Arcee laid in the left corner of the room naked and covered in fluids. Quivering as she laid exposed for anyone who'd entered the roundish room. She had cried for far to long, now she found herself unable too. How long had it been since their capture?. She lost track along with the tiny bits of innocence she had left. She has been moved around two detention blocks, she knew she was the closest deck to Megatron's quarters. The thought of being so close sent a shiver as she leaned against the wall. Her mind couldn't be helped into thinking about John, was he even alive?. She simply didn't know at all. He probably blamed himself for his poor timing and most likely took that self hate to the grave if he didn't make it. She had long realized if they had gone separate ways One of them would've made it instead of the two of them ending up in the same pot. Please be alive John, please escape. She thought trying to keep her hope alive. A hope she was desperately losing with each day. How long hasit been a week? It was it 2 weeks?. She pondered on as the door to the cell opened. In stepped a drone with an energon cubein hand. Closingdoor behind him he lowered the cube and slid it to her. She looked down at with a flat expressionand looked back to the drone.

"John's alive, The experiment was a resounding success" He said as she felt a wave of relief come overher in that department. "He's been trained by Megatron himself, to free you and escape" He add as the con slid away his face mask.

"Your trying to fool me" She said in disbelief as he shook his head.

"The torture session he went though was a test, Megatron wants a proper successor and the thinks John is that man. I want out and our agenda a-line. Tomorrow at 5 when Bucket head is gone will Spring out. Megatron still need to make John obedient twice on the cell Block three decks away just a simple transfer" The con explained the facts in a more straight way. "I've got the damn access codes to The ground bridge and we'll be far away in under 10 minutes" He went on as he watched her eat. "He also gave me a message, 'Arcee I realized what he's done to you. He used it in training to spark my anger towards him. I hope you're holding together, I've tried to end his life in the training sessions but I am not strong enough to go through with it. See you at 5'" The con ended as arcee looked at him. "You'll see" He said as he rose to his feet. "The names STV-1138, your medic had a at me with a blow torch. Luckily prime stopped him and let me flee" He said as he had put that long behind him.

He left quickly as he closed the door behind him she finished consuming the blue block. We'll see if he's telling the truth. She mused as she adjusted her position. The rooms tense nature began wearing down as she sat along in the darkness. Grabbing her armor off the ground she clapped them back into place with ease.

John blocked Megatron's sword with blinding precision before landing a right elbow into the warlords face making him stager backwards from the intense hit. Megatron back stepped as he quickly block a blade from pricing his right arm. He had little time to admire the child's tenacity and strength as he kicked the newly made man back. John did a back flip using the momentum to get away from Megatron. Megatron was watching as the boy landed on his peds and drew his blaster. Firing 3 shots Megatron blocked each one with his sword. Lowering it he felt a clenched fist and enough force to level a building connecting to his jaw. He was knocked back right into the wall making a loud screeching noise as he slid down it to the floor. He was shocked as the hit had knocked him to the ground. What in the pits of Kaon!. He thought as he saw energon leaking from his own mouth. Springing to his peds Megatron sidestepping avoiding another blade. Slamming his fist into the child's gut John gave and collapsed. Groaning out in pain John reeled from the hit to the gut.

"I give" He said and Megatron only chuckle and withdrew his blade.

"Know your limits boy, then you will become a force to be reckoned with" Megatron told him as John brought himself back up.

"Understood" John said flatly as he saw the energon he spilled from the mighty Megatron.

No not yet, Arcee comes first. He told himself as he was escorted from the room by drones. Megatron watched the former human leave as he wiped away the energon from his mouth. He just knew starscream would have a Field day with it and tapped the wall comm.

"Medic bay" He said as it switched lines in under a second to Knockout's work area. "Meet me in the sparing room and not a word to starscream" He quickly cut the connection and waited.

John was as tall as one of the drones but had a pure sliver paint job and no alt mode yet. He was 20 feet or tall and walked with his dignity intact. His fist stained with energon by Megatron gave him a sense of hope as knockout passed them by. He only smiled more. Must have knocked a tooth out. He mused to himself as he mildly chuckled at the idea. 2 and a half weeks of planing and with the help of a drone who Simply wanted out he was gonna pull a brilliant stunt that might even fry a few processor's on the way. A smile formed he inwardly chuckled. He could just hear the great escape theme playing in his head.

Knockout had to resist laughing as Megatron stood there in a morbid shock. He was surprised that the boy had knocked him down in a way, he hadn't felt it since his early years as a gladiator.

"He's a good candidate, but manipulating will take time and I have all of it I need" He said as he regretted having Airachnid kill the father.

"That's good, so when do we begin?" Knockout asked.

"After my return tomorrow, then we'll break him" Megatron replied with a cold tone enough to make Knockout shiver.
