[Video - Vector Prime's temple | Action]

[skylynx]

[This has been the strangest day ever in Skylynx's short life. Waking up on apparently another Cybertron, and being informed so by some robbed figure. He had listened of course. It was better know what he could about this planet he was on, then to know nothing.

At some point afterwards, he's accessing that communications thing that the figure mentioned. Deep yellow eyes peering into the feed as the video comes on, robotic 'eyebrows' pinched down as he focuses and makes sure the thing is on. Once he's sure he leans back from the feed, brows shifting back up some.]

So. I am on another planet called Cybertron. [There's an intrigue rumble after that statement.] It's in better shape, than the one I was just on.

[Younger, more primitive Cybertron. Was that more like the ones his ancestors grew up on? Still he's only to say one more thing before he cuts the feed.]

Darksteel. If you are here, brethren, report in.

[Then the video cuts. He needs to know if his brother is here.

Not long after, for anyone about the Haven, if they look up, there's a rather large Cybertronian dragon in the skies. He's looking about, with head lowered to do so at times. He may also hover to closer inspect something, like one of the temples. Or that huge stone pillar that's sticking out of the ground in the middle of everything.]

[It's okay. Story of his life, really.]

We did. You, Predaking and Darksteel did most of the fighting, though. [At the mention of those names he frowns and replies more coldly.] Yes, I know them. And I really hope I don't have to see Starscream ever again.

[skylynx]

...Predaking. Our predecessor?

[He's never met him, but he knows of him. Likely thanks to Shockwave or Starscream.]

Hnn, I have heard he is in a place called jail.

[deadlydoctor]

The one and only.

[Knock Out can't say they talked all that much and he doubts Predaking will be too happy to see him. The last time they reached some sort of truce because they were fighting a common enemy and that seemed to work for all of them but that's not applicable here.]

It's the perfect place for Starscream, trust me. He won't bother anybody else there. You don't like him I take it? When did you two meet?

[skylynx]

I have only heard of him. I have not met him.

[And most of that was probably Starscream complaining about him.]

You...could say that. [There's a low growl to his voice. So he's somewhere where he can't bother him? Sounds good. It doesn't help that the last time he spoke to Starscream is still fresh in his mind.]

When he was angry at Darksteel and I, or we did something wrong. He would shock us with his prod. He's done that to me since I came online.

Shockwave was nicer to us.

[deadlydoctor]

What? But you two fought togueth....wait a minute. [Oh boy, not you too.] What's the last thing you remember before you appeared here?

I can't say I blame you. Starscream really could write a book about how to be an aft.'Fifty shades of jerk', a best seller.

Shockwave....nicer. [The two words together sound strange to him but Knock Out knows that being 'nice' for a Decepticon point of view means 'not to cause immediate harm' to others.] Shockwave's in the planet. Or was the last time I was here

[skylynx]

Last thing I remember is hard to forget. After we battled a pair of Autobots. One named Ultra Magnus, he said, and some smaller blue one. [He never got Smokescreen's name.] Darksteel and I reported to Starscream and Shockwave, in the lab. Starscream wasn't happy when we told him about it.

[Well hey, you know. Shockwave never shocked them.]

Shockwave is here? Why has no one told me this?

[deadlydoctor]

Oh, you mean Mr. smiles. A tough guy, isn't he? You did quite the number on him. Starscream is never happy as far as I know. Many things happened after that, I missed most of them but long story short: we survived.

[It's a pretty good end as far as Knock Out is concerned.]

Probably because not many people knows about it. he spends a lot of time in his scientist cave.

[skylynx]

Yes, he fought well. [For an enemy anyway.] I would have finished him off if the blue one did not have something that kept my claw from hitting. Good that we survived. What of Starscream and Shockwave?

[Doesn't sound like a bad end to him either.]

I see....I will have to contact him.

Ahh I thought I replied this, I'm sorry.

