Knockout'sFanGirl221: I agree, they both can be rather disgusting at times XD I'm glad you liked it! :)
Brains walked around Jack's room before hopping onto the boys' desk as he worked on his homework. Jack ignored the small bot until he knocked over most of his stuff. Jack sighed and turned in his chair towards the mech. There was a quick knock at his door and he jumped. He looked down at Brains with a frown.
"Scrap…" he muttered. He picked Brains up who started to protest. "Shut up! My mom can't know about you!"
"Fine, fine." He grumbled as he was put into the closet. June came in with a worried look. Jack was picking up the stuff the mech clumsily knocked over.
"Jack what happened in here?" June asked as she walked up to her son. Jack put his stuff on the desk and smiled sheepishly up at his mom.
"Sorry mom, I fell asleep while doing homework and knocked over some of my stuff." Jack said. He stole a glance at the closet before standing. June laughed and shook her head.
"Dinner's almost ready, clean up and come down." June left the room. Jack let Brains out and the bot jumped onto his desk. Brains sat down while Jack started to leave his room.
"Hey, don't you know that I can transform?" Brains sneered. Jack turned to glare at him but in Brains' place was a laptop. On the top of the laptop was a Decepticon insignia.
"Hey! You said you weren't a con!" Jack growled. Brains transformed and walked up to the raven haired teen.
"I switched sides! Sheesh you act like a bot can't change." Brains hissed. Jack stared at the bot for a minute before sighing.
"Sorry about that, I've just had some really bad experiences with cons. Especially Airachnid." Jack shuddered as he remembered his first experience with the spiderbot. Judging by Brains' cringe he knew that they weren't the best of friends.
**The next day**
Techna was sipping a cube of energon when the humans drove in with their guardians. Cliffjumper greeted Arcee as the humans walked up to the balcony. Wheelie jumped from the railing to Arcee's shoulder (which was only a few feet away) and leaned up against her helm.
"So how about me and you's go have some fun?" the bot asked. Techna scowled and picked up Wheelie as Arcee started to look uncomfortable.
"Leave her alone you little creep." Miko walked up closer to her with a confused expression. Techna looked down at her. "Try your best to stay away from Wheelie; he's a perverted little creep. Luckily Brains isn't as bad but he isn't innocent either."
"Don't go spreading lies! Sheesh and you'd think you knew a bot!" Wheelie growled as Techna placed him back on the ground.
"I swear, ever since her Carrier went missing she's gotten more and more like Megatron each day." Brains grumbled. Wheelie shot him a look that told him to shut up as Techna froze. The Autobots and humans looked at Techna with surprise and worry. Optimus walked up and placed a servo on her shoulder.
"Techna, what happened to your Carrier?" he asked. Techna clenched her fists and turned so she could face everyone at once before taking a deep breath.
"Her name was Firestrike. She had green optics like mine and was a seeker. One day, before I even met Starscream and his brothers, she just went missing. Creator was distressed and that's when he became a gladiator. I don't know what her faction is or if she's even alive." Techna said, tears forming in her optics. "It was so long ago that I barely remember anything about her." She sighed and looked down at the smaller bots who also seemed troubled. "Wheelie and Brains are my little brothers. Carrier disappeared not long after they were born." Everyone stared at her in shock before turning to Brains and Wheelie.
"Hey, hey, hey! There's no pity needed for us! We got over it a long time ago." Wheelie hissed, but everyone could tell he was lying. Brains sat on the back of the couch next to his twin. Raf and Jack stood next to Miko at the railing.
"Wait, so they're your little brothers?" Jack asked. Techna nodded slowly. "So Megatron's their Creator?" another nod. "Were they forced into the Decepticons too?" Techna narrowed her optics at her brothers.
"No, they wanted to be Decepticons. They believed in that 'peace through tyranny' scrap. That is, until Megatron started treating them like how he'd treat Starscream. He never liked them for some reason." Techna responded. Brains stood up.
"Probably because we couldn't really grow any more than this!" he spat. Techna frowned and turned towards the Autobots who still looked surprised.
"I never told you guys because you'd never met them. I was actually hoping you wouldn't due to their attitude!" Techna glared at her brothers at the last sentence.
"Techna, I understand why you didn't, but we needed to know about this." Optimus said hesitantly. Techna tilted her helm to the side in confusion.
"Why?" she asked. The Autobots in the room shared a pained look (except for Optimus who kept facing Techna with sorrow in his optics).
"Because Firestrike's one of the Autobots."
Yes I know I'm using Firestrike again (look at Life as an Autobot to understand what I'm talking about). Yes I know this was a short chapter but I had to cut it off there for an awesome cliffhanger! :D
