nox shorts Chapter 36 Giving two huge dorks advice, a buzz lightyear of star command fanfic

Star command.

"So explain to me again why we're opening a portal to another world?" Buzz asked quizzically to the LGMs but they were too in their work to even talk.

Mira and Booster were even confused along with XR. Nebula enters in, grumbling under his breath as his desk was by his side with stacks of papers.

"I will deal with those later!" And pushes his desk outside and shuts the door.

"Finally away from that nightmare! Buzz!" Nebula walks to them and grins. "Good your here! We need the muscles in case of something entering in."

XR enters with Nos by his side.

"Are you certain you will be alright luv?" Nos spoke having a bad feeling about this.

"Babe I'll be alright and it's just a simple look out. If anything I'll probably be the safest if zombies came out." XR chuckles but it didn't faze his boyfriend. "Hey I'll be ok, if anything happens, I'll call for you." XR reassures him and Nos smiles and nuzzles his head.

"I will see you later luv." Nos smiles and kisses him.

XR melts into the kiss only for Nos to pull back. "We can kiss more later luv, I fear I may want to get more than kisses." He purrs lowly

"Well I wouldn't mind that." He grins but they stop when they heard the commander coughs.

Before XR could say a word, Nos kisses his cheek. "It is alright luv," He whispers in his receptor, "we can go somewhere more private."

XR blushes and sees him go. He turns and sees his friends and pops there watching him. Booster and Mira were giving him thumbs up while Buzz and pops gave him a stern look.

"Hey at least we weren't acting like teenagers and going in a broom closet." XR blushes and glares at them.

"XR this is a matter of duty than lollygagging!" Buzz glared. "Besides just because Nos-4-a2 is a defect doesn't mean he can't be trusted. Did you tell him it was top secret?"

"Buzz he's an energy vampire, he knows what goes on in the system."

"Reeaaaaadyyyy." One of the LGMs spoke.

"About time!" Nebula stated and saw the machines whirring.

"Commander can you explain why we're opening a portal to another universe?" Buzz was the first to ask.

"We're hoping to open to other universes and see if we can meet other space rangers."

Buzz smiles at the possible other Buzz but the evil buzz came into mind. "Sir are you sure?"

"Of course!" Nebula smirk. "That way we can keep the portal from Zurg."

A portal opens and everyone was amazed.

"Unknown being approaches." One of the LGMs spoke.

"Alright let's be ready for anything!"

Buzz and his teams aims ready as the LGMs made their way to leave.

They see a large metal hand enter through the portal.

"Move team!" Buzz cried out and they scattered, each moving out of the way from the hand.

XR flew up and tried to move out of the way but just when he got out of the way, the hand smacks against the wall causing a shake, causing some of the machinery to react.

Boost who was next to the panel for the claw, lost his balance and bumped into the panel and hitting the control keys.

XR keeping away, got smacked by the claw and fell on the floor.

"That's gonna bruise in the morning…" XR groans glad his head stopped shaking.

"XR look out!"

XR barely gotten a chance to react but the hand already gotten him and pulls him in, causing the portal to close.

"XR!" Booster cried out, worried about his friend.

"Not only we weren't ready, that giant metal hand took XR!" Buzz groan, "Can this get any worse?!"

Nos breaks through the door, looking enraged and worried.

"It just did." Mira spoke.

Meanwhile earlier

Starscream was fixing the intercom after their oh so great leader of the Deception, Megatron, gotten into another fight with Optimus prime.

"They think this is an easy job for me…?" he grumbles to himself and saw there was one connection left but he couldn't reach it.

"I wish we would consider being cooperative with the humans." As of late he has been studying the humans for scientific purposes and saw how dare he say it, unsavage they are.

"Their probably much better to have a proper conversation than these louts." He stopped when he thought of his dear friend skyfire. He took an unnecessary breathe and frowns. The only friend he ever trusted he now lost because of the fear of losing him. He had no choice, at the end of it all he would have been forced to kill his best friend and no matter how many he killed, he couldn't have the spark to kill him.

"I knew he would never survive here and the Autobots would take care of him. But still…." 'I wish I could be with him.' His thought process was disrupt when he sensed an incoming disruption and looks to see a portal of some kind.

"I hope it's not that arrogant drunken man." He shuddered at the horrified thing. He saw nothing came in and was relief it wasn't the drunken man and confused. He sensed something on the other side and figures he should test it to see and cease his curiosity. He puts his hand through the portal and was glad his hand was not disintegrated nor cut off. Just when he was ready to pull back,

"What on Primus is the second in command doing on the floor?"

