With his optics flaring, Incognito made a fist and shook with anger but remained calm. 'You touch me again, I swear... I ain't afraid to fight you Hardstrike, but if you think I'm going to let me and the team get killed because of you, think again. Then you would of really killed some Autobots! So, where were we? Yeah, I heard something on the comlink...'
***IC***'Crash and burn. Anyone recieving?'***IC***
***IC***'Incognito! Its Computic, you and Hardstrike ok?'***IC***
***IC***'Sound as a pound. Were in Atlas' main hangout inside his hanger, we see the Nova Red. Whats the plan?'***IC***
Computic, quickly linked the conversation to the rest of the science team inside of Atlas' building and filled in Hardstrike and Computic on the plan to arrest Atlas and what Roadtrain's team was up to. Computic even added in the bit about Incendius being demoted to second in command and his sitaution with Phasmatis.
***IC***'Roger on all counts. When ever you want us to make some noise, let me know. Were equiped to party, over and out.'***IC***
Incognito looked at Hardstrike. 'So what's it going to be? With Incendius in 2nd in command, its you and Roadtrain in charge here. You can't let your buddies down bigbot. You can't let Cryptica down either.' Incognito raised his hand to shake Hardstrike as a sign that all would be forgotten if he accepted his hand.
********
Atlas had lead the group through more sites to see and had been rambling on as he had done early. He then came to another door, this time one on hinges and not the electronic sliding ones. It looked quite eligant and polished. But before he opened them, he recieved a message on his wrist comlink.
'Yes? Of course this is he, speak! What? Communications? I see, well Pointblank should be arriving, if its anything I'm sure its just some disgruntle workers who can't appricate how good they have it here in Omega city. So deal with it and do not bother me unless it's important!'
Atlass put away the comlink and his angry expression, replacing it with an happy one. He placed a hand on the door and turned to his guests. 'Now then, are we ready to solidifiy this deal of ours?'

Deadbolt smiled.
"I was beginning to think you were starting to get cold feet." He chuckled in a playful manner.
+++IC+++ "I don't like the way he switches moods like that. Makes him look like he has multiple personalities or something. At least Roadtrain's group sound like they're making progress." +++IC+++

***IC***'I'm not sure I like the thought of what could be behind that door!***IC*** Computic's nervious began to kick in. This wasn't a sim battle, it was real.

--IC--"Just keep following his lead. He will pick up on your hesitation and it will all be over. We will deal with what ever comes our way. We are Renegades after all, and now my other half isn't our only back up. Hardstrike and Incognito will have our back."--IC--

Deadbolt strode with confidence towards Atlas, turned to his fellow Renegades while still walking backwards.
"Come, my fellow entrepreneurs and sciencebots. This could be what makes our names across the galaxy."
He turned back to Atlas and continued walking.
+++IC+++ "Oh Primus, I felt dirty doing that." +++IC+++

Metalingus was following suit and taking everything including the layout and guards in case they needed to make a quick exit. Metalingus figured he could take Neuroblade or at the very least stall him enough so the others could escape.
##IC## "He seems to have a huge ego. Everything has to go right or his way or as weve seen he quickly becomes angry. Quickshot if were gonna get out of this alive you may have to swallow your pride and don't challenge or frustrate him. If you continue to do so, he might deem you of less value, and you'll get a laser bolt though your optics.
If were gonna get his final plan or why he wants our help we may have to play our part for longer than this mission entails." ##IC##
"I am quite looking forward to this start of a long business endouvour Atlas" he said as he followed Atlas.

Atlas smiled. 'Good. Because now your mine!'
Atlas pulled the doors wide open and jumped away before a massive, three clawed hand, tore through the opening and grabbed the undercover team before they could react.
All five members were held together in a tight grip. Deadbolt, being one of he strongest Renegades, tried to push his way free but couldn't as the claw held him tight against the others.
The claw pulled everyone back through the room it had come out of. The claw was attached to a massive tripod like arm that came out of the wall, with springs all around. The arm retracted it's self in a little as the claw came to a stand still, holding the Renegades in place.
All around the room were OCF troops. Each with there weapons charged up to stun of electrocute the prisoners. Atlas came in to the room laughing. 'I still find it extremely assuming when set my trap, oh the look on your faces!'
***IC***'Everyone stay calm, thats an order! Incognito? Hardstrike? Come in! We've lost communication with them!'***IC*** Said Computic.
Atlas then walked up to the Renegades. 'Now then, this is what is going to happen. The scientists will still be put to use in the labs as we have discussed before. And the rest of you, you shall be contacting your associates and informing them that you shall be staying here. And depositing your companies funds in to my accounts. Then, like how I trick you in to coming to Omega City, you shall insist upon your people to come here as well, with more scientists as well. If not, well we'll see how long your sparks last under torture. Is that understood?'
***IC***'He still thinks were not who we are. Stall him Renegades.***IC*** Computic continued trying to contact the others.
(OOC: All communication frequency's and signal are jammed in this room. Its where Atlas captures his prisoners, so he's made sure no one can call for help or transmit any signal of any kind.)

