I have no idea what to call the Autobots or Decepticons in this. I could be Autodrakes whatsoever but I have no clue. If any of you know what to name these two rival clans, please PM me or just reply in the reviews. Without further ado, let's get on with this.


Chapter 1: Even Warlords Have Boredom

Life is never easy for dragons. Especially if it's a clan rather than a solitary life for the minute you are born, you're already sorted out in the hierarchy. One in particular, slumping on his throne in his very own throne room. He doesn't want to deal with anyone right now. Especially his deputy or second-in-command in anyways. Failed missions and he's losing more members of his clan.

Yet, he sees them as Omega Subs, his Eradicons. Nothing but the exact same dragons as if they were cloned. To identify each of them, they bore their numbers on the left side of their arms. To address them, he called them by their numbers rather than name. Because he can and he will.

Things are slow in his clan. Same things happen everyday. So far, none of his members encountered his rival, Optimus Prime or anyone from his clan. Practicing and battling at the training ground has become boring. Him, an ex-gladiator found training to be boring. He ponders on his throne, made out of crystals that were mined by the Eradicons. He was waiting for one of the dragons to enter. He wants to discuss something.

Before he could blink, a slender grey-purple dragon stood next to him. If it were anyone else, they would have run or scream at this surprised arrival. To him, he was the most efficient and most loyal member he's ever asked for. The dragon is the third-in-command, the ever seeing eyes in the clan, the master of communications and so on.

" You know the reason why I summoned you, Soundwave?" he asked the silent drake.

The drake, Soundwave shakes his head. He'd never breathe a word out of his mouth. It is not because he is mute rather he took a vow of silence for a very good reason.

" Lately, nothing has changed or the activities caused by Prime and his Autobots. Plus, we have most of the relics. So, why the frag am I bored?!"

Soundwave only tilted his head in confusion. His leader had nothing else to do? There are other things to occupy one's mind. He flicked his tail to the exit of the throne room.

" I've already practiced," he told him. " Even a mere battle will become a dull affair. What's happening to me?"

The silent drake slinks out of the room, beckoning his leader to follow. The both of them stopped in front of the den which belonged to their medic. The leader shook his head.

" I made my visit to Knockout yesterday. He said I should find a so called 'hobby'. Well, how can I when I have that idiot to take care of!"

He was referring to his second-in-command. He is an ambitious one among them. Trying to overthrow him, backstab him if he will so that he'll be the leader of the clan. Why did he still keep him? He somehow find his deputy's attempt to be amusing. Especially his failures.

Soundwave stretched his neck towards the leader's own den. Confused, the leader enter his own den. What does the silent drake want him to do in his own den?

His den had most of his weapons and hidden supplies of glowing purple crystals. The weapons were mostly from his days as a gladiator. He ran a claw along his weapons, ranging from swords to axes. Some of the weapons were covered with dry blood of his enemies.

A thin smile emerged on his lips. How he loved the weak begging him for mercy before he could make the kill. The feeling of screams and cries are music into his earholes. Sound wave must have rubbed that into him.

Suddenly, his claw froze at an empty space.

Where is it?! he thought to himself as he rummaged through his weapons. After some time, he realised his favourable weapon is missing! He roared in rage, smashing his other weapons out of rage.

" WHERE IS IT?!"

A grey dragon rushed towards him. He had a red crest on his forehead and a look of a conniving snake. " Lord Megatron! What happened?!"

The leader grabbed him by the neck. " MY DARK STAR SABER, STARSCREAM! WHAT DID YOU DO WITH IT?!"

" I didn't touched your Star Saber, Master!" his second-in-command exclaimed. He tried to wriggle out of his grasp but the tyrant's grip was too firm. He was speaking truthfully this time. He has to think of something quick before he'd be a dead.

" M-maybe the Autobots did it!" he replied quickly. " One of them had-"

SLAP!

" Don't be an idiot, Starscream!" he growled. " Why would they steal it whereas Prime has one of his own!"

Not knowing how to answer, he gave his leader a nervous smile. Rolling his eyes, Megatron dropped him. " Search everywhere!" he ordered. " Leave no stone unturned or tree rooted until we'll find what's mine."

Thus, a search party was made under Starscream's command. They've searched everywhere but alas, they return without the weapon. Megatron wasn't pleased. When all else fails, he turned his attention towards the silent master of communications.

" Have seen anyone suspicious?" he inquired. " Or captured any evidence relating to this?"

Again the silent drake shakes his head. In his own way, he's never seen anyone suspicious or clues that might lead them to the thief. Not a claw print, foot print or even a scent. Whoever the thief was, he's good.

" If I ever fine that…" he seethed. " I will use my Star Saber, pierce his heart before cutting his head and maybe flayed him for a trophy."

The other Decepticons didn't dare to question their leader, seeing him in rage. Dragging his SIC while asking his TIC to accompany him, the warlord decided to hunt and maybe stop at the middle of the South where he needs to gather some supplies for his future plans.

Without a word, he spread his wings to take off. The other two follow suite.


Oh dear, who could have robbed Megatron's Star Saber. Plus, what does this thief want with the weapon? Who is it? Well, we'll find out in the next chapter.
