"What the hell do you mean Solis can produce stellar cores!?!" Esmond couldn't help but yell at Carter who was smuggled sprawled out across some of the desks, chewing on some fruit.
"Well… yeah…
Do you know much of a motherfucking genius I have become!
You should honestly… kiss my feet… since I'm awesome!"
Carter just smiled, teasing Esmond further while the rest of the scientists watched on with an expression of understanding, having experienced their own issues with siblings.
However, they were glad to see the relationship between Esmond and Carter was close, even if it was mostly abuse and harassment of one another.
.
"*Sigh* Solis, the star currently in the Star System of the space, can easily generate stellar cores to my surprise.
I actually figured it out after the upgrade but yes, it's possible to use the stellar cores to create an artificial sunlight generator that would be at the very centre of the circular tube station structure.
Connected through large pillars leading from the Port Junctions to the centre of the circular tube space habitat station, the stellar core would provide the power for the station as well as the CPU which would manage everything."
Designs for a miniaturised Dyson Sphere for the Stellar Core and a Matrioshka brain which was essentially multiple Dyson Sphere layered upon one another, collecting the waste heat energy for computing.
It honestly seemed like a lot of work and time, but Carter assured him everything could be built within a year, including time for decoration.
.
"Actually… I was thinking about using it as the space station that'd be tethered to Earth." Nighmora surprisingly said, bringing up the idea to enclose the section with the Stellar Core and creating a large station in the middle.
Using the connecting pillars between the Centre Station and the Port Junctions as railway and transportation system for the inhabitants to cross over to the other side of the habitat or leave.
Nighmoras idea seemed to have some steam, but Esmond warned him about the dangers from the sheer size of the structure.
Esmond preferred the tubeworld would be set up around the border of the system or somewhere near Jupiter.
"I don't mean to harm your creativity, but the diameter of the tubeworld is roughly 10,000 kilometres with a radius of around 1000 kilometres.
It would be far too large to be connected with Earth, but being tethered to Jupiter from a distance isn't difficult, and would be preferred since I have some thoughts…"
Esmond decided to lead the talks from that point on with Nighmora making suggestions until they came to an agreement and the next project was brought up.
Soon, Esmond had spent most of his day at the institute working on projects for his future empire.
Exhausted, Esmond returned home and crashed in the lounge room, reaching out for the T.V remote.
Just as he turned it on, Esmond heard the voice he didn't expect to hear right now, but it was too late to do anything about it as Esmond was transported away.

