      Starscream managed to convince Silas into bringing (Y/n) out, under the guise that she needs exercise to give accurate results, pending her operation. Drew's eyes were purple as he walked out of the room, (Y/n) trailing behind him. Internally, she both thanked and cursed Starscream. At least she was out of her bonds.

      Drew looked over at (Y/n), and he smirked at how glossed over her eyes looked. She walked like a zombie, having not been on her feet in a week. Had it been a week? Or a few? (Y/n) couldn't remember. She didn't exactly have a means of tracking the time. The room she walked into looked grim. She was obviously in a decommissioned military silo, what with all the grime on the walls. Even though the place was a wreck, their technology looked pristine.

      Foot soldiers holding weapons were everywhere. Some conversing, some walking, some at the monitors. A pang of sadness and nostalgia washed over (Y/n). It was like the Vehicons back on the Nemesis. She missed them.

      Drew walked forward, and her mind - which was being controlled by him - pulled her forward behind him. A stern look was placed on her face, the only things she was allowed to do on her own were breathe and blink. Drew stopped suddenly, which prompted (Y/n) to look over. It was Silas.

      "Father." Drew nodded.

      Silas looked over. "Drew, good work. Did she put up a fight?"

      Drew shook his head. "No. Starscream was right, her energy was tanking."

      "So that mech is good for one thing. Make sure to give him an extra shard of energon as a thanks." Silas nodded to his son. "Drew, can you make sure the soldiers are doing their job?"

      Drew nodded and went to leave, but Silas held his hand up. "Leave us."

      "But father-"

      "Drew." Silas glared at his son.

      Drew gulped and obeyed, and (Y/n) felt herself rooted to the ground in front of the monitor. Once he walked away, Silas turned back to the monitor, next to (Y/n).

      "Do you understand why I'm doing all of this, (Y/n)? You're a smart halfling, you should be able to understand." Silas waited for a response, then realized he wasn't going to get one. "It's all for science, and settling a score my own father was too cowardly to set. I know about the other techno-organics origin, but what about you? Nothing in our database says anything about you."

      Silas then turned to look at (Y/n). "That's when I realized, you must have been produced in a natural way, and out of our reach. Would you know anything about that? Blink twice for yes, once for no."

      (Y/n) blinked once. What she could gather on the monitor, however, was that they were aiming to make a prototype Cybertronian, in their plan to make an army of techno-organics. It alarmed (Y/n), since two have been enough for the war, let alone the world, but a whole army? Catastrophic.

      Silas hummed. "Normally I wouldn't let you anywhere near the monitors, since I know you can probably read Cybertronian. But, I figured, you'll die on that operating table anyways, so it won't matter. Don't tell Drew, he'd be devastated."

      That alarmed (Y/n) even more - when was her operation set? Starscream better get a fucking move on with his plan to rescue her! Or, she would just have to find a way to break Drew's hold on her and escape. Yet, with so many foot soldiers, how could she do that without her kioten?

~*~*~*

      Megatron, even in his search for his bondmate, still has an army to run. Two more sets of coordinates Orion had decoded before his Prime restoration, had shown up on the map. He sent Breakdown and Knockout to retrieve one. Thankfully, Knockout managed to come back with it.

      "Excellent work, Knockout." Megatron praised the medic.

      "I live to serve, Lord Megatron." Knockout grinned, then faltered. "But, what exactly is it?"

      Megatron, instead of responding, felt angry even at Knockout's once-in-a-life cycle achievement, and shot at him with his blaster. Knockout screamed and cowered, putting the relic in front of him. The relic activated, creating a blue shield around Knockout and deflecting the shot. It had just barely missed a Vehicon.

      "Now you know." Megatron growled.

      The Vehicons sighed at the chaos. They missed (Y/n) just as much as Megatron did. At least she was nice to them. Soundwave just continued to work on finding the location of the base. He was determined to get his friend back, he couldn't let her stay a prisoner of war, or become as injured as Breakdown. Soundwave shivered at the thought.

      Soundwave then had an idea pop into his head. Suddenly, his digits worked faster than they had before, and he pulled up a government satellite. Working at a speed faster than most of the Vehicons could comprehend, it was pretty easy for him to get into the satellite to see imagery.

      Moving around a bit, he searched for every military base. Only one stuck out - it looked run down, but still had pristine vehicles. Slamming his servo on the dashboard, gaining the attention of everyone else, Soundwave immediately grabbed the coordinates, and uploaded them to every monitor.

      Megatron watched in awe as Soundwave managed to get it so quickly, although that's why he assigned Soundwave to do it, and not the Vehicons. Speaking of, they all stopped what they were doing, and began to look up the coordinates. At the same time, the second coordinates popped up. Megatron turned to Knockout and Breakdown.

      "You two, go find that relic! Decepticons, fly to the other set of coordinates! Your commander is being held there!" Megatron barked out orders.

      Soundwave let Knockout and Breakdown through the groundbridge, then switched the coordinates and allowed the Vehicons to flood through, Megatron being the last to run in.

~*~*~*

      Drew and Silas led (Y/n) to the upper part of the hangar to oversee the T-cog fusion. Starscream had appeared at some point, and stood next to the three people.

      "Energon. It will do wonders for our future army." Starscream grinned.

      In her head, (Y/n) began to curse Starscream even more. In the corner of her eye, she saw Silas look up at Starscream, who had laughed nervously.

      "Your future army." Starscream then attempted to save his ass by continuing to speak. "In fact, we are mere moments from beholding the miracle of transformation!"

      (Y/n) felt dread take over. Once this prototype was up and running, she'd be bound to this thing in the hopes of creating an army for Silas. Not to mention what Drew was going to do, he'd taken an almost obsessive liking to her. Silas told her earlier not to tell Drew, but it's not like she could.

      However, a loud bang on the front door caught everyone's attention. After a few more, and some distant energon shots in the background, (Y/n) felt relief and happiness wash over her. Megatron had come to save her!

      Finally, the door burst open and out stepped Bumblebee, Megatron right behind him. (Y/n) found that weird, but taking another once over at the T-cog, she noticed how yellow it looked. The T-cog was Bumblebee's!

      Megatron looked around, then spotted (Y/n), his spark aching. "Scout, fetch your T-cog and leave. Troops! Annihilate the human foot soldiers and their base! Destroy everything! I'm taking (Y/n) for myself."
