[Well that was the… oddest thing he’s woken up to in a while. He doesn’t usually wake up on an alter with robbed figures standing around apologizing for him being somewhere. A different Cybertron? Different how? That sounds impossible. He only waited around long enough for what they said to get boring and then he left. Now he has to figure out how to work this thingy he has. Hrm… what does this do…?]
Skylynx? Are you here, Skylynx?
[The sound of one claw tapping on the Link comes through before the video flicks on, showing bright yellow optics and a lean face crowned with horns. Those optics blink a couple times as the owner of the Link leans back slightly.]
I am trying to find my brethren, Skylynx. He is silver and blue, with red accents, and is about my height. [He pauses, snickering.] But he is not nearly as pretty as I am.
If you have seen him in his other form, I am sure you know. Tell him that Darksteel wishes to find him.
Skylynx if you hear this, I am coming to find you.
[He shuts off his Link and shortly after something that looks remarkably like a robotic gryphon can be seen flying out from Vector’s temple, in a spiral that becomes increasingly wide until it ceases all together. He can’t help it if he’s catching sight of things he’s curious about. What is all of this, he’s never seen a Cybertron like this one. His is certainly less… new than this one.]

[Video]
[Excuse him. He's never seen a creature quite like you before.
New Cybertron indeed.]
[Video]
... Hello!
[Video]
There's a slight smile on his face as he holds up (his only) hand.]
Hello. I'm sorry for staring. I've just never seen a Cybertronian like you before.
[Video]
I am a Predacon. My kin and I are the only ones like us anymore.
I have never seen a Cybertronian like you, either.
[Darksteel you've seen like twelve Cybertronians, tops.]
[Video]
[Fascinating, though. They seem almost beast like, but with sentience.]
Then I suppose this is a new situation for us both.
[Video]
[Yes and yes.]
It is. I am Darksteel. Who are you?
[Video]
[Congrats, Darksteel, you've rendered this bird speechless. Robot dinosaur cloning is not what he was expecting for an explanation.]
My name is Metalhawk.
[That's all he can get out.]
[Video]
That is a very good name. Though it sounds like one that would belong to a Predacon.
[ARE YOU SECRETLY A PREDACON?]
[Video]
Perhaps I'm merely reminiscent. It seems like you're as lost as I am in this world. Would you like some assistance?
[Video]
[Is that right? All he knows is that it's big and has a lot of perches.]
[Video]
[A small cast eye down to his wounds.]
I pray it is not a long walk.
[Video]
[Oh. Oh wait he knows the answer to this one.]
Give me a close landmark, I can find you! I am very quick, it will not take me long.
[Video]
Follow the light. I'm by what looks to be a tower that can glow for miles.
[Video -> Action]
[At least it will be easy for him to find to get there. He shuts off the Link before transforming and taking to the sky. Time to find him a yellow guy!]
[Action]
It was nice, seeing some so openly friendly.]
[Action]
Besides, friends means more people to play with.
Finding the light and following it was easy enough, he just had to angle his path down once he got closer to see if he could spot the bot from the vide- ah! There.
He adjusts his trajectory a little and angles the metal 'feathers' of his wings to take him down, tucking in his legs to gain speed.
Metalhawk is about to get air-pounced by a huge monster that looks very excited about the proceedings.
At least the direction he's coming from won't hurl them off of something?]
[Action]
Looking up at him.
Those eyes couldn't have been more wide if they tried.]
You're much...larger than I imagined.
[Action]
Shortly afterwards he transforms, still snickering.
The look on Metalhawk's face is so funny.]
So I am told. Heheh. Gotcha.
[Action]
So you did.
[The shock wears off, with a small smile replacing it as he puts a hand on that 'claw'.]
I take it these are for...hunting.
[Action]
They are indeed. I have yet to meet a Predacon that lacks them.
[He waggles his claws briefly before moving to let Metalhawk sit up.]
We are excellent hunters, and warriors.
[Action]
You don't need to convince me. If I was your prey, I'm sure I'd be long gone.
...
Predacon. So that is your...faction?
[Action]
Predacon is my species. I know of Cybertronians' factions, the Autobots and Decepticons.
My kind are older than all that.
[Action]
You mean you predate our own kind?
[A hand instinctively reaches out, as if amazed a being like Darksteel actually exists. But it quickly draws back, out of embarrassment.]
Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. You're just magnificent.
[Action]
You do not offend, you flatter!
[Go ahead, he won't bite. Much.]
My kind ruled Cybertron, until we went extinct during the Great Cataclysm.
[Action]
No faction for this one, it made him feel slightly less alone.]
Extinct? But you're alive, aren't you?
Were you pulled from death like I was?
[Action]
