Ch 25
Dust raised into the air as two dragons fought each other. They were carefully watched by five other dragons. The two fighting where both blue in color with different accents.
Suddenly the darker blue one was thrown off the light color who then ran to the other side of their battlefield. Both vented heavily as they prepared themselves for the other to charge first.
The femme charged first. Smirking the other lead forward and hooked his helm under her chassis and threw her onto her side. His fangs then meet her neck and stayed there as she struggled under him.
"Enough!" Scavenger walked down to them as Blurr got off of Arcee. "You need to move faster and primus forbid process faster." He looked down at her, "That is the third time you fell for the same trick."
Arcee glared up at the other, "It wasn't the same trick!"
Snorting Skywarp joined in from his laying spot. "Yeah he changes his stance so it obviously not the same trick." He chuckled.
"Skywarp, quiet." Thundercracker smacked the other with his tail.
Arcee just growled at Skywarp who chuckled from his place. A loud screech came across the area as Starscream came walking out of the cave entrance. Thundercracker got up along with Skywarp who trotted happily over to his leader. The three met up and seemed to be communicating without opening their muzzles.
"What?"Bulkhead tilted his helm watching the three seekers who then turned and took off into the sky.
Scavenger walked back up next to him, "That was them communicating in there bond." He shook his helm, "I don't think I could survive listening to more than my own thoughts in my processor."
"What do you mean?" Bulkhead watched as the seekers became nothing but dots in the distance.
"Seekers live and fight in trines, the stronger the bond the more they fight as one being." Scavenger grinned, "They killed Arachnid not too long ago."
"They did what!?" Arcee broke off from her spar with Blurr who huffed and followed her.
Scavenger looked surprised at how fast Arcee seemed interested in this, "Well, yeah. The three took her out after a plan Starscream came up with to kill her. My guess is, Starscream had more of a reason to have her killed than anyone else I know."
Arcee growled, "I was going to get my revenge on her." She stomped her paw on the ground, "She killed my other partner!"
Blurr snorted, "Seems to me anyone partnered with you is doomed." She glared at him ready to claw his optics out when the black dragonformer stood between her and him.
"Seems to me your shadow wants to spar." Arcee hissed at the black one.
Blurr looked at his companion that he had become fascinated and close to over the past months. "Sure, Makeshift have fun."
The black dragon snorted and walked back to the sparing area. Arcee grinned at how easy this would be. By the look on Blurr's and Scavengers muzzles, Bulkhead knew that this would be a very humiliating fight for Arcee.
Hours later the trine returned to the ship. A storm was brewing outside and Starscream didn't want his two partners to get caught in the storm. They sadly didn't beat the rain so there they were walking through the halls, water dripping from there metal forms.
"I hate rain!" Skywarp grumbled as he shook the water off of himself.
"Hey watch it!" Thundercracker raised his wing as a shield from the new rain shower Skywarp had made.
Smiling sheepishly, Skywarp laughed, "Sorry Cracker."
Rolling his optics Starscream just kept walking letting the drops of water slide right off of him. Rain never bothered him when he went to fly, but unlike himself his trine mates have yet to experience flying in storms. He was not looking forward to them crashing from high winds and the thought of them being hit by lightning, He was already getting a processor ache.
"You both need to go bother someone else besides each other." Starscream continued to walk away from them, "That also includes myself, Skywarp!" He didn't even need to look to know that Skywarp had just opened his muzzle to annoy him. The audible clicking from him closing said muzzle confirmed his suspicions.
"I'm going to find the twins." Skywarp flashed purple before the purple orb surrounded him and he disappeared.
"This can't end well for anyone." Thundercracker followed Starscream into the base. A loud angry yell echoed down the hall causing both of them to look up. "Well… 5 seconds… new record?" Thundercracker smiled when Starscream just shook his helm.
"Why does he always have so much energy?" Starscream kept walking ignoring the loud yelling and laughing coming from far down the hallway.
"Your guess is as good as mine." Thundercracker looked at the younger seeker who looked exhausted.
"You need to go rest. I'll take care of it." He said as he felt his minicon detach from him.
Swindle followed suit and sat on Starscream's back. He sagged down just as tired as his partner. Starscream purred as he moved along the hall toward his room.
