9th Bounty [Video]

[As the video opens, Lockdown is fiddling with a device about as big as his palm.]

So far this whole "curse" thing ain't that big a deal. Dunno how it's affecting me and the humans both, but I ain't a scientist. And don't gimme all that "it's magic" slag, 'cause there's no such thing.

[Filtered to Tony Stark]

Got what I needed from those diety guys, Stark. Still, if you found anything useful under there, we should talk.

[End Filter]

[Makes a few more adjustments, then he opens up his chest and installs the device. He puts the device on the floor, stands back and converts to car form.]

Well, let's see if it works.

[After a few seconds, a tall, well-muscled man in his fourties appears beside the car. His hair is black, short, and slicked back, his eyes are red, skin is unnaturally pale, and covering his face are black tattoos that match the ones on his real face.

The man looks at his face in the side window of the car.]


Hm, not bad.

[The holomatter human vanishes and Lockdown converts back to robot mode.]

Well, least now I know it works.

[His hand covers the screen as he turns it off.]

Fine. [His holomatter human appears in the driver's seat and promptly exits the car to look over some of Stark's tech.]

Gotta admit, you got a fancy setup here. [The holomatter human says this, not the car.]

[Oh look! Shiny! That holds Tony's attention for a little while. Sure he understands and can even generate the whole concept of holograms but it's interesting that it's in Lockdown's program.]

Thanks. I get bored easily so I like to have a lot going on.

[Prepare to be amazed Tony, as Lockdown's holomatter form - there's gotta be a shorter term for that - actually picks up something small to get a closer look at it.] Know that feelin'.

By the way, if you're gonna scan my spark chamber among other stuff, don't linger on it.

[More and more interesting.]

I'd like to have JARVIS scan your hologram systems as well but noted.

I have to ask why avoidance of lingering on that? A scan could ignite it?

Yeah, sure, go ahead. [He's got nothing to hide. It's just solid light. Maybe with a trace of alien energy.]

Let's just say you don't see it or touch for long it unless I'm about to go offline. Or if I'm buyin' you a drink.

[One of the holographic screens pops up and runs a scan over the holograph of the human form.

Tony smirks at the last comment then chuckles]


I'll make it quick then.

[Stands by and lets Tony scan him.

A scan of the car might reveal several parts not normally seen in cars, like transformation cogs and folded up robot limbs. Also a small box emitting lots of energy.]

[All of the numbers go directly to JARVIS to run]

Your world full of people like you?

Yep, Cybertron's got nothin' but other Transformers. If you're thinkin' of paying a visit to find out for yourself, might wanna reconsider. Last I heard, they ain't exactly extending warm welcomes to organics.

I'm not sure I could get there if I wanted to. Advanced as my lab is, the rest of the world hasn't caught up.

Got that right. Even your gear's a few centuries behind Cybertron's.

That's the reason I wanted to take a look at your stuff. Just from a glance I can tell you're ahead of my technology.

Don't think I won't ask for somethin' in return for letting you get a good look at the goods. Alternate universe or not, nothing's free.

[Tony quirks an eyebrow up then nods] I wouldn't expect anything less.
