Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers, they are owned by Hasbro. This is after Alexis was brought back to the Autobot base and is recovering from what happened to her. There is no slash here. This is strictly a fan fic. No flames or harsh comments. Constructive criticism welcome. enjoy!
Starscream was sitting in a chair next to the berth his beloved sparkmate was laying in, deep in recharge but had his systems set so that the slightest little noise from his sparkmate would wake the seeker up. Alexis had been in recharge for several days now, and each day Starscream stayed in the med bay with her. Starscream watched like a hawk as letting her out of his sight was what got her in trouble in the first place.
Prime, understanding what Starscream was going through, juggled the other Autobots around to cover the shifts that Starscream would have covered if Alexis had not been in the med bay after such a traumatic situation. Starscream could only hope that Primus deleted her memory of that horrible time, but he understood that she would need a lot of love whether or not she remembered it. He did his best to support her while she lay there, unconscious.
Red Alert watched the pair as they sat in his med bay. Red, upset that the bot he considered somewhat of a "daughter" was lying there, had done his best to repair Alexis. Now all that was left was for Alexis's transformer body to make its own repairs. Alexis's dents were still obvious as were the deep cutting indents in her wrists and ankles. The damage done to her faceplate had been repaired by Red Alert, but the scratches to her interfacing port would need to heal on their own. All the Autobots had been happy to learn that Megatron had not interfaced with her, but when Alexis came back looking like she had the tar beaten out of her, the Autobots got mad, especially Starscream.
Starscream suddenly awoke out of his recharge, having felt a pulse in his spark. He looked around, but found that things had not changed, including that Alexis was still out cold on the berth. While he continued to wonder what was going on, he felt the weak pulse in his spark chamber again, though this time it was a little stronger than the last.
'Screamer, you saved me' came the weak pulse, and Starscream realized that even though she was in recharge, Alexis was reaching out via their sparkbond.
'I wasn't in time to save you completely' Starscream shot back, sadness overcoming his being.
'Star' came the weak reply, 'you did your best. You stopped him from raping me. And thanks to you, you will be the first I interface with.'
Starscream froze for a second. Was it really true? Had he stopped Megatron before the big oaf could defile Alexis? Starscream did not sense the pulsing spark anymore. When he looked back, he could tell that Alexis had returned to deep recharge. Starscream was still angry that he was not able to prevent Megatron from taking Alexis in the first place. It was because Starscream was caught unaware that Megatron even got a hold of the beautiful, loving femme. Starscream then felt an intense pulse. He turned toward Alexis, still seeing her in recharge mode, but feeling a strong pulse coming from her.
'Screamer, I feed off your feelings. If you can't at least be grateful that you saved me, then leave.'
Starscream was scared. How did she know? But then he realized that he must have been sending his thoughts unconsciously across their bond. As soon as he realized his mistake, the seeker began sending strong pulses of unconditional love to his sparkmate. To his great surprise, she was healing much quicker than she had been. He never realized that he had sent all his concerns and worried across their sparkbond. Now that he knew what he was doing, he could send her love and all the warm emotions that he felt for her and with her. Her spark was starting to grow stronger and her body's self repair was repairing at a much faster rate.
While she was still deep in recharge, Red Alert noticed the changes. Not having bonded before, he could not explain why her body was repairing itself more at a normal rate now versus the slow rate it had gone before. But, Alexis was a long way from being out of the woods. While her physical body began to heal, no one knew what she would be like emotionally or psychologically as she had been in Megatron's custody for several days, suffering from constant abuse and unwanted as well as unwelcome sexual attention from the Decepticon leader.
Starscream, after closing communication with his bond mate, then became furious, If he loathed Megatron before, he despised the 'former even more so now that Megatron had stooped so low as to take Starscream's beloved sparkmate, Alexis. Starscream knew Megatron's one weakness, which Megatron did not realize that the seeker knew. And this one piece of information was going to help the Autobots destroy the foolhardy Decepticon leader, who was not as smart as he thought he was.
Having left the med bay for a quick relief flight, Starscream, keeping in touch with his sparkmate through their sparkbond, flew alone in the night sky. The glowing stars made him long for the times he would be able to do this with his sparkmate by his side. But deeper inside the seeker, where the sparkbond was not connected to, the seeker began formulating a plan to get rid of the Decepticon leader, and this time it would work, as Starscream would not attack alone, he would have the Autobots with him. Starscream realized that not only would destroying Megatron bring peace for the universe, but it would allow him to have a family without worrying about someone killing his little sparklings or his sparkmate. And so, after clearing his head, the seeker saved the plan in his processor, as he would wait to enact it until he beloved sparkmate came back to him.
Megatron, I will get you for what you did to my beloved Alexis and the next time we meet, you will die!