Thundercracker watched as his trine leader left to go rest for a while. A bang and more yelling was heard down the other hall. Sighing it was his turn to ring in his hyper mate. Zapmaster detached from Thundercracker and groaned. Skywarp was a pain in the aft was all he knew and Thundercrash agreed with him.
They stooped at the opening to the rec room and stood there. Thundercracker raised an optic ridge at what was going on. The twins and Skywarp seemed to be in some paint war with each other and seemed to be hitting everyone in the room. Ratchet was spotted pink and green, Scavenger was pink and yellow, Hoist was yellow and green, and bulkhead was all three colors. The four colored dragons were chasing the three culprits around the room.
"Primus… What did we do to deserve this?" Thundercracker looked down as Blurr walked up to his side. Makeshift stood behind the other looking into the room at the chaos.
"Don't know, we just got back." Thundercracker shrugged.
"What in Primus is going on here!?" Arcee looked into the room.
"It looks to be a lousy paint job." Makeshift looked at her using his own voice that changed constantly.
Arcee looked at the black dragon, "Please, pick a voice." To which Makeshift silently laughed at.
Blurr smirked, "He would if he changed into someones form." Blurr looked at her and Thundercracker, "Duck." He bowed his helm and behind him makeshift followed.
Thundercracker didn't even need a second warning and ducked. Arcee quickly followed and felt a paint balloon fly right over her helm.
"I think we should stop this from getting anymore out of hand." Arcee stood back up.
"Agreed." All three of the males moved into the room and grabbed who ever was closest to them. Arcee jumped and landed on Ratchet before he could hit one of the pranksters.
"Ok enough fun all of you." Optimus and Jetfire walked into the room looking at the chaos. Their minicons tilted their helms and started to converse with each other.
Thundercracker got off of Skywarp who smiled and nuzzled his slightly bigger mate. Blurr and Makeshift got off of the twins who groaned.
"Get off!" Ratchet pushed Arcee off who just snorted in amusement.
"Where's Starscream?" Jetfire questioned as he looked around the room.
"I told him to go recharge, he was looking a little tired when we got back." Thundercracker stepped forward to give his leaders the information.
"Well I guess he is going to miss this." Jetfire moved to the side and Red Alert and Hotshot came in supporting Bumblebee between them.
"Bumblebee!" Arcee and Bulkhead rushed to the youngling who smiled and chirped at them happily.
"He just came out of stasis." Red looked to Ratchet, "I decided to make the call and let him out of the repair bay." Red looked a little uneasy, "I know you said to give him time bu-"
"Oop bop bop," Ratchet moved to his ex-student, " He was your patient and though I would have given him more time, you have just as much authority as me." He looked over at the yellow youngling, "I think you made a good call." He patted the other on the shoulder.
Thundercracker watched as everyone interacted with the now awake youngling. The last time he stopped into see how he was, he was still in stasis lock with a broken spinel strut.
"Hey, TC!" Sideswipe moved to the seeker with his brother, "I want to ask a question that I think everyone here has been dying to hear."
Nodding Thundercracker looked at the twins, "Go on."
Sideswipe looked at Sunstreaker who nodded, "How did you two became a trine with Starscream?" They asked together.
The room quieted as everyone waited to hear. Thundercracker paused and looked at his mate. Skywarp nodded and moved to get onto one of the comfortable place in the rec room.
"I will tell you but it will be a long story, It involves not just us, but Starscream and his parents as well as how our kind work." Thundercracker moved to lay down beside his mate. Everyone followed and layed down near them.
"You see Starscream is the youngest of our trine. In Fact he was not yet of trining age when he trined with Skywarp here. Though I guess I should start it from the beginning from what Starscream had told us about it." Thundercracker began to tell the tale:
The sun was just making its way over the vast city of Vos. The crystals shining in rainbow colors as seekers woke to greet the morning rays. The tallest crystal held the royal family inside of its vast size. A seeker stood tall watching his people fly and play.
"Steelwing?" He turned at the sound of his name. His mate moved to stand next to him. Steelwing was a large and intimidation seeker. His white color outlined in black made his red optics stand out.
His mate on the other hand was small. He was a light blue seeker with red and orange outlines. Since their first clutch his mate's health had been declining for the last couple of cycles.
"Yes, Skyrise?"
"The clutch is about to hatch will you join me?" The smaller seeker looked up at his mate in hope.
Smiling Steelwing got up, "Yes."