Starscream smacked his hand on a wall of some kind but he didn't care as he hate more than the drunken man and as much as Megatron,

"Shockwave. Oh what do I owe the displeasure of seeing you? I figured you would be already disintegrated by the fembots by now." Starscream spat with disgust just saying his name.

"How of a joke, just like your very existence. Of not for our saviour and Lord Megatron, you would be dead."

"Please save me from the ever waste from your ever high frag. I am trying to fix the intercom our so called leader broke."

"I'd watch your tone Starscream, you may lose your status." Shockwave retort. "I will leave to your excuses and unwanted presence." And he left.

Starscream glares at the now closed doors.

"Wow does he have something stuck up in him?"

"You don't know the half of it." Starscream replied but froze from answering any further and look to in his hand a small robot.

XR waves nervously and Starscream was not surprised but somehow he was.

"Give me a good reason why I shouldn't blast you and go on with my life?" He asked and tightens his grip.

"Well… I agree that one eyed creep is a genuine frag as you put it?" XR smiles nervously.

Starscream gave it a moment. "I would agree if I wasn't in a foul mood." He then looks to the intercom. "I'll make you a deal, help me with the intercom and I won't destroy you and I'll help you get back to your own universe."

"I'll take that deal. Wait your not surprised?" XR was a bit flabbergasted.

"Your better than that drunken man that keeps popping out of nowhere." Starscream shudders at the face of him.

"How bad is this guy?" XR was now getting scared.

"You don't want to know." He spoke and places him in the intercom. "Now your going to see a cord, it is the one thing I cannot plug in. All you need to do is plug into the socket of the wall."

"Got it!" XR shouted and places it in.

The intercom turns on and Starscream was relieved. He sees the small robot come out. "Now that this is finished, I will take you to my lab and interrogate you."

"Hey we had a deal!" XR shouted.

"And I will keep it with the information you give me. I cannot make a interdimensional portal without information. Besides be lucky it was I who found you and no one else." Starscream spoke.

"Right and your a saint."

"Would you rather be disintegrated or used for a target? I'm sure Megatron will be displeased to have an unwanted intruder lying around."

"You pulled me here!" XR yelled.

"How was I supposed to know?!" He growls. "Who in their minds opens a portal unannounced?!" He screeched.

XR wanted to yell back but took a moment. "Alright you got me there-Wait even if we didn't, who would be stupid enough to put their hand in a portal?!"

Starscream growls but kept quiet and hears someone coming.

"Keep quiet and not a word." Starscream whispers and put him in his cockpit. He waits to see it was Megatron with shockwave behind him along with Soundwave.

"Report Starscream!" Megatron growls.

"The intercom is fixed lord Megatron." He answers but kept calm as much as he could.

Megatron pushes him to press the button on the intercom and sees it's working.

"Perhaps if you weren't so pathetic in talking to yourself, I would say you did well."

Starscream nodded but deep inside he wanted to wipe that smug look off.

"Go do whatever you do best and not slag off your duties."

Starscream walks away but not without giving a threatening look to shockwave.

As soon as he makes his way to his lab, he lets XR out and began to punch they walls.

"Sheesh you should meet the villain in my universe, he gives the same compliments."

Starscream stops and calms himself. "You have no idea how -ARRRGH!"

"Yeah I know a lot of those 'argh'. I work with them and I arrest them." XR replied.

Starscream raises a brow. "what do you do?"

"I'm a space ranger." XR answers.

"A space ranger. A space cop in short." Starscream took it to thought. "Well tell me then space ranger, how can you relate? Do you work with a tyrannical leader bent on enslaving organics and take control of cybertron and suck all what this world have?"

XR frowns "Well I don't work for one but I always interfere and ruins his plans but technically Nos knew what it's like and he was created from him."

Starscream looks to him with a questionable look. "Created? And let me guess you were too from another organic?"

"Hey don't dis on how organics can be. They can surprise you in a lot of ways."

"Believe me I can agree. When you come to earth it is quite an amazing thing, scientifically speaking." Starscream shrugs. "I would like to go back to study this world if not for... this."

XR frowns. "Why don't you?"

"... It was hard coming here and even more when I cannot see my…. Ex friend."

