on the streets

[lasercannons]

[ For his own part, Mega-Octane is trying his damndest to stay low- keeping to shadows and alleys and out of sight as best he can. This is difficult, however, when one has an arm that works in only jerking, painful motions, and a leg that barely works at all. He's scored with superficial damage as well, but his limbs seem to have taken the worst of it.

His gun has long-since vanished, and he's somewhat grateful that to the casual observer, the cannons on his back don't appear as such until he's actually firing them. ]

Re: on the streets

[Two transtechs in shades of black and gold turn down a street. They speak in tandem, a melodic harmony that's one note off from being perfect.]
::Another one here, they just don't stop. Well, ID bolt, citizen.::

[The two of them flank Mega-Octane faster than he can react, and one one on the left holds out a scanner, waiting for the identification bolt so the mech can be processed (And either arrested, or directed to a hospital).]

[ Mega-Octane angles his head. These two are decidedly creepy, and he knows he's in no condition to fight them off. He impassively presents his bolt- hoping that his relative quiet is enough to not get him arrested. ]

::Mega-Octane. Decepticon. 503.55 Alpha. 50% chance of having participated in the riots. Injured. Extensive external damage. Query: Why are you on the streets?::

[Yup. Creepy and fast and effective. But also just a bit computerized...]

[governorkang]

[Kang had stayed at Kitt's overnight; his place, completely designed for organics, was in Zone 2, which was just a little too close to Zone 1 and the riots for his liking. He'd come back the next day, though, glad to see that the area had been undamaged, though he'd found out that two or three of the others that had lived nearby were missing/dead. He goes to answer the knock on the door, grabbing the gun he'd gotten from Kino and holding it out of view just in case.]

[axiom_npc]

[The knock at the door is matter-of-fact and not attempting to break anything. When Kang answers it there's a human - well, once a human. She still keeps up appearances as best she can, but she's too tall - only a foot shorter than the Draconian - and she smells of cybernetic parts. Her eyes have been covered by glasses - inset into her sockets, bright polished silver that reflected everything. She has something that should be considered a weapon at her hip, but it's not even remotely identifiable. And she's alone.]

Sweeps. Put your weapon away and stand aside for inspection. If you don't have anything to hide, this won't take very long at all and I can leave.

[She already has the tone of someone who has said this far too many times today.]

[governorkang]

...come in, then, ma'am.

[Disarms the gun and sets it on a low table, then opens the door all the way and steps aside so that she can enter; he knows better than to start any trouble]

[axiom_npc]

[She flashes a humourless grin, teeth perfectly white and flat. She steps into the room, makes note of the deactivated gun, and then turns back to Kang.]

Thank you for having some sense. ID bolt, please. [A pause as her mirrored eyes look right through Kang. Figuratively at least.] You're Draconian, right?

[obsequiouslysir]

[Oh man, this was a real party. What with all the action and commotion going on. Sunstorm couldn't help himself, really. Instead of staying safely tucked away in his run down, hole covered apartment, which was most likely being invaded by now, the Seeker had propped himself on top of the old apartment complex's roof, legs swung over the side of the building with a cube of energon in one hand. At every passing citizen, Sunstorm would offer a compliment or two. Great party, man.]

In Jail

[king_grimlock]

[This was not at all what Grimlock wanted to accomplish. A revolution against the prison masters should not have been so... unfocused. Zone 1 was full of innocents and the offensive was scattershot and careless... nothing he would have ever attributed to Optimus Prime. For all his anger at being corralled into this Axiom herding pen, there was NO chance to vent his frustration at all.

Instead, he was forced to protect as many civilians as he possibly could from the massive collateral damage caused by the riot squad... and this is what got him caught by the TransTechs and thrown into their prison, where he's now cooling his heels.

And where the walls have been severely dented by his trying to pound his way out.]
