Transformers E-war: Army of Metal

[dinoman666]

Arachno used his legs to slide down the wall of the building, transforming and following Jetlag from the ground. "That may delay them, but not even weakling Autobots will be halted for long..."

[C S]

Sidewinder turned the corner after the red light he and Burnout had been at for the last minute or so changed to green, keeping with the speed limit of the area. He messaged to Burnout "Am I doing good with the low profile thing?"

[TyrannoTitan]

"All we require is enough time to get to the location...then they will be easy prey." Jetlag responded, flying over the highway, deciding to stick to the roads so Arachno could follow easier...

"Fine, rookie, just don't mess it up." Burnout responded, starting to get annoyed with the amount of traffic, but quickly had a solution. Police sirens blaring, the cruiser carved a path through the traffic, allowing Sidewinder to follow behind him...

[C S]

"Great!" Sidewinder messaged to the police car, increasing his speed to match Burnout's, many drivers who were forced out of the way staring hard at the two vehicles until they were long out of sight

[TyrannoTitan]

Burnout continued to carve through traffic, heading along the highway, which had easier accessibility, until they were near to the bay, in which they would need to take more residential roads...

[C S]

Sidewinder didnt deviate as he followed the Autobot, tires screeching across the black top everytime they had to turn because of the speed in which they were going now that the roads belonged to them in an essance...

[The Kingpin]

taking the Capital Beltway to do an initial speed-patrol, Roadrage began investigating. after this, he'd move onto the smaller roads and do a more in depth search further out...

[dinoman666]

"Good, then this Energon will soon be ours," Arachno replied continuing on the current route, moving along the side of the highway to get past any traffic.

[TyrannoTitan]

The Decepticons moved toward the edge of the state, deciding to move around the capital city in relatively safe areas before heading back in once they were near the bay. Jetlag, as he flew, downloaded maps and traffic charts from the World Wide Web, using them to their advantage...

Burnout reached the turnoff for the highway, tires squealing loudly as he slid into the ramp, heading down into the more residential streets near to the harbor...

[dinoman666]

A distance from the bay, a form burrowed his way through the softer ground, making a less direct journey to the bay...

"Jetlag, I have a signal. Must be a Decepticon scout for the reinforcements," Arachno said, picking up a signal from the object that had hit the coast.

[C S]

Sidewinder followed suit, tires screeching as he sped up behind the police officer, civillian drivers blaring their horns as they passed through the city..

[TyrannoTitan]

OOC: He meant reinforcements from other parts of earth, not space. Scorponok can't just appear out of no where at the destination zone...Just know that Scorponok died, so he probably isn't of his former strength, not to mention he is a scout, not something that can fight actual Transformers and hope to win.

"I have half a mind to pull over these irritating drivers...as much as I fight to protect the humans, I may never understand them." Burnout commented as the blaring of horns continued, now able to see the docked naval ship in the distance...

Jetlag acknowledged his comrade, but said nothing more, focusing on navigating to the bay...

[C S]

"Oh yea?" Sidewinder said, honking his own horn as he sped by the other drivers. "What'cha gonna do? Transform and book'em? Let them honk all they want, they'll only blow their ears out"

[dinoman666]

OOC: Edited. And Scorponok will probably do more ranged support and hit-and-run attacks than anything.

Arachno continued onward, more than eager to get his claws in an Autobot's skull, while Scorponok did the same, trying to get to the bay as quickly as possible...

[TyrannoTitan]

Burnout grunted, which sounded mostly like the car's exhaust puffing, watching as the rest of the bay came into sight, seeing a military checkpoint in front of a section of the port, redirecting cars elsewhere, the naval vessel just beyond said checkpoint..

Moving higher to get a larger view of things, Jetlag could see the bay some distance away, barely able to see the coast at such range, but knew they would arrive soon enough...

[dinoman666]

"Are we close?" asked Arachno, noticing Jetlag move higher.

On the side of a small road, Scorponok emerged from the earth, his featureless eyes zooming in on the distant coastline. Chittering to himself, the scorpion-like Transformer went back underground before any cars showed up, following the road to the bay...

[C S]

Soon after, Sidewinder came to a screeching halt just outside the Check point, the docks just ahead. The AutoBot stayed put for now, the situation now in the hands of the more experianced AutoBot soldier and humans..

[TyrannoTitan]

"Yes...the bay is within sight. Hopefully your reinforcement will keep them distracted long enough for us to arrive..." Jetlag responded, flying lower once more.

Burnout slowed down, stopping at the blocked checkpoint, while a number of sensors mounted on the structures around the checkpoint scanned over the vehicle, the gate on the opposite side opening, allowing Burnout passage toward the vessel...

[C S]

Once Burnout started towards the docks and to the ship, Sidewinder also went on his way, assuming the humans knew he was also an AutoBot, if not from insignia, from the fact he came with the other AutoBot..

[dinoman666]

"No worries. Scorponok just contacted me. He's close to the Autobots' location now," replied Arachno, speeding up slightly.

Scorponok was homing in on the checkpoint, emerging from the ground a distance away. To test the humans' defenses, Scorponok fired a pair of fragmentation rockets from his back, which arced through the air, before plummeting down at the checkpoint's frontmost section...
