“What the frag?!” Scorchlock said with a snapping tone as he walked towards the Grenade and picked it. “You telling me I wasted my money on a godforsaken, shockwave experiment?” He asked as he glanced at his comrades. “I knew that one-eyed tech always sucked!”
“Well, we can’t just sit here around and do nothing.” King-Quan points out, as he glanced at the Sentinel.
Scorchlock’s expression changed from laid back to entirely shocked as he rose his metal-eyebrows up. “Ah, bolts…” He said as he looked around the place.
“Well, whatever that grenade did. It did something.” He mentioned as he glanced at the door. “Maybe…” He muttered as he walked towards the entrance, and he moved his hand towards it, hoping it would pass through the gate, rather than having him hit the solid object.
“I hoped it wouldn’t come to this…” King-Quan said as he stepped closer towards the Sentinel. His sharp eyes glanced at him before he withdrew one of his long energy bladed swords.
He pointed with it upwards, in the Sentinel’s direction. “I challenge you to a dual.” He declared. “Should you win, we will never return. However, if I win. You will grant us passage.” His tone took a sharp and serious one.
Scorchlock was confused before he took a nearby piece of metal and glanced at Delta. “Catch.” He told her as he threw it towards her, he was testing his surroundings.
King-Quan shook his head. “I’m afraid I cannot do that.” He said, his tone holding no arguing. “The Cybertroniankind depends on that door which you are protecting.” He mentioned. “If I have to fight a Knight or sacrifice myself for Primus’ Salvation…” He paused before speaking again. “I will.”
He glanced around the place. “Well…we’re screwed.” He said. “Whatever that grenade did…we can’t touch anything.”
King-Quan bowed his head down. “Should we ever betray you. You will have my spark.” King-Quan said as he sheathed his blade back and began to make his way towards the facility inside.
“One can only imagine the anguish of your very lifeblood being sucked out of you.” Epsilon finished, “Do you need a break? There’s something new outside I am curious about.”
“It is our test, he doesn’t want to interfere.” Zepar told Gronius.
Epsilon leads Sprocket to a window and points to the strange spire, “I don’t think it would be wise to approach it until we know what its function is; thoughts?” He asked.
