. "Time for the birdy to fall Khan!" He offers only one warning. "Move, now!" before letting loose with a shrapnel filled warhead.
The two-headed creature transforms into the Decepticon Sinnertwin!
Blot angry as he can be, and reeling from the awesome blow he was delt takes a step back. It looks like he might have been seriously hurt. He takes another deep breath, and without warning lunges out at Sludge with his gapping maw wide open. The slime sprays out of his mouth like a bad lisp as he goes to get himself a bite out of the Autobot.
Sinnertwin strikes Sky Lynx with Shrapnel Missile.
Blot strikes Sludge with Headbutt.
Fleet did say 'please', but there's obviously no room for politeness in the ranks of the Decepticons. Even if the Seeker were inclined to respond to the Constructicon, he's currently distracted by a... kick to the groin. Why do so many of the Terran tainted focus on that area? Yes, several of the leg controls are in that region, but Fleet is hovering on antigravs, and while the hit is enough to send him back and up a distance (since he was in the air), it's not enough to do serious harm. Ah, well, something to ponder later... or simply to be thankful that Pile-Up isn't going after something important, like Fleet's laser core.
Once Fleet's righted himself he raises his left arm, the movement seeming lazy despite its speed, and just mutters, "Whatever," as his weapon 'clicks' over to solid ammunition.
Fleet misses Pile-Up with his Rail Gun attack.
+gtalk Fleet might have said please, but he was still telling Scrapper what to do. ;)
Brigand still has some fight left in him as he falls beneath Swoop's eye lasers, while his head snaps back, writhing in pain as more internals start to malfunction and explode up into his chest. His aim is failing in sync with his internals, and a long distance shot will likely end up as a waste of energon. Transforming back to a sweepcraft, his boosters ignite and speed him closer toward Swoop, albeit more slowly. Closing the gap between them, Brigand transforms again and anti-grav boosts the resy of the way with his fists outstretched towards the Autobot's head.
Brigand misses Pteranodon <Swoop> with his Punch attack.
Sky Lynx easily dodges Hun-Grrr's attack and he's about to mock the terrorcon when Sinnertwin's missile blast him out of the sky. The large dinobird crashes into the ground and needs a few minutes to get back on his feet...slowly. Before the Decepticons get a chance to attack again, he leaps back into the air, but he's not as graceful as he was a minutes ago. He doesn't lose any time though and he charges Sinnertwin and swings his tail at the terrorcon's head.
Sky Lynx misses Sinnertwin with his Tail Whip attack.
Pile-Up ducks and swivels backwards, arms flailing as if he were in The matrix. Getting back on balance spending a split second to consider his options and he then flips forward, towards Fleet, aiming to land on the raised arm, and run up it, waving towards hello to Fleet as he aims a nice uppercut to the Seeker's jaw... Sure he said sorry, but Fleet forgot one important thing, he didn't say Bah Weep Gra-nah weep nini-bong... after all.
Pile-Up misses Fleet with his The Club Arm Smack of DOOM! attack.
Sludge stands impassively as Blot lunges towards him, all gaping maw and sharp, pointy teeth, then laughs loudly as the Terrorcon's teeth skitter off his armoured torso leaving little more than a scratch in their wake. Although he is gunky again from the slavering, huh. "Me Sludge say you, Decepticon, weak!" While Blot is still near him, he draws back an arm, eschewing his clutched Energo Sword, and pistons it forwards, aiming a gut-punch from his hip with some force. Wait... is Blot tall enough for it to be a gut punch? Oo-er.
Pteranodon <Swoop> rolls to one side just in time to avoid Brigand's fists. With a quick snap of his thrusters, he swings himself around and opens his maw. "Sweep not done cooking... me, Swoop, say me need to add more heat." Another tongue of flame flies form his mouth, hoping to engulf the Sweep as he passes by.
Pteranodon <Swoop> misses Brigand with his Roasty Toasty Flamethrower attack.
Sludge strikes Blot with Gut- or maybe not -punch.
Looks like the Terrorcon Sentry was able to keep Hun-Grrr from being the target of more redicule from Sky Lynx. The Khan thanks him by charging forward as soon as Lynx starts to move towards Sinnertwin. As the aerial Autobot goes in for the strike the Khan intends to move in for his own strike. The mighty hunter roars as he charges, the battle cry he has been hooting and hollering during this entire hunt. As he closes in he leaps into the air, back clawed feet scraping against the ground and helping to propel him into the air. As he closes in on Sky Lynx, his two heads start biting and his forelimbs start slapping and slashing maddly! All the while the Khan is laughing and having a grand ol' time!
