Authors Note
This chapter changed alot through my writting. The second half of this was supposef to be the start of chapter 3 but I changed my mind since I thought up a better idea and this chapter wouod have been short. I would also like to thank my Friend Ames for coming up with the story title and this chapters title. That girl will write a novel one day. I just know it.
I would also like to state this. The indentation in this chapter and in the next one is off. Unlike in chapter one where I only used my laptop on this chapter and the next I used my phone which hates to indent. I tried fixing it on my laptop but it was just screwing it up more. So ignore the indents.

Chapter 2: Glitchout
Starscream just looked at Knockout in confusion. He was staring off into space somewhere. "Knockout, you home?" Knockout, hearing the mention of his name snapped back into reality. "Yes?" Weird, he didn't look like he was in pain anymore.
"Aren't you hurt?"
"No. Why should I be?"
"Because I just shot you." Starscream looked at Knockout in complete confusion. He forgot it, somehow.
"You shot me?!" Knockout looked down at his arm to see a bullet wound, then looked as if he was ready to brutally murder the seeker, it was certainly a look the medic has never shown before. And it was creepy."Maybe." Starscream chuckled nervously only know realizing he should have made something up instead of being honest about that. He felt so stupid but just smiled at Knockout.
"Dammit Sparkscream! You don't shoot at bots who fix your injuries!!" Knockout glared angrily, walking towards the seeker with that creepy death glare. He was clearly unhappy with Starscream who know looked at Knockout not only confused but slightly nervous. "Uhh, Knockout, my name is Starscream."
"I know. That's what I said"
"No….You called me Sparkscream for whatever reason."
Knockout laughed lightly. "Oh I did? Whoops. I guess it's that i see yours, so it's really all i'm thinking about right now." Starscream took a step back. "Maybe your just tired..You should rest, you look….well you look dead in the faceplate." Starscream stepped out of the med-bay and shut the door. What the hell just happened?
On the other side of the door there was a loud crash followed by about two more before everything in there seemed to have fallen silent. Starscream looked away from the door and saw Soundwave there."Damn it Soundwave!! Don't scare me like that!" As expected the telepath didn't respond. What a shock.
The telepath looked at the gun and took it from Starscream. "HEY! WHY DID YOU TAKE IT!?" Starscream was still very on edge from before, it felt like this would just never end. Soundwave grabbed Starscream and pulled him off to his quarters, throwing the seeker inside and locking him in his own room. Soundwave then went to a hidden vault and put the gun in, locking it up tight. This was bad, where was Shockwave. Shockwave and Megatron. They knew how to fix this right? Well, at least he knew it was Starscream's fault. Before anything else though he sealed the med-bay door shut and began a frantic search.
Soundwave was walking around searching for Megatron and Shockwave for hours by this point. They were probably in one of Shockwaves secret labs. Well, he would find them soon enough, it was getting late now and recharge was desperately needed by the silent mech at this point, all the other cons aboard the ship were probably already asleep as it is. And he sure hoped their doors were locked up tight.
Soundwave entered his berth room and locked it up, and got ready incase an intrusion happened. Once done the telepath drifted off into recharge.
Two or three hours pass by and the ship was dead silent. The hallways glowing a glow ominous purple as usual. The only one awake was Knockout who was clenching himself, feeling agonizing pain all throughout him. Feeling like he was actually losing his processor he forced himself to a station and copied his processor before it was to late, hoping someone would find it and manage to put it in him if they did not end up dying in the process, there was a copy of it in the form of a chip that he put on the table and sent another copy to the autobots, even though they were enemies there was no way that they wouldn't help, at least he hoped that was the case. Dammit if Knockout ever managed to get through this Starscream was dead meat.
And with that the medic collapsed on the ground from the pain that just kept growing.
