Sorcerers of Sacor & Transformers: Mecha!Sorcerer

Author's notes:

General notes:

Here I am again! Another experimental story.

I normally get these ideas by randomly picking a fandom, of something I have read/seen before, and I read a few stories by my fellow writers (a big shout out to all you amazing guys!).

Shannon's (my oc) mechanical form was a dead idea that started years ago. I decided to resurrect it and found the Transformers fandom. By what I've read their fandom tends to use specialist vocabulary. I bet it's a good job that I enjoy Physics and Computer Science :)

I hope you like whatever I come out with in this one. Now for the disclaimer:

Transformers does not in any way belong to me, it has the full copyright of Paramount and Hasbro (I do not own it or related content).

I do however own the Sorcerers of Sacor series and related characters and content (including Shannon's Mechanical form).

Soundwave lay on his berth trying to drift into recharge. He thought of the dragoness. "~Shannon~" he whispered to himself, listening to himself mutter her designation. He couldn't bring himself to a calm recharge, he kept waking when he would drift off. He let worry plague his processor. 'Starscream, what are you doing with her' he wondered. Maybe the commanding bot would only want her to recharge by his side, to keep an eye on her, to make sure that she wouldn't escape. This string of thought helped him to drift into a much needed recharge cycle.

'Soundwave' he heard in his processor. He passed it off as a dream of the dragoness saying his designation. He turned over in his berth. 'Soundwave' her voice continued. He smiled beneath his visor. He immediately sat up and remembered that she had never called him by his designation, how could he recreate her voice saying his name. He wondered if she was telepathic. He concentrated on the silence of the night.

'Shannon?' He asked in his processor. He thought that he was imagining her voice and laid back down.

'Soundwave!' Her voice filled his processor and sounded happy yet scared. He sat back up.

'Where are you?' He asked the presence.

'I don't know my way around yet, if you could find me. Use my mental signature' she thought, the mech walked out of his dorm and into the corridors. He used the mental signature of the dragoness and came to the storage room. He looked around for her, and saw nobody. "~Shannon~" he whispered. Shannon smiled at him from the floor. He noticed that she had half concealed herself by some containers. He sat beside her and touched her back. She winced and curled away. "~Are you okay?~" he asked, "~What did Starscream want you for~"

She looked up at him with trauma in her eyes. He could guess what the dragoness had been through. He held her with care, being aware of her injuries. "~I'm sorry, come to medbay where you can heal your injuries~" he said. He saw that she couldn't walk and lifted her in his servos. He walked to the medbay and laid her on the medical berth. He ran a few scans and he watched the dragoness use blue energy to heal her own injuries. She sat up and watched the purple mech. "Thank you" she muttered. He turned around and hugged her. She began to chuckle. He looked at her and noticed that she had uncovered the pipes.

"~Do you trust me?~" he asked. He didn't get an answer and carried her to his dorm. He tried to put her on the floor but she had curled herself around the mech. He smiled and kissed her snout, before letting himself fall into recharge with the femme wrapped up against him.

"Soundwave, I entrust you that the dragoness is expecting a hybrid-" Starscream began. Soundwave stared at him. "What's up with you?" The silver mech asked.

"~I do not agree with your treatment of the dragoness~" Soundwave replied.

"Oh I see now. She is yours since the dragoness has clearly rejected me. Just make sure that you implement my plan" the first in command said.

The purple mech nodded and opened the office door. Shannon walked in smiling at him. She cowered when she saw Starscream. "Don't worry femme, you are now Soundwave's pet" he said. She clawed at the collar on her neck. Soundwave then wanted to prove his position in the command line. "~Transform~" he said. The dragoness stretched and transformed into her human form. Soundwave nodded and she used her wings to jump onto his right shoulder. She smiled at Starscream. "I see that you are in control of the femme" the commanding bot said.

