Video [Transmission Originating From: Megatronus's Quadrant]

[redshirtrobot]

[The video comes on rather unexpectedly, and there's... really not that much to see besides a blur of mottled brown and green, and purple and silver. The sound is really more interesting for a while, all clattering and banging and someone shrieking. After a while of this there's a sound like 'whumph whumph whumph', each noise accompanied by a flash on the screen. Eventually the movement stops, until the purple blur shoves around and extracts itself...

And reveals it's a certain Vehicon, armor dented and paint scratched. One of his arms is converted into a rifle.]

I... I think I killed it.






...






I killed it!

[At least he sounds happy until the horrible centipede starts twitching in its death throes... at which point Fracas yelps sharply and starts shooting it again until it stops moving.

And then he kicks it. Just to be sure.]

Okay now it's dead.

Ahh, so you're Fracas. I had wondered.

[Megatron hides his disappointment well. Of all the things he had expected, a Vehicon was pretty much the last on his list.]

... Am I that infamous?

[That seems about as improbable as the fact that he just killed something. Then again, Megatron even knowing his name is crazy.]

The one who called himself Shockwave mentioned you.

[There's a significant pause before Megatron speaks again. This time his tone is colder.]

I fail to see how you didn't realize I was here.

I've been occupied with training and working with Shockwave. And no one ever mentioned your presence to me.

[Since, y'know. Vehicon. Not important to tell him things.]