Two-Headed Monster <Hun-Grrr> strikes Sky Lynx with Thrash.
Scrapper moves to roughly yank Compile out of there. Having a cassette gets in the way of the serious work of sabotage! Suddenly, something occurs to Scrapper, "Did you stick a bomb in there or just talk about it? If so, is it armed? That's kind of important."
Scrapper succeeds in grasping Compile, throwing him off-balance.
-- Compile is grabbed and pulls out, "Yea, there is a bomb in there," he says as he is zapped again. *ZAPZAPZAPZAPZAPZAPZAP* "And yes, it is armed. to go off in another 25 Earth minutes." he states. "WE were to destroy the sensor right?" he asks as he mentions, "It's on the power core the bomb is."
Being that Sinnertwin would prefer to keep his head he again falls forward into his creature form. Seeing his leader begin a wild assault on one of Sky Lynx's flanks, Sinnertwin does the same by leaping up toward the massive back of Sky Lynx and biting, clawing, and slashing with his pronghorns, all aimed at Sky Lynx's neck. "DIE bird! DIE!"
Sinnertwin transforms into his two-headed creature mode.
Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> strikes Sky Lynx with Mauling.
With surprising agility for even a Sweep in his condition, Brigand darts safely up and out of range of Swoop's flamethrower. "I'll have your head yet!" While not the most probable outcome at this point in time, he still makes an effort to dislodge the pteranadon's head. Positioning himself above his adversary, Brigand starts quickly accelerating downward, the heels of his boots aimed toward the neck of the Autobot beast.
Brigand strikes Pteranodon <Swoop> with Kick.
Blot takes a thunderous blow to the abdomin. The blow was strong and it bends Blot around the fist. Funny though, it seemed to make his optics blink..like he was going to...And then he gets sick all over Sludge. Yarfing out the corrosive Acid from his mouth. (With just a hint of cheese)
Blot strikes Sludge with Slime Gun.
Fleet moves arm out of the way, waving it to the right, and follows it with his whole body, chin-included. This ain't the Matrix, and Pile-Up sure is no Neo. The dancer continues the motion into a full pirouette, just a few astro-feet above the ground, both pedes pointed, left leg extended slightly in front of the right as he puts a lot of unnecessarily flourish to the move. Make it seem easy, even when it isn't...
While he's in the process of spinning Fleet raises his left arm and lowers his right so that, once he's again facing Pile-Up, he has that arm pointed at the Junkion. "Pest," the seeker sighs as he fires.
Fleet strikes Pile-Up with Disruptor.
Pteranodon <Swoop> takes the blow from the kick in stride, and with a roll of his body, accompanied by a screech of pain from his tender wings, Swoop tries to take a chunk out of Brigand's foot with his teeth. "Me, Swoop, say before, me keep head firmly attached! Me rather have Sweep foot instead." His jaws begin to slam closed, hoping to get a mouthful of Decepticon.
Pteranodon <Swoop> misses Brigand with his Jaws Of Death attack.
Sky Lynx roars in pain as he gets bite twice by Hun-Grrr and then by Sinnertwin. The dinobird is showing sign of major damage but he keeps fighting, the Decepticons must be stopped! However the Terrorcons are now holding him. But Sky Lynx as more than one trick in his bag. He transforms into his cyberlynx mode, freeing himself and jumping at Hun-Grrr, trying to bite his throat...well one of his throats.
From his previous form, Sky Lynx transforms into his Lynx mode.
Cyber Lynx strikes Two-Headed Monster <Hun-Grrr> with Sky Lynx's Big'Ol Bite.
Pile-Up acks and ows as he is hit with the blaster as he drops back towards the ground, more chunks shaving off and hitting the ground, he snarls up at dancin' joe up there and jerks his head backwards, that disc of his that has been blazing around the battlefield since the start coming in a wide arc, aiming for Fleet's leg, trying to jam itself into one of his hover repulsers, trying to take away his sky advantage. "RAAAAAID!" said in response to the insult.
Pile-Up strikes Fleet with Predator Laser Disc of DOOM!.
