Walking Forge

Hey there you tiny punks, I wouldn't get to close if I were you. Sometimes I tend to run a little hot, hah! Just don't get yourself on the boss's list, and we won't have any problems. If so..you better start sweating, cause it's gonna get hot. Real hot....

"H-Helex?!"

“Nickel! What’s up? Anything special going’ on in the medbay?”

[medic-mum-blog1]

She almost looks like she’s seen a ghost, but none the less Nickel smiles at the large mech. “Uh, well no not more than usual.” There’s no thought and she races forward, wrapping her small arms around his leg and hugging tightly.

[meltandsmelt]

Helex craned his neck to see the small medic clinging to his pede. “You sure are happy to see me, hah! Have I been gone that long?” Crouching down to see her better, he offered a smile. “You haven't been getting into trouble have ya?”

Many of the hallways and central buildings of cities the DJD visited were often too small for Tess and him to enter, acting as guards out front instead. But in this case, the central Hub of the trading post had plenty of loading bays to enter from, and had large, domed ceilings. The entire building itself was large, stretching up into the hillside of the jungle-like environment. Many bots liked to stay in this lush environment not only for the protection of an equal ground, but how it mimicked Cybertron’s glory days- thick with fauna and life of all kinds. How it used to be. No sides, just…living.

| ☘ | The radar in the side of his helmets screen finally recollected itself as it has registered nearly everything that it could, over working the program for a moment. Luckily she was not here to feel it’s overwhelming effects. Getting a better look of the massive warehouse they were in once Helex opened his palm, he heard the smelter explain the situation. The alien could speak without having to use his COMM link to the other, but John still had to maintain radio contact with the other so he could even be heard.

“Not what you had in mind, huh? Well tough luck. This ain’t no luxury ride after all.” He chuckled, but looked about his shoulders at the mention. The rows of spikes that lined his shoulders alone could hide him, and the overhang on his back would shelter him as well- if he wasn’t sold immediately that is. “You might not be coming back with me at all- depending on what yer worth in Shanix. Can’t say it’ll be any funner than what Tarn would have in mind.” He noted, looking down at chief in his swaying palm.  When the smelter came to a stop with a great puff of steam, he couldn't help but smile at the sight of Swindle in a gruff down below. “Oh come of it Swindle, I made sure to meet you in middle ground this time! You’d want me to waltz down Iacon and scare the rest of your customers off just to make it easier for ya? If Tarn were here he’d have me half smelt you just for complaining probably.” Helex belted out a haughty laugh, one that shook the room before crouching to see the black market dealer better. “Anyway, before you start complain’ any more, Here’s the whole reason I asked to meet ya.” He gripped his smaller hand once again around John, tight enough that he couldn't writhe, and outstretched it for Swindle to see. “Found ‘em crashed in the Metallic Plains where I was marauding. I think he’s some sort of...mash-up?” Helex turned him about, as if inspecting a coin. “I’ve been monitoring his outputs, he’s got organic vitals but...looks like a ‘bot on the outside. ‘Dunno. Any ideas?”

After a while, Helex stopped checking over at the small form hunkered down int he seat. It was clear he wasn’t moving, nor was he speaking up in protest any longer. He was almost glad- not that he didn’t like to chat with others, as he loved to be around the other DJD- but he was used to traveling solo. Better less be said anyway, they were not friends after all.

| ☘ | As he had no time to interject or even  move from the large servo reaching out for him, he only made a faint grunt as he was picked up, still not used to being carried like  that. The darkness covered him quickly as he was held close to the titan’s chest for a protection against being spotted by other metallic menaces.

Many of the hallways and central buildings of cities the DJD visited were often too small for Tess and him to enter, acting as guards out front instead. But in this case, the central Hub of the trading post had plenty of loading bays to enter from, and had large, domed ceilings.

Many bots liked to stay in this lush environment not only for the protection of an equal ground, but how it mimicked Cybertron’s glory days- thick with fauna and life of all kinds. How it used to be. No sides, just...living. 

