Thanks for the reviews and sorry for the long wait, but it's exam season.

In the Hands of the Enemy
Chapter 2: Discovery
Earth
'Well, you see...', Ironhide started, but before he could make his decision a loud clanking noise approached, which turned out to be Hotshot when he skidded round the corner, barely coming to a stop in time to save him from crashing into Optimus.
'We've had transmission from the Decepticons, Sir, concerning Kicker's whereabouts''.
'Put it up on the screen, quickly'.
The panel flickered into life and a blurry image of Demolisher appeared, who glanced behind him quickly and started talking in a quick but hushed voice,
'We have Kicker here, if you don't believe me, ask Ironhide, he saw. Come get him quickly or he might not live much longer if he keeps resisting Megatron, he doesn't like humans much anyways. Uh, I'll try to...'
'What are you doing Demolisher?' the Decepticon leaders voice floated over the intercom and the screen went black.
'Is that true, Ironhide?' and he nodded mutely in response, unable to look Optimus in the eye.
Well, at least at the minute Kicker seems to have an ally, but for how much longer, worried the Autobot leader, and how were they going to get Kicker back?
Decepticon base
The worst thing about being a prisoner was the boredom. Just sitting there with nothing to look at but the inside of his cell, only accompanied by his own thoughts. Sometimes Kicker hoped for one of the Transformers to stop by his cell, even if it was to haul him off to see Megatron if it meant he could see something other than the steel cube that had become his temporary home.
He must have been there for at least day now and he was tired, bored and hungry. His stomach growled rather loudly and he wondered when they were going to bring him something to eat. Then it struck him, Transformers don't eat, at least not food like humans do. He was in trouble, big trouble, if the Decepticons didn't get him it looked like starvation would.
Sorry for the shortness, but reviews are appreciated and ideas welcome.
Thanks for reading and hopefully it will not be such a long wait for the next chapter.
