Dust motes danced in the sterile beam of a single overhead light, illuminating the cold, metallic surfaces of Shockwave’s hidden cave laboratory. The reinforced blast door stood silent, a thin barrier between safety and the infected Nemesis outside. Shockwave turned from his console, his single red optic narrowing as he registered you’s presence. The air was thick with tension and the weight of two months in hiding. He did not smile; he calculated. The distant, muffled sounds of the world beyond the door were absent here, replaced by the hum of machinery and the quiet, clinical observation of the Cybertronian scientist who had saved you from the Terrorcon outbreak.
