Little Lord

Prologue:

It was a normal day onboard the Nemesis. I was doing my normal work, monitoring the ship and its travellers and decoding the last coordinates of the relics as Lord Megatron entered the, apart from me, empty control bridge.

"Soundwave, how is you progress with finding the left relics?", questioned Lord Megatron, me, his IO. But instead of answering I tipped on the keyboard and stepped aside, allowing my Lord to see the screen. "Good work Soundwave! Now, open a ground bridge to these coordinates!", playing a record of Megatrons voice, I said: "Starscream, go and find the relic...!" "Play the rest of the record." "...and beware if you fail me again!" "Does this answer you question?" I nodded. I fully understood, Megatron has punished Starscream after his failure with the last relic. Starscream is a disgrace for all the Decepticons, but Megatron won't throw him out! But, who am I to judge Lord Megatron?

On my visor appeared a number of different cybertronian symbols. "Forge of Solus Primus…, I see! Well, open the ground bridge!" Right behind Megatron appeared a portal, which he entered, just in time as a scratched and damaged Starscream walked into the control room.

Stumbling and tripping Starscream walked in and looked from me to the open portal and back to me. Walking towards the control panel in order to get informed, Starscream suddenly tripped and barged into me. We crashed into the control panel and the ground bridge vanished before is appeared again and finally explodes, flooding the room in bright lights. Of course, Starscream appears and suddenly everything goes wrong! What have I expected? I pushed him away from me and he fell right onto the floor. He whined. Wimp! As I looked in the direction of the ground bridge, I froze… Where the ground bridge a few minutes ago was, sat now… a sparkling…. but not just any sparkling, it was… "Lord Megatron?" Starscream shouted.

I slowly made my way to the Sparkling, Starscream right behind me. As I reached, well, my little lord, he looked up at me with bright purple optics. His optics showed no fear, instead they showed… recognition? Does he recognize me? Has just Lord Megatrons body shrinked and his memories along with his personality were still as previously? Suddenly the Sparkling reached up with his little arms and looked up at me expectantly. What does he want? "Aww, little Sparkling Megatron wants to be hold by you, Soundwave! Isn't this sweat?" Starscream said mocking. He wants to be hold? By me? This is just… awkward! I did not move and the optics of the little creature filled with Energon tears and his lips trembled. "You make him cry, Soundwave!" "Stop being ridiculous and do something useful!" I lightly pushed Starscream forward and pointed with my finger to the Sparkling. "Alright, alright! There is no reason to snap at me!" Starscream bend down and put Megatron on his arm, who in return stopped whimpering. "What now? Shall we bring him to Shockwave?" I nodded. "Whatever…" He started walking and I followed close behind. What a surprise. He is not stumbling anymore… With that, we made our way to Knockout and Shockwave, who hopefully find a cure for this mess.


Hope you liked it. Please review! :)

There will be a lot of Soundwave/Sparkling Megatron moments in the next chapters. If you have any ideas tell me, I am open for everything. Maybe I will even use them! ;)

Maybe the Autobots will be mentioned in later chapters, but the main part will be about the Decepticons!
