Continued from here.

Rodimus Prime
[Rodimus can't hide his nervousness as he walks into Nemesis's hidden sanctuary, and doesn't bother to try. He has an inkling that's what Nemesis wants to see - and seeing it might put the dark Prime at his ease.
He glances around, curious despite himself.] ...Where's Megatron?
Nemesis Prime
Safe. [For now. The Prime hardly blinked at the question, at ease with the space around him. He stood, at his full height - taller than Rodimus perhaps, and looked down at him.] You are alone, yes?
[For Megatron's sake, Rodimus had better be.]
Rodimus Prime
[Frowning up at him - taller, yes, but not by that much. This could complicate Megatron's rescue... but Rodimus puts that out of his processor for now, focusing on the role he's playing.]
I'm alone. [nods to him] Just like I promised.
Nemesis Prime
Good. [He smirked, and started to prowl around the Prime, ignoring the Darkness for the momment as he studied him. He would be able to touch /this/ one, he knew.]
You are foolish.
Rodimus Prime
It's been remarked. [It takes all he has, but he remains still while Nemesis circles him. This close, he can feel the wrongness pouring off the other Prime's plating, and tries not to shudder.]
But I was... curious about you, I guess.
Nemesis Prime
Oh? [Brushes past, at least a good foot away, testing reactions, toying with his prey. He knows he's better, stronger, faster than you, and it shows. He fears /nothing/.] Why is that, little Prime.
[He /knows/ you are one, the Darkness knows, it can feel the Matrix, the /life/ of it. So tempting.]
Rodimus Prime
[-actually jerks back, unable to help himself. He feels terribly exposed, and clenches his fists as he steadies himself again. Calm, calm, a mech's life depends on this-!]
[speaking slowly] The other Primes in my line are little more than a vision in the Matrix to me, but in my world there's never been a Prime like you. Who are you, really?
Nemesis Prime
[At this point Rodi? /your/ life now depends on your actions, but he's hardly against using Megatron's life against you, either.] I /was/ Nova Prime, shackled by the Matrix. Then the Darkness came to me, and I was freed.
You would not understand how free it it is, to have /nothing/ holding you back. [And he's moving away, looking for anything to use should be wish to incapacitate you.]
Rodimus Prime
[softly] I think I understand a little. But there's always a price - isn't there?
[with Nemesis moving away, he can think again, and takes in more of his environs as well. It's more or less bare, just a few crates and a communications console to worry about, although who knows what those crates contain. The rest of the floor is empty: space to fight.]
Nemesis Prime
A Price? Perhaps. [There was. He's completely lost to the darkness, his spark is tainted beyond repair, He believes that he controls what he can never. He's truly fallen, and can not see it.]
But, the time of talk... Is over. [And Rodi? better start moving as he's shotting his Dark Lightening at you. ]
Rodimus Prime
[Rodimus is in motion almost before Nemesis is finished speaking, bright lasers from his arm-mounted weaponry cutting the air toward Nemesis as he dives to one side. He only promised to come alone - he never promised not to fight back.]
Nemesis Prime
[He laughs as the fire hits, but seemingly does nothing, Either he is immune, or the fire power is far too weak to affect him.]
Fool. [ And his trailer-wings flare a little as he channels the Darkness through them, and then aims it where Rodi is.] Can you hope to best me, hmm?
Rodimus Prime
[Well, there's one way to find out - braced on one knee, Rodimus unsubspaces his rifle: much more powerful than his wrist lasers.]
I'm all about hope, Nem-! [and then the Darkness hits him - directly. He screams, joints locked up too tightly to fall, and his rifle falls from his grasp to clatter on the metal deck.
Whether he can accept it or not, this fight is already over.]
Nemesis Prime
Hn. Fool. [And Those crates? They will be gone, and the security feeds will show Nemesis using a chain around Rodi's ankle to drag him somewhere. He obviously wants a Prime to play with.]
((OOC Note: Blurr's got the frequency to Roddy's tracking beacon, so when you're ready, you will be able to find him. What you do when you find him? Well, that's up to you. ^_^;;; Also, according to IDW Prime, the Matrix is useless against Nemesis Prime, so that's out.))
((OOC Edit: Unless agiftedmind has any objections, let's play this as having been recorded and broadcasted by Nemesis Prime. Sort of a warning/taunt at the coalition.))