"What you two got into a fight? Can't be that bad." XR asked.

"I shot him."

"Well not as bad as Buzz and Warp but why?"

Starscream sat back. "I guess to understand the truth I would explain before. He and I thousands years ago were explorers. This was during the outbreak revolution on cybertron. At the time it was terrible being there but my friend, he would make it feel like there was nothing wrong. When we got here it was around as the humans would call it the ice age. We were caught in a storm and he was caught in it. I went for days looking for him but I was nearly lost if not for a rescue team. However I didn't want to stop looking! I wanted to find him by any means! But I was given they couldn't find a trace so they presumed him dead."

XR gave him a sympathetic look. "I'm sorry that happened and for a thousand years you felt it was your fault."

Starscream kept quiet.

"So is that why he doesn't want to talk?"

"I wish." Starscream sat on his chair as XR sat on his what he can assume was a pad.

"About an earth half a year we found him." He smiles a genuine smile. "I was bent on saving him and I was thrilled to see him alive!" He then frowns. "But Megatron, he wanted him to prove his loyalty by making him go against his morality. I was to see him go through with it and he didn't shot them so I shot him. He joined the autobots and I was alone again."

"Call me crazy but do you love him?"

Starscream looks to him in shock and stood quiet. "What makes you think I do? He is a weak and pitiful Autobot-"

"So why didn't you kill him?" XR pointed out. "I mean I may not know you at all but I know when you love someone you do anything to save them. You could have killed him but deep down you love him."

Starscream glares but decided to change the subject.

"Where are you from?"

XR frowns at the change of subject. "Well that's kinda hard to say."

"Well not knowing would have been dreadful but seeing fragments of the energy remnants, making the machine would be about a year or two unless who ever was stupid would open it again."

XR took a moment and hope Nos was alright.

'Probably just worrying about my safety…'

Meanwhile…

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHERE HE IS?! YOU BETTER FIX THIS LIGHTYEAR! Nos growls as he lifted Buzz about a few feet above the ground.

Buzz was the first to say XR was alright only for booster to tell Nos between shakes XR was taken by a large hand. He did not take it so easy.

"Nos we're going to open the portal again." Buzz stated. "I will-"

"I will go and get him!" Nos cut him off. "I can sense XR's energy reading and find him!" He hisses dropping him. "You just keep the portal open."

One of the LGMs came up to him and holds out a device akin to a watch.

"In case if portal closes."

Nos nodded and places it on his wrist. The portal opens and Nos zooms in and enters the portal. He finds himself in some kind of indoor courtyard and it was quite huge. He looks around but nothing. He tried to sense him but nothing. It was as if his signal was hidden. Nos floated around and saw large claw marks and hoped his mate was not destroyed. Just when he was ready to leave, he sensed a large mass of energies were coming up and saw it was a large robotic dinosaurs.

"Why is it I enter in some kind of dangerous room…" he mumbles as the t-rex came up to him.

"Me grimlock smell an unknown stranger."

Nos raises an imaginary brow and saw him coming close.

"Is stranger a new Autobot? How tiny you are." the large t-rex spoke.

"I am not an autobo-"

"Me thinks he's Decepticon!"

Nos looks to the pterodactyl and tilt his head.

"I am not a decepticon either. I came-"

"Grimlock says he's not! He smells like us! He is kin." Grimlock spoke.

"Kin?" Nos asked.

Grimlock nodded. "Grimlock smell you are bat. Bat smells like we."

Nos took a moment and realized what the meant.

"How do you know what I am when we just met?"

"We just know. Grimlock sees bat are like we. Bat are like dinobots."

Nos understood what this Grimlock meant and he was for once touched to find a sense of relation of what kind he his with another. 'I will not have to explain what I am.'

"Thank you. May I ask for your help?"

"Yes bat! Dinobots will help bat find what you're looking for!"

Nos shows a hologram of XR. "Have you seen him?"

Grimlock and the others knelt down and sniffed him and shook his head.

"Grimlock have not seen bat's mate here. Grimlock doesn't smell him here."

Nos looks down hurt.

"but we know bat's mate is in decepticon base!"

Nos perked at this. "Is he safe there?!" Nos asked.

Grimlock and the other dinobots were quiet.

"Hard to say." the pterodactyl spoke.

Nos frowns, "If you may, may I bite you and download about these decepticons?"

Grimlock change and was different from a dinosaur but Nos was not shocked.

