Starscream wanted to just crawl in a small hole and disappear forever. She had fragged up so bad that she may have accidentally doomed the future. She was so distracted by the fact she was going to fight Soundwave that she didn't think of the consequences that might come with it. These were all the things that flooded her processor as she, Swindle, and Soundwave made their way back to Vos.
Starscream: *In her mind* Why?! Why?! WHY?! WHY ME?!
Starscream and Soundwave arrived at Vos Central Tower as they landed on the flight deck and transformed into robot mode. Starscream rubbed her temples as she tried to calm her aching processor. She turned to Soundwave and tried to think of a way to get him off her back.
Starscream: Soundwave...
As soon as she said that, Soundwave stood at attention. It was almost like how he reacted when Megatron called his name. It felt so weird. The old Starscream might have been all giddy with excitement, but the current Starscream was having none of it. Well, she might as well rip the optic patch out and get it over with.
Starscream: Okay. I know that you think that I'm worthy of your loyalty... but I think that it would be for the better good that... well...
Unfortunately, Starscream didn't get to finish as she heard a familiar voice coming from around the corner.
Jetfire: Starscream, were back!
Starscream: *Groans* Really?! Now?! *Sighs* Soundwave, stay here. I'll be right back.
Soundwave nodded as Starscream walked away. When she reached her destination, she found not only Jetfire but Skywarp and Thundercracker there too.
Starscream: This better be important! I was just in the middle of something!
Skywarp: *Sarcastic* Wow. Nice to see you too, scream. And here I thought we were all friends.
Thundercracker: Ignore him. He's upset that someone sitting behind him kept kicking at his wings, and now he's cranky.
Skywarp mumbled something as he rubbed his sore wings.
Jetfire: Well, we just got back from Kaon, and there's someone who wants to speak with you.
Starscream: Look, I have a mountain of files and data pads to get through. I just got back from a fight, and I don't have the energy to deal with whatever the bot wants to talk to me about.
Jetfire: I'm sure that it won't take long... wait, you go into a fight?!
Starscream: I don't want to explain it. Just tell the bot to make an appointment at the front. That is, if Cloudcover is back from his energon break.
Thundercracker: Well, here's the thing. The bot told us that it was of the utmost importance that he needed to speak with you.
Skywarp: Yeah. Plus, he's really scary looking.
Starscream: I don't care if he looks like Trypticon himself! Tell him to wait another day so I can get what I was doing over with, and then I can go back to work!
???: Oh, but I insist. It won't take long. Starscream, Lord of Vos
She froze. Starscream felt like her knees had gone weak and that she was going to collapse. That familiar, gravelly voice had sent fear down her throat. No... no... it couldn't be. Her friends didn't notice the rising fear in her face as Thundercracker turned around.
Thundercracker: Oh, speak of the Terrorcon, that would be him. When he saw us at the show, he was practically begging to speak with you since we were all acquainted and all.
