SOLLUX FLIES AROUND WITH CORPSES

Who: Sollux and Breakdown MEGATRON IS HERE TOO
Where: Mojave party desert
When: March 13th I guess
What: Sollux finds some corpses and flies around with them. Also, he hooks up with Breakdown and finds out Knock Out has been captured.
Warnings: You can probably guess what might go wrong here. It begins with the base premise.

This isn't something Sollux can just ignored. Whether he intends on keeping his powers secret or not, he's not going to leave anyone to any fate even resembling the one that he personally suffered, not if he has the power to stop it.

And fuck if he ever has power. He'd almost forgotten, after long months imprisoned and even more kept on CONDOR's leash. But out here, in the desert, where he can fly free with minimal fear of repercussion and exploit his abilities to actually make a difference...

Well, he actually feels kind of good about himself, for the first time in a while.

He senses deaths nearby, and he has for a while. But it takes a lot of searching to finally find any evidence. He finds the animal corpses - ones he's heard similar reports of, appearing in the night. Earth mammals with limbs and facial features hideously cut from their bodies. They are pretty gross to look at, like someone's butchered lusus, but he figured that someone out there has to have some use for them.

He picks a few of them up with him, and casually takes them along. Their weight means pretty much nothing, even if the sight is kind of a spectacle.

He's not sure what to do.

Sure, he could report this to Megatron — and should, and will, eventually — but he feels pretty sure he knows what Megatron's answer would be. Knock Out was weak enough to get himself kidnapped, so he deserves whatever it is they're doing to him. His engine revs furiously at the thought of that, though — it's not an option to just leave him to it.

But then on the other hand... what else can can be done? He has no idea where they took Knock Out, and driving in circles through the desert isn't really getting him too far.

Not that that stops him. He drives on mindlessly, seeking anything that seems out of place, any kind of tell that there might be some kind of facility nearby. Anything.
