User blog:Bzero/Bombshell: Dweller Awakened

Bombshell reports from the Decepticon medical bay. He looks in bad shape – ravaged by the nanovirus, and partially melted from what looks like a blast of pure energon. Struggling to remain sitting up, he reports, “Bad things below Cybertron.”

A voice offscreen says, "Stop fidgeting -- least you didn't get picked up like a giant chew bone and chomped... do you have any idea what you left me to contend with?" Without waiting for Bombshell to answer, the voice continues, "Exactly! Bad thing below Cybertron! Look I'm brave, I'm tough but I'm not that stupid!"

Bombshell turns to look off-screen. "Might I continue?" he asks deadly.

"Go ahead," the voice says quietly at length.

“Thank you,” Bombshell tells the voice, and then turns back to the camera. “I was drawn there by the virus, and though I now have been given the cure, I could still feel the pull of the hunger there. We went to stop it, but its minions were too powerful, and I was almost destroyed. I withdrew to report back, so the Decepticons could be warned. Something has been awakened, and Cybertron may be in peril.”

"May? May? Excuse me? Oh that’s right -- you weren’t there when all the bad things under Cybertron came after me all at once! NO you weren’t."

Bombshell turns slowly to the voice, looking out with tired, near-dead optics.

The voice says, "Whut? It’s the truth."

Bombshell concludes, "Obviously, Windshear will have more to report. Bombshell out."
