Current coordinates unknown. Will need to triangulate based on my signal.

[There's the sound of metal striking metal just before the feed ends. Any attempt to triangulate the source of the signal will pinpoint it to just outside Vector Prime's temple in the Haven.]

[sixthdeadliest]

I have no idea. Give me a minute so I can give you a visual.

[He does a forward flip over the centipede to slice it in its back with both blades. As it shrieks, he moves the camera so that it shows the Vector Prime temple.]

That help?

[video-->action?]

[sword_redemption]

[Nimble little critter, aren't you?]

Vector's.

[Great. Sort of.]

Be there really soon. [As in, as soon as he can come downstairs. Six might hear the roar of engines. ]

...didn't realize they'd gotten so close.

[video-->action!]

[sixthdeadliest]

I have no idea who that is.

[He sweep-kicks a few legs out from under it as it starts to turn around, dodging back as it swipes at him with those jaws.]

[video-->action!]

[sword_redemption]

He's your First-Forged. You have a glyph on your arm, right?

[He hopes so. The last thing they need is more glyphless.]

[Drift arrives, launching from his vehicle mode, drawing a blade to slice off the head of one of the creatures, leaping over the human, landing on the far side with a heavy thud. ]

[Action forever!] And we'll likely have Saber joining the thread, FYI. ^^

[sixthdeadliest]

Haven't exactly looked yet.

[Six jumps back a bit as the car transforms into a giant robot. He'll have to ask about this later. Right now, his primary focus is survival.]

..let me know if i did this wrong! trying to tie in as best as i can!

[pendragon]

Welcome, Drift.

[ Saber greets Drift as he's arrived. He helped her out immensely when she first arrived, too, so it makes her smile to see him helping out someone else.

Saber's remaining with her back to the two, after having dispatched one of the centipedes already. ]

Newcomer, what is your name? I'm called Saber.

[ Standing with her sword out in front of her, leaving it encased in the swirling illusion of wind, she makes eye contact with another one that looks as if it's about to charge her. She won't move forward to leave the gentleman's back exposed. ]

((If I just always post after Six, that should be good, right?))

[sword_redemption]

Didn't the Acolytes explain anything?

[That's worrying. He might try to talk to Vector about that.]

[He lunges, ready to take the position at Six's back, to clear Saber to move. He has slightly greater range to cover the human's, uh, six.]

[sixthdeadliest]

No time, really.

[He crosses his swords for a moment before slicing into one rearing up centipede's belly, the outer plating coming off to have some of the inner workings come out partially.]

And the name's "Six".

how many more creatures are there, gentlemen? we have a killer team here, they wouldn't last!

[pendragon]

[ Dashing forward as Drift takes the position behind Six, Saber swings her sword upwards and catches the creature's neck as it strikes down at her. As the head and body crash beside her, a splash of some kind of fluid pours down across her.

..Lovely. She shakes the invisible sword clean and then stands with her back to both Drift and Six. Since Drift has such a large area he can cover in a short amount of time, she chases after the nearest centipede.

After climbing up it's long form, the head falls to the ground. She jumps to the side as the body crumples. ]

[sword_redemption]

Right. Well. You're here. Depends who you ask if it's Unicron and some plan or the Primus with...some other plan.

[Clears everything up, really, right?]

Does fifteen left sound good?

[sixthdeadliest]

I have no idea who those people are either.

[Kind of grunts as he knocks one centipede back.]

a-okay! two more down..

[pendragon]

[ Saber pauses for a moment as she is barely able to listen in on Drift's and Six's conversation. It seems Drift is attempting to explain the situation, so she'll leave him to that.

Turning around swiftly, Saber verifies the situation. A good dozen and some left. The beneath the neck trick seems to work the best, so she will stick with that. Wherever these things are coming from, they are definitely robotic, so surely their numbers are limited?

Baiting two centipedes from opposite direction, the knight rushes between them and causes them to crash into each other. While they are stunned, she quickly climbs up one and then removes the heads of both.

Saber lands elegantly while the heads and bodies fall nearby her, and then begins to assess the situation again. Six is very capable, and with Drift behind him, she doesn't need to worry about the two. ]

[sword_redemption]

Primus is the god of our kind. Unicron, according to some worlds, is his enemy. Sort of order versus chaos.

[Drift has no problem talking and fighting. It's just like the Swarm again, which pretty much meant he sliced his way through them without trouble.]

[sixthdeadliest]

I see. [Not really, but he's trying to puzzle over this while cutting down a centipede. Between the three of them, there's only seven left now.]

And one of these two gave me a tattoo?

[pendragon]

[ Saber is herding the centipedes. While the two are chatting, she is attempting to be as efficient as possible. A blur of green can be seen darting around three centipedes, bringing them close enough to lop off their heads. Coming back to the other two, she sets her back to them and listens in on their conversation. ]

[sword_redemption]

If you have one. And it's probably Vector.

If you don't have one, Unicron. And....well, let's just hope you have one.

[He really doesn't want to go back to those 'kill on sight' times.]

Just be lucky no one wants the venom from these. [It's just so much easier to kill them this way--as he lops the head off another one.]

[sixthdeadliest]

[Six slices off some centipede legs before a vicious stab through the skull to pin it down like some sort of bug collection display. Someone's unhappy. He doesn't want identifying marks, dammit.]

sorry, forgot i don't get notifications for this!

[pendragon]

..I wasn't aware of this Unicron or Primus, either.

[ Minor small talk added on by the knight. She was learning what she needed to of the Cybertronians, but had no idea they had their own gods. That was rather interesting, actually.

It seems there's only three left, including the one that Six is currently hacking to pieces. The remaining two are eyeing up Drift and Saber, and the one looking at the knight in blue dashes forward and is met by the same fate as his comrades did; after connecting with the knight's sword, its head is removed cleanly and falls besides its body. ]

Looks like the final one is yours, Drift.
