Jacks pov

After Knockout finished pushing the drill into the back of my head he grabbed another injection needle with more nanobots and injected them into the back of my neck just below the drill, I could feel the metal and wires welding to my skin, nerves system and brain.

Once he finished he turned me around so I was on my back again, he then smirked at me and I glared at him with anger in my eyes, he then lifted a container that was the same height as me and was filed with a green liquid and some odd looking shapes in-side, I looked closer at the shapes, they looked like….organs!

Fear grabbed my heart and I looked up at Knockout, he smirked down at me "now this may hurt a bit" he said in an evil chuckle as he picked up the scalpel, he slowly placed the point at the scanter of my chest just below my collar-bone, he then pushed it DEEP into my chest right through my bones like they weren't even there and cut straight down my abdomen.

I wanted to scream so much, I wanted everyone to know the pain I was going through, but I kept it in.

He removed the scalpel from my body and placed it to the side, and what he did next will haunt me for the rest of my life.

He used his long sharp claws/fingers to pry my chest open, I felt sick at the sight in front of me, there, right in-front of my own eyes, was my own organs, my heart pumping, my lungs taking in air and pushing it out, even my stomach and intestines, my warm-thick-blood ran down my sides, I felt like throwing up, but I couldn't.

Knockout then reached into the green liquid container and pulled out an organ, it was made of smooth blue/silver-metal, it looked similar to normal organs but was a completely different shape, he placed it inside me and I felt it move around my organs, like it was alive! And then I felt it clamped onto my stomach, cutting into the flesh and moulding itself to my insides, it was gross, painful, uncomfortable and disturbing.

Knockout then placed three more organs inside me, one clamped and merged to my left lung and one to my right lung, the final one merged with my heart, it was so pain full, it was like needles were sticking into my heart, you know heart burn? Well this was ten-times worst, no, a thousand-times worst.

Knockout then pulled out some more nanobots and polled the silver liquid into my opened insides, the liquid moulded around my organs and new metal ones, slowly the metal and flesh moulded together and the silver liquid faded into my insides.

Knockout then pushed my open chest closed and injected more nanobots into me, and then my skin began to close back together, until there weren't any marks left to say that I just had my insides opened.

The pain was still there, it hurt so bad I didn't think it would get any worst…but I was wrong, so wrong.

I looked up at him with anger in my eyes, but then I heard something and then felt two metal bars, one around the top of my head and the other around my chin, holding my head in place, I looked at him and pulled out one last object from the green liquid container and showed it to me….it was and eye, no not an eye…an optic, a bright-blue, human sized, optic.

I knew what was going to happen next, I tried to move my head but it was useless, not only were the clamps holding me down, but also that serum he injected me with was still in effect, I couldn't move, he then injected my left eyebrow with something and soon my left eye closed and I couldn't open it, but my right eye was just fine.

With my right eye I saw Knockout grab the scalpel again and brought it to my left eye that was shut, he carved down from my eyebrow over my eye and stopped just above my check, he then placed the scalpel down and slowly pilled-back my cut eyelids, he then pulled out a tweezer-like object, he then moved closer to my left eye and slowly grabbed it, the sharp metal gripping into its flesh was painful, he then slowly pulled at it, I felt it slowly being pulled out of its socket, and then he yanked it out and cutting the optic-nerve and a shot of pain as he did so, I felt the blood flow down from my eye-socket and pass my mouth, he then brought the blue optic to my eye socket, wires shot from it into my socket and attached itself to my nerves and pulling the blue optic into place in my eye socket, Knockout then injected more nanobots into my open wounds and soon they closed and the metal bars retracted back into the table freeing my head.

Then I began to see out of my new eye, my optic, at first it was blurry but then it was clear as day, I could see everything more clearly with my new optic, I could see into the darkness with no problem, Knockout then came into view and data started to pop up in my left optic, things like his name, rank, vehicle mode, weapons and etc. most of it was in cybatronion and I couldn't understand it, it then got annoying and I just wanted it to stop and just as I thought that, it stopped.

