An Update note: I hope you guys didn't deactivate while waiting! I've been very busy with personal matters, and I had to put this story aside while I dealt with my issues, but here it is Chapter 14. Let me say I had an enjoyable time typing up this chapter, it is very well devised, and I did enjoy re-reading three times! So if I missed any grammar errors, it's because I ain't Santa Clause! Hehehehehehe! So please I hope you enjoy this chapter and Thank you for reading!
Chapter 14: Consequences
Once opened, the three mechs had a good view of Dreadwing's spark chamber, which surprisingly was still intact. Strangely, to Knightwave's surprise he noticed that there was a small flicker of light, emanating from within the center of the chamber.
"What is that?", Megatron asked.
Optics opening wide, Knightwave knew exactly what he was looking at, "Dreadwing, he's…", He gasped.
"Still alive!", Knock-Out exclaimed.
Megatron glared at the flickering light, never has he seen this before, "Tell me Knightwave, is this what Rigor Mortis defined as a 'Tethered Spark'?", the gunmetal warlord asked.
That question made the purple seeker shudder, how does Megatron know of this, but he does not? Recently, he started to come up with the theory of Tethered Sparks, but he never knew that Rigor Mortis had already come up with the idea.
"How do you know about that?", he asked dryly.
With a slight chuckle, "There are many things, you still have yet to grasp.", he grinned, "Not all of your beloved Rigor Mortis' research was saved on the Immortal, and I doubt the Harbinger's database has anything you truly need.", he implied.
"What do you want in exchange?", Knightwave questioned, his violet optics burning behind his visor.
Smiling deviously, "I want you to revive my SIC, for that I will disclose to you the files I have, and don't think you'll find them within the Nemesis' databanks.", Megatron snickered.
Taking a deep vent, "You have a deal, but in one condition.", Knightwave scowled.
"And that would be?", the warlord asked.
"You allow Knock-Out and I, to also try and revive Breakdown.", he stated.
Looking over towards a still figure, covered with a grey tarp, "If you succeed on reviving Dreadwing, then I'll consider your proposal.", Megatron remarked, "I want to see results, understand.", he demanded.
Both Knightwave and Knock-Out bowed their helms, "Good, I'll be back to check on you two, and as for the files.", Megatron pulled out the same datacard, that was given to him when Knightwave gave up the Iacon coordinates, "I do hope the operation is successful, or you'll be the one lying on that berth.", he growled, handing the card to the purple seeker.
With nothing to say, Knightwave took the datacard, his optics burning with anger. All Megatron did was snicker, before turning around, and walking away.
Knock-Out looked over at the angered purple seeker, his whole frame was shaking, not at the fact that he had to rebuild Dreadwing, but at the fact that Megatron was in possession of Rigor Mortis' work. Questions were whirling around his mind, questioning everything, questioning why.
Putting a silver servo on Knightwave's shoulder, Knock-Out tried his best to find out what was troubling him, "Look, I know for a fact that, I have no idea what is bothering you, but we were given a chance, a chance to finish what Rigor Mortis started.", he remarked.
"I wish I was as insightful as you, but when Megatron gave me this datacard, I knew that he was hiding something.", Knightwave implied, looking down at the device.
"What do you mean?", the red doctor asked.
"Think about it, I was just coming up with the theory of Tethered Sparks, only for him to already have knowledge, regarding its existence.", he sighed, "If this datacard contains the knowledge of Tethered Sparks, then my theories have been nothing, but time wasted.", he stated.
"Nothing you do is wasted time, you have done more for me than anyone on this warship. Even though you never knew me, before now, you still took your time to make a deal with a complete stranger. You of all mechs used your time, to find a way to bring back my conjux, and help my sister... And don't think for a second that your theories are nothing.", Knock-Out exclaimed.
{You're a good mech, Knightwave.}, Tap-Out's voice echoed, {And don't let Megatron get to you.}, she remarked.
"You're right but… I still have no idea how Megatron was able to get a hold of this data.", he sighed.
"Maybe Rigor Mortis hide the data… maybe she already knew the answer, but didn't want anyone to find out the truth… so she separated the research…", Knock-Out hypothesized.
"Possible… but why would she keep this from me?", Knightwave asked.
