This is Megatron, is there a chance I could get some assistance?

[He chooses not to put the post on video, instead trying to keep everything about himself calm, hoping that no one panics over this.]

[LOCKED TO THE POLICE FORCE]

I need to let you know that there is an organic out here that could potentially be quite dangerous. I believe she is frightened and acting out of fear, but she was able to sever a number of lines in my knee as well as score the metal reasonably deep.

She looks to be a young woman with darker skin and brown hair. She had blades that extend from her hand.

I have reason to believe my size was a contribution to frightening her, so I would suggest approach toward her come from smaller bots, or possibly even other organics. At this time I doubt she hurt me out of malice but a sense of self defense so I do not wish to see her treated as a criminal, I am more concerned for her safety.

A newcomer. Did you see a glyph?

[Oh and he'd just had this talk with Vector. Was he going to have to disobey so soon?]

There was a glyph though she moved before I could register which one it is. Possibly she is with Liege Maximo since I don't think she has been out very far if I surprised her like I think I did.

Hnh. Not likely some new attack by Unicron, then.

[Good and bad news?]

Surprised. So you think this was defensive only.

If it is then we have more to worry about then we thought.

I do think so, she wasn't looking for a target, I spoke and moved and I believe it startled her. She went after my knee which was the closest thing that was coming near her and then ran off, not the actions of someone meaning to do anything more than protect themselves.

Let's hope it's not that, then.

The thing is, if she is afraid of us...well, there's a lot of us.

[Megatron might be able to hear the engine as Drift gets closer.]

Agreed.

I thought about that. I contacted the Police Force to let them know she is out there, and most likely afraid.

[He looks toward where the engine sound is coming from smiling faintly.]

I'm much more concerned about her ending up out in the Badlands or something of that nature. If she was just afraid then it seems quite the crime to let her end up injured because of a mistake.

All right.

I can ride the perimeter looking, if you want. After we get you taken care of.

[Drift arrives, tires screeching. Sorry, Liege, for those marks. ] All right. Let's see.

I would appreciate that, even if part of it is her fear making her turn away and head back into Haven. I, for one, would rather her safe.

[He didn't seem at all started or affected by the approach, even smiling and nodding in welcome to the mech. At the indication he released the pressure he had been keeping on his knee joint and pulled his hand away. His self repair had shut down most of the energon lines, now only a slow seeping making it's way out.

The lines were sliced clean through, thin rings of them on the ground near his leg to show how little space, to someone their size, there was between the blades. Some of the cords severed were motorization cords, which meant that his knee wasn't going to work and he wouldn't be able to walk on that leg unless they got patched.]

I didn't think she would attack me, never even occurred to me to expect a fight at all.

I'll do what I can. After we take care of you.

[He kneels down by Megatron. It feels strange, and yet not strange, to be talking with a Megatron, so familiarly. Like they understood each other. ]

I can--try--to patch it? Or how do you want to handle it? [The last thing he wants is to turn Megatron into his practice patient for what he'd been reading in those first aid manuals.]

[He gives Drift a smile, appreciating the mech's help and willingness.]

My thought is to just try to get everything patched over so that I don't lose more energon when I get on my feet. There are a couple others that I have requested some help from, and with some support I should be able to get to the medbay, that way no one has to sit out here for long.

Good. [He's glad to hear others are coming.] I don't trust patches I do to hold for very long. [It doesn't mean he won't try, though.]

Who else is coming? [He bends over the leg, getting to work. He's so much better at injuring than healing: his hands move lightly, uncertainly.]

They can be quite tricky to get right, and joints just seem to make them worse. [He has plenty of experience with doing field patches himself, so he gives some encouragement to Drift.]

At the moment Thundercracker, but I am thinking if I can at least mostly use the leg then with you and him as support I should be able to walk myself fairly well.

[And speak of the devil . . . or maybe angel . . . Blue Angel? ...something. Anyway, Thundercracker arrives just then, transforming from alt-mode to land several meters back. Quick strides carry him the rest of the way and he drops to a knee by his liege, opposite Drift. The grounder gets a nod of greeting - sorry, he's not really one for unnecessary pleasantries, most of his attention on more immediate concerns.]

What's the extent of the damage?

It's something, at least, [he says, bending over the last injury.] And I'm sorry I can't do anything for the pain.

[He's still just learning. He hasn't gotten that far.]

[He quiets as the other arrives. He's not being addressed, so he'll let Megatron answer.]

It is, and without doing it it's hard to get used to it. The pain is healthy at this point, once it is well mended then I will worry about getting rid of that. [He assures Drift before turning to nod to Tundercracker at the flyer's arrival.]

Mostly I'm in need of some patches and support down to the med bay, nothing critical, but I am unable to leave this area completely under my own power at this point. [He points to the the area that has been patched up, some fuel lines as well as motor cables being included in the patching.]

[The Seeker looks over the work that's been done and gives Drift a nod.]

The patches look pretty good, Lord Megatron. Still, I wouldn't suggest putting any weight on that leg until a medic's seen it, just in case. I'd say you have plenty of support, though. [He lets Drift finish the last patch before commenting again.] Get his other side? [Aiming to coordinate his movements with Drift's, he'll get Megatron's near arm around his shoulders and air vents in preparation of helping him to his feet.]
