Saving Light

Chapter 2: Prisoner

Two years later...

The young Prime was all curled up in a ball in a corner of her cell. Oh, how her wings ach to feel the wind how her entire body wishes she was free. She was surprised that her uncle Megaton has still kept her alive and not dead.

"My Lord, you have requested me?" Asked the tall, logical, purple scientist.

"I have Shockwave, follow me." Megaton led Shockwave to the Decepticon's warships cells.

"You know that I have Prime's decedent here, do you?" The scientist shook his helm as he continued to follow the warlord.

"No, my liege but now I do."

"You can do what you please with her. I've heard you want to conduct experiments on her kind of species." Shockwave nodded as they drew near Firestar's cell. When they peaked through the bars, she wasn't in sight just a pitch-black cell.

"If I may ask my liege, where is she?" As he turn his helm to face Megaton, he lift his optic brows and lifted his chin. When the purple mech turn his one optic to face the cell once more he saw two pricing glowing blue optics as the shadow of her wings began to spread out to show the menace of her presence. The Prime rotated herself for being upside down and landed on her feet, she began to walk towards them but was only an inch away from the bars since there were chains holding her back.

"What do you want bucket head? I've told you that I won't do none of your bidding!" The young Prime stated with anger in her voice.

"I'm not here to bride you to my commands. I'm here to show our scientist what he will be working with." He said as he held out his servor to present the purple mech to Firestar. She just stared at him then back at the War Lord.

"I won't follow or do anything he wishes!" She responded coldly to him as she glared her teeth.

"I guess you don't have a choice." The Prime brought out her tail and swung it at the bars, which shocked her instantly on impact. Firestar stepped back.

"I hate you more than words can express." She exclaimed just as Megaton left, Shockwave was left behind as he pulled out the keys to her cell along with a taser.

"You won't feel a thing." He said as Firestar backed herself up the wall to try and keep away from the mad scientist. But Shockwave pinned her to the wall and tased her as darkness consumed her vision. Firestar woke up from her mini coma to see she wasn't in her cell no more. As she looked around, she saw many berths, monitors, and data pads. She tried to sit up but struggled, she has chained up yet again.

"I see you are trying to break loose." Shockwave announced as he walked in this new room Firestar was in.

"What do you think I'm trying to do?" The Prime said in sarcasm while she kept trying to break free, she felt something around her neck that was thick and bothersome. Shockwave got on a monitor and typed a few things before walking up to her berth.

"You are in my laboratory, Miss. Firestar. And there are certain rules that apply here. For starters.." He said as he unchained the contained Firestar. Once she was free, she punched the scientist and made a run for it. The young Prime was shocked that no con was trying to stop her, until she made it outside, she jumped off the landing deck of the warship and flew above it before something shocked her. Darkness took over her vision once more as she fell back on the landing deck. Shockwave was following her when she made a run for it but he knew that she wouldn't get far. He held a chain attached to a neck ring and made his way back to the lab. Firestar woke up as she was being dragged behind Shockwave.

"You didn't allow me to finish. That neck ring you have around your neck is a sensor. This means if you try to leave the deception war ship's signal rage. You get shocked." He said as Firestar tried to transform into her human form to get loose from the ring. But Shockwave had a theory she was going to do that. Once they got to his lab, he hooked the chain to the wall near a berth. The young Prime felt like a chained dog, as she didn't even bother trying to break the chain.

"The neck ring adjusts to your size, so there is no escape. Even in your human form." He said as he got real close to the femme. The femme looked him dead into his one optic he placed his only servo in the space between her and the neck ring to get ahold of her neck.

"If you don't want to have this neck ring around your neck. I suggest you do the logical thing, and behave." Was his last words before he let go, Firestar only glared at him.

"What kind of experiments do you intend to do with me?" She said as she looked at the scientist's every move as he walked back to his monitor.

"For starts, you have been in that cell for two years with no medical check." The Prime snarled, a check-up with Knockout could not be fun. After two minutes, Knockout made his entrance to the lab.

"Giving a check-up to the Prime's daughter. What a moment!" He exclaimed as he walked near the chained-up femme. Knockout carefully run his servers against her cheek, before Firestar turn her helm and almost bit his servo.

"I thought you had her contain Shockwave."

"I do, but you went past a boundary that only a mech like you would pass." Knockout only hmph in announce, and got to work. The check-up was going well, since the Prime was lying down on the berth, following the orders from the doctor. Knockout wanted to test if she really was powerless the vehicons say she was since Shockwave was distracted and analyzing the data of Firestar's health. He transformed his servo into a saw before he made contact with her frame. Firestar was on one of her knees and her tail around his neck.

"UGH! Let me go you stubborn femme!" Complained and coughed Knockout. He began swinging his saw to try and cut her tail off, but the young Prime tighten her grip.

"Firestar, that's enough. I saw what he did." Shockwave said as he was right behind the strangling doc. Once the Prime let him loose, he dropped to the floor.

"Shockwave, she is ruthless. You should better tame her."

"I'm no animal, Knockout." The Prime spoke. As she straighten herself up as she was still on her knees and chained up to the wall.

"But you act like one, anyways Shockwave. The data for Firestar's health is done, can I get going." He said, before speed walking to the exit of the lab without hearing Shockwave's response.

"Hmm," Firestar turned her helm to face the logical scientist, he was reading a data pad.

"By the looks of it, you aren't in good condition Miss. Firestar." He said as he walked over to a table that held many chemical substances. He was mixing a few things here and there, as for the Prime she sat down on the berth and watched from afar. When Shockwave was done, he poured the completed substance into a syringe and turned to face the Prime.

"What are you going to do with that??" The Prime stated before getting all tense, she really never liked the idea of needles.

"This formula will help you fall in stasis. Based on your data health, you hadn't been in stasis for two years and a half. I can't do anything major till you are fully healthy. I know the two cures for this kind of problem, but I went with the logical cure." He said as he walked over to the frightened Prime. Firestar got in a somewhat battle stance but she was pinned down on the berth by the logical scientist that injected the substance into her arm. Firestar had the fire in her optics as she started to kick and punch. Once the mixture was in your energon stream, her body fell limb and fell into stasis. Shockwave left her there and then turned around to a monitor to start working on his many experiments.