They moved further into the crystal cave and into the nesting area. Three eggs sat inside of the nest. One was a large green and black color, the second was light blue and white, and the last and smallest one was silver and red.
Steelwing smiled as he looked at the metal eggs. The smallest one moved first and a chirp came from it. It suddenly transformed into a small seekerling. It's red optics looked up at it's parents.
"Look!" Skyrise moved to pick the seekerling up. "He has my frame type!" Skyrise cuddled the small seekerling to him happily. "Let's call him Starscream!"
Smiling Steelwing moved to look at his son, "Starscream… I like the sound of that." His attention was caught by the other two eggs moving. Just like their brother they transformed as well.
Two young seekerlings looked up to their parents and chirped happily. Steelwing moved and managed to grab the two of them together. He placed them next to his mate who happily pulled the close. They sniffed at him and their brother before all three decided to go into recharge cuddled together.
"Hm," Steelwing looked at the green one, "Junglewing."
"Junglewing," Skyrise hummed and smiled, "Yes that is perfect. The last one, how about Snowcloak?"
Steelwing nodded, "Snowcloak it is." He was happy with his little family, one speed type like his mate and two combat type like himself. He could only hope that the near future they would find their own trines.
Vorns later:
Steelwing stood in front of his council who were arguing against each other. The argument today was about how the cities were looking down on them and their power growing.
"Enough!" Steelwing slammed his paws onto the crystal he stood on. The crystal rang with the force he hit it with making everyone quiet down. "The other cities do not apply to us. We separated from them when Vos showed us this place. If a war was to ever break out we will stand our ground as neturals to the fighting!"
"And how will we make sure they stay backed down!"
"Their numbers grow everyday, we only have a city full of seekers and halflings!"
"We need to show them we have power!"
Steelwing sighed and rubbed a paw over his muzzle. What could he do to get the council to calm down even a bit? His optics widened when an idea came to him.
"I could have my oldest trine with two seekers." He called out, "My eldest is a genius at his age."
The council quieted for a bit before one of them questioned, "He is but, 100 vorns old(10 years old)!"
"And I can promise you he can get a trinemate at his age to show you and them, that we do have power here!" Steelwing didn't want to make his son tirne so early but it would keep the council calm.
"Very well." One of the oldest council members said, "He will have one day to find a trinemate, and it will be tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" Steelwings wings lowered a bit, 'That is not enough time to get him familiarized with any of the younglings at the orphanage!'
"Very well." He left the council hall an flew back to his cave. When he arrived he moved into the cave and found his mate curled up with their third clutch of eggs. Starscream was laying next to him asleep while Junglewing wrestled with Snowcloak. Looking around he did not spot his other sparklings. That was until Starscream moved a little and his wing showed where the other two where.
Since hatching the youngest were always found with their oldest brother. Little Redcloud and Windrain. Both sparklings had his mates frame type, making them smaller than their two older brothers.
"Sire's back!" Snowcloak moved and jumped onto his back followed by Junglewing. Starscream only opened an optic before huffing and going back into recharge. His two younger brothers did the same copying him.
"Steel?" Skyrise called looking worriedly.
'The council was a little painky today, I made a deal to have Starscream trine to another youngling.'
Skyrise hissed, 'He's too young! You already tried to see if he would have any connection to the other younglings around like his brothers do."
'The orphanage is the last place to find a trine mate for him. The council wants us to show the other cities we are strong by having our young seekerling trine.'
Skyrise flicked his tail in agitation, "I don't like this at all." He said aloud.
Starscream opened his optic to look at his creators. They looked stressed and worried about something. Huffing again he curled himself further around his younger siblings. He knew something was going to happen but he didn't know what.
The next day Starscream figured out what it was. He sire took him to the orphanage where many younglings older and bigger than him were trining. Those that would be the second wing fought there trine leader till the other won. The third would show off their abilities and the trine leader would sing to them. Some that became desperate would sing and show off. Those ones where the ones that were going to be put down later that day to save them from losing their minds.
"You know what to do," Steelwing pushed his son forward using his muzzle. "Go and find yourself a trine mate or both of them." He smiled proudly at him.
'I don't want to even be here or trining at all.' Starscream groaned and moved into the many seekerlings looking for a partner. Moving further in he saw many trine leaders sleeping ignoring the chaos around them. 'Guess I'm not the only one who has no interest.'
