-Radio
BOTNAPPING!
The next morning Radio looked tired and edgy as she walked into the medbay holding Twilight who held her cybercat doll and a new crystal flower. Draped around the little sparkling's shoulders was her yellow blanket. Radio and Twilight stifled yawns as Radio handed her sleepy sparkling to Ratchet.
"MoonRacer will be here shortly. I will look after her for now. Radioactive, are you felling alright?" Ratchet asked taking note of how nervous and twitchy she was acting. He had seen Shadow earlier in the same poor condition and was shocked at how tired the girls appeared. They usually didn't get up this early either.
"Just…..just a bad feeling about today. Take good care of Twilight. Until all are one." Radio said after giving Twilight a kiss on the helm before she exited. She made sure to send wave upon wave of love and adoration to Twilight as she forced herself to perk up. She should be happy that today was the day they started the build her sparkling would play on for vorns on end. With knowing her Twilight will be happy, Radio headed to meet FireRose and Hoist outside.
With the Decepticons-
"STARSCREAM!" Megatron roared frustrated to no end that the information on the femmes that Ravage stole lacked what he needed like names.
"Yes my lord?" Starscream asked in his screechy voice filled with false loyalty.
"Call Skywarp. I have a mission that not even he can mess up." He ordered darkly.
"Yes my lord." Starscream sneered before activating his trine bond link with Skywarp. 'SKYWARP! Get to the throne room. Lord Megatron has a mission for you.'
'Coming Screamer!' Skywarp chirped back as he warped into the throne room.
"Yes Lord Megatron. What can I do for you?" Skywarp asked with a bow.
"Get me the new red and white Autobot femme NOW!" Megatron demanded.
"Yes sir!" Skywarp stated quickly as he warped to the outskirts of Iacon city and started searching for the femme. He found her outside with Hoist. "Lucky me. Right outside. Perfect."
FireRose, Radio, and Hoist leaned over the complex plans for the play ground completely oblivious to the oncoming threat.
"You femmes sure you're not building an Academy training center?" Hoist asked amazed at how much detail was put in the making of the grounds.
"Really? These seem like the basics of a fun filled day for any being." Radio stated with a hint of pride in her and FireRose's work. FireRose had walked away to take in the landscape of the soon to be playground.
"I think this is going to be perfect." FireRose chimed as she turned her back to the open grounds.
"So do I." Skywarp snickered as he wrapped his arms around FireRose blocking her escape.
"FRAG! LET ME GO! YOU SON OF A GLITCH!" FireRose roared as she attempted to fight him off.
"FIREROSE!" Radio cried as she jumped onto Skywarp's back and put him into a head lock as her voice turned to venom. "Let. Her. Go. You Slaggard." She hissed as Hoist ran to assist only to come too late for Skywarp had warped away.
"FIREROSE! RADIOACTIVE! SLAGGIT!" Hoist snarled before attempting to comm. Optimus only to find it blocked. Hoist quickly rushed into the base and bolted to the main room.
"Optimus! Prowl! Their gone! Their gone!" Hoist bellowed as he stormed into the main room. Optimus, Elita, Prowl, Springer, Red Alert, and Ironhide turned to stare at the panting mech in confusion.
"What da ya mean? Who's gone?" Jazz asked as he walked in.
"FIREROSE AND RADIOACTIVE! Slaggit! Skywarp got them and know they're gone!" Hoist shouted.
CRASH!
All jaws dropped and turned to Red Alert who was passed out on the floor from a glitch. Optimus stared frozen and looked ready to glitch himself.
"Optimus?" Elita called snapping him out of his daze.
"What happened?" His voice was almost a growl.
"We were working outside going over the plans for the playground while we waited for the Twins to show when Skywarp grabbed FireRose from behind. Radioactive grabbed him trying to stop him and before I could get to them he warped away with them." Hoist explained.
