Break Up
"Maybe we should stop seein' each other for a while" - Those were the last words he said before walking out of their meeting place and their relationship.
That had been a few hours ago, judging by his chronometer. He'd been standing on the same spot ever since he watched his better half walk away from him. It didn't matter how hard he thought about it; he couldn't find a clue as to why that happened. What had he done to make the other one give up after all this time?
He analyzed his memory banks again for answers and was again disappointed. There had been no change in his behavior. There had been no stray thought or word out of the ordinary. If there was something strange going on, it was related to the war and not them. Why leaving? He realized there was no actual answer for that question. At least not now; and he should go back to the base now that there was nothing here for him.
How exactly did he made his way back, he didn't remembered. He'd been lucky to arrive without being attacked. He walked slowly to his quarters and closed the door behind him. As soon as it closed, the robot just fell to the floor. He rested his back on the closed door and the light of his visor dimmed with sadness. He would've cried, but he wasn't created nor programmed to do so.
Five days later, Soundwave was still in the same place. His Cassetticons had not dared to be near him while he was online, and he'd not fallen into recharge for all this time. The small robots were worried, but there was nothing they could do without activating his anger.
Meanwhile, inside the Ark, the saboteur was busy trying to hack into Blaster's room. He was sure Prime had stopped the investigation after having the complete story, but Blaster was another matter. The Autobot's Cassette Player had been stalking him and the saboteur had decided it was enough. He would never know what hit him. He just hoped Soundwave could forgive him for leaving without any explanation.
