Ratchet looked up from his console; a dark, desolate air hung over the old base, affecting everyone and everything within it's tight grasp.
"How is she?" He asked.
Artorias answered, with a grim expression on his faceplate "Not good." Crosshairs entered the room.
"Can't we just steal tha' Matrix an' lock 'er up in the cave? Or can we cut 'er up?--" Crosshairs started. Artorias quicker than lightning unshealthed his greatsword; the tip of the blue blade cut into his vocalizer. The others didn't do anything, as if they wanted Crosshairs to get his a-s-s whooped.
"Say that again you piece of scrap! Your tongue is so sharp, I am surprised that it doesn't cut through your mouth!" Artorias shouted, forcing his rusty, blue blade deeper into the foolish mechs throat; Crosshairs began to make gagging noises, unable to reach his guns, he tried to shove Artorias off.
A shout came from below "Artorias stop it!" The giant Autobot looked down to see Dusk, and he quickly released Crosshairs and shealthed his sword.
"You.... 'ah.... bit....." Crosshairs gasped, he coughed up thick, blue energon; he fumbled for his guns hastly. Dusk put her hands on her hips as Knockout held the green Autobot down.
"Easy, Crosshairs! I can fix this!" He reassured, surprisingly he did settle down.
Ironhide grumbled "That was intense."
Brains chimmed in "That's what she said!" The little Autobot evaded Ironhide's foot by sprinting under Ratchet's console; the weapons specialist looked to where Brains disappeared. Bumblebee gave a nervous laugh, he then turned back his attention to Dusk and Artorias.
"What the hell are you doing?!?" Shouted Dusk" Why did you hurt Crosshairs? True, his tongue is sharp, but that doesn't give you the right to hurt, maybe kill him." Artorias knelt down, hot anger still radiated from his green optics.
He apologized "I am sorry, Prime. I shouldn't have let my anger control my actions." He stood, and swiftly walked out the main room, leaving the confused Dusk behind.
"Artorias! Where are you going?"
"Artorias!"
