[Binary translation courtesy of this translates to: Prism....don't trust....spark experiments...comm disabled...help. Drift will be unable to reply via comm. So. uh. get creative? ]

 Ratchet, we've got an emergency!

There was this coded message, Gunmax said Drift's in trouble, he's gone to find him, but he needs you to prep the med bay!

[OOC: Picking up from here.]

[There's a looong moment of silence between the transmission's start and Knock Out actually beginning to speak. And when he finally does, his voice is very even.]

Has... anyone seen Breakdown lately? Or heard from him, perhaps? Big blue and silver mech, grounder like me, prominent chassis... He has a striking red-orange face and a patch over one optic.

[And he's missing. KO doesn't like that. He also doesn't like that he woke up in the middle of nowhere outside of the Haven, alone, and missing time, but he's not exactly about to go sharing that publicly. In fact, he doesn't sound nearly as agitated as he actually is right now, because that's something else he's trying not to be public about.]
