[b]Carbombya: Collateral Damage[/b] Rastun leaves behind his "comrades" to fight their own battles while he looks for Brainwave and "Joe". They'd have to discuss about Joe's real nature sometime, but for now, there's a battle to be fought. He heads towards the direction where the energy signatures are at their most intense, which would undoubtedly lead him to the duo. As he travels towards them, Rastun sees and hears a large explosion in the general area he's heading to. [i]That can only be them. I'm not looking forward to see their handiwork, but I have little choice.[/i] He gave a short sigh of frustration and continues to speed towards his destination. There were the odd stray Carbombyan regiments, which Rastun promptly obliterated with his conventional weapons. The Astafanel's optic lasers were more than enough to blast through them and despite his mech's size, he's too fast for them to hit, even without taking his time manipulation into account. As he proceeds towards where Brainwave and Joe are, Rastun notices his surroundings become increasingly more war-torn the further he goes on. He then finally sees the two Cybertronians, surrounded by the utter ruin they obviously wrought. A destroyed power plant, several destroyed buildings, and a several mile road stretch completely obliterated. Rastun, looking at them with utter disbelief, says to them, "I realize we're fighting for our lives here, but you two aren't even TRYING to minimize collateral. Is restraint such a foreign concept? This sad excuse of a country may deserve this, but what we don't need is us getting caught in the fallout from this incident. "With all of that said, can we now try to locate the cult leader? Preferably without destroying several cities' worth of property on the way."