Knockout then pulled out some more nanobots, he sent a beam of, what I believed to be, commands to the nanobots, he then brought the needle to the right side of my chest and pushed it deep into me, at least 1L of nanobots were injected into me and when he pulled the needle out I felt a great indescribable pain, I felt and heard my ribs/bones crack, snap and brake in my chest, my mussels ripe and tear, and my skin become hard, thick and tight, soon a metal-plat covered the right side of my chest, in the middle of the metal-plat was circler out-line and a line going down the middle of it, the circle out-line then opened and I saw an empty compartment in-side, it looked big enough to put two pairs of hands inside it, I wondered what it was for?

I didn't have time to think because there was a clank and a row of needles filled with nanobots, blood and Energon rose up from the table and were pointing down at me.

Three were either side of my legs, three along both my stretched out arms and three on both my sides, so there were eighteen all to gather, six filled with blood, six filled with Energon and six filled with nanobots.

Knockout then pushed a button on the desk and then metal clamps appeared around my wrists and ankles, my body was spread out like a T shape, he then pushed another button and I saw electricity and sparks fly from the needles, he then approached a leaver and griped it, he looked at me and grinned, an evil glint in his eyes.

"This will hurt…. ALOT!" he said with sicking joy in his voice, he then pulled down the leaver and the needles plunged into my body and electricity shocked my being, it didn't just shock my body it shocked my very soul, pain flowed into my body with the blood, Energon, nanobots and electricity, I couldn't even begin to describe the pain I was in, soon all the pain from the operation….no, experiment, and the openings that were still open soon healed and faded, my skin became harder, tighter, tougher, but stayed just as sensitive as it always was, and my mind became better, faster, like it was now half CPU (an Autobots brain if you didn't know), the electricity stopped and the needles retracted from my body and went back into the table but the clamps stayed in place.

I was so tired and weak, but I stayed awake and glared at Knockout, but then my attention was brought to the open compartment in my chest, but it wasn't empty this time, no, this time it had something in it…a SPARK.

A bright-blue posing spark in my own chest "that's YOUR spark" Knockout said but my vision was fixed to MY spark as Knockout stated "a spark is a cybatronions soul, that is your soul, I could just crush it and end your life right now, but we have bigger planes for you" Knockout stated and turned round, he hit a button and the table I was on went to a vertical angel so I was up right and could see the room once more.

Knockout then turned and left the room and the doors hissed shut behind him, I then looked down at my open chest plat and exposed spark, I wished for my chest to close again and protect my spark from harm and to my surprise the compartment in my chest closed and hid my spark, I then started to think of what Knockout said and what would happen to me, but I still believed my friends would come…no not friends, FAMILY.

Five minutes passed and Knockout returned with something in his hand/servo, it looked like a disc "what's that for?" I asked finally able to speak again, he looked at me and smirked.

"So we can speak again, huh?" he mocked me and walked up to me "what is it?" I asked again, he brought it up to my face and smirked.

"This is a virus that I'm going to put into your mind/CPU and then use you to destroy the Autobots" he said with a grin "I will never do what you SAY!" I shouted back, but he just smirked and looked at me.

"Oooohhh, but you will, you see you won't have any control over your body and we will use you to not-only destroy the Autobots, but everyone you know and care for" he said leaning back and grinning down at me.

I couldn't believe what I was told, I would be used to hurt my family, Ratchet, Fowler, Bulkhead, Miko, Bumblebee, Raf, Optimise, mum….Arcee.

"NO!" I shouted in my mind "I WONT LET IT HAPPEN!" I then felt my anger boil in-side me, I pulled at the clamps holding me back.

There was aloud clan and Knockout looked at me and realized the clamps were braking, he reached for a needle but it was too late, I broke the clamps holding me and leapt forward punching Knockout to the ground, I then grabbed him by the foot and flung him into a wall, I was shocked at my new strength but quickly focused on my target, Knockout got up but I then jumped at him and with my right hand/claw I started clawing, punching and throwing him into the walls.

After I beat him senseless I grabbed the disc he was once holding and crushed it, destroying it, I then ran to the doors and pried them open and ran down the halls, I was right about being on the Nemesis, I ran down the halls and knocked out a guard in-front of some doors.

