Scourge is having critter trouble.
Synopsis
[edit]A distress beacon recovered in Sector 7-G of the Rigil Kentaurus system contains a message from Scourge. The Seeker ship he's on is in dire straits, needing repairs to the nav-thrusters and leaking energon into the void of space. Scourge isn't certain he's going to be able to return to Earth and the systems feedback is inconclusive. As is the distress signal which degrades into gibberish at that point.
Later, the signal is resumed. Scourge's tone is more aggravated as he refers to there being something on board. Something that's both not alive and alive at the same time. Whatever it is, it seems it came aboard when the ship made contact with a cloud of space debris. Debris that was both frozen and robotic in nature. Scourge and his Sweeps took samples. And now strange noises are emanting from the cargo bay where the samples are stored. The signal is lost again...
Only to resume later still, as a more-overtly panicked Scourge states that the stuff from the samples isn't dead. In fact it's inside the Sweeps and tearing the ship apart. Scourge requests immediate assistance. Stating that this is something new and unfamiliar. At this point, Scourge's transmission degrades into mostly gibberish once more before the transmission ends with a plaintive request to keep a door closed.
