You can just guess what happens in this chapter.
Chapter 13 Bringing Home A Bumblebee
Megatron walked out of his quarters with Starscream at his side. He walked by the Decepticons soldiers that were awaiting their orders. He stood at the exit to the base and transformed.
"Recover that Allspark fragment." He ordered before taking to the sky.
Starscream, Thundercracker, and Skywarp transformed quickly and took to the skies. They flew close to one another before forming a triangle behind Megatron. Blackarachnia grumbled to herself as she watched the others take off, Blitzwing going as far as blasting his afterburners in her face.
"Fine, don't worry about me, I'll just run after you. Stupid mechs." She growled.
Megatron blasted across the skies, leaving a large vapor trail behind him as his rotors sliced through the clouds. His scanners told him that the Allspark fragment was located somewhere in downtown Detroit, so he headed there as fast as he could to beat the Autobots to the shard.
"Lord Megatron." Starscream said, pulling his trine up beside him.
"Yes Starscream?" Megatron replied as he started circling above a warehouse that was giving off the Allspark signature.
"Just reporting in." Starscream replied.
Megatron chuckled to himself. "Let's see what's inside this storing vicinity." He stated as he fired at the building.
Starscream and his trine transformed and started firing at the building as well. They all sank slowly towards the ground as an Autobot energy signature appeared on their internal radars. The left wall of the building crumbled and Megatron transformed and landed on the ground as a small, yellow and black Autobot went tearing out of the building.
"I don't think so." Megatron sneered as he shot the little Autobot in the back. Starscream had the yellow Autobot pinned before a pin could drop.
Megatron smiled as the little yellow Autobot started shouting as Starscream picked him up by his scruff bar. "Hey! Put me down! I'm afraid of heights!"
"Maybe that's why you're so short!" Skywarp snarled while Thundercracker laughed.
"Who are you calling short!?" Bumblebee shouted.
"You."
"Why I otta!"
"Silence Autobot." Megatron growled as he walked forward. "I believe you have something of mine."
"Give it to us and we might spare your insignificant life." Starscream added with a cold chuckle.
Bumblebee laughed. "Yah, like I'm going to just...OK YOU CAN HAVE IT!" He squealed as Megatron shoved his charging fusion cannon in his face. He held out the Allspark fragment and Megatron quickly grabbed it and stored it in his subspace.
"Deal with him as you see fit, Starscream." He stated as he stepped back.
"Can I keep him, Megatron?" Starscream laughed.
Megatron laughed. "As a pet?" He asked. When Starscream nodded, he chuckled. "Go right ahead, but you're looking after him."
"Thank you. Do we have a cell for him?" Starscream asked.
"I'm sure there's one." Megatron replied. "Shockwave." He growled over the com-link. "Return the base and prepare a holding cell. We have captured an Autobot and the fragment."
"Your friends will never find you." Starscream taunted as he held Bumblebee securely to his chest.
"They will!" Bumblebee squeaked fearfully. "Just you wait! They'll come and kick your afts back to Cybertron!"
"Well, that will save us a journey." Skywarp laughed.
Starscream sat on the ground, pinning Bumblebee down with one leg. He opened the back panel on his brain and removed a small micro chip. He quickly discarded it. "Now they won't be able to track you." He taunted as he grinned down at the small Autobot.
Bumblebee moaned in pain. "Leave me alone!" He shouted fearfully.
"The holding cell is ready, my Lord." Shockwave stated evenly over the com-link.
"Good, we will be there momentarily." Megatron replied.
"How are we going to carry him?" Starscream asked as he stood up.
Megatron frowned. "You can fly while in robot mode, correct?" He asked.
"NO! There is no way that I'm flying anywhere!" Bumblebee shouted.
Starscream opened Bumblebee's brain panel and switched off his optics, earning a yelp from the smaller mech. "There, now you won't see anything or know how to tell your friends where our base is." He sneered. "And you will fly if Megatron wills it!"
Bumblebee whimpered. "But...I'm not a Seeker! My feet are meant to stay on the ground!" He squeaked in fear.
"Worse than a sparkling." Megatron commented as he transformed. Wait. He thought. Could I possibly use the Allspark to turn this Autobot into a sparkling? I'll run it by Starscream first when we get back to the base.
"Silence Groundling!" Starscream snarled as he took to the air.
Bumblebee whimpered fearfully. He was slightly happy that Starscream had offlined his optics, but he didn't like that he had easy access to his systems. He could do anything to him and he wouldn't be able to stop him. It sent terrified shivers up his spinal unit. Megatron led the way back to the base, trying to come up with a name other than "Bumblebee" for a sparkling name.
"Where shall we keep him so he doesn't sabotage the base?" Starscream asked as he flew up beside him and began stroking Bumblebee's horned helm.
Megatron chuckled. "Shockwave has a holding cell prepared." He replied. "But, there is something I wish to discuss with you when we return." He added. He smiled to himself at the mental image of Starscream holding a little bundle of yellow metal and large red optics. After all, he would have to alter his protocol so that he wouldn't leave them and rejoin the Autobots.
Bumblebee grumbled. "Stop stroking me!" He snapped.
"Would you prefer this?" Starscream asked as he scraped his claws again Bumblebee's metal skull.
Bumblebee cried out in pain. "NO! NO!" He cried. "Stop!"
Megatron frowned to himself. Maybe Starscream wouldn't want him to be a sparkling. He transformed before he landed on the entrance of the base. Starscream ran his thumb over the grooves he had made in the Autobot's armor as he stood behind Megatron. Shockwave walked over to Megatron and led him to the holding bay. He directed him to the prepared cell before bowing and leaving. Bumblebee shivered slightly; he didn't like some Decepticon stroking him, especially where he was most sensitive to someone's touch, but he's put up with it if it meant he wouldn't get his CPU clawed out of his head. He felt Starscream's clawed hand inside his head again as the Seeker turned his optics back on. Bumblebee blinked several times to adjust his optics to the dim lighting before he started flailing around.
"LET ME GO!" He shouted angrily.
Megatron chuckled before he walked over to Starscream and stroked the Autobot's helm. "What would he look like as a sparkling?" He asked. When Starscream stared up at him blankly he grinned. "I was thinking about turning him into a sparkling." He replied.
"NO! I AM NOT BECOMING A SPARKLING!" Bumblebee screamed.
Starscream held Bumblebee firmly to his chest. "I don't think that's a good idea." He replied as he gave Megatron a skeptical look.
Megatron nodded. "Very well." He replied as he nodded to the holding cell. "Then put him in there." Starscream shoved Bumblebee into the holding cell before Bumblebee looked back at them and growled. Megatron snorted and turned around. "Back to the room?" He asked quietly.
Starscream put his hand on the clear wall of the holding cell before nodding. "Of course." He replied happily. Megatron chuckled as he led them back to his room.
Author's note: Duh, duh, duh, duh! Bumblebee is capture by the Decepticons! And Megatron wants to turn him into a sparkling! Wow…life sucks for you little guy. Anyways, think Megatron will actually turn him into a sparkling? Leave me a review and let me know. This topic was added to the role play when I found a truck load of cute sparkling drawings of Bumblebee on Deviantart, so kudos to those individuals who made the baby Bee so cute! Thanks again to everyone who reads this and is encouraging me to continue!
