Laser: And what last fights were those?

TC: *describes his master coming to him almost gleeful over what he had planned, and goes on to explain the illegal ring and his and others' fights...including the one that brought him and Sun together for the first time*

Sky: *frowning* That's terrible.

Zero: With the match being in the day, it's not likely an illegal one, though it's very possibly a deadly one.

TC: Doesn't have to be illegal to be deadly. Starscream's been nearly killed multiple times for various reasons, as have Warp and I.

Warp: */scowling/* The closer or more impossible the match, the worse the odds for one side an' the better the winnings if that side wins anyway. An' either way, the match is excitin' for the crowds.

Zero: I guess we'll just have to see how things go...

Warp: ...........yeah...

TC: //We'll be there, Starscream. You be careful tomorrow.//

Stars: //I'm always careful.// *but no, really, his master's excitement has him on edge too, so...yeah.*

TC: //We'll be there.// *via bond and, for once, physically...close even if not participating*

Stars: //Looking forward to seeing you both.// *and their little brother.  He may not know Sun, but for all he’s done for his wingmates, he’ll do all he can to keep the mini safe and happy.*

*Both of them are /agape/. Sky is GLOMPED by Warp before the Seeker can contain himself, THANKING him! Even TC has a hard time maintaining his usual stoicism to /thank/ Sky, /gripping/ his hand. As soon as it's time, the two Seekers /dart/ from the viewing box to go visit their trine leader.*

[socrowdedinhere]

Sky: *yips and then laughs, hugging Warp back.* My pleasure guys.
Stars: *has /actually/ been repaired and fueled for this match! So when his wingmates come in he's looking and feeling pretry good!*

[dragondancer5150]

*No words are spoken, none needed. Stars knew the minute they did that they were coming. When they arrive, he's surrounded and fiercely clung to. They wish him well in his last fight, of course, but for now, they're just going to concentrate on getting to /be/ with him, even for just a short time . . . it's been so long . . . they have a "perfect" life now, the two of them, but it's only /near/ perfect…they still long for their trine brother, safe and with them. One day…one day…*

[socrowdedinhere]

Stars: *clings to them without shame. He's not letting go until he absolutely must...and that will be all too soon. They were the last in line so now it's time for his match. Stars stands proud and tall asbhis wingmates are eacorted back out and Stars os taken to the staging area for the last match.*

[dragondancer5150]

*His wingmates also CLUNG until they /had/ to let go. They're /proud/ of their trine leader - GO GET 'EM! - but there's also that knowledge they're /burying/ that something could go wrong, that Stars could be killed, or lose and be viciously punished despite having made it so far, or…or something . . . they return to the viewing box excited and anxious. And /do/ make sure to THANK Sky again for this gift before they settle back down in earnest.*

[socrowdedinhere]

*It is a /hard/ fight, one that has the crowd going /wild/. While he's rather beat up, Stars /does/ win the match. His master is /so pleased/.... and is selling him?! It seems someone wanted to oay a /lot/ of money for a champ, and master agreed to sell Stars if he won...*

[dragondancer5150]

*Even TC and Warp got into the excitement, /screaming/ for their trine leader! And they're /so proud/ of him! It's…it's not wholly surprising that his master is selling him - he gets the money from the winnings /and/ the high-priced sale. They just hope his new master is…as decent to him as can be expected. Maybe they can talk the new master into letting them sneak in a little more time with him before they leave.*

[socrowdedinhere]

*Well... his new Mistress is taking him to the medbay, so....that's a start.*

[dragondancer5150]

*It's definitely good to know.*
Warp: Let's head to the medbay. Maybe Screamer's new mistress'll let him meet you guys. *and give him and TC one last chance to see him…*

[socrowdedinhere]

*everyone eagerly follows, but Zero, Laser, and Sky will hang back to let Sun and the Seekers approach Stars' mistress. She's a small thing, only a little taller than Sun. She looks at the three as they approach.*
Femme: ...I know you two. Thundercracker and Skywarp.

[dragondancer5150]

TC: *bows* Yes, Mistress, thank you. My master, Sundance. *gestures, introducing him to the femme*

[socrowdedinhere]

Sun: H-hello, miss. We came hoping you might allow Starscream a bit of time with his wingmates.
Femme: *eyes the two Seekers, gaze lingering a moment on Warp's bare throat.* I will allow it. He is being seen by medics at the moment, but if they will allow you in you may see him now.

[dragondancer5150]

Warp: *sees that, gaze drops as he self-consciously covers his throat even though he's rightly and legally free*
TC: */bows/* Thank you, Mistress. We promise not to keep him longer than you'll permit. *if not stopped, the two Seekers will head to find the medics working on him*

[socrowdedinhere]

Sun: *will stay to distract Stars' mistress from the time~*
Stars: *shifts his head to look as they step in.*

[dragondancer5150]

*They pause at the door, Stars feeling their /gladness/ to see him even if they don't show it to the medics.*
TC: *bows to them* Masters, Starscream's mistress has given us permission to visit with him if you'll allow it. My name is Thundercracker, this is Skywa-…Master…Skywarp. Starscream is trine to us.
Warp: We won't get in your way, promise.

[socrowdedinhere]

Medic1: That's fine, just stay up by his head.
Stars: *shifts a hand up by his head*

[dragondancer5150]

TC: Thank you, sir.
*The two will move to either side of the berth, pressing to the wall by the head. Warp /grips/ his hand and TC rests a hand on top of his shoulder vent, both of them /clinging/ to him over the bond.*

[socrowdedinhere]

Stars: //I win and I'm still sold off.// *not that he wanted to stay with that fragger, but the unknown of a new master is always unsettling.*

[dragondancer5150]

TC: //Apparently, someone was interested in buying you, and your master decided to sell but only if you one. He could up the price that much more, plus of course he gets the winnings.//
Warp: //Sun asked your new mistress if we could come visit an' she said yes, so…there's that?//

[socrowdedinhere]

((Only if you **won. Since spell check won't catch that in the doc))

Stars: //There is that at least. It is good to see you both. So... on vacation are you? Must be nice.//

[dragondancer5150]

Warp: //It is. Better if you were with us.//
TC: //Always.// *better if Stars could be with them* //You were amazing today, Starscream.//
