Alexis yawned as she woke up on her side. She sighed seeing Starscream wasn't there. Hm, the early riser—as always. Oh well though that didn't stop her from getting up and dressed.
Once she did she left the room to find where Starscream had gone. She looked around their home and found he wasn't there. Where could he have gone? She then realized the king may have called him to a meeting.
So she went to leave, but found the door was locked. She slumped her shoulders and only thought to herself about who put this broken lock in. She never tried it out so how come it worked now? She soon turned to look out the window to see Starscream outside getting some wood.
He turned to see she had her fists on her hips. He gave her a smirk and just waved. All she did was point to the door mouthing 'Open this door!'. Starscream just sighed and and dropped the wood he was gathering.
Once he unlocked and opened the door he stood before Alexis making sure she couldn't come out. He had his hands on his hips just looking very intimidating before her.
"Why did you lock me in?" asked Alexis wanting an explanation. "Did I do something wrong?"
"Oh yea," said Starscream with a smirk as he shook his head.
"What?" asked Alexis with a smile as she crossed her arms and stuck out her hip.
"You sided with the Autobots remember?" said Starscream with that smile of his. "You've been a bad girl, that's why I locked up in here. Megatron's orders not to let you out."
"Well . . . can I persuade my way out?" flirted Alexis as she ran her fingers across his unarmored chest.
"I don't think so," said Starscream looking at her with a plain face.
"You're one tough solider," said Alexis dropping her hand at her side.
"It's my job, have to be," said Starscream smiling.
"Well sorry soldier I need to go gather some things," said Alexis trying to walk past him.
"Where do you think you're going sweetheart?" said Starscream smirking with a bit of a growl as he outstretched his arm to the door to make sure she couldn't go anywhere.
"Out," she said with a bit of a giggle.
"No you're not. You're my prisoner. I'll decide what you do," he said almost purring.
"Oh I'm so scared," she said sarcastically.
"Well you should be," said Starscream coming closer to her forcing her back. "I can do anything I want to you."
At that he shut the door and forced Alexis against the wall. He didn't really pin her down, but she knew she wouldn't be able to move. She looked around her seeing her chances of escape and they were very slim considering her 'large' condition. She then looked back up at Starscream and smiled saying-
"You wouldn't dare do anything to me in my condition."
"Oh would I?" he smirked raising a metal brow.
Starscream then pinned her against the wall pushing his body into hers giving her no room to even move or stand. Her hands were on his shoulders and her legs around his. Her heart began to beat faster and her breathing got heavier.
"No," she said. "My husband will get you if you do, and I don't think my child would like the 'intrusion'."
"Oh I am so scared," said Starscream a bit playful. "As for your child . . . I don't think he'll mind the 'intrusion'."
At that Starscream slammed his lips into hers and kissed her long and passionate. Alexis placed one of her hands on the back of his head and soon wrapped her legs around his waste. Her other hand trailed down to his pelvic armor. Starscream soom grabbed her arm and placed it over her head.
"Just what do you think you're doing?" he playfully smirk.
Alexis just scanned his optics as he said that. Her chest rose and fell quickly just eagerly wanting him. Starscream then kissed her again, but this time picked up her whole body on his.
"I think this will work much better in the bedroom," said Starscream his spark beating just as fast.
"Yea," said Alexis shaking her head.
They kissed close again as Starscream tried to make it to the bedroom, but he never made it. Alexis was pinned to the wall again just being so close to Starscream. Her arms wrapped around his back as his resided on her thighs only trailing up. It wasn't long before Starsceam allowed Alexis to unlatch his armor.
Her lips then found his neck wires and caused his to through his head back in pleasure. Starscream then slammed his hips into Alexis' to make her stop so he could regain himself and she did, but this caused her to tighten the grip she had around his waist. Starscream soon pushed his face into hers and met his glossa with her tongue. They stayed like that for a while till . . . something happened.
Will had been given orders from the king to go and retrieve Starscream and so he just came up to their home, knocked on the door and then entered saying—
"Sir Starscream I have a—"
He halted in his steps as his mouth dropped. Starscream looked back at him and Alexis noticed him as well. She squealed and immediately got out of Starscream's grasp to run red-faced in her room. Lucky for Starscream, his emotions weren't as expressive upon his face as humans.
