Tyrannodon Clutch and Darkstorm had passed through Altihex with little trouble, and onto The Tagon Heights, an Industrial part of Cybertron in the east Quadrant, once home to the solar power stations which were now empty shells.
To their left via a small bridge lay Nova Cronum, from both their and the Tagon Heights small bridges lent themselves across to Hydrax Plateau, the source of the mysterious energy problem. The island itself was encased in a huge energy dome with a tunnel of energy inside the domes center to it's ark at the top, occasionally you could hear the crackle as the field slowly enveloped over the Rust Seas.
Tryannodon flew on a head to a small domed building, the smallerofthe two, each the same shape and awaited the others...

Clutch and DarkStorm found a spot to set up the equipment.
"Clutch, reassemble the energy absorption device." DarkStorm said.
"Got it." Clutch replied. He started reassembling the device.
"Lord Tyrannodon, shall we get started?" asked DarkStorm.

"Not yet DarkStorm, we must use the lift in this building to travel to the small chasm below, only then shall we be close enough to get a reading, yet further enough awa not to be affected. Follow me.."
The Decepticon leader turned sharply on his heel and entered the black chasm of the high arced door disappearing from sight..

"Roger that," DarkStorm said. Clutch and Darkstorm followed Tyrannodon.

Inside the building they took stair down to the next level, of which was a series of narrow walkways around the edge of the building with just a large empty vacuum of a chasm in the middle, repeated each level down. As they rounded two corners they stood on a very shiner flat piece of metal flooring which instantly recognised the weight of the transformers and began descending them down the chasm like a huge elevator 4-5 floor down..

Clutch and Darkstorm set up the equipment to study the energy field. Darkstorm monitored the energy readouts on the energy absorption device (EAD).
"Everything seems to be working," Darkstorm said.
Darkstorm began moving the device closer and closer to the energy field. With each step he took the device beeped faster and louder. The beeping became a solid ring, indicating that the device was at its max. Darkstorm stopped.
"Clutch, can you give me hand?" Darkstorm asked. "That's why I'm here," Clutch replied.
Clutch moved to the EAD right next to Darkstorm. Darkstorm handed Clutch a small device.
"Okay, take that and stand back. I'm going to hit this button and the device will pull a small sample of the energy in so we can get detailed information," Darkstorm explained. "Got it," Clutch replied as he moved back. "Here it goes," said Darkstorm.
Darkstorm hit the button and immediately a shock was sent to the device in Clutch's hand. Clutch dropped it upon receiving a small portion of the shock. The device sat on the ground sparking.
"Crap!" Clutch shouted. "Don't worry about it," Darkstorm said as he picked up the device, "We got the information."
Darkstorm slid a panel off of the device and pulled out a small black box. He held the box and a wire came out from his wrist and plugged into the box. The data downloaded to his system and he streamed it to Clutch and Tyrannodon.
"This is amazing. That small shock was one millionth of the power of the field and the energy is almost off of the charts!" Darkstorm said. "I can't imagine what the source of this power is."

"Just be careful not to drop it again! If it comes out that container, even a small sample could damage us irreparably!",mused the Decepticon commander.
Lord Tyrannodon passed his fellow Decepticons and stood right on the edge of the ground overlooking the Rust Sea, any other leader might trust his men, so easily he could be pushed in.. But not only did he trust them he did so enough to have his back to them as well. He stood there pondering for a moment about the energy field.
"The center of the energy, comes from that spiral shoot in the central diameter of the dome, if only we could get close enough..", muttered Tyrannodon, "If the energy is coming from the ground up, we need to see where it's coming from, even if that means going underground towards the epi-centre..."
Just then another quake pitched up from nowhere as Tyrannodon staggered back and began to topple, between the two Decepticons the box with the energy began to shake...

As the ground shook, Clutch lowered himself, keeping his feet planted and remaining still as the quake persisted. Darkstorm stumbled, then dove and rolled to the EAD (Energy Absorption Device). He grabbed it and moved it toward the shaking device on the ground. Darkstorm quickly and sharply hit a button on the EAD. The box settled. Clutch reached out and grabbed Tyrannodon's arm in an attempt to steady him.
"Sir, are you alright?" Clutch asked.

Tyrannodon looked down with a slight look of something he'd just stepped on, at the hand on his arm. "Of course I'm alright!", snarled the commander as he stepped back from the edge

Lord Tyrannodon walked back towards the building, nodding to Darkstorm and Clutch as he turned. "Come, gather your things, we're heading into the very heart of Cybertron!", he said as he continued towards the building.

"Yes Sir!" Clutch and Darkstorm said in unison. They packed up and followed Tyrannodon.

The Decepticons, followed Tyrannodon into the building and used the various lifts and tubes that were still working, down towards the heart of Cybertron. Each time in the distance they could see the funnel of energy breaking up through the ground and up into the ceiling levels of each stage of the underground of Cybertron.
35 levels down..
"Amazing", exclaimed Lord Tyrnannodon as they arrived on the next level. seeing the funnel of energy still tunneling up, "har far down does this go?", he pondered. "Clutch, Darkstorm, take another reading! I want to see if the energy readoing is as powerful down here as it is topside!!!"

Darkstorm accessed the data from the first reading and used it to model a more efficient energy reading method. He scanned the field and and compared the data.
"I'm detecting no immediate difference. Unfortunately, I can't detect beyond the shell of the field. I don't know how thick the field is."
Darkstorm shook his head.
"I don't know how we'll be able to get through it, sir."

Central arrived topside on the outskirts of the Tagon Heights driving up and stopping on the edge cliff that jutted out onto the Rust seas. Just below was another storey to where the bot was, though could only be accessed by going into a nearby building and taking the lift down.
Across the Rust Seas the Energy field was still continuing to grow and now enveloped the rust seas, just starting to border onto the fringe coast of the Tagon Heights... The massive dome of energy also spread far back from the other side of the Rust seas where it originated, now spreading across the shore of Tyrest. Still the funnel shaped spiraled up from the ground to the top of the energy dome...

OOC: If you don't login and post this week Central, your character gets vapourised.
Central took a spectral and tropi-graphical reading of the area, the energy field was certainly getting more widespread and come alot more insure as it crept over the edge of the precipice where Lord Tyrannodon, Clutch and Darkstorm has stood earlier. As Central scanned she began to pick up another energy source..
That of a Decepticon energy signature!
Carefully she laid the scanner to the ground and followed the patter, it led back, right back to the building where they must have gone. But if she went after them, eventually the energy field would get them too, but surely she had to find out what they were up to? Omega Convoy had said to meet them at the temple, and he hadn't got back to her in a long time..
Central packed her scanner away and headed towards the building, sometimes a bot's got to do what a bot's got to do!