Grimlock held out his hand and Nos bit into his large palm and was reading and understanding the difference between sides and he had to admit despite the lack of proper speech, they are very smart. Nos pulls back retracting his fangs but had fall back a bit from the amount of data and unknown energy he took.

"Kin?!"

Nos couldn't react as he fell down and was in sleep mode.

XR shook a bit and for a moment he felt worried about Nos.

"What's wrong? Feeling nervous being in an underwater base?"

"It's not that, I thought I felt Nos." XR replied.

"Who is this Nos?" Starscream asked.

"He's my boyfriend well he calls me his mate-"

"Did you interface with him? Share a connection?"

XR was redder by the second as he tried to not to stutter.

"So you are his mate. Why deny it and not just admit it?"

"It's complicated and well every time I want to him that I get my tongue literally twisted and well I get really shy. I'm not ready to call him that especially when we're not married."

Starscream looked to the small robot and in some bizarre way, he understood. "Tell me than, what kind of robot is he? Sounds interesting to pass the time." Starscream added as he was doing the math and figuring out the schematics.

"He's an energy vampire." XR blushes.

Starscream stopped for a moment and looks to him in surprised. "You're joking right? You mate yourself to an energy sucker. Practically to a predator."

"Hey he's really sweet! I mean yeah he was made to destroy Buzz but he didn't want that! He doesn't like to fight unless he has to and he's overprotective of me and everyone he cares about." XR hated that nickname people say that behind his back. Ever since Nos ranaway for the first time after that cargo ship incident, he was called by that from everyone. XR hated the times some people would go out of their way to hurt his boyfriend.

Starscream was surprised by the outburst. "You are quite defensive about him."

"It's because I love him.

"I'm curious how you two met. Were you some kind of enemies?"

"Not exactly. We met when he was transported in a cargo ship. It was at first a ruse to get us to take the cargo with us before the ship exploded and luckily we did. At that time the commander ordered me to check the large cargo box. I did check on it and that's when I saw him, coming out of the coffin shape box. I was scared for my life and so was Nos. He had to calm me down using hypnosis but it didn't last long much because either he was uncomfortable or I broke out of it. Anyways, Nos was asking to leave and he didn't want to bite the ship or else he would take too much energy. I was going to let him but I asked him why he wanted to leave. He told me he didn't want to attack star command and has been hoping to leave out of planet Z. I told him he can stay at star command and if not he can leave and I won't tell anyone about him. It surprised me when he chose to stay. We became friends and every chance we had, we hung out. But later on in two years, I found out he loved me." XR smiles and remember that moment.

"Was it awkward?" Starscream asked.

XR took a moment.

"Well it wasn't awkward per say, we were dancing around each other and neither of us didn't want to be awkward. You see Nos was made by this evil emperor name Zurg so when he defected to our side after running away, everyone didn't think twice shooting him but they didn't because I protected him. When I fell for him I was scared he would think lesser of me or thought I was using him."

Starscream nodded. "In war both sides uses one another's feelings for benefit of winning. Your so called leader must have had hoped for this to insure your mate would be controlled."

"Well your not far from that but I put my foot down when he was going to force Nos to work for them in doing things he was uncomfortable with. I argued to the point I was suspended for a month."

"That is unreasonable punishment but it is better than not leaving the base. If I don't get to fly, I'd go crazy." Starscream spoke.

"Yeah but Nos made my month worthwhile by taking me to the museum of parts and other places " XR smiles, "He always makes me smile."

Starscream was a bit surprised. "This Nos, how did he do it?"

"Well there were various ways that he told me but I was really oblivious from him."

"Your as dense as skyfire, he couldn't tell the difference when someone asked him on a date."

"Hey if any constellation, Nos was patient with me when I realized how much I really loved him."

"... So from your experience, if you were more understanding, you would been with him earlier."

"Pretty much but it's not just patience or understanding, if you really love someone, you have to trust them with everything.

EVERYTHING." XR repeated once more.

Starscream nodded as he continued.

Meanwhile

Nos slowly woke up and sat up from a large table, remembering what happened. He tried to float up but fell back. He was confused until he saw his lower form was not exactly the same.

Nos lifted one of his legs and was confused.

"Good you're awake. I was worried you weren't alright."

Nos looked to see another robot the size of a cruiser.

"Now let me start by introducing myself I'm ratchet the doctor of this base. Now can you tell me who you are?"

Nos was staring down at him despite the lack of size.

