The next day, after getting all healed. The Predacon had returned, and went on a successful mission to retrive another bone, with no help from Starscream. Starscream was the so called trainer, and was doing a terrible job. Knocking the communications out, on the ship. Soundwave had to fix that of course. After the satalite was repaired, and Knockout returned with another bone. Soundwave was bored with nothing to do. The Predacon was currently being trained by Starscream at the moment. And Soundwave had to see for himself, how that was going.
Walking out onto the flight deck, Soundwave saw Starscream sprint past with flames hot on his tailpipe. Soundwave laughed, as Starscream hit the deck to avoid being roasted. /Going well Screamer?/ Soundwave texted. "Useless beast dosen't listen to a thing I say!" Starscream snorted getting to his peds. "Even if I give him a zap!" Starscream whined giving the predacon another zap with an electric rod. The Predocan growled and shot another burst of flames at the annoying seeker. /Your approach might be a little bit too much/ Soundwave calmly approached the Predacon. "I approached it calmly!" Starscream scoffed. /Maybe he dosen't like you... like most bots on this ship.../ Soundwave reached out a servo to the Predacon. "Soundwave, don't! He will attack you!" Starscream warned. The Predacon gave a robotic croon, and lowered it's massive helm. Allowing Soundwave to pet him. /See/ Starscream scowled at Soundwave. "Oh for Primus sake, I just want it to get in it's kennel!" Starscream kicked the robotic dragons hind leg. The Predacon gave a low growl, turning to Starscream. /Starscream don't, you're just going to upset him/ Soundwave warned, scratching under the Predacon's chin, making it purr and tilt it's massive helm. "Soundwave I don't care! You are interrupting. Get your little youngling aft. Back inside, before I kick it!" Starscream threatened, jabbing Soundwave with the offline electric prod. Predacon snarled, stepping infront of Soundwave protectively. Screeching at Starscream threateningly. Starscream stumbled a few steps back, and scowled angrily. "You are controling it to do this aren't you!?" Starscream growled. /No. Honest I'm not!/ Soundwave replied waving his servos. "Soundwave you lying piece of scrap!" Starscream began to approach. Predacon growled and began to stalk Starscream in threatening manner. "Ah! You train it! It's getting late anyway!" Starscream yelped, dropping the prod as a ball of fire flew at him, as he quickly darted back inside. Predacon snorted, then turned back to Soundwave, when he heard giggling emitting from the youngling.
"Well I've only seen Screamy run like that when he's running from my dad" Soundwave chuckled, rubbing the robot dragons helm, making it croon and purr. Soundwave finished patting the beast, calmly walking across the flight deck to the kennel, with Predacon in tow. "See wasn't too hard was it?" Soundwave cooed, giving the Predacon another pat on the helm after they were both standing inside the kennel. Predacon gave a loving nudge to Soundwave with his helm, and purred. "Yes you did a good job" Soundwave yawned, tiredly patting Predacon. Predacon sensed the younglings energy was depleating, and needed rest. "Anyway, I should probably go recharge now" soundwave gave a tired sigh, stepping out of the kennel. Predacon whined and followed Soundwave. "No stay" Soundwave shook his helm. Trying to walk once more, again the predacon followed. "Fine guess I could stay for a little while..." Soundwave tiredly trudged his way back into the kennel. Predacon purred with please and layed down. Soundwave sat beside him and tried to stay awake. Predacon curled his tail to his side, sliding Soundwave against his side. Soundwave was too tired to argue with the beasts gesture, trying to stay awake Soundwave swayed trying to stay upright. Predacon used his huge paw to slide Soundwave to his chest, leaning the youngling against his giant frame. Soundwave unconsciously rested his servos and helm on one of Predacon's front legs. Predacon purred soothing Soundwave into recharge. Laying his massive helm on his paws, using his neck as a blanket over Soundwave.
