hello everyone! first chapter of my frist fan fic :) please red and enjoy. comments requested!

this fan fic is based on Transformers PRIME,

I do not own any Transformers! all belong to Hasbro and such.


Knockout, Breakdown, and Soundwave were all in the courters, waiting for what Megatron had to show them, his newest and greatest creation. The great Transformation of Prime becoming Orion again.

Knockout sat with Breakdown, having that evil and flirting glare towards where the boss and new recruit would enter, while Breakdown closed his optics slightly, not really caring about it. Infact, he wasn't thrilled at all. Yes, it was a big jump for the Decepticons… but none the less, he believed they would be fine without prime. Where was their sense of pride anymore?

Soundwave was alone, where he usually worked and resided. Watching that door like a hawk, and standing ever so still.

After a long trail of silence, Knockout spoke.

"what time is it everyone? It seems we've been sitting and standing here for millennia."

"It has only been a few minutes."

"I object to that fact, dear Breakdown. It has to have been an hour."

Breakdown didn't answer. And another wave of silence hit them…. Getting Knockout a tad bit worked up. How dare no one answer him? Ah, well… atleast he tried to make conversation. Unlike others…. With that thought he looked over to Soundwave, raising an optic.

Soundwave seemed to have lightly clenched fists.

"Something the matter, Soundwave?"

Nothing came out. Not even a head turn. He just sat still, staring the door down.

And as Breakdown turned his head to see what Knockout must be talking about, the sliding door opened. Megatron entered first, making everyone look towards in awe and anticipation, the Vehicons bowing below them, greeting their lord.

"Everyone" Megatron began, with his red optics flaming. "I have something special for you and something for the History books." Megatron turned his head towards soundwave.

Soundwave took that as a command, and began recording.

Optimus entered, looking a tad bit shy. Why was his arrival causing so much commotion and need for a show? People stared at him... he didn't have his mask anymore, and his optics seemed a bit more baby blue.

"This is Orion."

With that, everyone agreed to never call the Autobot leader Optimus anymore. But rather this new... old, name. Orion. Orion pax.

Knockout tilted his head at Orion and gave a smile… Ohh~, he had never imagined this, oh no. He always thought of Optimus as… as a brut, as an un-loving bot, the enemy. But now… he's different. Everything about him seemed different. He stood, with Breakdown following, coming a bit closer to the new lad.

Megatron gave Knockout a sharp look, sending him a step back, and Spoke again.

"Orion is one of us, a loyal Decepticon, built to serve."

With that statement, everyone took note at the changed logo. Indeed. Orion was a Decepticon now.

"You will treat him well and with respect. As much respect as you give ME." He boomed at the last word, glaring at his Vehicons and then to his main crew.

The Vehicons nodded along with Breakdown.

Knockout smirked, already making his plans to try and get Orion alone. Maybe go on a joy ride.

Soundwave just looked, still recording.

"Now! Everyone get back to your posts. We have new work to do."

The Vehicons left , some staying because their posts were here, but even then they all wanted to discuss the new and bold Orion Pax. You could already hear mumbles.

Knockout, Breakdown, and Soundwave stayed put, looking at each other. A tiny click from Soundwave gave the clear that everyone could talk freely now. And the video document was saved.

Orion headed close to his new family, smiling. "Hello… you are all Megatrons main ones? I'm glad to be a part of you now." His voice was still the same, that bold and almost wise voice that everyone had come to demise. But the way he spoke now, it was like a mere child.

Knockout was the first to greet him. "Hello! Welcome. Knockout at your service", He touched Orion's shoulder, pulling him a bit away from Megatrons side, "The medic of the group. If there is ANY trouble on the inside and out~" a wink, "I can help you."

Orion smiled shyly, looking at him, then to Megs, who just stared with his usual sour face… then to Breakdown. Everyone seemed a bit sour in this place. Even the ship was… not cheery. Had they lost a battle or something?

Breakdown gives a nod to Orion, "Breakdown. You'll catch me around now n' then." His voice is a bit bitter.

"Ohhh! Be a little nicer Breakdown~" Knockout teases.

Soundwave comes from behind Megatron, studying Orion before giving a greeting, and then gives a clicking sound for people to notice he's there. Orion turns, tilting his head. "ah, your … Soundwave?"

A nod.

"Hello. I look forward to working with you!"

..… working with him? Soundwave looks to Megatron, who nods.

"You two will do the decoding and scanning. Nothing new to you, Soundwave."

"So I will be up around the main area?" Orion tugs at Megatrons arm and then pulls away quickly, excited.

"No. you will have your own lab. However you and Soundwave will share data constantly."

"Oh." Orion gets a disappointed look, turning his head over to Soundwave. He seemed nice and quiet… one of the oldest bots here. Being older always meant you were wise and…cool.


About 2 days have passed since Orion's arrival. He'd been separated from the most of them. In his own little lab, without any distractions. Megatron had stopped coming to visit and see what Soundwave and Breakdown were doing, only to go and talk with Orion and pile the workload onto him.

Soundwave's work.

Soundwave had never seen Megatron so… so happy- with a soilder before. So happy to see a Decepticon working for his effort. Infact- he'd never been happy with Soundwave himself.

Why was Orion getting most of Megatrons approval? After all, had Soundwave not been there for his leader? What. What was it? Had soundwave not preformed accordingly? Did he mess up something, leading Megatron to not care fully for him? Oh-

Get a hold of yourself, Soundwave. Don't get emotional about this. This mere thing.

…and yet he could do nothing about it, could he. No. He was mad on the inside, but he would never let that show. It was bad enough Knockout saw him with clenched fists and made a comment about it. Soundwave expected for that medic to come up any time, any day now… asking about it and expecting an answer. What would be Soundwave's answer, anyway?

Alas, Soundwave returned to his work, his claws tapping away on the keys and screen. Keeping an eye on everything and everyone.
