Gold was bored, Again. Everyone was sleeping! Breakdown left. It was soo boring! So he left, again.

And got lost again. But that was okay, because he was looking for his friend, and he found his friend last time by being lost. So being lost was not so bad because if he was lost, he was on the right course.

But if being lost was the right course, then he wasn't lost. But he needed to be lost! Gold stopped, he had a helm ache. He should really stop thinking.

But then he spotted a vent, a melted vent. His methods worked! He scrambled through the vent and got lost, but that was good. Then he emerged on the other side.

But the berthroom was empty! Gold sat down angrily and sulked. Where else would his friend be?

In the command unit? Yes. Gold jumped up and scrambled back through the vents. He made it to the hallways, then he realised, he had no idea where the command unit is.

He sat down and sulked for a bit before he got up and ran through the hallways. It was exhausting work but he was also mapping out the hallways in his helm. It was giving him a helmache but it was going to be worth it.

He stopped at a door which opened once he got close. So these doors had motion sensors! He waddled in and got under a table, due to the Bots in the room.

"Huh?" A heeled mech muttered as he approached the door and looked outside.

"Distracted Screamer?" A feminine voice asked.

"Well, the doors don't normally open on their own." He argued, they must've not seen Gold, he was too small.

"Perhaps a malfunction?" The Femme suggested and smoothly walked around the table. "But like I said, the tox-en is highly concentrated, so I didn't feel like moving it." She drawled as Gold noticed she looked a lot like a spider, missing a few legs.

Wait- what was tox-en?

"Or you were too incapable."

"Really Starscream? You question my competence even with some missing appendages?" She waved them around.

"Or perhaps your commitment." Starscream said.

"I want to see Megatron dead just as much as you do..." She paused, "Can we kill his brother too?" She shrugged with a smile.

"Eh." Star shrugged, "I don't care. I'll open you a ground bridge and you'll send me the tox-en coordinates." He stated before a green swirl popped up.

"Of course." She nodded and walked out swiftly before the bridge closed and Screamer left.

Gold blinked, it took all his will power to understand what had happened. Tox-en doesn't sound very nice, and if these mechs want his friend and uncle dead, the they might use the tox-en to do so. He had to tell his friend!

Gold waddled out of the room heroically and searched with devotion, he made it back to the melted vent grate and pecked at the door until someone answered, if anyone was even there.

The door opened and he friend looked around, not seeing Gold on the floor. He peeped for his attention, his friend looked down and Gold ran inside.

"What the Frag-"

He looked around for something to write with. He knew how to write a bit, thanks to the tedious lessons with Soundwave and his Sire. He jumped up and down in frustration, then stopped. He had sharp claws.

He waddled over to a nice flat spot on the floor and unsheathed his claws. He peeped in attention and began to write:

Spider-

"Oh goddamn it." Megs cursed and Gold peeped again.

Spider + Starcream-

"Awesome, you can vandalize my berthroom." Meg muttered and sat on his berth, still watching.

Spider+ Starcream = Tox n

"You mean Tox-en?" Meg asked, Gold nodded.

"So?"

Gold huffed and drew and arrow to the side and to where the arrow pointed, he drew Megatron with crossed optics.

His friend snorted and held a servo to his com, "Soundwave, I am in need of translation."

Seconds later Soundwave was at the door, he looked down at gold and his visor went a bit red, either in anger or warning.

"The chicken has an interesting story." Meg said, gesturing to his writing, Soundwave looked over and seemed to grow proud as Laserbeak ejected.

"Oh dear, oh dear, Egg will have my helm." Laserbeak muttered and landed next to Gold as Soundwave knelt down, "You need to add a 's' to 'Starcream'." He advised.

"Explain." Soundwave squawked at him.

"I went for a stroll, looking for my pal-" He nodded at Megatron, "Got lost and went in a room where Starscream and a spider was-"

"Describe the spider." Soundwave requested.

"Salty."

"Physical features."

"Blackish purple with extra legs and horns."

"Name?"

"Bitch?"

"Language!" Laserbeak shrieked, "This room has corners too, if you want a time out!"

Gold shook his helm frantically, "She said that she had Tox-en and that she wanted to see Megatron dead just as much as Starscream did. Then she asked if they could kill uncle too!" Gold finished dramatically.

Soundwave looked up at Megatron, "Starscream let Arachnid onboard and conspired to kill you and perhaps Quillux with Tox-en." Soundwave translated.

"Just Tox-en?"

"Highly concentrated Tox-en." Gold said and Soundwave translated.

"You're welcome to interrogate Starscream, using whatever methods you find necessary." Megatron told Soundwave and waved him off.

He left, leaving Gold and Laserbeak behind. Megatron didn't notice so Gold reminded him with a loud peep.

"Take him back to Quillux." Meg told Laserbeak.

"Not safe." He said, using a recording.

"You can record stuff?" Gold asked, he nodded. "Can you record a 'peep' and play it back 100x speed?" He asked.

"I could..."

"Do it."

Laserbeak did so.

Megatron hastily took Gold and fled from Laserbeak, cursing while he did so. With Megatron's long strides, they reached the nest in no time. Gold gave him a peck goodbye and rejoined his Carrier and brothers.