He moved to a clear spot and layed down. From here he could see his sire looking a bit disappointed at him, 'You knew I didn't want to be here and the fact I am too young!' A purple light caught his optic and he looked at it. A third wing was appearing and disappearing in front of some trine leaders who seemed disgusted by the display. 'He will get someone interested in him.' Starscream closed his optics and laid his helm down on his paws.
"Wait, so how is Starscream bonding going to show the other cities that Vos had power?" Bulkhead tilted his helm.
"The other cities knew that only the most powerful seekers would bond at a young age. Starscream was very young still not even in his older youngling stage (15-19 years old). It's thought that the younger the trine leader is the more powerful they are in the optics of the council." Thundercracker sighed. "I wish i had stayed though, I put you in so much pain." He nuzzled Skywarp.
"Hey, Let's get back to the story!" Sideswipe and Hotshot both called.
"Here let me take over, this part is mostly about me!" Skywarp wagged his tail and happily started his part. "Ok so this happened after thundercracker left and before I saw Starscream, So-"
Thundercracker decided he didn't want to wait for his trine leader to find him. He decided to go with the first trine leader who looked powerful and challenged him. So that left Skywarp by himself. Skywarp was the same age as Thundercracker only being a couple of deca-cycles younger. This was their last chance to find a trine leader.
Skywarp watched sadly as Thundercracker left with his new trine mates. All he could do was vent and turn around with a happy smile. There were plenty of trine leaders and their second who he could try to impress with his sigma ability.
Skywarp found his sigma ability on accident when he was running from some of his bullies at the orphanage. They managed to corner him and he just wished he was next to Thundercracker. He imagined where Thundercracker was and felt his spark jump to where he was. The next moment he was falling from the sky and landed right on top of Thundercracker. Thundercracker was not amused about what had happened and how Skywarp had made it to him. Back then the two were inseparable going places together and making the bullies leave them alone.
Now it was only Skywarp who needed to find his place. It seemed that the only ones that still had a place for a third wing like him were those that had the bullies in them. When the trine leaders would get interested in Skywarps sigma they would then get their other partners option and it was never favorable. So Skywarp would leave and move on to the next one till there was no one left. Many of the ones that didn't know him followed their trine piers and ignored him.
Looking back at the guards of the orphanage he could see them giving him pitying looks. He knew that this was the end for him. Without a trine he would go mad as time past.
He was just about to go to them in defeat when he spotted the trine leaders who didn't come over to find trine mates. These trine leaders didn't feel any bonds to any of the seekerlings in the area. So to pass the time for their creators to pick them up they slept. Deciding to run over there Skywarp started to show off.
He tried with the bigger older ones but they too turned him away. These seekers already had another trine mate and didn't see any third or second trine mate that fit their taste. Backing away from a very pissed off trine leader he woke up he moved away quickly.
Spotting a small seeker recharging further away from the others skywarp moved toward him. He sang and warped around the other to get him to look. The only thing the silver seeker did was open an optic and grunt. He flicked his tail out and wacked Skywarp on the head.
Skywarp squealed and backed away. He looked on with sorrowful optics as the silver youngling closed his optics and turned his head away. This youngling trine leader was his last hope and now it was gone.
Walking with his tail dragging on the ground Skywarp moved toward the guards. They cood and chirped saddened that another spark would be snuffed out after the other younglings left.
A chirp sounded from behind Skywarp startled him to the point he jumped and turn quickly. The silver youngling was now standing and glaring down at him. It stomped it's clawed paw and screeched down at him wings flared to make it seem bigger. When Skywarp didn't react, the younger snorted and moved toward him.
The whole field was quiet as they watched the young trine leader. Starscream moved around the large black and purple seekerling. He studied him closely as he circled him. Skywarp was frozen in place. Never had a trine leader circled him to study him before. This youngling was very different as he ignored the grunts and whispers from the other younglings around him.
Stopping in front of Skywarp Starscream looked to the other younglings. He held himself confidently and seemed to give the impression that he was looking down on them. With a glare Starscream turned and sang to Skywarp. Too shocked to respond Skywarp could only look at the other in hope and happiness. Again Starscream sang glaring at the other now.
The second time Starscream sang Skywarp sang back happily. Her watched as the silver one glared over his shoulder at the guard. With a flip of the helm Starscream turned and started to walk away. He stopped when the purple youngling didn't follow and looked back at him.
