The first thing he noticed as he exited stasis, was the pain and overwhelming amount of alerts on their HUD, a soft and static laced groan escaping their damaged vocalizer. With a hiss, they pushed themselves up and off the rough terrain with energon covered servos, most of it dried.
They sat there for a few kliks, time moving as if it were in a pool of sludge. Why was there.. energon on their servos?
They looked down at their chassis and shoulder platings, taking note of the various slash and burns marring their relatively smooth plating. Most seemed to have been cauterized when they were made, but a few of the smaller ones still leaked Energon.
That wasn’t the main source of the alerts though.
They looked down at their pedes, optic widening behind their cracked battlemask as they were made fully aware of the mangled state of their left pede, rendering it unable to move. Most of the sensors from the region were deactivated or damaged, but the ones that were active, were alight with constant waves of agony that made them dizzy, almost causing them to fall back from their sitting position. The warnings on their HUD were a few breems old, but new ones did not hesitate from popping up.
What happened?
They paused, wracking their processor for something- ANYTHING- that could clue them into why they were so damaged. They were on a retrieval mission..with someone.. they both fell from a high area.. from the sky.. sky.. AURORASTREAK!
Panic hit their spark as they recalled the mission, they were sent with aurora streak to retrieve a relic that had been lost at some point. They.. got the relic.
Wait.
The relic- SCRAP- WAS IT DAMAGED?!
They reached their servos up to their back, the ‘backpack’(really it was just apart of them) detaching from them with a hiss, revealing its heavily beat up state. Most of the sensors were deactivated/destroyed awhile ago, but the ones that were active were dulled. No wonder he didn’t notice..
They reached into the compartments, searching for the relic in a panic. They needed to make sure the mission was a success and find Aurorastreak. They couldn’t fail Fireblast. They promised to protect the youngest of the trine and they weren’t about to fail.
They let out a sigh of relief as they found the relic, grabbing it and moving it to a different compartment before reattaching it to their back. They had to find Aurorastreak..
They both fell- so the seeker had to be nearby. Right?
With a yelp, they pushed themselves up onto their pedes, wheels almost causing them to fall again as they tried to balance on one pede before the wheels found a strong grip in the rough terrain. They glanced around, scanning his surroundings, before their optic landed on a faint purple smoke in the distance. With renewed urgency, they pushed themselves to skate forwards, letting out quiet and strangled sounds of pain as they used their mangled pede to get there faster.
He didn’t know how injured Aurorastreak was, and they were still leaking Energon, their backup rations were lost in the fall along with their medical supplies. Slag. This was very, VERY bad.
They nearly collapsed when they reached their destination, a pool of Energon was forming around the seeker, their right thruster was busted, there was a HUGE hole in their wing- frag frag FRAG WHAT DO THEY DO- there is a large gash on her helm too- they needed to ping for help- anxiety pulsed through them as they sent out a distress signal, their comm-link was bust, that wasn’t good. Primus damnit! Aurorastreak is unconscious so they can’t ask them to comm for additional help. They just had to hope backup was coming soon.
They pressed a servo over Aurorastreaks spark, comforted when they felt his(albeit weak) spark beat. He needed Energon. And FAST. The only other source would be..
A sigh escaped them. It’s fine. Aurorastreak is in stasis. Though- they don’t.. know if it’s emergency stasis.
They checked their own tanks, swallowing at the grim sight.
ENERGON LEVELS: 20%.
It would be enough.
They rubbed the palms of their servos together, feeling waves of fatigue rush over them as they charged up their outlier ability, before SLAMMING their servos down on Aurorastreaks chest.
Immediately, their optic feed blurred and static filled their audio receptors, taking a few resets of each system to readjust, a mass amount of energon leaving their systems.
ALERT: LOW ENERGON. PLEASE REFUEL IMMEDIATELY.
ENERGON LEVELS AT 8%.
They groaned, finally collapsing besides Aurorastreak, their vision beginning to glitch and distort.
ENERGON LEVELS AT 7%. STASIS LOCK IMMINENT.
They sent out another distress signal, praying to Primus it went through, before offlining their optics, coughing up a small glob of Energon. Great. Now they needed to clean their battlemask.
ENERGON LEVELS AT 5%. STASIS LOCK IMMINENT.
