User blog:Bzero/Windblade Captured!

An Autobot medic appears in a video recorded in the William 'Sparkplug' Witwicky Repair and Maintenance Center outside Iacon. Although his face isn’t designed to express emotion, his voice more than makes up for it. “CRZ!” he exclaims. “Karmen reported losing radio contact with Chromia and Windblade over the Ring of Steel between Valvolux and home – I mean, Iacon.” He shakes his head quickly. “Ambulon and I took an escort out to investigate, and...”

The medic shakes his head again, and steps aside to reveal the body of a badly-burned Chromia laying on a medtable. Chromia’s mirrored armor is cracked and broken. “CRZ!” the medic repeats. “We found Commander Chromia like this -- she is clinging to life with the help of several life-support systems, and if it wasn’t for her thick armor, she’s sure to have been dead. Worse,” the medic pauses, revving up his cooling fans. “Windblade is simply missing, although there were obvious signs of a fight.”

“The obvious conclusion is someone attacked Chromia and made off with Windblade, but until Chromia wakes up, we have no leads unless Command can deploy a tracker. Although Decepticons are the most likely culprit, as yet we can’t rule out the Seacons, The Swarm, The Fallen – by the Pit, I still don’t trust the Dominicons, even if they’re helping in Valvolux!” The medic shakes his head, and spits, “CRZ!” once more.

After another moment of letting his cooling fans run, the medic turns back to the camera. “Ambulon and I will do everything we can for Commander Chromia, and report again the moment she wakes up. Until then... ‘til all are one, or whatever. Signal Flare out.” The recording ends.