"I, I'm so sorry sir," said Will looking down.
"It's . . . it's alright," said Starscream clearing his throat knowing in truth he didn't like being interrupted from a bonding with his sparkmate. "What were you saying?"
"The—the king wished to speak with you," said Will still keeping his eyes down. "Come and meet him at the castle."
"Very well," said Starscream placing his hands on his hips and bowing his head. "You may leave."
"Yes sir," said Will taking off rather quick.
"Should've locked the door," mumbled Starscream as he came to their room's door. "Alexis," he knocked.
"Is he gone?" asked Alexis, her voice coming from behind.
"Yes," said Starscream with a smile.
Alexis then opened the door her face still red, but an angry expression this time covered it. She scrunched her lips up at him and said—
"You couldn't have at least locked the door?! What kind of 'soldier' are you?"
"I'm sorry Alexis," said Starscream beginning to laugh seeing the look on her face.
"That was humiliating, not to mention embarrassing," said Alexis running her fingers nervously through her hair as she walked around to calm herself.
"Well at least he knows we're active," chuckled Starscream.
Alexis just glared an evil look at him. It wasn't funny to her, but to Starscream—it seemed to be the funniest thing in the world—getting caught in the middle of bonding. It was probably the look on her face that made him laugh. It always seemed to be like that.
"Well I have to go Alexis," he said picking up his armor and giving her a quick kiss. "I've been summoned by the king."
"'Kay," sighed Alexis waving as he left. "I'll just . . . be here."
"You wanted to see me sire?" said Starscream coming up to him.
"Yes Starscream, here, take a seat," he offered his right side.
Starscream did and it was then the king showed him and map with small pieces on it telling where Leteck's men were and his own. It was then the king pointed to a position between two cliffs where some of Leteck's generals were. He told Starscream if he were to take some men and attack them then they'd be paralyzed.
"I'm not too sure about that," said Starscream leaning back. "Where did you get this information about them being there?"
"From one of our spies," said the king. "But can't you see it's the perfect opportunity to strike? What say you Starscream?"
"I'd say not to do it," said Starscream. "It could be an ambush. You can never tell. I know about ambushes."
"I see," said the king. "Then I shall take some men and strike."
"No," said Starscream never wanting the king to do such a thing. "If you wish it I will do it."
"Thank-you Starscream," said the king leaning back. "You are a good soldier to both your men and king."
Starscream just sighed and so took some men and went. He made sure it wasn't an ambush and so always went first. The way seemed clear, and by what he saw there were Reptilians encamped here.
"Let's attack them!" said Arthur.
"Be patient Arthur," said Will.
"Wait," said Starscream. "I'll go down first."
And so all watched as Starscream silently made his way down to the side of the encampment. He entered a tent of one general and took his sword out ready to kill him, but just as soon as he uncovered the sleeping general he found there was nothing there, but armor.
"I was right!" he growled backing up.
He then heard the cries of his men outside. They were being attacked! He ran outside and looked to see the Reptilians higher up on the cliffs raining laser down on them. They were defenseless from above. He was supposed to be protecting them.
"NO!" he cried jumping out ready to flew up to them.
But something happened where he couldn't. The Reptilians shot down at him with strong wires. They wrapped around him two arms and they only pulled on him causing him not to be able to go anywhere. He gritted his teeth and then forced his engines to roar out. He flew right out in the skies, but soon some wires wrapped around his legs.
He was stuck and he knew it. He saw his men were getting slaughtered and there was nothing he could do about it. His sword was in his right hand, but it was stretched out so far he couldn't bring it back to slice anything. He then took out his null cannons and started shooting out a frenzy and crying out to be released.
The Reptilians held their ground, until king Leteck came with his men to see the stuck Starscream. Starscream looked at him and hated seeing that pleased look on his face. He growled tried to shoot at him, but he was stuck in one direction and couldn't get his cannons anywhere near him.
"LET ME LOOSE!!" he growled.
"You are in no position to be making demands," said Leteck. "Aren't you smarter than this Starscream—to fall into a trap like this and cause your men to die. Was it your choice? Or did you have no choice but to listen to that idiotic king you're so loyal to?"
