Prologue
Shots keep loudly across the battlefield.
Steps that sounded like thunder shook the ground.
Screams mingled with the ongoing exchange of fire.
Energon soaked the ground beneath their feet...
It was a battle, as it hadn't been there before.
A battle that had rolled over Cybertron like an inferno!
They had come without warning.
Quiet and undetected they had sneaked into Iacon.
The attack came quickly, surprising and it was merciless.
The Decepticons knew no mercy.
They had killed anyone who crossed their path.
They hadn't taken any Prisoners.
There had been death only...
Starscream had already seen many battles after he had joined Megatron and the Decepticons, but this battle was different than anything he had experienced before.
He had never seen so many Cybertronians dying before his optics.
Never had his optics seen so much hatred and suffering.
And never had he felt so lousy, as on this day.
Although he was a Decepticon; but he hated to fight and to kill others.
His leader seemed to have no scruples.
He tore apart one Cybertronian after the other that crossed his path and he seemed even to enjoy it.
Starscream was not surprised, because he knew the story of how Megatron got his name.
He had been a gladiator in Kaon, the best of them...and the most terrible!
Starscream shivered.
He had often seen Megatron fighting in the arenas of Kaon and it had filled his body with fear every time and he had vowed to never ever mess with a beast like him.
He was not a fighter!
He was an Energon Seeker, a scientist...
But now he was forced to fight, and Primus, that he did!
He hardly recognized himself anymore, when he killed an enemy after the other and raised his weapons against those, who he had called his friends in the past.
He just wanted to live a peaceful life.
A life, free of violence and without unscrupulous leaders...
But he couldn't change it anymore.
He had chosen a side.
Whether it was the right one?
Starscream didn't know and it didn't matter to him as long as he lived...
Again his claws hit the face of an Autobot, who had come too close to him. In just a few seconds he had extinguished the spark of the Bot, but he felt no joy when he did that. Only hatred against himself, that he had decided to become a fighter. He had joined Megatron, since he was in the majority, but if he had known what awaited him, he would never have done it and joined Optimus Prime instead!
But his decision had been made and he thus had to live with it.
If he would live or not live would decide today!
He was already wearing a wound with him that stretched across his belly.
Fortunately, it was just a huge scratch.
Nothing bad and it did barely hurt...
His optics were focused on the battlefield, where thousands of Bots were fighting.
Bots, who had sat together in the arenas of Kaon and had watched the fights, before everything went downhill. Now they were here and fought.
Bots, who had once been good friends, were now bitter enemies.
A terrible sight...
Starscream could hardly bear this sight, and he tried to ignore his feelings as best he could and he killed another attacker.
Then another, and another...
It seemed to take hardly an end and he wondered already where Megatron was, because he couldn't see him.
Had he left them and were they all left to death now?
He knew Megatron all too well and he also knew that he would do such a terrible thing, but Starscream's thoughts came to an end when he saw his leader, not far away from him.
Some Bots had thrown themselves on his back and now tried to force the mighty Mech down, but they had no success.
With only a single fluid motion, Megatron had managed to tear down three of them by himself, and he smashed them onto the floor, where he raised his weapon and killed them.
Starscream looked away.
Not because he could not bear to watch it.
No.
Something else had drawn his attention.
A scream pierced the air around him.
A scream that went through his body and made him shiver.
A scream that stood out from the others...
He moved into the direction from which the scream had come, scanned the floor and when he found the source of the scream, he couldn't believe his optics...
"By the Allspark! Megatron! How far have you brought us?"