"So here's the plan, the Autobots will distract the 'cons via an encrypted comm link. We go in the base in waves: Drift will be paired with myself, Knockout will go alongside Commander Peeron. Any questions" Syrih Takerra said to the assembly of Cybertronians and Sorcerers. The Cybertronians put down their battle masks and the Sorcerers donned their armour and helmets. Syrih spread her red wings, the swirling lines of yellow, orange and red were a sight of pure Sacorian beauty. Only this was a time of great need. Syrih tried to look professional, being second in command of the Rebellion Empire, but she knew the political and social consequences if the Empress was to be dispatched. The Empire would fall into chaos, Shannon bound each race of the Empire. The Garlcians and Cerconians would maintain their loyalty. Syrih wasn't sure of the Autobots in the future, or if the Magic Dragons or Cannis would stay by the dying race. She watched the two Cybertronians of the Rebellion look away when they realised that they had been eavesdropping on the Commander's thoughts. 'Drift, Knockout. In the Rebellion we have a constant mental link with every member' she thought to them.

'So we weren't prying into your minds' Drift said. Takerra smiled.

'No, it gives us a better organisation in battle. You will hear every mind in the army whilst we get our Empress back' she replied back into the mass shared mental communication.

Shannon leaned against Soundwave as they were all briefed by Starscream on the progress of the Decepticon mission. He kept an optic on the dragoness. He had completed the meeting and smiled at her. "Soundwave, take your pet to Breakdown for a test" he said. Soundwave led her to medbay and laid her on the berth. Breakdown ran one test on her, and it left her confused.

"Soundwave, the test reads negative. Starscream will not be satisfied, remember it is you or some other 'con. This is the fifth negative result" the medic said sending the report to Starscream.

"~I understand, but I don't want to betray her trust~" Soundwave replied. Shannon raised her head.

"Why does Starscream want hybrids" she said lazily.

"You see miss, he knows your power and the joining of our races produces more strength" Breakdown said and he turned to the other mech, "either you or the thought of other mechs implementing the plan." Soundwave walked to his dorm in silence, with Shannon in tow. He sat on his berth and the dragoness jumped next to him. She laid against him.

"I accept" she said nuzzling him. His visor heated slightly.

"~What do you mean?~" he asked.

"I'd rather you sire them than any other 'con on the base" she hummed. He grew embarrassed at this thought.

"~Are you. Are you sure~" he said. She kissed him.

"Yes" she purred.

Syrih and Taarin perched on their designated Cybertronians. Knockout turned his head to look at Taarin. "Aren't we going to be outnumbered?" He asked.

"Yes, but we need to minimise the casualties. I'm about to establish contact with the Empress now" the Rebellion engineer said.

'Empress, reply if you can hear us' the members of the Rebellion called out to their leader.

Shannon bolted awake at the familiar sea of voices that filled her mind. Soundwave came out of recharge. "~Are you okay?~" he asked. She jumped off the berth and stood on her hind legs to look out of the window. 'Greetings' she replied sarcastically. She smiled.

'Shannon! You sound like you're in good health' Syrih replied.

'It's good to hear from you' Taarin chipped in. Soundwave put his servos around her.

'I have a guard. Although he is taking care of me and keeping Starscream away from me' she replied to her crew. They came across Shannon's memory of the Decepticon leader and she almost lost her balance when the Sorcerers growled simultaneously. 'I'm okay now, Soundwave looks after me. No 'con knows of my position in the Empire, if they did I wouldn't have this much luxury' she thought to them.

'Shannon, that was the 'con that captured you. Anyway Starscream is going to feel the strength of Sorcerers when we get in the base' Syrih said. Shannon's eyes widened.

'Wait where are you?' she thought.

'We're on our way in, get to the main room so that we can offline that fragger' Drift added. The link's volume was lowered.

"Soundwave, I've got to see Starscream, and fast!" She exclaimed as she and the mech ran through the corridors to find the leader. He smiled deceptively at the dragoness.

"Starscream, would you want to set up a pact, between my people and the Decepticons" she said as quickly as she could. He scowled at her.

"Why would a civilian be authorised to do that?" He asked. She let her robes and jewellery show.

"I am Empress Shannon of the Rebellion Empire, would the Decepticons join or be in alliance with the Rebellion Empire" she said. He smiled.

"Yes of course. I will tolerate those Autobots if you would call off your colleagues" he said.

'I order you to stand down. You may enter in a civilised manner' she thought. The head 'con smiled. The Rebellion warriors entered the room and watched their Empress. "Decepticon Starscream" she said holding a paw out. He smiled and silently charged his arm canon, which Soundwave detected. The purple mech hit the commanding bot with a servo and Starscream fell back. "Soundwave, why did you strike me?" He asked. Soundwave stared at the mech on the floor.

