'Com'
"Speech"
"Telepathy"
The temptation to race out of the Nemesis like a bat out of hell into open sky gnawed at Skyfall's processor making her silver wings twitch. The lithe femme was hunched over a data pad reading her most recent scan on her now stable but unconscious patient. Skyquake has proven to be an interesting case, one, with the amount of damage the tall bot had received from the fatal blows Bumblebee had made. And two, with the sheer size of the mech. Skyfall knew she should have left the Decepticon to his demise back at the canyon, she would be saving Dawnbreaker so much grief. But Primus be damned if she wasn't going to try and help those in need.
'Hey Sky how are you holding up?' Orange optics off lined momentarily as she took in a slow intake of air into her systems.
'Dawnbreaker long time sister, I thought you went dark on me for a few days. I'm fine tho should probably recharge soon..' Skyfall stretched relieving the pressure on her aching joints and bearings. Placing the data pad down Skyfall chose to walk around the war ship to quell some of her built of energy.
'Hold on incoming transmission I'll have to talk with you later, sorry Sky.' Dawnbreaker's connection with the silver Con was disconnected leaving the flyer empty and missing the sound of her spark sisters voice.
'Skyfall requested at control bridge' Soundwave pinged the flyer. Putting her data pad down Skyfall made her way to the bridge, once the doors slid open she heard a bit of the transition from Bulkhead to Wheeljack. A smile formed under her face mask.
"A war hero huh?" Starscream said wickedly, "Makeshift!" Skyfall watched the strange Con walk up and begin the transformation with the help of Soundwave. The rest of the transition being played as the robotic form shifted into that of the white Wrecker. "I to know how to prepare a proper welcome."
Skyfall laughed and walked around the newly changed Makeshift her claw dragging along his shoulder struts slowly. The Mech shivered under the flyers touch, "Well well should I get ready for a guest?"
Starscream flicked a wrist at her nonchalantly, "Yes you may be of service to me when I'm finished asking our guest some questions."
Grabbing Makeshifts face she tilted it to each side slowly, "Not bad looking for an Autobot, kinda short for my taste."
"And what Primus tell is your taste?" Starscream raised a brow ridge at the grey Seeker with slight amusement.
"Wouldn't you like to know," Skyfall snickered and walked up to the Decepticon Leader and tapped his wing with the tip of her claws. "I never knew you were interested in me sir."
Sputtering Starscream took a step back his wings twitching in obvious discomfort, "I-I most certainly am NOT!"
"Cool your jets Screamer I'm teasing you, Primus your so dramatic." With a parting wave she began to walk out of the control bridge. Her link with Dawnbreaker was flaring up on her. Making her processor swim and make her grab purchase on one of the control panels, a servo to her faceplate she vented heavily.
"Ma'am are you alright?" One of the Combatacon's working that panel addressed her with caution.
"I'm fine," Skyfall gritted out righting herself and walking out of the control room with haste. Her servos clenched, Skyfall made her way back into the med bay slumping against the door with a heavy vent. 'Dawnbreaker honey buns please for PRIMUS SAKE CALM WHAT EVER IT IS YOU ARE DOING!'
She felt the crackle of their bond before the grey and yellow McLauren responded, 'Sorry, were just watching a new arrival get swarmed by Cons and the blasted Ground Bridge is broken so we can't even help him!'
'Yeah that's a REAL pity,' Skyfall rolled her optics dramatically. 'Blow Optimus a kiss for me~'
'Sky I love you with all my spark but NO, he thinks I'm weird as it is,' Dawnbreaker begrudgingly mumbled.
Skyfall laughed full heartedly her wings taping against the door till there was no longer a door and she fell back into a solid frame. 'Shit balls, Dawn I'll call you back.'
'Soundwave: You left quickly, the Autobot has been captured and is with Starscream now.'
Skyfall tilted her helm up to look at the underside of Soundwave's visor, her wings fell and she bolted up from his chassis. "I-I had a patient to take care of…and thank you."
