Son

Character(s)/Pairing(s): Galvatron, mention of Megatron/Starscream
Timeline: Future AU sort of thing

I know this was already in "My Little Lover", but I felt it was a good starting point for "My Other Lover" too :D
I thought it was about time I looked at some other characters in the 2007 movie-verse, and I was inspired by Demyrie's offshoot from her fic "Odd Couple", "Odd Moments", to do this.


The titanic mech rips the navy Autobot's throat out, energon spattering over him as he howls with laughter.

Over by the wall, the younger scout watches his companion die with terror, his own memory files flashing before his processor. He regards the cackling mech with a mixture of horror and fear - black, sharp armour glinting (almost dark purple) in the pale light. The Decepticon (has to be, the scout thinks, no Autobot has teeth like that) bares his fangs, pointed and longer than even Megatron's.

Megatron…? No, the scout thinks, as the black mech abruptly stops laughing and turns to stare curiously at the remaining Autobot, huddled against the wall. Megatron never had wings, angled downwards and draped back like some sort of cape. The helm, it has to be said, is remarkably similar, if slightly more intimidating in black. A single, silver marking, like some sort of tattoo, hangs over his optics in old Cybertronian.

"A…aren't you going to kill me?" the red scout asks, intending it as a challenge but coming out with far more surprise than he'd hoped. The Decepticon just starts laughing again, and briefly, the scout wonders again if it is Megatron and the defeated warlord has finally lost his circuits.

"No," he answers suddenly, the howling laughter stopping as quickly as it came. He flexes his claws pensively. "You can run along to your little…Autobot friends," he spits with disgust, "and you can give them a message for me." He leans down close, red optics boring into the shivering blue ones.

"You tell them…that Galvatron, son of Megatron and Starscream, has come for revenge. Now," he straightens up, waving a hand dismissively with a crooked smile, "run."
