Megatron's twin

132: Part 1- Party!

So after a lot of blackmail on everyone's part, Meg finally gave in to the idea of a party. Though he still refused to share his nightmare fuel.

So I decided to invite the Autobots, since no one else could be bothered. I made my way over to their base quickly and entered without knocking, they seemed rather relaxed.

"Oh hey, did you bring Bee?" Smoke asked.

"Nah, he still with Knockout, anyway, we're throwing a peace party-"

"Meg allowed that?" Arcee snorted.

"Not really, there was blackmail involved." I said as I caught Oppy giving me a rather dreamy look but Ratchet kicked his shin and he snapped out of it. "You guys are invited!" I added.

"Meg allowed that?" Arcee repeated.

I snorted, "No, he doesn't know."

"Then should we go?" Bulk asked questioningly.

"Anything that pisses of Megatron is a must." Wheeljack said. Magnus nodded.

"Great!" I said and wrote down the coordinates to the island.

"Is it populated?" Oppy asked.

"Nah, Soundwave made sure." I added under his suspicious glance.

"Can we come?" Miko asked.

"In the enviroment of like, two hundred drunk idiots?" I asked.

"No." Ratchet finished.

"Great!" Smoke said.

"Aw." Miko went.

"The chickens will be there." I added to Trion, he seemed to lighten up.

"Wait-" Ratchet started.

"I'm coming." Alphy said and got up with surprising grace. Optimus looked at the floor like he regretted his existence. He might not want to see the geezer attempt to dance.

"Why can the chickens go and not us?" Miko asked.

"I dunno- Wait! Maybe because they can breathe fire." I suggested.

Miko huffed, "Discrimination at it's finest." She said while I wrote down the times.

You're not on the ship. Meg started.

I snorted, Nope, not that it matters. I said and blocked the bond. "So, are any of you gonna stay sober?" I asked.

Ratchet raised his servo, so did Magnus. Then Ratchet raised Oppy's arm for him.

"Oh, congrats on the dead sparkling." Smoke said, then realized how bad that sounded, "Wait-"

"It's fine, Bee said the same." I told him and got a message from Soundwave, "Sound needs help setting up, anyone want to help?" I asked.

"Yup." Said Smoke, Wheeljack and Oppy."

"Coolio, I'll get a bridge sorted." And I did, in under a minute we were on the island. Bee was there too, seeming to have already invited by KO.

Soundwave glared at the visitors, "It's only fair." I said as Optimus wandered over to Bumblebee and started a lecture about unsafe driving, which Knockout somehow managed to get included on.

The lecture was cut short when Bee rushed over to Darksteel and Skylynx, joined by Smoke.

We got to work stetting up some crates for seats and tables, Laserbeak got tangled in some fairy lights.

Once we finished, we already had some high grade (not Oppy) and waited for the others to arrive, they came all over the place.

Magnus helped Trion find a seat next to Oppy and made sure to look out for illegal activities. Until he was distracted by Predaking. He got up to walk over.

"Hold up." I started and stopped him.

"What"?

"You're just gonna walk over there without grabbing him some energon?" I asked.

"Good point." He muttered and wandered off to the makeshift bar.

Meanwhile, Wheeljack was trying to kiss Ratchet but his forehelm was getting in the way, and Ratch was sober.

It was so chaotic, nobody noticed Meg stroll in. He looked like he was about to yell but seemed to think the better of it, simply sitting next to Soundwave, but recoiling when he noticed how close Oppy was. Three meters or so, to his left.

So in my half sober, half drunken state, I wanted to piss him off. I squashed myself between the two and slapped Oppy's thigh.

"I though you had a higher tolerance?" Meg asked as he tried not to stare as I caressed Op's thigh.

Oppy's cooling system was working overtime.

"I only had like-" I counted my digits, "Three?" I suggested and took some spark mix just in case. I moved my servo a little higher.

Oppy let out a squeak before nodding somewhere, "The chickens are making a sacrificial pit." He said. It was totally a distraction, but I looked anyway. So did Meg.

They had made a flaming circle and were trying to tie up Trion.

"Wait." Meg started and Soundwave sat up in surprise.

"Yup, found him on Earth." I said proudly.

"Starscream told me that he was dead!" Meg said.

"When was anything Starscream said accurate?" Optimus asked as he sipped some high grade.

Meg got up.

"No killing." I said.

"Chill, just need to ask him something." Meg muttered and got up, Soundwave seemed to be snickering. We watched protectively as Meg talked with him as the chickens tied him up. Trion got something out of his chassis and handed it to Meg.

He came back looking awfully smug.

"Copy this." He told Soundwave. He extended his tentacles greedily.

Optimus seemed to be eyeing it.

"Does it look similar?" Meg asked him.

"Yes." Oppy said, trying to work it out.

"Hmm, I found it in Iacon a while ago." Meg's words took on a cheery tone. "I asked Trion to keep it for safe keeping-"

"Why?" I asked.

"We knew each other." Meg said.

"Where did you find it?" Oppy asked fearfully.

"I found it under a self, secton 3-b."

At that moment, something seemed to click in Oppy's helm. He made a rapid dash for it, lunging over me. But I thought I was a hug, so I hugged him. "No-"

Meg seemed to be snickering.

"What is it?" I asked, as Oppy looked on in horror. Maybe he had a cube of high grade.

Meg gently took the ancient datapad from Soundwave and switched in on so the title could be read. "Orion's diary." With self illustrated sparkles and hearts surrounding it.

Oppy dissolved in embarrassment.