The purple youngling was standing shifting from paw to paw. Starscream flicked his tail and waited for the other to take the hint. Skywarp then clumsily followed behind the other. He lead him through the other trining partners and over to where the creators of the trine leaders were waiting.
"What's your name?" The Silver one asked Skywarp.
"Skywarp, I renamed myself after I got my Sigma ability." He moved closer to the smaller one as he was lead between the fully grown seekers.
"Skywarp. My name is Starscream." Starscream looked back at him making sure he was keeping up.
"Oh, so are you going to be stopping by here so we can train?" Skywarp trotted happily next to him now.
"No." Starscream kept facing forward leading the other to where his sire was, "You will be staying with my family unit."
Skywarp stopped in surprise, "You must be from one of those high class family units. That's the only reason I would be allowed to live with you...right?"
"Something like that." Starscream kept looking ahead. He spotted his sire with his guards next to him. He changed his brisk walk into a full out sprint to his sire.
Steelwing looked down when his oldest came out of the crowd chirping up to him. Behind him he saw a much larger youngling following after before he stopped and gapped up at Steelwing.
Smiling Steelwing nuzzled his creation happily, "So you felt the bond with this youngling?"
Starscream only nodded before he was picked up by his scruff bar. He grunted and curled up with his tail curled right between his legs. Her watched as one of his sires guards picked up Skywarp the same way.
'You could have told me you were a prince!' Skywarp's voice echoed in the back of Starscream's processor.
Wincing at the foreign feeling Starscream hummed, 'You never asked specifically which high class I was from only if I was from one of them.' He smirked.
Thundercracker stopped Skywarp there, "Ok, I think they should here mine now." He smiled at the pout he got for the younger dragons.
"But, I was getting to the part where I got to meet the rest of the royal family!" Skywarp groaned, "Then again Junglewing hated me...yeah maybe we should move on." He smiled sheepishly.
Clearing his vents Thundercracker started, "This happened in the battle of Crestor-"
The battlefield was nothing but cries of the dying and those that were angered by their fallen comrades. Thundercracker had been apart of his trine for many vorns. He had yet to see his younglinghood friend Skywarp in that time. Think back he guessed that his friend must have been put down by the elders. He wished Skywarp had given up on his hope that their trine leader was coming for them in the end. Now here he was on a battlefield with his allies dieing under plasma fire.
"Thundercracker!" His trine leader called but it was too late as he was hit from a grounders fire.
Thundercracker could only curl up as much as he could as he hit the ground hard. He got up quickly and hit the grounder that was on him. It didn't take long to have himself surrounded by the enemy. Using his sigma he let loose a thundering crack as he flapped his now silver glowing wings. After that he took to the skies again and fired on the grounders below him.
"Stop playing around Cracker." The second wing looked at his third companion. "The air commander is here on the battlefield!"
"Meaning we can't look bad in front on him." His trine leader pulled up next to him.
Thundercracker never felt enough of a bond to them, but they did save him from being put down that day. "Yes, of course, Shadowflight."
Nodding Shadow looked to his third, "Let's go Hopper!" They both flew down firing heavily onto the Autobot troops.
Looking in the distance Thundercracker saw a sliver flash and many autobots go flying. The silver flash was followed by a purple one that hit the autobots with plasma blast. There was only the two of them in the distance. He was going to question where the last one of that team was but was distracted.
More plasma fire was shot at him and he had to barrelroll out of the way. He caught himself as he neared the ground and released another shot of his sigma ability. When he did he almost caught the silver flash in it. The silver dragonformer quickly turned up catching the wind under his metal wings and using his thrusters to climb again.
Wincing Thundercracker followed it up into the sky. There he saw the silver dragon glaring at him. "I am sorry for almost hitting you in the-"
"We are in the middle of a battle, hold your apologies for later when they will mean nothing!" The silver dragon snapped at him and flew by him growling.
Thundercracker could only hover there in shock for a bit. He knew he was in the middle of a battlefield but, the other didn't have to snap at him like that.
'Thundercracker where are you!' Shadow called through their bond, "We are getting hammered here!'
'I'm one my-' Thundercracker was cut off by a sharp cry of pain and then silence.
'Hopper!' Shadow and thundercracker both cried out.
