"The usual kind," Arcee sighed. "We're attempting to relocate some of the Decepticons that recently joined up. However... for some reason there's been a recent drop in activity in regards to the number of Decepticons we normally send through."
"It's a concern," Leohawk said worriedly. "Not to mention over the recent rumours about there probably being a new leader amongst the 'Cons just waiting to take us by surprise."
Sideswipe, unable to take anymore of the effects of the high grade, had shutdown due to his automatic recharge systems kicking in. He was now a complete dead weight. And if Arcee had been handling him on her own, she would've collapsed under the sudden weight. She was grateful for Poseidon's assist to make things easier for her.
Tilting her head to one side, Goldwing fluttered from her master's shoulder and onto Poseidon's left one. She twittered again and Leohawk laughed. "Trying to get aquainted aren't you two?" Goldwing screeched in response and nuzzled Poseidon's cheek to show her affection.

Talon sighed. "Ah, I knew this would come. History repeats itself like that." She shook her head, then looked in amusement over at Sideswipe. "Guess he's a light weight."
Poseidon hardly seemed bothered by the weight much, or if he did, he didn't show it. Chuckling, he managed to spare one hand to pet Goldwing. "It seems so. She's very friendly I see." He mused, rumbling gently.
"And pretty." Solaris purred from behind Poseidon, looking like he wanted to pet her too.

"Indeed," Leohawk sighed sadly. "Prime isn't very pleased about the rumours, and he's tried so hard to make the peace good enough for everyone. I've known him for long enough to know the fact that he isn't taking it well."
He laughed at Poseidon. "She can tell you herself if she wants to."
Goldwing nuzzled Poseidon once more and then fluttered over to Solaris' shoulder too, again, twittering and nuzzling her affection towards him. ((Of course I can, Master. You know I always do.))

Talon nodded. "I can tell, especially since I know a lot of mechs are thinking he's responsible for the way some of the Autobots have been acting."
Solaris trilled in joy, gently snuggling the gold falcon. "Oh, what a gorgeous bird..."
Poseidon watched, looking amused as he dragged Sideswipe back to the base with the others.

Goldwing screeched in protest. ((Hey, hey, youngling! Take it easy or you'll ruin the feathers! Master, help!))
Leohawk just laughed with amusement. "Nah, I'd rather watch you suffer." He glanced over at Talon and nodded in agreement. "Yes... Optimus is doing his best, but no matter what he does, they always seem to hate him even more."

Talon sighed. "Now I know it was a good idea to raise my children as neutrals..."
Solaris lightened the hugs, but only slightly, still purring.

Goldwing ceased her struggling and gave Solaris a gentle peck on the audio receptor.
"Indeed," agreed Leohawk. "Things are a lot worse than I realised when I came over here and saw Sideswipe fighting with Solaris. Some of those that were born into the war have been picking fights with 'Cons, and that's something Prime will not tolerate. He worked so hard to make the peace treaty and he's disgusted with how things are working out."
Arcee turned to Leohawk, anger in her optics. "I agree, even I'm disgusted with what's going on. The Council has to be notified about this immediately."
"In order for the Council to be notified," Leohawk explained softly, "a message has to be sent to them and approved of it. That" -Leohawk growled out the word in disdain- "is something that will take patience to get through. Patience that Prime is running out of."
Sideswipe stirred in his knocked out state, shifting his weight slightly but didn't awaken.

"Red tape." Talon concluded with a sigh. "Not to mention all of these rumors getting around of a new Decepticon hopeful trying to become leader. If that happens and if he's any bit as convincing at Megatron was...we're in trouble. All of those defected Decepticons here in Iacon..." She left it hanging, knowing she didn't need to say more.
Solaris murmured at the words, gently placing Goldwing back on Leohawk's shoulder so he could give his mother a good hug. Warsong look unsettled and Poseidon was holding back a snarl.
"Does Prime have a plan for this?" He eventually asked, voice heavy as he looked down at Sideswipe, gently nudging him awake.

Sideswipe mumbled something inaudiable, waving a hand as though he didn't want to be disturbed from his slumber.
Goldwing transformed back into Leohawk's chest plates, her task complete. Leohawk felt his audio receptors pull back as he struggled to hild back his annoyance. "We're not sure. He hasn't discussed anything with the other officers in a good long while."

Poseidon gave an annoyed roll of his optics when Sideswipe refused to wake up, very nearly pouting.
Talon merely sighed and held onto her youngest son in a way that only she would hold him. "Perhaps I'll come along then. See if I can at least catch him while I'm over there. I need to know what's to be done."
Warsong nodded eagerly in agreement. Not only did she want a chance to get away from their typical venues, she wanted to see her father again.
