Rewinds Revelations
Krok as Spinister said is a war history archivist. The Decepticons cause when it is created Krok believed in it. Rewind began to have doubts about many things he was led to believe. Misfire talked and his alternate mode would number one chatter box kind of reminded Rewind of Bluestreak with no sense of aim. It was from Misfire he learned about Chromedome. The Jet tried to cover it up. Spinister said that Overlord did some things to him and the impression the surgeon implied it was not within in his skill set.
"I babbled too much." Spoke Misfire wings are still drooping.
"No it was an accident." Spoke Rewind finding odd to reassure a Decepticon. "What happen to Krok?"
"The D.J.D. happened." Answer Misfire softly remembering back. "When we found Grimsy he was practically braindead not much happening in the processor. None of us were very strong at fighting so we figure Grimsy could help us out. In the end the D.J.D. found energy signature of Overlord and decided that they have bigger priorities than us. "
"That is still not telling what happen to Krok." Noted Rewind in an even tone.
"In the battle I tried to help Krok out with Vos." Spoke Misfire in a grin. "I was trying to shoot at Vos. Vos put his face on Krok and ruined it. "
"Misfire according to the records has worst aim than Swerve." Thought Rewind in retrospective. "The Decepticon Justice Department named themselves out of cities that Megatron conquered or became allied with in beginning the war." Then spoke. "So the D.J.D. uh is after the Lost Light?"
"I guess." Answer Misfire in a shrug of indifference. "I never really thought about it. They said the D.J.D. was after Overlord so if he happened to be aboard the Lost Light it would be logical conclusion. We were just grateful for the D.J.D. for leaving us on Clemency. As a result we are on the list."
` Rewind ponders what Misfire said. It still burn Rewind that the Decepticons did not care about Lost Light but why should they care about his former ship since they never knew existed. It hard to be really upset by the Scavengers and the actions on Clemency it really had nothing to do with Lost Light. It was the fact the Overlord life sign or signal save their collective lives.
"Misfire feeling better." Spoke Grimlock looking at the diminutive Autobot. "Rewind, okay?"
"No." Spoke Rewind looking afraid of the giant robot. "You are in robot mode."
"Robot mode work better." Spoke Grimlock in a nod. "Other mode preferred."
"Do you miss the Autobots?" Ask Rewind curiously.
"Miss some. Miss not." Spoke Grimlock kneeling down to the data plug. "Scavengers made Grimlock better."
"Well I guess there place you want off." Spoke Krok looking at the two Autobots in a weary look. "Let me know."
"Me not go, Krok." Spoke Grimlock in a firm tone.
"This is the W.A.P. and it Decepticon class ship." Spoke Krok looking at Rewind for support. "It is a not a neutral ship or an Autobot ship, but a Decepticon ship. At least I keep telling my crew not to adopt stray Autobots."
Rewind merely nodded at Krok and look at him in his blue eyes. "Spinister does not want you to worry but to heal."
"I know." Nodded Krok in a slight irritated tone at the W.A.P.'s medic's action. "This team of mine are not really proper Decepticons."
Rewind although that may be true but it wiser to say nothing on the Scavengers uh Decepticon-hood. "Misfire hinted all you guys on the List."
"Scrap." Spoke Krok in mild disgust. "Asking for clemency from the Autobots might be better."
Rewind watches Krok head to the bridge of the part of him felt pang of empathy for the Decepticon captain of the W.A.P. They were criminals by Decepticon and Autobots standards and in truth Grimlock and himself were treated in bizarre fashion of being honored guests. Rewind reflects on the Autobots about these Decepticons are scraping by and the offered aid to their enemies without asking anything in return. Rewind felt inkling of shame with the knowledge that what the treatment will be for them. Rewind wonder would the Autobots do the same thing as these Decepticons if the roles are reversed. Rewind knew what the Answer is already.
"Bah, don't worry about us." Spoke Crankcase looking at Rewind.
"It is not fair." Spoke Rewind back vehemently.
"Never was." Spoke Crankcase in a cold glare. "Most of just did what had to do survive. That is not really crime. You are surviving with the damage and feel diminished somehow."
"I can record but not access." Spoke Rewind looking at Crankcase
"I can think with a headache." Spoke Crankcase pointing to his head. "Adjust and make do."
"Then why do have me here?" Ask Rewind
Crankcase looks at the small bot in mild disgust. "I know we are not most sympathetic group but we need an outside person to pinpoint what is going on."
"Troubleshoot." Spoke Rewind
"Grimlock needs to be reminded that he is an Autobot." Spoke Crankcase in a snort.
Rewind listens to Krok's history of War and it was fascinating. Spinister gave him Rewind a Datapadd to record and archive it all. Spinister simply it was function and it was important and Rewind learn that that the Decepticon way of caring. Misfire loved to talk and having someone talk to was nice. More than anything Misfire love stories would listen raptly to Rewind as he told the tales from the Golden Age. Rewind wonders how much of what Misfire said was true. Grimlock never stray too far from the purple jet at times. Then last member of study is Fulcrum and he is K-class but highly secretive and very intelligent. Fulcrum is newest member of the W.A.P. and tends to gives tolerant smiles to Misfire and wary glance to Grimlock.
"Misfire is soft spark." Thought Rewind watches the Decepticon in a faint smile.
"You are thinking again Rewind." Spoke the purple Jet in a slight shrug.
