Transformers Prime: Long Lost Spark.

Decepticon Once Again

Arcee's pov.

Watching Optimus and T/N follow Megatron through his ground bridge makes are sparks sink... It was like both of them forgot who they were. The way he was protecting Megatron like he didn't manipulate him, control him... And now Megatron has both of them. My comm activities as Ratchet speaks. "you did it! Dark Energon readings have dwindled down to almost nothing. Storms and tornadoes have vanished... What..." the excitement in his voice fades away as he fears for what's coming. "where's T/N and Optimus?" falling to my knees my voice cracks as I speak. "gone... Gone with Megatron..." Bumblebee and Bulkhead walk to me as ratchet speaks... "oh no... I feared this would happen..." Ratchet clears his throat and speaks again. "I'm opening a ground bridge... Return to bass and I will explain." as a ground bridge opens I can't help but feel... Alone again...

T/N's pov.

After walking out of the bridge Megatrons forces were on edge. Ready to do something, I felt my joints ready to transform my arms into their Cannons. Megatron raises his hand and steps in front of me... And Optimus... Prime. "is that any way to treat long lost, friends?" after saying that every bot looks at each other in confusion and goes back to what they were doing before.

what does he mean by 'long-lost friends'? What happened? Before I could continue my thoughts Megatron places a hand on my shoulder. Looking up at him, he smiles at me, and in the friendliest tone I've heard from Megatron he says. "T/N, I need you to lead Orian to medical. You two may have suffered some heavy damage. I will join you shortly. " confusingly nodded my head and look down slightly. "y-yes Lord Megatron." looking at Orian I lift my arm in the direction of the door, and with an annoyed tone I say. "this way Orian..."

Jack's pov

After we hear what happened to Optimus and T/N, Ratchet started t explain why Optimus gave me... And why he did do it, he wasn't planning on coming back, and this key... The key to Vector Sigma can somehow, maybe bring Optimus to his senses. But as for now he somehow reverted to his previous identity Orion pax... T/N though, Ratchet can't wrap his head around it. I've seen him protect us fought for the Autobots... he wouldn't just switch sides on the fly like that, At least I hope not...

Looking at Arcee though, she's taking it the hardest. And it's hard to see her like this, she's usually so headstrong but now. Seeing her looking at the ground with her arms crossed looking so defeated... Unsure of what to do next. Looking down at the key I sigh and hope we can figure out a plan.

T/N pov.

Lying down on a metal bed with a tube connected to the side of my head, the only thing I can think of is what happened to me? How long was I gone? Looking at Knockout typing away on his computer, he takes glances at me. Almost like he's expecting me to do something and Breakdown is even more on edge. And the eye patch is new, what happened to him?

Looking back to knockout I push myself up and rest on my elbows. "are we done Knockout? Not sure what happened but I feel fine." he is skeptical and looks at Breakdown before looking back to me. "you don't appear to have anything wrong but... I would remain on the ship, just to be safe." nodding my head I sit up and let my leg dangle as I grabbed the tube and look at Knockout giving me the okay to pull it. As I pull it off both of them get slightly defensive. "what's got your motors spinning?" hearing the genuine confusion in my voice seems to calm their defenses.

Knockout clears his throat and walks to me. He puts a hand on my shoulder and looks at me. "what do you remember?" I give him a confused look as I open my mouth to speak "okay... I... Um... Uh..." closing my mouth I try to remember but my memory core starts drawing a blank. Rubbing my faceplate I leab forward and rest my elbows on my knees. "I... I don't know Knockout... I... I'm drawing a blank here..." Knockout crosses his arms and rubs his chin as he looks at me. "do you remember the Space bridge?"

Lowering my arm I rest it on my knee and look up at the two and node head, "ya why?" Knockout hums and looks down slightly. "do you remember what happened after the Space Bridge exploded?" I give him a questionable look as I rub the back of my head gasket. "I... I don't remember it exploding..."

"tell me what you do remember then." nodding my head I put my hands together and start thinking. "well, I was fighting the Autobots alongside Megatron, and shortly after that the Autobots retreated... And then..." sighing I look at Knockout. "and then... Nothing, my memory core dros a blank..." sitting up I look down as I put my hand on the metal bed. "but... There's something I Don't get... How did I end up in that dome thing?" shacking my head I sigh. "doesn't matter..." sitting up I give Knockout and Breakdown a smirk. "I'm back where I belong right?" Breakdown finally smirks instead of giving me a cold stair and puts his arm around my shoulder. "you got that right!"

"as happy as I am, T/N does need some time to rest. You do remember where your quarters are right?" hears the joking tone come from his voice I lightly chuckle and get off the metal.  bed. "yes, that I remember." walking out of the room I see two Vehicons standing at the door waiting for me. "... Can I help you two?" one of the Vehicons steps forward. "lord Megatron wishes for you to follow us to your quarters." giving them a confused look I cross my arms. "I know where my Quarters are. knockout all ready told me to go and re-" the second vehicon steps forward and speaks in a demanding tone. "that's an order!"

taking a step forward I get close to the vehicon and slightly turn my head. "care to repeat that... Grunt?" hearing the anger in my voice the Vehicon glances at the other. "th... That's an... Order f-from Lord M-megatron..." putting a hand on his shoulder a squeeze it, he drops to a knee and whins in pain. "if you ever talk to me like that again..." transforming my free hand to its Energon Blade I pause for a moment after seeing that it's Purple. after that, I slowly bring it to the side of his faceplate. "and I mean ever again. I'll rip your spark out and shove it down your throat! Do I make myself clear?"

The Vehicon quickly nodes his head as I deactivate my Energon blade and pat his shoulder. "good, tell Lord Megatron if he needs me I'll be in my quarters." walking away from the Vehicons I look down at my hand and clench it. Why was my Blade Purple? It was always Blue... Maybe I can ask Knockout later. "or you could ask me?" I quickly spin around but see no bot standing behind me. "who said that?... Hello?" shacking my head I blink my Optics a few times before rubbing my faceplate. "oh Primus... Maybe Knockout was right... I just need some rest..."

No bots pov.

T/N sighs and shakes his head, turning around he rubs the back of his head as he continues walking. In side Knockouts, medical bay Megatron walks in with his arms crossed behind him. "what is the condition of my sco-... Of T/N?" Knockout looks up from his handheld device and looks at Megatron. "it's as if his memory banks from the space bridge till now have been, somehow deleted." popping up T/N scans on his main computer he points at T/N brain scan. "as you can see by the two brain waves Unicron as in control of his mind. But if we continue down the waves they both sporadically jump."

Megatron crosses his arms and hums. "when Optimus shot that beam at Unicron's Spark I felt it too. It was as if my very mind was breaking..." Megatron looks at Knockout with a questionable look. "if this happened to T/N, then why did it not happen to me?" Knockout rubs his chin and thinks for a moment. "I am unsure, perhaps I could do some test but for the time being I don't have an answer." Megatron lowers his arms and walks to the entrance. "I suggest you do that Knockout before T/N somehow regains his memories, he has before."

"And what of Orion Pax?" Megatron smirks and glances at Knockout. "Orion is decrypting Autobot files for his new Team. And when the time comes for both of their exterminations..." Megatron turns around and rais his arm as his blade shoots out. "I will deal with it personality"
