(Transformers) Soundwave's secret

Chapter 12

Hi everyone, this chapter took me much longer than I thought...

IMPORTANT !: in the last chapter I made a mistake discribing Ratchat: I said that he had had a grumpy personality. Then one of the adders asked me about it and discribed that this word means cowardly... (English is not my mother tongue...)

I meant that Ratchet was grounchy not a coward!...

Thakns for understanding;))

Several megacycles had passed, and the team of simbiots was through the ravine still making their way to the secret shelter. Frenzy and Rumble were on their flying boards hovering right and left a bit over the sandy ground. These were a gift from Soundwave and compensated twins' lack of transforming ability. As soon as the group had met outside of Koan, young bots disconnected the boards from their metal sacks, transformed them and jumped on, so that not getting any difficulties in catching up with the flyers and Ravage, who, on the other servo, never had a problem with accelerating. And now, when they all got far enough, there, finally, was no need for speeding, so the group was slowly getting closer to the shelter.

"So... How long is till this secret place of yours?" Rumble asked as Ratbat dived down in the air, flew to blue armored bot's side and landed on his shoulder.

"Yes, I'm so tired! We've been flying fo' megacycles!"

"Patience. Fact: we are close."

"Ravage, what does it even look like? I suppose it's somewhere in the rocks." Rumble flew his board closer.

"Affirmative. Soundwave has situated the shelter in the cave."

"A cave?! Sounds cool!" the femmling cheered.

"Aspecially for you, sis." Frenzy winked at the little bat, who playfully rolled her optics in response.

"Sounds baldly." Rumble disagreed as Ratbat flew to Frenzy and landed on his shoulder plate both of them giving blue armored youngling a reproaching look.

"What? Think about it! No computers, no technique, no 'Cons you can make a prank on. Hey, up there! Beak, looks like we'll have to play on your nerves now!" he looked up at two condors hovering over them, as the older one irrelatively rolling his optics at youngling's comment. Buzsaw with a smile eyed the four and flew closer to his twin. "Don't you already wish we could leave him at the base, Laser?"

"Dealing with bored twins... Do not even remind, brother." he signed making Buzsaw giggle at his expression. He then flew higher and noticed that they reached the exit of the ravine. Two condors flew out, and now under them was a deserted filled from three sides surrounded by high rocks of the canyon and several entrances to other ravines, while at right there was a cliff from, which the one could get a perfect view of the territory situated lower.

As the youngling jumped of their boards and stopped scanning the unusual landscape, Ravage turned right and made his way to some kind of a road by the rock's side, which was leading somewhere upper. The twins exchanged looks and followed, condors flying over them. As they reached the end of the road, they found their selves by the entrance of a small cave.

The panther went inside and stopped by some kind of a computer between the rocks. He pressed several bottoms, and the next moment the cave was illuminated, as the sound of activated mechanisms of different kind was also heard.

"Fact: not everything that was required was settled. Still, Soundwave added some programming. Life signals: cannot be detected. Territory of the field: safe."

"Of course, if we are not seen on this field. My recommendation is not to leave the cave unless it is necessary. Here we will be neither seen, neither detected."