Just to be safe, they sent another distress signal, reaching a servo up to check their comm-link.
Nothing but static filled their audio receptors. They let out a sharp intake, pressing their derma together into a thin line.
ENERGON LEVELS AT 4%. STASIS LOCK IMMINENT.
Primus. Please let backup get here soon. At the very least let Aurorastreak make it out of this. Dont have them fail Fireblast. Don’t let them fail Colorbird. Please.
ENERGON LEVELS AT 3%. STASIS LOCK IMMINENT.
They went limp as he let himself slip into stasis in an attempt to save Energon.
💫 “The stars burn ever brightly, their stories forever engraved into the space around them.” 💫
ALT MODE: A fighter jet.
SEXUALITY/PRONOUNS: Panromantic, All pronouns.
BASE INFO:
The quietest of their trine, as well as the youngest(Despite being Split sparks/twins with Colorbird) and smallest. Do not let her size fool you, he packs a hefty punch, being the strongest out of their trine, they are able to handle their own against Chipsign for a short amount of time, they are also the most flexible and can adapt rather fast.
This seeker has strange markings on their face, which glow when they use their outlier ability, which is rarely used. Side effects of this outlier ability also include the strange ‘smoke’ coming from their weapons and thrusters when used, the ‘smoke’ looking similar to the aurora borealis, hence his designation.
They are anxious and rather fidgety, almost never ceasing some kind of movement, similar to Colorbird. They are often passive. They also tend to plan for the future, panicking when things go wrong.
BASE LORE:
Like their trine mates, not much is known about him, however, they were separated from their trine mates when Fireblast prevented them from joining the decepticons(being unsuccessful in convincing Colorbird to join the autobots as well) in fear of their passive and anxious personality leading to potential injuries or even them being offlined, they instead were told to join the autobots with Chipsign, who helped the seeker train and protected them when they were able to. They have since viewed Chipsign as a sibling figure. When the others left their respective factions and fled cybertron, they did as well, being the scout of the group and helping Chipsign gather and locate Energon.
FUNFACTS:
The ‘smoke’ that comes from their thrusters and weapons has a calming effect when inhaled in large quantities.
Their optics are basically flashlights, as they glow EXTREMELY bright in the dark.
One of their wings was nearly torn in half at one point.
The best fighter in servo to servo combat out of their trine.
They have more vents than normal due to their outlier ability causing their body to overheat rapidly, the ‘smoke’ they produce being extremely flammable and heated up when inside their body.
They LOVE the stars, their favorite ability is stargazing.
Their ex-factions symbol is the most obvious one out of all of the wanderers, chipsigns being scratched off, colorbirds being painted over, and fireblasts being burnt off.
💥”The fire kills itself to burn, but its warmth comforts those around it.”💥
ALT MODE: A fighter jet!
Instead of missiles, their built in weapons are fire based(The ones on their arms being flamethrowers). They have lighters built into their hands, and can rapidly heat up their own body.
SEXUALITY/PRONOUNS: He/They, Aroace
BASE INFO:
A loud and energetic bot, but not as loud as one of the other seekers in their trine, they’re the most rational of their trine, as well as the leader of the three.
They are extremely protective of those they consider family. Fireblast does perfectly fine with minimal company, and dislike being in extremely large groups, unlike Colorbird, but can handle social interactions unlike Aurorastreak. They are observant and relatively civil, but often is sarcastic to either their friends or people they dislike, perfectly willing to stand up for themselves. When those they are close to are hurt, they start to panic, panicking often leads to them burning something.
Trinemates: Colorbird, Aurorastreak.
BASE LORE:
Not much is known, but they were a Decepticon Seeker, often sent to either burn the enemies out of their hiding spots or direct attacks on cities.
They have a history of violence with higher ups and are FIERCELY protective of their siblings.
FUNFACTS:
Fireblast is naturally warmer than most cybertronians.
He is built to handle both cold and heat, but they’re built mainly for heat.
His goggles help prevent damage to his optics from heat/light.
Not good at medicinal stuff, but has done self modifications.
When they’re actively heating their body up, their vents start to glow slightly(and the fire badges on their legs).
He has pads on his servos(sorta like paw pads) to prevent burning others when his body is overheating.
When he is heating his body up past normal, like their vents, the inside of their mouth starts to glow.