"WHAT?!" Kinetix and Aqua screamed. Aqua's optics shuttered rapidly before she fell back into Cliffjumper's arms in shock.
"What are we going to do Optimus?" Ironhide asked in deep concern. The two femme leaders were close friends with him and the others. Everyone felt the worry and fear for them.
"Find them. And bring them back." He answered with a level of seriousness of his voice hanged in the air.
"First, we must find them. The Decepticons have many unknown bases that they could have taken the femmes to." Prowl added. Tension filled the room with a poison like air.
CRASH! BANG! Sounds were heard outside that startled the group causing them to rush out of the main room and outside.
"Shadow! Swiftwing! Are you two alright?" Silverbolt shouted as he rushed to the crash site of the two femme seekers. Nightblade was already at the Seekers and was helping Swiftwing up as Silver ran to Shadow's side.
"Their gone." Nightblade whispered. Her frame trembled slightly as the words echoed in her processer.
"FireRose?" Swiftwing called out dazedly as she clung to Nightblade.
"And Radio." Shadow whimpered as she curled into Silverbolt's arms. "Why didn't we just stay in bed?" She sobbed.
"We should have been more cautious to you and Radio's vibe and put off doing the play ground." Swift chocked out as her wings dipped down flat against her back in sorrow.
"Kinetix, I can barely feel their presence." Aqua cried as she came to from her faint. They could feel the gap where FireRose and Radio's bond had been. Suddenly, Nightblade and Shadow bolted up right.
"TWILIGHT!" They cried as they rushed to the medbay where they found Red cradling Twilight. As soon as he felt Twilight's cries he had barged into the medbay. He stood there, holding her close as she cried. He sent love to her but he too was worried about the absence of his femme and her commander.
"No danni…..*sniff hiccup* Nu Rosie? Danni? Rosie?" Twilight screamed as she sobbed against Red Alert.
"I am here sweetspark. They are fine. Your danni and aunt are strong. They can hold their own. We will get them back." He cooed to her.
The news spread over the base and everybot available spent every spare astro-second looking for traces of the girls.
With the girls-
Skywarp had warped into an empty room near the throne room. FireRose high kicked Skywarp's face causing him to loosen his hold on her enough for her to move as Radio aggressively slammed him down. Radio sprung away from the seeker and took her position next to FireRose to continue their assault. Before they could finish the purple seeker off, metal braces wrapped around their arms, locking them to their bodies and forcing them to sit on the floor with electrical pulses.
They squirmed as they attempted to break the braces but it was in vain. They stopped after a bit but did not relax. They stared at the wall burning holes in it with their deadliest death glare. Skywarp scurried away as Starscream entered. Skywarp quickly went to get Megatron and Soundwave.
"Two femmes for the price of one? Must be our lucky day." Starscream sneered with a sickening smirk.
The girls' darkened their glare as their optics swirled from blue to purple. They almost became red which shocked the screechy seeker and he was about to grab one of them when;
"Starscream! Leave them alone. Skywarp! I said the red and white one not her and this other." Megatron growled earning the twin glares from the two femmes as they began to grind their dentas.
'Radio, you should have stayed back. Think about Twilight! The others needed you to lead them.' Rose sent.
'I know, it is hard to send my love to Twilight and I can barely feel the others. That just pisses me off more. Remember Rosie, we have to fight. We got others that need us and seal the memories of the past tight. Who knows what they are going to do.' Radio sent with a shiver.
"My apologies my lord. The purple one attacked me when I captured the other." Skywarp stated in defense.
"It's called defending my commander dumbaft." Radio hissed darkly as her optics flashed.
"Designations required." Soundwave spoke in his deep monotonous voice.
"What the frag is it to you?" Radio spat out as her anger flared. Being away from her sparkling and team mates was having a negative effect on her. She locked optics with the cassette carrier and narrowed her gaze.
"Don't go gangster on me femme. Last time you did you blew up a whole building." FireRose hissed.
