Envoy hissed. "As much as I hate to admit it, I believe you. I will hunt that medic Ornge to his grave if I have to... I will find the Note. I have not quarrel with you." He made as if to leave, but at the last moment spun around, flinging his sword expertly with a lazy flick of his wrist. "However, there can be no witnesses to my plan..."
Firebrand pushed the strange Autobot he'd rescued back gently, patting his shoulder. "Don't worry. We'll get your friend. However, if the Decepticons are after you, you're not safe. You can stay with us at Ascendancy Headquarters for a while, until things quieten down. Is there anything you'd like us to get for you? Personal effects from you-" Before Firebrand could finish speaking, Stopcock had thrust a needle as long as his own forearm into Ornge's shoulder. "If the Tormentium's starting to wear off, you a may feel a sliiiight pinch..."

Bulletcharger just watched Envoy in silence, showing off no emotion. He much rather looked ... bored, unamused. He was used to fighting, being beaten, tossed around and mangled like some rag doll. He tilted a head slightly to the side. "I see. In that case I wish you good luck, sir." He watched him spin back around with the same, unenthusiastic look. The staff clicked onto the floor with a loud BANG, electricity flaring up the sides again with a hiss. "I see that makes good sence aswell. But if you wish to leave in one piece and not like that hole in your back... I'd suggest you turn around and leave now." His gaze intensified, hardening. The staff raised up to his face casting earie purple shadows dancing across his face with a menacing apperance. The sword Envoy had so neatly flung towards him flung towards his shoulder. It was either Bulletcharger feeling to lazy to dodge, to prouve his endurance, or the just plain magnetic cling that pulled the sword towards him, but no matter what the sword flung around and lodged in his shoulder. Bulletcharger stood there, sword stuck in the side of his shoulder, staff still in sight. It stung, stung hard, but his testing experiments left him used to hard pain and being torn apart savagely. He frowned, glancing at the sword, then to Envoy.
"Have you ever wondered that this ... Note might not belong to him, but to rather someone else in his shop that day?"
~~~
Ornge was getting frustrated. He didn't refuse being pushed down, but his optic band darkened angrily. "You don't understand.... I have to find her NOW! That is WHY I'm in trouble!" He grunted in frustration, and pulled slightly away from Stopcock as the needle stuck into his arm. He stopped, silent and just laying there. "I need to go ... fast. I appretiate your offer, but I really need to .. help. Gosh I hate puzzles. I need to find where Rivers Meet!" He said, trailing off from the others and yelling out to the sky; speaking his thoughts. He grunted in frustration, staring up thoughtfully.

Firebrand frowned. "Fair enough. I guess we'll be parting, then, unless you'd like to borrow a Spacebridge to where you need to go..." He rummaged in his subspace pocket, pulling out a small disk, similar in appearance to the Seal of Ascendancy, but smaller. He held it out to Ornge. "Panic button. You need help at any point, just twist it anti clockwise ninety degrees for urgent, one eighty for... not so urgent. We'll find you." Stopcock had finished draining the Tormentium, placing the needle in his subspace pocket. "Hah! Really got a way with words, aint'ya? I'll take this back to HQ and have Ninevolt Analise it..." Suddenly, a hole in the wall opened, revealing a blinding white light. Firebrand stepped to wards it, turned around, saluted and dove through, followed swiftly by Stopcock.
Envoy of The Dark smiled sarcastically. "Have you considered that the mech in question would know if someone had entered his shop and received a note?" Although he was slightly weirded out by Bulletcharger's calmness, he fired another Ion Blast, a look of pure rage on his face.

Ornge stood up and looked greatfully at the heroic mechs walking off. He caught the divice and held onto it firmly. "Thanks.... I really mean it...." Smilling, he watched them leave, waiting a little bit, and transformed into his earthen helicopter alternate mode. Powering up, he chopped his way over a ways towards Cricket's place. It wasn't far from his shop, and once he could firmly see Bulletcharger's house, Ornge dropped down and ran along instead. He mirged into the crowds and towards Thunderclap. 'Please still be there....'
Bulletcharger was blasted back weakly. He clattered with a heavy thunk on the ground and quickly sat up. He was still tried, sore and even more tired. With a grunt he stood up, tall, strong and looming. He reached over to the sword and yanked it the rest of the way out. The metal clung fast to his hand as he tried to drop it. With a hiss in annoyance, he shook his arm roughly a few times before it clattered to the ground. "Curse this magnetism..." He spat in annoyance, and once the sword was off, he turned his attention back to Envoy of the Darkk. His optic band darkened. Now it was his turn. "Of course, but he might have given you an answer so willingly, knowing that you would pass it by as a simple fact. There coudl have been something, or someone he mentioned who could know where this Note was. Like a puzzle, or a riddle. He could have given you the answer without you even knowing it..." It was more of a provoke, to get this mech angry and loose focus, but it might have also been true. With a growl, he walked close, staff buzzing and casting eeris shadows across the dimly lit room. He raised his staff and swung it at the Envoy's head as if he were trying to slice it in half.

Envoy of The Dark gritted his teeth in annoyance. He'd allowed the Autobot to let him lose his focus. Diving and rolling again, he made for his sword, but was hit full force by the swinging staff. Grunting, he flew through the air, hitting the wall with a sickening crunch. Falling to the floor, he fell onto his hands and knees, looking up defiantly at Bulletcharger.

Bulletcharger didn't move from where he had struck. He straightened up proudly and tall, looming over the figure on his knees. "Leave now." He said darkly. "I hurt and pulse with pain everywhere. Offline is the best statis for me at the moment until Ornge can finish repairs. Go away so I can sleep." He said truthfully. He hurt everywhere, and his body showed it. While he was tall and looming, his arms tensed and loosened and his teeth gritted in pain behind it's mask. His legs shook every now and then, rarely, yet still there and he seemed down right exhausted. He woudl go back to sleep, that was true. His memories would fog and be pushed away until woken once again.
