Chapter 13 Fix Him.
Meanwhile everyone else was at the scrap yard wondering where Starscream and Steeljaw had disappeared too.
When Agent Fowler got a call and told them MECH was up to something and were stealing parts to build something. They all decided whatever MECH was building wouldn't be good.
So they all went to try to stop them except for Knock Out who stayed at base with Fixit, Pixel and the humans. He still hadn't regained his confidence yet.
So the others let him stay knowing he needed to work this out on his own at his own pace.
After they had left the communications went down because they blew a fuse. That Fixit and Denny got to work trying to fix.
Then they saw DeAnn who was hugging herself with a worried look.
"What's wrong?" Shayna asked her friend.
"That emphay bond you have with Knock Out I think I may have developed one with Starscream." DeAnn explained.
"Cool." Shayna told her.
"Not at the moment I think he's in trouble." DeAnn said to her. "I keep feeling a lot of sadness and fear on his end."
"Oh no we better tell Knock Out." Shayna suggested. Then both girls ran over to where the red mech was.
Then explained the situation to him. Knock Out couldn't call Starscream do to the com-links being down but DeAnn could use the emphay bond to locate him.
So she, Shayna and Pixel got in Knock Out's alt made and drove off to look for the seeker. They told everyone else to explain what was going on to the others if they returned before they did. And promised to be careful.
Upon arriving in the area Knock Out let the girls and Pixel out of his alt mode and changed back into his bot mode.
Then his optics widened when he spotted Starscream just laying there motionless. And rushed over to look at the damage and hated what he saw.
The seeker's wings and back had been completely ransacked his wings were broken into pieces with parts of them scattered on the ground and some wires and the cybertronian equivalent of a spine were exposed.
And Starscream was leaking a huge amount of energon from his back and wings.
Knock Out also spotted a gash on the seeker's cheek and a few dents and some claw marks. And could tell some of his circuits had been fried. And he recognized Night Wolf's handy work. And knew the seeker had gotten into a fight with him.
"What were you thinking trying to fight that monster without back up?" Knock Out said to the unconscious seeker almost in tears as coolant was threatening to come out of his optics.
"We need to try to contact Ratchet." Knock Out told the girls and Pixel. "Starscream is going to die if he doesn't get medical attention ASAP."
"Even if we do call Ratchet he won't get here in time." DeAnn told him.
"Then what do we do?" Knock Out asked now in coolant tears.
"You have to fix him." Shayna told her guardian.
"But if my servos mess up I could end up damaging him worse then what he already is." Knock Out said and there was no missing the worry in his voice.
"What if I screw up and end up paralyzing him or worse?" Knock Out added.
"You won't your a great medic." Shayna reassured him.
"I think Ratchet could do a better job." He said sadly.
"Well Ratchet's not here right now but you are!" Yelled DeAnn. "My guardian might be dying and your the only one who can save him so I need you to stop the pitty party!" "Your a medic it's a dangerous job and stuff can always go wrong but if you don't try then nothing will go right either!"
"Starscream's counting on you and he needs you to fix him." DeAnn continued.
"Um what she said." Shayna told her guardian. "I know your afraid of messing up and hurting him but that's exactly what makes you a great medic you care about your patients."
"And I know you can do this." She reassured him. And Pixel beeped and nodded in agreement.
"Ok." Knock Out said wiping away his coolant tears and getting out his medkit to perform emergency surgery on Starscream to try to save the seeker's life.
He worked for hours trying to keep Starscream functioning and repairing the damage. At one point the seeker ended up going into shock and scared everyone.
But Knock Out jumped into action and quickly got him stable again. Making both girls breath a sigh of relief.
A few minutes later Knock Out was finished and Starscream back and wings looked as good as new. But he was still unconscious.
"Is he gonna be ok?" Asked DeAnn.
"I've done everything I can the rest is up to Starscream." Knock Out told her. Just then the seeker started to stir.
"Oh what happened?" Starscream asked as his optics slowly came back online.
"You were almost killed by Night Wolf." Knock Out explained.
"I went after him and MECH to get revenge for you and Megatron." Starscream told him.
"As much as I appreciate it screamer that was really stupid." Knock Out said to the seeker.
"I realize that now." Starscream agreed. "I just wish I would have before I nearly got myself killed."
"Yeah going for revenge almost cost you your wings." Knock Out explained. "They should fully heal but I wouldn't recommend flying until they've had time to recover."
"So does this mean your a medic again?" Asked Starscream.
"Yes it does." Knock Out told them having regained his confidence.
"Well at least one good thing came out of my near death experience." Starscream said and they all had to laugh.
Then Shayna called their attention to something she had just noticed.
"Hey guys I found a third set of footprints with Starscream's and Night Wolf's and it looks like someone was dragged off." She explained.
"Steeljaw." Knock Out said recognizing a small piece of the wolf mech's armor that had been chipped off when he hit the ground.
"We have to save him." Starscream told them. "There's no telling what Night Wolf might do to him."
"Your right." Knock Out agreed. "We better hurry."
Then they dropped Shayna and DeAnn off at the scrap yard not wanting them anywhere near Night Wolf but Pixel insisted on going with them so they brought him knowing the minicon was so small he could sneak around unnoticed which could work to their advantage.
Meanwhile Steeljaw woke up and realized he was tied down with chains and hooked to a cybertronian IV that was giving him circuit boosters.
He couldn't move or speak and could only glare at his older brother. Who was standing over him.
"Sorry I have to do this to you little brother but I have to keep you out of my way." Night Wolf told Steeljaw who could still only stair at him. And if looks could kill.
"Sorry about your friend but that seeker really had it coming." Night Wolf added. "Now I have to go stop MECH because I spied on them and found out their planning something I really can't let the go through with."
"Then after I'm done with them I'll destroy the Autobots and anyone else who dares cross me." Night Wolf finished as he left the old steel mill they were in.
Steeljaw watch him go then fell into recharge do to the circuit boosters.
To Be Continued.
Told you guys I'd get the rest of it up today.
