Rampant Space Slugs on the Loose!

[Jazzman Crothers]

It was a quiet day in the city of Jekka. All the citizens were walking about, tending to their daily tasks, minding their business and what not. When all seemed to indicate that it would be a quiet day, a rumbling was felt in the ground. Confused, the citizens looked at each other for Cybertron didn't suffer from earthquakes. It was when the ground started to crack open did the panic begin. And out from the depth of Cybertron, the space slugs began to crawl out. Citizens ran for their lives as the slugs started to bite down on anyone who were close enough. The security alarms began to sound off, calling in any Autobots to save the day.

Wreckrotor saw the chaos fom above and saw these slugs devouring citizens, as a citizen was about to get royally chomped Wreckrotor changed forms and dropped, fist clenched he uses the velocity to drive his fist deep into the top of the slug's head as he stood up and said to the slugs "C'mon ins-insecti-slimesluggticons!!! I'll crush all of ya!!!!"

[Jazzman Crothers]

The slug Wreckrotor stood on roared in pain and tried to shake off the Wrecker. Wreckrotor found him falling off the slug, hitting the ground. The slug continued to shake and now it's body was swaying its way at the Autobot.

Character: Hauler


At Autobot HQ in Jekka City, alarms and sirens were going of a cross the base; live feed on wherever there was a monitor dotted around the base was transmitting images via the Cybertron Close Circuit Secutity network of the space slugs tearing up the city. Hauler sweared inwardly and inaudible, he had only been back on Cybertron a few cycles and already hell was breaking loose! Tearing his way along the corridors he transformed when he reached the wider and more space-free loading/cargo bay to the base, transformed and rolled out to the cause of the commotion. When he arrived the space slugs were even bigger and uglier than they had looked on the transmission screen. They dwarfed regular sized bots, even himself at Destroyer size. Half of him wanted to grapple up a building and jump on their back but his more exubarent youthful care-free days were but a distant memory these days..

Out front some bot was trying to take on the slugs single-handedly and was likely to get himself killed, squashed or slimed to death at this rate! Instinctively he openned up his com.

++ "Hey kid, you up front! Fall back to a safe position - you can't take out those slugs on your own! Y'hear me? Fall back to a safe position!" ++

Pulling out his weapons he had to decide - "Shotgun or Scrapmaker, Scrapmaker or Shotgun?! Ah slag it!.." Hauler hoisted his shotgun away then flipped the Scrapmaker over his shoulder and tried to get one of the slugs attention with suppressing fire on the huge metallic beasts!

Hauler smacked a slug's face with bullets, causing energon to shoot out everywhere. The slug began to get angry and looked in Hauler's direction. It opened it's mouth and shot out a stream of slime at Hauler.

Opposite Wreckrotor, and much further away from Hauler, an upturned transport lay smashed and smoking where it had been attacked by a space slug. Across it's side was stamped one word: OMAC. 
The rear doors of the transport burst open with extraordinary force, and Emirate Deadlock emerged, his grizzled face carved into a scowl.
"Oh, Pit no! This used ta be a nice neighborhood! C'mere, ya two-bit mollusks! Show me whatcha got!" 
His hands crackled with electricity, spitting sparks as his magnetic abilities charged up. Spotting the slug bearing down on Wreckrotor, he swung his arms round and sent a pulse of repulsing energy towards it, hoping to knock it sideways long enough for the whippersnapper to get clear. While he laid into the massive creature, he called out in his trademark booming voice, hoping to catch the ear of any Autobots who might be able to lend him a hand.
"Hup hup hup! Nothin' ta see hear! Big time war hero, comin' through!"

Hauler covered his face and head with his arms expecting to be crispy fried - but instead was covered head to to in slime. "Awww man I only got this armor waxed yesterday! Still it looks like the calvary has turned up! As he went to move the goop of slime around his feet stuck he to were he was, when he tried to move he had trouble.

He watched as Emirate Deadlock tried to distract one of the space slugs, "Some bots just never learn!" he quipped to himself sarcastically. "Now what am I going to do about my situation?", he thought. He continued to try and move his feet but strands and strands of slime etched and bogged down his legs between the feet and the puddle around his feet. Only one thing for it. The Autobot slipped down the grill of his vehicle mode on his chest to reveal his Hoister, with a simple dis-attachment he removed it from his chest and began extending out the cord and once he had enough length began swinging it around his head looking for a good, higher place to try and pull himself up to and out of the slime.

