Alright it is good to see so many reviews for this fic, you have all convinced me to keep going so I give to you this shiny new chapter.

Treat it well and don't scratch it or you will have to get me a new one, it was hard enough getting this one away from The Fallen and I wouldn't want anyone else to go through what I had to.

Enjoy ^_^

Sam watched as the large and ancient worrier advanced into the room, the dull red glow that came from sections of his body gave him the appearance of the devil himself. Sam could hear several clicks and grinding gears as the massive form came closer and closer and he was surprised that he hadn't passed out or wet himself. His mind was screaming for him to run but his body was frozen where it was. Only when one of the large feet landed right next to him did he gain the use of his body again.

Letting out a high pitched scream, which he would never admit was his, he ran under the Fallen going right between his legs and heading for the open door. Just when he was about to make it out he felt a sudden pull on his whole body, he tried running faster but found that his feet where no longer touching the ground. He watched as he was lifted higher and higher by an unseen force and soon found himself drifting back the way he had run.

The heavy sound of the air going in and out of the monster behind him had him yelling in fear. All to soon he felt the massive hand wrap around his whole body. The hand that was around him was tightened threateningly as he tried to push him self out of it.

"BE STILL BOY OR I WILL CRUSH YOU!"

The booming voice of the Fallen vibrated around the room and down to his bones. Against his will his body stopped moving, and he stayed stiff in the grasp. Appearing satisfied the Fallen started walking out of the room caring Sam with him. As his panicking mind settled a little he was able to take in his surroundings. They where in a long hallway made of metal that looked like it had been put together with parts from several different ships. As they passed by a room with a couple of other Decepticons Sam caught a small glimpse at the far wall.

Written in fading white letters where the words; U.S.S TOPEKA. The name he realized was that of the battle ship that sank when all the Decepticons came to Earth.

'They made this place from the parts of all the destroyed ships.' Sam thought to himself.

He was sure though that there hadn't been that many that had gone down, so he figured that they must have destroyed a couple of more ships since then in order to build this place. His attention was draw back to where he was when he heard the sounds of another large metal door opening. He looked around the new room and saw that it was full of parts from other Decepticons. The sound of banging caught his attention and he saw another Decepticon walking in from a side room.

His body was a crimson color and he was holding a particularly large part. When he saw the Fallen he instantly dropped what he was holding and bowed down onto one knee.

"Mighty Fallen, to what do I owe this great honer?" He asked.

The Fallen walked over to a large table set in the middle of the room. Bringing the hand that was holding Sam to hover a few feet above the surface he opened his hand so that he fell out onto the table. Sam landed with a dull 'thud' and he instantly started rubbing his back to try and ease the pain from the fall.

Sam watched the dark red 'Con get up from his bent down position and walk over to look at him. Sam got nervous as the 'Con looked over him he was sure that whatever was going on wouldn't be good.

"This is what you wanted it for?" The red bot asked.

The Fallen nodded his head his gaze firmly on the other.

"Yes of course, right away." He said cowering under the heated gaze."SCALPEL!"

The bellowed name rang in the room and soon Sam heard the gentle sound of metal striking against metal. He looked around for the source of the new sound and started scrambling to the edge of the table when he saw the demented little doctor crawling over the other edge. He knew instantly that this was the same little 'Con that had put the slimy worm thing into his mouth and then tried to cut off the top of his head.

"Nonononono..." He mumbled quickly. "Stay back!"

He was forced to stop when his hands started going over empty air, he looked behind him to see that he had gotten to the end of the table. There was no place left for him to go but down and he wondered if the fall would kill him. The choice of jumping or not was taken away as the same unseen force from before pulled on him and dragged him back to the center of the table.

Soon he felt the slight weight of the evil doctor crawling up his body.

"Ze boy I see." Scalpel said looking at him.

The glowing red eyes where focused on his face and Sam wanted nothing more then to throw the crab/spider like thing off him. He watched as a small compartment opened on the doctor's chest and his little arms took out a thick strip of ebony metal.

"Ze collar for ze boy!" Scalpel said holding the strip of metal out.

Sam looked at the metal and then back up at the two Decepticons towering over him.

"What... what does he mean collar?" He asked his eyes wide.

Neither one answered and while he was focused on them he temporarily forgot about the doctor on his chest. That is until he felt the surprisingly warm metal strip being pressed against his neck. There was a high pitched series of clicks and whirls and then the strip started to extend and wrap around his next. He heard it click as the two ends met in the back of his neck and then it shrank until it was pressing tight against the skin on his neck.

It wasn't cutting off his air although it felt like it was going to. It just sat there at the spot where his neck began. He brought his hands up to try and pull it off but found that it wouldn't move an inch.

"GET THIS THING OFF ME!" He yelled.

He was answered by a high pitched whine and then a painful shock running through his body. He screamed in pain and arched his back almost throwing off the doctor. When the pain passed he fell back down and was panting hard.

"What... the... hell..." He wasn't able to finish his sentence as he was once again picked up by the Fallen.

This time he didn't have the strength to protest and he hung limp in his grasp as they left the room and the two 'Cons in it.

Sam sighed as he tossed the bright orange ball against the wall of his room. He had no idea how long he had been in the hands of the Decepticons but it felt like forever. He decided to count his days from when he woke up to when he fell asleep, which if that was the case then he counted his time as being around two weeks or so. During that time he had found out the 'fun' little quirks of his metal collar.

Other then letting the Fallen shock him when ever he acted up it also let him know exactly where he was at any moment. He found that it also connected to a long thick chain that the Fallen kept with him all the time. So now he had a leash to go with it. Throwing the ball against the wall again he was greeted with the soft thud as the rubber hit the metal wall. Catching it with one had he quickly threw it back. A deep rumbling growl began to vibrate through the room.

