In Between S2-> S3(Megatron X OC X Optimus)

Hurt (3)

ShiverTooth's Perspective

            Hardshell was walking with me and telling other insecticons about what happened on his mission. "You should have seen the wrecker's face as his spark expired, knowing that he perished at the hands of a true warrior." We passed some vehicons and Hardshell continues "Lord Megatron now understands that the difficult tasks are best assigned to an insecticon." The guards converse behind us "Pit bound scavengers." "Scrap eaters." My insecticon friend whips around "What did you say?"

                 I try to stop him "Hardshell, easy. Let me talk—" "No. they need to be taught a lesson." He interupts and charges at them. I cover my optics and listen to the vehicons yells and shots. Knockout then asks "How am i supposed to concentrate when.... *gasp* AHHHH!!!!"  A vehicon hits the wall and stands up again. Hardshell charges at him and the bot moves, causing Knockout to get hit. When he collects himself, he shouts "I JUST BUFFED THAT!!!" I role my optics and Hardshell raises his claws again. I run between them and grab Hardshell's helm, and using my powers. He stops and falls backwards. Knockout scooted away from me "How.... In the Universe.... did you do that?" He asks, full of fear. I shake my servo "I told you, I have powers." My optics return to red and Hardshell stands up. He looks at me and starts to crawl backwards, scared. "Hardshell, I'm sorry!!!" I yell as he transforms and flies away. I sigh "Great...."

               The intercom goes off "Knockout and ShiverTooth to the bridge. I repeat, Knockout and ShiverTooth to the bridge." I bite my derma "Fffffffffffffff...."

               The whole walk there, Knockout was whimpering in fear. He was still shocked that I could do that. We got there and I was the first in. Hardshell stepped backwards and was shaking as I walked near him. Knockout stands on the other side and I hold my hands out Hardshell. Knockout went on "Just look what they've done!!" Megatron sighs "Spare me the dramatics, Knockout. It is merely a scratch." Hardshell rests his helm against my servo and calms down. "I didn't mean to scare you." I say, pressing my helm to his and rubbing his cheek. He purrs lightly, his mandibles shaking. Knockout continues "This isn't about me, Lord Megatron!! The insecticons are creating dissension among the ranks. These savages are a threat to this warship and its crew!! They should be confined, restrained!!!" Hardshell growls and steps away from me, coming up on Knockout! "You could not produce restraints strong enough to hold us."

            Just then, a guard calls to my liege. "Lord Megatron. We're receiving an emergency transmission from mine TV c15." Megs replies "What seems to be the problem." The guard answers "Unclear, my liege. The caller will speak only to you." Megatron walks over and presses the com "What is it?" The mech answers "Nice operation you got here, Megatron. Although technically, you might say it's under new management." I tense up and step backwards, my helm going light. Megatron responds "Wheeljack. The one who enjoys explosive devices."

Wheeljack goes on "what can I say, Chief? I'm uncouth, and right now I'm sitting on top of one of your big, juicy mining ops." Megatron declares "The loss of one assets is hardly a blow to the decepticon cause." The autobot replies "Maybe, but I'm gonna keep on hitting em; one by one, until you give me what I want." Megs responds "And what pray tell would that be?" The wrecker answers "The bot who changed ShiverTooth, and the insecticon scum who tried to frag Bulkhead." Lord Megatron replies "My seeker has always been the way he—- wait... Tried? Are you saying the autobot lives?" Hardshell panics "H-he is bluffing!!!" Jackie continues "Wouldn't bet on it, so here's the deal: I'm gonna transmit the coordinates of my next target. If Hardshell and the other bot care to meet me there, maybe they can save you from another loss. And Megatron, just in case you ever wondered what 3 tons of exploding energon sounds like...." an explosion sounds and the com hangs up.

Megatron growls "You allowed the autobot TO LIVE!!!???" Knockout laughs "Hm! Bugs. Not all they're cracked up to be." I elbow his shoulder and my insecticon friend pleads "Lord Megatron, I swear upon the allspark!!! The autobot could not have survived his wounds!!!" My liege nears him and commands "Then you owe me a spark, and if it's not the one belonging to Bulkhead, then it better be Wheeljacks!!!"

My spark skips a pulse and I gasp breathlessly, then slowly breathing "No." I say. Megatron looks back to me "Why not?" He growls, thinking I was worried about the autobot. I argue "Wheeljack is my enemy. I told you before." My liege calms and argues "That was a long time ago. Hardshell is a lot stronger than twice your level and has severely harmed a friend of his recently. He also promised that he killed them. If the wrecker manages to survive, which I sincerely doubt, you may fight him as you please." I sigh and nod, and Hardshell is sent off.
