Gravity Lies

Dreadwing was chasing Wheeljack when he felt his brother awaken and he greeted him over the bond, celebrating his return. He had not felt his brother in eons, and he had always dreamed of the day that he would find Skyquake again. He had lost hope several times before, but now his dream had come true. He imagined reuniting with his brother, and he imagined returning to Megatron, a complete set. Two split-sparks, separated at birth, coming home.

But as he paced a dwarf planet the color of silver dirt, he felt his brother die and he howled in rage. He fired his cannons at Wheeljack, unrelenting. They passed two ringed planets, and he thought he saw an ice planet with more rings out of the corner of his optic, but he couldn't be sure with the tears rolling down his scrunched-up faceplates. He passed moons, and one large star he assumed was a sun to these planets. But the one Wheeljack was heading to was a pathetic mud world of green and blue.

One of Dreadwing's shots struck true and sent the Wrecker spiralling into the mud ball. He gave chase, rage replacing the happiness in his spark. He was so close! He was so close to his brother, and now he is gone again...his poor, poor brother.

He reached up and touched his chest above his spark. "Brother, I will avenge you. I will make those who harmed you pay!"
