As the healing and exhausted Lancex was sleeping in the provided bed, the Autobots who were still awake began to talk about the new arrival. "It is always good to have another ally, if it is a human. Plus that Gundam will definitely come in handy for fighting the cons" Hotshot piped up, having recharged earlier in the day and so was fully charged still.
"Before he fights with us again, he requires a medical exam and his Gundam also requires a maintenance check" Red Alert added, concerned about the new arrival and the safety of his equipment. The others nodded, as it only made sense.
"It is terrible that someone so young has already seen so many horrors from war. That is not something to take lightly, as war changes bots as well as humans, from what I have learned. Even with him as a new ally, we must remember to respect him and what he has already gone though" Optimus offered up, adding his own two cents to the conversation. The others hadn't thought of that until Optimus reminded them.
"I just hope that since he is here, he will be able to help us with our mission here" Landmine added, hoping that this ally might help turn the tide of this infernal war. The others agreed.
"I just wonder how he and his Gundam robot/craft were able to end up in this universe and what exactly is his purpose for being sent here" Vector Prime added.
"And I wonder if Lancex will allow me to look over his Gundam, as it appears to be such a robust piece of technology" Scatter shot mentioned and the others continued their discussion regarding Lancex and the war. But then Red reminds them that none of them will be effective tomorrow if they don't get rest, even those who had recharged earlier, and with a bot of grumbling, they all changed and headed to bed.
Meanwhile, several hours later, with only the night sentry Autobots awake, Slugbug snuck in and was quite pleased with what he saw. Slugbug knew that this would be the perfect place for Lancex to find his real destiny. And so, seeing that Lancex seemed happy, Slugbug left some very important items that the bot knew Lancex would need – a laptop, a letter from Bug explaining a few things, a photo of Lancex's friends, and Lancex' wallet. And then, and mysteriously as Bug arrived, he vanished.
Nearby, in the other bedroom, Overhaul was sleeping and he found himself dreaming a strange dream regarding Lancex. It made little to no sense yet, but it did turn the bot on, as he stroked himself as he slept. He couldn't believe just how powerful this dream was and how real it felt. Little did he know that this dream was foreshadowing things to come. Unaware of what he was doing, Overhaul overloaded in his sleep and then remained asleep for now. Little did he realize where he would find himself come the morning.