With a faint hiss, the, uh, vomit -there is no other word for it- slews over Sludge's own abdomen, although this 'internal' kind is obviously far less corrosive than the type Blot uses for weaponry. Sludge slowly wipes a hand over the sticky mass and flicks it off, more to show his opponent how harmless it is than to protect himself. He stands there grinning, watching his opponent carefully before casting a slow sweep across the combat zone with his gaze. "Maybe me Sludge find stron opponent, not waste time on weakling." Then, suddenly, he throws himself forwards, ducking low and rounding his shoulder towards the Terrorcon. "Or maybe me finish you fast!"
Sludge strikes Blot with Shoulder-barge.
Brigand pulls his foot back and narrowly avoids the snapping jaws, taunting after another miss, "You're losing your concentration.. as much as can expected from a Dinobot." Hovering above Swoop, the sweep arms his vulcan rifle and unleashes more firepower, again firing at the damaged pteranadon wings.
Brigand misses Pteranodon <Swoop> with his Vulcan Rifle attack.
The four heads of the two Terrorcons are certainly taking a bite out of the Autobot prey aren't they? They're not even waiting for him to be dead! They want their turkey now! Of course Sky Lynx isn't turkey no more. And this makes people sad. He's now a Cyber Lynx, and no one likes to eat Cat! Except for Blot. The Khan roars out in pain and in laughter as the Lynx escapes their grasp and goes after the throat of one of his heads. The Terrorcon Commander's other head, the one not bitten by Sky Lynx lashes out, hopefully before the Autobot can escape out of his reach. That head wishes to take yet another chunk out of the Autobot's considerable armor! Even more plating to chew on it seems! The other head starts to recover and continues chewing on some of the pieces of armor and plating that it had acquired earlier.
Two-Headed Monster <Hun-Grrr> strikes Cyber Lynx with Devour.
Scrapper looks a little dismayed. Oh, it had to be a bomb. That's just peachy. In his dismay, he drops Compile, thankfully not back into the sensor, though. Scrapper stares back down at the tape and chastises, "You should have informed the rest of us on channel! We'll need to get out of the blast radius before it goes off... what is the blast radius, anyway? And are you sure we have 25 minutes?" Scrapper remembers well what happens when a bomb timer is set incorrectly. <yet again, no attack>
Sinnertwin manages to actually land on Sky Lynx's back, but as his prey transforms he's forced to leap away, landing gracefully and clicking his talons across the metallic surface of the planet he considers his options. "Larger prey.... less agile prey......" One of his heads smirks as the other states. "Weakened prey, injured prey....Yes. It's time....." Sinnertwin takes off in a sprint toward Sky Lynx leaping and putting his full weight into the assault, with both jaws opened wide he attempts to go for jugular, ripping at the protective armor with his fangs in an attempt to get to the vital energon lines hidden beneath.
Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> strikes Cyber Lynx with Jaws of Doom!.
"What are you TALK-GRAH!" Fleet starts, snidely, before he is interrupted by a laser-disk thingy snapping at his toes. The dancer immediately jerks back his right foot, the extended, vulnerable one and hisses. He makes a mental note to not get confused when Junkions say stupid things. Otherwise, he'd spend all his time confused.
Although the attack is not enough to knock Fleet out of the air, it isn't enough to unsteady him a bit. "Blast it all," he grumbles as he takes works to gain altitude, weaving a bit as he does. Even as he flies upwards, he fires down at Pile-Up, still working to keep his attention.
Fleet misses Pile-Up with his Shoulder-Mounted Laser Rifle attack.
Blot vanishes out of reality.
Blot has left.
-- Compile looks up as he is dropped. "Yea, I se tit right, and the blast radius will about oh..." and he stands up and looks around. "About half the distance to that Junkion of there." he states. "It's a tiny bomb, not my big one. Now, if oyu want damage and a new pond here at MAg East, I'll have to work on a bigger one, The size of ..." and he loosk at the sensor "Oh the sensor there. It does have a nice power core, so the radius will be to just past that Junk's position. It'll leave a pot hole here, and will probably weaken the area and make it dangerous for the bots to travel." he says as he opens his radio.
<Decepticon> Compile says, "hey guys, there's a bomb in the sensor unit, and it has about 25 mintues before it goes boom. If you do not want to get hit, tryt o be out of the blast radius. Which will be about oh as wide as Rodimus is tall."
