Ultra Magnus wrote: “How is that Phase Sixer containment cell coming along, Grapple?”
Grapple wrote: "I have integrated anti-escape measures collected from many of Red Alert's published reports regarding past escapes and have worked to include as many of his recommendations as possible into this cell. I believe it is ready for testing."
”Very well then. Prime, I will leave you to talk to Omega in that case.” Magnus nodded at Grapple. There was good work being done here, but he knew that they needed to do more, much more, if they ever hoped to stand a chance against Scorponok and the phase-sixers.Grapple wrote:"Hmm...I think the medical staff would have a more accurate answer for you, sir. However, I've heard he has been able to communicate. You should have no problems continuing. We've diverted a steady supply of energon for his consumption, thanks to the allocations you and Prowl authorized."
”Excellent work, Grapple. I am assuming you have the automated, state-of-the-art restraints and the energy dampers in place, as commissioned earlier,” Magnus noted, impressed by Grapple’s progress. “Do you have any tests or test subjects in mind?”Grapple wrote:"I have integrated anti-escape measures collected from many of Red Alert's published reports regarding past escapes and have worked to include as many of his recommendations as possible into this cell.

Prime was glad to have gotten news of developments. At the very least, he could take relief in knowing that Magnus had things under control. For now, anyway. There was no doubt that there were more who wanted to talk to him, but he needed to start contributing himself. Though he was in no position to get back to leading, he knew he could start small. And, ironically enough, that small step would be to first talk to Omega Supreme.Ultra Magnus wrote:”Very well then. Prime, I will leave you to talk to Omega in that case.”
“Omega. It is a relief to see you safe here. I received word of the incident, and while we need you to rest, I do still have my questions.”
“What are the odds that we are facing? And… more importantly, what of Garrus-9?”
”I see,” Prime said, nodding slightly in response, “Thank you for informing me, nevertheless. I am equally as glad as you to see those files out of their hands.” Rung didn’t seem like he would’ve known too much, and he confessed so himself, but Optimus took that into consideration. “Your presence here will be of much help to us, Rung. I’m afraid there have been some… incidents… that have particularly shaken some of our troops. You would do well to counsel some of them. I’m not sure what all is being planned at the moment, but both you and I will soon be having our hands filled with responsibility.”Rung wrote:”I must protest Optimus, my patient files are confidential as you should know and while you are entitled to read them given your position – I doubt that a collection of psychological evaluations of nearly all Autobots and thousands of Decepticon prisoners are going to help in this situation. They will only distract you.”
”I… have not been in the know for some time. Magnus and Prowl have been busy, and I had thought that consulting you may have shed some more light on current matters. But, regardless, thank you for your help.”Omega Supreme wrote:”THE OTHER FLEETS… I AM UNAWARE OF. HAVE NOT THE FLEET ACTIONS BEEN MANAGED BY THE AUTOBOT HIGH COMMAND?”

Mirage wrote:“Well, let’s get started then. Not much point in waiting it out here. Keep up.”
Optimus Prime wrote: “Come, old friend. If we are to prepare,” he said, turning back into the direction of the Ark, “I will need your help in dusting off some of this rustiness.”
Howlstrike wrote:“This one appears good, but I’m no mechanic,” the tracker admitted to Mirage. “But my scanners don’t indicate a problem here. Since the eastern border has already been checked, I suggest we simply go along the southern side and then up the western border and then around the north. If there are any issues, I’m sure our scanners will pick something up. Sound okay to you?”
Red Alert’s attention was definitely on Sandstorm. What would he know about? Were they plotting something? Or were they… wait, no, they were just discussing the particle scattering operation he just mentioned. Broadside and Sandstorm… Hmm. They could probably hold off on their own if something happened… when something happens…Sandstorm wrote:"Never mind. He would know."
Sideswipe wrote:“Scanners? Wouldn’t a real test give more information, Wolfy? I think this would be a better, and more fun, test.”
Mirage wrote:“What are you suggesting, Sideswipe?”
”I understand. Thank you for the information, Grapple.”Grapple wrote:"The cell should look more or less like any other cell you've, um, ever been held in. The secrets are, 'in the sauce', as these humans like to say. I'm sure you have significant experiences in this arena. Once you're locked in, feel free to try and escape through whatever means necessary. If the final objective is to be able to contain one of Megatron's Phase Six Decepticons, if the opportunity should ever arise, then we need to find out now if it has any flaws."
