Void saga (hopefully) finale!

[From Cyclonus's journal here.]

*on the bridge of the Dis, absent-mindedly with an arm around Dreadboots to reassure her* *one optic and audial monitoring the copilot's station, but mostly just watching Galvatron, watching the console lights throw shadows across his proud, fiercely set features, watching those strong fingers move with caressing

[clean thread since everything has gotten a bit muddled above]

All right, Cyclonus! Stand by!

*laughs, for no real reason other than sheer relief and delight that things seem to be finally back on track around here!*

*under Galvatron's guiding hands, the Dis emerges from whatever mysterious dimension its drives take it through. There are no wormholes or coloured blurs, Unicron gave it no such petty flash - rather, the giant ship is simply, suddenly there, decelerating to come smoothly alongside the Cocytus, looming like a vast iron ghost above Void's pale mirror-ship*

*looks out at the other vessel* Cyclonus! Can you let us on board or do we have to cut our way in?

~~In the Interrogation chamber.~~

[corruptedhope]

*flinches slightly, horrid images in his head* Doing...what? *and where are the Sweeps?*

[blackwingdove]

~~Mostly just hanging. He's still recovering from Jetstorm.~~

[corruptedhope]

*jostles his arms slightly* Scourge, ask it where he is. *and it's clear he doesn't mean Void*

[corruptedhope]

*mild glare* She, not it. *to the ship* We need Galvatron's head. Where is Void keeping it?

[lavender_wings]

*is keeping close to the others; suppresses a flinch at the mention of Galvatron's head*

[corruptedhope]

*turns back to her* Galvatron and his group will find my alternate. In our condition, we would only get in the way. *he doesn't mention that Scourge's condition would involve freezing in terror at the sight of Void and that he is quite nervous about meeting this proud, other him.* While they do their business, we can recover what's left of our leader.

((Don't mind me, joining the party late. Just pretend he came through the same portal as Snowcat and Demolisher and was already here before the two warships docked.))

*looks over and past Steadfast's shoulder at Cyclonus* Sounds like a plan. But how're you gonna find what you're looking for? Or - *glances at Scourge* - d'you already know where you need to look?

[corruptedhope]

*looks up* We ask the ship.

[lavender_wings]

*nods briefly*

((I'm a bit unclear about who's included in the "we" in your post before this one - wouldn't Steady belong to "Galvatron's group" (that goes to retrieve Cyclonus)? I just wanna be not-confused as to who is to go where.))

[corruptedhope]

((Steadfast can go where she wants, but alt-Scourge had only been referring to him and Cyclonus))

*The Cocytus withdraws a bit more from around Scourge, her attentions being required elsewhere.*

~~In his personal chambers, in a box.~~

[corruptedhope]

*to himself* I'm not surprised. *he tugs at Cyclonus' arm, gently* This way. Let's make it as quick as possible. *goes off down the hallway, headed for Void's room*

[corruptedhope]

*follows him, also wary of the shadows and any movement within them. His sensors are on high, watching for any sign of Void or his men*

[corruptedhope]

*pauses at Void's quarters, strengthening himself for what he knows he will see in there* Quickly.

*he touches the door control and it opens into a darkened room. It's messy, and there are bits of colored metal scattered around on and near the berth. At the foot of the bed there's a metal box about the size of a mech's torso. Scourge quickly steps to it, kneels, and opens it as Cyclonus waits in the doorway.*

*shivers and shuts it immediatly* It's him.