I ran in-side and saw a ground bridge; I jumped up to the controls and punched in some coordinates and activated the ground bridge, I jumped down and ran into the activated portal, I came out the other side into a forest, the sky was filled with dark clouds, I looked back and the green vortex disappeared, I looked down to see a puddle and I saw my reflection, I saw my new optic and the scare that ran-down were Knockout had cut it open, I looked at the rest of me and saw more of the Decepticons handy work, but I knew I couldn't stay I had to get to shelter and away from this area in-case they came after me, so I began my walk into the unknown.

End flash back

Back at Autobot base

Normal pov

Jack had just finished his story of what happened on the Nemesis just before the Autobots came to try and rescue him, bumblebee was holding a very sad Raf and trying to comfort the boy, Miko and Fowler were trying to calm and sooth June who had dried tears on her face other the pain her son went through, Fowler had a discussed face on because of what the cons did to an innocent young boy like Jack, Miko had a sad and sympathetic face for Jack and the pain he's been through, Ratchet was angry that medical nonleague was used for such a terrible sin like what they did to his young human friend, Bulkhead was so enraged with anger to the cons that he punched the wall with great force, Arcee was angered that the cons would go so far as to make a weapon out of one of their friends but mostly she was sad that Jack had to go through something like that and then be alone for a hole month to deal with it alone, Optimus was ashamed with himself and guilty for not protecting a member of his family and letting them do such a thing to them.

"Sshhhh….sshh, it's alright Raf, it's alright" Bumblebee chirped to his little friend "Bumblebee's right Raf, it's okay" Jack said to his young friend, everyone looked at him with surprise faces at what he just said.

"You…you can understand me?" Bumblebee asked Jack who nodded back "but how is that even possible?" Ratchet asked looking at Jack, Jack flew down to the human area next to his mum and looked back at the medic.

"Well, you know the nanobots that were injected into my body?" Jack asked and everyone nodded slowly "well it turns out that they like me, and soon after I escaped they told me more about the changes to my body, they can even upgrade my body to any environment, even translate different langue's human or cybatronion" "that's remarkable" Ratchet said looking at Jack with wide optics.

Jack then turned to his mother and looked her in the eyes, stained tears on her checks, he gave her a warm smile "Jackson Darby you have a lot to answer for being away a hole month" June said in a playful voice, Jack smiled at her and stepped closer so he was two feet away.

"I know mom, but first, can you do me a favour?" he asked and she looked at him with a confused look "I want you to put out your hands and close your eyes" "but, why?" she asked him back confused at his request "please, trust me" he responded, she was hasty at first but did so and put out her hands and closed her eyes.

After a second of waiting June felt something warm and fuzzy in her hands "alright, you can open your eyes now" Jack said and she did, she looked at her hands and was shocked.

In her hands, was a spark, she looked up at Jack and noticed the right chest-plate was open and she realised it was HIS spark.

"Jack, this is" June started in a whisper staring at the floating, warm, pulsing object in her hands "I figured, that letting you hold my very life in your hands is one way to say sorry for making you worry for so long" Jack said to his mum with happy eyes "your, literally, holding my life in your hands, mom" "it's so warm" June said looking into it, Miko, Raf and Fowler walked up to have a look.

"Cool" Miko whispered looking at the blue-orb.

"Wow" was Raf's statement as he adjusted his glasses.

"Amazing" Fowler said looking at the orb of energy, he looked closer and realized something "it's….beating?" he then looked at Jack.

"It's beating in tune with my heart" Jack stated, he then rubbed his chest a bit "Jack, What's wrong?" June asked looking at him.

"Oh, it's nothing; you see I'm a technorganic now, so I need both heart and spark to live" he said calmly like it was nothing, but June then went into panic mode because she was holding his spark and he needed it to live "w-well put it back if it's that important!" June said bringing his spark back to him with worry on her face, Jack smiled and took back his spark and placed it back in his chest compartment that shut after-word.

"so, Jack" Miko started coming up to him, Jack knew what was going to happen "so what weapons do you have, how fast can you go, how strong are you now, do have any powers, how high can you fly, what….?" "Mikoooo!" Bulkhead warned stopping the young girl from going on.

"Well Miko, I can do several things, but the main thing I can do is pretty impressive" Jack stated looking at her "Bulkhead, you don't mind if I use you to demonstrate, do you?" "Of course not kid, I'm stronger than I look" Bulkhead said with pride in his voice, Jack stepped closer to Bulkhead and raised his right hand to him "this may hurt a little" Jack warned.

