Sorry for the delay, ROTC is more involed than I thought it would be. However this will be finished...one way or another!
After Bumblebee's spark attack seeing Sari resting peacefully on Starscream's shoulder and Prowl gladly seeing that Starscream has shown that he will not hurt her, Prowl immediately started to think of how he was to show this to Prime and Ratchet without them blowing him away. Sure seeing Sari being on Starscream's shoulder without threaten or holding her was a big help but he wanted insurance.
"So Starscream, now that you're on our side, I think it is important that I show you what being an Autobot is all about." Sari said now standing on his shoulder looking at his head.
Starscream turned toward the young girl gave a dry chuckle and said "I think we need to worry about other things right now." In other words he just really didn't even want to think about that right now. That is one thing he wasn't looking forward to.
Bumblebee was leaning on the wall facing Starscream's side with an untrusting glare in-which Starscream just returned with a glare. After a about twenty seconds of this Bumblebee turned away from him and said "So...Prowl, any idea how we are going to tell boss bot about letting Starscream out of his prison."
Starscream glowed and really wanted to strangle the young bot. But Sari tapped on his shoulder with he could was a way in telling him to calm down. After so Sari glared at Bumblebee and mouthed 'You're not helping'. This made Bumblebee shut up and stopped with the face.
Starscream still couldn't believe this. He reduced himself to becoming an Autobot and at the same time he was taking orders from this ninja bot and Sari, and soon he's going to have to start taking orders from Prime and everyone else. He wondered if he was really going to be able to go through with this without killing anybody. He just let out a sigh of frustration to calm down and Sari just patted him on the shoulder to calm him. This did comfort him still made him wonder why he was attached to her.
Prowl was unaware of all this however because he was trying to come up with some way to show the others. He rubbed his chin walking away from the others and was still thinking and then finally stopped. He then turned back to them and said "I have an idea."
The three of them looked up at him showing that they had his attention. Seeing this Prowl continued "Them seeing Starscream all of them will take immediate action and attack, even with Sari with you." He said looking to Starscream but then turned away and started to walk to the side and continued "What we need to do is tell and then show them that you have agreed to join us."
"Do you think that will work?" Sari asked.
"That's the best way for us to introduce this to Prime." Prowl said turning to Bumblebee.
Bumblebee didn't show any sign of acknowledgement however. Prowl was able to tell that he was angry or uncomfortable with the current situation. He was just leaning on the wall facing the other way from them and had a grim expression on his face plate. Prowl couldn't tell if he was angry about Starscream being out or the situation in general but he didn't dwell on it for much longer.
"Can't we get this over with?! It's bad enough that I have to worry about the others coming in and-" Starscream was cut off.
"Starscream's escaped!" a loud tone came. The four of them turned toward the hallway to the main room of the 'base'. But as soon as Starscream turned, the large green wreaking ball of Bulkhead's came toward him and hit him hard in the cockpit area of his body, crushing it completely. Sari flew off of Starscream's shoulder from the impact and was unable to get control in the air. But at that time Bumblebee jumped over the wreaking ball's wire and caught her in the air and landed safely on the other side. Bulkhead retracted his wreaking ball and Prime and Ratchet came to his side.
"What's going on?!" Optimus Prime yelled with his axe ready.
Prowl went in front of the damaged Starscream and yelled "Stand down! I released him! Do not attack!"
"Kid, have you fried your circuit board?!" Ratchet yelled keeping his weapons ready.
"Listen, I have made a deal with him. Prime, I believe that if we take him in and teach him our Autobot ways with the help of Sari, we can learn to trust him and earn his trust."
Ratchet lowered his weapons and Bulkhead just listened with his wreaking ball turning back to his hand but Prime still kept his weapon raised and said "Prowl, he's Decepticon! I don't know what you were thinking disregarding my orders!"
As Prowl was trying to defend Starscream verbally to Prime, Sari and Bumblebee went to Starscream who was damaged on the floor. His chest was damaged and cockpit was completely shattered. His optics were still lit but he wasn't saying anything.
Sari was worried over Starscream again. She couldn't tell if he was worse compared to their time in the cave but regardless he was severely damaged from a direct fully sprung wreaking ball in the chest. Even Bumblebee was starting to see this was wrong. Seeing him just heavily damaged like that was painfully to say the least.
Bumblebee let go of Sari placed him on his head so she could repair him. Starscream was barely functioning as far as she could see. She rest on his shoulder and since his head turned. After Sari was able to be on top she went the top of his forehead to place her key. She was about to place it but when she opened the data port she saw the bright blue shard. There it was the All Spark fragment that was keeping him functioning. Despite the beauty of the glow, that's not what caught her attention...it was what happened. The fragment itself turned into the data port!
"Whoa...that's...odd." Bumblebee said in awe.
Sari gasped at this. She didn't know if she should use it or not. She turned to Bumblebee to see what she should do. He shrugged not sure what would happen. Prowl was still auguring with Prime and the others so they were no help. But if she didn't Starscream would just suffer since the fragment was would keep him function. Sari gulped doing what she hoped was right and slowly she placed her key and turned it inside the fragment's data port.
"AARRAHHHH!" Starscream screamed as he awoke from being status lock. He awoke getting up grabbing his head from the immense pain from the key. Sari was unable to hold on to his should but Bumblebee got her off and back away from the ex-Decepticon. Prowl and the other Autobots backed away.
Starscream's forehead was glowing bright blue and was standing up trying to relieve the pain coming from it. Just then all as he was trying to regain control all the Autobots including Sari saw something happening in his chest. All of them saw the yellow and shine core of his spark returning. After it shined within his chest for all the Autobots to see and be in awe, the shine within in the key died away as it then started to do its normal repairs on his body. After it was all over, Starscream stood still in the hallway. Just as all the repairs on him where finished he blacked out and fell face down on the floor in the hallway.
Yeah, this is also another reason this was delayed. I didn't know if I wanted this in here. I really don't like the idea of Starscream being...well...a zombie. So I came up with this for him so be 'resurrected' in a sense. I didn't now if I wanted to do this now or later on but I just said "Let's get this out of the way". So that's it. Next chapter will hopefully come sooner than this!
