[The video is only on for a few moments - long enough to show a purple bot with wide shoulders, a samurai helmet, and glowing yellow optics - before shutting off. After that is a burst of text.]

Many of you exceed WRB height restrictions. You also violate a number of other WRB regulations, including illegal use of weapons and possession non-standard upgrades.

I am not where I should be.

[He would just like to let you all know YOU ARE SO ILLEGAL. SO. ILLEGAL now down to a few extra messages-]

If anyone happens to see Charlie Kenton I would like to be informed. He is a human with short, dark hair and brown eyes. He also has a son, Max. I do not wish them to be alone with unfamiliar bots if they come here.

Gunmax. Thank you for the ride, when we arrived. It was kind of you.

To the bot with the fins on his head: My name is Noisy Boy. 'Soundwave' is a terrible name.

And there was a red and white bot. I apologize if I fightened you somehow.

You were closer when you guessed my creators.

But you did well.

So humans built you, huh? And...rules? You in some kind of gladiator fighting?

Correct. I am a boxer in the World Robot Boxing league.

[Or he was, anyway.]

Now that's somethin' I could get behind...

[He seems contemplative for a moment.]

A job in wreckin' up other bots? Sounds like the life for me.

It is less about the wrecking and more about the knockout and pleasing the crowd, in the WRB. Wrecking is for the Underworld circuit.

[Which he personally disapproves of. Heartily.]

Huh, it really is like the Gladiator pits then. Take it you're part of the former.

I am. The WRB has higher standards.

Good to know. Sounds like it can get pretty gruesome.

It can. The Underworld allows illegal moves and are generally matches to the death. I do not approve of these practices.

[If a bot happens to end up in a bad way during a WRB match, they can at least - usually - be repaired.]

[For entertainment purposes? That sounded inefficient. He was going to guess that making something like Noisy Boy was expensive...so fights to the death didn't seem cost effective.]

Guess it leaves it open for rigged matches too. Pretty shady.

I would not know; all of my matches were won - and lost - fairly, I think. Only a bot's operator would know that.

[And they weren't always privy to what their handlers did, at that. Noisy has faith in the honesty of his, though.]

[So it was all secret to humans. He'd like to believe they're all good too, but...he's heard some stories.]

Glad to see ya got faith in your operator. ...I take it they're not here?

[He knows they aren't all good - he's heard his fair share of stories - but... his are, he's sure.]

No. That is why I was hoping to be informed, if Charlie or Max Kenton are seen. Charlie is my current operator.

I'll keep an eye out.

[It's got to be like a human partner/Autobot thing, and he can respect that at least.]

Charlie or Max, got it.

Thank you. I would not want them getting over their heads here, which could happen too easily.

[All of these huge bots that weren't made by humans running around and all.]

I do not think you have told me your name before.

[He won't lie, he's pretty amazed that Noisy Boy seems so sentient for something a human made. It's pretty touching. If...Wheeljack admitted that kind of stuff.]

Ya remind me of my friend Bulkhead. He's got a human who tends to get in over her head too.

...Name's Wheeljack.

[If only Noisy's humans had noticed. Then again, they didn't make it particularly obvious to them anyway. Better that they kept it quiet.]

Max would be fine - he likes robots. Though perhaps too much. But Charlie does not seem comfortable with change.

Then it is nice to meet you, Wheeljack.

[Hrm. Good name for a bot. Plenty to work with for catchphrases.]

Yeah, that sounds like Miko alright. She always rushes into situations if it involves guys like us. Seems like Charlie's the more rational one.

[Oh Wheeljack, if only you knew.]

Nice ta meet you too, Noisy.

Charlie can have his reckless moments. Particularly when it comes to fights, I have found.

[Point in fact Max is the reasonable one when it comes to Noisy Boy's safety.]

Miko sounds like she might enjoy WRB matches.

[He gives a slight chuckle at that. Oh, he could only imagine how Miko would react to Robot Boxing. She was all up on monster trucks as it is, and robots were her life...]

It's definitely the thing she'd get into.

[She'd probably love you even more, Noisy, with your appearance.]

[If he knew that, he'd be so pleased. He might be biased, but the humans from Japan are his favorites.]

She sounds like my kind of person.

[Of course, he hasn't met a robot or boxing fan he didn't like.]

[Can't blame you for that, Noisy. That's your homeland~]

Who knows, maybe you'll meet her one day.

Maybe. And perhaps you will be able to meet Max and Charlie.

[He's pretty sure they'd like you. Giant sassy robots and all.]

Lookin' forward to it. From the way you're speakin' they sound like some good humans to meet.

They are. They like robots, too. [And since they haven't met ones they know are sentient, it should be interesting to see.]
