Soundwave. Bored. Was silently, sitting in a chair, at a counter. In Shockwave's new laboratory. Resting his arm on the counter, placing his helm in his servo.
*Unmoving, Offlined?* "Recharging!" Shockwave smacked the arm, that held Soundwave's recharging helm.
SMACK!
Soundwave slamed his visor into the counter. Immediately waking him from his slumber. "Ow!" Soundwave grumbled rubbing his helm. "What the frag was that for!?" he growled, glaring at the one eyed purple mech. "Soundwave stay awake, and pay attention!" Shockwave scolded, rolling his optic. "But this is, soooooo boring!" Soundwave whined. "Can't we do something fun?" Soundwave sighed, placing his helm back in his servo.
"No" Shockwave rolled his optic again. "You are being punished for your insubordination" Shockwave shook his helm no. "If I didn't go for a flight, you probably wouldn't be here right now" Soundwave remarked. "I highly doubt that, me accidentally crashing into you on my way through the atmosphere, caused me to be brought apon this vessel" Shockwave scoffed. "As soon as my pressence would have been noticed by either factions, I would have been bridged here regardless" Shockwave snorted. Soundwave rolled his optics from behind his mask and sighed. "Whatever, I'm tired of sitting here, can I go?" Soundwave asked. "I'm afraid, you would have to ask Lord Megatron that question youngling" Shockwave chuckled. "And Megatron is pretty livid, from your little excursion last night" Shockwave smirked, Mixing different energons together. "You don't think I will?" Soundwave challenged. "Watch me" Soundwave hissed. Quickly escaping out the laboratory door.
"No no no no" Shockwave crooned. Pulling Soundwave back into the lab. "Nice try" Shockwave sneered. Wise to Soundwave's escape plan. Shockwave sat the deep violet youngling back down. "I'll call him here" Shockwave snickered, moving his equipment.
"Fragger..." Soundwave pouted, folding his arms. Shockwave was about to yell at Soundwave, just as Megatron entered. "Yes Shockwave what is it?" Megatron sighed, examining the shelves of cubes with, differen't coloured liquids. *That was quick...* Shockwave thought to himself. "Lord Megatron, it seems that Soundwave!" Shockwave smacked the back Soundwave's helm, as he walked past, to meet Megatron. "Ow, what the fff..." Soundwave whined, rubbing the back of his helm. "Is saying he has had enough punishment" Shockwave smirked folding his arms.
"Oh is that so?" Megatron sneered. Intimidatingly standing over Soundwave. Soundwave cowered, nervously smiling behind his mask. "Can I please go back to work now?" Megatron rolled his optics. "Soundwave" he sighed. "You've already done all your work today!" Megatron hissed, face palming. "Please, I want to be with you!" Soundwave begged. "No!" Megatron hissed. You will stay here, and fry your processer from boredom!" the warlord snapped. Soundwave cowered in his seat. And Megatron said nothing further, leaving the room. Heavy footsteps could be heard as the warlord traveled through the halls. "I warned you he was in a bad mood" Shockwave shrugged. "Well you got your answer" Shockwave examined a broken piece of equipment. "I just want to be with him..." Soundwave sighed. "I know that youngling" Shockwave internally smiled. "But Lord Megatron is punishing you at the moment"
"Why though!?" Soundwave threw his arms up. "All I did was go for a flight and find you!" Soundwave complained. "I do not know why Lord Megatron chooses to punish you" Shockwave mixed two chemicals together in a beaker. "Perhapes he has grown a protective side over you, through your new relationship" Shockwave shrugged. Soundwave rolled his optics from behind his visor, and sighed. "I have to go see Knockout for a moment" Shockwave announced heading towards the exit. "You stay here, and watch that" Shockwave pointed to the beaker filled with red liquid. "And don't touch it!" Shockwave snapped. "Yeah, sure, whatever..." Soundwave waved off the scientist. "I mean it, the last thing you need is another thing to go wrong for you" Shockwave warned, as he left the lab.
"I mean it!" Soundwave mimicked Shockwave. After the door hissed shut. "I can handle myself" Soundwave scoffed. "Warn me as if I were a sparkling or something" he snorted. Tapping the beaker with his slender digits. "How bad could this glass of liquid be?" Soundwave smirked. Watching the liquid inside the beaker. Soundwave sighed, looking for some sort of entertainment. Having an idea pop in his processor. "I know!" Soundwave cheered. Retracting Lazerbeak from his chest. The bird flew around the lab vibrating the chemicals it flew past. The room was too small and cluttered for the bird to fly around. Lazerbeak ended up knocking over a shelf of different chemicals, onto the counter. Where the beaker filled red chemical liquid, shattered from the other containers hitting it. Soundwave quickly reattached Lazerbeak to his chest.
Soundwave then got a good look at the chemicals trickling into one another. Watching them form a giant black puddle, that oozed off the counter next to Soundwave's peds. Soundwave jumped back in surprise.
Shockwave was about halfway down the cooridor, when he heard an explosin! Shockwave growled. "Soundwave!" He ran to the lab. "Primus he dosen't listen to anyone!" Shockwave growled. Before opening the door. Only to have a tidal wave of giant bubbles float out Soundwave happened to be stuck in one floating by. Shockwave's unamused gaze watched as Soundwave floated past, him into the hallway. "Ha ha!" Steve laughed as he walked past. Megatron didn't waste anytime, showing up to the place of the random explosion. "Bubblewave returns!" Soundwave giggled. Completely oblivious to Megatron's unamused fuming form, behind him, until a pop came. The bubble burst, and Soundwave fell flat on his aft. "Bubblewave?" an Eradicon whispered to Steve. "More like Troublewave!" Steve chuckled.
