Sequeal to 'Uncle Prime'.
Description: Blazer has been with the Autobots for over a millenia, but he's only just finding out for dangerous high grade is. What if high grade made his processors revert back to being a Decepticon.
The Autobots had just arrived back at the base after another successful mission. One more Decepticon dead, just one less to worry about... But who knew that I was more dangerous when I got drunk. Optimus sat down at the back of the rec. room, Ironhide sat next to him, but I sat with Sideswipe and the twins. Sideswipe got me, Mudflap, Skids and himself a high grade energon. I had never had high grade before, I never had a reason to celebrate, but this was as good a time than ever.
"To another successful mission mechs" Sideswipe said, raising his energon.
We all raised our drinks and cheered. "Yeah, one more Decepti-punk dead" Mudflap announced.
Skids jumped up and got behind me, putting an arm around me. "And with our own ex-Decepticon, where untouchable".
"Yeah, yeah. I wasn't that good. It was reaction. I just saw Prime in trouble. I couldn't control myself. I just attacked whatever got in my way" I explained, it was partly true, I was going to attack whatever got in my way... As long as it was a Decepticon.
"Don't be so modest" Sideswipe said. Putting a hand on my shoulder. "You saved Optimus" he announced.
An hour later the twins wandered off to bed, then half an hour later Sideswipe could no longer hold himself up, so attempted to go to bed. Two hours after that, Ironhide went for a walk up to the command centre, assuring that he wouldn't be long. Leaving just me and Optimus, I was absolutely hammered, and almost in recharge when Optimus startled me. I had my head on the table, trying desperately to try to get some recharge, Prime walked up and placed a hand on my shoulder. I jumped higher than I've ever jumped before, "Hey, easy. Sorry I didn't mean to scare you" he said.
"No, it's all good. Just didn't expect that" I announced, then noticed who it was that woke me. "Hey Optimus" I said, heading over to the high grade cupboard.
I was staggering over to the cupboard, balancing myself on anything I could find, to keep from falling over. Optimus could see that I had difinately had more than two. "How many high grade's have you had?" he asked.
I finally got to the cupboard, and grabbed another high grade. "I don't know. I lost count after the first five" I announced.
Optimus tried to stop me, but I was protecting my high grade. "You are drunk" he stated. "That's your last one" he ordered.
"Whatever. Just because you're the leader of these Autobots, doesn't mean you can boss me around" I explained, taking a mouthful of my high grade.
"You are an Autobot!" he snapped. "Blazer, listen to me. You are drunk, you don't know what you're doing... Please stop, before you hurt yourself" he said, trying to stop me from reaching in to grab yet another high grade.
"Whatever... Get out of my way" I snapped, pushing him aside.
"Blazer!" he yelled, trying to stop me from making a mistake. I snapped my weapons out, and powered them up, pointing them at Optimus. He backed down, and tried to avoid a fight. "Blazer. Don't do this".
I didn't pay him any attention. "You know, I am more like Megatron than I thought" I announced.
He just looked at me, in surprise and disbelief. "No you're not. You're nothing like Megatron, you have saved us, and risked your life for humans and Autobots alike. Don't ruin it now" he said, my weapons were now powered up to full power, and I didn't have any intention to back down.
"Oh really, he would destroy anything that stood in his way. Well, I guess that was one thing I took off my dad. You are in my way." I said.
He couldn't figure out how, but he was game anough to ask. "How am I in your way?" he asked.
I stepped forward, "You are the only bot standing between me, and the high grade. And that's a very dangerous place to be, especially at this point in time" he turned to look at the cupboard that he was protecting from me. "And you're the only one I know, who is between me and leadership" I continued.
"If I died Jazz would take my place" he stated. "Then he would appoint a 2IC, and hate to say it at this point in time... It wouldn't be you" he said, gaining an anger growl from me.
"Oh, so Jazz is in my way?" he asked.
"No" he started, and took a few steps froward, but the retreated again, as I raised my weapons. "You're in your own way. You need to stop drink the high grade. Please" I looked at him, but didn't intend to stop just because he was polite.
"Not likely. I want to get to the top, and I figure, if I kill you, there's one less bot to worry about. Sorry Optimus, nothing personal" I announced, raising my weapons, to aim at his spark chamber.
I fired, but surprisingly, Optimus has quick reflexes, and jumped out of the way. Ironhide was just outside, and he came running into the room, and saw what was happening. I gulped dwn the last bit of energon and brought my other weapons online, and began to power them up. "What in Primus' name?" Ironhide yelled, I turned to him, and shot at him. But he also had fairly quick reflexes, I only just missed him, he ran to Optimus and helped as much as possible.
"Hide, we need to offline him. As much as I would hate to hurt him, he isn't going to quit anytime some" Ironhide nodded, and they began to plan a way of offlining me.
But then the worst happened, Ratchet came running in, and stupidly, made himself known to me. "What the frag?" he yelled, I slowly turned to him, and aimed. "Holy slag!" he yelled, and jumped out of the way.
This had just become a three on one, but I still loved the odds. "Well, well Prime. I didn't think you needed this much help. Am I too much to handle? I didn't realise I was this good" I yelled. But recieved no answer.
Sideswipe was th elast to enter the room. "Come on, can you keep it down?" he said, sleepily. Not realising he just walked right into danger. I aimed my weapons and began to fire at him, and hit him a few times. "Oh Primus. Holy..." he yelled, dropping ot the ground.
Prime jumped up. "Sides!" he yelled.
