Black. It was all Smokescreen and Tinker saw. Their eyes started to open to a moving floor, with a pounding headache that was exploding in their brainpan. "Wha?"

"Quiet!" a con shouted before punching Smokescreen. They were being dragged ... by cons! He felt himself being left up and his legs being bound. His legs' cuffs had chains attach to the floor. His eyes looked up as his head hung. His vison was a blur, but he could see a blue, dark green, lemon yellow, and a bit of white a few feet to his left.

"Tinker?" Smokescreen groaned in a whispered.

"Quiet!" A con stabbed something against Smokescreen's side. It didn't open a wound ... but it sure hurt.

"AAAAH!"

Tinker's azure eyes were open, but they flew open to Smokescreen's cries. His head snapped to his comrade. "Smokescreen!" he cried.

"You be quiet, or you'll get the same as he's getting," a con hissed.

"Leave ... him ... alone!" Tinker thrashed his legs and tugged at the cuffs at his wrists.

"I SAID BE QUIET!" Another con cracked a whip against Tinker's face. He felt a sharp pain entering from his eye to his mouth. Energon streamed and dripped down his face. One eye stayed open.

"Tinker!" A roaring rage was now booming in Smokescreen's mind ... with the headache. His face filled with fury. He didn't believe all Decepticons were monster, not even Megatron. Not after seeing him with his family when he was twelve at least. But these cons he felt no shame or pity for.

He glanced around and saw no other Autobot prisoners. Letting himself contrate, he closed his eyes and focused his power. The bounds on both Tinker and Smokescreen's legs and wrists broke and attacked the Decepticons. After Smokescreen healed Tinker's face, the two bolted to the escape pods without a second thought. Avoiding the eyesight of the cons by being invisible, they safely made it to the pods. Smokescreen shrunk Tinker to fit in his hand so they could ride together. It wasn't long after lunching the craft before their eyes fell, and slumber took over.