"Looks like the glory days aren't quite over.." he thought to himself.

Now angry at the Slug he went to get up, being almost as big as the slugs himself he looked across at the magnabot and then back at the Autobot and simply said "I'm a wrecker, I ain't runnin from anything" he then walked straight up to the magnetised slug, went to grab its eye stalks and pull down, while engaging the pile driver in his other arm as he brought it upwards in a great arc, the intent, punch a hole straight through its head.

OOC: Your no where near that big Prowler, check the image.... tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/7/75/WFC_space_slugs.jpg  Thats Optimus Prime on top of a slug. Have you played War for Cybertron?


Emirate Deadlock moved saved Wreckrotor from being smashed on by the massive slug, allowing the Wrecker to make his move. As his pile-driver struck the slug's head, the slug shook its massive head with pain and swung it to knock Wreckrotor off his feet and backwards, towards Emirate Deadlock. The slug then fired a spread of slime at the two robots. Hauler's hoister hoisted him high, to the ledge of a building close by. He had pulled himself out of the slime but had bits of it still attached to his body. But it seemed that another slug saw the movement and considered Hauler to be food. The massive slimey creature began to crawl up the side of the building after Hauler.

"well there goes my nice quite cycle" I transform and race right in to battle, there where huge slugs everywhere, "where in primus name did theses thing come from?" I keep driving and I bring my guns come out and start blasting the slugs, I soon find the Wreckers in the middle of the street trying to fight off the slugs, I see that one of the slugs is heading towards an wrecker named Hauler, I quickly drive over to the slug trying to eat the wrecker, I transform and did a flip over the slug stabbing the slug with one my knifes in his head, then pulled my gun out and blasted the thing till it pop open. "watch your back wrecker" I say while getting my knife back. I run towards more of the slugs taking my other gun out and blasting more of the slugs, also getting annoyed that i keep getting more slime on myself. I help other wreckers named prowler and jazz with more slugs, "you wrecker should really learn how to watch your backs" I make a little laugh

[Dracoblast]

OOC: no I only played fall sadly, but now I know, sorry

Wreckrotor braced or the impact, grabbing hold of the Slug with both hands, he slid across the floor a few meters and then engaged both his pile drivers once more to push the creature away and didn't let up, moving foreword to unleash a flurry of pile driver fuelled slams, not happening to notice the slime coating his chest for the most part he removed his fusion blaster too and attempted to fire a blast into the slug via its mouth

[Hoist]

From the safety of the ledge, Hauler yelled after the femmebot but she was already headed off towards the others. . "Hey I'm not a Wreck- Ah what's the point!" sighed the bot and began to try and peel of the bits of slug armour left on him, stuck heavily with slime. "Slug armor... it could work! I shall have to talk to the Autobot weapons tech team!" The Autobot had no time to worry about the slug n the side of the building and whether it was still alive or not and looked around for another building to swing to.

He had escaped, for now, but had to get to the ground to help thew others before they got themselves killed. He also had to pull out the heavy stuff which meant being level on the playing field. Below he saw a smaller building and so swung for the higher one to try and land on the smaller of the two. It was times like these he wished he had wings.

:blast! blast!: "geez these thing just keep coming!" i run towards one of the slugs, i jump up then sliced it in half with my staff, then did a somersault and shot another slug a couple feet away. "i so need an oil bath after this" i was curved with slugs guts, :sigh: i kill more slugs and stared to make my away towards the others "hey does anybot know where these thing came from?"

[Jazzman Crothers]

OOC: Ooooooooooooooooooooooh KAY.

Prowler, a slug shot a stream of slime from it's mouth at you but you didn't post a response to it.

Lightstream, you must post attempts and not successful actions. And the slugs are far too massive to just cut in half. Click on this link to see how bog they are.  tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/7/75/WFC_space_slugs.jpg

And it is not Prowler in this fight. Its Prowler using his character Wreckrotor. And myself or Jazz is not in this fight, I am merely the GM of it. For now anyways.

Deadlock lunged bodily to one side as the slime burst towards him, his old joints creaking in protest. He shouted to Wreckrotor.
"Move, ya little punk! You wanna get slimed?! Ye'll smelly funny fer weeks!"
