Elita-1 and Blackarachnia are both knocked out due to whatever weird paradox nonsense is going on between the two of them, and Dinobot still hasn't gotten to lay the glorious smackdown of battle on anyone. To top it all off, Needlenose is retreating! "Come back and fight, coward!" he shouts, but he doubts he can catch the Decepticon flier.
And as Guzzle says, one of their comrades is injured. Also she has stingers now, apparently. "Not me. Any of the rest of you?"

Glyph emerges from the entryway, peeking around to make sure it's safe before trotting out. "I do not have any medical skills..." She transforms her stinger back to a hand, and winces at the scene at large. "Pair of veQ-nuj nuchs" she mutters, glaring toward the retreating 'Cons.

Jetstorm continues twitching for a bit before he finally comes to rest - smoke leaks out of a few joints, as Zig-Zag's blast fried his circuits up something awful. He won't be waking up for a while, but he's not dead.
-----
OOC: And Jetstorm now tags Glyph to become the skippable one since he is now KO'd.

Jetfire lets out an anguished shout and sends a massive blast of of fire after the fleeing Decepticons. He wants nothing more than to chase after them and kick the skidplate of the Decepticon who hurt his brother and then deal with the one who hurt Sentinel after she woke up. But the ground beneath his feet is starting to char, and instead of going out the flames from his hands are spreading up to his shoulders, and he's worried that if he doesn't get his temper and his powers under control now, he's not going to be able to at all, and this time Jetstorm doesn't look like he'll be getting up any time soon to help him.
So instead of going to reap some burning justice, he just flops onto the ground with a groan and lets his head hang between his knees, cycling air heavily through his vents in an attempt to cool down. Think calming thoughts, Jetfire, think calming thoughts.

One fallen Decepticon and two fallen Autobots? Well, looks like the 'Cons came out slightly more ahead, and fortunately, the time spent tending their wounded is the time Needlenose needs to escape. Remembering the path they took going down the tunnels, Needlenose speeds his way back up, flying as fast as he dare with his anti-gravs as he carries Blackarachnia. It's only a few moments later that he comes bursting out, the sky as his goal...
But what of the Maximal who stayed behind to stand guard?
OOC: Remaining in the thread one more round to give Ramulus time to react.

Two down, great. This certainly went to hell at a neckbreak pace. Guzzle checks on Elita-1, making sure she's alive before rushing over to Jetstorm, kneeling down and giving him a good, but brief shake. "Kid, can you hear me?" Just to be safe he puts through a call, too. He just hopes the others can get here soon.

"They're honorless cowards is what they are," Dinobot says to Glyph. "They strike from ambush and then flee when the battle turns against them. They'd best hope we don't meet again."
He crouches down next to Elita-1, making sure she at least isn't leaking fuel.

As Needlenose exits loudly, several flocks of birds fly from the trees. But that is about all that happens....
Hidden in the bushes, Ramulus watches the Decepticon go, recognising him from the records. Given the reputation of this particular 'Con, his apparant state of health and his airborne ability, the hidden Maximal surmisses that attacking this one right now wouldn't be putting himself in the advantage. Oh, and bring more risk to those still in the temple.
Ramulus waits patiently untill the Decepticon has made his leave.
OOC: Gracias for making the wait!

Elita-1 is pretty banged up, between the fall and the fight, but she isn't actually leaking fluid from anywhere. She is, however, out cold; it may take a forced reboot to wake her actually, something better left to actual medics.
Her borrowed stingers have faded away.
OOC: Still skippable. You guys have permission to handle Elita as needed to get her back to the EH.

Glyph looks over at Dinobot, a wry expression on her face. "Pretty much what I said..."
Carefully, she moves over to Elita-1. "Some field trip this turned out to be, huh?"
Jetstorm doesn't respond to Guzzle in the slightest.

Flames subsiding, Jetfire straightens up slightly, frowning at Jetstorm and Guzzle. "He is still alive, just knocked out, I think." At least he hopes that's all that is wrong. Don't you dare go grey on him, brother!
Shifting into a kneeling position by Jetstorm, he moves to pick him up. Jetfire is still hot to the touch, but not enough to hurt another Transformer. "We are best getting injured to nearest city soon as possible."

And Needlenose makes it away! He never even sees the Ramulus hiding in the bushes.
OOC: Out of thread, though someone might want to release poor ol' Cuerva!

Guzzle moves his hand down from his helmet, giving Jetfire a quick nod before looking from Jetstorm to Elita-1 and back again. "Okay, let's go find a way to transport them! Where's that fraggin' guide? Maybe if we say sorry real nice like he'll help us."

Work towards a wrap?

"Why should we apologize? We did what was prudent at the time," Dinobot responds as he sets off to look for Cuerva. He finally finds the reptiloid huddling in a corner with his head between his knees.
"Get up! We need you to lead us back out of here," the raptor commands.
"Wh- you again!? Is it over?" the local guide responds.
"The shooting's stopped, if that's what you mean, but we have injured and we need you to show us the way out. Or is the tour not a round trip?" Dinobot snarls.
Cuerva gives a weak, please-don't-hurt-me smile. "Eheh, sure. Round trip. Right this way . . ."
OOC: Posing of Cuerva with Scenemod permission.

Glyph gives Guzzle a nod at his suggestion, and then goes about to trying to lift Elita-1 by the shoulders. However, Elita-1 is taller, and Glyph is kind of a wuss.
"Erm, Guzzle? Dinobot? Could one of you lend me a servo, please..?"

OOC: Wrapping up is good with me!
