Secrets [Transformer Prime]

6 ~ Intern ~ 6

Narrator's POV

It was a shady day, there was little light but you could still see it, a certain Spider and her friend were in the latter's apartment, the Seeker was busy obsessively ordering the kitchen, while Airachnid was bored on the sofa

Airachnid: listen Mega, my love situation sucks and this was known, but yours instead?

The Seeker flared up at the introduction of that topic

Megabite: I have no particular interest...

Airachnid: come on, who is your knight?

Magabite: I wouldn't call him "my knight"

Airachnid: and how would you define it?

Megabite: more like ... my Gladiator-

Airachnid: DO YOU LIKE HIM!?

Megabite: w-wasn't it obvious?

Airacnid: You'll have to fight with her fans to get there

Megabite: nah, I just need to be happy and I will be too, after all this means to love... but forget it

Airachnid: By the way, a certain Knowkout called me just yesterday and told me to tell you to be found at 5 o'clock in the Kaon arena

Megabite: what will that idiot have in mind?

Airachnid: I don't know but it sounds very romantic, especially when we think back to who your crush is

Megabite: it's not that important-!

Airachnid: how not!? YOU HAVE TO GO!

Megabite: okay okay, I'll go there

A pain in the side caused the awakening of the Seeker, who accidentally fell from his beloved bed pulling down all the saints as he heard humans do, and it is liberating, the Decepticon got up, going to the control room, as soon as he entered he bowed to the his lord, strictly turned from the back, awaiting orders

Starscream: my Lord ...

Megatron: Have you fully recovered?

The Seeker lied, he couldn't sit idle, Megatron would just get more impatient, so he assured Lord Megatron that he was completely healed, the Mach continued the dialogue

Megatron: the space bridge?

Starscream: it's almost finished, the Autobots have not discovered our position thankfully

Megatron: I have decided to remove you from the field, you will stay on the Nemesis

Starscream: Sir, I don't understand why

Megatron: We both know you haven't really fully recovered, so since you're capable of hurting yourself even while standing still you'll stay on the Nemesis assisting Knockout and Shockwave

Starscream: I understand and accept my Lord's order

Megatron: As if I could refuse, now go

The Seeker left the control room quite annoyed but headed to the Knockout laboratory anyway, on the way he met her again

Starscream: Airachnid

Airachnid: Starscream

Starscream: I hope you have solved the matter

Airachnid: I'm working on it

Starscream: if you want to talk... I'm there

The Femme looked up in shock at Starscream's unusual behavior, but let her feelings go for once and flung herself into her arms, as the Seeker reminded her too much of her friend, Starscream was shocked but returned the gesture of affection feeling that she really needed it

Starscream: calm down, it's not like you to let yourself go to the emotions

The Seeker felt the metal of her chest get wet with something, he looked down and in shock he noticed that they were the tears of Airachnid

Starscream: A-Airachnid

Airachnid: You're right, it's not like me to let myself go with the feelings

Starscream: are you better?

Airachnid: Yes, it was liberating

Starscream: I have to go, I have to be Laboratory assistant at Knockout and Shockwave

Airachnid: what an agony, hearing talk about logic all the time

Starscream: Not to mention when Shockwave gets their hands on Knockout's paint

Airachnid: it will be the ruckus

The two Decepticons laughed unconsciously, but Airachnid was surprised at how harmonious the features of Starscream's smile were, it really looks like Megabite, saying goodbye they parted and the Seeker arrived quite quickly in the Knockout laboratory, where he found the doctor and the scientist intent on some experiment

Starscream: Unfortunately Lord Megatron has turned me into your assistant

Knoukout: Oh really? Incidentally, we needed a "victim" for this new prototype

Starscream: .................... no

Shockwave: Surrendering to Lord Megatron's orders is the most logical choice

Starscream: logic is not always the best thing, instinct also exists

Knoukout: Starscream stop complaining and come here!

Starscream: but why don't you use the Veicons as "victim"?

Knoukout: ...... I hadn't thought of that

Starscream: Speaking the language of Shockwave, it makes much more sense to sacrifice a low-ranking soldier than the second-in-command

Shockwave: This reasoning is logical

Starscream: now, do you have anything else where I can help you or can I go back to my cock?

The scientist thought of a question, the Seeker in front of him reminded him of one of the students who carried out their internship at his laboratory

Shockwave: Starscream, do you know a certain Megabite?

The Seeker lied, omitting dreams and everything else, then going to rest in his quarters, the scientist instead was questioned by the doctor present there

Knoukout: how do you know Megabite?

Shockwave: She was my Intern

Knoukout: alone?

Shockwave: well... it is logical to think that between us there was nothing more than a Chief-Intern relationship but we were more intimate

The scientist reflects on his words for a second, then blushes and corrects himself

Shockwave: N-not in that sense of course, we were more friends than anything else

Knoukout: She was great

Shockwave: classmate in medical school?

Knoukout: Yes, we were best friends, she was good at everything

Shockwave: She was extremely smart and capable, but she was just too naive

Knoukout: She could see for a mile that she liked her

Shockwave: It was logical, looking at his behavior

Knoukout: It's nice to talk about the past, but sorry, now I absolutely have to polish the body

Shockwave: It is illogical to take such good care of your image

Knoukout: BUT ILLOGICAL YOU WILL BE!

While the two geniuses argued, the Seeker was gently falling asleep in his bed, lulled by a strange melody that for some reason reminded him of Cybertron, but he couldn't know what would actually happen shortly thereafter...
