Immediately, once Hardhead saw the pools of blood on the floor he rushed out of the door with his gun in hand. He stopped and looked around with eagerness, scanning the faces for any sign of where Wheeljack went, and looking for any clue at all. Out of the corner of his optics was a small drop of energon. Hardhead bolted in the path of the energon trail, bumping and pushing past other innocent bots along the way. While running, he tapped the side of his head to open his built in communicator. "All Autobots, I am pursuit of the suspect. His energon trail leads to-". Hardhead stopped and spun around with a puzzled look. The trail had stopped suddenly. "He's gone, the trails gone cold." Doubledealer was still perched on his hiding spot while listening in on the Autobots inner comms channel. It was chaotic, and whatever happened had gotten the attention of his attacker too. The fact that Star Saber was still kicking around gave him an idea. But first, he had to find out what was at the coordinates that he had received. And while he was at it, figure out what all the commotion is about. Prowl just noticed Dia Atlas and Ironhide II when his comm system when haywire. Something about Wheeljack killing three medics and getting away. He Looked up with bright optics and ran back out the door. On his way out he shouted for Ironhide II, "Get Dia Atlas somewhere safe, there had been a... situation."
Bumblebee arrives outside the building and transforms into his robot mode. In shock and awe, he looked at the Energon trail. Then, he looked at Hardhead. "What happened here?!"
"All I know, Wheeljack came into the med bay in near stasis lock, wakes up and kills three medics, then runs off." Hardhead looked at the frozen little Autobot. "I'm as confused as you are. Prime and the others are in the med bay, go talk to them. Make sense of this disaster." Prowl then arrived at the scene with his gun in his hand, even though the situation has been neutralized. He walked into the med bay where Optimus, Jazz, and Star saber were looking at the bodies and discussing. "Prime, before we do anything rash, may I suggest an emergency meeting with all of Autobot high command to asses the situation and plan our next move? Meanwhile, keep all security on high alert and routine patrol routes." Prowl said all of this without even the acknowledgment of Star saber.
Star Saber didn't even care Prowl refused to acknowledge him, as he had more pressing issues on his processor, like the fact that the deceased medics were missing their sparks. "If I may..." He began. "...I think it should be noted the deceased have their Spark chambers almost ripped open." Star Saber hoped that Prime and Jazz would take notice of this, as it wasn't normal for spark chambers to be ripped open like that. He knelt next to the closest body and peered at it again, but as before, refused to touch the body.
Prowl looked over to Star Saber when he began to speak, the room went quiet with the grim and sudden words coming from Star Saber's vocal processor. Prowl decided to break the silence. "Star Saber, I know you may have some concerns for these medics, but I dont see any reason or authority for you to-". Prowl was cut off by Prime before he could finish.
Bumblebee rushed into the med bay soon after Prowl arrived. He met with others and looked upon the corpses, but didn't seem to flinch back in horror. He asked Optimus, "How did this happen? Hardhead told me what happened but... why would Wheeljack do such a thing?" Spoiler Vertebreak, in his laboratory, spoke through Makeshift's comm of what else was needed.
"Uh... Okay?!" Ironhide II was confused but he followed these orders. "C'mon sir, we have to move!" (( @Dropkick you could play as Dai Atlas if you want. )) "What's going on here?" Jazz asked, preparing his rifle for anything "Prowl, don't tell me it was your doing."
"Jazz, i'm just as concerned as you are. Which is why we need to call for an assembly. Does this really smell like an Autobot attack to you, or something else?"
Meanwhile, not far from Kaon ... In the depths of the mine one of the bandits carried a container with energon cubes in the direction of the vault while their leader was busy telling the future plans to his subordinates, of whom there were seven. "Alright, boys, today we'll be able to sell this energon, if our client will not forget to bring the money he promised." "Uh ... boss? Are you really sure that we weren't fooled?" one of his subordinates named Slopster asked him. "Don't be ridiculous, Slopster! It was our client, who told us where this mine is located! Why would he want to fool us, you idiot?" "Well, he was very stran-" he didn't finish the sentence, as he was shot in the head and the light turned off, leaving them covered in darkness....Buzzsaw took advantage of the darkness in the mine and started the game. First he silently sat on the bandit's shoulder with container and shot off his head, which drew the attention of other members of the gang and they opened fire on him. A couple of shots hit the wall beside him, and one of them hit Buzzsaw, which pissed him off and slowed down the Mini-Cassette spy, forcing him to hide in one of the minecarts..
Dropkick arrived at Megatron's location, slightly panicking. He told Megatron of the murder of the 3 medics and the hunt for the perpetrator(s). "Lord Megatron, after Makeshift was slightly repaired, he murdered the medics in the room." He tried not to smile at the horrific scene in his head, but still showed a brief smirk. He continued, "Now, he's somewhere in the city. Only Primus knows where he went."
"Ah ha ha.... This is going perfectly.... Just go along with it Dropkick!" Megatron contacted Vertebreak via old Comms. "So... How are things my old comrade?"
Dropkick calmed down, though deep down, he knew that his idol was in danger. Somehow, Vertebreak's old communications happened to work. He slithered to the communications machine. His maniacal voice spoke through the comm. "Megatron? Is that you? You are... living?"
"Yes I live, what makes you think I wasn't living? Anyways, what exactly are you doing at the current moment? I am at a crime scene that looks like something you or your colleague would've done. I'm just curious.
Vertebreak wrapped himself around his machine and answered Megatron. "Me and a certain 'bot my the name of Makeshift have made a deal: he gives me the intel and the supplies I need."
Megatron chuckled a little. "Ah, so Makeshift's alive also. Excellent." Megatron started running through many of his calculations.
Star Saber sighed as no one had seemed to hear him save for Prowl. He got up and made his way to the doors, prepared to leave since no one would listen to his observation, as it was just that, an observation. But something kept him rooted to the spot, and he didn't know what it was. So, he leaned back against the wall instead, staying near the doors but not leaving. His one blue optic, and one gold optic, looked over the scene, but even still, it didn't make it better the second time around.
He slithered around his device as his maniacal voice filled the comms. "As far as I know, my little agent is disguised as Bumblebee, one of the 'bots involved in my capture." His pincher-like, middle hand made a clinging sound as he pinched down out of anger.
Dealer walked by the Cybertronian Regional Command Building slowly, assessing the panic and chaos in the building and out of it. Something... interesting had happened, but unfortunately dealer had more important things to deal with. He re-checked the coordinates and realized he was already there. Looking up and around him, he wondered why Megatron would want him here. Dealers job was more of causing chaos, not dealing with it.
