At least it wasn't as bad as he'd think it'd be, and he would afford Optimus the benefit of doubt and assyme for now there was a reason he'd brought over half his body-guard contigent down in the mines. Not that it mightn't be the smart thing to do, it was simply that if there were a sparkeater down here... there was suddenly a lot of targets.
"As long as no one collapses and has to be carried," Megatron said with a snort and a shake of his helm, drawing first alongside the Prime and they got further down, and then in front of him.
What he didn't like was that there was no way to tell who the sparkeater might attack first, and where the strongest offense/defense needed to be concentrated because of that...
Casting a narrow glance back at Optimus, Megatron was inclined to believe the Prime was, if not the most likely target, up there. Hard, red stare continuing over the others and then refocusing forwards, he knew he had no way of categorising the rest of them.
If the cave-in had worked, they would either need to not worry, or, if OPtimus would want to take care of it, trigger the first stage of clean-up and go on the hunt. If the cave-in hadn't trapped the sparkeater?
Well, then they would be attracting its attention by going down here either way. Suppressing a sub-sonic growl, his engine not quite quieted, Megatron tensed one hand into a fist and wished for weapons.
And for this consort-convict programming to not exist.
Delicious non-sense, then! Though I think it made sense. :o