"Look I have other patients to care for and your not making my job any easier."

Nos hisses at him.

"Look I am not in the mood for you acting like a little sparkling so please give me a reason to smash you with my wrenches!"

Nos growls but sees another two mechs enter in.

"Prime!" The said doctor saluted and saw the red and blue robot nodded.

"Ratchet what seems to be the problem? He doesn't seem harmful."

"This little mech is giving me nothing but growls and hisses and all I want to know if he has any internal damages. Every time I tried to do a scan, it shows up nothing."

The tallest white mechas Nos can understand from the database Grimlock given, skyfire, walks up to him.

"Hello I am skyfire, what is your name?" he held his hand to him.

Nos sensing no malice or annoyance towards him, held one of the fingers.

"Salutations, I am Nos-4-a2."

Ratchet seeing and hearing everything glared but was stopped by optimus. He walks up next to skyfire and held his hand.

"I am Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots. We defend the earth-"

"-From destruction and enslavement by decepticons. Apologies, I was able to absorb the information by the one name Grimlock. He was kind to allow me and was more mannered than your doctor."

Optimus was amazed and nodded.

"Excuse me?! I was considerate to introduce myself and not just squash you."

"Forgive me but the last time I was to be check by a doctor, he attempted to tear me apart and tried to sell me in the black market." Nos growls.

"It is alright," Optimus spoke, stopping ratchet from acting out. "Please understand he isn't negative towards you but there are two young twins who tends to get on his nerves and earlier they rushed in and toppled over his tools."

Nos nodded.

Ratchet sighs and looks to Nos.

"May I please do a scan to help make certain your not overstressing or anything awful."

Nos eyed him a bit and nodded and mentally turns off the program. Just when he thought he could stand, he fell.

"Are you alright?" Skyfire asked.

"I am not use to moving with these limbs."

Ratchet presses a button and the scan began and he saw it was odd.

"Interesting, based on the scans your inner parts are mending and adapting from the energy and programs you collected from Grimlock. Your legs must be the results from the changes."

Nos looks to the new change and frowns. "Will I be able to revert them back?"

"Yes and luckily it's a basic lesson. First relax and clear your thought process."

Nos took a moment and relax.

"Now think of your lower forms and wait for a moment."

Nos closes his eyes and waited and felt his legs morphs into each other and he had his lower form back.

Nos smiles and stood up floating.

Ratchet couldn't help but smile at this but shook it away. "So may I ask how your able to do this?"

Nos held his arm but he saw skyfire reassuring and proceeded. "I am an energy vampire that absorbs energy but I can also access mainframes and systems which is why I was able to take the program."

Ratchet was shocked to hear what he just said. "I heard of human vampires and bats but a vampire for mechs! Now I've seen it all." Ratchet threw his arms up.

Nos frowns in hurt. "I am use to being given that reaction of distaste from star command and by many who are more worse."

Ratchet froze and tried to stop it from getting worse. "I didn't mean it in a bad way! You see we transformers or robots transforms into vehicles and in some way dinobots but there has never been any other kind like you so it was a surprise. Where are you from?"

Nos held his head, "I am from another universe. I am here to find my mate after being taken from a large hand."

"We will help you find your mate. May I ask how do they look like?"skyfire asked.

Nos showed them an image of XR and optimus nodded.

"We will help any way we can." the Autobot leader spoke and Nos nodded.

"Sir may I take care of Nos-4-a2? I can show him around." skyfire asked and Optimus nodded.

Nos saw skyfire held his hand out and Nos float to his hand and skyfire walked out of the med bay.

"Welcome to the Armada Nos-4-a2."

Skyfire smiles and Nos frowns as his lower form shifted to legs once more.

"You'll get used to it with practice. It took me a while when I was a sparkling."

Nos frowns and lowers his head down when he knew what he meant. "I do not know what it is like to be a sparkling. I was made already to be an adult."

Skyfire frowns but then thought of his friend. "My friend Starscream is like you. He was made already to be a soldier but he chose to be a scientist. That's how I met him."

Nos looks to the said space shuttle and sensed he was happy and sad.

"Where is your friend?" Nos asked and Skyfire frowns. "He became a decepticon after I disappeared in the glaciers. I was frozen there for nearly over millions of years."

Nos notice for a moment Skyfire was sadder than before.

"May I ask what your friend did…?" Nos did not feel comfortable in asking.

