[The feed clicks on just in time for a rather loud metallic clang, and a yelp. Hope nobody was sleeping at this time.]

Ow.

[And then the familiar deep voice of Bulkhead. He groans a moment, before there's the sound of metal scraping against metal. Seems where ever he picked to hide out, wasn't a very good fit for when he changed back. Whoops.]

Stupid fraggin' pillar. Good riddance to it. [He grumbles a moment, before he realizes the feed is on.] Uh, hey. I'm back, finally. [Man is it so nice to be able to TALK again!]

Even if I was here before, as that stupid wolf thing. Guess the pillar left parting gifts. Heh. At least we don't gotta worry about it anymore. Sorry to anybody I worried, I couldn't even talk then. Everybody okay?

[And after a bit, once he gets himself situated there's a locked message to the rest that went to the core.]

[Locked to those that went to the core.]

Uh, everybody else back to normal? Has Thundercracker been found yet? Thundercracker, if you hear this, check in, huh?

[And not long after that, another locked message.]

[Locked to Solus Prime.]

Uh, if you're here again, Solus. I hope you hear this. I saw my glyph glowin', and helped me figure out how to take out the pillar.

I, uh...just wanted to say thanks. Whatever it was that you did. [He's assuming it was her doing.] It was a big help. Thank you.

[It's genuine and appreciative, and he hopes she does get this.]

Maybe he went into the Badlands.

It's not something I'd like to have happened, but it's still a possibility, considering what usually happens when bots go missing.

[That's a long pause. Bulk hadn't wanted to think of that possibility, but it was always there. Sentinel can't see it, but his expression pretty much went numb. Just another part of this world to not like.]

Yeah. It's possible that he did. Why not, right in the middle of what was happening, nobody would notice.

The ultimate punishment for us attacking it: Rip one of our teammates away forever.

Well, the Pillar never made any claims to altruism.

It's just an idea; we don't know for sure. He might turn up in the next few days, who knows?

Yeah, I guess.

I hope he does. We don't need to be losin' others.
