Transformers: Decepticons in Disguise

Prologue - Deliver us

(Play the song above for effect)

A new age has has dawned.

3 years after the dissolvement of the Decepticons, who are now returning to Cybertron having served their sentences, and Cybertron is restored to its former glory. But turmoil rocks the planet as Decepticons riot against the segregation and continued abuse from the Autobots. The council has degreed as such, despite their supposedly non-biased views. Decepticons are now 2nd class citizens, but this not because of their weakness but of their strength.

The Autobots are afraid.

And they are only growing in numbers as former prisoners, now released, return to Cybertron hoping to start new lives. Away from war and suffering. But they will find that almost nothing has changed. Some of these prisoners still remain imprisoned though. One of these prisons is a mining prison on a massive asteroid orbiting Cybertron.

The overseer and another figure looks out at the Decepticon war prisoners as they toil away, mining ore for the Autobots.

(Italics = Lyrics to song above)
(Bold = Changed Lyrics)

Mud!
Sand!
Water!
Straw!
Faster!
Mud and lift!
Sand and pull!
Water and raise up!
Straw!
Faster!

Little does the overseer know, that the figure he is host to is also a Decepticon.

"I apologise for the noise Commandant, but they always seem to do this and I never know why. But it annoys me nonetheless." The overseer said.

"They are not just making noise." The figure emerges from the shadows revealing himself as a legendary Decepticon commander. "They are singing." (Y/N) said.

They were singing about him.

With the sting of the whip on my shoulder
With the salt of my sweat on my brow
(Y/N), Commander on high, can you hear your people cry?
Help us now
This dark hour

A blue tear fell down (Y/N)'s optics. How could his people be reduced to this?

Deliver us
Hear our call, deliver us
Lord of all, remember us
Here in this burning sand
Deliver us
There's a land You promised us
Deliver us to the Promised Land

(Y/N) journeyed down to the mines where his fellow Decepticons were working. He pitied them, but he could do nothing. He then saw a femme Decepticon with a small sparkling.

ילדי הטוב והרך
אל תירא ואל תפחד

My son, I have nothing I can give
But this chance that you may live
I pray we'll meet again if He will

She then ran off with the sparkling and a basket. They were heading for a stream. (Y/N) headed after them.

Deliver us (deliver us)
Hear our prayer, deliver us
From despair, these years of slavery
Grown too cruel to stand
Deliver us
There's a land You promised us
Deliver us from the bondage
And deliver us to the Promised Land

She then placed her sparkling in the basket and knelt up by the river.

Hush now my baby, be still, love, don't cry
Sleep as you're rocked by the stream
Sleep and remember my last lullaby
So I'll be with you when you dream

River, oh, river, flow gently for me
Such precious cargo you bear
Do you know somewhere he can live free?
River, deliver him there

She then let go, sending the basket down the stream. This broke (Y/N). But before going after it he realised that wherever the sparkling ended up it would be better than living its first years as a slave.

Hee-eee
Hee-eee

(Y/N) then saw another sparkling that he didn't notice who was sitting next to the mother.

Brother, you're safe now and safe may you stay
For I have a prayer just for you
Grow, baby brother, come back someday
He will deliver you, too

She then looked at (Y/N). (Y/N) then came to where his people were working. Upon seeing him they knelt down and sang their last verse.

Deliver us
Your a shepherd sent to shepherd us
To deliver us to the Promised Land
Deliver us to the Promised Land
Deliver us

As (Y/N) wandered towards his ship he vowed that one day he would free everyone in this work camp.

He would deliver them, from their suffering.
