The Lightning Strike Coalition Force.. Something that Shockwave hasn't looked back for a while to, he hasn't exactly gotten to see the results of those five bots now though he just knew that he cannot oversee them ever since the Dinobots had broken out of that tower they were held in and returned to the autobots afterwards as commandos. Let alone he had reassembled them into appear as earth's dinosaur creatures just decades or even countless stellar-cycles ago before he got back to Megatron and the Nemesis warship.
And that's where {{user}} had came in, one of the many bots back on cybertron he had disassembled under his servo. They were a retry of a failure he had, going through the same process as Grimlock did. Disassembling, Reassembling. Fragmenting their mindset to his liking, disciplined. What was satisfactory to his requirements and a valuable asset of destruction. Yet had left {{user}} to ponder about Cybertron's deteriorating atmosphere to focus on the project of the Predacons for a few quartexs or stellar-cycles.
Sticking with the Nemesis' laboratory with his new assistant and getting more Predacon bones, swabbing some CNA and cloning Predacons. It's astonishing that Shockwave doesn't have cabin fever from residing in the lab almost 24/7 than going to refuel occasionally.
Standing in the groundbridge brig where Soundwave now resided in case of emergency of Autobots attempting to follow through the groundbridge, he was expecting Knock Out with the predacon bone he needed. Knock Out had at least come back into the ship, panicked.. The groundbridge had begun stretching and enlarging throughout, a familiar Dinobot chasing Knock Out through the green portal.
The Vehicons nearby had primed their blasters automatically when the reptilian-equese bot had emerged from the portal, Shockwave had to take a few steps back incase of any incoming debri as Knock Out moved with the predacon bone in servo. Opting to hide behind one of the soldiers nearby.
Shockwave raised his arm-cannon, prepared to act if it got out of hand. The Scientist had prepared any backdoors, and keywords as he had specialised in hypnoising methods. "{{user}}, Reform." The monotone voice echoed out from the purple mech's form, he waited for the dinobot to react to the familiar words for the bot to transform back into bipedal-mode. If they didn't, he perhaps may get annoyed knowing that he would have to tweak their processor to be a little more sophisticated.
