Chapter One-

FielRak and I traveled for most of the day, until we found a large cave. We decided to use it as our temporary home until further notice.

Right now, I was out gathering supplies when I heard the sound of Cybertronian weapon fire and the sound of FielRak's scream. My head snapped to the sound and I quickly ran to our home. FielRak was on the ground, Energon leaking from a bullet wound on his side.

"FielRak!" I yelled and ran toward him.

Before I could get halfway, a strong servo grabbed my wings in an iron grip and twisted. I screamed, pain searing through me as errors flashed my HUD. I twisted trying to get my wing out of their grip as well as ease the pain.

"You're a long way from home Decepticon"

I froze at the sound of Silas's voice and turned my helm. A giant robot, manmade, held tightly onto my wing while MECH soldiers with guns surrounded the place and a large tractor with a tarp was behind all of them. My optics narrowed and I instantly knew what that tarp was for.

I glanced at FielRak, he would leak out at this rate so he wouldn't be taken, at least I hope he won't. I shifted through my coding until I found the one that sends out signals. I activated the Distress Signal.

"Take her down"

The robot twisted my wing until it was bent and let go, stepping back. I was gasping, my servo grazing my wing and I winced in pain. The sound of electricity caused me to look up, only for shocks of electric bullets to overload my circuitry. My vents seized and I collapsed. My optics flickering before powering off.

I coughed as I awoken. My cooling fan was on high and I couldn't feel my body. My optics glanced around; the place looked similar to where Breakdown was kept but darker.

"Ah, I was wondering when you would wake"

I directed my optics to the raised platform when some MECH soldiers and Silas were.

"Let me go Human" I snarled, "and I promise to make your death swift"

Silas threw his head back and laughed, "you can't even move, how, pray tell, are you going to kill me?"

"I'll find a way Fleshbag" I growled.

Silas smirked, "I like your spirit 'Con. It makes it much more fun to take it away"

I glared, my optics burned for a split second and everything disappeared.

I was suddenly crouched in a tree, there was a large fire engulfing and spreading. My vents came out raspy and quick, as if I was just running.

I lifted my servo to my optic level and my breathing stopped. Blood stained the once black metal.

"Beautiful, isn't it?"

I jumped and turned my helm to the left. A dark shadow sat on the branch above me.

"No" I snapped, returning my head to the scene, "...well... maybe a little"

"It's what we can do, together. If you let me in"

I shuttered my optics but shook my helm, "no, it's not right"

The figure threw her head back and laughed, it was dark and had no emotions.

"It's what you're born to do. Or did you forget that?" she grinned, showing fangs.

"I didn't forget" I growled as my eyes flashed, "I just..."

"Don't want it" a mechling, white and red-orange armour, finished.

A younger me nodded, coolent tears sliding down her face.

"Then don't"

My helms snapped up to look at him, shock clear on my faceplates.

"It's your life, right?"

I gasped and shuddered, snapping back to reality.

"A memory flux?" the femme purred, amusement in her black optics, "come now, you don't believe him, do you? He's a Medic, you're a Spawn of-"

"Don't" I stood up and leapt down from the tree before walking toward the sound of a Groundbridge.

The dark shadow growled before disappearing.