[deadlydoctor]

You like fighting a lot, don't you? You shoudl talk to the Wreckers here. I don't really know much about what happened to them, specially not Shockwave. [He's going to avoid telling what happened between Starscream and him for now.]

Good luck.

Ffff, tis okay, xD

[skylynx]

...what is a Wrecker? [Man, they really didn't teach him anything did they? Some parents.] I hope they were okay, or at least Shockwave.

Why?

thanks!

[deadlydoctor]

[Didn't you go to the little robots school? There, Knock Out will educate you.]

They're usually noisy, they like to blow up things and they fight a lot. Here they go by the names of Bulkhead and Wheeljack.

Shockwave's a really private mech, You won't be able to track him down easily if he doesn't want you to find him.

[skylynx]

[Nope, Starscream and Shockwave didn't teach him much beyond the basics.]

Blowing things up? [He looks interest in that information.] Bulkhead and Wheeljack....I will have to seek them out. Where do I find them?

Maybe I can contact him on this communication link.

[deadlydoctor]

[Don't worry, papa Knock Out will be your new teacher.]

More often than not, yes. Not Bulkhead is helping to build the roads here. Both are in my same temple. [He points to his arm.] Solus's. I can give you a tour if you want, show you around the place and my clinic.

[skylynx]

[Yay!]

Hnn, I see. [Really he does. The offer of a tour makes him tilt his head, though, in interest.]

I would like to see one of these other...temples. How do I get there?

[deadlydoctor]

[You and your brother need a good influence in your life.
but since there's none available, you get Knock Out. Almost as good.]

I will give you the coordinates. I usually turn into my alt mode to go from one temple to another. You can fly, that will make things easier.

[skylynx]

[Eh, Knock Out's better than nothing.]

Then, I will fly there. Send me these coordinates. [You can already hear him transforming.]

[deadlydoctor]

[He could make a good papa.]

try not to get in trouble while you do so, okay? [He sends them and then...] I'll wait for you at the entrance of the temple.

[skylynx]

I will be there soon.

[He gives a gruff rumble, before he cuts the feed. He will make his way to Solus', though he gets distracted by a couple of strange encounters. But soon there's a screech in the way, before the Predacon lands at the coordinates. He transforms back, narrowed yellow optics looking around.

[deadlydoctor]

There you are. [Knock Out was leaning against the giant door of the temple but when he sees the Predacon he approaches him a bit wary.] How's your mood? I know that being new here is overwhelming.

[skylynx]

[Wow that's a big door, even for him. Still he's quick to look at the medic as he approaches. He frown at the question. Ever gruff, this one.]

My mood is fine. There is a lot to see here. Nothing like our Cybertron. [This one almost seems...nicer even.] I met a...human, and another Predacon.

[deadlydoctor]

[You know, closer to the Sky, closer to their god. Or maybe the Firstforged are trying to compensate something.]

Another Predacon? Not your brother? Who was he?

Ack, total HTML fail in that tag, and sorry for lateness

[skylynx]

[Yeah, they're definitely compensating.]

She...she said her name was Blackarachnia. She is much smaller, different form. [But just as fierce, don't ask how he knew that.]

SHAME ON YOU, SHAME ON YOUR COW

[deadlydoctor]

[Makes you wonder what's up with Megatronus, he lives in a valley.]

She's a really smart lady and a good friend to have. [Because man, you sure don't want to be on BA's black list.]

/so ashamed!

[skylynx]

[Okay, maybe Megatronus isn't compensating.]

Yes, she appears to be. [He's only just met her of course. But yeah, he got that feeling when she yanked him down to her level.]

How long have you known her?

GOOD. Now go save China

[deadlydoctor]

[Maybe there's something worse going on with him.]

I was surprised to meet a mech that small but she sure can defend herself. [He can only imagine how small she might look to Skylynx, since she is human sized.]

Almost since the day we arrived here. We work together on occasion.