"Atlas, you're a no good, worthless, dishonest crook. I knew as soon as I laid optics on you that you weren't to be trusted. I just hoped to get some extra credits out of you."
+++IC+++ "Ok team, everyone try pushing at once. On my mark, now!" +++IC+++
With that, Deadbolt pushed with all his phenomenal strength.

As the Renegade struggled, Atlas laughed. 'Oh please! Do you weakling really think you can break free from the claw of a guardian robot? Oh I truly am one for old ancient relics. Marvelous isn't it'
***IC***'I think I can reach my gun and blast him!'***IC*** Said Metalingus.
***IC***'And have his troops blast us when were trapped? No! No one do anything but stall him and record what he says! Thats an order!***IC***
A fancy looking servant droid came out from the side carrying a tray of drinks. Atlas took one before speaking some more. Neuroblade came in to the room after wards and began to eye the trapped Renegades closely.
After a sip Atlas drank some more. 'You shouldn't be so angry, your about to join a great empire. You will all be apart of what I have been working on building. You see, no one can escape. Some have tried, those that get close die. So you may as well accept your fate. You see, very soon everyone on Cybertron will be under my will. While you play for credits and gamble, I make moves that draw everyone in to my den. Everyone is prey, even your kind. See, while I appreciate what the war lords of the past have done in taking control of Cybertron, I do it without the nasty business of war or combat, at least not yet. See, I realize that I do in fact need the help that your kind provides.

Deadbolt continued struggling.
+++IC+++ "Not sure this will help us any, but one of my legs is free. Don't think there is anything I can do, except give Atlas a swift kick in the tailpipe if he comes close enough." +++IC+++
"How exactly do you think we'll help you?"

Quickshot didn't bother struggling he just stared down at Atlas
"The theatrics are quite unnecessary. You've had the upper hand since we got here, all you had to do was ask in the tyrannical tone of yours and hold a sword to our backs, I'd of complied willingly. I figured out the Guardians and that we weren't going to be leaving this place when we made it to the factory. Shall we get to work then?"

Atlas walked in a little closer. As he did Neuroblade pulled out a sword and kept an eye on all the Renegades. Atlas pointed a finger at Quickshot. 'I like how you think your smarter then I since your an intellectual. Its a matter of trust you fool. Do you really think that I would allow you to function freely and expect you to be cooperative when I kept you here against your will? Nonsense! And you off all robots Quickshot, you had a taste of the good life before and you would want it again! You would do anything, anyone of you would do anything to live as rich as your were before. No no, in my world, in my Kingdom, things are done my way. Oh and to think I didn't like you, your quite amusing! Your much like some of the robots I have used before. One comes to mind, yes Crosscut. He was the closest one to escape before I had him killed.'

+++IC+++ "Didn't we get told Crosscut self-destructed? Atlas is so deluded it's laughable." +++IC+++
"Only a complete egomaniac would declare his city as a kingdom. You don't like it when things don't go your way, do you Atlas? It's been a long time since someone had the strength and conviction to say no to you, hasn't it? That blackout we saw earlier, it wasn't just a power failure, was it? At a guess, I'd say the slaves might well be starting a rebellion. Especially after that COMM message you got about communications going down. That sound like a small malfunction to anyone else?"

Quickshot looked around
"I'd never think the sort, but I'm all intellectual, no brawn. As long as I manage to keep myself alive, I'd jump if you said jump. I have no desire for you or your friend there to run me through. Like they say, another word for intellectual is coward."
Quickshot laughed, sounding nervous, or perhaps just normal given his state.
