The pirate is cut off once he feels faint tremors in the ground. Audio receptors pick up the dull booms, but just slightly. Then something akin to grinding...he thinks. "Oh, bugger."
Click, pop, frequencies fire up. //Methinks we might be 'avin' company, lads. The big, grindy ugly kind.//

//Well, 'e be undahground, methinks. Feelin' some rumblin's down below...//
A few moments, and he comes back.
//...that yellow ...what'jee call 'it, 'seeker'? It be offerin' an alliance with us against 'Ook's team. Wot say ye lot about that? I reckon we could use all the 'elp we can tae take care o' 'Ellbender. Then soon as 'e be down, frag 'em in th' back an' take their flag.//

//That's what they're called, yeah. And, well... Hellbender's a problem. But keep in mind that they'll be looking to stab us in the back, too.//

//'E did 'ave part of is proposition tae us as "'Ellbender can't touch me unless I let him, and I don't need to get in his reach to fire at 'im." Either way, once 'Ellbender is out o' commission, they be useless tae us. Fer th' time bein', I be 'eadin' fer 'Ook's flag.//

//There's a difference between keeping him distracted and taking him down,// Counterpunch snorts. //I don't think that yellow pansy's got the firepower to actually take Hellbender down.//

//Mebbe not, but bettah 'is aft on the line than ours, wouldn't ye agree?//
A few beats, and a slew of curses come over the line.
//Long, dark an' ugly done surfaced right in fraggin' front o' me! So much fer gettin' oot o' 'ere 'fore 'e showed up...//

//Hnn...took a bit o' damage. *Understatment* Still able tae fight. Can't use me 'eavy guns anymore, though. 'Ellbender seems tae 'ave retreated aftah takin' oot one o' 'is intakes. Discussing whether tae go after 'Ook's flag now, or regroup and wait fer 'Ellbender tae come back.//

//Ugghh...lad, methinks I been double-crossed...or that seeker were just plain stupid. We planned to take some liquid space-faring fuel and try to blow up 'Ook's stronghold...but th' blighter fired wrong and blew us away. I don' see 'im anywh--//
Cannonball's scans pick up something, and he scrapes some of the soot off his optic band, noticing a half of the seeker.
//...well, 'e be out of the game. Both pieces of 'im.//