"~You were attempting to offline Shannon~" he replied. Starscream got himself upright and frowned.

"It is a beast Soundwave. What worth is her life" he justified, the Sorcerers transformed into Dragons ready to fight.

"~Not only her life~" he said. Syrih jumped and kicked Starscream to the other side of the room, he hit the wall and temporarily offlined. Taarin motioned for the remaining Rebellion members to follow him. Soundwave followed them outside to protect the Empress. Starscream had recovered and was leaking energon from his side. "Soundwave, you can not call yourself a Decepticon. Since when did you care about this group" he said scowling at the purple mech. Soundwave stood defensively.

"~I cannot help the bond that I have developed for Shannon, mates never leave each other~" he said. The Sorcerers took flight, plus Drift, Knockout drove and Soundwave transformed into his jet alternate form.

"Converted another" Ironhide said smiling at Soundwave. Optimus furrowed his optic ridges.

"You have the nerve to sire a brood of sparklings to my femme" he said turning to Shannon, "how long."

"Due to be laid any day from now" she said.

Soundwave slowly arose from a recharge cycle and found that his mate had gone from his side. He stood and looked tiredly around. 'Come to medbay' Shannon's voice called into his processor. He walked quickly to medbay, excitement filling his spark. He couldn't wait to meet them, no, didn't Sorcerers lay eggs? Never mind, he was content to see them encased in shell or not. He knocked on the door and it opened. Knockout and Ratchet stood next to the crouched dragoness. "Just in time" Ratchet grinned. Shannon smiled at Soundwave, bearing the pain of labour. He softly felt the bump under his mate to notice how close the moment was. He held her paws as she let a few flecks of Blue Fire escape her gritted teeth.

The dragoness lay in silence. Soundwave had been intent on keeping her calm whilst occasionally watching the doctors help deliver his sparklings. He stroked her. "Soundwave, you might want to see these. She's just exhausted" Knockout said. The purple mech examined the nest of eggs, four eggs to be exact. The dragoness had outdone herself, and this news gave more hope to the Sorcerers within a short comm link away. "These are yours. In a month they'll be hatched. I congratulate you, and I'll say it to your femme once she wakes" Ratchet said leaving the three in medbay. Knockout smiled at the colourful clutch of eggs.

"They're beautiful" the dragoness said, she nuzzled her mate and curled around her brood. Soundwave sat still, not knowing what was expected of him. Shannon smiled. "Lay down next to the nest, let them feel their father's presence."

The mech then awkwardly curled up with the eggs and his mate.

"Empress, I would ask for you to put the young into good hands for the day, I trust you know what day it is" Taarin said at the door. Shannon and Soundwave carried the eggs to the humans.

"Do not harm them. I will violate the treaty if you do" she said. The two human males sat beside the nest, knowing that if they moved the dragoness would incinerate them. Shannon walked to the weapons room. "Optimus, are the Autobots ready" she said, getting her golden armour on. She donned her helmet and looked at the young prime next to the other. "They are ready, there is a chance that the Decepticons may prevail" he replied.

"I can hack Cybertronian processors, and Solia will feel pain when the 'con is liberated" she said. She pressed a few keys on the keyboard and scowled at the stats. She sighed. "The final battle in this fragging war. If the Rebellion fails, that means that the Sorcerers would have lost too many to live on. Extinction is slowly gaining on our ancient species" she continued. Ratchet scowled when the three juvenile Cybertronian Sorcerers came into the room, fully suited in armour.

"We're coming" Astra said.

"No you've got to stay-" Shannon started. Optimus sighed at his sparklings.

"Mum, how old were you when you began fighting?" Crossflight asked. Shannon shook her head.

"I was younger than you, about 10 Solar Cycles, when I was recruited into the Rebellion" she said, admitting defeat to the cunning CyberSorcerers before her. She smiled at her children as they stood on their back legs. "I would prefer you to stay with your unborn siblings, I still don't trust humans." The trio sighed and walked out to look after the eggs.

"Are they going to be okay? You know with it being the Final Battle" Nightshade asked. Astra blanked the humans who let them take the eggs.

