An incoming freighter passed above the sureal stand-off. On the SDS MJ Ganymede's bridge Blunt frowned at landing monitors and saw a hyena holding a lion maximal hostage.

"I'm not going to miss my deadline because of a few brawling furballs," he swore. The docking computer uplink had already disabled the shuttle's weapons systems, but there was nothing Blunt could reasonably use to break the situation up below without the kidnapper and hostage getting taken down to custody on spatulas.

The freighter came to a rest a few lanes away behind the situation and an exit ramp cranked open, revealing the disgrunted looking Autobot with a grenade launcher in hand.

The light glinted off Blunt's optics as set the launch power to 'maximum velocity and raised the stubby weapon, taking aim at the back of Iago's head across the distance. One of the Autobot security force looked around as the barrel came up level with the wielder's line of sight and started to shout a warning.

*THUNK*

An empty grenade shell hit the knife wielding pretender in the back of the head, stunning the transformer into dropping his blade. Blunt started down the freighter's ramp and the grenade barrel rotated to a fresh chamber.

"Now you're probably wondering if the next round is also a blank," he growled. "Make another move and you'll find out..."