"I don't know, I never met her.", the red mech shrugged, walking over towards a medical tool station, "That sounds like a question only she could answer, and for you to find out", he remarked.
Subspacing the datacard, Knightwave walked over towards Knock-Out, and started analyzing the tools, "So.", the red mech began, "How do you rebuild a deactivated frame?", he asked.
"We can't rebuild him.", Knightwave sighed.
"What? Lord Megatron explicitly told us to rebuild him.", Knock-Out reminded.
"I know, but look at him. ", The purple seeker walked, Knock-Out over to the berth, "His frame is completely desecrated, we cannot simply reform his original body structure, we'll need to transfer his inner components into a new frame.", he explained.
"How are we going to do that?", Knock-Out asked.
"It's not that simple, first we'll have to take apart his original form, to check if his drives are still in tact. If his drives are damaged in anyway, we'll have to transfer them into a new processor, via a Cortical Psychic Patch. As we can see, his spark chamber is in good condition, minus a few scorch marks, but that could be easily repaired.", Knightwave informed.
"Anything else?", Knock-Out asked.
"We'll need to sample his energon for a CNA transfer, and that is where my protoform theory comes in.", the purple mech implied, walking over towards the Starscream clones, that were laid against a back wall.
"So I'm guessing, you're going to use those protoforms, to clone Dreadwing's CNA for a body transfer?", Knock-Out asked.
"Yes… however I am afraid that due to Starscream's CNA being encoded into the protoforms overall biology, there will be limited traits.", Knightwave explained, "That is why, when I attempted to change that clone into Megatron, the faceplate stayed the same… it wasn't intentional.", he implied.
"Oh… so Dreadwing's new frame would end up looking like a mix of himself and Screamer? Well, if he wakes up, I guarantee he won't be happy.", Knock-Out crossed his arms.
"That is why I am planning, to make him look nothing like his former self… It is better that way…", he sighed.
"What is that?", the red mech asked.
"When one is Tethered to this reality, you lose a sense of self, you lose who you were, and who you really are.", he said with a sigh,"You're never truly the same, and you're never truly complete. That is why it is best to start over, and become a new you.", Knightwave foretold, selecting one of the clones.
"So… you speak from experience…", Knock-Out sighed.
"I am not the same mech I was before, I feel as if I am ghost, walking around without a clear purpose... for why I still live… for why still want to help others. All I know is, is that I am who I am, and not who I was.", he confessed, lifting up the protoform, and dragging it over to a berth.
"Here, let me help you.", the red doctor inclined, helping Knightwave lift up the Starscream clone, and placing it on the berth, "So what next?", he shrugged.
"I want you to inject this protoform with Dreadwing's CNA, while I extract his spark chamber from his original frame, along with his drives.", Knightwave instructed, before pausing, "Actually…", The purple mech mentioned, "I would like you to observe the practice, for I cannot simply do the spark separation operation, when I am the who needs it.", he chuckled.
"I am very well familiar with opening up others, but since this is a new practice, I'm all audios.", Knock-Out responded, walking towards the berth, Dreadwing was lying down on.
With a surprised expression, that his visit covered up, "I'm surprised that you're actually willing to perform this procedure.", the purple mech remarked.
"Don't be, I've been awaiting the day Dreadwing ended up on my lab table…", he grinned menacing, only to notice that Knightwave was giving him a confused gesture, "Oh and separating you and my sister…", he rolled his optics.
Knightwave continued, to glare at the red mech, "What?", Knock-Out shrugged, "He's been getting in my nerves.", he implied.
With a scoff, Knightwave walked over towards the berth, and began to examine the blue seeker's spark chamber. With an angered pout, Knock-Out walked over towards the berth, and began to watch as the purple seeker, started to examine the chamber.
"So, mind me asking… what are you looking for?", the red doctor asked.
"I thought you already knew…", Knightwave mumbled, looking rather focused, for his visor started to display many lines of data.
"Well it's just that, you're a professional in your craft…", Knock-out trailed off, as he watched the purple seeker.
"Alright.", Knightwave began, as he pointed at various vital fuels lines, that were connected to the spark chamber, "These fuel lines, connect the spark chamber to the chassis, we'll need to cut them, and carefully extract the chamber.", he explained.
"Wait, wouldn't that sever it from the energon circulation system?", the red mech asked.