"Mum will be more than okay little bro. We can use telepathy to assist them" Astra said. Crossflight furrowed optic ridges, being the most mechanical of the three.

"They'll find the eggs if we interfere, we must stay scarce" he said.

Shannon led the small army outside, she sent out a mental beacon. It didn't take long for Sorcerers, Cerconians and Garlcians to arrive to make the Rebellion Army a match for the Decepticons. The dragoness stopped when they assembled on one side of a valley. The Decepticon Army were at the other side. She was momentarily distracted by the quad of eggs that laid unaware of this event. She then became aware of the mental link between the entire army and shut off her emotions. '~Shannon, they'll be fine~' Soundwave thought. That was the last of the non-tactical communication. Shannon roared to signal their attack. 'Archers shoot with the elements! Everyone hold your ground we only move forward in this war' she ordered the army. They obeyed and the Sorcerers flew down the valley and intercepted the Decepticon army. Shannon had already knocked two 'cons unconscious. 'Why aren't we killing them?' A soldier asked.

'The Decepticons are not the enemy, Solia resides in Starscream's processor. I must hack into him' the Empress replied ripping off a servo. They were making swift progress, the magic cast upon the Rebellion army was preventing fatal injuries. Shannon glimpsed the Decepticon leader and snarled. His optics were purple, different from the red optics that she was accustomed to. "Starscream, you're not yourself. The dragoness named Solia is in your processor manipulating you!" She almost screamed at the Decepticon. She broke into his processor and he winced. She held him down whilst she ripped the dragoness' presence from his processor. When she had done the 'con cowered beneath her. His optics were red and widened at something he spotted behind her. She jumped onto the materialised dragoness behind her. Starscream stood and fired on Solia. He forced himself into the Rebellion link. 'And now we alligence with the winning side now that lizard is out of me' he said. The red dragoness growled with her wounded side. Shannon jumped into the sky and took all of the flight-capable Rebellion warriors and the Decepticons with her as they flew after Solia. The mingling of bodies, jets and military helicopters circled the dragoness. She blew fire to no affect on the mechanical 'cons. She screamed as the mass army fired on her. They parted when she was bearly in the air. Shannon jumped on her and took long scratches to Solia's body. Once on the ground, Shannon summoned all of her elements and saw the scared look in Solia's dark blue eyes. She let the immense energy rip from her jaw and onto the dragoness beneath her. The force was so much that she was propelled into the air. The stream continued for a few minutes until she stopped the energy, as her snout was beginning to itch. She landed and looked emotionlessly at the corpse. She looked around to see everyone bowing to her, even the Autobot and Decepticon leaders. She stood proud, haven liberated the universe of this monster. Optimus stared at the shredded corpse, "what shall we do with the corpse?" He asked. Starscream nudged the corpse with a pede.

"I suggest a swift incineration" he said. Shannon inspected the corpse, even in death she wore the revengeful expression on her face, or maybe the wind changed at the wrong time. She mused that thought and noticed that the dragoness' jewellery of the dead were still intact. She transformed into a human and carefully removed the feather from the cracked horn, and the scales from the brackets. They disintegrated into the air to form the silhouette of the individual who had been liberated by receiving their lost feature in death. She turned to the skeletal tail on the necklace, the first tribreed dragon. She carefully removed it and a dragon with feathered wings materialised from white light. "I thank you for avenging me. In death I have aged, I am Xenix, died aged 3 months" he said, and Shannon let the skeletal tail fuse onto Xenix's stump and grew to fit his new size. Scales and muscles formed around the bone and healed the limb. "I am honoured to meet you. May your soul live the life that Solia denied you" she said, her eyes tearing up. This dragon had lived in death, not as the dragon he should have been. The dragon was now describable as an angel. Died at 3 months old, all because Solia thought that he would grow up to be stronger than her. He put a paw on her shoulder. "Don't cry, I never really knew this world. Now I am free to roam in the heavens" he said nuzzling the Sorceress. He disappeared. She wiped the tears away and turned to the vile corpse.

"Dissipate, never to return" she growled in her native language at the corpse which set on Blue Fire and diminished into nothing. She looked at the sky and sighed. She set her eyes on each member of the victorious army before her. "War is over!" she shouted as she raised her azure blade, aka Steeeeeeve. The crowd cheered as they walked back to the base.
