Ratchet, for the first time in his time as a medic, didn't know what to do. He didn't even know that you could bond with dark energon, he didn't think it was possible, he knew that Megatron had forced the dark energon into his own spark to gain it's powers, but did that mean that by destroying a certain piece of dark energon, you would kill him? And if so, was it possible that, the piece of dark energon he had bonded with, was his knew spark? It would certainly explain how he kept coming back from the dead.
Gemstar groaned from the medical table she was fastened to, she had stopped struggling after twenty minutes, and now only now and then did she move, and she usually appeared to be in pain. Optimus had gone to his private quarters fuming, he was out for revenge, and Megatron was going to be on the receiving end.
"Gemstar, can you hear me sweetspark?" Ratchet asked her gently, he knew that talking to a stressed patient was good, and he also hoped for any kind of reply, anything at all.
She groaned and tilted her head towards his voice, her closed optics opening a fraction of an inch.
"Don't worry, it'll all be alright" he told her gently rubbing her face plates with his fingers, her eyes closed again and she lay still.
Jack had been sitting very still, eyes closed, thinking, for about ten minutes. Raff had watched him worried and Mieko kept poking him, but nothing would stir him from his sleep like trance.
Megatrons alive, in dark energon…where is the energon?
The base? No, too obvious, somewhere Megatron would always remember, somewhere close to him, yet far away at the same time…
Jacks eyes snapped open and Mieko yelped jumping away from him, he had two theories, either one was a possibility. And the second one was the most likely of the two, so he decided to try that one first.
"Guys, fancy sneaking out through a ground bridge?" Jack asked his fellow humans, Raff nodded solemnly, knowing this was all to save Gemstar, Mieko, grinned mischievously, already planning how to get out.
Ratchet heard the whirring of the ground bridge and span around, the only thing he saw, was the back of Mieko's head as she vanished into the green glow of the bridge, Ratchet cursed in his head, and ordered Bulkhead and Arcee to follow them, they did so unquestioningly. Ratchet turned back to Gemstar and noticed something, in her leg, glowing ominously, he hadn't noticed it before, but now the light was hitting it at a certain angle, he could see it perfectly.
"Dark energon"
Jack ran leading the other two through the masses of dead zombies and looked around, he figured, that Megatron would leave his life force, the dark energon, somewhere that no autobot would even consider looking, amongst the dead. He climbed up to the peak as Mieko and Raff began moving shards of metal around to get a better look. He looked around the graveyard and spotted something glowing darkly, he yelled at the other two and pointed towards it, then climbed down and ran with them to see it. A shard of dark energon, but, it had been snapped in half…
I know this chapters short, I promise the next one will be longer, oh and thank you AlienKittenwithClaws, I though Gemstar was a nice name to, keep reviewing peeps!
