(RP) Transformers: Robots in Disguise!

[hafrogman]

Stickshift lets out the two humans and then transforms, dripping water onto the floor of the ark.

"Well, now we are here, what do we do?"

He calls out for the others.

"Wheeljack, Ratchett! We're back, and we brought something for you."

 

[Vendetta]

Wheeljax and Ratchet meet you a moment later.

"Good to have you back." Wheeljax says after seeing that everyone has returned.

"Is everyone well?" Ratchet says, a note of worry in his voice.

 

[hafrogman]

Stickshift pokes at some of the laser scoring he received from Skywarp and shrugs.

"We are alright for the most part. But I am sad to say that the same cannot be said of Impact."

Jackknife: Autobot/Tracker Trailer (Soldier)

Having finished transforming, in which Jackknife had unceremonious drops the remains of Impact on the floor, Jackknife speaks quickly towards Stickshift, “Don’t be to sorry as their wouldn’t be to much remorse if the roles where reversed.”

“Wheeljax, what’s our latest status report?”

 

[hafrogman]

Stickshift gives Jackknife a stunned look for a moment, his mouth hinges opening and closing soundlessly. Finally he mutters to himself.

"Note: Ask Wheeljack to install a sarcasm chip into Jackknife."

"The other sad thing is our friends were right about the natives. Thier leaders are suspicious and they tried to have us followed."

 

[Vendetta]

Ratchet steps up to check out each of the returning Autobots. Wheeljax looks down at the energonless body of Impact. "If he no longer functions, we might be able to use some of his Positronic Personality Core to help some of our boys. In my opinion, we need to first create a back up core for Ratchet as he is currently using his master core... and that is dangerous." Wheeljax says. Teletran 1 has so far located 4 unknown deposits of Diamond. I've placed the general scan on secondary priority and set Teletran 1 on full scan of those four deposits. I've asked Ratchet to focus on activating Brawn next. We'll need his demolition skills to mine those diamond deposits. Brawn should be up and about in an hour or two."

Ratchet produces a hyper-spanner and makes a quick adjustment on Jackknife's shoulder actuator then turns his attention to Impact. "Looks like a full feedback overload on Impact's Core... I hate to say it, but I'm glad this one wont be coming back around. I've seen him obliterate too many good Autobots."

"Can you use the core?" Asks the inventor.

Oh yes. I'll be able to salvage a good deal of it, I believe. But I'll have to get in there and have a close up look." And with that, Ratchet transforms and hoists the fallen Decepticon into his cargo hold and drives off toward his hospital lab.

Wheeljax turns back to the rest of you. "I've managed to crack some of the earthling encryption frequencies. They're not too complex, really... shouldn't take me too long to be able to access most all of their communication systems. Anyway, that stunt you pulled going into the ocean worked great. They seem to think that our base is in an underwater cave along those cliffs. They've called in for divers to check it out."

 

[hafrogman]

Stickshift looks around at the inside of the Ark.

"I guess we can relax until Brawn is up and about then. How far away are these diamond deposits anyways?"

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

Jackknife: Autobot/Tracker Trailer (Soldier)

Jackknife watches ratchet drive off with the remains of Impact before turning back to Wheeljax, “Good job on the communications, that will help make it easier for us to help them… Also make sure that Ratchet is restore first. Is their any update on Prime?”

Jackknife nods his head at Stickshift’s question obviously interested in the answer to it.

 

[Vendetta]

"The principal diamond deposits are located in a region called the Andes Mountains in South America along the border of the countries Peru and Brazil. The area is pretty secluded and if we are lucky, we might be able to do the work undetected." Answers Wheeljax.

"As for Optimus Prime... As you know, he was hurt pretty badly. His circutry is much more complex and advanced than you or I thanks to the rebuilding and upgrades that Alpha Trion added to him when he was originally known as Orion Pax. Ratchet can fix him, but the damage is extensive and covers many of those upgrades. We're going to have to use some of the Ark's equipment to repair Optimus... but if we do that, the Ark will never be able to fly again.

"I'm sure that Impact's generous contribution will help greatly in getting Optimus functional again. But, it looks like it might come down to the Ark or Prime. On the one hand, if we can get the Ark repaired, we can return to Cybertron where we could easily repair Optimus, but then, we'd be without his leadership. On the other, we'd get Optimus back, but possibly never be able to return to Cybertron. As Second in command, Jackknife, what do you say?"
