Son of the Unicron ~ [Transformers Prime - Megastar]

11 - Fun

No one's POV

Starscream: "No, Randy, I'm not going to let you eat knockout."

The little scraplet on Starscream's shoulder plate shreeked, others joined in after a couple of seconds, and Starscream sighed.

Starscream: "No, none of you can eat alive bots, we need 'em, no Liam, you can't get a taste of Predaking!" 

Shouted the Seeker at another scraplet before getting up from his berth, walking out of the room while followed by the pack of little metallic spheres that tapped on the floor with their thin limbs.

Starscream: "And mostly, none of you can have a taste of Megatron. If any of you bites one piece off him, I'll put them in timeout, and you know what timeout means!"

Kept on the Seeker, walking around with those creatures following closely, until he found himself in the MedBay, with Predaking helping Knockout discard some offline frames.

Knockout: "Oh, Starscream, how are you doing? I was on my way to send you these corpses bu-"

Starscream: "Yes, go on."

He didn't even need to finish the sentence before all the scraplets launched themselves on the pile of scrap metal. As Knockout looked in horror at the little creatures chewing on the corpses, Starscream walked up to the pile himself and suddenly shoved his servo in the amount of metal, dragging out an arm.
When Starscream started biting pieces of metal off it, Knockout shouted.

Knockout: "YOU COULD DO THAT!?"

Starscream: "...yeah? I've got hunger as well, you know? Cannibalism is not that big of a deal, ain't it?"

Knockout: "...I-I suppose...?"

The medic was confused, and the predacon standing behind him sniffed the air before growling slightly.

Predaking: "Lord Megatron is coming here."

And while the dragon quickly walked out of the medbay, Knockout looked at the Seeker.

Knockout: "I guess he's coming for his daily dose of dark energon"

Said the medic, his expression teasy and childish, but Starscream didn't notice it at all. He was very interested in Megatron's great entrance from the large door.

Megatron: "Starscream, you're here too, how convenient"

Both the Seeker and the medic looked at each other wondering what he was talking about, while Megatron served himself on the Dark Energon doses already prepared, completely ignoring the heavy burden that was the knowledge of where that Dark Energon came from.

Starscream: "...how so, Master?"

After Megatron consumed his Dark Energon cube, he looked at both Decepticons.

Megatron: "Starscream has been extremely useful in the last weeks, so I was thinking of allowing a night off to the army, you know, high grade, music, a bit of fun."

His words lingered in the air until Knockout smiled like a savage.

Knockout: "I'd be honored to prepare such an event, my Lord! Please let me handle the organization!"

Megatron: "That is the reason I'm telling both of you, and I hope we'll be able to take our processors off this stressing situation that is the war. This said, I wish you a good day."

Megatron's words were followed by his steps until he walked out and the doors slid shut.
