Living with decepticons

Chapter 1: Knock out – Three Whole cycles

My breath came out in a foggy cloud before me as I raced through the enormous dark gray, almost black halls. I was currently running for my life, as you can tell, from a very murderous Medic, Knock Out. The faint rumble of his racing engine echoed behind me, as he furiously looked from my scrawny hide that managed to slip away from him by merely inches when I dived into the vents.

After I finally crawled out of the ventilation system, KO already began his raged search for me, tires screeching and horn blaring at Mech's that got within his path. The sky base was literally toppling this way and that as Decepticons jumped and dove away from the chessy red Aston Martin DBS V12.

One time when a heavily armored 'Dec frantically dodged the upcoming medic barely by throwing his whole body into the wall with a crash, taking others with him as well, which nearly caused the Nemesis to do a complete barrel roll.

Rounding yet another corner, a heavy weight smashed into me that was going the opposite direction, sending us both to land on our butts. I hissed in pain rubbing my new aching area, before turning to the thing I ran into, meeting the startled icy blue eyes with a slight hint of a cloudy gray mixture of Maddie.

"Wha-" Maddie began but I quickly cut her off.

"Run!" And with that, I snagged her wrist and bolted dragging a very confused Maddie after me.

Our shoes pounded and squeaked upon the solid steel as we weaved between the Decepticons legs and feet, luckily not getting stepped on or crushed in the process. Racing out of one of the mechanical sliding doors, I yelped skidding to a complete halt as my eyes landed on a fuming and heavily venting cherry red Medic. Beside him stood his personal bodyguard Breakdown. Bloodthirsty red optics met my hazel and slightly lime green ones. Time seemed to freeze in that moment before Knock Out slowly raised one clawed finger in my direction.

"You…" He hissed, venom in his cold voice.

Acting quickly I shoved Maddie before me and said, "It was her!"

"What?!" Maddie barked, stunned by being the sudden sacrifice.

KO didn't buy it nor did Breakdown as they rushed in for the kill.

I squealed and ran, leaving Maddie behind after howling over my shoulder, "You're on your own dude!"

Luckily Maddie didn't get trampled down as the two large Mech's charged past in hot pursuit.

After what seemed like a marathon of endless running, I finally had to stop. My lungs ached and my heart was pounding and dang was I out of shape. I never ran that much since Junior High before they stopped caring about if we even participated in the required activities. Unfortunately I was caught and dragged back to Med Bay by one very ticked off Medic and one extremely amused warrior. When the doors opened I was tossed onto the examining table and Knock Out loomed over me, optics blazing.

A smirk spread across my face when the light hit his cherry coat. There were multiple scratches and long slashes covering most of his plated body. There was also a huge amount of random doodles and Autobot symbols etched on every plate including his face.

Flashback

I crouched in the vents a wide grin appearing on my face as my victim, totally unaware of the lurking danger, fell into a deep recharge. All day the poor Mech was hassled around the base back and forth until he finally collapsed and was dragged half in recharge by Breakdown and Soundwave. Annoying screams of anger trailing after their departure from Starscream. Apparently KO fell into a light recharge during a complaining rant about asking to leave first before doing so from Starscream.

As the annoying Decepticon went through his rant he turned his back upon the charging Bot, and paused waiting for a response to a question. Getting none Scream spun back around only to be crushed underneath a falling Knock Out, and onto one of his many projects to overthrow Megatron. The angered scream from the second in command awoke KO for about two seconds, before he drifted back into recharge and was hauled back to Med Bay.

When Breakdown and Soundwave left the charging Bot, I slipped out from the vents and slinked to my defenseless victim. I felt sorry for the poor Medic but it quickly faded as I slipped out my weapon of mass destruction, which happened to be a large chunk of metal, and began to doodle upon the cherry red canvas.

End Flashback

"You little fragging pit-spawn organic! Look what you did to my paint!" Knock Out snarled. Breakdown leaned back, totally amused by the situation.

"What?! It's not my fault you're a heavy recharger, and it's just a few scratched. No big deal." I shrugged.