Helex obviously had stirred up the locals upon arrival, many either quickly scurrying inside buildings or stopping to stare. His full tank was a clear warning to all that business had been done, and there was always room for another inside that swirling slag. He ignored most, ducking into a loading bay before closing it behind him. He was so set on getting inside, that the comm from the other almost surprised him. With a snort, he shook his head. ::I’m not really taking you anywhere. You’re just coming along for the ride. If I left you in the ship, theres no telling what you’d get into- or someone might steal you. Either way- no good.::

The halls were dark, as the hanger he was in was supposedly closed.  Most deals done between Decepticons were better done where the eye does not see, even on equal ground. Unfurling his hands, he let the other free of his prison. There was no present danger here for quite some time. His full tank filled the empty space with a warm light, bouncing off the idle machinery and stored ships awaiting use. Magenta eyes searching the walls, looking for the appropriately named room, he snorted in recognition and ducked into the next hall. His heavy steps shaking the hangar, the walls groaned as things repositioned with his stride. 

“So.” The smelter said aloud. “Im probably gonna have to haul a lot of stuff back with me. If i drain my tank I could stick you in there and not worry about you bein’ seen..If yer heat resistant, that is.. Are you?” he thought aloud, eyes focusing on Chief. “...Or, find a place to stick you while I haul everything back.”

[neverbreaksapromise-blog]

| ☘ | Chief was accompanied by the smelter in his personal quarter’s that he was given to him on the Decepticon’s ship. The room was easily able to fit the alien with ease since the ship was accommodated for him, but the pilot had created a small space for the human to remain during his time in space with him. This time Helex, who was normally a gargantuan machine, took on the form of a solid hologram that gained the appearance of a human and stand at the same height as the real human before him.

Moving from short conversations on the couch to moving closer to one another over time, John was hesitant on every action that he made and received. Hands moving from other hands and traveling to the stubble cheeks in front of him, John dared not to move any closer that he already was.

[meltandsmelt]

Having never used a Holoform before, it sure took aome getting used to. Seeing the world from a different angle was bizzare, and disorientatating at first. When you go from towering most things around you, to being on the flipside, sure can make you feel strange. However, Helex had the most problem with only having one pair of arms, and feeling…weak. No longer was he sure of himself with his thick armor coating, even if the holoform was just an projection and not real, still made Helex antsy. However, it made it easy to see how Chief saw things. Strange, immense, and alien. But it also let Helex see eye to eye with the one he had held prisoner for so long, and hear what they had to say without the use of comms, or behind the helmet Helex had always assumed was his face. With the touch from the other, Helex turned to look at the other with a intereated look. Lifting his own hand in instict, ready to rip it away, was intead settled on the same hand laid upon his face. He laughed, amused as if it was some expression the other had yet to explain to him. “Chief?”

[neverbreaksapromise-blog]

| ☘ | As usual he did not verbally respond to him and hoped his actions could somehow be picked up by the alien. He never even bothered to think if they would even kiss or share similar intimate moments such as his species would. He felt like a fool for rushing in on this. For most things he was fine on rushing in without a real idea on what would happen, but this?? It was too much. Coming back to reality, John pressed the cheeks he was squeezing together to feel how solid he really was. It was impressive to be able to feel the pixels that where once on the screen a few moments ago. Oh how his friend yearned for the touch this one had. If only they where together again, she could relish in on this discovery.

“… Nothing. I just wanted to see if you really where here or just a hologram.” Slowly, he slid his hands down the others face and let them rest on his chest before taking his hands back to his side.

[meltandsmelt]

When John touched his face, he couldnt help but laugh. “Hah! What in the world?” He reached up to rub his own face, incase the holoform has somthing wrong. With the goofy grin he usually had wide across his face, he was about to reach up and do the same to Chief, but stopped once his hand laid on his chest. His grin disappeared though, once he watched the hand be withdrawn. “Hmm…”..the smile reappeared. “Of course I’m here, you can see me cant ya? Yea it may seem a little weird, I myself dont really know how it works. Not exactly my field of expertise!” Helex chuckled, and lifted a hand, an placed it on John’s shoulder, even though he was looking away. “But you can feel me, so you know im here, right?… I’ll prove it to you.” The smelter moved his hand from Chief’s shoulder to his face, and leaned close to give the other a kiss.

“Hmm?” Optics still stuck on the stars cape infront of him, he slowly drew his head to find and focus on the small one. “Another ship? No, nothing other than the cargo ships-like the ones I looted back on that base. Really the only thing that leaves and goes around this part of the system.”

| ☘ | Giving up was not an option for this soldier, but giving himself some time to adjust and collect himself before he would dive head first into the new situation would be best. Luckily for him, he had the time to afford such a luxury of thinking of a battle plan. Interrogation and being held against his will is nothing new to him and kept quiet about the remarks the alien would make, listening to him explain what he had in store for him in the future.