"Soundwave?" Megatron called, peeking into the bridge. "Sorry Lord Megatron. Soundwave is not here" an Eradicon, answered to Soundwave's call. Megatron nodded and continued down the hallway, bumping into Knockout. "Knockout. Is Soundwave with you?" Megatron asked curiously. "No my liege he is not. Why?" Knockout replied. "Well I can't find him anywhere" Megatron sighed, looking around the hallway. "What's that youngling up to now?" Knockout shook his helm. "I do not know, but It is getting late. He should be recharging by now, and he knows that" Megatron scoffed, as they continued down the halls. "Hmm, did you chech his..." Megatron nodded. "Yes I already checked his room" Megatron sighed. Just as they rounded a corner they found Starscream. "Hey Screamer. Have you seen our little glowing bundle of knowledge?" Knockout approached the seeker. "Last I saw him, was with the Predacon" Starscream rolled his optics. "Why aren't you with the Predacon!?" Megatron snarled, threateningly standing over the seeker. "Soundwave came out, and was critising my method of training the beast. And Started training it himself! Besides it would only listen to him!" Starscream whimpered. "Show me!" Megatron hissed.
Starscream quickly lead them to the flight deck. Where no Predacon or youngling were to be seen. "Starscream!" the gunmetal war lord growled. "Um, over there!" Starscream nervously looked around. Seeking out the beast in it's kennel. All three mechs approached the slumbering beast and did not see the youngling. The beast lifted it's helm to the sound of peds beside him, revieling the recharging youngling. "How cute... freaking sparkling" Starscream mumbled. Predacon turned his helm to the seeker, and gave a low growl. Starscream gave a whimpy gasp and hid behind Knockout. "How adorable, they bonded" Knockout crooned. "Adorable? Soundwave already possesses one fly pet already. Last thing he needs is one on a larger scale!" Starscream hissed, leaving the deck. Megatron approached the Predacon, and knelt down next to his slumbering youngling. "Soundwave, wake up youngling" Megatron softly spoke. Soundwave slowly lifted his helm, to see Megatron infront of him. "Hi" Megatron smiled. "Come youngling time go inside and recharge" Megatron encouraged. Soundwave sat up tiredly, swaying from exhaustion. "I don't think that's going to happed" Knockout softly chuckled. Megatron gave a small chuckle himself. "Come here" Megatron cooed, promtly picking up his youngling. Soundwave to exhausted to argue, and fell back into recharge resting his helm on his fathers chest. As the two left, taking the youngling, Predacon got up and made his way over to the communications satalite. And begun to research on Predacons.
Megatron being to caught up in Soundwave's adorable youngling self. Took him with to his room, and started reading reports. He had read quite a few, before Soundwave began to shift in his arm, bringing him out of his reading. "I suppose I shout put you to bed" Megatron smiled, getting up from his seat. Walking into the room next to his, he placed his youngling on the berth. Soundwave shifted for a moment, Making Megatron think he woke him. After shifting into a comfortable position Soundwave fell back into a peacful recharge. The gunmetal warlord smiled warmly, before quietly exiting.
The next day was insane, Starscream and Knockout were experimenting with dark and synthetic energon. And Soundwave found that out the hard way. Soundwave was calmly walking down the hallways towards his room, for a break. And happened to come across a zombified Eradicon soldier, walking with an odd limp. /Excuese me. Are you ok?/ Soundwave asked, walking over to the soldier. The soldier turned and made an odd noise, Soundwave tilted his helm, at the sound he's never heard before. /Um, maybe you should go see Knockout.../ Soundwave texted, warily taking a couple steps past the soldier. The Eradicon soldier took a heavy step towards the youngling, continuing to make odd noises. /Seriously, go see Knockout! You have a virus of some sort, it would probably be a good idea if you did!/ Soundwave held his servos up as he backed away in a panick. The Eradicon picked up his pace before saying "Energon!" releasing an odd tongue like cable, with a hiss. /Scrap!