"I found out from articles, Starscream still intended to find me but it hurts me that he almost died trying to find me and was accused for a lot of terrible accusations."

Nos read according to Grimlock gave him and he furrowed. "He shot you when you chose to not."

"I know but it does not change that he's still my friend. I know Starscream and there has to be a reason why he did what he did."

Nos then looks more into the decepticon descriptions but there was little about Starscream aside being second in command and engineering and a scientist of other fields.

"What is your friend like?"

Skyfire smiles. "He's headstrong and smart and he can be kind when you get to know him but he's also hard to talk to because he prefers having a conversation without having the person fall asleep or getting lost and he's hard to befriend but he is really a good guy."

Skyfire continues on and Nos notice the way he spoke so much of him.

"But one thing I do know is-"

"You miss him but more than as a friend." Nos stated and skyfire was shocked.

Nos smiles at the thought of XR. "The first time I have met XR, he was scared of me. I reassured him I did not wish to harm him by using hypnosis to calm him down but he somehow turned it off and it amazes me but at the time I only wish to leave and be left alone but XR did not and instead gave me a choice to stay and have a safe place or I can leave and he would not tell anyone about me. I was surprised even more when I agreed to stay. He protected me through the years and I fell in love with him, my friend."

Skyfire was surprised. "Did you tell him you love him?" He asked.

"I gave small hints to him but I was afraid he would not accept. I am happy we are together now but… I fear at any moment he may regret."

"I doubt he'll say that or believe it because the way you talk about him and well I think he loves you."

"Thank you."

"Is he in human terms your husband, boyfriend, or lover?" Skyfire was a bit awkward in asking.

"To me he is my mate and he calls me his boyfriend although we have done more in the night as a married couple would enact."

Skyfire was a bit flustered and looks away. "Why does he calls you his boyfriend?"

"Well for one he is not like me who was built like an animal. The second he is too shy to call me that."

Skyfire nodded. "Why do you call him your mate?"

"Because he is my one and only." Nos stated and smiled.

Skyfire smiles but see Nos giving him a calculated look. "I think I can understand your love interest's reason. In the line of war when you love and have loyalty it would either end kill or be killed and he did not wish to see you die so he 'shot' you to make certain you would be saved by the Autobots. I would have done so if it meant giving my mate a chance of freedom. If I were in your shoes I would talk to him where no one could see you." Nos spoke.

Skyfire took it to word and decided to do something.

Meanwhile.

Starscream brought an energon drink with him to gives it to XR to help him replenish himself.

"Rustolian oil is not part of supplies so hopefully this will suffice."

XR was surprised by the large glass drink and luckily had the cup Nos gave him and gotten a good fill amount from it. He scoops some of the liquid and drank it all up. "It tastes odd."

"Beggars can't be choosers and here in this universe there is a limit here of this amount."

XR understood a bit and drank some more. "It's like Nos with energy but its hard for him keeping a storage of energy but this stuff might be another source to help him. Can I keep some of this stuff? The LGMs could make this stuff I mean they made this unimind core I have."

"In term a spark. I did a scan and it is a surprise that is almost close to our tech. If your LGMs are capable to replicate this without harm… give it to the Autobots."

XR raises a brow. "Why not you? You can make a difference and that leader would be thanking you for saving them time and from killing a planet."

"You seen it happen with Megatron, he no longer care for the well being of no one anymore! It is horrible I lost the only friend and I lost what it means to be a scientist by reanimating and creating the constructicon bots to a living destruction. If I can at least help make a difference for others, why not?" Starscream look down in shame.

XR frowns,

"I wish I was an Autobot. I wish I could have seen through that frag's lies. I just wish I can tell my friend how much I miss him and how much I wish we could go back to before." Starscream wanted to cry but held it in.

XR pats the elbow and gave a reassuring smile.

"Hey it's ok. We make mistakes but you can fix it still I mean he may forgive you and I bet he misses you too."

Starscream look to him and for once smiles.

XR senses someone coming and hid behind one of the large gadgets.

Starscream grabbed the nearest project and studied it as he sees Megatron's henchmen shockwave enter the room.

"I bear news."

"Well must be a grand one considering your more annoying than my voice." Starscream spoke.

"We have an intruder and according to Soundwave it is an odd one."

Starscream paid no mind and continues to work on the small machine.

"... Lord Megatron wants to talk to you about finding the intruder."