Thundercracker flew straight down spotting his trine mate's body in the grasp of a large grounder. His trine mate was dead killed by the crushing jaws that grounders were gifted with. Shadow came straight in and started to fight the other. He would have won if Shadow had not been so badly injured from the autobots he just fought through to get there.
Thundercracker made it just in time to see his trine leader go down with the same crushing grip as Hopper fell to. Feeling both of their bonds break from him he let his rage control him.
When he inclined his optics moments later the grounder was dead and the two seekers he saw earlier were circling them. He tried to get up but his body hurt so much. He could feel his spark dying, trying to follow his partners into the well of sparks.
The purple one flew down and when he got close Thundercracker knew who he was. Skywarp had grown into a strong adult dragonformer. He approached slowly and cautiously toward Thundercracker. When he moved Skywarp bared his fangs at him and growled. Something that Skywarp had never done before when they were younglings.
Groaning in pain as his spark flared again Thundercracker closed his optics and dug his claws into the ground below him. Skywarp jumped and backed away with a worried chirp. He looked toward the two dead seekers before his optics grew wide.
"Starscream!" Thundercracker head Skywarp cry up to the silver dragonformer still circling over helm.
The silver one dived straight down and came to a sudden stop before landing on the ground without a noise.
'What is it, Skywarp?' Starscream looked at his trine mate before looking at the dieing Thundercracker.
'He's dying!' Skywarp paced in front of Starscream.
'And? What do you want me to do about it?' He didn't even need to ask as he heard the thoughts going through his trine mates processor. 'Is that what you wish?' Starscream held himself tall as he watched Skywarp turn his coolant filled optics to him. 'Very well.'
Moving Starscream approached Thundercracker. He nudged to larger seeker over onto his back. Thundercracker hissed and swiped at Starscream. Dodging the swipe Starscream jumped and landed on the others abdomen plates. He then clawed at Thundercrackers spark chamber.
Thundercracker felt the other clawing at his chest plates right where his spark chamber was. He tried to fight back but was growing weaker by the moment. He felt as Starscream got his claw into his chest and pulled his spark chamber open. Moving so his spark chamber was over Thundercrackers Starscream whispered, "I am only doing this for Skywarp, I could care less if you died here."
With that a flash of pain went through Thundercracker and a bond was forced to form where the broken one was. From that one bond another was forcibly formed as well. The pain stopped as Starscream got up and closed his own Spark chamber. He leaped off the other making sure to dig his back pede into the others abdomen armor.
"Welcome to my trine, Thundercracker." And with that Starscream flew up into the sky to wait for his trine mates.
Thundercracker laid there in shock as he was forced to bond to the silver seeker. Skywarp moved over to him bouncing excitedly next to him, "Come on Cracker let's go!" He pulled at Thundercracker who growled and pushed the other away.
Skywarp didn't let it show on his muzzle at how much being pushed away from his old friend hurt him. He took comfort from the emotions Starscream was sending him through their bond to him. He took off to the sky to join him.
Thundercracker was angry at what had just transpired. He was now in a forced trine bond with a seeker he didn't know and Skywarp. Though he missed his old friend he couldn't believe that the other asked for this to happen. He took to the skies after them. He fell into his second position as they continued to fly back to Dark mount.
Thundercracker came to an end as he looked around the room. The others were in shook. They all had questions and he could easily answer them.
"You were upset with the bond and called it a forced trine bond, is that really bad?" Sideswipe asked.
Nodding he explained, "It is, It means I had no choice in the matter."
"But, it saved your life, Starscream and Skywarp both saved you that day." Arcee looked at the wall behind him.
"Yes, My spark would have followed my old trine mates to the well of sparks if he hadn't done what he did." Looking at his mate Thundercracker smiled, "And I am glad that Starscream was so nice about it."
"Nice, you said he dug his pede into you." She glared at him now.
"Yeah, but I had also almost hit him earlier in the battle, so that was him getting even." Thundercracker laughed, "I got over it in the end when Starscream came to my defence later on. Thrust and his cronies had me cornered and I was low on energy. I remember Starscream just waltzing up to them and asking what they thought they were doing with his second?. Their faces were priceless, and the threat to remove all reproductive units from them painfully if they didn't leave me alone was even better."
"You should have seen it when Starscream threatened them with wing removal when they had beaten me up in the hall. Best part was later Starscream did just that when the air commander fight had started. Thrust was so pissed and in pain from that." Skywarp grinned at the memory.
