It's now been 2 years since the incident that turned into friendship between me and Soundwave. I have taken the time since to learn all I can about what the cybertronian's call Minicons, as I want to make something special for Soundwave as a gift of friendship. I finish minor tweaking on the first one's form; I named her Ravage I designed her after a black panther.

I turn to the second form I have been working on; his form is rather complicated, as I don't have a real live form to look at as I build Lazerbeak as I have dubbed the flier. I glance at the records I got from the library as I finish creating the disguise of the pterodactyl. Delicately I check Lazerbeak over one more time murmuring, "lets see: claws sharp enough to tear through anything, but gentle enough not to damage Soundwave's shoulder if he decides to perch on it, not to damage mine either, nor to damage my arm or Soundwave's if he decides to land on either of them, check. Wings proportionate to his body; check. Fast flying capability; check. Fierce attitude towards battle, but tenderness when not; check. Loyalty programming to Soundwave and myself; check. Weapons systems online. Speaking capabilities and reasoning abilities online."

I step back and smile as the two are finally finished after 2 years, I check my gifts to find out what time it is and realize it is time I am to go meet Soundwave and I activate my 2 creations, Lazerbeak perches on my right shoulder and Ravage stands loyally at my feet. I delicately brush my right hand against my Autobot making on the right side of my neck, hiding it as I always do when I meet with Soundwave as we meet as neutrals not as a Decepticon warrior and an Autobot ally; I go down and head towards our normal meeting spot, a spot very secluded, but still in walking distance; the spot needs to be secluded so no one can find us together who shouldn't like my guardian Optimus.

5 minutes after leaving my palace I find myself in the familiar meeting place of me and Soundwave and find the Mech already is already there waiting for me, but his back is turned to where I enter at. I move closer and touch his right shoulder and say, "sorry I'm late Soundwave, I was finishing a project." Soundwave turns around hearing my voice and he says, "it's no problem Akadeanna." He then notices something perched on my right shoulder and another thing at my Pedes as they call it or feet as we call it and he asks, "what are they?" he indicates Ravage and Lazerbeak.

I smile and say, "they are the project I have been working on for the past 2 years; they are for you, a gift of friendship so to speak," I pause and indicate the pterodactyl perching on my right shoulder and say, "his name is Lazerbeak; he is designed after a prehistoric earth animal known as a pterodactyl," I pause again and indicate the black panther at my feet and then say, "and her name is Ravage, she is designed after another earth animal known as a black panther. I have read up on what your people call Minicons and I designed them to look like Minicons."

Soundwave is shocked as no one has ever given him a gift let alone two of friendship, but to him they look quite amazing. He bends down and offers his right servo to Ravage and he says, "hello Ravage." The black panther looks curiously at the male and then she looks up at me and asks, "who is he?" I smile softly at Ravage and say, "his name is Soundwave, I created you and Lazerbeak for him." Ravage is rather shocked at my words and she asks, "why did you do that creator?" I stroke Ravage's head and say, "Soundwave showed me kindness 2 years ago when I had been attacked and we became friends."

Ravage is shocked at my words, but she sniffs at the servo offered to her and nudges her head against it, and it makes Soundwave smile and he pets the black panther who I said was named Ravage. I say, "I programmed them to be both loyal to you, however I also programmed them to be loyal to me as I am their creator." Soundwave smiles at my words and says, "I'm glad, but of course you would program it into them for them to be loyal to you as well. Can Lazerbeak really fly?" he points at the pterodactyl on my right shoulder. I smile and say, "of course he can fly." I then say, "show them what you can do Lazerbeak."

Lazerbeak releases his talons from my shoulder and takes quickly to the air doing amazing aerial displays that could make any Seeker jealous, I had programmed techniques that I had seen the 4 Seekers I am obsessed with do into him. Soundwave watches the pterodactyl fly; he is truly amazed as his flight abilities would make Starscream jealous, he asks, "what else can he do?" I say, "all right Lazerbeak lets show off your weapons systems!" Lazerbeak understands my words and powers up his weapons systems and starts showing off his skills. Soundwave watches even more in awe at the small flier, while I watch with pride as the Maquis weapons systems work perfectly.

After 20 minutes Lazerbeak flies in and lands on my outstretched arm and I ask, "what do you think of him?" Soundwave smiles and says, "he's amazing. I can't wait to see Ravage in action too." I smile and say, "you will, just wait until the next battle Soundwave, trust me they won't disappoint you at all." Soundwave smiles, but asks, "what about Lazerbeak? Does he talk?" I nod at his question and say, "yeah he does, but he prefers to be the silent type except when he's fighting." Soundwave nods at my words, but he says, "I better go or Starscream will be throwing a fit." I smile and say, "of course Soundwave. Take care of yourself and I will see you again tomorrow at the same time and same place."

Soundwave nods and Ravage moves to be at Soundwave's side and Lazerbeak flies off my arm and lands on Soundwave's right shoulder. I hug Soundwave and say, "see you tomorrow Soundwave." Soundwave returns my hug and says, "I will see you tomorrow Akadeanna." He turns and leaves with Ravage hot on his Pedes as he heads back to the Decepticon base, while I turn and head back to my palace, making my Autobot mark reappear on my neck, I'm not surprised seeing Optimus waiting for me.

Optimus asks, "and just where were you?" I shrug and say, "meeting a friend, I had something to give him." Optimus' eyes narrow at my words and he says, "but you know Decepticons are about!" I nod and snap, "I know that Optimus! I wasn't that far from the palace, just a 5 minute walk! I had to give the friend my 2 projects that I've been working on for the past 2 years for him!" Optimus winces at my words, but he says, "all right lets go in." I nod and we head into my large palace.
