Finally breaking the harness from its mooring, Spinbreak drops from the straps, grumbles once more, then glares at the glass of the stasis pod, giving it a few hard slaps to see how sturdy it was.
“You going to open for me then, or am I just going to have to blast my way out?” he asks the pod quietly, giving a punch at the glass, half expecting the canopy to open or shatter to his strikes...
There is, I think, humor here which does not translate well from English into sanity.

In regards to passing:
Passing is allowed, (even though two already did without knowing |D) on certain conditions.
Condition one: Your character is in an independent circumstance that doesn't relate much to the plot.
Condition two: You're busy and cannot make your reply.
Condition three: You decide to hiatus from the RP.
Please note that when you pass your turn, other RPers may have to make something up for your character to make their own reply make sense. If you decide to hiatus, please check back from time to time to see where the plot's going, and if you're gone for over two weeks, you will need to re-apply if you wish to continue.
Also, in regards to reply speed:
Sometimes people are busy and won't have time to rapid-fire replies out. I won't single anyone out, but some are being a bit pushy with replies. I will warn you lot now that I have an extremely important CyberARTS assignment, part of which is due Tuesday of next week. This part of the assignment is to be done entirely on our own time, which means I can't be at the computer typing all night, or I won't have a sculpture to contain my pinhole camera and will likely fail the assignment because of it. (this assignment is worth 65% of my final grade and doubles as my exam, so... yeah)
I will do my best to get one reply out each turn, and if need be, I will pass my turn when I can't make it on. Please understand how important this assignment is to me. I will be rid of this part by Tuesday, so after that I will be able to post more frequently.
Thank you for reading~

"Ah've heard o' him, but ah never met 'im," Sentry replied to Lighthammer. " 've also been compared ta a bot called Ih'rnhide." He pulled the shaking medic closer and continued to stroke his back, addressing Sabertooth. "'at might be a good ideah, 'eah. While yer out there, could ya see if Tailwind's anywhere around?" The captain was beginning to worry about the seeker- he'd been gone a while, and the noise coming from inside the crashed ship sounded more like someone struggling in a stasis pod... He and Code Blue would have to go check that out.
"Cody 'n ah're gonna go see what's makin' that noise in thar," he gestured to the darkened door of the ship, which had been blown open rather messily. "'e should be calmer once everythin' settles a bit. Might 'ave a process'r ache too; should be somethin' in whatever's left of the medbay for that."
-------------------------------------------
Code Blue sniffled, nuzzling his helm into the halftrack's chestplate. He did indeed have a rather nasty processor ache from having his coding fight itself. One of his finials flickered when he heard the sound of a fellow Praxian's voice, and he turned his helm to look at Lighthammer. He hadn't noticed before- the doorwings were missing, and any mention of it wouldn't have been heard during his panic attack.
The accent was similar to his own, though Code Blue's was one that sounded slightly Tarnian. ((kinda like a softer Australian accent)) He gave a curious/nervous chirp at the other, amber optics flashing slightly. The medic was well aware that he was being rather quiet- well, quieter than he normally was, anyhow. The situation had him nervous and lost for words, which was why he was silent for now. When everything calmed down, he might be able to speak.
He felt a stirring in his spark; Catalyst was unsettled at his master's upset. The tiger usually stayed hidden, clipped to his back ad a subspace storage unit where he kept his medical supplies, until he was needed. 'Needed' usually meant jumping out to snarl at people and get them to back off when his master was in a panic- actually, had Sentry have not stepped in, he would have done so. Needed could also mean helping to calm Code Blue's anxiety as well, something else Sentry was currently doing. Catalyst had no need to make himself known... yet.

