Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Apparently nearing dying more than once saving them doens't warrent consideration these days. Go figure." Shrugging while glareing at the screen for a moment. "We're fightening termination down here and they go off and preach about how Their the ones makign all the hard choices for the good of all. My engine has a more convicning arguemnt when I have a cyberflue." Optimus needed to be informed of this development but perhapes that was better left to when he was away from Sentinle. "You mentioned you and Prowl picked up what you thaught was MECh activity when you two were out scouting last week?" She asked sense she had only overheard the report but she defenatly rembered MECH. She hated the fact she know how to worry about small fleashy things going after her, she much prefered large Decpticons with cannons and lasers.

Breakdown often surprised even himself with how he could mentally retreat into himself in uch situations. He was fully aware and enjoying what he was doing but he made sure never to allow it to develope to a personal level. Keeping Knock Out firmly against him but allowingthe smaller mech just enough to move and squirmagainst him he kept his dentals buried just enough into theother's neck. the occaisoanly shudder mixed with a moan was reward enough but he found it more enjoyable when Knock Out dug into him. 'You'd think I'd get tired of being used.' He thaught distantly as his tongue moved and found the spot between Knock Out's shoulder and neck.

A week later Ratchet deemed Rodimus's vitals stable enough to were he was no longer in th red zone anymore. Though makign it clear that any visits were to be short sense the PRime was still very weak and all visits were to be supervised. Ironhide had visited and Rathcet wnated to throw him out becuase him and Rodimus got a bit to roudy for his likeing. Charoma came in and said a few military pick me ups while Optimus visited nealry every day and as often as he could.
Sentinle didn't bother even comign near the door.
The report Charoma and Ironhide gave Optimus botherd the team sense the base they foudn had been evauated but Charoma managed ot salvage some data fromt he wipped computers, barley any though. Teh data was distubing. MECH was becoming more aware of the phyciallolgy and weapary.
Bubmebee while out scouting reported odd Decpticon activity at an enegon mine. That in itself wasn't odd but he had noticed larger samounts being shipped than normal. All the soldiers seemed worried and were moving quicker than normal so what were they up to? Bubmlebee reported it but with nothign else to go on they were in a dead lock.

Rodimus was happy for the break in silance. "Yeah they never look up." He was also pleased his voice was slowly losing the hoarse chockign sound it had been for so long. "They like hidding int he mind so yeah wathc out for that typcial sutff. You know that." Though this was all for conversation's sake he knew. "Bout time you headed out to acutal get some energon sorta running on empty around here. Just syaing." 'You guys must be desperate.' Perhapes that was a thaught better left to himself for the time being.
"So Boss Bot wants us to run otu to a mine? Usually he jsut sends one of us not the whole tema. Weird." Bubmelbee shrugged snese this seemed a tad off for Optjmus to want everyone out for this one. Perhapes he wanted to disrupt the Decptocns operations than? That seemed the most likely but than again he was never one able to understand Potimus's motives.

"With how often I've been scouting energon and energy singles latley you'd think I had been demoted to grunt duty again." Breakdown was tyring not to compalin but this was starting to gratite his nerves. Weren't Vehcions mena tot do this? Thoug Megatorn had made it clear that everyone was to pick up extra work so that the project could be compelted as quickly as possible with as little risk of Autobot discovery as possilbe.Even the highest rnakign offcies seemed to have been demoted to menial tasts. Arachnid was on scoutign and recovering, thoguh she didn't seem to mind all that much. Breakdown and nock Out ressumed an old duty and scouting, research and survaliance.

At Mine

The mine was guarded like any other but the drones were indeed movign with much more purpose than normal. "Lik I said guys their moving a lot more energont han they should be." Bumblebee reminded everyone of his report and he had been proven right. Bubmlebee for the life of him couldn't figure out why they would need such a massive amount not including the possibility that they had far more troops than the Autobots. This was different.
Charoma had taken a spt ont he ride oposite the group for another angel. "Kid's right. Their really hauling in a load this time. This mine must go even deeper than we origonally thaught it did." As unnerving as the thaught was it meant that they had a larger reason to win, though still not sure how much resistence they were goign to encounter. "Optimus how do things look form where you and Sentinle are?" She asked while keepign herself firmly aginst the rcoks so she wasn't spotted. 'Least there are no big players yet fortuantly.'

