Chapter Three
Somewhere amidst the outer rings of Saturn a titanic, damaged, alien ship floats among the space dust and derbies from the surrounding cosmic rings. Even though this ship appears abandoned and desolate the interior of this ship houses yet another type of alien cybertornian race, though this one much more fearsome and blood thirsty than their Autobot counter parts. They where know as Decepticons.
Through the cold, dank, corridors a gigantic figure stalks, its footsteps echoing off the metallic walls eerily. The con's figure was slight but burly as it clamored down the hallways in haste; its dark shadow danced across the walls sinisterly, resembling a great bird of prey somehow.
The decepticon rushed past the long, dark, hallways and entered into an even more equally dark and damp room the sound of dripping water could be heard from afar.
The darkness was abruptly priced by giant sets of ruby red optics. The darkness morphed to individual shadows as the different decepticons turned around stepped back somewhat so as to acknowledge the new additional shadow in their rank; though some doing so begrudgingly.
The tallest pair of optics shined sinisterly as they analyzed the shorter bird-like silhouette, then a deep, malice filled voice growled out into the darkness like an animal.
"Starscream! What is it this time you slanging piece of scrap"?
"My lord I have found something quite interesting" A high raspy voice spoke.
Suddenly the biggest shade moved into the light of a few cracks on the ship's hull that caused some stray reflected gaseous light to expose the creature. The sight was enough to send any human or bot to shudder in horror and dread.
Megatron, the infamous leader of the decepticons, stepped into the light and stalked closer to his second in command Starsrceam.
"What is it?" he grounded out impatiently.
Starscream tried not to visibly shuddered under the leader's harsh glare. Even he could recognize that his leader in a beyond fool mood today.
"Soundwave has located an old model of a cybertronian shuttle pod that was drifting through space and-" Megaton, swiftly like a hawk, brought his fist down on the other mech jaw before he could say another word and set him kneeling on the hard to the damp floor.
"You would dare to come to me with such useless information!" thundered the vicious decepticon leader as the other mechs stared silently at the scene from the shadows, wit a few grins here and there.
"Master let me finish!" Starscream pleaded as he coughed some pink liquid, energon, that was his life source.
"Go on" Megaton bit out.
Starscream repressed the urge to flinch in pain as he collected himself off the ground.
"Soundwave has analyzed the pod and reveled that there was another bot inside, but they are in status mode, and the pod bore no recognizable signatures or symbols of any fraction. It is a mystery how the pod is even still funcitional"
His small speech immediately interested everyone all at once as some deceptions in the back voiced out their suggestions.
"Silence" Megatron boomed turning to Starscream.
"Where is this rouge con heading"?
Starscream fidgeted slightly
"Well my lord I don't have any exact location…" Megatron once again grab hold of the Screamer and threw him off the ground by his neck a few human feet into the air.
As he brought the seeker against the wall he growled like an animal as he spoke in such a poison filled way to the struggling seeker in his grasp
"You wouldn't dare lie to me Starscream, would you" It wasn't a question more as it was a threat of pain for the choking seeker.
Megatron threw his second in command against the wall once again and asked again much more aggressively this time.
"Where was the pod heading Starsrceam!"
"E-earth my liege, Soundwave predicted the shuttle would crash land onto earth by '62lat and '03long in the state of Nevada in a little less than 400 hours" Starscream wheezed out the exact coordinates as he gripped his aching voice processor.
A dangerously poison filled smirk crossed over the decepticon leader's face revealing sharp, jagged, knife-like teeth. Megatron slowly collected himself as he turned to address his other subordinates with a scowl on his face.
"Well then what are the rest of you waiting for, prepare for your destinations and get ready to launch!" He yelled at them.
Wasting no time the rest of the decepticons quickly separated and made their ways to obtain supplies or fuel for the painstaking long trip to earth, now that their ship was damaged.
The scowl on Megatron's face soon turned back into a bone-chilling smirk as he turned once again to observe the pitch-black darkness that encompassed the ship
"Soon Optimus we will meet again and I will have my revenge".
Megatron growled a low throaty chuckle as the echoes of his threat still lingered in the air and his blooded red optics melted once again into the darkness.
Lol poor Starscream, but I had to put it in there. Megatron is just a mega meanie that way. Review.
