A call to battle

*Rodimus Prime stands at the edge of one of Autobot City's top-level landing pads, fist raised level with his chest as if in salute. A panel on his forearm lifts away and he begins to speak, steady and strong

*folds her arms and does a relatively good job of not fidgeting* So now everyone's on alert, what do we do? Aside from look out for Void and charge the lasers.

[schrodingersbot]

"We get bigger guns," Perceptor replies quite matter-of-factly as he approaches.

He steps up to Rodimus and offers him a very large, rather impressive looking cannon. "From Wheeljack's private collection," he explains, and then holds up a hand to forestall any response from Rodimus. "I assure you that it is safe. I installed the safeties and tested it myself. It has a limited power source, and thus a limited number of shots - no more than five; make them count. The weapon should, however, increase your power and range for those few shots by at least an order of magnitude over your normal primary weaponry."

He then steps back out of the way, checks the power levels on his weapons' systems, and waits for orders.

[giri_guy]

Oof. *has his arms full of cannon all of a sudden*

*listens to Perceptor's explanation, then grins* Sometimes, Perce, I like the way you think. *grin*

[apprentice_lurk]

*peers around and whistles appreciatively* Biiig gun. Nice.

[chaos_gunner]

*nods to Rodimus* Good speech, Prime. Now for a battle plan, shall we?

*frowns, deep in thought* *then turns to alt-Scourge*

Scourge. *watches him sharpp-opticked* You promised me your service, and now I have need of it! Will you do as I command?

*standing with the others in a "ready as ever" stance, her face set, silently waiting for Galvatron's orders*

[giri_guy]

*nods to Rodimus* Good speech, Prime.

*wry grin* Part of my inheritence, but thanks. *bows slightly in acknowledgement*

*optics flick from Galvatron to Scourge* *after a moment to think he's pretty sure he knows what Galvatron has in mind - as sure as anyone can be where he's concerned, anyway.*

[corruptedhope]

*shivers, forcing himself to look Galvatron in the face. He's about to ask exactly what Galvatron wants, then pushes that thought away* Anything, my lord.

((Hey, I totally forgot I had this guy. *thunk* I need to be shot.))

Spike -- Autospike, as he's made sure the other Autobots would call him -- seems apprehensive. He's been in battle before, but never as an Autobot. He's gained an advantadge at the cost of his experience. Quickly, he answers the call.

"Rodimus, this is Autospike. I... don't have a battle station, am I needed anywhere?"

[giri_guy]

*cocks his head for a moment, thinking, then replies* //How do you feel about helping out First Aid? Ariel's up here with me, and he's going to need the extra hands.//

[autobotspike]

((Good, just so he's not floating in the nothingness while this is going on. XD))

"All right." He quickly makes his way over to the repair station.

[giri_guy]

((*patpat* You are good to your pups. ^_^))

//Let me know if there's any problems.//

[megrimlocksmash]

Me Grimlock kick butt. Where this Void at? What he look like? Me Grimlock bash him outside-in.

[megrimlocksmash]

((!!! Grimlock is not a chipmunk anymore. *changes icon* um oops. XD))

[giri_guy]

Easy, Grimlock. We'll get him together, I promise.

[megrimlocksmash]

Grimlock huffs, but doesn't say anything more about it. "Other Dinobots scattered around base. Not let anyone break home, we protect it good. Keep everyone safe." He turns to face Rodimus. "Everyone."

[blazinblackness]

Well, I ain't exactly 100% Autobot, but I'm not missin' out on a chance to put what firepower I own to use. *gives him what is perhaps too eager a grin* Keep me updated, wontcha? I'm gonna go find Kaci and those two Energon 'Cons.

[giri_guy]

*grins back* Thanks, Blaze, I appreciate it.
