Sideswipe also aided the two, noticing Hotshot struggle. He motioned for his brother to just take one leg and part of her tail, while he took care of the other leg and aided on the wiping weapon. Spiritimus...whats' happened to you... he could only sob in his mind. "A nightmare???" Ryan questioned, looking up from Shadowflux's condition to meet Spiritimus's on the other side of the table.

Tracker responded to Spiritimus the only way he could. Sedating her could be more dangerous then not, so he used something he used when he was a bounty hunter. "hold her down, make sure she dosen't thrash around too much, i'm going to use a restraining device." he placed a device on her chest and lower area, and activated them, both produced a blue band of energy restricting her movements. Tracker shook his head he could not help but feel he was interfeing too much. "sorry if i'm interfering too much, but it was the only i thing i could think of to stop her from hurting herself and others." he looks at Spirit still thrashing a bit "those bands won't hurt."

Scavenger had her shoulders firmly held down to the table, not having a bit of trouble keeping the femme restrained.
"It might be mental trauma." he grunted softly, "It would be a good idea to put her near Optimus. Hopefully it'll calm her a little."

Moonshriek moved back to Rodimus's shoulder once Spirit was restrained. She looked at the bands with a strange expression, one usually not seen on either human or bat. She shook her head, as if shaking away a bad thought, and settled into a more comfortable position on Rodimus's shoulder. She looked to him, her eyes holding a small trace of fear. "I....need to get some fresh air. I'll be outside if anyone needs me." she murmured, gliding out of the room, almost seeming to be flying at full speed.

Ryan simply nodded when other possibilities of Spiritimus's actions. Looking back at Sideswipe, he watched the young mech take his grip from her leg and tail, and go back to aiding Talon. Himself, he began his watch on Shadowflux yet again. The small blue meter continued to bounce up and down, sizing his spark. At least he knew that it was just outside-armor injury.

Rodimus turned to Moonshriek and he watched her fly out. "I'll come with you once I'm finished up here," he managed to call out to her. He frowned as he watched Tracker place those bands on Spiritimus's legs. It terrified him to see her like this, but he knew that it was the only way to keep her calm until they had figured a way how to calm her down. But while thinking, she would be suffering even more. He then turned to Scavenger when he suggested the possibilities and nodded in agreement. "It's possible, but I don't know about that. I haven't seen her act like this before, and it could be only a matter of time before it happens again." He motioned to Hotshot to come towards him. When he approached he motioned to the light blue and silver mech to give him a hand in moving the femme next to Optimus in the hopes of keeping her calm and perhaps turn down her unusual actions. Together, they carefully lifted her trembling form and placed her on a berth that was next to Optimus's right. Once she was secure, they watched in amazement as she calmed down just a little. However, he mentally asked himself if it was enough. Shaking his head, Rodimus sighed and turned to walk the room in the hopes of wanting to catch up with Moonshriek. He needed her company and she possibly wanted his as well. Even as she had left, he somehow felt empty inside his Spark. He stopped and turned back to everyone else. "If anyone else needs me, I'll be with Moonshriek. Ultra Magnus may still be hanging around the base somewhere and I need to make sure that he doesn't wander off." Without waiting for any further acknowledgement, he was out the door.
Optimus gently lifted a hand and placed it on the side of her face plate, stroking it softly with his fingers. He had never seen her act like this before. He had a feeling that she was hiding something and that only her trusted and closest friends, Leohawk and Starblaze, knew about. He could never shake the feeling that something was going on, and this made him determined to find out what it was that would make her so... distant and mentally afraid. Could it... he thought, Could this have something to do with those few nightmares I have been having while floating through space? Seeing a creature that I have never even seen before? He shook his head in confusion. Something must've happened to her while he was lying half dead in the endless dark with only the stars and nearby planets to keep him company? Was there something else she wasn't telling him? "Scavenger," he said to his old teacher, "I know that Spiritimus is trying to hide something from me, but I need you to go and get Leohawk and Starblaze. Those two are the only ones who know what happened to her. Can you do that for me, old friend?"

