Chapter 9

Deathflight shook his helm lightly as he had long since finished putting away the items Shockbolt bought. They had gone 'shopping' though death had just stayed outside due to how he looked like Shockbolt shopped for everything they needed.

Deathflight picked up on Shockbolt changed mood as she spoke having picked up nightcatcher's call "nightcatcher, are you alright?" Shockbolt looked over at Deathflight with an all too familiar look on her faceplating,  the sound of his armor shuffling around had rang out through her side of the comlink as he pulled the slab of armor back over his wings without a second thought knowing they would need him in his beast mode at the moment. 

Deathflight looked over at Shockbolt as he swallowed his dinner energon cube down in one motion somewhat making Shockbolt visibly cringe at the sight of it, due to his throat armor visibly moving to accommodate the cube's size until it disappeared into his tanks.

" N-no..is there any chance y-you might be able to swing by..? I-..I took a tumble and it doesn't look to good, I can meet you behind off to the East wing of the estate..there's a garden there big enough to hide you both, but the gaurds will be on patrol so please be careful.."

She asked/warned then as she gave a harsh grunt before the sound of her choking back a pained sob could be heard, forcing herself onto her pedes she grabbed a slightly bigger bag shoving both her candies, some currency, a few other items she couldn't really leave without like her daggers her carrier had given to her as a heirloom, along with a few books. Ripping off what was leave of her old armour she slowly began to put on more causal yet looser armour.

It hid the more damaged parts of her frame well, but the way she limped and stumbled was a clear give away to her true condition as she stumbled through the halls leaving shockbolt on the call whilst she walked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shockbolt practically teleported onto Deathflight's backplating as he rushed his frame down the ship's ramp, once his claws left the ramp the ship instantly begun closing it.

Shockbolt had to hold on for her life a bit as Deathflight's claw steps could be heard through her comlink as he sprinted down the maze of streets, occasionally having to jump over different transportation vehicles ever few streets he went through sue to them being in the way.

Deathflight momentarily dragged his tail as he slid to a halt along the east wing, where Shockbolt was directing him to go. Successfully avoiding the guards due to how slow death walked to reduce an thing from his frame to make a noise. Resulting in the usual sound and vibration that were emitted from his claw steps had reduced down to no sound and very minimal vibration that would take a bot standing still to feel.

Deathflight softly huffed as he finally stepped into the garden lowering his helm in the process so the energon trees didn't collide with his helm with Shockbolt hanging onto his muzzle so she wouldn't be hit by the trees as well, while his entire backplating was scratching and scrapping along due to the trees.

Deathflight stopped at the center of the garden, somewhat sitting his frame down while making sure to stay alert. Death stopped himself from growling when he picked up on incoming scent that being nightcatcher's scent, along with another scent that he clearly didn't like.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nightcatcher had managed to sneak past the security checks and continued to stumble out the back doors to the estate out into the open backyard of the housing unit, where she could be seen from the garden that hid the two bots. She could hear the shuffling and faint noises coming from the call and couldn't help but feel horrible for disturbing them this late, even if it was still considered into the early hours of the evening. Shuffling down the small sloup that represented the end to the lush patio and pool area she clutched into her abdomen while faint coughing could be heard coming from her side of the call. Spitting out a small bit of energon she tried to focus her blurring vision as she hastily limped over to the garden hoping and praying that the gaurds were off shift .