"Yes, but that only applies if the patient is still alive. Dreadwing is far from living, for his energon has ran cold, and is frame is completely deactivated.", Knightwave informed.
"But that still doesn't explain, why is spark is still operational.", Knock-Out implied.
"That I still don't have the answer to… would you mind handing me a plasma scalpel?", he asked.
With a half smiled shrug, Knock-Out walked over towards the medical tool, and picked out a container, holding an array of cutting tools, "Pick your favorite.", he remarked, opening the container.
Picking out a tool, Knightwave proceeded with the operation, and began to cut the spark chamber out of the chassis. Knock-Out watched, as each fuel line that was connected to the chamber, was cut with exquisite precision. Impressed with the purple seeker's concentration, the red mech was marveled, on how fast Knightwave cut through all of the many fuel lines.
"So its it really that simple to remove a spark chamber?", Knock-Out asked.
"For being simple beings, we are more complicated that we seem. Our biology is completely frustrating, one wrong move and we deactivate… it's as if Primus designed us to be faulty in someway. Our spark chamber is no exception… it's overall design was meant to contain a living energy, a living energy that could power a mechanical form, if our form is broken it could be repaired, but if the spark chamber is broken, we die.", Knightwave mused.
"Oh that's very sentimental.", Knock-Out commented.
"After eons since my last operation, I've always had this feeling that Primus created us to fail, and when we succeed he finds a way to cause us trouble… Dreadwing wanted revenge for his fallen twin, but I believe that he failed, and Primus refuses to let him join the Allspark until he succeeds… just like how Shockwave has a lust to deactivate the Autobots, but in reality Primus knows that the Decepticons are at fault.", the purple seeker sighed.
"What does this have to do with Dreadwing?", Knock-Out asked.
"I worry that the moment he realizes, that Starscream wasn't deactivated, he'll be consumed by rage, just like I was when I awoke… I was in a state of denial, at the fact that I was offlined by my own brother, and I still am… I don't know why I feel the way I do, I guess being brought back from nonexistence, has a real impact on you.", Knightwave shrugged, walking over towards the tool table, and placing the scalpel down.
With a sigh, Knock-Out had a question that was beginning to fester in his processor, and he had to ask it, before it literally burned a hole through his head gasket, "Knightwave…", he spoke, catching the purple seeker's attention, "Regarding my sister… why do you think she wasn't allowed to join the Allspark?", he asked.
With a sigh, "That's a question you need to ask yourself… remember a Tethered Spark could work both ways, either they are holding themselves back, or another is keeping them bound to this reality. Primus works in mysterious ways, and they can be a real pain in the aft.", he responded.
"I...I see…", the red mech gloomed, "How about we continue with the operation, we wouldn't want Lord Megatron to think we're not doing as he ordered.", he sighed, his processor clouded with questions.
With a slight nod, Knightwave walked back to the berth, "Removing the spark chamber is simple enough, all we have to do is lift it out of the chassis.", he explained, "Grab the edge of the chamber, and slowly pull towards you.", he demonstrated, grabbing the sides, and showing how loose the chamber was.
Nodding his helm, Knock-Out grabbed the other side of the chamber, and in one swift movement, the chamber was lifted from Dreadwing's chassis. The chamber was lighter than the red mech thought, it was as if it was made of a lightweight metal, which in turn made it feel fragile.
"Alright, let's lay the chamber on that table.", Knightwave gestured his helm over towards an empty lab table.
Both mechs slowly walked, over to the table, and slowly placed it down, "Alright, next we have to extract the processor, and look over the conditions of the drives.", the purple mech implied.
"Can't memories be extracted from the spark?", Knock-Out asked.
Shaking his helm, "Unfortunately it cannot , the spark holds no correlation with our memories, or our emotions, it just holds are very being.", he responded.
"What do you mean?", the red mech questioned.
"Our spark is what defines us, makes us do what we do, but our emotions and memories are what we develop on our own. Primus created our sparks, thus he is responsible for what we become, either that is the path of good, or the path of evil, all of that was decided by him.", Knightwave remarked.
"So what you're trying to say is, without the memories, the spark if transferred into a frame with blank drives, will create a new being, based on the spark's overall purpose, crafted by Primus?", Knock-Out mused.
"Couldn't have said it better myself.", the purple seeker commended, walked back towards the berth.