He had no intentions of getting help to escape, but the possibility may still there for him, if he made sure to get on the giant’s good side. Hopefully whatever strange experiments were not lethal, otherwise what would be the point of trying to contact anyone from any base?? He glanced over at the light that was focused on his visor and gave it little attention when he noticed it Helex himself looking down at him like if he was some sort of insect.

Humans always seemed to get the short end o f the stick for certain evolutionary enhancements, but he was most certainly not to be taken for granted and cast aside as such. Focusing his glance back up to the immensely large window above him, he hoped that one day space travel would not be a thing for him for some time. It  was so large, so empty. Yet full of wonders and dangers that could easily get one such as himself lost in it. That alone did make him feel like an insect, and he hated that.

[meltandsmelt]

After a while, Helex stopped checking over at the small form hunkered down int he seat. It was clear he wasn't moving, nor was he speaking up in protest any longer. He was almost glad- not that he didn't like to chat with others, as he loved to be around the other DJD- but he was used to traveling solo. Better less be said anyway, they were not friends after all. 

Hours had passed, and they were finally nearing the second planet- a neutral zone for both sides of the opposition that was made up mostly of oceans and jungles. Helex called in to the landing zone, and was already in the lineup to land. Once the ship was set to hover, the smelter stood up and rummaged around in the back of the ship, gathering what he was told to drop off and a list of what to retrieve. Sending the goods to his subspace after his comms lit up with the green light to land, he hurried back to the pilots seat and made his way down to the landing pad. 

“Hey.” Reaching out with a lower arm, he tapped the chair that Chief was in. “Look, remember how I said there others as big as me walking around here?” He asked, with a stern tone. “Well, I was joking. I’m bigger than probably all you’ll see here, so don't try any leaps of faith out of my hands alright? ‘Bots of both sides are around here, and they're all much smaller- they’d notice you on the ground right away and the least I can say is it won't end good for either of us.”

Before the other could even respond, the smelter scooped up the other in a secondary hand and quickly tucked him close as he opened the bay doors to avoid others from seeing. Not that any prying eyes should look his way, that is. Even though this was neutral ground, all still feared the presence of the DJD. After locking the ship up, the rhythmic heavy stride was heard once again and he lugged himself toward the base hub. ::Don't cause any trouble. Keep your comm channel on mine alone, alright?::

With one last tap and an exhausted sigh, finally his catalog was sent away to his beloved leader. Resting in his chair for use a moment, he soon stood back up - glancing down at Chief for a second- and began to start up the ship. The array of lights and displays lit up the once dim cockpit, and the engine’s whirr hummed as if pleased it leave this dusty terrain. With the lights now on, Helex noticed debris stuck around his pedes, jutting out like jagged spears from his earlier escaped. With a snort from Helex in humor, he pulled them out and opened the bay doors to toss them to the ground outside.

| ☘ | Not only was Chief being held completely captive by the massive alien, he was now in a real threat of being crushed by others like him. John assumed that the metal being was not his own species, but just being around others who were just as large or even larger would be very dangerous for him. Remaining in his seat and looking at what little view he can from the window, all he could do was sit back.

For now.

If his assumption was right, he was to be left alone in the massive ship while the metal being completed its new objective. Whatever it was, he knew time would be of the essence and needed to act fast on his short interval of being alone. There had to be something here that could be used to radio back to the emergency channels he knew of. All he had to do was wait and find what he needed. For now, he would only ask questions to pass the time or get something else out of him.

“… On your way to the planet we were just on, did you happen to run into another ship?? It would have been destroyed. Or maybe any sort of debris??”

New ideas kept popping into  his head,  but for now he knew the hailing would be the best and currently the only option  he had for now.

[meltandsmelt]

“Hmm?” Optics still stuck on the stars cape infront of him, he slowly drew his head to find and focus on the small one. “Another ship? No, nothing other than the cargo ships-like the ones I looted back on that base. Really the only thing that leaves and goes around this part of the system.”

Thinking of why in the world the Chief would be so interested, he remembered him trying to send a signal out in the tower. Helex snorted. “You thinking someone out there might’ve been hanging around out there? Look, I hate to say it but I’d give up if I were you.” The smelter switch the ship to auto-piolit, and turned his chair to fully face the other, secondary arms crossed. A puff of steam escaped his lips, and gave a amused look to the captive. 