<Decepticon> Hun-Grrr says, "Hear that Hunters? Soon this hunt will be ours!"
<Decepticon> Sinnertwin says, "Our prey must fall first Khan! I beg you not to order our retreat until we can take a proper trophy from Sky Lynx's broken frame"
Cyber Lynx is triple bitten once again by the terrorcon and once again, he roars in pain. He takes a few seconds to gather his strength and to launch one last attack, in an attempts to bring Hun-Grrr down with him. He leaps at the terrorcon, trying to shove his claw into his body while he bite his throat.
Cyber Lynx strikes Two-Headed Monster <Hun-Grrr> with Pounce Slash.
Pteranodon <Swoop> manages to keep his wings from being battered more than they are, and pulls up and around to bring his eyes towards the Sweep once again. "Me, Swoop, find concentration soon enough!" With another glow of energy, he unleashes another pair of beams towards the Sweep.
Pteranodon <Swoop> misses Brigand with his Evil Eye attack.
Pile-Up snorts as he can't seem to ground the con, watching him gain height... then something on his back goes "DING!" he blinks and grabs his bazooka again, taking aim once more "Yummy yummy! I got some lovin' in MY Tummy!" firing a rocket with a smiley face painted on it this time.
Pile-Up misses Fleet with his JuNkZoOkA! attack.
Sludge nods with satisfaction as his opponent crumples to the ground in defeat. He raises his head to take in the battlefield once more. A Junkion facing off against the Seeker, and more Terrorcons giving Sky Lyx a hard time. Well, we know where more of the challenge lies, don't we. With that wild grin still plastered across his face he falls backwards, reconfiguring into his imposing alternate form. Transformation complete, he lets loose a fearsome roar, screaming his jubilation to the starry void, and charges, thundering into the fray.
Sludge falls backwards, his body twisting and reshaping itslef into a robotic duplicate of a prehistoric creature.
Brontosaurus misses Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> with his Stomp your enemy, crush him under your feet! attack.
The Terrorcon Commander's head pulls back after getting lovely chunk taken out of Sky Lynx. The Khan munches happily inbetween laughs at the Autobot Prey. The Khan swallows the bits of metal and debris in his mouth. Hun-Grrr's two heads grin wickedly towards Sky Lynx, showing off the many teeth in the giant maws of the two-headed beast. Of course the Khan can not smile for long. The Lynx goes after him again, leaping at him and slashing wildly with its claws. The Two heads of the monster seem to go sperate ways as if making room for the Lynx to leap between them and lash out the more solid portions of armor on his wide backside. The smaller Terrorcon Monster takes the slashes like a Terrorcon should, with laughter and glee. The gashes formed seap mechafluid and lubricant as Lynx has severed a minor fuel line underneath that plate of armor. The two heads of the beast lash towards Sky Lynx and his forelimbs come up as the monster rears up and attempt to grasp Sky Lynx and pummel him with a barrage of slashes.
Two-Headed Monster <Hun-Grrr> strikes Cyber Lynx with Evisceration.
Sky Lynx falls to the ground unconscious.
Partly through luck and partly through speed, Fleet is able to jink backwards just in time to avoid the second rocket thrown at him this battle. He stretches his arms away from his sides and then swings them in front of him, bending forward at the waist to quickly turn himself upside down. He falls-dives-speeds down towards the Junkion, faint smile returned to his face just before his face is hidden by his transformation into tetrajet. "Sweet gift. Allow me to return the favor," he says softly, unleashing his own rockets at the nadir of his fall just before pulling up sharply.
Pyramid Jet (Fleet) strikes Pile-Up with Rocket.
Scrapper decides that standing right next to the sensor is a Bad Idea, especially given his current distaste for bombs. So he runs, and as he does, it occurs to him that running away from the sensor might give it away to the Autobots that they have done something untoward to the sensor. And... did Sky Lynx just hit the ground? So he turns to runs in vaguely the direction of Hun-Grrr, although he tries to keep away from the core of the fighting, and he calls out, "Nice work!" Yeah, Scrapper was just running away all along to congratulate Hun-Grrr. That's it. <nope, no attack>
Brigand laughs in superiority at his foe, "Foolish Autobot!" The Sweep falls backward into himself and transforms, tearing an arc through the sky with rekindled ferocity. "Even if I fall, you still lose!" he barks in reference to the successfully planted bomb. Bearing down on the Dinobot, blasters arm on the front of the sweepcraft and reign laser fire down on the Decepticon's quarry.
