Opening Scene - Kaboom
Kaboom was more patient than Perceptor, despite her name suggesting otherwise, and worked slow and tediously, picking through the fragmented data and files for anything, any scrap of information that might clue them in to where this little bot had come from, or what had happened to him. She chewed slightly at her lower lip as she picked over the data fragments like broken glass, until finally she found a tiny piece just big enough to read.
Her face grew dark and sour instantly. Shockwave. She shouldn't have been overly surprised. She hated the Decepticons like any Autobot loyalist, but harbored a great deal of particular disgust and disdain toward the 'scientist' and his obscene excuse for experimentation. His lack of ethics and value of life only made the whole thing that much worse.
She reached over and plugged another inteface cord into the monitor of the console and relayed the video information to it. It was terribly grainy and some flickers were distorted, but Kaboom managed to still frame on the clearest shot she had seen in the few seconds of video provided. Despite the grain and static surrounding the image, it was unmistakable.
"Shockwave," she said darkly, not sounding slightly surprised. "Knowing this sicko and where the mini was found, I'd bet my scope he had something to do with our little friend's creation. Or death. Or both, they were so close in time frame."
