Eh, I'm shot for ideas for 'On the Other Side', so I'm taking a quick break and writing up the next chap for 'Cartoon Heroes'. Enjoy.
"Lord Megatron, we have the two Autoidiots." Shift was half dragging, half carrying a snoring Sunny, as he'd passed out on the way over to the Decepticon base. Sides was being shadowed by Quake, who really wanted nothing to do with the male human.
"Excellent. Get Starscream, and show him this. It'll be good for a laugh."
"No offense, Lord Megatron, but I really want to put him down. He's drooling on my shoulder." Shift said with disgust. Quake smirked at her friend's misfortune.
"Fine. Starscream shouldn't be back here until morning anyway. Put them in the Holding cell for now."
"But they'll find a way out."
"I don't care! Just do it!"
-
Shift dumped Sunny unceremoniously into the Cell, Quake pushing Sides in after him. Sunny hadn't woken up at all, but proceeded to snore louder. "CAN'T YOU SLAGGIN' SHUT HIM UP? SOME PEOPLE WANT TO RECHARGE HERE."
"The human term is 'sleeping' and that would mean waking him up." Sides retorted.
"Whatever, just shut him up!" Quake snarled and stalked off. "Shift, you take the first watch. I need slee- RECHARGE. ARGH."
"But-! Ugh." Shift sat down, back to the wall and sighing. "If you two really want to get out of there, you'll have to get some sleep too." She called to the prisoners in the cell. "Frankly, I couldn't care less if you idiots escaped." 'Bah, they probably aren't even listening to me.' She though to herself.
But they were. And Sides was planning havoc and chaos for tomorrow.
-
"Sunny…Sunny, wake up."
"NOT SO LOUD. I CAN HEAR YOU JUST FINE." Sunny snarled, clutching his head. He was used to the sensation of a 'hangover', but the humans had worse ones…"My head feels like Grimlock decided to practice dancing on it…" He fell face first onto the floor, groaning, as Sides laughed.
"Serves you right for drinking so much last night." Sides said, prodding his brother's side with his foot.
"Blargh."
"I'm not quite sure what you just said, but you have to get up. The two girls who picked us up last night were Decepticons that got hit with Jack's ray like us. Now we're here, in the Holding Cell. I must say, they've really redid it since the last time we were here."
"Oh really? Tell me about it, I really don't feel like getting up at the moment." Sunny groaned again.
"But who'll I spread havoc and chaos with without you?" Sides said in a convincing 'baby brother-ish' tone.
"Did you say havoc and chaos? Hmmm…throw in some discord and I'll get up."
"Don't forget the anarchy. Discord goes great with anarchy."
"Alright, I'm up." Sunny staggered upright, still clutching his head. "Now, I wonder if anyone ever found our stash we hid a while back in here?"
"Hang on, I'll check. Primus, it's hard to move this floor panel when you're a human. Sunny, a little help?"
Finally, the pair managed to budge the floor panel and looked down into the hole. "Aw man! It's all gone!" Sides groaned. Indeed, the cleverly hidden smoke bombs, plasma grenades and various other explosives were gone. "How are we going to get out now?"
"Two thing, Sides. One, they would have been too big for us to use in our current state, and two, look!" Sunny pointed into the hole. If you looked close enough and at the right angle, you could see a human sized tunnel in the dirt below the Decepticon base. "Freedom! I wonder why we never noticed that before."
Sides shrugged. "I guess we were too big to notice it really, and even if we did, it was way too small for use to use. Last one in is a robo rat!"
-
After much exploration, they found out the tunnels were connected in a network that spanned all over the Decepticon base. One even popped up under Megatron's recharge bed.
"Do you know what this means, Sunny?" Sides asked as they climbed out of the tunnel and into their cell.
"We can make the Decepticons think their base is haunted?"
"Precisely what I was thinking. That, and that we could make money giving tours of the Decepticon base."
"Interesting idea, Sunny. But let's do the haunting thing first."
-
Starscream was unnerved.
Those humans…why weren't they making any noise lately? He had to check for himself.
Quietly opening the door to the cell, he soon realized that the humans weren't there. "LORD MEGATRON!" He screeched, and ran off, almost forgetting to shut the door behind him.
Skidding to a halt before the Decepticon leader, the Seeker screeched, "The prisoners are gone!"
"WHAT?! SHOW ME."
-
As the two mechs marched to the cell, Sunny and Sides climbed out of the hole and covered it with the metal floor panel. Both sat innocently on the floor as the Seeker barged in. They looked up at Starscream's surprised faceplates.
"Huh, the nerve of some people…or mechs." Sunny said, voice full of distain. "Barging into someone's room without even knocking."
"Yeah. Where are your manners?" Sides chided them.
Megs glared at Starscream, who sweatdropped. "But-But-but-!" He stuttered, and Megatron back handed him.
"You need your optics checked, you pansy!" Megatron stomped off, leaving a confused Starscream, who shut the door.
Once the Twins were sure the pair was gone, they high fived each other. "Alright, Sunny! That was the best prank we've done since we became human!"
"And it'll only get better…for us! Which reminds me, Ironhide said he was worried we were being too well behaved before we got captured."
"Well, he shouldn't worry. We'll get rid of the excess energy this way."
Alright, what do you think? Sorry, I sometimes forget my other fics for a while.