'Soundwave: False.' The TIC stood still and silent as ever, Skyfall felt a shiver run up her back strut causing her wings to twitch. 'Soundwave: You were speaking to your spark sister, the Autobot. Further communication not recommended, could compromise the plans.'
Aghast Skyfall took a step back glaring at the TIC with fuming orange optics, "I would never betray the Decepticons!"
The TIC stiffened visibly and walked away leaving the medic confused and a bit shaken. The door slid closed on its own and Skyfall was left in the silence of the Medbay. 'Soundwave: Not Decepticon plans.' The message pinged loudly on her HUD, her brow plates furrowed and she tilted her helm in confusion. Soundwave was definitely weird.
Just then her HUD pinged again this time with the sensors connected to Skyquake, his neuro-activity waves were spiking he was waking up! Bolting from the Medbay she raced down the halls of the Nemesis right past Soundwave, into the hangar she transformed and flew for the abandoned mine. Luckily for the femme Seeker she was able to fit in the main portion of the mine in her Alt mode her engine making the walls shake and tremble as she drifted corners and wreaked her suspension. Stumbling into the room she went up to the monitors and tweaked a few things running diagnostics on the spikes. All the wounds have been healed, Skyfall had made sure of it.
Orange optics were glued to the stats, distracted by the incoming data she didn't catch the large jet move till he had her pinned to the wall by her neck. Skyfall's claws went quickly to the large servo around her neck cables clinging to it in shock.
"Where am I?!" Skyquake yelled glaring at the small Seeker, she didn't have time to answer because Soundwave slammed right into the large Decepticon knocking all of them over. "What is the meaning of this? Soundwave?"
Crouching low Skyfall had, had enough of this crazy attitude, "Do you always attack your Doctors?" Glaring at the flyer as he had Soundwave's cannon pressed to his helm.
The large Decepticon looked at Skyfall then to Soundwave he looked at the TIC with confusion. Then his optics widened, Skyquake looked to Skyfall bowing his head slightly, "I was in the wrong with my actions and I ask for your punishment."
Taken back Skyfall stood up and rubbed her neck cables softly, "I don't want to deal with that, but know this if you so much as look at me in a hostile way I strategically wove a detonation unit in your central wiring. You will meet your maker in a matter of kilks."
The green jet looked shocked and touched his chassis lightly, "I see why Starscream made you second in command."
"Soundwave you can stand down…" Skyfall looked to the Communications Officer wearily as he removed his blaster from Skyquake's helm and stepped back. Her antenna flicked up and she tilted her head slightly, "What in Primus name…" The walls of the mine rumbled with the sound of an engine at it's limits, it was getting closer all three Decepticons positioned themselves at the ready.
A dented up Combatacon stumbled into the room, "Ma'am! When you and Soundwaves comms when down Starscream had sent me to find you at your last known location. You are needed at the bridge immediately." Shaky and wounded the Drone clutched the wall. Skyfall scanned the Drone and proceeded to seal the claw wounds and tossed the purple Drone over she shoulder making her way out of the small section of the mine to the large corridor to open up the ground bridge.
'Starscream my liege would you not take your anger out on the Drones honestly you make so much work for me,' Skyfall's tone was sickly sweet with a tinge of anger her pedes stomping heavily into the already hard packed dirt. "Keep up you two!" Sky snapped at Skyquake and Soundwave, shifting the Drone on her shoulder so that he wasn't pinching her wings she glared forward visible shaking with anger. Today was not a good day. Grumbling under her intakes she opened a ground bridge.
"Would you like me to assist?" Skyquake's voice made her turn slightly to face the large green Decepticon.
"No I plan on throwing this Drone at Starscream myself."
"W-what?" The Drone said shakily.
Once the four Decepticons walked through the ground bridge, Skyfall tossed the Drone as hard as she could at Starscream nailing the Leader of the Decepticon's head on with the full weight of the Drone.
I'm so sorry for the wait! I'm back I promise to keep up the weekly submissions
