Delibarata frowned, starting to get frazzled by Sixshot's doom-saying.

"Enough of this! Thunderwing wields the power of the Chaos Matrix! No one can stand against him! And with Scorponok, and you all as troops, he will make a fair try against the armies of Prime and Teratron."

The situation is serious if a cocky unit like this one seems worried.

"You are right quint, no-one can stand against Thunderwing, but the question remains, does he possess the matrix, or does it possess him?"

Delibarata shook slightly.

"Well...of course Thunderwing controls it. Unicron's chosen to give him his power!"

"Perhaps, now is not the time for idle chat however, we must see to it that Thunderwing is brought back online, I fear that the Decepticon/Autobot alliance will hold true, and a strike will be imminent."

"Good thinking," Delibarata said. "However, the repair time table is in Scorponok's hands now."

"In the meantime", Thrust said. "What do you two propose we do?"

Dirge shrugged.

"If Scorponok will let us, I think re-charging might be smart. We haven't rested for a while."

Inside Scorponok's repairbays

Hours passed as the drones within Scorponok's medbay continued to repair Thunderwing's suffered body with the limited resources they had but some progress had been reached. It was only a matter of time before Thunderwing would wake up from the statis although there was still repairs to be made...

Thunderwing's systems came online slowly, in fitful bursts.

His exoskeleton had been repaired, new optics installed, etc.

Pain? Yes, it was present. But Thunderwing's breeding had been such that pain was only a temporary set back, and made one stronger. It was a fact of life.

Thunderwing rose off the examination table, stretching.

"Much obliged, Scorponok," he said. "Are all your systems operational? I intend to began utilizing you as my next command base after all."

Dreadwind and Apeface moved to Darkwing, who had been worked over, and lay still.

"You think he's alive?", Dreadwind asked.

Apeface touched Darkwing's shoulder...and his opposite arm shot out and grabbed his arm, as the Horrorcon reacted.

"YIKES!"

"Does that answer your question?" Dirge chuckled, turning to watch the disturbance.

"All we need now is someone to laugh maniacally and you guys to be in Black and White and we'd be set!"

Skywarp casually walked over to see what was happening...

Dirge turned and shrugged as Skywarp approached.

"I thought maniacal laughing was your department, you being the prankster of this merry little band."

"Not a great deal to laugh about Dirge" Sixshot made his presence known from the shadows.

"Look at us, a rag-tag, currently leaderless, group of Decepticons, reduced to hiding..."

Dirge peered into the shadows, looking for Sixshot.

Sixshot has a knack for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.

"Come on, Sixshot! Why are you so worried! Thunderwing can't be defeated! We've got to have faith, or we've already lost! Ramjet once told me that panic would be my undoing. Well, no more! We have to stand fast!"

Dirge shook his head.

"Thunderwing took us in when no other faction would have us. We owe him that, Sixshot. Loyalty, remember?"

"I know where my loyalties lie Jet. I know Thunderwing better than any of you. If you fear the worst, then the outcome is usually better than you expected...."

Sixshot knew his company wasn't appreciated, he continued none-the-less.

"What of our fallen comrades?"

"I think he means Thundercracker and Darkwing"

Skywarp answered the question for Sixshot.

Dirge scratched his head.

"Say what you mean, next time. They aren't dead!"

"No, but they were felled in battle, were they not Dirge..."

Sixshot decided to speak for himself.

"It matters not, what is their status."