"Designation: Now." Soundwave ordered as his optics bore into Radio's.
"Designation: Wrecker Radioactive. Happy ya femme-creator fraggers?" Radio snarled. It was clear that the lack of contact with her Twilight was unnerving her logic center. The curse shocked the mechs at the amount of venom her tone left. "Fucking basterd pit-spawned." She mumbled.
"Designation: FireRose fragging Prime ya scraps of useless slug! I wouldn't even spit in yer direction ya sons of the glitchiest glitches of the slaggerd children of the universe united." FireRose cursed.
"Oh snap! That's hard core femme! You kiss your femme creator with that mouth?" Radio cackled.
"What 'bout you?" Rose snarked back.
"Well at least we know one thing." Radio said as their glares never softened.
"What?"
"We got a building to burn." Radio answered darkly.
"Pit yeah." FireRose smirked menacingly before something forced them into recharge.
"A femme Prime. Hhmmm. Soundwave, scan their memories. Do it quickly and have FireRose brought to my quarters." Megatron ordered as he studied the recharging femme.
"Affirmative Lord Megatron." Soundwave replied as he transported the femmes to his lab.
-Later-
'RADIO! HELP! FRAG IT HURTS! I'M SORRY!' FireRose cried out in her mind to Radio who was in equal pain.
They had been fighting off Soundwave's mind picking torture for countless hours and were slowly breaking.
'I'M SO SORRY FIREROSE! PLEASE PRIMUS! LET THE ….FRAG…OTHERS FORGIVE US! DAMN IT! FIREROSE!" Radio screamed in her mind.
The girls' memories swirled in the visor of Soundwave. 'They were human?' he thought as he carried FireRose to Megatron's room.
"Lord Megatron. I have the femme Prime and information that is of high importance." He announced through the door.
"Enter!" Megatron barked as the doors swished open and Soundwave entered.
"Problem: Femmes memories show that before they held the forms of human females." Soundwave informed. Megatron's optics widen as he stared at the femme before him.
"Mah energon cookies. No take mah cookies." FireRose murmured as she curled up on the large berth Megatron had placed her on.
"Do the Autobots know?" Megatron asked as a wicked (bad type not good type) idea formed.
"Memories conclude they have kept it a secret but planned to inform the Autobots once they had formed a stronger relationship there." Soundwave reported.
"Then they shall be ours. Do whatever you want with the other. This one shall be mine." Megatron sneered.
"Question: Femme being human does not bother you Lord Megatron?" Soundwave inquired.
"Femmes are rare now. Why waste such a lovely one like this?" Megatron retorted as he walked over to FireRose. "Dismissed Soundwave."
"Affirmative Lord Megatron." Soundwave stated before he walked back to his lab. He did not like how Megatron treated Radioactive. Once he entered his lab he saw Radio curled up in pain on his spare berth. He knew that the femmes gave him a strong fight and he also knew he had caused great pain to both. Soundwave moved over to her and climbed onto the berth before he pulled Radio into his arms.
With the other girls-
The Autobots stared in disbelief as the remaining five femmes of FireRose's troop gripped at their helms screaming in agony as they collapsed onto the floor of the main lounge. This happened around the same time Soundwave picked the others' processors.
With FireRose a few breems later-
FireRose was curled up on a berth wrapped in the dark metal sheets recharging as Megatron gently caressed her face.
"You will be the key that wins the war for me, my dear." He murmured darkly. FireRose stirred slightly but stayed in partial recharge as she attempted to contact Radio.
'Ow, Radio? Radioactive? Please answer. Frag everything hurts." Rose sent.
'I feel like I am cuddling with Red Alert but this is NOT Red. I miss Twilight and Red. The gap hurts FireRose! We need to get out of here. Be careful Rosie and fight! Maybe we will meet in the brig.' Radio sent with slight feelings of distress.
'I know, I can't feel the others. I hate this. My spark hurts without them.' Rose sent sadly.