/ Soundwave didn't wait to see what the Eradicon would do. Taking off down the hallway with the terrocon in pursuit. Soundwave sprinted all the way to his fathers room. Wirelessly opening the door charging into the room locking the door tight, and sliding under Megatron's berth. "Hi Soundwave" Megatron bearly greeted, lifting his servo as a greeting, as he continued to read reports. Soundwave peeked his helm out from under the berth. "Dad!" scrambling out from under the berth. "Dad dad dad!" Soundwave ran over to the gunmetal mech at the desk. "Soundwave I'm little to busy to play right now" Megatron sighed, continuing to focus on reports. "No dad you don't understand. There is a monster out in the hallway!" Soundwave corrected his approach. "Soundwave, you know there's no monsters in the hallways" Megatron sighed writing in a report. "No dad. It was real!" Soundwave shook his helm."It had a wierd tongue thing and it walked around this!" Soundwave limped around oddly, making noises. "Blaaaah argh energon!" Megatron raised an optic ridge at his youngling, giving and odd look. "Soundwave you are a youngling, with quite the imagination. I'm sure it was all in your processor" Megatron turned back to his work. "No dad, come I'll show you!" Soundwave pulled on Megatron's massive arm. "Soundwave please let me do my work" Megatron started to get annoyed. "Please, it's super scary! Please come see!" Soundwave whined. Megatron sighed lifting Soundwave onto his lap. "Look there's no such thing as monsters, and there's no super scary hallway monster" Megatron tried to convince. "No there really is please let me show you!" Soundwave pleaded hopping of his fathers lap. "Soundwave there is no monster" Megatron threw his helm back. Soundwave knew there was only one way to get Megatron to agree to come. Either drag him out, or just give up and solve the problem on his own. Soundwave began to eject his tentacles. "Hmm perhaps I shall check it out, the dark energon in my spark is pulsing" Megatron got up from his seat. "What are you doing?" Megatron looked at Soundwave and his tentacles. "I'd make a good monster wouldn't I?" Soundwave giggled, flailing his tentacles and walking like a zombie. "Cute. Now come show me this monster" Megatron gestured to the door. Soundwave and Megatron managed to walk all the through the hallway and stopped at the corner. Having Starscream and Knockout run into them. "Can either one of you tell me what exactly is going on!" Megatron hissed. "Of course my liege. nothing at all" Starscream smiled nervously. "Really because the dark energon with in my spark is pulsing" Megatron scowled. "Allow my to explain. It's Knockout's falt!" Starscream blamed the medic. "Exactly my lie... What!" Knockout gasped. "He was the one experimenting with Silas, giving him a combined cocktail of dark and synthetic energon! Wich turned him into a terrocon, that got loose, and is now turning the entire army into mindless energon sucking terrocons!" Starscream sputtered. "I do not think you have an inch of sanity in your viens Starscream!" Megatron face palmed, while Soundwave giggled. "But if you have been trying to infuse yourself with my dark energon again..." Megatron started to ramble on. Soundwave observed the seekers behaviour, and noticed a look of panick come across the silver mech. "Um, master!" Starscream pointed behind them, and Megatron ignored. Soundwave turned to see what the seeker was freaking about. *Holy freaking Primus there it is!* Soundwave tugged on Megatron's arm and pointed. "You there, what are you doing?" Megatron asked, turning to the zombified soldier. The soldier growled and ignored the leader. "I order you to stand down!" Megatron ordered. "Energon!" the soldier charged at him, and Megatron shot him down with one blast. *Told you!* Soundwave scoffed. Megatron gave the youngling an unimpressed look, before turning to Starscream and Knockout. "We tried to tell you" Starscream smiled.
The next thing Soundwave knew, he was walking down the hallways with the Insecticons and Eradicons exterminating the terrocons. Soundwave kept his distance as his father had instructed him to, so he would not get infected. After a few minutes, the insecticons seized their attacks, and randomly took off. *What the frag?* Soundwave tilted his helm as he watched the Insecticons take flight. "Soundwave Arachnid is on the loose watch yourself" Megatron commed, in annoyed tone. *I'll just get rid of her* Soundwave replied. "Soundwave we do not know if she's infected or not" Megatron growled. *It will be quick* Soundwave ignored the warning. Following the signal as he walked to a hallway enterance. "Soundwave!" Arachnids venom filled voice growled as she and a collection of Insecticons halted. "I vow that on this day, the world will here the sound of your screams!" Arachnid threatened. *Is this for squashing you like a bug?* Soundwave questioned, waiting for the femmes next move. And there it was, the spider femme charged at the youngling, with her fleet of Insecticons. *To the moon you heap of scrap!* Soundwave fired a space bridge located for one of Cybertrons moons. As planed the wretch and mindless soldiers charged through the bridge. Soundwave quickly shut the bridge, turning continuing down the hallway as if nothing had happened. *I hate spiders...* Soundwave shivered, and continued.