"Ironhide was my weapons instructor before my mate pulled me away from Cybertron at the beginning of the war; and Code Blue if you are wandering I lost my doorwings when taking my Panther Alt Mode." Lighthammer said
Sabertooth cooed and rubbed Lighthammer's back again "Sure we will look for him Sentry; unless Code Blue wants to talk to Lighthammer some more since we haven't had word about from Cybertron in quite some time" she said |

((Ratchy makes Passing sound scary. xD
'M sorry, Ratchet! I was kidding half of the time, but I won't do it anymore.
Anyway, I'm still waiting for the right time, and it fills condition one so there isn't really much Tail can do if he does wake up right now. Except run and scream some more. I mean. Whoop. Nevermind, I just remembered he passed out from exhaustion. |D I might even have to make him go into stasis again oh geez :U Sorry, guys, I'm letting you down. >.<)
EDIT: ((So yeah. PASS.)) |

As Spinbreak gets more and more frustrated at being trapped, he stops hitting the plexi, and locks the blaster over his left arm, then taking aim at the glass, with no room between the barrel and the sheath.
“If this doesn’t blast me out, this is gonna sting a LOT!” he says to himself, starting to wince a little, and hitting the internal rev button on the blaster, beginning the familiar hum of the internal rotator spinning, before hitting the trigger, starting a flurry of shots into the glass, making the stasis chamber he was in explode in a cloud of smoke, debris and stasis gasses from the inside out...

"Re'lly? Huh, whell, app'rently ah sound like 'im." Sentry grinned. He then looked down at the little medic. Code Blue seemed to be calming down, but he wasn't about to mention any repairs to his doorwing just yet. Being in the hands of another medic was one of those things that set his glitch off, and he'd only just settled down. "'e doesn't typic'lly do much talkin'," He explained. "Ah think it'd be best ta just go our sep'rate ways fer now; we c'n regroup here lat'r if ya want."
The medic looked up at him, and nodded his agreement. The two of them then walked off towards the darkened entrance of the ship. Sentry looked over his shoulder at the beast-bots and gave a short wave before leadig the medic inside with him.
----------------------------------------------------
The place was dark- the emergency lights had shut off in the crash, and the only windows were on the deck, which the door to had been forced shut by the impact. The only light other than that coming from the blasted open door was the light from the pair's biolights and optics, and the place darkened as they went through. The darkness was making Code Blue feel uneasy- he didn't fear the dark, but he rather disliked not knowing what could be hiding in the shadows.
The Praxian remained close to the captain as they slowly tracked through the remains of the Explorer Delta, wing-like finials twitching at the slightest noise. His doorwings moved too, and each time they did so he ended in pain. The movement was an automatic thing he never consciously thought about, so it was difficult to stop it from happening.
Suddenly, a loud crash sounded, presumably from the room where their stasis-locked crewmates were located. Code Blue jumped several feet in the air and clung to Sentry's torso as the noise startled him badly. The captain had been startled as well, but simply patted Cody in between the doorwings and set him back on the ground, much to the medic's protest. The two said nothing between them, but Code Blue understood the look on Sentry's face- they needed to investigate that crash.
The captain took off in a sprint for the stasis-room, and the Praxian bolted after him obediently. Someone in there could be hurt, after all. He may be needed.

Sabertooth also heard the crash but didn't think anything of it as she transformed and headed into the woods to scare away the wild bots who wanted to attack the crew of the Explorer Delta.
The main ones that they chased off was a Pack of Bots turned Cyber Wolves; Lighthammer attacked the Alpha and dominated her running the pack off |

As the smoke clears around Spinbreak, he opens an optic slowly, and gives a small chuckle at the blasted out canopy, unworried that he almost blew his arm off. He flicks the blaster back into standby position, hops from the stasis unit finally, and walks to the nearest door, into the rest of the ship.
As he steps through the door, he sees two more robots heading towards him in a dead sprint, which gives him an amusing idea.
"Y'know, if you want to use the little bots room, you might want to give it a minute." he chuckles loudly, attempting to waft the smoke appearing behind him away for extra effect...

