Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers
Yay for Transformers, That's what I say!
"See? Wasn't that fun?" Zigma laid down on Megatron's berth, her optics going between offline and online. Megatron had planned this all along, and trapped her.
"What was so fun about me being strapped to this berth by Energon cuffs?" Megatron turned onto his side and placed his arm over Zigma's abdomen, pulling her closer to him.
"Well,We didn't spark-merge. So Your powers will still work." He laid his head into the crook of her neck, falling into a deep recharge.
'You make me sick.' She thought to herself. And no, she wasn't talking about Megatron. She was talking about herself.
'Letting him take advantage of you like that. You could have fought him off, yell out a lie. Told him that you felt your power draining. But you didn't, you laid in this berth and yelled out his name in pain, like he wanted.'
Being careful not to wake him up, she gently lifted his arm off her abdomen. Once she was safely off the berth, she picked up the veils and positioned them back on her.
During the process, she had a vision. So suddenly, she didn't touch anybody or anything. So what was it?
Starscream was in the vision, and so was she. She saw him running for his life, towards her. His arms had reached for her body and covered her before he was struck down. By Megatron himself.
'No no no, that's not gonna happen. I won't let it. I'll keep him safe, no matter what.' She quickly left the room and headed for hers, running into Sideways.
"Geez, you think you yelled out loud enough? You slut."
"What?"
"You heard me." Sideways stepped closer to her once more, letting his optics roam her simple yet delicately designed body. "I bet if you could, you'd sleep with every single mech here."
"I'm not that kind of femme." She marched right past him, covering herself with her arms. Whenever he looked at her, she felt as he was looking right into her spark. So covering herself was the only way for her to feel safe from him.
"Then what kind of femme are you? Are you a work-bot? a constructicon? A seeker? Or were you just a broken bot that they threw out because you didn't functin right?"
"I've heard enough from you." This time instead of walking, she ran. Ran for her life.
Once she was safely in her room, she broke down crying. She was officially broken by those men. Megatron had taken her innocence that she wanted so badly to save for a certain mech. And now Sideways is breaking her down mentally
'I wasn't broken. Primus made me the way I am. He gave me this power.' She looked at her hands. 'Didn't he? Didn't he design me this way for a reason?' She then touched her head with her hand. 'Or am I really….a mistake?'
"Deal Starscream. Under one condition. When this war is finished and Zigma is free, you have to turn yourself into the Autobots as prisoner." Was Starscream really going to risk freedom for a femme he barely talks to.
"And if I don't?" This question caught Optimus off-guard. He was expecting a quick answer like 'yes, of course' or 'sure'; but 'and if I don't.' wasn't one of the choices. He didn't know how to reply to this.
"You don't know what to say to me, do you Prime?" Hot Shot and Red Alert clutched their teeth and growled at Starscream. Both surprised that he tricked their leader.
"Sir, call off the deal." Red Alert advised Optimus.
"I knew we couldn't trust a Decepticon. We're not going to help, are we sir?"
"Yes we are." Optimus said out.
"WHAT?!"
"We go by the code of Autobots: We don't leave those who are innocent in danger's way. No matter what. So even if Starscream says no, we'll still find a way to save that femme." Starscream smiled to them as he opened the door to the cell.
"Good response, Prime. That was a test to see if you would still save her, even if I suddenly turned on you. I now know that I am trusting the right group." Optimus woke up all of the other mechs who were laying in sleep.
"All right Autobots. I need only Hot Shot and Red Alert to stay. The rest of you can head back to base and wait for further instructions."
"Sir yes sir." They whispered, being careful to not let the other Decepticons know that they were free.
"Cyclonus, Demolisher, I want you two to watch over Zigma. She claims that she needs to go outside and get some air." Megatron sat upon his throne, looking over the two soldiers that stood before him.
"Yes sir Megatron." They both bowed before him, leaving him once they saw Zigma walk in.
"Zigma, there you are. Cyclonus and Demolisher are going to accompany you while you go outside."
"What? Why?" She complained to him.
"Because I said so. Now get going before I change my mind." He roared out, making the three transformers run out of the room.