Spawned in Mission City, Esmond noticed the sounds of chaos in the distance.
The screams of the innocent were resonating through the air while the sounds of cannons continued to quake the earth.
"Fucking hell…
Those pricks…!" Esmond cursed under his breath, while summoning drones.
"Go find Bumblebee and when he is injured and loses his legs, head on over and fix him up.
Don't worry about his resistance or anything of the sort."
'Got it!
You better move now if you want to save the members of the Military Convoy…' Carter replied to Esmond, while taking the swarm of drones away to map out the city and search for Bumblebee.
.
Jumping off the seventh floor of the buildings roof he'd spawned on, Esmond started flying in the direction of the battle with his CE-01 armour suit on.
He activated his cloaking system on the suit that'd been retrofitted by Echo at some point since certain upgrades were happening within the Virtual Labs.
'First five to be saved are ahead within 600 metres…' Carter informed Esmond, who was flying up in the air.
Pausing for a moment in mid-flight, Esmond hovered in the air while scanning around the vicinity to search for the five soldiers.
He saw some soldiers moving forward towards the position of a Decepticon further up fighting with Bumblebee it seemed.
For a second Esmond thought the Decepticon fighting Bumblebee might be the reason for the death of the soldiers, but Esmond noticed that something was flying in his direction and fast.
A particularly unique F-22 fighter jet was flying in towards the city a quite the low height.
"Starscream…
Shit!" Esmond thought about ramming the jet with everything he had, but Carter gave him a safer and easier solution to the problem.
As the bombs were dropped by Starscream, aiming for the soldiers who were about to shoot on the Decepticon in their eyesight, Esmond using his control over the Wind Element and alerted the direction of the missiles to miss their targets.
Esmond control sent out small waves of wind that caught the missiles from the side and gently moved them, so they wouldn't feel contact and explode mid-air.
.
Saving the lives of the military soldiers, Esmond uncloaked his armour while floating above the soldiers.
"W-Who are you?"
One of the soldiers asked, with his hands shaking while holding onto the rifle aimed at Esmond.
"… A friend… now take cover and move with care…
I'll be moving ahead." Esmond didn't wait around any longer and thought about his next task.
Carter told him to ignore the next five soldiers that needed to be saved for now.
Controlling the drones, Carter was ready to send the swarm in Bumblebee's direction however he stopped once Megatron started moving.
'Get moving asshole!' Carter screamed into Esmond mind, picking up the speed of Megatron headed to sweep past some of soldiers and grab Jazz.
Megatron had let loose two blades on either side of his transformed vehicle form, dragging them at a low height so they could swing out and attack the soldiers and innocent.
Esmond sped up and decided to move the people aside from being attacked, leaving Jazz to be grabbed quick easily.
"Fuck!" Esmond cursed as he followed Megatron who was flying up to the roof of a tall building, transforming into his robot form, ready to split apart the annoying Jazz who continued to attack Megatron with his small cannons.
"Puny ant! Time for you to die!!" Megatron screamed, having grabbed onto Jazz body but immediately, Megatron felt a large force crash into his back.
"Run!" Esmond screamed at Jazz, who fell out of Megatrons hands and was left on the roof of the building.
"Man…
Thjs is some bullshit…" Jazz cursed allowed before trying his luck with the stairs to get down the building, as he wasn't prepared to dive off the side of the building.
.
"Who dares to strike me!!" Megatron screamed while searching the surrounding for answers, noticing the throbbing pain from his back where the metal had deformed for the weight of Esmonds attack.
On the other hand, Esmond was racing through the air, trying to reach the last soldiers he needed to save in the last few minutes of the mission.
'Bumblebee sends his thanks…' Carter told Esmond, explaining the changes that'd happened to Bumblebee, including some of the weaponry updates and other work.

"… Well… time to make my own little fleet hehehe…" laughing to himself, Esmond raced out the house with Carter not too far behind as they summoned the Cybertronian Lifeform.
At first, the two of them thought they might need to head over to the Summoning Square, but it wasn't what they originally thought.
Both assumed the reward meant Cybertronian lifeforms would spawn daily from the Summoning Square however it was only one.
Appearing before them, covered in its plain steel form without any idea of where it had appeared.
The space registered the biological metal the Cybertronian lifeform was comprised off, including updating the whole structure of the Cybertronian.
Carter decided to upload all the information it could to the behemoth 5.4 metre metal giant.
They waited for a couple seconds until the Cybertronian started to speak.
"… W-what is my name…?"
It had some trouble at the beginning to sort out it's speech pattern, but once it had found a rhythm their seemed to be no issues.
"… How does Reigo Sanctus sound…?" Esmond felt the words best suit the Cybertronian lifeform who seemed to like the name and approved before asking for some help.
Reigo wanted to scan some vehicles so he could create a base for his body and not rely on the basic modular form.
Carter seemed to have his own ideas on the matter and left with Reigo, leaving behind Esmond who decided to bring out the AllSpark.

"Huh?
Ohh shit!
Don't tell me the place is going to turn everything into fucking Transformers!"
Esmond continued to curse while running for the cabin, only to find the others were relaxing in the lounge when he burst through the door.
"Calm down, Esy…
Everything is enhanced, not given life.
But… it wasn't far from giving everything life…
You better be thanking Carter for his quick thinking…" Scarlett muttered at the panicked Esmond who was inspecting the toaster to see if it'd become a Transformer capable of causing mayhem and chaos in the house.