KO took a step back, a clawed hand raising to his chest plates and a look of horror overcame his face as he stared down at me with his luminous red optics.

"No big deal…? NO. BIG. DEAL?!" KO hissed. On instinct, or maybe it was the look of fear upon my face, Breakdown decided to intervene. Resting a hand on the rampaging Medic, he leaned in closer speaking in Cybertronian to him for a brief second. I looked on in confusion as the fury died within Knock Out's optics and a pleased looking smirk crossed his face plates. he remained looking at me with the creepiest Decepticon smiles I have even seen, and for once I began to fear my life. Breakdown moves back to his previous relaxed position, a satisfied gleam shimmering in his own optics.

"What…?" I questioned, as they continued to stare at me like creepers.

"What?!" I said again, starting to become self-conscious and wary.

Without warning both Mech's lunged for me, restraining my movement with wires that were randomly hanging around, before I was slung up onto Breakdown's shoulder. I screamed, wiggling around like a fly would when ensnared in a spiders trap. We pasted multiple and totally amused Decepticons that would either snicker or watch in confusion at our passing. As we reached the back of the Nemesis I was then thrown off Breakdown's shoulder and sent plummeting off the edge, screaming bloody murder.

I swear my life flashed before my eyes as I fell through the air. I was already saying goodbye to my stupid pit-spawn of a brother and spitting out random slag, when I was suddenly jerked to a stop. Unbearable pain snapped on my stomach at the stop making my breath leave me in a rush.

Slowly peeling open my eyes I watched in utter terror as the world flew past me in a blur of greens, blues, and browns. That's when I noticed a small wire tied in with the rest around my stomach, leading up to the ship, only to be held loosely within the Medic's careless clawed hands. a smug grin was now painted across his face plates as I dangled helplessly and flailing like a mad man from the wire that somehow was able to hold my weight, no matter how much I wiggled. Breakdown was nowhere to be seen. he was probably still beside Knock Out laughing his aft off at the scene.

"Apologize!" The cherry red Medic snarled down.

"Never!" I howled back, instantly being dropped three feet, before being caught by the wire. A small yelp escaped me as the wire started to cut into the soft part of my arms, drawing blood.

"Now!"

"No!"

Dropped another three feet.

"Apologize now organic!"

"Make me!"

Again I was dropped the caught only thing time Knock Out was letting the rope slowly slip from his clawed grasp. I gulped trying to push past my stubbornness for once to apologize to the fragging Medic. Breakdown's laughter was roaring over the screeching wind and I scowled picturing the warrior flopping onto his back and rolling around on the base like a crazied Bot.

still getting no apology Knock Out shrugged, "Okay then." And with that, KO released the wire completely.

"I'm ssssoooorrrryyy!" I cried starting my life ending hurtle for the ground. The earth came rushing for me and I closed my eyes bracing for the coming death. After what seemed like an endless fall, I met something… Cold…?

Huh… funny. I thought death was supposed to be warm.

Peering through my closed hazel eyes I found myself staring back into victorious red optics. it took me a few seconds for my senses to come back before I glared at the smug Knock Out. Breakdown as I guessed was rolling on the ground kicking his legs up in the air and his vocal processors were being strained with the furious laughter.

"Now that you have apologized pit-spawn organic-" KO began.

"I have a name!" I snapped cutting him off.

"Here's your punishment." Knock Out continued ignoring me.

"What?!" I started to protest. Wasn't being thrown off a flying base, then nearly dying punishment enough?! Apparently not.

"You are to buff, polish, and clean every inch of my destroyed and contaminated plates, until they can reflect your disgusting organic squishy face plates for three whole Cycles." KO said proudly, optics shinning with triumph.

"… Three whole Cycles…?" I stated dully and Knock Out nodded.

"THREE WHOLE CYCLES?!" I repeated fear seeping into my voice.

"Yep. Better get started pit-spawn, I want to look my best for the races tonight."

"NOOOOOOO!" I cried as I was carried away by the still rocking with laughter warrior and chessy colored cherry red Medic.
