[McCrane is stiff, and does not stare at the camera as he usually does when talking. His optics are glassy, but he's still going. Somehow.]

After a thorough investigation, we have determined that a number of individuals have gone missing over the past few days.

To count, this includes Ultra Magnus, Gunmax, and possibly First Aid.

[He had not been able to find the medic while looking for evidence in the upcoming trial.]

If you know of any other cases or have seen these individuals, please do not hesitate to contact the Police.

However--

[Now he stops, his lips pressing together and then opening again...but nothing comes out for a long moment.]

...

My information suggests that they may not be coming back.

[The tire tracks toward the badlands had been enough of a clue.]

I am sorry.

[Locked to Blurr and Prowl]

With Ultra Magnus gone, this puts me once more in charge of the Police Force. Blurr, I'd like you to be my second-in-command in charge of patrols and emergency rescue.
Prowl...I know you were talking with Ultra Magnus about restructuring our ranks. For now, I would like you to be second-in-command for criminal investigations.

We should meet to discuss this further.

[He needed something to do to keep his mind off of everything. This would work--for now.]

[Locked to the Brave Police (and Kagerou)]

I could not find him.

He just...was not there, and neither was Gunbike.

[McCrane has no idea what to do right now, other than work. He's hoping one of you might know.]
