Also, this is really short.
{WORDS} = flashback
{WORDS}song lyrics (which are mine :) )
It was a regular day on the decepticon warship the Nemesis, Megatron was busy yelling at Starscream, Starscream was cowering at Megatron's pedes, Shockwave was who-knows-where with his pet Predaking, and the Autobots hadn't done anything worthy of their attention, so it was pleasantly quiet for a change. Knockout bustled around the Med. Bay, cleaning the room and it's medical equipment. Until he came upon an old, dusty box filled with datapads hidden away at the back of the storage unit. The red medic frowned and picked one such datapad, turning it on with a tap of a clawed digit. What appeared on screen made Knockout's frown turn into a soft smile. There was a picture of a tall, slender, beautiful black femme with a red tinged visor hiding her optics. He knew what color those optics were; before the war, they were orange, now they were crimson red. Knightraid. A fine femme and even better decepticon. And his sister. Older sister.
~~FLASHBACK~~
A tiny red mechling chewed on one of his many toys, big, shiny orange/pink optics trained on the older black femme that was reading from a datapad on the other side of the room. The femme looked up with orange optics and smiled at the mechling, who giggled and bounced on his tiny, unsteady pedes. "Knighty! Knighty!" the mechling shouted for the femme to come pick him up, thrusting his arms up demandingly when the femme came closer. She laughed and shook her head. "oh, Knockout, what am I going to do with you?" Knockout simply responded by trying to lean closer to her, making his already wide optics wider and starting to tear up. The femme shook her head and lifted the mechling out of his berth crib. "Knightraid-y warm." Knockout yawned, snuggling against the warm chassis of his older, gentle sister. He felt and heard the soft, barely hearable beat of her spark and thrum of her systems. And then she started humming, gently rocking the tired hellion in her arms. Then, she started to sing softly.
"hush little mechling don't you cry
I'm gonna be here to make it all right
I'll be here to give you all my love
I'll be here to protect you
Cuz you'll always be my little bro
Even though you so big now
And watching you walk away to live your life hurts me so
I'll always be right here whenever you need a listening audio
So hush little mechling don't you cry
I'm gonna make things alright..."
Knightraid smiled and kissed the slumbering mechling's forhelm and gently placed him into his berth crib. She stood there for a good minute, just watching her little brother recharge so peacefully made a smile tug her lips upwards, despite what her mood was. She turned and glared at the datapad, which she knew held the bills and payments she would have to make by the end of the cycle. She turned her orange optics to look down at Knockout. "I'll make things alright K.O., I promise."
~~END FLASHBACK.~~
Knockout was jerked out of his memories when Starscream came in with numerous dents and burns muttering about how he would make a better leader than Megatron. Knockout shook his head and placed the datapad still clutched in his servos in the box before leading the SIC to a Med. berth so he could begin repairs. Yep, just a normal day, with just a touch of longing for the warmth and sisterly love that he had once been the subject to from a certain red decepticon medic.
Utter crap I know.
Review please.
