Con Artist \\ 'Cade and Schuldig
Who: Barricade and Schuldig
What: Schuldig tries to steal the pretty police car.
When: Sometime after full nightfall.
Where: Outside, near the front entrance to the castle.
Rating: PG-13, at the least for 'Cade's violence.
Barricade sent out the encrypted transmission one more time as he sat un-moving at the front entrance the the large castle behind him. Barricade had been sending out the same message for the past few Earth days about every twenty Earth hours. So far it had been unsuccessful in reaching any of his allies, but nor had it attracted any of his enemies. He was uncertain which he preferred less.
If electronics could sigh this would be about the time 'Cade would have made the expression. As it was his emotion protocols emitted a slight spark of annoyance throughout his system and his entire structure (currently within his alternate Earth vehicle mode known as a "car") shook as though to clean one's self.
Barricade would never admit it, but in truth the 'bot really was bored. He contemplated exercising his engine for a while, cruising around the large complex (which he believed was referred to as a "castle" by the organic human species) but he had already somewhat alerted one of the human's by moving once before. It had startled the female quite a bit much to the amusement of the Decepticon.
No, he decided, better to stay put for the night. Just one more night. If he didn't get an answer to his call by then then maybe he would further reveal himself. In fact, if this odd device was indicating what he thought it was, he might have a bit of fun to investigate. There seemed talk of another unusual car on the premises.
That decided, Barricade settled himself for another uneventful night and deactivated everything but the most vital of his functions, effectively going to "sleep."
