"Now hang on a second!" Jazz called out stopping the chanting.
"With the way we've been treating him, he has a good reason to finally snap!" Sideswipe announced to the crowd.
"Yes Mirage has held back on his ways for his entire life..."
"Wow that's a long wait to lash out on us" Air raid scoffed interupting Optimus again.
"And it's only a matter of time before he snaps again, and kills more of us!" One soldier shouted getting nods in agreement.
"Yeah it only took him one swipe to kill three of us, it's going to take an entire army to stop him from doing it again!" The other Autobots continued to rally.
Optimus looked at all the Autobots shouting and carying on, he looked at the boys and Arcee who looked at him with pleeding optics.
"How is this supposed to be handled, this getting out of control?" Prowl asked turning to Optimus.
"Cast him out of the Autobots, let him roam the dark streets of Kaon, the decepticons will adopt him eagerly!" Air raid shouted his suggestion.
"Yeah, cast him out!" All bots in the room agreed, and continued to shout rude comments about Mirage.
"Settle down, that's enough!" Ironhide and Prowl growled trying to calm the crowd.
"If not cast him out, then we shall terminate him!" Another autobot suggested, getting the crowd even more excited.
While Optimus and the old ones were busy, the boys and Arcee snuck out of the meeting, into the hallway.
"This is not going good for Mirage!" Jazz panicked to the three.
"We know Jazz, we need to figure out a way to keep him, and fast" Arcee replied starting to walk her way down to the brig with the twins.
"Hey scrawny, how'd you end up down here, you guys are sent to a different brig for punishment?" A large decepticon seeker in the cell beside Mirage spoke, to Mirage who stood silently and strongly stood waiting at his cell door.
"...Nothing of your concern con!" Mirage hissed not even looking at the con that spoke.
"It's rare an autobot gets thrown down with us, so you're considered a con to tiny" The seeker replied with a laugh.
"...I did something terrible..." Mirage sighed looking at the ground.
"Like what, you're just a kid" The seeker scoffed walking over closer to Mirage's cell wall.
"I only did this horrific thing after I was automatically named a traitor cause I wouldn't kill my decepticon brother, traitor led to me anyway since I was trained by decepticons" Mirage spoke angirly to the decepticon.
"So you are a decepticon" the seeker scoffed leaning against the wall, and rolling his optics.
"No I am not!" Mirage snapped keeping his angered look fixed onthe cell door.
"Oh yeah, if not then what kid?" The seeker laughed making two other con prisoners laugh as well.
"I don't know..." Mirage sighed confused on what he was, at that thought Arcee Jazz and the twins came running in.
"What are you guys doing down here?" Mirage asked seeing the panick on his adopted sibblings faces.
"There's an all autobot meeting about you going on right now!" Arcee huffed looking at the decepticon seeker leaning agains. the wall closest to Mirage's cell.
"Your Soundwave's little brother, the one that escaped that facillity" The seeker thought outloud.
"Oh great... and?" Mirage sighed rolling his optics ignoring the seekers comment.
"It's not going good for you little bro, the decisions are cast you out, or..."
"Termination!" Sunstreaker cried out, finishing Jazz's sentence.
"I didn't mean to... I don't know...what I was doing..." Mirage stuttered starting to think the consequences were necessary.
"Mirage, not that I am agreeing with them, but you are dangerous, you were trained and raised to be that way, it's in your blood" Arcee sighed not wanting to admit what she said.
"It's like keeping a vicious cyber animal caged up, it just dosen't work, Mirage we've tried to help you, tried training you to get along with others, but you fight it and otherwise go killer" Jazz added.
"Fine..." Morage said, bearly a whisper.
"What?" Sideswipe asked lifting his helm and looking at Mirage.
"Release me, and I will leave" Mirage replied walking closer to the cell door.
"That's exactly what we are going to do" Air raids voice came from behind the four young adults.
"Air raid your comments are not needed" Optimus growled lowly, to the areal bot as he and a crowd of Autobots followed to Mirage's cell.
"Wait you aren't really going to send him on his way are you?!" Sideswipe asked running up to Rathet.
"We have no other non life threatening chioce" Ratchet sighed to the silver twin.
"But he's a kid he dosen't know where he's going, he dosen't know the planet like we do!" Sideswipe argued.
"It is what's best for now" Optimus sighed opening the cell to Mirage.
"Hey I don't trust that fragger, put him in some sort of bonds" Air raid called out his outburst.
"It's not necessary... I wont hurt anyone" Mirage said innocently looking up at Optimus.
"Mirage you haven't been able to prove that, I'm sorry" Prowl shook his helm, putting Mirage in stasis cuffs.
"That's not going to hold him!" some autobot soldiers complained.
"Shut up all of you, before a rearange your circuitry!" Ratchet threatened as they walked past, out the door.
"Mirage..."
"No don't say anything, I know I'm no longer welcome here, or anywhere, I'll live on the streets, or maybe be a science project again!" Mirage growled stopping Optimus from saying a sympathetic apology.
"Mirage please, don't be like that" Arcee and the boys pleaded as Mirage's stasis cuffs were taken off.
"I'll see again... maybe..." Mirage said his sad goodbye before running off into cybertrons dark streets leaving the only bots that cared for him, behind.
