// Emirate, Prime: we have some surprise finds at the Swamp Arrival Point. //
// First, is a live robot identifying himself as 'Dai-Janku'; he appears to be a Junkion, but seems to be from Holi's reality or one like it, according to Perceptor. He mentioned "Star Sabre" as the leader of the Autobots in his universe, and he fights Decepticons. //

// Second and third are two long-submerged, non-functional shells that Perceptor has identified as being from his reality: Wheeljack... and Megatron. //

//Megatron?!// Rodimus exclaims, startled.
//If there's room, bring them back. We can use them as parts. Don't risk yourselves, though, and make sure that Megatron, especially, is dead.//
Yeah. Rodimus has obviously missed what happens next.

Skyfire continues his radio report a bit later. // Good advice, Rodimus, but a bit belated. *brief static* We're going to be delayed until Perceptor gets me repaired. Fortunately my alternate here seems to have matching parts. //
// Quick summary: we were attacked by the supposedly deactivated shells. They seemed to have been reactivated as drones, with control channeling through the deactivated Megatron and Optimus Prime shells; I'm guessing this based on the pattern of attack. Actual control may have been from the alien probe Dai-Janku spotted observing the battle; it looked like another one of those Quintesson probes. Like the previous one, it self-destructed, and managed to bury the two control relays unrecoverably deep in the swamp. Curiously, the attacks seemed to be intended not to destroy us, but to ground us and channel us, possibly for capture. //
// We have picked up a new Junkion, one Dai-Janku, who assisted us in fighting the drones. He may come from Holi's universe; among other things, he follows Star Saber as his Supreme Commander. We will be returning as soon I am repaired. Skyfire, over. //

//Dai-what-who?// Rodimus asks. Then he 'ahs' softly as Skyfire explains.
//Sounds like you guys had quite a time, but if you've got things under control, doesn't sound like there's a need to send more reinforcements.//

// I'll update you when Perceptor has me flight-ready--or if he cannot do so. I'm a little worried about him, Rodimus. He was pretty shaken by the identities of some of the comandeered shells, // Skyfire adds softly.

//I'm sorry to hear that, but he's out there and I'm back here.//
//This place seems designed to shake us up. He'll have to deal with it.//
The words are harsh, but the tone is sympathetic. He's sharing an unfortunate truth, but he does understand how hard it is.

// Considering I had to shoot what looks like my alternate in the face, while being shot by some jet wielding Megatron--yes, I'd noticed that, // Skyfire replies drily.
// He's holding together well enough to do repairs, but I... missed something out here in the combat. Perceptor saw something that particularly upset him, even beyond Wheeljack attacking him. Something to do with Optimus Prime; he blames himself for his death. Again. If that makes sense to you... // Skyfire sounds at a loss.

//Not really. I'll try to talk to him once he gets back, if he's up for it.//