'I want my family back.' Radio cried. 'I want to know that they forgive us.' Radio sent.
'I hope so too.' FireRose sent seeing the images of all their friends. Radio watched them too but Twilight was in most of them baking her cry.
FireRose slowly re-onlined and was completely confused at what was gently touching her cheek.
"Whaz goin' on?" She mumbled before freezing in a dead wide optic stare into the optics of Megatron.
"WHAT THE FRAG! KYA!" FireRose screamed before she fell off the berth and jumped to her pedes in a fighting pose. "Stay back Megatron." She hissed.
"My dear femme." He huffed as he slowly rose from the berth and started to walk to her.
"I said stay back." She growled darkly.
"I know you're human." Megatron stated causing her intake vents to cycle faster.
"So?" She scoffed.
"Do you really think the Autobots will accept that fact?" Megatron asked taking a step forward towards her.
"Yes. I do. They know the real us not the mask we hid behind as humans. The life we have with them made living worth it. Our old life was the pit! I wouldn't trade anything for the time I have spent with the Autobots." She declared ready to subspace her weapons and blast out of here to find Radio.
"Oh, you really think that the little time spent with them has done anything?" Megatron inquired.
"Most of us found potential sparkmates. And I have come to love Optimus more than I did before." FireRose snarled before Megatron slammed her right shoulder into the wall.
"You are mine. Forget those feelings for that worthless Prime and learn that your place is with me." He growled as the metal of her shoulder bent. On instinct FireRose side kicked him forcing him to release her.
"Why the frag does everybot keep smashing my shoulders?!" Rose ranted as she attempted to escape only to be pulled to the floor and pinned under Megatron. She tried to kick him again but pinned her legs under his.
"You will willingly become my sparkmate." He hissed.
"Never." She spat back. Just as Megatron was about to slam his fist into her helm an alarm went off causing him to growl.
"Hook will see to you then you will be put in the brig until you accept my offer."
"Gladly." FireRose sneered as he shoved her out the door. 'Yo Radio, I'm out! Must be a new record!'
'I'm not. I feel like I am being treated like a pet.' Radio cried.
'You're not awake yet?' Rose sent worried but kept a straight face as she entered the Cons' medbay.
"Hook, fix her and then call Soundwave to take her to the brig. You, when you are ready to cooperate call for me." Megatron snarled before leaving. He did not notice FireRose sticking her glossa out at him and flip him off as she glared at him.
"Let's fix that shoulder." Hook huffed as FireRose grumbled under her breath about Megatron that should never be repeated…..ever!
With Radio-
"Twilight ngah Red." Radio murmured in her sleep as stray tears slid down her cheeks but were swiped away by Soundwave who was cradling her in his arms and petting her like she was his pet. He tapped into her memory again and saw flashes of the sparkling that had escaped. He saw her and Radio sharing sweet moments and was enjoying the fact that he had found such a motherly femme for his cassaticons. That was until he saw a memory of the Autobot, Red Alert holding Twilight and walking to her before he realized that Radio was hurt in this memory. Red was pulling her into a hug and kissed her on the cheek which made Soundwave angry. 'She is mine Autobot.' He thought as she drowsily online stiflingly a yawn.
"Red?" She called rubbing her optics before fully staring at Soundwave. "NOT RED!" She cried and before she could even process what was going on she had wacked Soundwave over the head with her hammer causing him to fall back onto the berth dragging her with him.
"Whoopsie. Not good." She said as she struggled to get free.
After failing to break the vise grip he had on her. She vented heavily. 'Of course I would flip out and cause a mess like this!'
"Uh oh." She whispered as Soundwave rolled to his side.
'Don't roll over! Don't roll over! Thank Primus Nightblade or Jazz isn't here! Don't roll over! Don't roll over!' She chanted in a panic.
'Radio?' FireRose sent with heavy confusion.
'I AM SCREWED!' Radio screamed.