"Argh!" Soundwave visibly jumped, to the sound of his fathers growl. "That's it!" Megatron snarled. Grabbing one Soundwave's neck fins. Pulling the youngling through the hallways. "Ow ow ow!" Soundwave whimpered. Soundwave could not see at the moment. The bubble residue, from the giant bubble, that popped, some how made it's way on the inside of his visor. And was blinding his way of vision. The locks on his visor automatically hissed lose if any type of blockage blocked his vision. Soundwave was in no positon to pull of his visor at the moment. He would just have to wait and hope it didn't fall off infront of eveyone.
As they arrived at the younglings room. Megatron dragged Soundwave into the room, and tossed the youngling on the berth. Causing Soundwave's visor to fall off after he tumbled on the berth. "Stay here for the rest of the day!" Megatron scowled. "You have caused enough trouble!" Megatron scolded. Approaching the berth. "I'm sorry!" Soundwave apologized. "You are causing all this trouble I have too deal with!" he bellowed. "I don't mean to!" Soundwave cried, with watery optics. "And I have to deal with the Autobots still!" Megatron screamed, in Soundwave's face. "You are being incredibly stupid!" Megatron insulted. "And don't even think for a moment, that your crying will make me feel bad!" the warlord scoffed. "You certainly not helping anything with your idiotic stunts!" the gunmetal warlord, made Soundwave cower into a shivering ball, tears rolling down his face plate. Soundwave shut his optics tightly as he quivered in fear. He thought Megatron was going to offline him, as his father continued too screamed in his face. "And don't leave your room until I say so!" Megatron warned. Storming out locking the door behind him.
"Lord Megatron you are being to hard on him" said Knockout. The red medic was following Megatron with Shockwave. They both patiently waited outside the younglings door for the warlord. "He's just a youngling" Knockout reminded. " He dosen't mean to get in trouble on purpose" Knockout tried to coax the warlord, to be less harsh towards the youngling. "I know you sometimes cannot help using your brute force" Knockout sighed. "But..." "A little discipline does not hurt or damage little Soundwave" Megatron scowled interrupting the medic. "It may not hurt him phisically Lord Megatron" Knockout gave Megatron an angered expresion. "But mentally it hurts him" Knockout lowly growled. "He isn't an emotionless drone you thought he was, or you think he is" Knockout scoffed. "You may just be putting a huge dent in that relationship you are building" the medic warned, before leaving down the hall.
"Soundwave is no sparkling" Shockwave scoffed "He can handle a little brutality" Megatron snorted. "And if he can't perhaps he is another one of Optimus's sons, and I made a mistake of thinking he was mine" Megatron sneered. "If he can't buck up and deal with my ways of brutality" Soundwave had turned up the sensitivity on his audios, and was listening in on the conversation outside his door the whole time. "Soundwave needs to pack up and go live with the Autobots, if he cannot handle the treacherous ways of the Decepticons" Megatron scoffed to Shockwave. "Lord Megatron don't you think that's going a little to far?" Shockwave questioned. "He's your son, and is most loyal to you only" Shockwave reminded. "That's what I'm talking about!" Megatron hissed. "Am I running an army of emotional Decepticons!" Megatron growled. "Or am I running an army full of might, willing to take on the harsh ways of the Decepticons!?" the warlord snarled at the scientist. "Of course you are lord Megatron, emotions all kept at an all time low" Shockwave quickly obliged. "Only emotions every to be shown is hatred towards the Autobots!" Megatron hissed as he and Shockwave headed down the halls.
Soundwave sat up in the middle of his berth and frowned. "He hates me..." Soundwave cried. After the two left. "Fine then..." Soundwave balled his servo into a fist. "I won't be in your way any longer" Soundwave cleaned off his visor. Wiped away his tears. placing his visor back on, the locks sealed tightly, locking back into place. Soundwave easily hacked the lock and escaped his room. He took the route that had the least amount of traffic in the halls. Wisely staying clear of Megatron's paths. Soundwave stealthily made his way to the hanger to the flight deck. Once out on the deck he paused and thought about what he was bringing if he left. The youngling shook it off the thought and transformed quickly taking off down towards Nevada.
It only took a few moments to find the surface of the desert. Soundwave transformed and landed ontop of a ridge at a canyon. He stood staring down the into the ravine. Completely no worries of being noticed at the moment, his thoughts were elsewhere. Soundwave was getting beat on by the hot sun, he needed to get out of the heat. He hopped down into the ravine, and examined the long large rock walls. Soundwave casually walked down through the ravine. Pondering about what he was going to do with himself. "I'm not wanted by Megatron, and I'm sure as scrap not wanted by the Bots..." Soundwave sighed. "Where am I supposed to go?" Soundwave questioned. The sun was begining to fall and the night was soon to rise. Soundwave had to find Somewhere to hide, if he wondered around too much he might be found by one of the Eradicon soldiers or Autobots. Soundwave didn't worry to much about that at the moment. "Stupid fragger, I do all these things for you, I've never failed a misson!" Soundwave rambled off to himself. "You tell me I'm your youngling, then you treat me like scrap!" Soundwave hissed. The masked youngling continued to ramble on, completely oblivious to his spark picking up on another spark bond linked to him.
