Who: Dinobot 2.0 (upwind_of_you), future!Rattrap (vermin_downwind)
Where: The outdoor Maximal-tech containment cell.
When: One late night after the beast's capture.
Rating: PG
Summary: And so we welcome the approaching end.
the Story: The snow has stopped falling, and the night is still. It is more peaceful than it perhaps ought to be; though this is the past, they have brought the future with them. Isn't that always the way?

The snow has stopped falling, and behind the glow of the immobilizer field across the cell's only door, its sole occupant is still. A tangle of white and silver, of metal that juts out like bone...a big ball of alien lizard, curled absently against the cold. It is a far cry from the terror of the forests, the battle at the beach, or the horrors in their past and this world's future. It is a far cry from--how many times a traitor, now?

It is caged now, and there is nothing more it may do but wait, a red-eyed monster breathing its softly growling breaths in the night.
