".... completely destroyed and sabotaged"
Inside the war room of the Renegade base, a recorded message from the deceased autobot known as Highway, friend and supporter of the renegades, recounts what he discovered on his own as he investigated the autobot defense stations just hours after the first destructicon invasion.
"Akatron you recording this? Every panel; every consoul and every terminal has been made useless by someone... I don't know how they did it, the security cams were on and perimaters on alert... lets go to the next complex..."
Static.
"I don't care what the Emirate think or if he doesn't approve us out here! I'm trying to figure out why there was no warning or report of an attack with or early warning systems in place..."
Static
"Look. You geting that......."
"But the look of it, I'd say the power supply to the Omega Sentinels wasn't cut off but set in reverse. This entire squad was drained of energy, it wouldn't have mattered if there independent programing came on, they had no power...."
The next images seen were records and files.
"This is Highway, second in command of the autobot forces. This recording contain materail and evident that someone sabotaged autobot defensive before the destructicons invaded Cybertron. We have taken and download thousands of data feeds on to this disk you, who ever you are, have before you. The reason were so secretive is because our Emirate refuses to believe we have a traitor in our mist. Please, whatever you do, don't let this disk fall in to the wrong hands. Destructicon or Vector Primus.
"Kill the feed. Kill the feed and lets get out of here before more lion drones show up......"
Max Convoy had watched the entire recording in the darkness of the room. He sat at his war table, his elbows on the table and his hands together just infront of his face. Without moving he spoke to everyone in the room.[glow=grey,2,000]"There you have it. The reason why the autobots failed to protect Cybertron, and the reason they.... held back. We have a disk here that still contains hundreds of encoded files that we still need to crack. Even when we do that, we still have a planet divided to convince."[/glow]

Else where....
Latyrx7 was in the med lab. He had fixed up all those who he could help, the CR Chambers did the rest to heal the wounds suffered cycles before in New Iacon. Wounds delivered by a squad of super powered Destructicons.
The same battle where L7 lost Hoist, Heavy Assault and Shadow Stalker. Some of his closest friends. He had placed what was left of them in a special containment unit where they would be sealed off and kept safe.
The last few weeks were sureal to him; the renegades were falling apart before his optics. Another one of his friends, Moprher was MIA, persumed dead. And the team that went looking for him had not reported in and was over due.
Banshee and Wrecktron had taken off to fight the war there way, on there terms. Jazzmatic was dead, but even worse he had been turned into that seeker Scarrunner, an old enemy of the renegades like Rainstorm. Which both of them had now returned.
L7 was running out of options to help keep his team and family together. [glow=blue,2,000]"Till all are renegades just doesn't seem to cut it anymore my friends...."[/glow]

Sealed and confined to his quarters, Maverick walked up and down in a nervious strut. He knew he had screwed up badly, he knew he was introuble and that in a way he had the death's of some renegades on his hands.
He knew he was in alot of trouble and that L7 wouldn't be able to help him.
He knew it when for the first time he met Max Convoy. He had never met the renegade commander, he was dead after all. But when Maverick was repaired in the med center, Max came down on him hard.
And no one bothered to help the young renegade, they let him recieve what was given to him. Even he knew he deserved it.
But now he waited for someone to come. But who would it be? L7? Venator? Max Convoy?

Snap lay in the CR pool, it was hard to find these things these days. Most had been dismantled during the re-upsizing but thankfully a few were operational. Otherwise it'd be a painful process of organic skin grafting and such like. Heck even with Hoist's knowledge...
Snap cut his thoughts off... Hoist was gone for good. HE had always respected the stuffy veteran even if he there was sometimes a personality clash. Snap had to respect the sacrifice he made though, many other bots would have flatered.

Obsidian was still held in the prison area. He still used a fractured and shattered body, and all kinds of wiring protruded from his chest and was hooked up to several machines. "I wonder...." he said aloud, knowing nobody was around to hear him, "Are the Renegades doomed to extinction...?" He shook his head. "No.....impossible." he continued. "At the current rate of things, I'd say the Autobots have a better chance of completely disbanding.......something they should've done when Vector Primus became their leader......." He continued to brood like this for a while...........

