Arcee's systems burned, energon dripping from every available crevice. It dripped from places that she didn't know energon even circulated from.
She knew that it wouldn't be long before she bled to death, but she didn't care. She only cared about Jack, and knowing that before she went he was safe. That was the only reason she was holding on, to keep him alive and well.
Megatron took another slow, deliberate walk around her and grinned.
"It would be so easy, to end your pitiful existence Autobot" He informed her calmly, brushing his claws together as he observed her life blood on his digits.
"But I shall allow your spark to beat a little longer, after all, what would be the point in returning you to Optimus dead? Oh no, we can find a better use for you than that" He chuckled and she managed a weak glare at him from where she hung, she must have looked pitiful but she didn't care. She would be defiant till the end.
"Knockout, what do you suppose we should do with the femme?" Megatron asked as the vibrantly coloured mech came forwards from the lingering shadows.
"Oh I'm sure we can think of something Lord Megatron" The red mech chuckled and the two grinned maliciously at her.
Jack wanted to move but his new body was still restrained by the massive metal hooks, his head and chest free but it wasn't enough. He was still restrained and they had applied some kind of strange mask to his face that prevented him from speaking, they'd drilled it into his face and it had hurt so much when they had but he hadn't even been able to scream.
He pulled once more at the restraints and heard the familiar groaning as it strained against him, but he still hadn't managed to break free. He was trying, boy was he trying but he wasn't quite strong enough.
MECH were smart, they wouldn't have given him enough strength to break free after all the hard work they had gone through to…change him, they wouldn't just let him get away. After all he was such a perfect specimen.
He pulled, listening to the groaning of the restrains. He heard something that sounded like something popping and his body lurched forwards, he looked down at the restraints.
They were breaking, he'd pulled at them so much that they were started to give.
He glared at them and pushed his top half forwards with all the newfound strength he had and didn't stop even when his muscles…or whatever they were now, started aching.
He heard another pop and his leg started shifting from it's previously unmoveable position. He slid it upwards above the restraint and then did the same with his other leg and then shoved his new feet into the ground and pushed himself forwards, pulling against the restraints on his arms. The only ones that were left.
"Come on, come on" He hissed repeatedly to himself, he didn't know how much longer he had until Silas and the rest of MECH came charging through the doors so he had to move NOW.
The final restraints snapped and Jack lurched forwards, landing on the floor with a very loud clang.
His head shot up and he jumped up so that he could check if anyone was coming, but no one did. He turned to the wall and stared at it for a moment.
I'm a massive robot now…surely I can break through a wall…right?
He took a few steps back and glared at the wall, before charging shoulder first into the wall.
June Darby was a careful woman, she enjoyed long walks with her son and looking through old photographs. She had grown to enjoy her visits to the Autobot base with her son and the Autobots, but now Jack was gone she didn't enjoy the visits.
She was on the way there now, she had to go. Had to keep looking for him.
However, when a giant silver and blue robot crashed out of the side of a warehouse she wasn't entirely sure what she should do.
The blue and silver robot skidded to a stop and looked around, as if it was lost and then it spotted June in her car and she instinctively held her breath. But the robot didn't attack her, it just sort of…stared at her.
There was a sound from behind the robot and it turned, before sprinting towards June.
She shrieked as it grabbed the car and ran, with her still inside and whatever was chasing them being left behind as the robot ran.
June could only scream, until that is she recognised the way they were going. This silver and blue robot, whoever it might have been, was running straight towards the Autobot base.
Carefully she reached into her handbag and pulled out her phone, before furiously typing a text in for Miko.
Miko was bored, ever since the disappearance of Jack neither she nor Raf had been allowed on any recon missions. Raf didn't mind, he was content to sit on his laptop and study but Miko wasn't, she wasn't allowed to rock out as Ratchet claimed it disturbed his thoughts.
Grumpy old aft head.
She sighed and flopped down into a chair and watched the base as it continued away, normally Jack would have said or done something by now to cheer her up. She glared at the floor, she hoped whoever took Jack and Arcee got the scrap kicked out of them by the bots, especially by Bulk.
Her phone buzzed in her pocket and she lazily lifted it out and flipped it open to inspect the text.
"OPTIMUS!"
Okay so it's a bit short but I have a lot of revision to do for my exams in May and June so they're all going to be a bit shorter than usual so I can study.
Whoa was I surprised at the number of reviews! Ah I love you all!
Answerthecall, it gets worse as the story progresses along with Arcee's torture as she isn't getting out for a while yet (I hate quick rescues, it's always so predictable)
Bio team2, Thanks!
Panther-Strife, Sorry but this isn't a Jack/Arcee story, even with him as a bot I just can't see the pairing, and he wont necessarily look like a singular bot from the old series, might have a combination of a few of them.
BlackWolf, Sorry to have kept you waiting then!
Lionfire, I actually don't mind Miko, for some reason I like all the characters that the rest of the world seems to hate, take Sari from TFA for instance, I quite liked her (even if she was a little loud)
Foxbear, it shall, however it shall not be until a few chapters later when Megatron recognises him, after all, he never forgets a face.
Sakura, I shall, and here it is!
Read and Review guys!
Tulip Out.