“Even if there was someone out there, waiting around orbit, they wouldn't get to you. Our technology works on a different level than whatever you have, I’m sure. With the exception of our short-wave comms, surprisingly.” Helex tapped his audial. “ If all you got was static, that’s all they’ll have on their end too.” With a exasperated sigh, he hovered over the small one, magenta optics and cheek grooves casting a dim light over the green armor.  “I don't even know why I’m explaining this, cause it’s not like I'm going to help you escape. I let you on that tower cause I didn't expect it to even work. Even if they showed up right now, it’s not gonna happen. Now if we find out your kind si of some actual importance, then I’d help you get a stable connection to them. So the more you cooperate, the faster you might give your buds a call. You got that?” Optics narrowing, the light now constructed into a line across the other’s visor. Straightening himself, he flicked off auto- pilot and resumed his controls with a huffy grunt.

A small boof is made to the big mech.

Helex looked side to side, trying to figure out where the faint noise came from. “Boof.....?” he uttered in answer.

Civil War Meme ;; "Made you look."

“What in the world??” Helex looked around, over his shoulder, everywhere he could to try to pinpoint the voice that seemed to emanate from nowhere. Eventually looking down, he was surprised to see the soldier below. “Primus.” He huffed out, leaning down to see the other better with a laugh. “You’re harder to see than a Minibot. But you got me, that’s for sure.”

[meltandsmelt]

"Hmm. I still don't like it, but I guess I'll overlook it. This time."

“Look, you can’t be judgmental about things before you even get to know behind the scenes. Yea yea, big ‘ol death oven romping around going ‘Grrr I’m gonna eat ya!’ isn’t exactly 100% of the time what I’m doing. So yea I’m a DJD, but not out to disembowl ‘bots ALL the time just cause I’m purple!”

"Did you know about this?"

"If you do this, they will never stop being afraid of you."

"I can't control their fear, only my own."

"Can you move your seat up?"

"Couldn't you have done that earlier?"

"I hate you."

"Clearly retirement doesn't suit you, get tired of playing golf?"

"Well, I played 18, I shot 18, just can't seem to miss."

"First time for everything."

"Made you look."

"Anyone ever tell you you're a little paranoid?"

"I know you're nervous and you have every right to be, but you're lying."

"Do you even remember them?"

"I remember them all."

"How long are you gonna play both sides?"

"Are you incapable of dropping your ego for one god damn second?"

"I'm not the one who needs to watch their back."

"Are you sure about this?"

"I can't trust my own mind."

"So you like cats?"

"How long do you think you can save your friend from me?"

"Well, then... what are you doing here?"

"I didn't want you to be alone..."

"The people that shoot at you, usually wind up shooting at me."

"I don't do that anymore."

"Well, the people who think you did are coming here now. And they're not planning on taking you alive."

"That's smart. Good strategy."

"It always ends in a fight."

"Shit! I thought it was a water truck. My bad!"

"You seem a little defensive."

"Well, it's been a long day."

"Oh, you're going to have to take this to the shop!"

"Who's speaking?"

"It's your conscience. We don't talk a lot these days."

"Are we still friends?"

"That depends on how hard you hit me."

"Give me back my ____!"

"I said I would help you find him, not catch him."

"What's up tic-tac?"

"I can do this all day."

"Ugh...what time zone is this?"

"Sometimes I just want to punch you in your perfect teeth."

"Bit late to be wandering around, isn't it?"

"Let me guess... someone stole your sweetroll."

"I find your hand in my pocket, I'm going to cut it off."

"Fear not. Come dragon or giant, we'll be ready."

"Hmm. I still don't like it, but I guess I'll overlook it. This time."

"Ugh. Your breath is foul. What've you been eating?"

"You hear that? I swear, there's something out there. In the dark."

"Only burglars and vampires creep around after dark. So which are you?"

"I need to ask you to stop. That... shouting... is making people nervous."

"I know your kind, always sneaking about."

"Disrespect the law, and you disrespect me."

"Trouble?"

"Hands to yourself, sneak thief."

"You come up to me, fists raised? You looking for a beating?"

"No lollygaggin'."

"Everything's in order."

"Heard about you and your honeyed words..."

"Could sure use a warm bed right about now..."

"Watch the skies, traveler."

"So you can cast a few spells? Am I supposed to be impressed?"
