"Very well then!" Knock Out replied as he side stepped around Ratchet and went to the space bridge controls and began to calculate what frequencies Starscream was using. "This may take a little bit..." Knock Out said as he went to work.
All Smokescreen could do at that point was just idly stand there until they were ready to depart.
((I'm sorry, this RP is moving too slowly for me and I don't have much to work with/off of...))

"Guess ah'll go with ya."Roadkill said. "A little added protection."He added. Thankfully no one on the Dreadnaught thought to change any codes, and they'd be able to ground bridge directly onto the ship. "Alright, fire up the Ground bridge and we'll be off."Roadkill said.
"There!" Knock Out said as he finished the space bridge's alignment. "We have a small window of time before their scrambler systems come back online." Knock Out explained before pushing the lever to activate the bridge.
Both he and Smokescreen shifted into their alt forms and revved there engines, "You're welcome to tag along," Smokescreen said to Roadkill. "Just try and keep up!" the white sports car said as he sped into the vortex with Knock Out close behind.

Roadkill shifted into vehicle mode and followed. The trio soon came out aboard the Nemesis with the space bridge closing after them. "Alright, let's keep quiet. And what're we looking for again?"Roadkill asked.
Soon the buzzing of wings echoed through the halls. Waspinator was put on monitor duty, and was told by Blackarachnia to go and tell Starscream that she picked up a ground bridge signature opening on the ship. Waspinator was doing as instructed, until he noticed Knockout down a hall he passed. He stopped and flew back, before shifting into Robot mode. "Fancy-bot!"He announced barreling at Knock-out and tackling him, giving him a strong bear hug. "Waspinator not see you in forever!"He announced happily.
Oop: Don't have Smokescreen attack, I've got an idea.

((Don't worry, I wasn't... 
))
As soon as the exited the portal both Knock Out and Smokescreen shifted out of alt mode, Smokescreen with his blasters ready and Knock Out with his saw blade. Smokescreen looked around the dark hallway this way and that. "Sounds like a plan Roadkill, now we just have to... Scrap someone is coming!" Smokescreen said as he heard a buzzing sound approaching. He readied his blaster and aimed at the Insecticon that was approaching, but he didn't fire yet - good thing too!
Knock Out definitely felt the bot tackle him, though it was more like a hug if he had to be honest. "GAH! Um... Yes, it is I. Knock Out. Good to see you again Waspinator, its been... What a few centuries? Maybe?" Knock Out said with his classic clueless charm. He did not remember Waspinator at all but if playing a role got them closer to their target then play the role he would.
"You were undoubtedly sent to welcome me, I have brought Autobot prisoners. If you'd be so kind as to show me where to detain them that would be most helpful of you!" Knock Out went to to say. He said it in a way that Smokescreen would catch on and go along with things.
"Oh dang, we have been captured. Please spare us." Smokescreen said as he put his blasters behind his back before Waspinator saw them, he nudged for Roadkill to play along.

Oop: Aright, and Waspinator is actually several times larger than Knock out
"Waspinator sat Knockout down and glanced at Smokescreen, before looking at Roadkill, who had a confused look on his face. "Uh... Okay, Waspinator go tell Lord Star-Bot!"Waspinator said. "Uh, actually, if ya surprise him he might give you a promotion!"Roadkill said, only barely having any idea what was going on, and trying his best to play along with Smokescreen and Knockout. Waspiantor thought for a moment. "Hmmm...... Okay, Waspinator do that."Wapsinator said. "Fancy-bot, follow Waspinator!"Waspinator said, heading towards the prison bay.

((Thanks for the heads up, I edited!))
Knock Out looked himself over as he usually did when other bots touched his exterior, "Great, yes... Show us the way..." Knock Out said as he examined the full extent of damage to his finish that Waspinator had done with that hug. "And if its not too much to as I'll need some wax and a buffer." Knock Out half asked / half complained.
Smokescreen leaned in close as they began to walk down the hallway towards wherever Waspinator was leading them, "Nicely handled, this rescue should go a lot more smoothly now!" Smokescreen whispered so that Waspinator wouldn't hear.
"Yes. If only it hadn't cost me so many scuffs and dings." Knock Out replied in a hushed tone.

Oop: NP, and just so you have a basic image of Waspinator, he's got his TFA colors, and his head in robot and bug mode is similar to the TFA version as well. Aside from that, he has relatively standard Insecticon proportions, build, and posture. The Primary differences between him and the average insecticon(beyond his head and colors) is the presence of functional wings in Robot mode, his bug mode's face being on his chest, and still having his abdomen.
"Could you tell me what's going on exactly?"Roadkill asked Knock Out quietly. Waspinator continued down the Cooridors until he came to the Prison cells. He opened one up and had Smokescreen and Roadkill put into the cells. "When can Wapsinator tell Lord Star-bot about Autobot prisoners?"Waspiantor asked.

