A day or so later, there had been plans to make a machine to help with both building and digging downwards to collect more exclusive resources, although there was uncertainty between the Decepitcons. As usual Thrust and the Constructicons disagreed and had quite a massive debate with each other before Soundwave interrupted it by saying that the power box still needed repair and that the Autobots may attack soon. That made everyone stop arguing as Soundwave continued saying that the mines that had those resources were eventually going to get blocked soon so they needed an alternative way. So they decided to put rations on energon since it was a good way to survive with that for now even if it wasn't much.
Soon afterwards Soundwave gave his orders out to them as they left the meeting room. Soundwave looked coldly yet with a hint of intrigue as he walked outside as well as sounds of his considered teammates was going through the area. But today they were discussing about the possibilities of energon running out since the mines were blocked. Soundwave knew he had to find a solution quickly but it wasn't easy and there were complicated factors involving the locations of the energon crystals and if the Autobots were guarding those areas.
Soundwave decided to get to his office as everyone watched him pass by with fear. Everyone was known to be quite scared of Soundwave's cold and fierce attitude when dealing with others. It was noticed that their eyes would look away and their body was tense when talking to him. Meanwhile, Skywarp who wasn't seen for a while teleported in the corridor carrying some wires in his hands, presumably to help fix the power box. Skywarp greeted the others by doing his usual tricks on them which annoyed them a lot.
Skywarp teleported inside of Shockwave's office. He was currently putting a new picture up on the board about the investigation as he noticed Skywarp before saying calmly "I see you had brought the wires Skywarp." As Skywarp nodded before replying "Yeah! Took me a while to get everything, especially with the scummy Autobots." As Shockwave calmly put the pin in the picture and began examining the bag of wires. He read the label before nodding "I see you brought the right size, you may leave." As Skywarp teleported out of there. Shockwave decided to fix the power box again as he put in on his desk.
Skywarp teleported in the main area as he grabbed confetti and threw it on Haze as Haze turned around with an annoyed look on his own face. Haze yelled "Not again Skywarp!" As Skywarp was angering him again. Haze threw the confetti off himself as he walk away as Skywarp teleported giggling to himself as he casted several more pranks on them. A few minutes later, Thundercracker came inside with a serious look on his face as he was holding an bottle that had energon inside. Thundercracker's optics were droopy from exhaustion from being outside for a long time and his hand was seen clenching and unclenching on the fuel bottle. He walked into the storage area and put the heavy bottle down as his expression softened a little bit but it was very subtle that you had to look closely.
Thundercracker hands untensed as he decided to go read a book in the corner in the nemesis. He sat on the soft bean bag before wiping his reading glasses with a small red handkerchief that had yellow spots and small animals on there as he began reading his favourite novel which was a drama and cozy mystery story. While he was reading, the sound of something mechanical building was heard across the area which Thundercracker assumed was someone building/repairing an object. Suddenly he heard two people arguing which he expected as he ignored it and it died down. But it did perk up his interest a bit but for now he stood in his own spot of peace. He flipped over the next page as he was on the climax part of the story as his optics looked with interest as he scanned over the pages.
There the sounds of something moving as Mixmaster came inside as he had a trolley full of items as he seemed to have a slight crazy look on his face. His smirk went to the right side of his face and his eyes were looking somewhere else like he was distracted himself. He walked rolling the trolley through the corridor as his hands gripped on the handle of it. He soon walked across the area as everyone turned to look at him with confusion on their faces. It was assumed that Mixmaster was about to do something again knowing him as everyone watched him pass by.
There was the sound of chatting as Thundercracker turned around and unloaded his gun with the finger on the trigger. The area was quite dim as Thundercracker said "I know someone is there. I can't tell whether if it's an Autobot or a threat." As he looked into the darkness as he gripped his gun. He could sense something was iffy.