"But what about bonded sparks? How do they work exactly?", Knock-Out asked.
"You are very inquisitive aren't you?", Knightwave grinned, "Well, spark bonds are basically when two or more sparks share a similar purpose. They are drawn to each other, due to the common wavelengths they share, this could lead to the reason why there are factions. It's as if Primus wanted us to be divided.", he sighed, opening up the remains of Dreadwing's head gasket.
"What about broken spark bonds?", Knock-Out asked.
"A broken spark bond, occurs when the spark of another has changed, Primus may have crafted us to fit the image he preferred, but that doesn't mean we can't change our own fate, and go against our strongest desires. We have the ability to change, the ability to go against Primus and his predetermined destiny.", Knightwave informed.
"That does explain a lot… so what's next?", Knock-Out stated, walking over towards Knightwave.
"We need to analyze if his core memories are still intact, and by observation, they appear to be in decent condition, take a look.", the purple seeker noted.
"Hm I thought an explosion, like that would've damaged his processor, but I guess I underestimated the Commander.", he shrugged, getting another silent glare from the seeker.
"What?", Knock-Out shrugged.
"Is there any High Grade on the warship? I might need to drown myself in it.", Knightwave remarked.
"Seriously?", the red mech asked.
Rolling his optics, under his visor, Knightwave walked over towards the tool table, and selected a fine plasma scalpel, "We'll need to sever the core processor from the head gasket, the same way we extracted the Spark Chamber, except once we take it halfway out, there is a vital cable, connected the base of the processor to the bipedalism cord. From there, we simply sever the cord, while making sure it isn't damaged.", he explained.
Nodding his helm, "After you.", Knock-Out responded.
With a conformation nod, Knightwave proceeded with his procedure, cutting fine lines around the sides of the processor, loosening it from the head gasket. Looking up at Knock-Out, "I'll need you to hold the processor, and slowly lift it out, so I could sever the cord.", he instructed.
"Alright.", the red mech confirmed, putting a silver servo on top of the processor, and slowly lifting it.
Knock-Out had never performed this type of surgery before, nor has he actually pulled out another bot's processor. He's seen processors before, but actually handling such a vital component, made his feel less like a doctor, and more like an assistant. Which in actuality, he was in fact being Knightwave's assistant, for this operation.
While deep in his own thoughts, the red mech never noticed that Knightwave had successfully severed the processor from the head gasket, "It's done, now we must proceed with the rest of the operation, but this part might take a while to complete.", the purple seeker stated, taking the processor from Knock-Out and walking it over towards the lab table, the chamber was on.
"And what would that be?", Knock-Out asked.
"We need to transfer Dreadwing's CNA into the protoform, and create a new appearance for him.", Knightwave remarked.
"Leave the body work to me, since I do specialize in outer beauty.", the red mech chuckled.
"I am quite aware of you talents, however we need to first see what kind of shape he takes, once we implement his CNA into the protoform.", the purple seeker stated, grabbing the energon infuser, and taking a sample of Dreadwing's CNA.
"How do these protoforms work?", Knock-Out asked.
"They copy whatever CNA is transfused into them, everything about them is artificial, even down to their Spark. However, our very CNA is encoded with our own personal data, resulting them to be an exact copy of us, even down to our desires, resulting in an instant spark bond.", the purple seeker explained, "Which is why it isn't recommended to use them for cloning, due to the fact that they are bonded to that of the original, all the pain inflicted to a clones are then felt by the original.", Knightwave snickered, thinking about all the pain Starscream, must've gone through, when his clones were deactivated.
"Interesting, so they are exact copies? Like I could use them to clone Breakdown?", Knock-Out asked.
"Indeed, but I wouldn't recommend that. Protoforms do have a will of their own, even though they do share the same desires, and emotions, they have completely different personalities.", Knightwave informed.
"So he wouldn't be the same...", Knock-Out sighed, "Well, it was worth a shot.", he shrugged.
"Don't you worry about a thing, I promised that I'd bring back your conjux, and I'll make sure he's the same bot he was, before he was deactivated.", the purple seeker reassured, "Now then, we should, continue with the operation, no more fooling around.", he exclaimed, injecting the protoform with the CNA.