Demolisher walked in the front, Zigma walked in the middle, and Cyclonus was in the back: that was the order she had to walk in.
She could feel Cyclonus's optics burning into her back, and she heard his chuckling when ever he liked something he saw. Which pretty much meant he wouldn't stop laughing.
Demolisher stood to her side, allowing her to see all of outside. This outside was behind the Decepticon base, free of all battles and harm. So it looked very beautiful.
"Which setting would you like?" She heard one of the two ask her. Oh yeah, the outside was also in a virtual dome that could let you see anything.
So she had to think, what would she want to see? She suddenly remembered. While she was Alexis on earth, she would go to a field that was isolated from everything. The field was so green and it was covered in billions of flowers.
"Can you get a garden full of flowers?" She asked, not looking up.
"Flowers?" Cyclonus laughed. "Why would you want flowers?"
"Don't fight with her." Demolisher quickly typed in some kind of code. The virtual dome started to change to the setting she wanted.
Her optics lite up when the change was done. The top of the dome was the clear blue sky that was similar to the one on earth. The floor looked just like grass and the flowers…so many different kinds.

"She's outside in the virtual dome. It's on the bottom lever, just outside of the throne room where Megatron is." Starscream explained the lay-out of the base.
"Ok, so how can we get there without getting caught?"
"It won't be that simple. One of us is going to have to be a distraction/diversion."
"What do you want me to do? Dress in drag and do the hula?" (A.N. I couldn't resist putting that. Courtesy of the Lion King. Which I do not own either)
"What's the hula?" Starscream asked the apparantly hyper Hot Shot. "And what's drag?"
"Never mind with that." Red Alert cut in. Right now, they were all hiding in Starscream's room. Discussing the plan. "What's the plan, Starscream?"
"Optimus, any imputs?" Optimus had his head hitting the wall, making a very noticeable dent.
"Wait wait wait…" He pulled his head away. "I'm getting something."
"What?" Red Alert, Hot Shot, and Starscream asked in unison.
"A headache." Optimus went back to hitting his head.
"Oh boy, your leader has lost it." Suddenly, the alarm siren went off loudly. This making Optimus's headache get worse. The com-link went on.
"ATTENTION, ATTENTION, THE AUTOBOTS HAVE ESCAPED. SECURE THE BASE, NOW!" Megatron's voice roared out.
"Megatron found out that you guys are gone. Not good." Optimus hands suddenly grabbed onto Starscream and lead him to the window.
"You go get Zigma, me and the Autobots will take care of the others. Meet us at Antartica on Earth." With all of his power, Optimus threw Starscream out the window, towards the virtual dome.
---
"Zigma, stay in here." Demolisher ran out of the dome.
"Laters, Cutie." Cyclonus soon followed him, locking the dome when he was fully out. Zigma didn't get a chance to respond to anything, she was soon by herself.
"What?" She asked herself. "Ooook." She went back to looking down at the flowers, admiring their beauty.
"I feel bad for you guys on earth. Those humans only appreciate your beauty for just a few seconds, they forget about you." She gently pulled one out, forgetting that it was all just a hologram.
When she bent down to look closer to the flower, there was a crash through the dome.
"What the…" Starscream crashed onto the floor, almost injuring one of his wings in the process.
"Ow, he could have told me that he was going to throw me out the window. That hurt!"
"Starscream, what are you doing here?" She went over to check up on Starscream. "What happened? I heard the siren, the Autobots escaped. Come on." She started pulling on his arm. "We got to catch them."
Starscream stood up. "I freed them." He informed her.
"What? Why? I went through all of that trouble to make sure Megatron won and you let them go?"
"Actions now, Questions later." Starscream pushed Zigma's buttons in the order to turn her into the human, Alexis.
"Why did you…." She didn't finish her question. He had picked her up in to his hand and put her in the cockpit on his chest.
"Strap up. TRANSFORM!" Starscream transformed into his jet form and flew full blast at the top of the dome. It broke on contact.
"Where are we going?" She asked.
"Earth."
Aw, Starscream saved Zigma. And Optimus still has a headache. Tune in next time for the next chapter of 'Zigma, the psychic Decepticon'. Please leave a review on your way out. lol
