Some time after launch...
Some of the other Decepticon's may have seen, posted up in strategic locations, a notice about ship to ship combat training that will be held on this day, at this time, in this holo room. It didn't say who was hosting it, but it did say it was going to be a mock battle training. Specifically, mock battle training for ship to ship to ship combat, in the likely event they run into the Autobots, or some Alien death Pirates bent on devouring their laser cores. Or something.
Not to say all the Sci-Fi Blitzwing reads has given him any ideas on the matter.
Blitzwing stands in the Holo chamber, already activated and programmed, having been set so that he and only he (Assuming no interference from a hacker.) may control any changes made to the sim.
He stands in what appears to be a briefing room, next to a slide projector, and those that join will find themselves, in some position facing him. For those that care, he has a generals baton under one arm and a comically large peaked cap on his head.
______________________________________
Anyone may join, Blitzwing will make things harder the more Decepticons join/ the more successful they are.
Note: Not just for those that can fly, ground pounders welcome.

Well one thing about combat training that is a constant; you are guaranteed destruction and a lot of noise. Wildrider is in.
His engine roars angrily as he makes his way to the holo chamber, racing down corridors that were not meant to be driven through. So of course, a couple of things might get knocked over on the way. And wouldn't that be a shame.
"HA HA HAAA! WOO!!"

"Wildrider, you're getting slow," Dead End drawls. How did he get here already? He read the poster and showed up early, not wanting to be the guy left peering over the crowd from out in the hall.
"We really need to get you back into practice. Assuming the ship doesn't explode leaving us all stranded in space to slowly starve, first."

Ship to Ship combat training. Wicked.
"Or assuming we don't explode with it" Mistwind stacks as he steps in and walks straight to the other side of the room, standing there with arms readily at the sides. No grins, no smiles, no banter no play. Ok, so maybe some banter.

"Ah, the first of the fodder appears to be arriving. They'll need to be more for success though." Blitzwing says, turning sharply to his right and pacing to the other end of the projector screen.
And its true, Blitzwing isn't going to make this a cake walk. He fully expects a few of them to be holographic debris by the end of this.

"Man, whatever." Wildrider passively-aggressively snaps at his brother as he transforms. It's not about winning the race, it's about getting the maximum hi-score before you pass the finish line.
Wildrider shrugs at Blitzwing. "Oooh, scare me some more. You gonna talk us to death, Blitzwing, or do you have something planned?"

And a volunteer, soon-to-be-holographic-debris, appears!
It was either this or picking out every piece of dirt off her platings, and since the latter was already done Skystrike takes the time to show up, looking unusually shiny and maybe a tad disgruntled. A space battle sim was certainly a more productive activity than self grooming anyways, even if there'd been a rather alarming amount of dirt in her systems.
The seeker gives a brief, general greeting before moving to stand vaguely near the other arrivals. After giving Blitzwing's headgear a look, of course.

"No, Wildrider, he just called us all here to stand around in a big, empty room," Dead End replies. "Hopefully the scenario will require you to use stealth to sneak in completely silently."
Dead End looks at Blitzwing and says in a bored tone, "Let me guess, we get Grimlock?"

Mistwind beams! Otherwise remaining silently waiting, he savors the promotion from nothing, to fodder!

Duskwing wanders in a bit later. "I thought dis was in the other room," he protests. "So, whadda we gonna do here, Blitzer?"
His expression brightens on seeing Mistwind. "Heya, kid!"

"Okay, now that enough people are here, we can begin." Blitzwing says, reaching up and brushing the peaked cap off his head.
"The scenario is simple." Blitzwing says as a slide clicks onto projector screen. "We meet the Autobots while in space, as we may do in actuality. Back home, I knew which fliers I could expect to not get turned into space dust, which grounders I could trust to assault worth a damn and which transports would actually get their cargo into the fight before the fight had ended."
"Here, I either never had the chance to serve with you, you never existed, or perhaps you've gone rusty since you've been here." Blitzwing says as he slaps the projector screen with his baton, which presents each of the three points as he says it.
"As such, I set this up, to see which of you I can trust and which of you I should think long and hard about booting into space so I never have to fall foul of your incompetence." He continues, leaning back against the wall as the projector brings up two images, one of a chibi Seeker standing valiantly against a hail of incoming fire and another showing chibi Blitzwing booting the seeker out an airlock.
"Now, before I elaborate further, are there any questions?"

Dead End's attempt at sarcasm to Wildrider's obviously rhetoric taunt is met with a hand swinging upside his head, meant to slap him.
At question time, Wildrider points at the screen. "Why did you draw yourself all small with a big head?"

Arriving on time means nothing when you're the Emperor! Starscream is also amused at the picture of the Seeker. There are only a few of those on board, Starscream wonders exactly which Seeker Blitzwing has shown himself kicking off board.
Starscream takes a spot to the back of the presentation to hear the rest of the instructions, folds his arms, and listens with a subdued curiosity.

So, tick off Blitzwing and get kicked out the airlock. Skystrike cycles her optics in a slow blink at the chibis however, and idly wonders if Blitzwing made the diagrams himself.

Wildrider predictably spangs Dead End on the back of his head, Gibbs-style; he could have dodged it, but it was so very nice to have one of his brothers around that he didn't have to heart to try. Instead, he twists and swings a fist at Wildrider's mid-section; also a predictable part of their routine.
"We're still going to get Grimlock, I bet."
He wonders idly how long the two of them can tussle without Motormaster around to break it up...