"Do something else fleshling!"

Sam caught the ball but this time didn't throw it back. Looking off to the side his eyes fell on the large black and white figure of Barricade. The police car was scowling at him and Sam noticed his fist clenched in anger.

"Hey you don't like it find something else to watch." He said.

He heard Barricade growl again but knew that he wouldn't do anything. None of the Decepticons would do anything to him, they where all afraid of what the Fallen would do to them if they did. Sam still didn't know why but the Fallen had made it clear that he was not to be hurt in any way.

"Nothing would give me greater pleasure then to look at something else." Barricade huffed.

"Yeah well same here, I don't need a baby sitter." Sam shot back.

It was true after all, it wasn't like he could leave the room when the door was shut and even if he could there wasn't anywhere he could really go. The base was big enough that he could get lost easily and even if he could somehow find his way to an exit he had discovered one day that the whole base was submerged under water. So going out side the base was a very bad idea since he didn't know how far under they where or even what body of water they where under. How they had managed to build the base in the first place was still a mystery.

The sound of the door being opened caught his attention and Sam looked up to see who was coming in. He was greeted by the sight of the jet that had kidnapped him in the first place.

"Starscream always a pleasure to see you." Sam said sarcastically.

Like always the seeker ignored him and instead addressed Barricade.

"The Fallen requests his pets presence in the great hall." Starscream told him.

"Yeah well tell him that's too bad 'cause I don't feel like going." Sam said even though he knew he had no say in the matter.

A sudden high voltage shock ran through his body not a second after he said it, which only added to his idea that his room was bugged. As great as there hearing was he doubted that the Fallen had been able to hear his comment from all the way on the other side of the base, at least with out help. His body feel back down and he laid there panting heavily.

He could hear the two Decepticons laughing at his pain and he let out a groan that wasn't caused by the pain. He felt himself being picked up and then felt the steady back and forth of who ever was holding him as they walked. He didn't bother trying to look around, he just kept his eyes closed and hoped that the lingering pain would go away soon.

By the time it did they had already reached the main hall of the base where the Fallen had his massive chair that he laid back/sat up in. He felt himself getting ripped from the hand that was carrying him and he flew through the air. He caught a small glimpse of the out stretched hand that was calling him closer and soon felt the large fingers wrap around his body. Something pressed against the back of his neck and he heard a soft click that told him he was now attached to his leash.

'Now I know how Wheelie felt when Mikaela did this to him.' Sam though to himself.

He fought down the rising swell of emotion that came up from thinking about Mikaela and everyone he had been taken away from. It wouldn't be a good idea to have tears running down his face with the Decepticon leader so close. Once he was sure he wouldn't start crying he looked back at the large 'Con who was holding him and saw that his attention wasn't even on him.

He felt the Fallen's large thumb run down his back with just enough force behind it to make him draw in a breath. The petting continued and Sam was forced to deal with it just like he had every other day. He looked a head of him and saw that all the Decepticons where gathered in the hall, all down on one knee in respect of the Fallen.

A moment later and Sam saw Megatron walk forward to stand next to the Fallen on his right side. He started talking to all the others but none of it made seance to Sam, it was all spoken in high pitched whirls and clicks. When he was done one by one the Decepticons would walk into the middle of the room and bow before speaking, none of them looked up they kept there gaze fixed on the ground.

Sam had seen this done many time during his stay there, he assumed that they where giving reports to the Fallen and Megatron. By the way the Fallen's grip tightened and his thumb pressed harder into him he was happy to know that he was getting bad news. Bad news while painful for him was good because it showed that the Decepticons where not winning like they wanted to.

After all the gathered Decepticons had given there reports they where ordered out by Megatron who turned to look at the Fallen when the room was empty. The two continued to talk completely ignoring him or at least that's what Sam thought. He missed the sideways looks that Megatron was giving him when he thought the Fallen wasn't looking.

"Leave my apprentice you have work to do." The fallen said suddenly speaking in English.

"Yes my master." Megatron replied bowing.

He left the room which left Sam alone with the Fallen. They staid in silence the only sounds being the clicking and whirling of the mechanical body that was under him. Soon Sam was no longer able to stand the silence, he had to end it even if it meant he would get shocked again.

"What am I doing here? Why haven't you killed me yet?" He asked firmly.

The thumb stroking his back stopped and a chuckle began to fill the room. It was ruff and sounded weathered with extreme age, even though he wasn't looking at him Sam could tell the Fallen's eyes where right on him.

"You are brave to speak to me in such a way." He said.

Feeling the hand he was in move Sam found himself turned around so he was looking straight into the Fallen's face.

"Do you wish to die boy?" He asked.

"No, but I don't want to stay here either." Sam told him.

Another chuckle came from the Fallen that sent vibrations through his body.

"Pets do not get to decide where they stay, they do as there master commands." He was told.

"I AM NO ONES PET!" Sam yelled. "AND YOU ARE NOT MY MASTER!"

"I beg to differ, you belong to me now and nothing will ever change that." The Fallen told him. "Soon you will see things my way and you will forget about the miserable Autobots and that retched Prime."

Sam doubted his words, he would never see things the way the Fallen did. He was sure that the Autobots where working around the clock to try and find him. He just hoped that they found him soon.

I know that there wasn't too much in this chapter but please be patient more will come. I just need to set up the base for the story and all that fun stuff.

I hope that you all liked it and I look forward to reading your reviews.

Thanks for stopping by.
