It seemed like a normal day at Autobot headqauters. Everything was the same as usual, the Autobots were looking to see if there were any Decepticon attacks planned.
"Hmm..nothing yet.." Optimus Prime mumbled. The Autobots were just hanging around, they were somwhat bored. Sure, they were glad that the Dececpticons weren't attacking, but they wanted somthing to do. The Autobots weren't the only bored the ones. Chip,Sparkplug and Spike were bored also.
"Are you bored too, Spike?" Bumblebee asked. Spike sighed.
"Yeah..do you think anything intresting will happen?" Spike sighed bored. Before he met the Autobots he would of never thought hanging out with giant robots would be boring.
"I hope so." Bumblebee sighed. "Atleast Optimus Prime has somthing to occupy himself, even if it is work."
"It's important, Bumblebee." Optimus Prime pointed out. Bumblebee,didn't care. He just wanted somthing to do. Talking to Spike was alright, but it got boring fast. Bumblebee didn't think you could get bored of your best friend.
Then the Decepticon intruder alarm went off.
"Autobots! There's a Dececpticon! Get ready to attack!" Optimus Prime said.
"Well, THIS is somthing to do." Bumblebee said. Tracks however, didn't see it that way.
"Bumblebee..those Decepticons are annoying." Tracks said annoyed.
"Weren't you bored too?" Mirage asked. Tracks gave him an annoyed look. "You can be boring somtimes, Tracks."
"Atleast Cliffjumper never mistook me for a traitor.." Tracks murmerd. Mirage ignored him. Then, Starscream entered. What surprised them was he was so..calm..when he entered.
"Starscream!" Optimus Prime yelled. "Why is he alone?"
"Wait.." Starscream said and put his hand up. The Autobots gave him a confused glare. Starscream was acting way too diffrent. Optimus Prime was the not the only one wondering why he was alone.
"What?" Optimus Prime asked protectivly, but patient for what Starscream had to say.
"You know..I was thinking about Megatron's leadership skills." He paused. "Maybe he isn't the best leader."
All the Autobots gave a dumbfounded look. They were in utter shock. Sure, they knew he wasn't that loyal to Megatron, but what was he doing here? Starscream decieded to say somthing to break the awkward silence,
"Then..I-I thought of what a nice leader you have." Starscream said. "Maybe..I can trick them...I just have to keep trying."
The Autobots were even more shocked..if that was possible. They seemed to be thinking over what Starscream had said.
"Starscream..are you saying you want to join us?" Optimus Prime asked apalled. Starscream seemed to freeze.
"Yes.." Starscream said reluctently. All the Autobots were horrorstruck. Starscream gave them a look like it was no big deal. However, the Autobots thought the opposite then of what Starscream thought.
"Starscream..you're a Decepticon.." Optimus Prime said.
"I was" Starscream countured. This took Prime of gaurd a bit. He stepped back in shock. The Autobots looked at their leader, unsure what to do. Optimus Prime wasn't sure what to do etheir. He studied Starscream for a bit and sighed.
"Starscream..if you want to join...you'd have to prove you're not loyal to the Decepticons anymore." Optimus Prime said.
"Great..how am I going to show him that I'm not loyal to the Decepticons..or atleast pretending not to be." Starscream thought. "How can I prove that I am?"
"You will stay here and I will keep a close watch on you." Optimus Prime said causiosly. The other Autobots were shocked.
"Optimus are you crazy!" Ironhide whispered. "He's a Decepticon!"
"Ironhide..he deserves a chance, and besides I'll be keeping a close eye on him." Optimus Prime whispered. "If he attacks any of you, just communicate to me right away."
"Well, what if he attacks Spike,Chip or Sparkplug?" Ironhide said back. "Or KILLS them?" That thought made Ironhide shudder; and he was the one who said it!
Optimus Prime was frozen as he thought of what Ironhide said. "If Starscream kills them..I-I..have you ever seen my darkside?"
"No..what are you going to turn purple with red eyes proclaming "Ti'll all are gone!" " Ironhide asked, more as a joke however.
Optimus Prime gave him a wiered out stare. Ironhide was suddenly embrassed. "Err..I mean..you have a dark side?"
"Maybe...I'm not sure, but if Starscream did kill them..I fear it would bring out my dark side. I care for them alot. That is why I'll be watching him carefully." Optimus Prime said. Ironhide was mad, but decided not to agrue with his leader. Optimus Prime did promsie to keep a close eye on Starscream..that was good.
It would defintly be a long time before they could trust Starscream...