Starscream didn't say a word though. He just bared his teeth at the Reptile king and only hatred flowed through him. Leteck just smiled as he walked away saying—
"Kill them all."
At that they released Starscream and shot at him numerous times causing him to fall down into the crevice with the rest of his surviving men. The Reptilians then shot at come rocks above the cliff they had gathered for the final blow. The rocks fell and crushed everyone to sheer death.
"There has been no news since," bowed the king as he informed Alexis.
Alexis gasped as her hand went to her mouth. Her eyes widened knowing this couldn't be true could it?
"No!" she gasped shaking her head.
"We don't think they could have survived," said the king casting his eyes down in sadness. "It was all my fault Alexis. I was the one who forced Starscream to go. He warned me and yet—I didn't listen."
"You don't know Starscream though," said Alexis looking at him sternly. "He has survived through things a whole lot worse. You have to believe me."
"I don't know if I can Alexis," sighed the king turning. "I am . . . so sorry."
As he left Alexis she fell on the chair she was sitting on and just wept. Starscream couldn't be dead could he? The Reptillian's could have killed him. He was too strong for that right? She was so unsure now.
Alexis would wait and see though. As night crept up and the moon came out Alexis did nothing but wait, well until little Starscream decided to lay on her bladder. She kept herself inside ever waiting by the door. Once she heard rustling outside the door her heart lightened wondering if it was him.
She stood up and only gasped as the door opened. Her eyes widened seeing Reptilian soldiers fill in her home silently with weapons in hand. Two came up to her to stop her from screaming or trying to run. Her mouth dropped as a certain reptile entered—King Leteck.
"You!" she growled seeing him again.
"Aw, don't be like that my sweet Alexis," he said coming to her. "I was beginning to think you missed me."
His eyes then trailed down her body to see the plain bulge. He raised a brow as his eyes came back to hers saying—
"Or not."
"Get out of my home you snake!!" she hissed at him.
Tears soon filled her eyes about Starscream and Leteck knew all-too-well what they were for.
"I see you've been informed about Starscream," he said with a pleased smirk.
Alexis didn't say anything. She just wanted to be left alone. He reached out to her, but she only turned her head away from him.
"Aw, don't be like that. I came here to give you a chance to live," he said.
"What are you talking about?! She growled looking at him.
"Since Starscream, the only person keeping this planet from defeat, is no more what is to stop me from killing everyone?" he asked. "You know you're on the list too, but I can easily take you off if you agree to come back to me."
"I'd rather die!" she spat at him.
"Hhh, now you see that was the second choice," he sighed holding his arms out. "Do you really want that for your unborn child? whatever it is."
"He'd gladly approve of my decision!" she growled.
"A 'he' huh? Shame, I was hoping it would be a girl so she could look just like you," he smirked as he ran his fingers through her hair only to have her flinch away.
He just shook his head and straightened. He readied to leave and so let his guards release her as they left.
"Think about it Alexis," he said exiting. "Your child needs life and a father, and you need a lover. I can promise I'll be a better one than Starscream ever was. Just think about it but don't be long."
At that he left and Alexis fell to her knees just crying to herself. By what he said and how he said it, it was like he KNEW Starscream was dead. How could she go on living without him? She couldn't. Her baby needed him and so did she.
She soon picked herself up as she came back to her seat to sit and lay. Her eyes were cast to the ground for the longest time until an idea struck her like an arrow. She shot her hand to her neck to feel her pendant and see if it was whole, but before she had a chance to the door opened again and she feared the worst. In walked Starscream though all battered and torn from being shot at and using his body to protect what men he had left from the rock slide, later digging out himself.
Alexis jumped to her feet and ran to him and embraced him in a tight hug. She cried all over him and he just took his functioning hand to the back of her head to hold her. Her fears had now vanished, but then again . . . some still stayed.
Hot Shot's girl: Don't worry guys the next chp king Leteck will get what was coming to him . . . no wait . . . the chapter after that I think. Oh well he'll just get it! The next one Starscream decided to have a battle till the death, winner leaves. So until then bye.