Once done, Knightwave extracted his data cables, and latched them onto the chassis, and with one violent burst of electricity, the protoform started to take shape, bending and morphing into a new shape. The silver color didn't change, neither did the sleek shape of the frame, but the servos, the pedes, and the faceplate changed, along with the wings. Overall, Starscream's CNA was still the dominant factor, which the protoform only gained some of Dreadwing's traits.
With a sigh, "I seems that he'll need more body work, that I initially speculated.", Knightwave shook his helm, retracting his cables.
"Hmm?", Knock-Out mused, putting a servo in his chin, and squinting his optics, "You know, I swear he looks familiar… think… think…", the red doctor thought, before snapping his digits.
"What is it?", Knightwave asked.
"Do you recall those legends they we were told as younglings, you know the ones of the ancient warriors, that were created long ago by Unicron, and lead by Galvatron?", Knock-Out mused.
"Well I cannot say I haven't heard about them, I use to like to listen to those tales.", the purple mech responded.
"Well, my absolute favorite tale was that of Cyclonus, Galvatron's second in command, and most valuable soldier among his warriors.", the red mech implied.
"Are you implying that Dreadwing's new frame, looks similar to that of the description of Cyclonus?", the purple seeker crossed his arms.
"Maybe with a few alterations, and some minor upgrades, and you've got a beautiful recreation of one fierce bot.", Knock-Out laughed.
"If you insist.", Knightwave inclined.
"Really?", the red mech asked.
"Sure, if I had the choice to look like a legend, I'd agree. Either way, as long as it doesn't resemble Starscream, I have no quarrel with your creative talent.", the purple seeker tiled his helm, and began to examine the processor.
{Are you seriously giving Knock-Out the go ahead, to make Dreadwing look like Cyclonus? I mean he's nothing but a legend, a bot who died during the fight between the 13 Primes, and was on Galvatron's side… you know Unicron's warrior.}, Tap-Out remarked.
"I am quiet aware of Cyclonus' story, it too was one of my favorite tales, especially the part where he renounced his ways, and joined that of the side of good.", Knightwave whispered.
{Wait, I never knew that part? I thought he died fighting Solus Prime.}, Tap-Out asked.
"That's a common misconception. Cyclonus wasn't deactivated by Solus, rather he was her lover. They become bonded during a confrontation, which soon lead to his betrayal of Unicron, and Galvatron. He was indeed deactivated by Galvatron, while defending Solus.", the purple mech explained.
{So they became to first spark bond… uh… I never knew…}, Tap-Out sighed, realizing that all this time, her brother was right to admire Cyclonus.
"Misconceptions like that have been passed down for eons, the story is always ever changing, because others wish to believe that nobody could change their fate, but Cyclonus did just that. He changed his ways, and took the path he chose, not Unicron's.", Knightwave explained.
{But if his spark was created by Unicron, doesn't that mean he created his will?"}, Tap-Out asked.
"Not entirely true, when he was forged, he was one without a spark. Over time, he soon developed one on his own, and his purpose become clear.", he implied.
{How did he 'develop' a spark on his own?}, she asked.
"That I do not know, Sparkless entities tend to stay void of anything, their feels are rendered nonexistent, but I do believe that Cyclonus was granted one by Primus, when he succeeded to enter the Well of Allsparks. If he didn't grain a spark, then he would've gone about his orders, and deactivated Primus, but he didn't.", Knightwave informed.
{Was that when he was confronted by Solus, and they became bonded?}, she questioned.
"You're exactly like your brother, so many questions… but yes that is where they fought, only for Cyclonus to realize that he didn't want to fight. Surprised by his sudden action, Solus was informed by Primus himself, that this spawn of Unicorn was given the gift of a spark, forged by himself.", the purple seeker told, doing another examination of the drives.
{I assume that she spared Cyclonus, and gave him a talk about renouncing his affiliation with both Galvatron and Unicron?}, Tap-Out mused.
"Exactly, and since Primus deliberately made Cyclonus' and Solus' sparks with the same purpose, they soon became lovers, only for Cyclonus to be deactivated by the hands of Galvatron, while defending Solus… a sad ending for a great warrior.", Knightwave sighed, not even realizing that Knock-Out was listening the whole time.
"So do you two usually talk, behind my back, or is it story time and I didn't get invited?", the red mech exclaimed, causing the purple seeker to literally jump out of his concentration.
