Shockwave's Revenge

Chapter 1: Return

On the Nemesis, Soundwave was in the main control room analyzing data. He loved doing a lot of work as it kept him busy. Of course there was always Starscream's bickering, Knock Out's humming, Breakdown's accidental banging and Megatron's yelling. But, there was one bot Soundwave thought was actually sane. Dreadwing. He and Soundwave often talked about past events and always had a laugh now and then. While Soundwave was very loyal to Megatron, Soundwave found Megatron rather, annoying sometimes. He remembered one time he couldn't get any sleep when Megatron yelled loudly about how the Autobots always ruin his plans. Soundwave was very tired the next day and attacked Breakdown just for passing by in the hallway and accidently running into him. Whenever Soundwave saw Starscream, Knock Out and Breakdown together, he called them the Idiotic Trio. That was his nickname for them since they always argued, fought or even just talked a lot of nonsense. As Soundwave was about to hum one of his favorite songs, Megatron came in smirking.

"Ah, Soundwave, good to see you working hard!" Megatron said walking up to him.

Soundwave, loyal as ever, kept typing but was secretly happy. It didn't last long.

"I have a new recruit, he says you, him and Starscream a little...history." Megatron said.

Soundwave's typing speed slowed down as his talons begin clawing the buttons. He knew exactly who he was talking about. Megatron stepped closer, then to the side revealing someone.

"Soundwave, I would like to introduce you to Shockwave." Megatron said.

Soundwave slowly turned around to see the mech. Shockwave stared back at him with his only optic. Lights from the computer screens shone on Shockwave's razor sharp claws that gleamed with pride. Soundwave was furious. For the first time ever, he had lost a little bit of loyalty to Megatron.

"Shockwave is here to help out with syping, research and mabye even a little bit of medical duties." Megatron said. "...shake hands"

If Shockwave had a mouth, he would be deviously grinning. He walked towards Soundwave. Soundwave knew he couldn't disobey Megatron so he raised his hand to shake. Shockwave hesitated too but soon both hands connected and shoke. But Shockwave put a bit more force into it. Soundwave's hand was no match for Shockwave's bigger hand.

"Now then Shockwave, I will show you around, Soundwave keep working!" Megatron ordered and walked Shockwave away.

Soundwave growled. Sometimes he wished the Autobots would have came and destroyed Shockwave. But that probably would never happen. Soundwave knew why Shockwave was mad at him and Starscream. It was all because of a few events in the past when they were little kids. Later, Megatron had finished showing Shockwave everywhere on the ship. Shockwave wasn't given any orders for the day so he plopped onto his berth to read. He laughed at the thought that he was going to have revenge soon. He planned on torturing Soundwave and the others till they feel like killing themselves. Many people say Shockwave goes to far with devious plans. But that's what Shockwave wants. Later again, Starscream was walking down a hallway heading back to his room after checking up on maintenance. He happen to turn one cormer and there was Shockwave right in his face. Shockwave was leaning on the wall with one hand curled on his hips and the other one on the wall supporting his balance.

"Hello Starscream!" Shockwave said squinting his one optic.

"Shockwave? What are you doing here?" Starscream asked horrified.

"Working! It's been awhile!" Shockwave said.

"It has...oh scrap!" Starscream said remembering everything.

"Yes, the pranks, the pain, the humiliation, the torture!" Shockwave said looking down at the claws on his hips. "How could you forget that?"

Starscream begin to back away. Shockwave began coming closer.

"Stay away from me!" Starscream warned holding his claws in front of him for defense.

"Why? Megatron isn't around!" Shockwave said continuing to come closer.

Starscream turned around and began to run for his life. He didn't scream like most people do when they run from somebody but at times he yelled "help". Starscream kept running until he reached his room. He slammed the door shut and locked it. He heard a voice from outside.

"You have to come out at some point screamer!" Shockwave said and left. But not before kicking the door making a dent.

Starscream was actually in a corner of his room sucking on his thumb while curled up in a ball. Shockwave was pleased.

"This is going to be fun!"
