THE LOST CHILDREN OF CYBERTRON
Chapter 51: Heart of the Beast
Starscream woke to the sounds of something dripping. Online his optics the Decepticon lord looked around at his surroundings and saw to his utter horror that he is alone.
"Rodan? Radon?" he asked and after hearing a moaning noise coming from his cockpit Starscream realized that he was still in robot mode.
There in his cockpit was Sam still unconscious.
Welcome screaming one a booming voice said in his mind.
Starscream turned around several times to find the source and all he found was nothing but techno organic walls surrounding him.
"Show yourself Unicron!" Starscream yelled in Cybertronian.
A dark chuckle could be heard from all around him.
"Do you as the new Lord High Protector of all of a dead planet plan to kill me the mighty Unmaker? You must be very foolish as to try such a deed with me," Unicron replied
"Fuck you!" Starscream yelled in English this time and once again Unicron chuckled.
"It is futile Starscream give it up there is no escape, Unicron's voice was cold as it was amused.
"Where are Radon and Rodan?" Starscream demanded
Ah the sparklings they are alive at the moment it has been a while since I feasted on sparkling resilient as they are was the reply
"You will not get away with this," Starscream said
All the he gotten in reply was a laugh.
--MEANWHILE--
"Oh my aching CPU," a groggy voice said and Rodan opened his blue optics to the world around him.
"No shit Sherlock," said a equally groggy reply.
Rodan turned his head to view his sister getting up and holding her head.
"Where are we?" she asked her brother
"I think Unicron ate us," Rodan replied
"Yeah but where is dad?" asked Radon
"I don't know but we have to find him," said Rodan as he slowly and shakily stood up.
Radon was not far behind him as she got this uneasy feeling in her circuits.
--SOMETIME LATER--
"I think we are lost," said Radon as she walked further into the darkness her ruby optics were here only light.
"No shit," said Rodan
Walking down the long corridor seemed to take forever and they are exhausted from their ordeal. Both twins began to survey their surroundings as they walked along the dark corridors. As they walked they had the constant feeling of being watched.
As they walked the darker and more foreboding it gets. The walls seemed to show a certain living gleam to them as greenish lights began to form and the twins kept moving hoping without a doubt that they would find their way to Starscream.
--STARSCREAM--
Starscream watched as his children walked further into the darkness the monitor that was created from Unicron's body made Starscream want to purge his tanks. Sam sat on the Seeker's shoulders after having been taken out from the cockpit after Starscream tested the atmosphere for suitable gasses for Sam. Sam sat but he kept his flight suit on. Thanks to some designs from Skyfire they managed to make a suit that resembles something from an anime, and now Sam is wearing a suit that resembles something out of Macross or Gundam. He thought it was coolest thing in the world it even has his name written on it.
Well it was a good thing he is wearing it because it was cold outside. He could feel it trying to get to him. As he looked at his hands and the scars that are still there from when he placed the Allspark in Megatron's spark. He was told to be quiet as Unicron appeared in corporeal form before them. He laughed as he stared at Starscream through his crimson optics.
You do not seem afraid Unicron said
"I was afraid but not anymore," Starscream growled
You should be because those you care about are about to face some dire challenges he said
--RODAN AND RADON--
The two Deceptibots had walked for what seemed like hours and true to their age they began to grumble.
"My feet hurt," Rodan cried
"Oh shut up you big sparkling my feet hurt too you know," said Radon
"I'm hungry I wanna eat," said Rodan
"Can't you think of something else other then your fuel tank?!" Radon complained back
"But I am Hungry!" Rodan complained
Radon only glared at her brother through her crimson optics and stuck her glossa at him and the same could be said for her twin. She then reached into her subspace and pulled out a small cube and tossed it to her brother who greedily drank it. As he finished he looked at Radon who only glared before her optics went wide. Rodan turned and saw to his horror a heavily armored warrior standing behind him this one looked like he was dead. The decolonization that is on his body obvious showed that he was once a Decepticon.
"Holy shit!" Rodan cursed in English
As they walked closer they inspected the body,
"This guy's name was Scourge," said Rodan as he walked over to body and looked him up and down.
The tattoos on his face was enough to give his name as Radon could see.
"Damn let's find dad and blow this place apart," said Rodan
"You said it bro," replied Radon as she walked up to her brother and they continued to walk on.
--STARSCREAM--
Starscream turned when his face could not hold the image in his head anymore.
So that is what happened to him he thought remembering when Scourge was one of the top scouts for the Decepticon army.
He had disappeared early in the war.
He was a friend of Starscream's and now he knows why he disappeared.
All is not over yet my friend Unicron replied
Starscream could look in horror as he saw the shadows creep up to the children.
Sam could only watch as things were about to get ugly.
--RODAN AND RADON--
"Man is there no end to this!?" Rodan complained as they walked further into the dark tunnel they have been traveling for a good few hours.
"Well it was your fault I told you to go left but nnnnnnooooooo you went right and now we are totally lost," Radon screamed at her brother.
"Oh shut your trap bird breath or else…." Silence was the last of his sentence as he heard something and both he and Radon were instantly alert to something.
Turning their heads they made out the forms of many creatures as they came charging like the undead.
"OH SHIT!" They both yelled as they ran down the corridor.
--STARSCREAM--
"LEAVE THEM ALONE!" Starscream shouted at Unicron
Now why would I do that they are a threat to me anyone who is a master of the elements is threat to me. Was the reply
Without thinking Starscream charged the form of Unicron and the demon held him at bay with a sweep of his hand. Starscream flew back and collided with the wall.
That was pathetic you can do better then that oh mighty lord of the Decepticons
Starscream charged him again this time with his extendable claws at ready. Again Unicron slashed at him and he flew back into the wall.
At this case Starscream opened his cockpit and Sam stumbled out.
"Go find Radon and Rodan you know where they are find them," Starscream stated
How sweet letting out your pet to find your sorry excuse for children
Unicron did not hesitate to shoot at Sam but being smaller then the giant he was quick on his feet and out the door faster then anyone.
--RODAN AND RADON--
Both twins were now cornered when Sam found them and they were frightened beyond belief.
All that Martial Arts and these two still act like babies…ok technically they are still babies
Sam rushed through and tried not to be stepped on by any of the undead feet that made its way past him.
"RODAN! RADON!" he yelled at the top of his lungs.
Both twins snapped out of it to stare down at Sam.
"Sam thank Primus you are still alive!" said Radon as she scooped him up.
"I could say the same to you but you gotta help Starscream he is getting his ass kicked by Unicron," Sam said his voice was one of panic.
"Dad's in trouble?" said Rodan and Sam nodded as Radon lifted him up and placed him on her shoulder.
"Well what are we standing here fore let's find him,"
--STARSCREAM
Starscream went flying into the wall again Energon oozing from his mouth plates as he wiped them away. Unicron pinned him to the wall with his foot. His holoform proved to be a burden to Starscream as he was thrashed into the wall. Worse yet he made it look like his former leader Megatron.
You made the mistake of opposing me Starscream you should have still tried to destroy Cybertron like your former master did. Unicron said as he punched Starscream across the face plates again.
Starscream tumbled back and went sliding against the wall when Unicron used Megatron's ultimate weapon the Fusion Cannon. He slapped his arms together and the cannon came alive with a hum. Starscream knew that his end would be near if only he could see his children one last time.
TBC
Cliff hanger! LOL as you can see I made this completely from Starscream and the twins point is from the ground from the point of one of the least likely characters.
till next time.
