Rodimus is, in fact, not taken down by this tackle, twisting out of Shockwave's way at the last moment. "My priority is life, Shockwave. Because I'm the Matrix Bearer," and Rodimus knows these words to be true, but at the same time, not the whole story. "That Autobots do not put ourselves over the survival of others has always been a difference, but it's been a strength, not a weakness."
As Shockwave moves past him in the tackle attempt, Rodimus transforms, closing up his damaged gun-trailer and pulling himself together. "And if you think I'm going to give you another chance to shoot me in the back, you're crazier than you're implying I am!" he adds, surging forward in a sudden start, engines roaring as he drives right over Shockwave and straight into the woods, taking advantage of a rather surprising amount of off-road agility for a vehicle of his build.
With that, he starts to head up the mountain, though he doesn't take the most direct or obvious route, trying, as much as possible, to stay ahead of any active Decepticons still around.
//We're going up the mountain because that's where the egg needs to go, Bambi,// he answers over the radio, so all the Autobots can here. //Meet you up there!//
OOC: Running over of Shockwave done with permission. Out of thread. While there may be some chasing, some cat and mouse, and whatever else as the various parties split up and head up the mountain/follow each other up/etc, we're going to skip straight to them all arriving (at roughly similar times) on top in the next thread. Feel free to post your final departure from this one, though!