Brigand transforms into a sweepcraft.
Both of Sinnertwin's heads grin broadly as he rips loose a section of armor from Sky Lynx's neck just before being thrown loose. Suddenly though, Sinnertwin hears something. "Thunder? On Cybertron?" One of his heads blinks and looks down, noting that it isn't thunder. The very ground beneath him is quaking in protest to the approach of the super-sized Dinobot. He notices the ungainly gallop of Sludge just in time, leaping back away from him and tossing off a snapshot from his plasma cannon. If Blot's claws could not bother this monster then his surely will not. He will do what he must to survive until the bomb goes off.
Brigand strikes Pteranodon <Swoop> with Medium Laser.
Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> strikes Brontosaurus with Plasma Cannon.
Pteranodon <Swoop> is stuck by the laser blasts, but despite having been hit several times, other than his holed wings, he's still not too worse for wear. This he uses to his advantage, and banks around to make one last ditch attempt to show up the Sweep's taunting. "Me, Swoop, say it time to put money where mouth is. Me done fooling around." His missile launchers click into place yet again, and another pair of warheads streak forth, leaving behind their white contrails of doom as they seek their target. As they head off, Swoop only hopes they work as advertised.
Pteranodon <Swoop> strikes Brigand with Dinobot Greeting Card.
Compile completes arming Bee Swatter(6) and sets the timer to go off in 20 minutes.
Compile gently puts Bee Swatter(6) down.
Bee Swatter(6) grows ears and can now hear.
-- Compile looks as Scrapper runs and just pushes a button on his arm, and and checks the timer. "20 minutes... Perfect" and he closes the panel and then heads for the fight. "You know, I want to knock some heads,a nd get some pieces to keep for myself. ANd will you look at that, Sky Lynx is actually quite. Oh wait, he is down." and he smiles as he looks for a target and scans the area as he flies upward. "Who to hit, who to hit.
Brontosaurus blinks as the Terrorcon leaps nimbly out of the way, even though he couldn't see him! How did he know he was there? This riddle wracking his processors, Sludge slams his feet down, skidding himself to a halt as the return fire from the Terrorcon sears a rent in his armour, capitalising on the damage that Blot managed to do. Hissing from the pain, he lunges forwards, mouth snapping open to reveal rows of jagged, razor-sharp teeth.
Brontosaurus misses Two-Headed Creature <Sinnertwin> with his Dino Bite attack.
Pile-Up blinks and his optics get very big as Fleet opens up on him, lips making an "O" face as he is slammed into, the explosion sending pieces and parts of his body flying everywhere, and himself reeling backwards, an arm flying free, and most of his internals exposed, systems reporting failures left and right, then he sees Sky Lynx going down, firing off a radio message to Sludge before he transforms and starts to head back easterly
"Pile-Up! Overdrive!" Pile-Up falls foreward, arms forming into a set of battering rams over the wheel that extends and falls into place from the top of his left shoulder as the wings of what look light a fighter jet lower down from his back the JUNKZOOKA! becomes a jet engine on his back and extends backwards. seat moving over the front half as the dashboard rises up while his head pulls in, being replaced by a headlight and handle bars. His legs become the backwheel and its guard. The engine fires to life, looking cool!
Pile-Up begins retreating, leaving himself vulnerable to parting shots from Brigand, Pteranodon <Swoop>, Pyramid Jet (Fleet).
Cyber Lynx tries to jump out of reach of Hun-Grrr but he's too damaged, too slow, with a loud metalic noise, he falls on the ground, unconscious.
The Khan's attempts at ripping and shredding the Autobot Prey seem to have been successful. As the cooked, sliced and pretty much pounded Dinobird finally succumbs to the might that is the Terrorcons ganging up on their prey! The Khan's heads lift up into the air and roar a victorious battle cry for all on the Hunting Ground to hear. If they did not witness Sky Lynx fall, they will notice the roar of the triumphant Khan. When Scrapper comes his way and says what he says, "Thank you mighty Hunter! His downfall was to the glory of the Clan and all of our brethren! This hunt shall be ours, Comrades!" He boisterously shouts to all on the hunting ground. The two heads of the beast slowly lower and spot the Terrorcon Sentry taking some abuse and being distracted by the Dinobot known as Sludge, "Prey! Leave this Hunting ground with your wounded!" The Khan then points his heads towards Sludge and spits out a pair of objects made of metal that looks like chunks taken from Sky Lynx. These projectiles are meant to encourage the Autobot Prey's egress.