"Wish I was around to see that fight. My trine joined later into the troops."
Ratchet groaned as he got up, "I think it's time we all go into recharge." His old joins where telling him that it was time to rest.
"I agree," Optimus got up as well followed by the others. "There is much to think about now that we have more of your back stories." He nodded to thundercracker and Skywarp.
"We are glad to give you some information, Optimus Prime." Thundercracker bowed his helm down to the autobot leader before walking out of the rec room with Skywarp on his tail.
"Wait where will we be putting Bumblebee?" Arcee stopped from leaving the room as well. She hopped he didn't need to stay in the repair bay.
"Oh," Red Alert moved as he helped Bumblebee up, "Got that covered, He is staying with Starscream."
Bumblebee made a distraught noise and Acree growled. "Hey, he has enough room for others to stay with him." He looked to Ratchet for help.
"The kid is right," Ratchet moved to check Bumblebee out. "Besides, form what we learned Starscream will not hurt Bumblebee."
Blurr moved to Bumblebees other side, "Here let me help ya."
Makeshift nodded as well and lead the way to Starscream's room. Arcee followed with Optimus and Ratchet.
Red Alert sent the code to unlock the seekers personal room. The door moved open and together he and Blurr moved Bumblebee into the room. They helped him onto the berth next to a recharging Starscream who had left enough room for the other to get onto the berth. It looked like he already knew beforehand that he was getting a roommate.
"This is a really nice room." Ratchet remarked as he looked out the glass wall. "Glass walls so he can look out and not feel trapped, good touch."
"Jetfire thought it would be a good idea to give him this room." Blurr mumbled as he moved out of the room with Makeshift heading to their shared room. "Besides, seekers get antsy if they are in closed rooms all the time, 'Claustrophobia' I think it's called."
"You will be fine, Starscream will take care of you at night." Red Alert lead the others out of the room and locked the door. "He will be fine." He looked at Arcee when he said that and with a nod from he they moved on.
Inside the room Bumblebee laid on his side and whimpered. He felt a tail snake around him and pull him into the seekers side. Looking over, it appeared Starscream never woke from his recharge. A chirp pulled his attention to a small red helm sticking out from under Starscream's. It chirped again soothingly before ducking back under the seekers helm between his paws.
The minicon seemed so calm in this room. Bumblebee laid his helm down and shuttered his optics. He fell into recharge listening to Starscream purring as he slept.
Further away from the base a light light up the sky. A shooting star fell from the heavens and landed miles away from the small town. A dragon crawled out of the pod that had fallen. Looking around he hummed and moved quickly into the desert. He hoped he would find his comrades in this area.
Here is some information that will be given as time goes by:

Teletraan "Looking up data on the species please wait as more data will appear as it is found.
Seekers: Supposedly the most powerful and quickest of the dragonformer race. In the time of the predacons, seekers where the apex predator. During this time the sensors in the wings made it impossible to hide from them or sneak up on them. Seekers use momentum and their fierce claws to tear an enemy apart. Seeker legs are known to be the strongest part of the seeker, their legs need to support their takeoff and their landing from G-Forces and weight. Seekers fly in pairs of three called Trine's. Each trine has a leader and their two followers. Trine leader is not picked from the strongest, but from the smartest of the group the strongest is usually made the second wing. Most seekers are born with two base colors, triple colors are seen in those who are mutated. Seekers have a sigma ability which allows them to pull difficult and impossible things (ex. Starscream's null ability, Thundercrackers sonic boom clap, Skywarps transwarping). (more data receiving)
Grounders: Large ground bound dragonformers. The grounders are the largest of the dragonformer race. Grounders have a larger bulk to them allowing them to intimidate their targets. Grounders don't usually have sigma abilities like seekers. Trained in hunting and stalking they can easily overpower a seeker who is grounded from a wounded wing. Those grounders who are best at stalking are known to have a slimmer frame to them. Long legs and a sleek body they could pass as a seeker born without wings. (Ex. Optimus (intimidation type), Bulkhead (Strength type), Arcee (stalker type))
Sub-Seekers: A sub base of seeker that evolved from a union of grounder and seeker. Depending on how strong the CNA of the species is the sub-seeker can have wings or not. Some have even exhibited the sigma gene.(Ex: Soundwave telepathy, Jetfire fire armor, Bumblebee normal, Blurr Speed/Glider). (More data required)
