F.O.A. - "Fragged on Arrival"!

*Humming an irritatingly cheerful little tune, Klank is busy cleaning one of the work tables in his little niche of Decepticon HQ when Drakken interrupts him, dragon head and neck appearing in the open doorway

"Where are the other Stunticons, anyway?"

*Powerlane, at that moment, happens to be zipping through the halls cackling after having raided Starscream's room*

[wolfinbotsarmor]

*Steiner, who is out of the labs and on his own for the moment, sees the little car racing about and grins, pulling a package of Twinkies from subspace.*

[Steiner] Little car want refined sugars? ^_____^

*Powerlane does a 180 turn and heads right for Steiner. He transforms on the way, dropping what he had stolen been carrying and makes a grab for the package of Twinkies*

*Which is admirable considering how tall Steiner is and how small Powerlane is, but he deserves an "E" for Effort, yes?*

*Meanwhile, the object abandoned further down the hall remains still although the overhead lights gleam off of the crystals and other sparklies glued to its surface. On one side is chiseled the Decepticon symbol.*

[wolfinbotsarmor]

*Steiner is content to dangle the Twinkie package out of Powerlane's reach, amused by the much smaller Decepticon...until his optics catch the glint of crystal from down the way.*

*Suddenly, the Twinkies are dropped and the giant is pacing down the hall, picking up the shiny object and staring at it, almost hypnotized. One could suppose that the trade is fair...one shiny thing for another shiny sugary thing. ...it's like alchemy in a way. Only with pasteries and rocks. And a large suit of armor robot and his much smaller Decepticon brother comrade.*

[Steiner] ROCK PRETTY! :D

* Shockwave enters the room, and an optic flashes...

What in the Pit happened to them? This isn't good... hmmm... *places his one hand where his chin would be, if he had a more humanoid face* Klank, once you're done with these two, I would like your assistance with a project I've been mulling over for some time. It's time the Decepticons retook the gestalt team lead in this war...

[wolfinbotsarmor]

*Klank finishes up what he's doing and turns to face Shockwave, wiping his hands on a clean rag.* A fair portion of the damage on this pair is superficial and I've already cleaned them quite a bit. And seeing as how they're shut down whilest I work, there's no danger of eavesdropping. As for what happened to them, something about a human driving an all black car out racing them and then running them off the road. I suppose the deus ex machina effect wore off, eh? Either that, or that human is driving a compact, shielded battering ram of death.

So what is this about retaking the gestalt team lead?

Simple, old friend. Menasor has been, shall we say, out of commission, due to certain events. I have decided that, following the treachery of the Autobots, we will rectify this. The problem has eluded me for some time... how to restore Menasor with Dead End apparently lost to us, and Vector Sigma unavailable for our ends.

But I have been developing a technology that might help us. As you know, Transformers have been known to be born as twins. One spark becomes two. I believe I might have a way to create our own version of the process. Transformer Clones, you might say. And once we test the procedure, we will be able to let Menasor live again!
