-Barricade-

Barricade decided that this world was just trying to make his processor crash. He parked in an alleyway to contemplate the words of the Autobot. Now that he had left one alive and one in an unconscious state they would surely search for him. It was only a matter of time before his peace was once again shattered by relentless hunting.

He mentally sighed blocking his partner bond with Frenzy which he only done when he needed some time to himself. Nothing was making sense anymore. The Autobot he had encountered had never heard of him. Did he not exist in this world? If so, who was he? Did he side with either faction or did he run like the neutrals did only to be hunted down and slaughtered?

He growled to himself as he realised that his processor was just taking his logic in a merry go round of tiny, painful circles. Barricade delved into his memories of his own squad of Decepticons that had gone in search of the Allspark. They hadn't exactly been friends, but there was a sense of comradeship between all of the members apart from Starscream, the pain in the aft had only socialised with Seekers and had ignored them in favour of talking to Blackout, the closest one on the team to a seeker.

Barricade had hated to have Blackout near Starscream. Would it have been different? He wondered as the final memory of Blackout's dying whimper filled his audios and speared his spark with hurt and guilt. Would it have been different if he had kept Blackout away from the Decepticons? Kept the younger safe and neutral until Megatron had returned? Even if Blackout had joined up when he had left to search for the Allspark that the Autobots had foolishly cast into space, he would have been safe on Cybertron right now, fighting against the stragglers of the Autobot forces.

The emotional pain made him shiver what in the pit was he thinking? He was a ruthless killer and here he was grieving! He gave a frustrated growl, as that Autobot's words came to his mind "You are in a new world and as the humans would say, you have a clean slate."

Like Slag he did.

-Frenzy-

Frenzy was beginning to think that coming back in the window hadn't been such a good idea. The few minutes he got of happiness were when the human had tossed his cat into its litter box crossly yelling at it for apparently tearing up his computer bag. Within five minutes the two jets on the roof decided that they weren't letting the hacker go without a fight. The blasted purple and black jet actually tried teleporting into the apartment.

That obviously didn't go well; walls and furniture were crushed and battered. Electricity sparked from wires as the jet barrelled straight into the wall, nearly sweeping Frenzy and his goldfish adversary out the kitchen window and down fifteen stories to the pavement below now speared with shards of rubble, glass and the odd pipe. He unfolded as the jet teleported away again, scrambling away from his spot on the now severely dented kitchen counter, past the broken human that now lay impaled on some wood that had flown from a nearby cabinet as the seekers wings sliced through it. The humans ruby life blood pooling around it limbs limp like a ragdolls. Much like the ones he killed on Air Force One when they interfered with his hacking, its eyes blank and staring. He grumbled in frustration checking behind him wearily as the blue jet came to hover at the hole the other had made in the wall. The goldfish had gone back to swimming, cruising around the jagged pieces of wood that had been too heavy to float in its bowl. It had already forgotten its carer's death. Frenzy dived out of the way as the blue jet's cannon fired at the house catching the goldfish and his bowl in its incinerating beam. As he ducked behind the remain counter, his throwing disks readying themselves to be ejected, the corpse of the fish flew by him landing with a wet sounding slap against the splintered wooden flooring, the hot glass of the shattered bowl scattering around the ruined flat.

Frenzy growled at his unfavourable position. Slag! He needed Barricade. He reached through the partner bond finding Barricade's side blocked. Frag! Of all the times for Barricade to shut him out! He thought furiously shooting a disk and catching the blue jet on the arm, part of his cannon slicing away as the boomerang like disks came back, lodging them in the support pillar somehow left standing. A pained hiss left the blue jet as he landed on the now shaky roofing. He scuttled to the door. He needed to find Barricade! The bigger mech would protect him. They had been connected ever since Frenzy had had awareness. Barricade would help him. He bolted into the empty corridor, his optics swivelling every which way so that he could find an exit. He found the stairs just as a servo grabbed for him, using his claws he clawed viciously at it shrieking an ungodly series of Cybertronian curses and random noises. Clearly startled that such a loud noise could come from such a small mech the purple and black jet let him go to cutch at his audios as Frenzy sprinted away with his unusual leaping gait.

He tumbled down the stairs and into a few straggling humans just as the jet glared at him through the window on the corridor. The fleshies screamed and ran from him as he spluttered and scrambled to find his footing on the carpets, slashing it with his sharp talon like pedes. He twittered and chirred to himself as he continued towards the ground floor. The sound of jet engines followed him all the way down. The seekers waiting for him just as he burst out of the apartment building, making to grab him.

He growled to himself, twisting and transforming himself to stay out of their grasp looking like liquid silver as he moved.

"Stay still!" the blue jet snarled as he missed the little hacker again.

Frenzy merely made a crude gesture with his talons beginning to enjoy himself as he taunted and teased the much larger seeker forgetting the black and purple one that teleported behind him.

The grip was crushing to his delicate frame making him give a shrill painful cry. His four arms pinned to his sides and his pedes not nearly sharp enough to pierce the servo his went limp with a growl. "Got you, little slagger"

An engine roared in the distance making Frenzy perk up and check his partner bond. It was open.

Barricade! He shrieked his joy at having the shock trooper open to him again across the bond.

I'm coming, how in the pit do you get into these messes? Barricade asked back irritation thick in the bond as his form came into view. The sun reflecting off of his ebony and white paint job, his lights flashing and sirens wailing at the seekers who had looked up as the roar of Barricades engine signalled his arrival. Still moving Barricade transformed.

Parts clashed and rotated as Barricade was revealed, his talons spread as he skated on his transforming tyres the last few hundred meters ramming the teleporting jet in a brutal fashion sending them both and Frenzy with them tumbling across the street.

Frenzy was released on reflex, the small spy immediately folding up and slotting himself into Barricade's chest as the Decepticon cop car raised his talons to rake across the seekers cockpit drawing a bright pink substance instead of the usual blue. The seeker wailed and teleported away coming to stand by its partner. Barricade rumbled threateningly raising himself from his crouched position, flexing his servo which dripped with the pink fluid. His red optics glinted as he took a talon tip to his mouth, flicking out his glossa and tasting the substance. He promptly spat it back out, finding that it was energon. He examined his claws with interest as the two Decepticon seekers stared at him in revulsion for tasting the life blood of another. Barricade smiled, baring his fanged denta as he shook off his talons, looking almost deranged. He flowed into an attack stance, flexing his small doorwings.

"This is going to be fun"