Ornge rounded a corner and slammed right into Thunderclap. He rammed into her full force as she was rounding the corner, both stumlbing backwards and falling over. Thunderclap leaped back up to her feet and shrieked. "ORNGE!!! YOU'RE ALIVE!" She watched the medic rise up to his own feet before running a step forwards and giving him a huge tackle hug. Ornge had to take a few steps back to steady himself, a firm. OOF escaping his oxygen tanks as Thunderlcpa slammed into him. "Hey there. I'm fine, thanks to some... friends.... have you got any ideas?" "I was so worried... and I dunno.... I was thinking about talking to shipwreck.. he might now where Rivers are!" She looked up at him, hopefully, relfecting his brother's fears. Shipwreck was huge, ginormous and definitely able to hold off a few decepticons....

Envoy of The Dark scowled. "Very well. I leave... for now. But be warned, Autobot scum... this is not over. My master will reign supreme... and when that day comes, Armageddon will come upon this planet. Tell your friend, the medic... the end is nigh." And with a dark flash of black light, if such a thing can exist, Envoy of The Dark was gone.
Firebrand was sat, a flask of energon fluid gripped in his servo. Stopcock looked at him, just sitting there, staring into space. "Troubled, old friend?" "Aye, messmate, a little. I'm just thinking about what that bot said, about where rivers meet... I think I might know where he means..." Stopcock slapped him on the back, grinning at the younger bot. "Well, if you can work it out, I'm sure he can!" "Oy!" And Firebrand, just for a moment, was a child again, chasing Stopcock around the Dock, a look of fun and happiness on his face. From a distane, Ninevolt watched with tears in her eyes...

Bulletcharger stiffened as Envoy left. He frowned and shuffled back to his chair. He sighed, feeling tired, in pain and just plain bored. With a huff, he debated calling Ornge, thought about it and let it drift on a little. He sat back down and took a deep breath. He was going back to sleep until Ornge came looking for him... or he was disturbed once again...
Ornge and Thunderclap had made their way to the docks, the two of them happy and not talking about this strange happened. A quick explaination of what happened after Ornge had told Thunderclap to leave was in order, and once all the hard talking was done they worked their way over to the docks where Shipwreck was. The large battleship looked much at peace, leaning against the docks, sitting inbetween two of them, using one as a head rest, and the other as a foot rest. He was stretched out, and dozing lightly. When Thunderclap came skipping down to his head, he grinned sat up and lowered his hand from behind his head into a fist. He reached and stretched out one figer for Thunderclap to smack her hand onto as a big high five. They all laughed.
"Thunderclap! It's been a while.... and Ornge! Good ta see ye again.." The large mech greeted.
Ornge smiled back in responce, Thunderclap giggling like a little kid like always and sitting down so she could look at Shipwreck in the face. "I'd say so!" She grinned.
"We've come here looking for your help too actually..."

A lone figure followed Ornge and Thunderclap to the docks. He'd dismissed his gaurd, removed his tracer and destroyed his bugs. This was too important to be shared with anyone else. He saw them meet with the larger bot, and hesitated. He drew back, behind a corner, and waited. He needed to talk to them alone...
Envoy of The Dark appeared next to the decrepid Decepticons, defeated by the Ascendancy. He scowled, before gathering their bodies into a pile, standing on it, and teleporting away.

Ornge was standing towards the edge of the dock, when he thought he saw something behind him. He frowned. "Thunderclap.... you explain... I'll be right back...." He left his sister to explain to Shipwreck, while the medic wandered off the docks. He started wandering around, clearly looking around for something. He quickly commed his sister.
++COMM++ "Thunderclap, don't tell Shipwreck yet. You never know who could be listening. Keep a lively conversation for now, wait until I get back...." ++END COMM++
This was making him slightly nervous.

The figure watched Ornge detatch himself from the others. "Slaggit." He muttered. He was heading straight for him. He remained calm, taking a few steps back. Perhaps it was better that he confront one, rather than both. Yes... much easier. He needn't get both involved...

Ornge, walking with perfect posture as always, was still looking around for this... figure? He didn't know what it was, or if he was just imagining things, but at least Thunderclap was keeping her lip buttoned and just talking about what ever other then the note for the time being. That was releif. He needed to get the three of them to someplace where no one could find them at the moment... but with Shipwreck's size it was hard....
"Hello? Is anyone there?"

The figure took a deep breath and prepared himself. Ornge was in for a nasty suprise... So focused, he was, on what he was going to say, he nearly missed the sudden drop in temperature. He almost missed the flash behind him. But he didn't. And he knew just who it was to ran their sword through him, cuasing him to cry out and fall to his knees. He knew who it was who teleported away, his cold snigger echoing in his ears. Emirate Deadlock shivered with pain. "Neo... you fool..."

Ornge was still looking around, he turned around a corner and froze. He heard something, almost like a yelp or a cry out. Whispers reached his ears, yet to distant to hear exactly. He wheeled around and ran off to where he last heard something. What he saw made him freeze in his tracks. Ornge made quick hast and slid over to the figure on his knees. He kneeled down, almost eye level. "Are you alright? Wait... that was a stupid question... of course your not.... what happened?"

Emirate Deadlock looked up, eyes filled with pain. "Ach... Ornge. I've been looking for you... You must leave Cybertron... for now at least. Neo Convoy... the evil Neo Convoy... he is hunting you. As long as you're here... you and your friend... Aren't safe. Neo Convoy will hunt you... he wants that note... so badly... Go! Go while you can!" The erstwhile politician coughed, and collapsed. He could speak no more.
