Chapter Nine
Rescued
I didn't have to wait long. The door to the room I was in suddenly opened and a familiar duo rushed in. I felt elation at seeing Jazz again and I reached out to him through the bond and with my arms. My newly fixed arm was no longer hurting and I upped my feelings through the bond.
Jazz was fast. He was faster than I expected and he scooped me up, pressing me against his chassis as he cooed down at me. The two humanoid Decepticons leapt into action and I squeaked painfully as I buried my face into the silver saboteur's chassis.
:No want!: I cried out over our bond as I clutched desperately to him. Sure, Soundwave was nice and all, but I didn't want to be here. :Leave now? 'Cons mean.:
Jazz growled and his engine roared deep within his chassis. Prowl had been busy with the humanoid Decepticons, Frenzy and Rumble – although I had no idea which one was witch – when Jazz looked towards them. He made some soothing clicking noises and send calming waves toward me as he retreated towards Prowl.
The silvery Decepticon shot little blades out of his chest, but Jazz managed to shift his arm into some sort of shield. His engine growled angrily and I knew that if the smaller Decepticons had the same type of bond with Soundwave that I had with Jazz…well, Soundwave was going to be here soon.
:'wave come. No want.: I said and my optics filled up with that strange fluid. Oh great, I was going to cry again. Haven't I done that enough since I got here? Jazz continued to deflect the small projectiles as Prowl shot his acid bullets at the two smaller Decepticons.
"'Ey! Soundwave told us to watch th' femme!" the purple one yelled out as if it made any difference. I squeaked as I pushed myself even closer to his chassis. When Jazz was able to get to Prowl, he gently deposited me into the white mech's arm. I let out a little whimper, not wanting either of them to be harmed just for rescuing me from the Decepticons.
"Jazz, Soundwave is most likely on his way. We must meet up with the twins and Ratchet and escape from Kaon in the quickest way possible." He said as the two started to run down the hallway. I could still hear the purple Decepticon shouting after us. This place was…creepy to say the least. Everything was in some shade of purple and things were glowing. Prowl kept me close to his spark as we ran down the many twisting halls. Every so often we would encounter a stray Decepticon, but Jazz was quick. He was good at his job. Prowl would try to cover my optics with his hand, but I could feel the grim satisfaction from Jazz as he incapacitated his foe.
We met up with the twins and Ratchet soon after. The twins had captured a band of Decepticons, tying them down with some sort of glowing rope. It was interesting to say the least. The two were having fun taunting them.
"Sunstreaker! Sideswipe!" Ratchet snapped at them, "This is no time to be fooling around. We have to get the femme back to base." He said. He then came over and that violating feeling washed over me again. I let out a small whimper and pushed myself against Prowl's chassis.
"Logic dictates that the femme does not enjoy being scanned, Ratchet." Prowl said in a warning tone. "Especially after the trauma she must have gone through."
The medic nodded his head thoughtfully, "You are probably right. I just wanted to make sure that Soundwave didn't do anything to her processor."
I instantly felt Jazz's worry spike and his small frame tensed. He prodded me through our bond and this time I was the one to send back comforting emotions. He relaxed slightly, but his visor was still bright. I don't suppose he would calm until we got back to their base.
"The lil femme says she's fine." Jazz told the conversing mechs. I snuggled into Prowl's arm again and let out a contented chirp. I wanted to go into recharge, but I was too scared to when I was in Decepticon territory.
"How do you know this?" Prowl questioned, but Ratchet just gave the silver mech a knowing look.
"You created an Adair-sparkling bond, didn't you? You are now her mech creator." The medic said. My optics widened and I jerked back, letting out a squeak of surprise. Hold the phone – he did what now? What's a mech creator? Is that the same thing as…a father?
I clamped the bond shut on my end, still surprised, but I think I might have hurt Jazz's feelings. He flinched when I shut my end of the bond and glanced my way before responding to the medic's comments.
"I did. I couldn' help it. It was there an' she needed help. 'Er spark was callin' out ta me." He said in a defensive tone, "We can talk about this when we get back to base." He said and I could feel him trying to gently prod the bond. I opened it a fraction of the way and I felt his genuine relief. His shoulders sagged and he reached out for me, but Prowl shook his head.
"I should keep her with me for the time being. If you were attacked with her in your arms, you would only be able to use one of your mid-range blasters." He began. He then cut off Jazz's response. "In this certain situation, I am more capable of protecting the sparkling. Once we are out of Kaon, you can handle her for the rest of the way." He promised. Jazz was not happy about this, but he let the situation go… At least he let it go for now. I had no doubt he would bring it back up with Prowl later.
The rest of the buildings were the same as the one I was being held in. Jazz and the warriors dispatched any Decepticons who stumbled upon us and Ratchet tended to any of the more serious wounds. Once we reached a small opening torn into the wall of the outer hall Jazz frowned.
"It's rainin'." He said, turning to Prowl. "Her armor's not formed yet – what're we gonna do?" he questioned. The warriors started arguing and Prowl vented before reaching up and rubbing his helm.
"I suppose I can carry her in my Sparkling Chamber." He said while his face scrunched in an odd expression. My optics went wide once again. What the hell was a sparkling chamber? He handed me to Jazz, who gently cradled me to his chassis, and he opened his chest plating. I stared at him with curiosity and I squeaked lightly when I saw his spark.
:Spark pretty.: I accidentally sent to Jazz and he started to chuckle.
"She said that your spark was pretty." And the warriors and Ratchet started to snicker. Prowl just looked at me with a straight face and thanked me. I watched as he flipped something inside his armor and a panel next to his spark chamber opened up to reveal a little cubby like area.
"In y'go lil femme." Jazz quietly said and I kinda didn't want to go into the space. I whined a little bit, but I did what he said as he sent me a wave of reassuring feelings. I suppose I could sit still for a while. I climbed into the small cubby area and was hit with a warm wave of reassurance. My spark reached out and latched onto Prowl's spark, but our bond was miniscule at best. It was not like Jazz's spark.
:Adair. I'm your adair now.: He gently prompted and I let the bond flow open again. I was never one to hide my emotions.
:Ada.: I sleepily said with a smile on my face, :Ada Jazz.: I don't know where the word 'ada' came from. It was like I automatically knew the term. I felt a burst of pride and happiness that was not my own and I smiled, curling up in the corner of the chamber that was closest to Prowl's spark. It was actually kind of nice in there. The door to the chamber closed, but I still felt calm.
It wasn't until we started moving again that I started to feel a bit nervous. It was dark in the chamber. The only source of light that I had was from my optics. The weird thing there was that the light was a sort of silvery white. It wasn't blue tinted, like I thought the light probably would have been. I took deep breaths to calm myself down as we moved. Every so often I stiffened, letting out a small cry as I felt Prowl hiss in pain.
Then, a loud noise echoed through the base. Honestly, I was surprised that it hadn't happened sooner. The alarm blared and I could faintly hear the warriors and Ratchet curse.
"Security Breech! Autobot infiltration! Retrieve the sparkling!" was the command that crackled over the intercom system. By then, the sound was faint so I supposed that we were a good distance away from the base. The chamber started to sway lightly so I supposed that Prowl had begun to ran. This time I couldn't fight it. The warmth of his spark and my empty tanks were causing me to slip into recharge. I felt Jazz's worry and a trickle of some sort of emotion from Prowl, but I couldn't help it. My optics shut off and the last thing I remembered was Ratchet and Jazz's voices, the feeling of being passed from one mech to another, and the sound of some sort of aircraft.
Then, I was out like a light.