((Hey Alpha, would you mind having Sabertooth and Lighthammer find Tailwind this turn? Dark's not doing much in the RP right now because she's waiting for Tailwind to be found by someone and it'd be nice to have her reply this time around. |D
also, gonna bold OOC stuff from now on. No one else *has* to, but it's easier to distinguish~))
Code Blue was much faster than Sentry. As such, he reached the source of the noise first. When he saw a strange bot slowly walking out of the stasis-room though, he tried to skid to a halt. Much to his dismay, he ended up leaned back against the wheels at the backs of his legs, which merely increased his speed, sending him into a full-on collision with the bot. The two tumbled backward in a tangle of limbs and startled noises before they crashed into a wall. Somehow, Code Blue ended up pinned under the other bot.
Struggling frantically and making repetitive yelping sounds each time his wing was scraped on the floor, he attempted to free himself from underneath the stranger. Sadly, there was no hope for that unless the bot actually got up off of him, as he was larger than the Praxian.
------------------------
Sentry, running slower than Code Blue, rounded the corner to the hallway just in time to see the medic collide head on with another bot, who presumably had come from the stasis-room. He skidded to a halt, staring blankly at the amusing scene before him and trying to contain a giggle. His amusement died down when he saw the medic begin to panic, clearly disliking being pinned underneath their crewmate.
The halftrack walked over to the two, ready to pull the other mech off if need be.

Lighthammer skidded to a stop when he saw a mech Lion-former stalking towards the passed out Tailwind though he didn't know that was who it was. Lighthammer ran towards the Lion-former and tackled him away from the downed mech and began using his back claws to tear into the Lion-former's belly. Once the Lion was taken care of he ran back over to the bot and started to gently shake him awake "Hey wake up it isn't wise to sleep out where predators can easily get you" he said

"Get him to wake up. And make sure he forgets."
Tailwind's eyes snapped open, and unfortunately training took over in a not-so-peaceful way. Before his processor could even come to terms with what was happening, he was moving.
His arm whipped up and caught the poor beast-former on the chin with a crack, his servo taking hold of the other's arm as he swung himself up, effectively twisting the black-and-silver bot's appendage behind his back, before aiming a decisive kick at the back of his knees, bringing him to the ground.
Tailwind finally realized what was happening, and he dropped the other bot like he was burning.
"I-Primus, that was- I had-" The usually quick-witted bot was at a complete loss for words, unable to voice his apology. He wasn't even sure what happened- he passed out mid-flight, and then suddenly his CPU told him he was under attack, and he acted without thinking. And the other bot wasn't even hurting him!
The world suddenly started spinning, and Tailwind felt his entire structure go limp, his knees buckling. He had spent the entire time flying nonstop and with a gaping wound, and his sudden awakening took its toll on the flier's frame.
When Tailwind crashed, he crashed hard.
((knee-jerk reaction much.
omg so sorry guys. Tailwind seriously decided to go to sleep again. 8C I swear he'll wake up by my post... Hopefully when they get back to the ship? D8))

Spinbreak blinks his optics a few times in shock as he realises that one of the transformers that he had spoken to several seconds ago was now on under him, having knocked him off his feet. After working out which way was up finally, he gains some footing by standing on the body of the one under him, putting most of his weight on the shoulders. A moment later he glares at the face of the robot still on his feet, and crosses his arms, in a weird attempt to make himself look bigger.
"Is anyone going to explain why the heck we have crash landed, before I have to have a pay raise for getting us off this rock?" he asks standoffishly, reacting to the undulating body with a stamp on the lower back...