[glow=white,2,300]A tall white Renegade officer entered the doorway of the med bay...*
Latyrx... I've just got back from another mission... Is it true? Is it true what i heard about Hoist?....
*The compassion in his voice was evident, he as well had know the green maintenence bot for an extremly long time..
Whilst on various missions he had kept up on the news,from Max Convoy returning to, aaArmada and the super-powered destructicons, and to All the politcal side with the Autobots and Vector Primus, the latter being something that he had heavily been interested in, having a passion for Cybertronian political aspects..[/glow]

[glow=blue,2,000]"Indelible! Primus be praised, its good to see you."[/glow] L7 walked up to greet Indelible. They had served together for a long time and were air companions. L7 was only too happy to have an old friend back as well as new forces for the fight.
[glow=blue,2,000]"I'm afraid so Indelible. Hoist is gone... he tried to stop a ship from crashing in Iacon during a battle with the destructicons."[/glow]

[glow=white,2,300] "SLAG IT!!!"
*Iceblade punched down hard on the top of a CR chamber before nervoulsy moving his hand away, realising what he'd done*
"I wish I'd been here... There's also an unsubstantioal rumour going round that Max Convoy has given back the Matrix?...
I hope not, with that and the destructicons semmingly "super-powers, it makes you wonder if there's anything left.."[/glow]

[glow=blue,2,300]Sharpshot stood with Sniper in his hands, he didn't like it, but with all the deaths his responsibility had risen greatly. He was no leader, but L7 was no longer the same person. And Max Convoy didn't seem to want them to know anything. Sharpshot sighed and put Sniper away, and went to Maverick's door, he knocked twice hoping the young Gade would answer, he knew now was the time to band together.[/glow]

Raising his hand, Venator waits for Convoy to notice him, rising to his feet when the General does so.
For the first time that any present can remember, Venator has a worried look on his face, indicative of a struggle going on within him. After a few seconds, Venator decides he will speak after all.
[glow=teal,2,300]I must emphasise the extremely personal nature of what I am about to say, and would ask that it not be general knowledge.[/glow]
Looking around, Venator notes the nods of a$$ent from the a$$embled Renegades.
[glow=teal,2,300]Several million cycles ago I was a senior officer in the Autobot aerial reconnaisance corps. After Optimus Prime left Cybertron, I was engaged on a routine mission to gather intel on a Decepticon base. Five of us flew in stealth to the base. Only I returned. Aer.. - the... others were shot down [/glow]
At this point, a look of pure anguish creases Venator's features. Only with a supreme effort of will does he keep a semblance of order
[glow=red,2,300]The Con's knew we were coming. Someone in the Decagon told them we were coming and ensured that we were silenced. Why, I don't know. Since then, I've noted many instances of lapses in Autobot defences. This may be a tenuous leap, but I am convinced that whoever betrayed me is still in the Autobot echelons. I had a conversation with Vice 3 in which I offered him the names of three Destructicon spies in Iacon - he wasn't in the slightest bit interested. Vice 3 wasn't around when I was betrayed, but someone could be sabotaging Autobot drones to make them uninterested in finding traitors.[/glow]
Looking at the incredulous looks on several faces, Venator looks down, realising how paranoid his comments must have seemed. In an embarressed manner, Venator moves his chair back and makes to leave.
[glow=teal,2,300]Excuse me sentients. That last comment was pure conjecture. Please accept my apologies. I will go to my quarters. Sorry![/glow]

[glow=grey,2,000]"Hold Venator."[/glow] Max stood with a raised hand to halt the renegade before he left.
[glow=grey,2,000]"The fact is, many autobots have turn to the side of the enemy and betrayed Cybertron. Many on the old council would have never wanted Cybertron to know that thre were spies among their ranks and inside their own establishments. I believe then problem is true. Form your experience and this recording from Highway.
"This is most grim. For we now have two fronts to fight a war. On the front lines and a war within. Our next course of action is to find this leak. And I'm not above revenge Venator. We'll find out who betrayed you, Highway and every single Cybertronian on this planet."[/glow]

Maverick heard knocking at his door. [glow=red,2,000]"Hey... who's that?"[/glow] [glow=yellow,2,000]"Maverick its Sharpshot."[/glow] [glow=red,2,000]"At least I haven't been completely deserted. Hey buddy, I can't leave this room. I'm sealed in tight until they figure out what to do with me. But unless you can spring me for a second... Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere."[/glow]

L7 explained. [glow=blue,2,000]"Yes, I can see why that would seem like the craziest thing to do however, I looked over the research that Hoist did on Max's new body.
"Max claimed that he was no longer able to use the Matrix for any reason what so ever, and trust me I can tell that he's no exactly Prime material any more.
"But what was found were different readings then recorded scans of past autobot leaders like Optimus and Rodimus. His scans read normal, like he just had the thing in his chest to carry it and thats all.
"But he did infact give the Matrix away. I was hoping that we could use it to resurect our dead. But Max claims it can do no good for us." [/glow]

A clank noise sounded, followed by a loud thump. Obsidian had made his way toward where the other renegades were, all sorts of snapped wires protruding from his open chest, using the wall to keep from falling over. "We have to......stop Vector Primus....." he began. "He will lead us all......to our deaths......that must never happen......" There was a grim look on his face. "For all it's worth...." he continued, "Let me fight........help the Renegades........save Cybertron from.....it's demise......." He now awaited a response......any response.........
