Aboard the Impactor, Hyperion staggers to an emergency repair kit on the wall and extracts a laser scalpel. Activating internal fuel cutoffs and power relay couplings, he disconnects his fuel and energy systems from his right arm and proceeds to use the scalpel to slowly cut off his right arm at the shoulder. As the others look at him while he stifles back the pain, he casually throws the arm onto a chair and turns to the others.
What? At the moment I can't use the arm, the internal interlocks are fused solid and it's just so much dead weight at the moment. At least like this there's no arm to cause pain.
Standing on his feet a little unsteadily, Hyperion's grimace gradually fades from his blackened form and he heads towards a bottom hatch on the ship.
Whirl, I'm going to head outside. I can't transform but I can still give those frakking decepticons a pounding they won't forget even in robot mode and with only one weapon. Coming through!
With that, Hyperion opens the hatch, jumps out and activates his ankle mounted thrusters to match speed swith the ship, sticking close and taking potshots at any interceptors that come too near.

[glow=red,2,300]" Where's Hyperion at?"[/glow]

Rust grimaces and pointing at the hatch he says. "trying to settle some accounts outside with his blaster, which I wish I could but won't be for awhile." after saying this rust lets his arm drop and shut down the rest of his systems that are not required to keep him alive.

* Firebox walks over to Rust and takes a seat next to him *
[glow=red,2,300]" Well buddy if this it..Then there's no Wrecker I'd rather die next to..."[/glow]
* Firebox straps in and pulls his Large Blaster out *
[glow=red,2,300]" Hey Rust, you know I can put you out your misery right?"[/glow]
* Firebox gives Rust a friendly nudge *
[glow=red,2,300]" Just kidding pal this is incase any Cons bust in here..I'll protect you till my Spark goes out!, So did you find out anything new about yourself ? "[/glow]

"Allright Hyperion, May primus be with you."
Whirl continued to hold the ship together. He noticed Firebox had come sit down.
"Someone get back in that gun pod, Hyperion is giving us a fighting chance, and i want someone to help him out."

Hyperion found that he couldn't keep up with the Impactor. He was far too damaged and the Impactor was far too fast. He began to fall behind, but at least there were no decepticons trailing him or the ship.

Tactik came running out the small sick bay area where they had a make shift medical room and a small CR chamber, which Tactik had to stick Rock n Roll inside to stop him from leaking to death.
For the first time, Tactik was actually yelling. [glow=brown,2,000]"Whirl! Call Hyperion back in here! I can't believe you bits would let him go out in his condition after that crash he took! He wouldn't know better but the rest of you....?"[/glow] Tactik then stood over another com station and tried to contact the base. [glow=brown,2,000]"Impactor to base. Impactor to base... do you read? Cerebros? Chisel?"[/glow] Tactik got nothing but static. [glow=brown,2,000]"I fear the worst may have happened my fellow Wreckers."[/glow]

After 30 minutes of flying, and Hyperion was already back inside, the Wrecker's flew to there base high above the ruins.
They would usualy take the underground tunnel, however they were unable to get them open as they were powerless and not responding to the remote control opening signal.
As they came in, they saw black smoke pouring out out from where the surface structure of the base should have been. It was completed engulfed in smoke.
Whirl landed the Impactor. Tactik was the first one at the landing ramp.

[glow=brown,2,000]"Spread out, watch for decepticons. Firebox, lets look for survivors."[/glow]
OOC: For any approaching the black smoke, will find that it is coming form a huge hole on the ground, however, so much of the surface and the underground area has fallen in on its self that it is impossible to get down to the base, which we can assume has been crushed.

The two-mech news team came out filming the whole thing. "Oh my Primus! This... this is terrible! The Wreckers home base destroyed!"
"This is the end! (sob!)"

Rust looked at the news crew and shook his head in disgust, before releasing the seats harness and slowly standing up. Looking down on the two bots he says.
"as long as there are wreckers alive it will never be the end."
after saying this rust push's them out of the way and heads down the ramp.

Half staggering out of the Impactor, Hyperion takes one look at the smoking pouring out of the base, at the damaged Impactor and the rest of his barely functioning comrades.
Frak me! Is there any other way that things could be worse? If so I do not want to know. Any sign of the others who were at the base? Are personal transponders working or anything like that? We ought to check for survivors before we get the hell out of dodge.

* Firebox felt like a piece of him had just been stolen from inside his hull, The base in ruins..and Black smoke everywhere..Firebox walks down the ramp and when he gets to ground level he transforms and heads towards the black smoke and finds a crater where the base should be...He begins to douse the smoke with his remaining fire extuinguisher reserve but after a few minutes it is hopeless as he runs out and the black smoke continues, Firebox Transforms into robot mode and with his lights he begins to scan the area and with his speakers he sends out a rescue message *
[glow=red,2,300]" If anyone can hear me, We are Wreckers and are here to help , Cerebros? Chisel?, Anyone are you down there? "[/glow]
* nothing , Firebox tries again *
[glow=red,2,300]" This is Firebox, If anyone is down there, remain calm and do your best to signal us..help will be down shortly!"[/glow]
* nothing , Firebox looks over to Taktic and says..*
[glow=red,2,300]" This place stinks of Decepticon doings!"[/glow]

Rust looked at the hole in the ground that had been their base and felt his anger towards the decepticon rise to new levels, but he forced himself to keep calm, and he slowly walked over to Firebox.
" I'm sure some of them survived Firebox." then with a slight and rare smile he adds. "Especially if I was able to survive not only those zombies but also the attack from L7." after saying this the smile fades from rusts face. "and I'm sure that if anything this will just make us a better and closer knit group then we where before."

* Firebox looks at Rust and says *
[glow=red,2,300]" Judging by the magnitude of this crater and the black smoke that hasn't slowed I'd say chances of survival are slim to none."[/glow]
* Firebox continues to send out rescue messages *