Code Blue winced and squirmed as he was stood on, the mech's peds dangerously close to his damaged wing. He continued his struggle, making muffled sounds of frustration that clearly stated he wanted out from under the bot above him. He also felt Catalyst's irritation at being stood on as well, as the storage contained on the medic's back was located between his doorwings where their crewmate's peds were. He could hear the minicon growling too.
Ceasing the struggling but still continuing to squirm a little, he asked,"W-would you please get off? You're h-hurting me..." The Praxian's voice was a small, nervous one. He didn't typically do much talking, but this situation required it. He waited for a response, slightly twisting his neck around to look up at the bot standing on him.
----------------------------------
Sentry was just about to demand this stranger get the frag off the ship's CMO when he finally recognized the bot. That was Spinbreak, the former Autobot who had been hired as a guard to help protect the neutral ship. The captain really didn't understand why- he on his own was well-equipped to do so already; his tall, muscular build and artillery vehicle alt mode gave him an advantage over dangerous criminals back on Cybertron. Malicious intruders would be no different.
He opened his mouth to explain the crash and (more politely than he intended before) ask if Spinbreak would get off of Code Blue, when the gun-for-hire decided to punctuate his frustration with a hard stamp to the medic's back. The poor Praxian gave a loud shriek of pain as it worsened the damage done to his doorwing, which set the halftrack back in his angry disposition.
"Ey! It was an ast'roid. No one coulda seen it comin' cause we w're all in stasis." He said, narrowing his optics and stepping forward offensively. "Nahow, ya're gonna get the frag off of the ship's CMO before I have ta make ya," He stopped, nearly forehelm to forehelm with the former Autobot. "'n don't think ah won't." |

It seems I have forgotten an important aspect of the bio. Would everyone please go add a Height: category underneath appearance and fill it out using feet as the measurement? |D Thank you~ |

Lighthammer's world was suddenly sent spinning as the bot jerked awake and pinned him; then let him go and after stumbling over his words collapsed. Lighthammer sighed and got to his pedes; he turned to look at the bot and saw the wound. His irritation must have alerted Sabertooth cause she came barreling into the clearing her claws out; she skidded to a stop when she smelt the energon and soon transformed and got to work sealing up the wound. She saw the unconscious Lion-Former and asked "You just had to attack Leo didn't you Lighthammer?" "Hey he was stalking this bot here like he was his next meal" Lighthammer said Sabertooth sighed and after stabilizing Tailwind she picked him up and they headed back to the Explorer Delta; she laid him down on a cot that Lighthammer pulled from sub-space then called into the ship "Sentry we found Tailwind" since she didn't have Sentry's com frequency |

((Oh shiz, Ratch, I was just going to ask you how tall you thought Tail was. ;w; Will edit with post later))
EDIT: ((And Tail is still out for the count. No dreams though))
Tailwind woke up- or more likely, gained slight consciousness- a couple of times on the way back. Every once in a while, a ping sounded through his CPU. Slightly delirious, he'd mumble something that sounded vaguely like a greeting to the ping, before falling back into the black depths of unconsciousness. The first time when he awoke via ping, he felt he was being carried, except everything felt completely distant and out-of-structure. Then a couple times later when he awoke, he had mumbled a salutation to the ping, and heard something that sounded like "Sentry", before the world faded out again.
At one point he'd mused he must have caught something on his wild flight. He remembered he was running away from something, but he couldn't remember what it was. Tailwind knew he should be more worried about something important like that, but he'd just let recharge take him. Even though the Ping kept on waking him, he still felt like it was the best recharge he'd had in vorns. Even the stasis couldn't compare. He wasn't sure what the difference was, though, but he wasn't going to try to be awake enough to find out.
Tailwind would take this recharge chance while he still could.
Ping! "Hello, Ping."
He went back into recharge.

As the robot below him shrieked in pain, Spinbreak glared harder at the larger bot, moving his foot slightly to relieve the smaller ones obvious pain. But he kept his eyes firmly square and unflinching despite his moment of kindness.
“You… You CRASHED us… Into an ASTEROID?! And you were in STASIS?!” he says loudly in mock indignation to the larger robot, uncrossing his arms to retain balance and faceplatepalm for a moment, still glaring through his fingers.
“This was a simple relocation and protect job they said… That the Captain wouldn’t make any glitches on the way they said…” he hisses quietly as he removes his hand from his face, and straightens his arm forwards, in a further attempt to stay stable, while at the same time pointing it directly at the larger robots chestplate
Suddenly, the bigger robots comm crackled to life with a message "Sentry, we found Tailwind" and Spinbreak dropped his arm slightly, as if the thought of hurting someone else that was doing his job was disrespectful.
"Sentry I take it... Heh... Better get that. Sounds like its important." he adds, before growling "Then get back to me, when you grow bigger bearings." looking left and right for a place to land safely off his perch...
