Megatron's twin

36:Fix the Crack

After narrowly avoiding Arcee I flew off to wherever Shockwave's lab was. It wasn't to hard to find, I headed in the right direction and the Nemisis came into view. It was big after all.

I headed down to the caves I had left and transformed as I neared the ground.

I snuck forward into the tunnels as silent as possible. Picking the right path, I got to the lab. Shockwave was at the monitor at the end, typing away.

I scampered to one of the tanks, where I hid.

Hiding behind a simi transparent object... Smart.

I made my way forward, from one tank to the next.

Finally I made it to the cracked one, I could fix it!

Bad news though... I needed to get out of my hiding spot, and if Shockers turned he would see me instantly.

Quietly I tip toed to the crack and got out the duct tape.

There was a problem, my digits were rather big for it. Non the less I struggled to get the end. Once I did, a small ripping sound made me flinch.

Hopefully Shockwave didn't hear.

I got to work taping up the cracks on the tank. Stopping only to look back at my good work, I put the tape into my subspace and glanced over to Shockwave.

He wasn't there.

I went into a state of mild panic.

Then I turned.

The lone red optic of death stared holes into my spark as it's owner stood there still.

I sprinted to my freedom and out the cavern.

The science guy can't sprint this fast!

I made it to the open and risked a glance back... No one. So I ran for nothing.

I transformed and flew up to the ship.

I clumsily landed, stumbling a few steps before the Predacon caught my optic. Sleeping.

He seemed to be in a good mood, even asleep. I snuck over to him and tapped his snout, he turned his helm over and snored.

He's a deep sleeper, or he's pretending. I glanced at his chompers and turned his helm back over.

I decided to take out the high grade from my subspace and stack em on his snout. Like Optimus said he did with the data pads.

I made a tower of ten cubes and the Predacon still didn't wake up.

"What are you doing?" A whisper came from behind me, it was Knockout.

"Having fun?"

"Do you want him to kill you?" He whispered shouted back.

"No?" What was I supposed to say? Yes?

He blinked the pushed me away from the cutie. "What are you doing?" I asked, grinning at the small bot trying to push my mass.

"Saving your life, let's go before he wakes up." He explained as I let him push me along.

"Okie."

"Besides, it's late, we all need recharge." He grumbled as he pushed me into the hallways.

"Okay, okay. I can walk." I shrugged him off.

He narrowed his optics suspiciously, "fine." He shrugged and set off, leaving me alone. I set of for my berthroom, passing my brothers as I did so.

I stopped before the door as I heard his voice.

"Soundwave, put your tentacles away." He growled lowly.

Okay...

Well whatever is going on in there, I want no part in. Best just to go to sleep and forget it... Or use it as blackmail.

I shrugged as I continued to skip to my berth, once I got there I fell onto the berth and hoped tomorrow would go more smoothly.

I awoke because noisy troops were stomping past my berthroom. So I decided to stomp past others berthrooms.

Megatron's berthroom was closest, so I went there. As I neared his door I halted to figure out how to make the most noise.

I could get some troops over here, or stomp, or jump!

I decided to jump, letting my large mass to make the noise. I was louder than I thought, making loud clangs.

I felt annoyance come through the bond I shared with Megs and grinned in amusement, sending a wave of confusion aswell.

I then jumped higher and got closer to the door.

I heard a growl from the door.

What's wrong? I asked innocently.

Some aft is making a racket outside my berth. He sethed back.

Oh? I grinned as I tried to make even more noise.

Unfortunately, over the sounds I was making, I did not hear Megatron approach the door. I got I right shock when he grabbed me tightly by the shoulders and locked me in place.

He glared into my soul.

I let of a nervous grin before he hissed, "we wouldn't want to repeat the events of yesterday, now, would we?"

My optics bulged. "Nope, sorry, have a good day!" I said and freed myself, bowing low and muttering, "oh thank you, merciful lord."

He rolled his optics and I ran off grinning. Hearing a faint "go frag yourself."

Off to the Predacon I guess.

I skipped up to the main deck and spotted the Predacon where he last lay. He was asleep, with my masterpiece displayed beautifully.

However as I neared he opened his optics, making me believe he wasn't asleep in the first place. He cast me a glare as if to ask 'this was your fault, wasn't it.'

I giggled but fright went through me as he moved slightly.

"Break the tower and I will beat your aft to the sun and back." I threatened.

He growled.

"To the moon and back." I corrected, falling victim to his glare.

Non the less he tossed them off with a shake of his helm, earning a disarrayed yelp from me.

Grudgingly I got to work on picking the cubes up and sticking them in my subspace, "trying to push my buttons, are you?"

I heard the sound of transfomation from his direction and glanced up to see what was happening.

Huh...

Well I didn't know he would look THAT good.
