Fallen Warrior

Ambush

Flame Shadow continued to spy on Megatron and Knock Out trying to find out what Megatron was hiding.

But much to her dismay he whispered it in Knock Out's audio receptor so she didn't hear what was said. But saw Knock Out run a few tests on Megatron. But didn't know what for. And then started to leave the med bay when suddenly they were all called to a team meeting.

She had just left the room when the call came in so Megatron and Knock Out didn't know she had been eavesdropping on them. So she just went to the main area in the scrap yard like nothing happened. But was still wondering what was going on with the old warlord.

Once everyone was in the main area Optimus Prime and Bumblebee told them what was going on.

"We have received a transmission from Cybertron about a former Decepticon who has information about the DJD and he has agreed to tell us everything he knows about them in exchange for a safe haven from them." Optimus explain.

"But Steeljaw has his pack back together and are at the old steel mill and may or may not be working with the DJD and we need to find out what their up to." Bumblebee added. "So were sending two teams."

"Bumblebee, Sideswipe, Drift, Strongarm, Grimlock and Fixit will go to the steel mill to confront Steeljaw and his pack since they have dealt with them many times before." Optimus told them.

"And Megatron, Ratchet, Arcee, Windblade and Knock Out will go to Cybertron to meet the former Decepticon the rest of the team will go to Hanger E to prepare it as a second base if we have more then one Earth base it will be harder for the cons to know our location." Bumblebee explained.

"Good plan." Said Flame Shadow.

"And you and Starscream will stay here and guard the scrap yard because even though the humans are off on a camping trip right now we need to keep Denny and Russell's home safe and Starscream is still recovering from his encounter with Lockdown and is in no condition to fight at the time being." Optimus told her.

"No problem." She replied.

Then the team's went off on their missions and Flame Shadow stayed at the scrap yard and started reading a datapad while Starscream was still recharging in his room.

When she noticed the power went out and the communications were down. Flame Shadow didn't like this one bit and went to see what was going on and spotted Lockdown who had cut the power to get by the security system.

Unfortunately Lockdown saw her at the same moment she saw him and she quickly made herself inviable knowing that was her best chance to fight him. But then he fire a blast from his arm canon right at her. Luckily she managed to dodge and was only grazed across the midsection.

But she realized he had set his optics to see the heat signature her spark gave off so her invisibility would be useless so she resorted to hiding in the scrapheaps but she was leaking energon from where he had grazed her and leaving a trail he kept following. She kept moving knowing she'd be no match for him without the element of surprise.

"Come out come out wherever you are." Lockdown mocked as he walked to the scrapheap she was hiding behind.

Flame Shadow could hear him approaching her and when he came around the pile of scrap she was using as cover she quickly use her flamethrower shooting flames right into his face forcing him to shield it with his hands this gave her a chance to escape.

But she ended up tripping over some metal beams Denny had been planning to build something with and the next thing she knew Lockdown had caught up to her and yanked her up by the neck and tossed her back to the ground then started beating her into it.