'Aawww. Is Soundwave being a prev?' Rose teased.
'NOT YET! And NOT if I am FLAT AS A PANCAKE!' Radio cried.
'Yeah, you're screwed. Slag! Hook is tapping wires. Find a way out Radi!' FireRose yelled before being cut off.
'No! Don't leave me! Don't roll over! Primus! Why the sick humor?' Radio cried as Soundwave's form moved again.
Only this time he moved his helm close to hers and nuzzled against her helm.
'Frag, I am loyal to Red Alert! That just makes this very awkward and creepy.' Radio thought becoming annoyed when she heard faint snickers from Beta and Rose. 'NOT HELPING!'
Soundwave's optics onlined and stared at the femme in front of him noting her near panic optics. Pulling her closer, he nuzzled further into her neck wires. Radio felt the strain on her waist armor as the pressure from his tight hug almost dented her sides.
"Femme Radioactive, I ask if you will hear me out." He said as his monotonous voice filled Radio's audios.
"Does it look like I am going anywhere? GR! Sorry for the outburst but it is not every cycle that I get botnapped! Now finding trouble and being regulars to the medbay I can understand. THIS! This is more stress than I need in five human lifetimes." Radio rambled earning a strange chuckle from Soundwave. Strange, for an out of character act that Soundwave had done and for how cool it sounded.
"Are you willing to become my sparkmate?" He asked dead serious.
"Say wha? No! No absolutely NOT! I am Loyal to the Autobots and Red Alert! I am sorry but no." Radio declared her loyalty only to have a stare down with Soundwave.
"Answer: Not accepted. Option: You will accept." Soundwave stated sternly.
"Read mah lips! Nnnnooo.. End of discussion." Radio replied getting mad.
Yes you will." Soundwave countered earning a warning growl from Radio which only made Soundwave want her more.
'Soundwave. Megatron has a job for you.' Hook commed.
'Mission.' Soundwave stated briskly. Upset that he had yet to get the femme on his side.
'Take FireRose, who is surprisingly well behaved but annoying, to the brig per request of Lord Megatron.' Hook answered.
'Affirmative.'
'Yo Radio this is fun!' FireRose sent cheerfully.
'Say wha?'
"New option: Spend time in brig to think over my proposal." Soundwave offered as if he was giving an order.
"Sssuuurrreee. Let's go play in the amazing magical brig!" Radio sarcastically sneered. Soundwave gave her a strange look before dragging her off the berth and setting her gently on her pedes. The freedom did not last long for he grabbed her arm and guided her to the medbay.
'Ow.' Radio mentally groaned but kept her pain from showing.
As they neared the medbay, banging and a repeating word was heard.
"Why?" bang. "Shut up!" Why?" Bang.
'FireRose.' Radio thought with a sweatdrop as the door slid open.
Radio stumbled into the medbay as Soundwave continued to drag her by her arm.
"Ya know, you're not earning bonus points with all this dragging me by my still healing arm." Radio chimed annoyed.
"Why?" FireRose asked before Hook once again banged his helm into the dented wall.
"Just shut up!" Hook begged to the wall.
"Why?" FireRose giggled.
"Soundwave take her away! I thought your cassettes were bad!" Hook ranted.
"Why?" FireRose and Radio chimed.
"Make it stop!" Hook groaned as he went back to banging his helm.
"Why?" The girls called as Soundwave grabbed FireRose and proceeded to drag both out.
"Order: Cease current annoying actions." Soundwave ordered.
"WWWhhhhhhhyyyyyy?" They whined switching to pure annoy mode.
"Do as you are ordered to." He stated as the descended a flight of stairs.
"Why?" they asked sweet and innocently causing sound wave to vent heavily.
"Why vent ssooo heavily Ssssooouunndddwwavve?" Radio sang as Rose giggled.
'Soundwave sure has a lot of tolerance for our bugging him.' Radio sent.
