Waves of Starlight (TFP fanfic)

Chapter 7

Soundwave rushed to the medbay and burst in. He ran over to Knockout and silently demanded he help her. He didn't know if her just having energon would help or if she needed more.

Knockout spun around to be in shocked horror at the state of the human girl. "What in Primus happened?" He asked, taking the girl from him. "Megatron?" Looking up at Soundwave. "I'm worried about what may happen if I tried to help. I don't know anything about these creatures. Has she had any more energon? Maybe the energon will help her."

He nodded but still threw his hands around wildly. He was panicked and that didn't help anyone with trying to translate what he was saying.

"Breakdown, go get Radiowave so I can understand what the frag Soundwave is saying," Knockout yelled. He scanned the girl and it sent just more worry into his gut.

Megatron stood outside the medbay shocked to see how panicked Soundwave was about the human. He just stood there silently watching.

Breakdown ran out to fetch her while Soundwave continued to place in frantic circles, throwing his arms around in a manner no one had seen from him before.

Knockout couldn't stop going into a panic himself when he saw Soundwave's demeanor. He had never seen him like this. It was like he was looking at a completely different bot. He wanted to say something about it but didn't have the guts to. He just kept casting glances at the panicked communications officer. "I'm gonna see if I can get Ratchet to come and help me. Hopefully, he knows more about humans than me." Knockout mumbled.

Soundwave turned sharply and looked at him in disbelief. He never imagined Knockout would turn to the Autobot medic for help. He rushed over to him and stood right in front of him, throwing his arms up again.

"Do you want her to get help or not? If it is severe enough, we can't risk the time of me testing theories out. If we waste the time, you will lose her." Knockout stated, looking at him firmly. "I know nothing about humans. We originally had no intention of humans being on this ship, yet now we do. I am far unprepared for this."

Soundwave drew back and took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He then looked directly at Knockout and played back a vehicons voice, 'Lord Megatron?'

"Do you want to lose your human?" Knockout repeated.

Megatron instantly walked into the room. "Bring the medic on board. If the human is that important to Soundwave, bring him on board. Once the job is fulfilled, he will leave. The human stays on the ship. No exceptions."

Both cons jumped as neither expected him to be there.

At the same time, Radiowave came in, looking around as Breakdown came in behind her. "What's happening?" She asked

"Breakdown, contact the Autobots and have Ratchet come here. Tell them their human is injured. Only he alone is welcome on board." Megatron ordered. "Soundwave, you and me will be talking later."

Soundwave nodded and went back over to Valena as Breakdown rushed out.

"Can someone please tell me what's happening?!" Radio said, "Why does she look like she's been run over by a tank?!"

Knockout sighed as he looked at her while Megatron was still in the room. "You should ask Megatron."

Megatron glared at Knockout before looking at Radio. "I threw her. I am not in the mood for your fury, Radio."

Back at the base, all of the Autobots were trying to figure out some way to get Valena back. The screen in the base opened up to reveal an incoming transmission, which Ratchet opened up without hesitation. "Breakdown?" Ratchet asked.