(Good to know, THANKS!!!)
Smokescreen slowed his pace to match Roadkill's before they were shoved into the cage and answered in a hushed tone, "We are trying to rescue Miko's friend, right? If they took her hostage anywhere then we can assume they took her here first if she isn't still here." Smokescreen replied to Roadkill's question.
Meanwhile Knock Out did his best to distract the insecticon, "Allow me, besides you've already done so much for our cause. Why not enjoy the rest of the day buzzing through the skies, I've heard from Starscream himself that it can be very invigorating." Knock Out suggested. "By the way, have you captured any other prisoners lately? I'm sure they're keeping you pretty busy." Knock Out went on, he was trying to both keep the insecticon busy with thought and conversation - two things they weren't terribly good at to begin with.

Fortunately for Knock Out, Wapsinator was probably worse at thinking than most insecticons were. "Uh.... Waspinator not Prison guard. That's Police-bot's job."Waspinator replied.
Oop: Sorry for the short response, didn't know what else to say DX
Oop: Sorry for the short response, didn't know what else to say DX
"I see, well would you know where they would be kept? Somewhere around here perhaps?" Knock Out suggested, he didn't want anyone else besides Waspinator to deal with right now. Knock Out would motion for Waspinator to show the way, he trusted that the Insecticon knew the ship and how to navigate through it.
((You give me one and I'll give you one! That's my deal...~))
((You give me one and I'll give you one! That's my deal...~

"Prisonners kept here."Waspinator said. Waspinator said. "Why? Fancy-bot looking for somebot?"Waspinator asked.
"You could say that. I heard chatter that we recently acquired a difficult to obtain sample of this planet, a human." Knock Out replied casually.
"I would love to see how well they... Stress test!" he went on to say as his hand was replaced by a circular saw that he revved to show what he meant by stress test. He wasn't really going to hurt the poor girl, but he would be doing some recon as he kept Waspinator distracted. He hoped Smokescreen and Roadkill would take the opportunity to find an escape for them once they were ready to rescue the girl.

Waspinator scratched his head. "But Lord Star-bot say we need to keep human alive..."Waspinator said. "And Buzz-bot in charge of sciencey thingies."Waspinator added. "Waspinator can introduce Fancy-bot to Buzz-bot?"Waspinator offered in an exited tone.
"Oh I won't kill the little beast, just... examine it more closely." Knock Out said with a wink of his optic. "Ehm, who is 'Buzz-bot'?" Knock Out said, he was quickly finding it more difficult to hold a conversation with the insecticon.
"Buzz-bot's head science bot on Dreadnaught. He tells every other science bot what to do. Waspinator can introduce Fancy-bot and Buzz-bot?"Waspinator offered again. "Waspinator?"A voice called, as a door sound was heard opening. Soon Barricade entered the room. "Waspinator, Blackarachnias needing you back at your station."Barricade said before noticing Knock Out. He almost immediately recognized the medic, having seen several wanted posters Starscream had put out once the decepticons were reformed. Though, he kept his recognition hidden. "who is this? I don't believe I've met them yet."Barricade said. "Oh, Police-bot, this is Fancy-bot!"Waspinator announced. "Fancy-bot? What's your actual name? I can never tell who he's referring to by the nick names."Barricade said, looking over at Knock Out.
"Maybe later. I'm more interested in..." Knock Out began to respond before noticing a new bot entering the detention area. The new guy had his attention on Waspinator before it was shifted over to Knock Out.
"I am Knock Out, I was the chief medical officer for Megatron himself." Knock Out replied jovially. He didn't want to appear nervous around this new guy or he might be made out a fraud right then and there, so he did the natural thing and played it off - he could still lie like a Decepticon when he needed to. Tell a truth and follow it up with an outright lie. "I just came aboard when I heard chatter about a human capture. I figured I could get some study in on their physiology. Perhaps even think up of some new methods of medical practice based upon my studies." Knock Out went on to say as he silently primed the tool known as the Immobilizer hidden beneath his forearm's exterior plating. He had had himself outfitted with it in case of emergencies - and this could quickly turn into one.
"And I don't believe I caught your name either." Knock Out said with a innocent smile, he was stalling as the Immobilizer warmed up.
Nearby inside the prison cell...
"Scrap, is that Barricade? This is bad..." Smokescreen said in hushed tones. He remembered this Decepticon from back during the war days, he knew that this guy would be bad news.

"Eh, could be worse."Roadkill responded quietly. "Ah knew a con named Lugnut, heh, the Bootleg woulda scrapped me if he weren't such an idiot. Could topple buildings with a single punch. Coulda been him instead."Roadkill said optimistically."Barricade."Barricade responded. "If you're looking for the human you'll find it in the primary lab. I assume you know the way there. Waspiantor, as I said, return to your post with Blackarachnia. You know how willing she is to let her scraplets feed."Barricade said. "Now, if you two don't mind, I wish to check up on of of my personal trophies. I think he may need to be fed."Barricade said, heading off elsewhere in the prison deck.
Oop: I got an idea for a dino-bot to have on Earth.