"Of course, sir." Scavenger nodded respectfully then turned to leave. However, he did spare a small, worried glance at Talon before quietly walking out through the medbay entrance.

Through all this Cypher remained asleep, twitching every now and then because of his nightmares. every now and then he'd open his eyes looking around for brief seconds, he'd see blurry shapes around him, and a bot over him, the medbays lights, all of this merging with his nightmares making them more vivid and real. he moaned whenever he did so.

The bot over him was tracker, now that Prime was dealt with and spiritmus was restrained and calmed a bit, he focused on the other bots. the dark bot that he was working was had taken damage, he wondered how this had happened. he also wondered about his constant twitching, from the nightmares. he shook his head "what a day."

Optimus smiled warmly as Scavenger left to go and find Leohawk and Starblaze. "Thank you, old friend," he as Scavenger left the room. He knew enough to know that Spiritimus had entrusted her secret to the two, and only them, because she had known them a lot longer than he had known them. Regardless, he had a feeling that Leohawk, his setup bodyguard of his daughter, will explain it to him instead of Starblaze. The large femme did not like to share things unless it was necessary. This was necessary, but her loyalty and friendship with the blue and silver femme was unquestionable, and he couldn't have asked for anything better.
Hotshot glanced over at Tracker and smiled in a friendly manner at his comment. He may not know Tracker, but he owed him that much for saving Prime's life. If it hadn't been for his act of kindness towards the Autobot leader when he was on the brink of death, Prime wouldn't be lying here on the berth while stroking Spiritimus in his usual fatherly manner that often gave him confidence in himself. "You and me both, Tracker," he said jokingly, trying to lighten the mood up a bit. He turned his back to Sideswipe. He was worried about Shadowflux, but he had a feeling that he was going to be alright. Right now, his main concern was with Spiritimus's condition and why she had been plagued with nightmares just a short while ago. He even wondered where Rodimus Prime and Moonshriek had gotten to, including Ultra Magnus. Obviously Optimus's brother was hanging around the base and was only hiding just to avoid social contact with everyone else until he was properly needed.

Monitoring his status, Ryan continued to sit in a bored manner, head propped in his hands as he sat indian style. That is, until his eyes sparkled. The small blue line was creating even larger jumps. A normal spark beat. "Shadow!" he cheered. Sideswipe peered over his shoulder, only to see the blue mech wincing his optics as he had came to. "R--Ryan?" the bot asked weakly. Sideswipe managed to scoot past the other bots and reach Shadowflux's side. A small smile appeared. "You had Ryan worried. Welcome back, Shadow" the young bot grinned. Shadowflux only smiled back, trying to maneuver his hand and seeing if his energon circulation was back on track. Turning his head in both directions to view that everyone, or almost everyone was back and in safety, he spotted Optimus aside Spiritimus. "Optimus..? I wish our greeting was more under a different circumstance but... Reporting for duty, Sir.." Shadowflux chuckled. He eyed Spiritimus slightly, "How is Lady Spiritimus's condition?"

Scavenger entered with Leohawk and Starblaze with him. He politely motioned for them to wait until Shadowflux was finished talking. After a while he excused himself to look over Talon, but saw that she was in a coma. Her state wasn't particularly dangerous, but it will be a while before she wakes up.

Optimus couldn't help but emit a chuckle at the young 'bot. He had not seen a loyal warrior in quite a long while, especially one that was almost as loyal as Leohawk. He understood why she was considered to be so well loved by those that knew her, but she still knew them better than she knew herself. "At ease, Shadowflux," he said, trying to hide his laughter to prevent more hurt, "I am out of commission until my self-repair systems can finish off what Sideswipe started. Rodimus Prime is in charge until further notice." When he noticed Shadowflux's gaze shift from him over to Spiritimus, he soon realised that his concern for her ran much deeper than he'd thought. "As far as I can tell, not very good. She's been having unusual nightmares for the past few minutes, and it's getting me worried about the reason behind them. I have a feeling that something had happened to her while she was looking for me. And the only ones who will offer a proper explanation are Leohawk and Starblaze."

