[Text] [Transmission Originating From: Vectorian Sector]

One of the creatures has gotten into Vector Prime's temple. I cannot keep it occupied forever.

Requesting assistance.


[He's grateful that's it's only a couple feet taller than him - he can compensate for that - and for the fact that he was built to be as flashy as he is. He can keep the ugly thing interested in him.

But... well, half the people he knows warned him to call if something happened, and this is definitely something.]

[Slipstream shutters one optic in a wink, just to make it more obvious she's acting. She wouldn't want anyone to get the idea she's genuinely helpless or that it has anything to do with the slight difference between herself and her template.]

[As the monster moves ever closer, in its curious, off-balance manner, Slipstream continues to play helpless. Wait, she tells herself. Wait. Then, as it swings a fleshy appendage, Slipstream sweeps its feet with one leg. The blunt, swollen appendage scuds just over Slipstream's faceplate as the monster twists in the air and falls headfirst from the ledge.]

[Slipstream turns and looks over the edge. She can see the monster moving down there; it's not dead. But it is no longer a threat.]

It's alive. Guess there's some safeguard. But, it doesn't look like it can climb back up.

[Slipstream only looked to the boxer for a moment, before returning to tracking the monster. She saw something like walkways and lifts, probably to allow friendlies to get back up, but this particular monster didn't seem to have either the intelligence or agility to make use of them.]

Maybe I could call and see if the Big Bots want it.

[Slipstream stands. She turns to one side to look at the boxer.]

They're in charge, so it doesn't hurt to do them favors, right? You'll get all due credit, of course.

Do you have a designation? Like Boxbot5000 or Slipstream? My designation is Slipstream.

[She's not sure the bot talks, though comprehension and text communication don't seem too difficult.]

Noisy Boy. Guess that's one of those ironic nicknames.

[Shrug.]

Don't know if anyone can get cuffs on that thing, but maybe a leash? Think the acolytes have something?

Boy could be taken as demeaning. [Nod.]

Why don't I see about the call, and you check with the acolytes? [She taps her helmet, as if expecting Noisy to understand the gesture for comms.]
