[b]Unicron Investigation Team Touchdown Date: Unknown[/b] Appearing in a bright flash of light Brainwave and Joe make their landing in an unknown yet strikingly familiar city. As the light fades they survey their surroundings for the first time in amazement. "Well I can't say this is what I was expecting at all." The shock in Brainwave's voice evident. "Scans indicate we did make contact with the Unicron Singularity but... it only appears to be in its beginning stages at this point it time. This doesn't mesh with the readings in Axiom Nexus. I can only conclude we have been thrown back in time." "Hm, I can only that means we are completely cut of from the Transtechs." "Indeed Joe. Whatever happened, whatever is going to happen, it is up to us and us alone to stop it." "I like the sound of that." Megatron said while snickering as he began his plotting. The potential of hijacking Unicron's power weighing heavily on his mind. "You're a fool if you're really plotting that. The last sap that tried that got possessed." Brainwave walked off while continuing his scans paying little head to Megatron's ambitions. "This city..." "At first glance it looks like a modified version of Autobot City but that would be absurd, yes." "Absurd as it sounds it is Autobot City. Primax 984.17 Alpha to be precise. But clearly modified with technology from an unknown source. Not sure why they'd bother unless they were strapped for resources. In any case our first priority is setting up a base of opperations. Preferably away from here. The last thing we need is Lowtech Autobots getting in the way." "Hey you!." An unknown voice echoed across the alley snapping Brainwave from his thoughts. "Who are you and what are you doing here?" Studying the unknown mech Brainwave noted several things. First it was piloted by an organic, second it was using Lowtech Cybertronian technology. "Why exactly would they share their technology with a race as primitive as you? Do you even have FTL technology yet?" "Silence Decepticon, I'm the one asking questions here!" The pilot's voice coming out as forceful as he could manage. "How dare you try to brand me with such an arbitrary term. On my planet Autobot and Decepticon is a meaningless distinction. Don't try to lay Lowtech stupidity like that war they always have on me." Brainwave's patients for the primative quickly evaporating as Megatron laughed in the background. "Look, you entered a Titan military base without clearance. You're both coming with me." The indignant glare the pilot received from Brainwave made his blood run cold. "Listen here you stupid primitive, DO NOT tell me what to do. It was not my intention to land here and I will be going as soon as I decide where I want to go. I have no interest in your Lowtech city. Now begone!" "I... I can't do that. I'm base security and I have my orders." His fear readily apparent. "Oh please let me deal with the silly human, I owe them some payback. Yes!" Joe's sneer further terrifying the pilot. "St...stop or I'll shoot!" Practically shivering in terror at this point. "Oh enough of this." Declared Brainwave as he remote hacked and deactivated the mech. "Ignore the Lowtechs, we have far more pressing matters." "As you wish." Grumbled Megatron as the pilot sat in his darkened cockpit completely in shock of what just transpired. Elsewhere another human watched in fascination at the pair you were so unconcerned with their security and so easily brushed off a security unit. "Most interesting. If their technology is advanced as he seems to be boasting we must have it so no one will ever dare challenge us again." His excitement was evident but he knew he must tread lightly for if their technology was as advanced as it seemed to be capturing them would be exceptionally hard. Especially if the leader of the team was a Decepticon. "Come on, let's get out of this stupid city." Brainwave declared. "Get me Los Betas. I have a job for them." The Titan's base commander smirking as he figured he'd be dealing with two birds with one stone. Getting rid of some useless idiots and gathering some necessary intel in the process. The alien Cybertronians barreled through the city in their vehicle modes leaving base security off balance and confused. Anyone that had managed to line up a shot found their mobile suit disabled before they could pull the trigger. Others had no idea what they were looking for because of the communications disruptions caused by the mass hackings. This was something beyond their capabilities to deal with. It required someone special to deal with. It required an ace pilot! Sadly they weren't getting one... "Preet, get ready for launch. You have a target." This is the moment Preet had been waiting for. A chance to prove his greatness, to prove the value of his ways. Sadly for Preet everything he thought was simply a set up. Something he'd learn eventually but not today. "Alright Los Betas it's time to show the world what we can do! Time to make everyone that ever laughed at us eat their words! Move out." While the team cheered as they moved out every Titan that knew anything snickered at their confidence knowing they were about to get their asses kicked. Brainwave and Megatron neared the exit of the city with no more resistance in sight. They thought they were home free until a cannon shot hit in front of them. "Halt evil doers!" Transforming they prepared for battle against the exceptionally odd looking mechs. "You should just let us go if you know what's good for you. I have no interest in ridiculous primitives. If you force this I make no promises about your survival." For anyone with a semblance of sanity Brainwave's curt warning would have been considered but Preet was not a sane individual. He had been convinced he was an elite Titan pilot and he intended to prove it or die trying. Drawing his sword Preet charged at Brainwave intent on cutting him in two. At the last second Brainwave caught the wrist of Preet's mech stopping the strike dead in its tracks. "You know this is really pathetic. Not only does your mech make you look like an imbecile it's weaker than a newborn protoform. Face it you're way out of your league kid." Delivering a swift kick to the torso Brainwave sent Preet's mech flying into a building all but flattening it. "I'm going to say it one more time, stand down if you know what's good for you." All Preet could do was groan in pain having been caught completely off guard by the power of this unknown Cybertronian. It'd be a few minutes before he got his bearings. The rest of Los Betas prepared to charge in the name of their leader. "Well if you insist on being idiots we'll make you regret it." As the first two members of Los Betas made their charge Brainwave and Megatron pulled their guns and disabled them with a single shot each. The rest of Los Betas having the first clever idea of this deployment decided to swarm en mass from multiple directions. Sadly they were too slow and the Cybertronians dodged all their sword strikes with easy. One of the more strategic members took an opening to nail Megatron with a cannon shot while he was dodging a sword blow. Megatron took a single step back and laughed. "You're have to do far better than that weakling! Put some effort into it." Throughly enjoying himself toying with the helpless squadron not even bothering to counter attack. Meanwhile Branwave had been disabling them with a combination of crack aiming, very crude close combat techniques, and nanite infusion as he avoided their attacks. "You know Joe, this would go a lot faster if you stopped dicking around and started KOing a few of them. Maybe with that spiffy sword I gave you..." By this point Megatron had stopped dodging completely realizing they couldn't hurt him at all. "Bah fine I'll stop playing around." Summoning his sword from transwarp space Megatron began downing them with equal ease and in short order the squad was completely disabled. "Primitives are such an irritant." Brainwave sighed. Preet woke up as Brainwave was checking his downed squad. Seeing Brainwave was off guard Preet made charged blind with rage. Before he even got to Brainwave he felt something else hit him, much harder than before. Megatron hadn't stopped paying attention and blindsided Preet mid charge not that Preet would have hurt Brainwave at all. It was just funny. "You know I injected that stupid mech with nanites the first time I grabbed it right?" Brainwave said while making sure he injected them into the rest of the squad just in case. "It's not like he was going to hurt you anyways I just found it amusing." Having finished Brainwave looked at Megatron. "Whatever. Let's get out of here and find a place to set up a base." Transforming back to vehicle mode they left the city leaving 3 city blocks heavily damaged by their melee, all of Los Betas disabled by some means or another, and eleven security units remote hacked. The Titans would never forget this day and neither would Preet.