With a deep vent, "In a matter of fact, me and your sister do talk, and I was just informing her about the legend of Cyclonus…", Knightwave grumbled.
"Yeah I was listening the whole time, this place is so quiet you could hear Soundwave vent.", he joked.
"Of course you can, but I believe that you're not here to joke are you?", the purple seeker implied.
Rubbing the back of his helm, "If you must know, I finished evaluating Dreadwing's new frame, I speculate the amount of time required to create his new look, is around one Earth week. This will also give you enough time to install both spark chamber, and processors.", Knock-Out informed.
"A week… 7 days, or equal to that of solar cycles… alright, if there are no complications with the transfer, then a week is good enough.", Knightwave nodded.
Giving the purple seeker a confused look, "How long did it take you, and Rigor Mortis to rebuild Shockwave?", he asked.
"Too long, he was our first and only successful transfer, even though to me he wasn't fully complete.", he vented deeply.
"We might as well continue, after all we don't want Megatron banging down the door, and start demanding results.", Knock-Out joked, only for the med bays doors to open, revealing that of Megatron.
If only Knock-Out could see Knightwave's expression, "Way to go groundpounder…", he mumbled.
"I demand a process report.", the gunmetal mech growled.
"My Liege, we have successfully extracted both spark chamber and processor, both are in good condition. All we need to do is adjust the protoform's outer appearance, remove its inner components, and transfer Dreadwing's into the frame.", Knightwave reportedly, in a formal manner.
"How long am I supposed to wait, before my Second in Command is fully operational?", Megatron asked.
"Seven solar cycles.", the purple seeker implied.
Shaking his helm, "Seven solar cycles seems a bit too long, I would incline you to consider using the healing properties of Dark Energon.", Megatron persuaded.
With a shake of his own helm, "My apologies Lord Megatron, but I advise against using such inferior materials.", Knightwave dismissed.
"That was the same thing Shockwave told me, many eons ago. I can see that your influence, has a strong impact on others.", the warlord scowled.
"Speaking of Shockwave, whatever happened to him?", Knightwave asked.
"He perished many stellar-cycles ago, he was pronounced deactivated when his space bridge experiment exploded. He was in pursuit of the Autobots, when his prisoners escaped, no thanks to Starscream.", Megatron informed before turning around, "I want to see results, I'll check back in soon, to observe your progress.", he commanded, walking out of the med bay.
Once Megatron was gone, Knightwave looked over towards Knock-Out, "Well That was very… unexpected.", he remarked.
"What it wasn't my fault.", the red doctor crossed his arms.
"Come on, let's get back to work.", the purple seeker implied, getting back to his analysis of Dreadwing's processor and Spark chamber.
"Whatever you say Knightwave.", Knock-Out grinned, getting back to preparing for the remodel of Dreadwing's new frame.
{I'm sorry about Shockwave, hearing this kind of news, isn't for the faint of spark.}, Tap-Out mourned.
"Shockwave was a good friend, but I have without a doubt, he is still online.", Knightwave whispered.
{What makes you believe in that assumption?}, she asked.
"He's survived far worse…", Knightwave implied, "Now of you please, I have to get back to work, Megatron said he wants results, I intend on giving it to him.", he remarked, picking up a soldering tool, and began to repair some minor damage on the processor.
End of chapter Notes: Howdy! Yeah this chapter is jam packed with rewritten story... Yeah I rewrote a lot of the original story to fit my story, and BTW I am a Cyclonus fan, and I decided that it would be frakin' amazing, if we had some sort of variant of him in this story, so my edgy teenage self decided to make Dreadwing just that. I hope that it isn't dat weird to have Dreadwing be rebuilt as Cyclonus, well he's just gonna look like him... kinda since I thought if you combined Dreadwing with Starscream, their fused form would look similar to that of Cyclonus. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ !Thanks For reading! my weird story...
ps: uh look up the IDW comics version of Cyclonus... that's what I'm basing the appearance after... just add some of Dreadwing's features... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
pss: Expect the next update during next weekend or sometime EVENTUALLY... I am still dealing with personal issues :(
psss: If there any grammar errors, expect them to be adjusted over time, I tend to update all my chapters if I notice minor to major overlooked errors.