All of sudden a blue beam shot out of Jacks hand and hit Bulkhead in the chest and blue energy flowed from Bulkheads chest and into Jacks hand, Bulkhead soon fell to his knees and hands, the blue beam then stopped and everyone was shocked at what just happened.

"Jack, what was that?" Optimus asked helping Bulkhead up to his feet and looking at the young man "well, I'm sort of a cybatronion vampire, I can drain Energon from any cybatronion and eat raw Energon, I can eat raw Energon because my body can process it into normal Energon to flow around my body, but that's not all I can do" Jack stated as outstretched his hand palm side up showing the metal circle in the palm of his hand.

Then all of a sudden a small blue orb appeared floating in the middle of his hand "what is that?" Arcee asked looking at the baseball sized orb "its 90% of Bulkheads pure Energon, I can make Energon orb's and use them like ammo, or crystalize them like this" Jack said and then the blue-orb turn into a solid crystal-blue-orb and fell into his hand "I can also put Energon into others" the crystal-blue-orb then turned back into energy and Jack threw it at Bulkhead, the orb went into Bulkhead and he stood up on his own, regaining his strength.

"I can still eat normal food and sleep and all-that, but I now need to take Energon as well" Jack explained, he then walked up to Bumblebee "and how strong I am" he then lifted Bumblebee up with one hand "I can lift mech's like Bumblebee with ease, but when it comes to mech's like Bulkhead and Optimus I tend to struggle a bit" Jack said as he walked up Miko.

"How high I can fly depends on the altitude and amount of oxygen, because I still need to breathe, how fast I can run, I guess I can run slightly faster than Arcee when she uses her boost mode, how fast I can fly is much different, I can fly faster than a jet, depending on the amount of Energon I need, and I know I can because I've had to fight in mid-air with some con-jets before, my weapons are my fists, claw hand, Energon orbs, my scythe and medical equipment I…" "Wait a minute, medical equipment?" Ratchet asked cutting Jack off.

"Oh, yes, I forgot to mention that" Jack said looking at the medic, he then brought his left arm up and showed the metal-plating on/in his arm, the plating then moved away showing some human sized cybatronion tools "it seems they wanted me to be well equipped for battle and be able to fix myself while in battle, but I hardly know that much about cybatronion biology so I couldn't fix my wounds that well" Jack stated closing the compartment in his arm.

"Well, if you want, I could teach you more about medical care and our biology if you want?" Ratchet said looking at Jack who looked back with a smile "that would be cool, thanks Ratchet" Jack replied "so, any more questions?" he asked looking round.

"No Jack, I believe that's it for now" Optimus said to the young man "alright then, Arcee can we go for a drive?" Jack asked looking at his partner and one he loves with all his might, she looked at him and smirked "you got it partner" she replied with a smile before transforming into her motorcycle form.

Jack grabbed his cloak and put it on; he then picked up his scythe and slides it onto his back through the slits and holes in his cloak and walks up to Arcee "you're bringing that with you?" she asked as he sat in her saddle and put his helmet on "I haven't got blades built in my arms Arcee" and with that they sped out of base and into the desert.

They drove down the desert road enjoying each other's company "I've missed it" Jack said as they drove along.

"Missed what exactly?" Arcee asked tilting her mirrors to look at him "just…everything" Jack started "Bumblebees childlike beveller, Miko and Raf playing games together, my mom's protective nature, Fowler popping up unexpected, Bulkhead smashing one of Ratchets tolls and him laying 'Bulkhead I needed that!' that made me want to laugh my head off, Optimus's cool and level headed stature….but the thing I missed most was you and our long drives out hear"

A few minutes passed before Arcee spoke up "Jack I need to tell you something" Arcee said as she pulled over to the side of the road, Jack goy off Arcee and she transformed into her robot mode.

"Okay Arcee so what do you want to tell me?" said looking up to her and all her beauty, she knelt down so she was eye level with him, she loved his raven hair and blue-grey eyes….eye and spark melting smile.

She took in a deep breath and braced herself "Jack, I want to tell you that….."
