They were silent for a few minutes as they stared at the sparkling. Knockout looked at Starscream and smiled nervously. They then looked at Soundwave who stared at them blankly and clenched his servos tightly.
"It is illogical that either of you were intelligent enough to do this to Lord Megatron." Shockwave said as he turned to the computer and started typing.
"You what?!" Starscream screeched in disbelief. "I'll have you know we are highly intelligent!" He yelled angrily.
The scientist didn't respond as he worked. Megatron jumped down from the berth and ran over to them. The sparkling looked up at the two and glared before kicking their legs.
"Ow! Watch the paint!" Knockout yelled and moved away.
"Bad!" The sparkling yelled as he kicked Starscream's leg. "Bad con! Bad!" He shouted.
"Master stop!" The seeker said as he tried to get away. The sparkling continued to kick the two.
"We should teach him some manners." Knockout muttered and pushed him away from the seeker. The little warlord fell over and blinked in surprise. He looking up at them with tears in his optics as he glared. Soundwave glanced at them and watched silently.
"You big meany." He muttered as he choked back a sob. The two stared at him then each other. Maybe they could teach him a few things about respecting them.
"My apologies... master." Starscream said as he smiled wickedly and reached for him. The sparkling whimpered fearfully and stared up at them.
The seeker suddenly yelped in surprise as he was flung back against the wall. Knockout looked over and saw that Soundwave had smacked the other con away. The communication specialist attached a tentacle to Knockout's chest plate, and threw him into the seeker. He walked to the cons and towered over them. He clenched his servos tightly and electrocuted the two. He stopped after a moment and stared down at them.
"Alright... we get it." Knockout grunted as he sat up. Soundwave smacked him again and walked back to the sparkling.
Megatron looked up at him and whimpered fearfully as he backed away. Soundwave crouched down and stared at him. The two just stared at each other for a while as they had a silent conversation.
The other two cons watched them then looked at each other as they hesitantly got up. The sparkling smiled brightly and jumped to his peds. Soundwave slowly stood up and stared them down. He then quietly walked over to the computer and helped Shockwave with the research.
"I'm guessing he won't let us teach the little brat a lesson." Knockout muttered and looked at the other con.
"We'll see." Starscream muttered and walked out of the room.

Soundwave informed the cons of their leaders predicament and told them to do as the sparkling commanded. They were confused at first but didn't question the communication specialist. Who would?
Megatron wandered the halls aimlessly and frowned as he looked up at the high ceiling. Why was it so big here? He narrowed his little optics and continued walking around. He knew he was headed somewhere, but he couldn't remember. He stopped suddenly at a four way area and looked down each hall. The sparkling stood in the middle and scanned the halls again. He stared up at the ceiling and whimpered quietly. He was lost.
"Swndwa?" He called and looked around again. The halls were silent. He huffed and folded his arms as he pouted.
"Stawcweam!" He yelled and glared at the empty halls. "Norckout!" He shouted and looked around. He huffed angrily and saw a vehicon walk towards him.
"Lord Megatron." He muttered and the sparkling kicked his leg.
"Whas youw name?" He huffed and kicked him again. The vehicon just stood there and stared at him as he kicked him.
"My designation is P3t3r." He said as he watched him, and winced a little.
"I want energon! I want energon!" He yelled angrily as he kicked him.
"Yes Lord Megatron." He mumbled and walked off as the sparkling followed and kicked him. He sighed forcefully and went into the energon storage room. He found a small cube and crushed it for the sparkling then wandered off.
"I don't wan dis one!" He yelled and plopped on the floor as he huffed angrily. He sat there for a moment then decided to eat it anyway. He looked around the room for a while and he realized what he was looking for. Dark energon.
"Dawk enewgon." He muttered and looked around. "Hewe enewgon." He called as if it was a kitten. He crawled around looking for it.
"Um... Lord Megatron?" Starscream asked as he watched him. The sparkling looked up at him and narrowed his eyes.
"I wan dawk enewgon!" He yelled angrily and stomped his ped as he stood. "I wan it now!" He shouted.
"I... um... don't know where it is. Soundwave has hidden it for some reason." He mumbled. The sparkling glared darkly and ran at him. He kicked him in the legs and yelled angrily.
"Ow! Stop it!" Starscream hissed and backed away. The sparkling glared and clenched his servos tightly. He thought for a few minutes and looked at his servos. He remembered something and smiled wickedly as he activated his blaster.
"Let's pway." He said as he smiled mischievously. Starscream paled and backed out of the room.
"N-Now now... let's not do something we might regret." He stuttered and continued to walk backwards.
"I wanna pway!" He said and fired at him. Starscream yelped and dodged before turning and running down the hall. Megatron laughed maniacally and ran after him as he fired.
"Master stop!" He yelled as he swerved around the corner. Some vehicons watched the seeker run passed and didn't see the sparkling. Megatron laughed maniacally and shot them then went after the seeker.
"Hold still Stawcweam!" He yelled angrily and fired at him. The con yelped and barely dodged it. He ran faster and constantly told the sparkling to stop.
"I don't like this game anymore!" He yelled as he stumbled and slid around another corner. He tripped and stumbled as he gained his footing. Knockout was reading a data pad as he turned the corner.
"Run!" Starscream yelled as he zoomed passed him. Knockout blinked in surprise as the seeker ran and he furrowed his optic ridges. He yelped as a blast hit by his helm and he looked at the little warlord as he laughed maniacally.
"Oh scap." He muttered and ran for it as he dropped the data pad. He ran as the sparkling shot at him. The con ducked as the sparkling blasted at his helm.
"Scraaaaaaap!!!!" He yelled as he slid around another corner.
Megatron laughed maniacally and ran after them as he shot rapidly. They turned another corner and stopped suddenly as they saw Soundwave. The two cons ran passed him as they heard the sparkling. Megatron laughed hysterically as he turned the corner then froze. He stared at the communication specialist and slowly lowered his cannon. Soundwave stared down at him and they seemed to be having a silent conversation.
"No!" He shouted and stomped his ped angrily. "I wanna pway! I wan dawk enewgon!" He yelled. Soundwave didn't move as he stared at him. The sparkling huffed angrily and folded his arms as he pouted.
"No." He mumbled and glared at him. Soundwave stood taller and pointed at him.
"No!" He shouted. The con stepped closer and looked down at him. The sparkling blinked a couple times and hung his helm. He stared at the floor and sniffed.
"Sowy Swndwa..." he mumbled then looked up at him. The con started walking away and the sparkling ran after him.
Megatron walked by his side and looked at his long thin digits. The little warlord reached up and held his servo. Soundwave stopped suddenly and looked at him. The sparkling smiled and Soundwave stared at him for a moment before walking off, letting the little one hold his servo.
