Chapter 3 Swamp

Ash

I couldn't believe what was going on. "What are you?" I asked.

"I am Starscream, air commander of Megatron's army," he said. His red eyes looked full of fear, like something bad can happen at any second.

"So, I'm going to walk towards where I think a road is now. And forget this ever happened," I said turning back around and didn't even get two full steps in when Starscream said, "Ash is it? I think the road is the other way. I saw it, when we were flying. But what are you going to do when you get to the road? Did you not think that far in advance? Typical human behavior." He crossed his arms and looked at me. I started to walk in the way he told me because he might know the land better and he followed me.

"If you don't trust me why are you following me?" I asked.

"Because I want to see what you do and you have to fix me. Megatron won't fix me, I don't trust him with my spark. But you? I'm sure you'll fix me up, you're kinder than him." His words made me smile, I could tell he meant every word.

"If you don't trust Megatron why do you stay with him?" I asked him. He was quiet behind me.

"He has Energon, my kinds life blood. We can't survive without it," he finally said after a few moments, "So did you come up with a plan on how to get back?" I looked at his red cold eyes.

"Yes, I'll get someone to pull over and use their cell phone to call Ricky and get him to pick us up. Its easy," I said smugly.

"And if no one's on the road?"

"There's usually one car on the road at any point. If nothing else we can use a flare."

"And alert Megatron in the process."

"And alert Megatron."

The Nemesis

Megatron walked into the communication room to see Soundwave working hard on the computer. Shockwave was close behind Megatron.

"Any word from Starscream?" Megatron's raspy voice asked. Soundwave looked back.

"Maybe with luck he got offlined," Shockwave said.

"He's alive but needs repairs. He is in no condition to fly back here. He was doing good until recently, let's hope he won't get captured by the Autobots," Soundwave reported.

"We cannot allow him to get captured. If tortured Starscream will spill everything about our plans even if he doesn't know much," Megatron thought aloud. ~Knockout go get Starscream and bring him back.~

~Right away my liege. ~ Megatron knew he could trust the red medic, even if Knockout cared a little too much about his paint job.

"Sir if I do say so myself, couldn't we just leave him for the humans?" Shockwave said.

"No. Even the humans could get information from him. They have their ways of torture. How are your experiments coming along?"

"Coming along as planned sir. The Autobots will suffer soon," Shockwave promised, "and so will the humans."
