The skimmer sped across the vast western ocean for some time, leaving a wave of water in it's wake. They pa$$ed several sea turtles swimming near the surface and a lot of other marine life. Eventually they saw an island in the near distance. [glow=red,2,300]Thats it, that's where the signal is strongest. I will do a circle first to scout it out...[/glow]
The skimmer turned to its side and began the circle. The Island was naturally formed that was for sure, like it had broken away from a vaster continent or island many centuries ago. Lush green gra$$es formed the majority of the surface yet their were several small rocky regions dotted around particularly to the north. In the centre though was a small built up area. Entirely mad eof metal and rselbimg cybertornian design it rose several stories high. One centre piece building surrounded by four others, all interlinked by walkways. Atop the centre was a large radar dish that looked like it might be where the signal was being sent and recieved from.

[glow=red,2,300]I will not land near that base till we have scouted it for any defences first.
We'll set down over there...[/glow] he indicated a small clearing near a rocky outcrop. [glow=red,2,300]Then approach the compound cautiously[/glow]

SW:"All right, but i think we need extreme caution when approaching this base."

[glow=red,2,300]Says he who just wanted to land in the middle of the base... Still no matter we proceed on the ground in beast mode.[/glow] the ship set down and TC exited in crab mode, his fuzor squid tentacles thrashing through the air behind him.

SW exited the ship in Wold mode. He began to follow Terrorclaw.
SW:"Lead the way"

Two progressed unhindered until they reached the outskirts of the compund. Surrounding it was a huge wire fence more than 10 times their height. Likely it was designed to keep things in or out of similar size to the techno organic beasts.
[glow=red,2,300]There appears to be a gate over there but it's locked... what now?[/glow]

Shadow Wolf examend the fence from where he was. There was no way for them to jump over. But Shadow Wolf might be able to climb over it. but who knew if the fence was electric or if cameras were on the fence.
SW:" I might be able to climb the fence in robot mode, but i don't like our chances of the fence being electric or if survalance is focused on the fence.
We may find another way in if we go back a bit and circle around.
Do you have any ideas?"

[glow=red,2,300]Apart from the fact thjat there is a continuous signal being sent and recieved ther eis no evidence that this base is still active in any way.
Who knows how many centuries it has sat here for, completely unattended.
I prefer my way...[/glow] Terrorlcaw raised his blaster claw and fired, ripping a hole through the fence.
[glow=red,2,300]See no problem![/glow] he chuckled before a small alarm went off.

SW:"Trust a Predacon to be all action. See what youve done.
Now we can either go on and ignore the alarm, or wait here and see if anything happens."

[glow=red,2,300]We move on oif course, I will destroy any who oppose us![/glow] Terrorclaw laughed, a bit too eagerly.
The duo crossed through the fence two gun turrets popped up freom hidden chambers beneath the grass and started firing at them in short bursts.

SW:"Shadow Wolf MAXIMISE"
Shadow Wolf changed to his wolf mode as he began to run and dodge the blasts.
SW:"Move Terrorclaw. i don't want to have to save ur hide as well."

[glow=red,2,300]Ah but is it worth it![/glow] the Warlord snarled and fired at one turrer destroying it in a huge explkosion as the electron chmaber detonated. The second gun fired and impacted on his shoulder scorching the shell. Terrorclaw returned the favour with another blast to the gun emplacement and blew that one away too. [glow=red,2,300]Come on Maximal![/glow] he said ignoring the pain in his shoulder and headed for the main building's door. [glow=red,2,300]Old cynbertronian code... I downloaded it from the scanner system[/glow] he said and punche dthe digits into the over sized G1 style door keypad. The giant metal door retracte don old hinges, grating on the dusty cogs that had sat there unmoving for Primus knew how long. Before the two was a deep corridor that ended in a lift.

SW:"Who knows how long this palce has been here."
He looked at the long coridor and the lif t at the end.
SW:"I think we have to head down thta lift, but i think we need to be cautios down this corridor"

[glow=red,2,300]If the rest of the defenses are as atiquitated as those turrets we have nothing to worry about![/glow] Terrorclaw said and started to walk forward down the corridor. Thw two were abouty half way down when SW stood on a pressure pad and the entrance sealed behind them. [glow=red,2,300]WHat now...[/glow] the Predacons began before he was cut off by the sound of machinery whirring into life. Two hatches opened either sid eof them and two swining pendulums sped out each one tipped with an energon blade that left a red haze in the air behind it. [glow=red,2,300]Don't fire, if we try to disconnect the pole of the pendulum it might rupture the energon flow to the blade and detonate[/glow]
