New in Town?

The plan was farfetched and crazy, mostly just crazy. But, Silentsky did recall her mentor did always say taking risks sometimes paid off. Though, there was such a thing as crazy not actually working. So, they were taking a risk with what Silentsky was fixing to try, or more so she was taking the risk.

"Here we go then." Silentsky pulled up to fly above Spacewarp, making sure she was somewhat ahead of the larger seeker first. If anything went wrong, maybe she could have some leeway to catch herself. Maybe. Mentally preparing herself, Silentsky transformed allowed herself to drop, watching her brief descent and Spacewarp's form coming right under her. Her feet met the former captain's alternate mode, her wings flaring outward to maintain balance but the other Seeker's speed was a bit much and her foot slipped, causing Silentsky to grunt softly as she was thrown off Spacewarp and just missing in grabbing one of the tail-fins.

There was a few minutes she tumbled before Silentsky could catch herself, her thrusters kicking on at the heels and smaller ones upon her back to slow herself at last. "That could have gone better." Silentsky sighed to herself, transforming back to her alternate mode once more and shooting upwards to catch back up with Spacewarp.

Spacewarp buckled a bit as Silent hit her fueselage; she wondered if this was how cargo planes felt. The addition of more weight while she was already perfectly balanced in flight was upsetting, and the seeker very nearly lost control of herself. Just when Spacewarp thought she'd finally balanced herself out, she noticed that she'd lost her most important passenger. A quick bout of panic flooded through her, watching her companion tumble down to the planet surface.

She immediately broke off to pursue her plummeting friend as gravity did its job. Her panic faded for a moment, rationalizing that Silentsky was a capable enough flier to get out of this situation gracefully, hopefully. Spacewarp kept up pace just behind Silent, eagerly waiting for her to transform and right herself, which thankfully was rewarded. The Decepticon gave a sigh of relief as her companion caught herself in the midst of the fall, peeling off to resume their little flight. More work was needed, for sure.

"That could have gone better." Silentsky commented as she returned to flying alongside Spacewarp, surprised the femme had gone after her in her brief free fall. Anyone else likely would have kept flying, seeing if she would actually correct herself or make mental bets how long it would take before she went splat on the ground below. At least, that was what she had gotten from her time with the Decepticon forces during her time working with them. Caring for another of their kind was rather rare among their ranks, so she wasn't quite use to the concern Spacewarp seemed to display.

But, she for now let this slide to the back of her mind as she considered what they attempted. Perhaps such a plan was far too ambitious right now. "Perhaps we should stick with me just flying silently ready to defend you Spacewarp, it seems a lot less...risky than landing right on your fuselage." Silentsky spoke after a bit more silence.

[Spacewarp]

"Agreed." she replied. They'd need to learn how to fly in tandem in combat before they started up on any fancy maneuvers, anyway. Still, Spacewarp found that she could naturally fly well alongside Silent, further reinforcing her secret desire to form a squadron of her own. Again, for another day.

"I think we've had enough of attempting half-baked ideas for now; besides that, I've seen what I needed to. Nothing bad, mind you." Spacewarp added. Despite Silentsky's protesting, she had the capability to fight next to another bot instead of simply fighting alone. She attributed it to her time under that mentor of hers, but she'd never bring it up directly. In the future she'd have to make a note to ask her to go into further detail about how she joined the Decepticons, which would probably warrant some questions towards Spacewarp as well. All in all, their future together was looking bright indeed.
