Starscream left with Sarah to the address on the paper leaving poor Maggie with Megatron. He bellowed, "Maggot you will bring me more dark Energon."

Maggie scurried to where the dark Energon was kept she shuttered as she took a piece the size he typically liked. She knew full well the robot was even crazier once he took dark Energon. But she hurried along anyway carrying the heavy Energon piece back to Megatron. She watched as he shoved the piece into his chest waiting for her next order. Scalpel rushed in saying, "I am sorry Lord Megatron but the last test subject died. May I have another?"

Megatron grinned replying, "No problem Scalpel it was just a week human I don't expect them to live. However, if you use Maggie I believe you will have great success. Her survival instincts seem to be quite high. Plus you have learned much from the others."

Maggie paled so this is how she was going to die. She hung her head as she made her way to Scalpel once in his hand she whispered, "I know you must do this but please once the experiment is complete end my life functions. I don't want to live with whatever you will have to do to me."

Scalpel nodded, and he took her to his experiment workplace. He knew he'd have to work on her in a sterile environment. She climbed on the table knowing there was no way out saying again, "Remember don't wake me back up!"

Scalpel nodded not telling her that Megatron's standing order was to bring her back if she managed to live through the procedure. He had made a specialized adult size incubator to regulate her if she managed to make it through the procedure. Sure he was a small bug-like robot and had a bad habit of forgetting to put things back. But he was going to try his best to keep Maggie alive. He decided that hands would be best to work on the human so he launched his Haloform while she was going under. He worked quickly as he tried to create the very first human-robot hybrid. He looked at her bones on x-ray and gathered really lightweight metal form Decepticon, and Autobot remains. Once he was sure that she was under he opened her up, and removed all her bones replacing them with metal designed to work the same. Once that was done he put her in the recovery chamber it would keep her unconscious but support her life functions so that she would be ready for the next procedure.

He left to tell Megatron that she had successfully made it through the first procedure. Megatron was quite pleased saying, "If she lives through all three she will be a great asset to the Deception's."

Scalpel responded, "She will need two weeks recovery time before moving to the next step. During which she will be kept in stasis to assist with the recovery. "

Megatron nodded saying, "Keep me posted." He looked at the monitor in the room. He noticed the amount of Autobot activity in the area. He started yelling through the intercom, "Starscream status update! Have you located Sam's home and the E-bay glasses?"

Starscream replied, "We have located his home but not the location of the glasses. She is trying to gain entrance now as we speak."

Megatron growled, "Hurry up there is too much Autobot activity in the area. I don't want them getting the glasses first." Megatron pounded the wall as he grabbed more dark Energon it looked as if he'd have to go himself.

~ Two Weeks Later ~

Scalpel put Maggie back on the table this time slowly removing her blood and replacing it with Energon making sure to keep a close eye on her vital signs. He wondered if he was successful if this would give him more Decepticon patients to work on. He would prove that he could be a good doctor. He watched as the red slowly exited her body, and blue entered this is where all his other subjects died on him. So he proceeded real slowly stopping every time her vitals went down. It took him three days to complete the transfer but it had been successful. He wasn't sure what kind of recovery time was needed none had made it this far, and he didn't want to lose her. He put her into the recovery chamber before reporting to Megatron.

He went to his leader and said, "Lord Megatron she has lived through the second procedure. While she recovers I ask for a few others to practice the last procedure only on. I need to know how to help her live through it. No one else has made it this far."

Megatron replied, "Request granted just dispose of all the other humans once you're done." He was beyond pissed he hadn't heard from Starscream at all and he wasn't responding to communication. He took off out the building to go see Starscream and Sam Witwicky. He was getting to the bottom of this one way or another.

Scalpel went to work on his new victims practicing the last procedure while keeping an eye on Maggie's vital signs. It took him two weeks to learn enough to keep one alive through the procedure but he died within days. Scalpel finally felt confident enough to try it on, Maggie.

He pulled Maggie out hoping she had enough recovery time and started the last operation. Making sure he followed her vital signs carefully throughout the procedure, and for a few hours afterward. Once they leveled out and remained stable he contacted Megatron through the com link saying, "Maggie has made it Lord Megatron, and is in the recovery chamber I am awaiting your orders."

Megatron replied, "Have someone transport her in the recovery chamber to me. I need her help in getting the cube before the Autobots do. The Autobots would never hurt a human so she is key, as long as she has the cube they won't attack."

Scalpel replied, "Understood Lord Megatron I will send her right away." He left and searched until he found Brawl once he found him he said, "You will take precious cargo to Megatron."

Brawl nodded as he transformed into a tank. Scalpel loaded the recovery chamber into the tank it wasn't very easy to do but he had managed. Once she was secured Scalpel left, and let Brawl race off to Megatron. Brawl made it to Megatron quickly no one tried to stop the tank, and he just ran over anything that happened to be in his way.
