So no flaming please! And thanks to Foxbear, she is such a loyal reader! And I loved her idea, I knew thought of it...so a million cookies to her too!

Autobot base, 3rd POV

Arcee paced angrily.

When Ms. Darby had told her that Jack was missing, she'd searched the town of Jasper from top to bottom, and found nothing.

Now she was pacing in the 'bot base while everyone hovered close to the main computer that Ratchet was using to search for Jack's life signals. Nothing came up to show he was alive.

But none came up to show he was dead.

The Nemisis, Jack's POV

After the collar had been put on, I'd been allowed to freely roam the ship.

No doubt the collar would keep me in my place.

I'd been sticking close to the walls, avoiding any and all 'cons. I was really just trying to get as far away from Megatron as possible, I now hated him more than anything for getting a collar put on me, like I was some pet.

Maybe that was why I was here.

Though I didn't plan on 'rolling over' for anyone.

Now and then, I'd peak into various rooms, or stop and sit, leaning on a wall to watch the seekers. It was actually interesting to watch the seekers going about their every day buisness, I even found a room where I could look out a window and watch seekers doing flying practice.

"Very interesting, isn't it Jack?"

I nearly screamed, spining around quickly to see,

"Arachnid." I muttered, feeling my insides twist.

She laughed, her head thrown back.

"Now Jack, don't tell me you're surprised to see me, this is the Nemisis, of course."

I glared at her, going to leave the room. But she placed a hand on my chest, stoping me, before she moved slowly forward, lightly pushing and making me back up. The door hissed shut behind her, and I felt panic claw at my heart.

"I was wondering when I would see you after our last encounter."

My back came into contact with the wall.

I was cornered.

"W-what are you doing." I asked, cursing at myself when I stuttered.

She smirked, "You're very intriguing Jack, you arn't like other humans."

"I-I'm not sure if I should be offended or not." I muttered, and she laughed.

"Oh, it was a compliment." She assured.

I took a sharp in take of breath as her hand suddenly moved lower to lightly touch my abdominin.

"Stop." I whimpered as her hand slowly went under my shirt as she continued her caress.

"Now Jack, what fun would that be?" She asked, voice sultry.

Her cold, metal hand moved up to my chest, and I began to panic. I tried to push her hand off, but she used her other hand to trap both of mine. Her glossa slipped out to lick my jaw.

"S-stop it...!"

Her hand moved down to trace along my pant line...

The door suddenly opened.

There was a loud growl of rage, and Arachnid was thrown off me. She collided with the wall crying out in pain as she crumpled to the flor. I looked up, still panting.

"Megatron..."

The 'con leader only spared a glance at me before advancing on the femme on the floor. I closed my eyes as the sound of metal being twisted and screaming echoed in the room.

"If you DARE ever touch him again, I will RIP OUT YOUR SPARK!" Megatron yelled.

I sat on my heels, covering my ears and eyes closed, I prayed the sounds would stop soon.

I nearly screamed when a large metal hand lifted me, but when I looked up, I realized it was Megatron. I glanced at Arachnid and winced, she was most definately in pain.

"Are you alright boy?" I looked up in surprise at how gentle the 'con leaders voice was. I slowly nodded.

And I then noticed I was shaking uncontrolibly.

Megatron let me sit in his palm, finger slightly curled almost as though to protect me.

When he stopped, we were back in his quarters. he softly placed me on the berth before leaving the room for a moment, only to return with food for me.

He placed it down in front of me, then watched me.

I blinked.

Then I looked down at the food, it was simple, just a bowl of soup and some water. I glanced up at Megatron, who still watched me. I then slowly picked up the bowl, puting it to my lips and taking a small gulp of it. It was warm and soothing, comforting after the events with Arachnid.

I shyly looked up at Megatron again.

"Thank you."

He looked a bit surprised, but then nodded before going around the room, looking over some datapads while I continued to eat. I watched him though as I did, finding the sight of his interest in a certain datapad slightly funny.

After I finished, I set the bowl down on the tray, and continued to watch him, laughing when a confused look crossed his face. When I laughed, he looked over at me, metal brow furrowed. He came forward and took the tray, placing it on one of the small tables before sitting on the berth, begining to study the datapad in his hand again.

I slowly stood, then went over to try and see if I could look at the datapad. I stood on tip-toe, craning my neck only to catch a small glimpse of strange runes. Probably Cybertronian.

Megatron noticed my attempts to see the words, and I yelped as I was suddenly lifted up.

Megatron held his hand flat so I was sitting, legs dangling. I cold now clearly see the datapad. I looked up at Megatron, who was looking down at me.

"Did the Autobots teach you how to read Cybertronian?" He asked. I shook my head slowly.

He gave a snort of laughter, and I glared at him.

"Then why are you trying to see this?" He asked, lifting the datapad.

I looked away, scowling.

"I can't help it if I'm a little curious." I muttered as I stared at the datapad again.

"I still don't see why I'm even here." I added, touching the collar around my neck. The black metal was slightly cold, but the tiny vibration from the gears was strangely comforting.

Megatron chuckled.

"Because you are different from other humans, I wish to figure out why I am not disgusted by you."

I gave him a look.

"Oh thanks allot for calling my whole race disgusting." I said sarcasticly as I looked over the runes on the datapad.

After a few minutes of silence, Megatron suddenly pointed at the first rune on the datapad.

"This one means 'Maintenance'."

He then moved to the next rune.

"'Report'"

He then ran the claw under two runes "'Of the Nemisis.'"

I tilted my head to one side, frowning in confusion. He was trying to teach me Cybertronian?

"When there is a small rune, it is a short word that conects the subjects. These two, which are the 'of the Nemisis', are 'of' and 'the'." He explained.

I hesitantly nodded, looking down at the datapad as he continued the 'lesson'.

Maybe Megatron really wouldn't hurt me.

Maybe this wouldn't be so hard to handle.

At least until the guys came to save me.

I still didn't like the collar.

I decided to add a little comforting part to the end, no flames plz! Luv u guys!
