Chapter 2: BlueShadow

An Earth month after Predacons Rising...

Sodor...

It took awhile for the engines to used to life before Predaking ever since he left. Thomas and Percy had no one to talk back to the trucks when they misbehaved or give them rides in the air to scare Harold or Jeremey. For the summer, Spencer was to supposed to be staying with the Duke and Duchess of Boxford. He had not heard about the Autobots or Decepticons. Currently, the engines were talking in Tidmoth Sheds.

"It's a good thing Sodor is fully rebuilt now...if only Predaking could see this." Thomas sighed.

"We wouldn't have gotten all that work done so quickly without him." Henry said.

"Agreed, but I'm sure Predaking is doing fine. Cybertron should be safe now. No Decepticons will be bothering us." Edward assured.

"I hope you're right Edward. And hopefully we'll never see Shockwave or Soundwave again." Percy said.

Thomas shuttered remembering his encounter with Soundwave. That mech would not leave him alone that night.

"Still, we don't know if the Decepticons are truly gone forever, some may have survived, others might return. We need to be extra careful." James explained.

The other engines agreed. They didn't know how right they were.

Cybertron...

The Autobots were still saddened over Optimus' sacrifice but were overjoyed that Cybertron was restored. While they were busy continuing repairs, they had discovered the Dinobots who have survived the destruction of Cybertron and were helping the Autobots build the new city, New Spark. With Megatron ending the Decepticons for good and exiling himself, Shockwave found himself alone in his lab. He had survived his near death experience with the terrocons and had just finished the latest Predacon. Speaking of Predacons, Predaking, DarkSteel and SkyLnx were now living on their own and satisifed after killing their abuser Starscream.

"Predaking, you think that new Predacon Shockwave was working on is finished?" SkyLnx asked as they were walking around.

"It's possible...mabye we should go find out." Predaking suggested.

"Watch it be a femme. That would be interesting." DarkSteel laughed.

"I doubt it, what makes you think that?" SkyLnx asked.

"Just saying it would be nice, especially for me."

"You would date your sister?"

"Nevermind."

Upon arriving to Shockwave's lab, they see Shockwave just leaving out of a backroom. The Predacons remembered to be quiet and careful. Predaking still hasn't forgiven Shockwave for attacking the island and trying to experiment on Thomas.

"Shockwave...how is the work on the new Predacon?" Predaking asked not noticing Shockwave hadn't fixed all his injuries.

"Finished awhile ago. She's stable and has quickly evolved. Right now she's in recharge." Shockwave explained.

"SHE?" Predaking and SkyLnx were surprised.

"HAH! I KNEW IT!" DarkSteel yelled out.

"SILENCE! Shockwave, can we see her?" Predaking asked.

"I don't know why you would insist on asking or even coming here after your betrayel." Shockwave growled.

"I did the right thing Shockwave. How dare you have the nerve to attack my friends." Predaking retorted.

"I was only obeying Megatron." Shockwave sneered.

"DON'T YOU DARE BRING THAT NAME IN HERE!" Predaking roared, eyes glowing.

During their argument, the door to the back room opened slowly and out came a figure. It was the new Predacon femme. She was very slim but very young. She was a dark blue with several streaks of yellow and black. She looked similiar to Predaking mainly in face, alt. mode, glowing yellow optics and a crown-like head. She had rows of sharp yellow teeth and black razor-sharp claws and feet. Little blue and yellow wings were folded against her back. Her spiky tail whipped around in curiosity.

"Um...vhat's going on?" She asked with a innocent transylvanian accent.

The arguing ceased quickly and they all turned to her. Predaking was the most surprised.

"You're much younger than I thought." Predaking said.

"Shockvave told me about you three, DarkSteel...SkyLnx...and Predaking...you must be my true sire." She assumed.

"What is your name?" Predaking asked.

"I call myself...BlueShadow." She said proudly.

"Ooh, BlueShadow is a good name." DarkSteel nodded.

"Yeah I agree." SkyLnx said.

"I didn't like it." Shockwave said.

"Well I do...and it's staying. BlueShadow, you must me and my bretheren so we can expand our population and live freely on Cybertron. Even if it means living on a planet that will take eons to rebuild and restore it to it's former glory." Predaking smiled.

BlueShadow smiled back...though something puzzled her. She had been noticing several images of different beings on several screens around the lab. That and have heard Shockwave mutter something about someone named "Turmus" or something like that.

"Is something wrong?" Predaking asked.

"No I'm fine...just thinking. Vould it be okay if I join you three later...I still need to recharge badly." BlueShadow said slowly blinking her optics.

"Very well, we'll be nearbye." Predaking said.

When they left, BlueShadow caught a glimpse of an image going across one screen that showed the specifications of Thomas and Percy. She raised an optic ridge in curiousity.

"Shockvave, vhat vas that?" She asked pointing to the screen.

"None of your business right now BlueShadow. That information will be studied on more later." Shockwave said walking away to clean up his worktable.

"But I vant to know...vho are they? Vhere are they from? Are they from that same planet the Autobots vere from?"

"Do not speak of the Autobots BlueShadow. Not even of their human allies."

BlueShadow gave up. Ever since she was created, Shockwave thought she was too young to understand what had gone on before her and she was starting to get on his nerves. She didn't have much freedom inside or outside of the lab and was getting tired of Shockwave's rules. She was so happy to finally meet Predaking knowing she would have a better life with him. After only being alive for two weeks, she was very quick to evolve and learn how to operate computers. She was extremely smart with enough intelligence to possibly compete against Shockwave.

When Shockwave left to another room, BlueShadow sprinted to the computer screen and pulled up the image she saw earlier. She was confused, they didn't look like the human allies that she heard of. They were bigger, probably a bit bigger than her. She flipped through another set of images until she came to a clear image of Thomas and Percy smiling at each other. She was so confused yet...amazed at the same time. Who were they? Why is she being kept in the dark about them right now? She was going to find out."