Starscream glares but places the machine down but took a moment to give XR a sign to stay hidden.

"You know shockwave for a one eyed optic frag you have such keen outlook yet you cannot catch nor figure out through the most densest walls of your own ego."

"Flattery with little effort, charming." Shockwave waited for him to leave, unbeknownst XR slid behind the back of the desk and hid behind a large berth.

The minute Starscream left, shockwave looks around the room to scan for any traces.

"It is best you come out and speak to our lord and savior Megatron and if you comply he may find use for youin our glorious empire."

XR shudder from the thought of being a target practice.

"Hmm, seems as though Starscream is just a lunatic." And shockwave left. XR sighed in relief but the minute he turned he saw a robotic panther.

"Eeeek!" XR jumped back and shook in fear but saw it transforms.

"Are you XR?" He asked.

XR nodded.

"There is someone looking for you from your universe. He goes by Nos-4-a2?"

XR was surprised and happy but paused.

"Tell me what does he look like?" He asked.

The said transformer took a moment and shrug. "Only my creator soundwave has seen him when he gotten a message from blaster. He is really trusting since blaster doesn't lie. Will you come with me?"

XR took a moment. "Under conditions you and your creator doesn't say anything about this and Starscream comes with me. Sorry but so far I only trust him."

Ravage nodded and waited for Starscream to come.

Starscream came in but with a busted optic and a few dents.

"Blasted arrogant…" Starscream mumbles and sees XR with ravage.

"I have a feeling you will get home sooner than later."

"What happened to you?!"

"I got in a fight with that slag Megatron. He said a harmful comment about Skyfire and I punched him. He punched me back and then some more, humiliating me for the sake of it."

XR frowns. "Why don't you leave this place? Go somewhere better?"

"What other places are there?! My home is already destroyed by both sides! The Autobots despises me and my friend…. Where would I even go?"

XR then remembers Nos words when they first met.

"I get it, it hurts to think that there is no where else but it's not safe to live here! You can find a place to go and call it home. Please help me and think this through, you have a choice!" XR looks to Starscream.

Starscream was quiet but grabbed for him to place him in his cockpit.

"Let's head to Soundwave." He held his hand out for ravage and he did so. Starscream made his way to Soundwave when Megatron appeared along with shockwave who was scanning him and Starscream knew they were screwed.

"I see you have found our little guest." Shockwave stated.

Starscream froze a bit but saw Soundwave coming up.

"Status: Starscream has found my ravage and its souvenir."

Megatron raises a brow and forces Starscream cockpit open to see a boom box. Starscream kept quiet as Megatron studies it.

"I found it in the ocean floor my Lord and cleaned it up. It is nothing of value so i ask Starscream to see what it is."

Megatron looks to him. "Is this true?" Megatron asked.

"Affirmative." Soundwave stated. "Ravage is still a young mechling."

Megatron throws it to Starscream and he walks away.

Shockwave however stood there.

"You will regret this Starscream, if I find out your real plan, you will regret it. Both of you."

And he left.

Soundwave nodded to Starscream and he lead the seeker to the comm. Room.

"Alright you can transform back now." but nothing.

"Yeah it seems I can't…. What do I do?" XR was now in a panic.

"Calm down for one." Starscream scowl, annoyed by the panicked now small boom box.

"Concentrate on original form." Soundwave added.

XR was now back to normal.

"Whew! That was really weird. Cool but weird." XR was confused how it happened.

"The energon must have changed your systems." Starscream did a scan and saw there was small change but his unimind was the same as before but a bit bigger. Shaking the confusion, Starscream began to type away a special code to the Autobots base.

"I am using an old code only skyfire knows. Hopefully he remembers." And it sends. "I will be heading out by myself Soundwave."

"Negative."

"It is better this way and besides it will be only one traitor than two." Starscream places XR inside and heads out.

Megatron however was hiding by the entrance and saw Starscream leaving and follows behind in a good distance.

Blaster who was waiting by the comm. Gets a message from Soundwave along with a code.

"Message only Skyfire knows…" He frowns and sees Skyfire was surprised.

"I know where he wants to meet. Let's go Nos."

Nos nodded as he and Skyfire leaves.

Blaster smiles and gets a private live feed.

"Soundwave you know we can't have fun this way but you are pretty kinky."

"Blaster this is important. They are in danger."

Blaster was surprised and nods but stops.

"Can we meet up for a wild time?"

And Soundwave ends transmission.

