-Crud. This is really gonna hurt,- Blacktop swore, curling up as tightly as his damaged joints would allow as the planet's surface rushed him

"Something big from outer space hit. Close," he said, leaning back and sighing and Luan threw a fit. Smitty had remembered to close the door. "I sent O'Rork out with a team and Arcee and Smitty to investigate, the scientists said it released some kind of shockwave that took out their immediate sensors."
"Okay, cool." Fred carefully manipulates a tiny sensor, but then stops and looks up to meet Mac's optics where his best friend's sitting on the table helping him with the little robot they're building. "What did he just say?"
Fred jumps in the jeep, then pauses and looks down at his cargo pocket where Brea's little head just peeks out next to Gandalf's usual relaxed elbows on the edge pose. "Oh... Brea.... I can't bring you!"
Brea frowned at him, but with the gentle encouraging from Mac and Gandalf she got out and sat on the soldier's hand, looking at him sadly as the young man backed away, holding her carefully.
"I think so," he says absently, looking for a tool that's not there, and then blinking as he realizes that they're still out in the field. "Just don't let them move him around too much. We need the mother of all back boards...."
"Yeah. He's just a little banged up." Fred looks up to see if he can help, and then manages to trip over his own feet and fall backward into the crater. "Yeow!"
//Because what I do is a little illigal, like I've said before.// He watches as the big Transformer is lifted, absently fastening his seatbelt and managing to pinch his finger in the process. "Ouch."
The driver started the jeep, hiding a snigger at Fred, then pulled away. Overhead the helicopter with it's hidden load passed, and Finn roared by on Arcee.
//Plus the police don't know who I am. I can't have them or anyone else tracing my backtrail and finding you guys.// He sucks on the blistered finger, eyes still on the chopper.
//I think by law we're under Military protection. The base is not under and civilian law enforcer's jurisdiction,// Mac said, looking out the window as they went. //And you're far too intelligent to let any cops find you out.//
Fred looks over the area he'd been working on a last time, then carefully closes everything up. "I think that's it. It's going to take a little while for everything to heal now, but... yeah. Elena, can you do the antidote program?"

"No problem," Elena smiled as Arcee came forward. Almost as soon as the program as ended the giant robot twitched, then groaned and slowly opened his optics.
//What..?// he mumbled.
//Easy, comrade,// Arcee frowned. //You had quite a crash.//
//Y...yeah,// he frowned, then blinked. //Where...?//
//Earth. The Human's Autobot Embassy for us, for now,// she said. //Why are you?//
The big bot blinked, then slowly sat up, touching his head and then looking at her, eyes quickly finding her Autobot insigna, which made him visibly relax. He gave his name in Cybertronian, then blinked when he suddenly realized there was a Human in the room. It took him a moment, but after searching the Earth languages he slowly nodded.
"My name is Blacktop," he rumbled, voice deep and gravelly.

Fred nods, his face serious as he gives the simple Cybertronian greeting that he learned from his kids. Then he grins and adds, "I'm Fred Sarcowsky. They tell me I run this place."
Re: Time passearthbotsuntdFebruary 23 2008, 01:54:38 UTC
He blinked, then looked at Arcee.
"Yeah. That's what we were sent here to protect," she smiled. "My name's Arcee."
"I know you. The last of Old Hide's dream batch," Blacktop blinked. Arcee looked surprised and pleased until he added "I didn't realize you were the smallest, too."
"Watch it, bub. I'm in charge here," she said. Blacktop looked surprised, then looked around.
"Where's Prime? And the Cons?" he asked.
"You missed the party. The rest of the gang's back on Cybertron, rebuilding," she said. "The Cons are pretty much a bad dream, as far as we know."

"UCO," he said. "Perhaps we should stop and see what's going on?"

"I think he's saying he'll look after her," Mac frowned.
"If not, I can take her back, sir," a soldier offered his hand.

"This time I think she'd better stay," he says to Gandalf, putting his hand down. "Brea, I'll be back soon, okay? I love you."

"Ready to go, sir?" the driver looked at him.

Arcee looked over from hooking up the net, and Mac hurried over as well.
"Are you ok?" the young yellow bot frowned.

"What?" Blacktop's optics went huge.