"We dont' have all day you know! Hurry up! I want out of this mine before I rust!" Breakdown snapped with irratation at the workers who picked up their pace immedalty. This wans't Breakown's idea of an inportant mission, Mine Overseer really? How demeaning of a task could be given to him he wasn't sure, oh wait .. MECH. "Alright Bots Megatron wants this mine cleaned out within an hour I'm aimign for half that time so let's acutally put effort into this before I start rearranging someone!"
The fdrones and Vechicons typcially never gave him issues and did as he ordered with little to no fuse, proably because Breakdown despite being a high ranking offcier spent more time among them than the others. "Knock Out would have hated it in here." He sighed sense the medic despised caves for the reaosns of falling dirt and gravel on his precetine pain and wax.

Charoma launched herself downward without a ward towards the troopers below and inpaled one to the ground and disposed of the other before it had time to react. They had to dispose of the ones outside as quickly and quitely as possilbe otherwise they would be swarmed before they could even get a scrape of energon. With no idea of how deep the mine was or how many troopers were insdie surpise was there first and last weapon. The heavy hitters were out and throwing troopers and veicons left and right.
Bumblebee Prowl and Jazz made a dash for the enterance. "You sure we got no one big here we need to worry about?" He asked as they mvoed as fast and silently as possilbe.Prowl's trianign had seemed to pay off he was able to keep up fairly well with Jazz and Prowl while also keeping surprisngly quite enough.

"Sir the group still hasn't returned." A Vehicon informed Breakdown who was already annoyed at beign their longer than needed. "Than og out there find out what the hold up is and take care of it before I do!" He snapped angelry at them. The Vehicons immedlaty scurried out of his line of sihgt hopg to avoid his wrath, which usually envoled his fists.

The mine was like most other energon mines that they had investigated before. Though the sheer amount of energon was impressive in bumblebee's mind as well as the number of miners that were laboring away within. "Optimus your getting another wave of them heading out. Heads up by the way." He commed Optimus quitly while him, Jazz and Prowl crouthced behind a colum of boulders. Bumblebee continued looking aorund carfully from the relitive safety of rock collume there was nothign standouttish about the place.
"You want something done right do it yourself." Breakdown was now annoyed how damned hard was it to remove a minor annoyance like a group of Auto bots? Really it wasn't that hard of a queshton to answer!
"Prowl you heard that to right?" Bubmlebee asked hearing what he coudl only recall as a Decpticon. He coudln't exaclty pin point the name of the indicual sense well there were getting to be to many on the planet to really keep track of at the moment.

Airachnid was finding her current work to be mind numbign at best and infurating at worst. This was menat for drones not someone of her rank! As well being sent out fo rsuch linier tasts as 'collection' was somehting bellow her if she had naythign to say about it. "With all the boastful remakrs Megatorn makes one woudl think he coudl send a trooper for such a task." She muttered ot herslef as she crawled along the cliffside. 'One woudl think our resoruces to be spent elsewhere that acutlaly benefited us, not scavenge hunts.' She thaught bitterly while climbing into a small cave-like feature high above her. The energy signle, as weak as it was, was supposed to be in this cave thus she was deemed perfect for it's extraction.

'Sir! There are Autobts! Their overwhelming us!' The comm cut off with a burst of static that made Breakdown loose his last strand of patience in everything. "You want somehtign done right, do it yourself." He muttered with his anger more than evident as he made his way to the mine enterance. He didn't care how many Autobots were supposed to be out there he was sick of them screwing things up when he was already having a slagging Pit filled day already! A blast form his shoulder cannon aimed for the center of the group defently got them shell shocked for a brief moemnt before Breakdown himself came charging at full speed right into the thick of them.
"By the way the Con's Breakdown." Bumblebee muttered threw the comm link right as the ex-Wrecker caused the other Autobts to scatter from the inital inpact.

Airachnid was ready to call this hunt a bug before her hand brushe upon somehtign clealry metalic and even more clealry Cybertronian. Her eyes immedalty brightened up with delight and a grin spread over her features as she carefully extracted the item. "Ah to thnk after so many years it survived the elements." She mused while looking at the bronze and gold metal item she know held.Crawling backwards and out of her excevation site she gleamed at it in the sunlgiht and yes it was the real one.
"I belive Lord Megatorn will find the Polarity Gaunlet a lovely addition. Consdierign no one else seems to get anythign done anymore."