Two-Headed Monster <Hun-Grrr> strikes Brontosaurus with Crude Spit-up Missile.
Sinnertwin is just about to let loose with another burst of plasma when an internal alarm chirps at him. "WHAT?! Khan, My energon is almost depleted. I must withdraw and refuel..." He doesn't sound very happy about it at all, but really, what choice does he have? He knows the kind of armor that a dinobot has, and knows he's ill-equipped to fight him at this point. Thus, he transforms and leaps into the air, heading back to base dejectedly. Blasted fuel reserves!
The two-headed creature transforms into the Decepticon Sinnertwin!
Sinnertwin begins retreating, leaving itself vulnerable to parting shots from Brigand, Junk Rocketcycle, Pteranodon <Swoop>, Scrapper, Pyramid Jet (Fleet).
Pyramid Jet (Fleet) is still IN the zone, Fleet is still ready to engage, and Pile-Up is... retreating? Fleet is so shocked that he doesn't have the presence of mind to fire a parting shot. Fleet's just not used to people retreating from him! And Sky-Lynx has fallen... and the bomb is set. For once, it sounds like a clear victory, even with the Dinobots still fighting. The tetrajet circles the battlefield, making sure to stay well away from the Autobot sensor tower, as he takes a round to survey the battlefield and decide what foe, if any, he needs to re-engage. <no attack this round>
Brigand is blanketed in another cloud of flame as Swoop's missiles detonate around him, critically wounding the already vulnerable Decepticon. The sweepcraft, after a few moments, emerges from the explosion, looking like a scrapped craft straight off the planet Junk. "You will fall against the might of the Pack!" Swoop may not have managed to destory the Sweep, but was successful in climbing Brigand's To Terminate list. Noticeably, Brigand is without his pack, and so retreats back to base with a vendetta to repay in his future.
Brigand retreats from the area swiftly, outdistancing all pursuit and parting shots.
-- Compile just flies onward and looks and decides not to attack anyone this time out. A shame, cause he so wanted a piece of someone, oh well, there is always next time. aNd his bomb will be going off soon. :) That is always fun to watch.
Scrapper decides that perhaps he'll just play cheering section for the rest of this battle. The Junkion was the only one that Scrapper really felt confident enough to tangle with, and he has since retreated. Well, Scrapper's got a piece to remember him by, heh heh heh, so that's all right. Sky Lynx is down, but there are still two Dinobots amok. He glances at Sinnertwin as the monster has to retreat and an idea hits him, "Well, we seem to have this battle well in hand. I shall go prepare the medical ward for our conquering heroes." Isn't that just the perfect excuse to retreat once he's done his techy thing and exercised his crowbar? Scrapper thinks so, and he folds over into payloader mode to leave the area.
In a simple, utilitarian transformation, Scrapper becomes a payloader. His lower legs fold over his thighs. His arms tuck along his sides. His head retracts into his body, and his shovel folds down into place.
Scrapper begins retreating, leaving itself vulnerable to parting shots from Brigand, Junk Rocketcycle, Pteranodon <Swoop>, Pyramid Jet (Fleet).
Junk Rocketcycle limps off for iahex, oh so badly hurt, leaving a big glowing fuel trail.
Junk Rocketcycle moves east to the New Cybertron Highway <Far West>.
Junk Rocketcycle has left.
Bee Swatter(6) bursts in a violent explosion.
Bee Swatter(6) has left.
You are caught in the main force of the explosion and take 42 points of damage.
Pteranodon <Swoop> fared well against the Sweep, but when it comes to bombs and nasty explosions, he gets swatted away rather easily, his armor scorched and pitted, his wings smoking from the heat. With a screech of pain, he heads to safer shores.
Brigand vanishes out of reality.
Brigand has left.
Sinnertwin has disconnected.
Pteranodon <Swoop> vanishes out of reality.
Pteranodon <Swoop> has left.