'He does have to deal with Frenzy, Rumble, Ratbat, Lazzerbeak, Buzzsaw and Ravage.' FireRose sent.
'Aww…He did create them.' Radio sent back as Soundwave pushed them into separate cells but they were right next to each other. They were separated by half wall and half bars so they could see each other.
"Order: stay here and think about the proposals and report back to either Lord Megatron or myself." With that, Soundwave took one last look at Radio before leaving them not noticing the girls making funny faces at his helm.
"You okay FireRose? Why were you in the medbay?" radioactive asked as soon as Soundwave was gone. She leaned closer to the bars that separated them as she sat down and curled up holding her sides.
"Got mah shoulder hurt. Same one too. Slag. You okay Radio? What did Soundwave do to you?" FireRose asked holding the bars that were placed between them as she slid down to the floor next to Radio.
"Frag. It's nothing. He just crushed my sides a bit." Radio grumbled pulling her legs closer to her. "Tell me what else happened to you first."
"Okay. Well as he hurt my shoulder I kicked him in the side denting it. Then got sent to Hook." Rose huffed.
"Right on my femme commander. Putting Megatron in his place." Radio cheered as they fist bumped through the bars giggling. "I was almost turned into a metal pancake. Oh, and before that I kinda overreacted and hit Soundwave with mah hammer."
"What? HAHAHahahhaahhaaha why'd ya do that?" FireRose laughed.
"He scared me out of my processor." Radio mumbled embarrassingly.
"And he had you in his arms and nearly squeezed ya to death." Rose teased.
"Yup! I should be okay soon. Now, do you know where the pit we are?" Radio asked as she grimaced at their mucky new rooms.
"The Pit?" Rose guessed earning a look from Radio. "I don't know radioactive. I wish I knew." FireRose groaned.
"I think I passed by a window that looked out over the place with Soundwave." Radio muttered not really thinking.
"Try to send it to an Autobot! ANYONE!" FireRose cried. "They blocked the comms so try the bonds!"
'Elita? Flareup? Chromia? Arcee? FireStar? MoonRacer? Anybot?' Radio tried.
'Radioactive?' MoonRacer answered shocked.
'Yush! Connected!' Radio cheered.
'Where are you? Is FireRose with you? Are you both okay?'
'We don't know where we are but I have a picture of the outside from a window. I'm sending it to you.' Radio sent.
'Got it. Now answer my questions!' Moon called.
'We're in the brig. Minor damage. No sparkling. FireRose is in the cell next to me spazzing out.' Radio answered.
'AM NOT!' FireRose interjected.
'I'll check with you later and please be safe.' MoonRacer said before she rushed off to find Optimus and the others.
"Optimus! Prowl! I found them! EEELLLIIITTTAAA!" MoonRacer shouted as she ran through the halls rushing into a meeting in the main control room.
"Moon, what's wrong?" Elita asked rushing over to Moon's side.
"Radio….active….commed me…through the bond….sent me an image from a window….they're in the brig." MoonRacer huffed.
"Where?" Optimus asked quickly, too quickly to some. MoonRacer pulled the image to the big screen from the link. The bots in the room were Optimus, Magnus, Red Alert, Ratchet, Ironhide, Chromia, Elita, Arcee, Springer and a few others turned to the screen.
The screen changed and fuzzed to show Soundwave's hand clenched over Radio's purple wrist, then to the floor as she stumbles to the ground to be caught again by Soundwave. As she turns to face him as he places her back on her pedes she looks past him at a window. It showed a city well known to many bots. Kaon. The memory went on to fuzz and blips of the brig hack to the hallway then to the brig before staying at the window.
"Kaon." Most of the bots in the room gasped.
"We formulate a plan at once and save them. Femmes, try to keep contact with the girls. We will get them back." Optimus ordered dead serious.
This took me all day to type. Whoo. ENJOY! Remember to review! I type faster when you guys review. Love ya!
