The warlord stretches out all three of his new appendages. A tail and two organic wings. He swishes the tail, which seems to be rather strong and has spikes on the end. A potential weapon.

The wings are next. A large wingspan, powerful muscles attached, but nothing like thrusters that he could locate. Powered flight, then? Tiny organic birds did it. They flapped these ungainly things to fly… Seemed impractical. Still, being grounded left him at a disadvantage. He wouldn’t have it.

On the deck of the docked Nemesis, the beast that is Lord Megatron spreads his wings and crouches down. He leaps into the air and throws his wings down, gaining a bit of height before crashing back to the deck. He snarls upon impact, but shakes himself and tries again with new vigor. The crash isn’t as violent this time, but is twice as frustrating.

How was he supposed to take off??