Shadowflux only switched his gaze to view the ceiling yet again. Optimus's words- they brought bad news, but just to hear the commander speak- it was soothing. "Shes' a brave, strong warrior, trained after her father. I'm sure whatever the case, she will get through. She knows' your here Sir..." he moved his optics back to view Optimus, "Thats' enough to get her spark through." He had hoped his words helped Optimus's worry, as he fully knew that he, of all people, were worried the most. Turning back to Ryan who only stared back with a smile, he only grinned at his optics, signaturing that he was okay.

Optimus nodded, glad of Shadowflux's kind words towards the young femme. It would only be a matter of hours before Spiritimus would be back up and running again and he would have a chance of catching up with her when he found the time to do so. "Yes," he said in agreement, "she has potential of becoming a true leader. She has been well aware of my unconscious form during the whole year of my absence. Even though she was called back here, she did not give up on her search to find me. I couldn't have asked for a better daughter." Gently, he stroked her cheek and he could've sworn that she was sighing in content to his soothing touch, despite the injuries she had suffered greatly from her fight with Megatron. "She is all that I have left... If anything happened to her... I would lose all trace of hope I have left in my existence." He shook his head and smiled as he watched Shadowflux and Ryan interact with each other mentally. Somehow, he could feel a strong connection going on between them, perhaps stronger than the growing bond that was happening between Rodimus Prime and Moonshriek. "You two are something special," he said to the both of them, nodding slowly. "Make sure you look out for each other, for many dangers lie ahead of you and us. The bond you two share is what keeps you close and makes you both strong and weak. Use that to your advantage when the situation becomes dire. Both your heart and your Spark will never fail you. Cherish this friendship for as long as you live. It is what has kept us going for so long. It has also been the only thing that has kept us seperate from the Decepticons; our friendship and devotion to each other. Do not forget that, young ones, and you will go further than you could have ever dreamed of." Sighing when he realised that Leohawk Starblaze had finally walked in alongside Scavenger, he knew that it was time to get down to business. Almost invisibly, he motioned to the two to come him.
Noticing Optimus calling them, both Leohawk and Starblaze approached the Autobot Commander and stood beside his recharge berth. They both knew what he was going to ask of them and the reasons behind Spiritimus's sudden seizure that had filled the protective father with so much worry that he had almost believed that she was suffering from something that she may have caught while on her journey through space to find him. But that was not the case. The connection with Spiritimus Prime and Optimus Prime had been opened to the beast that gave Spiritimus her nightmares whenever he experienced raw emotions that were bent on negativity and aggression, and they were both well aware of this because she had shared that secret with them and them alone. Starblaze was aware that Leohawk had been corned by Ryan and Hotshot in order to find out why she was so distant and cold towards everyone. The golden mech had had little choice in the matter but it had been wise of him to disobey Her Ladyship because it was necessary for him. He had entrusted them with that secret until Spiritimus felt ready or until Optimus demanded that they had explained what was really wrong with her. The choice had been a very good one and they seemed to have kept their end of the bargain. Now, it was time to reveal the reason to everyone about the sudden change in their femme commander and her unusual seizures.
"I think," said Optimus as he kept a hand placed on Spiritimus's cheek while stroking it in a gentle manner with his index finger, probably as a way to keep himself calm while preparing himself for the worst should it be, "that it is time that you told me what had happened right from when it began. Start from the beginning please. But also, a word of advise, take it slowly. I don't expect you to tell me everything all in one sentence." He chuckled a little in an attempt to try and ease off the tension that was starting to swell beneath everyone's metal armour.