Blaster frowns but knew what was at stakes.

Starscream lands in the arctic glaciers.

XR comes out and was surprised.

"Wow! That was an amazing ride!" XR smiles and treads through the snow but realizes where they were.

"Why here?"

"Privacy."

And soon enough XR senses Nos and he smiles and sees the shuttle come down along with transforming and he sees Nos flying down to him.

"Nos-!"

Crash!

XR didn't have a chance as Nos was kissing him.

Nos holds him close,

"Nos-mmm I'm-mmph!" XR kept being caught off and it didn't help Nos was making it hard. When Nos finally stopped, XR was too dazed from the kisses.

"I was worried about you XR!" Nos holds him close.

"I-"

"I don't care about who is at fault! I am just relieved you are alright."

XR was quiet and couldn't help but remember that talk from earlier.

Nos purrs but sees XR holds him in a tighter hold.

Nos pulls away tilts his head but sees XR smiles.

"I know it's hard to say it but your my-" he looks to Nos and turns red.

"My…. My-" XR tucks his head by Nos neck.

Nos nuzzles to him and purrs. "It is alright love, you are my one and only," Nos purrs, "I am your mate as you are mine." Nos purrs and and XR smiles.

Starscream looks to his friend and was ready to leave if his hands was not in a grip.

"Starscream."

The seeker looks to him nervously.

"Yes…?" He asked.

"Starscream I…. I know what you did before was wrong but to me I believe you did it to protect me. Thank you."

Starscream was surprised and looks to him. "I knew you couldn't do it and I knew the Autobots will provide a better care."

"Starscream I want to tell you-"

"Please, do not say it." Starscream interjected.

"Why can I not?" Skyfire was hurt by this.

"I am a decepticon or was and even if I defect to an Autobot, I will never be accepted by them or by anyone for that matter."

"They will be open to it and if not, where will you go?"

"I do not know to be honest. We have traveled so many worlds… I cannot let you give up your home-"

"But it is not. Starscream you know me very well that our homes are long gone, I know that very well and to be honest, I feel more home with you by my side as I am by your side. Please do not push me away as you have before. I love you."

Starscream was sad for a moment and looks away.

"I knew you were weak Starscream but now you are pathetic!"

Starscream looks up and glares down at Megatron as he came down.

"Tell me Starscream what should I do with you? Should I torture you or give you a chance once again to redeem yourself." He points to XR whereas Nos stood in front and growls. "Destroy those two or your enemy. Either way someone will fall." Starscream looks to them and held his blaster gun up.

XR was hurt as Nos holds him protectively but Skyfire stood tall. " I believe in you Starscream." He smiles.

Starscream readies his weapons.

"Starscream will do nothing but obey me! Shoot your enemies-"

Bam!

Megatron was shot by Starscream.

"I shot my enemy and that is you. XR! Get you and your mate out of here now!"

XR froze, worried what will happen.

"We'll be fine! Go!"

XR nodded and treads away but stops to realize Nos didn't move.

"Come on-!" He was shocked to see Nos lower form had split into legs! Shaking away the unnecessary thoughts and holds him up as Nos presses a button and they went into the portal. XR crashed onto the floor but made sure Nos didn't got hurt.

"XR!" All his teammates ran to his side and helped him up along with Nos.

"Are you two ok?!" Mira helps Nos up and was surprised the new change.

"We are alright Mira." Nos smiles as XR got up and helps Nos stand up. "We were helping a couple get together. Also if you guys can," he passes the sample of the energon to the LGMs, "can you try to replicate this?"

"Yeeeeeeees." They said altogether.

"Now since this was a success, I'm taking my mate to relax. See ya." XR treads away with Nos learning to walk.

Nos was grinning happily and XR was confused until he realized what he said. He blushes away and Nos purrs. "I love too."

Meanwhile in the infirmary,

Starscream waited by Skyfire as he was scanned for any damages.

"So far none that I can see. Come by in a few earth days and I'll do another check up."

Skyfire nods and leads Starscream out.

"You could always work with me Starscream." Skyfire smiles shyly.

Starscream smiles and remembered what XR spoke. "Skyfire." He spoke.

Skyfire looks to him surprised.

"I know I am not even close to be forgiven but i wish to tell you I- I truly-" he looks away, he couldn't say it to him without blushing away.

Skyfire smiles and lowers down and kisses his cheek.

"We can take it slow."Star command.
